i play games quite alot and have a gamer score of just under 20 thousand . This guy needs to get a life because that is plain pathetic. The amount of time he must spend playimg games wow he needs to discover the femail species

FunAndGun4940d ago

You know, someone could say the same thing about your 20,000 score.

Someone who doesn't play games at all could tell you to get a life.

hennessey864940d ago

thers a big difference between 20000 and 500000 isnt there but yes a none gamer could tell me to get a life at which point id tell him to buy a console because hes missing out

MadMan004940d ago

If you knew the guy you would know he actually has a GF and she's not even that bad lookin, so GTFO, thanks.

jimsondanet4940d ago

all work an no play makes stallion a dull boy

snipes1014940d ago

I find it funny that youre on a gaming website dissing someone for playing too much. So he plays more than you, who cares. You're probably sitting home alone on fridays beating it while he's getting action from his gf and youre mad hahaha.

SirRunic4939d ago

Femail? I think you mean female buddy.

but that's not for me, i game like 4 hours a day IF the outside world allows me I'm level 12 (almost on ps3) and only have 1500 on xbox, partially because i just got a 360 back with my old name...after 3 years of not having one, the only games i played on the 360 were quake 3, cod 2, gears 1, and reach... from looking at that u can tell when it broke and then when i got the kinnect ready one lol...

40530 mines...but this guy play easy games...sims? wallace and gromit? wtf those are child games....i bet he played avatar too -.- and king kong and ninja turtles and fight night round 3 and terminator.

Zachmo1824940d ago

Yea but dude..Sure he probably plays easy games....There are probably like 20 games that just hand them to you and im sure he played them. But damn this guy has no life thats a fuck load of gamerpoints.

Btw sims isn't for xbox yet.

marioPSUC4940d ago

Wallace and Gromit are awesome.

SoSLy4940d ago

to have 500,000 gamerscore you pretty much have to play every game in existence and get every achievement you can.

pr0digyZA4940d ago

If that's true then he could have OCD. Got to get that last achievement.... damn want one more achievement..wtf no more achievements.

spooky2054939d ago

you would have to play some lame ass games too. There is no possible way all the games could have been good. This person is more of a OCD case than a true gamer. Gamers play games for entertainment value. Sometime achievements help prolong the entertainment value. But when you play games that just suck in hopes of inflating your epeen score......well thats something gamers just dont do.

Looking Back At 2008, An Unbelievably Incredible Year Of Video Game Releases

Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."

CrimsonWing694h ago

I don’t think anything can compare to 2023

lucasnooker4h ago

1998 - the best year in gaming! Metal gear solid, crash bandicoot 3, medievil, half life, ocarina of time, thief, tenchu, resident evil 2, Spyro, tomb raider 3, oddworld abes exodus, banjo kazooie.

It was a different breed of a gaming era. You’ll never understand what it was like back then. The aura of gaming, it was different!

KyRo4h ago(Edited 4h ago)

I second this. Gaming was a lot more varied and fun than it is today. I'm 35 so getting on compared to some here but I got to see all the changes from NES up to now but I've never felt so disappointed in any generation than I have this current gen. I was expecting more from this generation rather than prettier versions of games that came before it. Game mechanics have become so refined that alot of games feel the same and has done for a while now.

Maybe it's time to have a break for a while. I love gaming but I don't feel I get much fun in the traditional sense out of it anymore.

CrimsonWing693h ago(Edited 3h ago)

Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil 2, Abe’s Exodus, and Ocarina of Time are the only things from that list that I liked.

Here’s the 2023 game releases that I personally liked… and big releases that I didn’t care for:

- Dead Space Remake
- Wo Long Dynatsy
- Resident Evil 4 Remake
- Diablo 4
- Fire Emblem Engage
- Hogwarts Legcay
- Street Fighter 6
- Hi-Fi Rush
- Like a Dragon: Ishin
- Octopath Traveler 2
- Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters
- Final Fanatsy XVI (actually ended up not liking this, but it was still a big deal release)
- Baldur’s Gate 3
- Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon
- Lies of P
- Mortal Kombat 1
- Marvel’s Spider-Man 2
- Starfield (Ended up hating this one, but big release)
- Super Mario Bros. Wonder
- Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (I’m an old-school Zelda fan, but didn’t really enjoy this game)
- Alan Wake 2

I mean, honestly I’ve never seen a year of major IP releases like that, ever.

Profchaos50m ago(Edited 47m ago)

Isn't it just a generational thing realistically.

I've been gaming since way back and I some of my favourite games go as far back as the late 80s for me each generation has a year or two of game changing releases one after another before an inevitable dry spell.

I kind of agree gaming had a different feel games hit different because we didn't have the internet nothing got spoiled and you really had to put in the effort to beat a puzzle which could set entire groups of people looking for a solution. But most importantly games were experimental and not as cookie cutter as today even basics like controls were not universal today r2 is shoot l2 is ads garunteed you can't deviate from that in a shooter back then it could of been square, R1 or R1 and circle nothing was standard.

But as time moves on a new generation picks up their controller they are going to be interested in different things that PS1 demo disc with the t Rex blew our primitive 16 bit brains back on launch but to kids today it's laughable.
The new gen of kids coming into to hobby seem to value different things to us there seems to be a huge focus on online play, streamers, gaming personalities, and social experiences, convience of digital downloads. To me I value none of that but that's ok like my parents not liking the band's I would listen to its just the natural cycle.

6 Fun Games Where You Actually Play As The Bad Guy

While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.

Profchaos10h ago

Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.

It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny

Tacoboto9h ago

Armored Core VI?

Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.

Is something big coming soon to branch the story?

banger889h ago

No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).

I never got around to mass effect - I’m skeptical that it would hold up if I were to try it now

Furesis1d 2h ago

I would say it does. The combat is a bit shit for todays standards but everything else is great.

anast1d ago

It's worth a play through today.
