Epic Game Endings [Spoilers Ahoy and in White]

[Jafthasleftthebuilding]

I just finished Portal 2, and besides just loving almost everything about it, the ending just made me laugh and I was amazed at how it was handled. Just amazed. Valve can make truly epic games. I thought the first portal was very good and fun, albeit a lil' short, but they added challenge mode and whatnot and created an inside joke that became sooper famous as it was not half-baked. Anyway...

In white: Just the whole let me create a portal to the moon sequence was rike, HOLY SHAIZHTGTGA and then, GlaDOS claiming to have deleted Caroline and I thought I almost died again and then, and then the whole musical portion with them sirry turrets.. 8O And then being reunited with a long lost friend. My goodness. AROGMASOGMASDOFMASDFM I loved it.

Yeah. Portal 2 is awesome. Now I just need to try the co-op section. <_< >_>

I got portal 2 just a few days ago. The whole game blew me away, especially the end. I've just played single player as well though.

Another game that really surprised me was Alpha Protocol. I mean, a lot of people were quick to jump on hating it and saying it was broken, but there were a number of really good elements, and the last level or two blew me away with how awesome they were. Really made me want to replay it and make different choices to see if I could beat it under different circumstances.

A number of other games with great endings too, just gotta take the time to think about all of them.

Hmmm... Yeah, I noticed you playing that one. I don't really know anything about it. After watching a youtube video and looking at meta: Also, it seems like the PC version is the best version. Go PC, bby. cool The decision making system seems pretty sweet, too. Even the non-favourable reviews mention it.

I'm still giving preference to Deus Ex in terms of wanting to purchase.

I don't blame you there. From what I hear Deus Ex is pretty awesome. I'm just surprised that AP went for as little as 2 bucks. All the negative reviews out there for it... I don't know, I didn't really notice those problems. I'm guessing they played the console versions, or they just played through like idiots. I experienced very few problems with playing through it to be honest.

Some of the most common complaints were AI, keyboard controls, dated visuals, strange/odd animations, and stealth not being... stealthy enough, or something. But when a game grabs hold of you, you're too busy enjoying the game to stop and examine problems.

Example: Oblivion's combat was boring as a mother... but the world and quests and the world again keep me entertained and involved. Another one is Mirror's Edge. I fell in love with that game, too. The art style and sense of speed... orgasmic. Eventually I did move past those frustrating portions and completed it. I also just liked replaying that first level again and again. Hehehe.


And wow! Two dollars. D: That's an awesome deal.

That was the biggest thing about AP though. People complained that the stealth wasn't stealthy enough and the guards had no trouble seeing you and s**t. The thing is, these are supposed to be TRAINED guards that KNOW that someone could be coming. OF COURSE THEY'LL BE PAYING ATTENTION! That's like complaining that a sniper is too good at playing hide and seek. His job is noticing people. Keyboard controls weren't really bad, though I'll admit the animations did get odd at times, but that was generally in death because they had ragdoll elements. The AI wasn't really that bad either, but I played on the hard setting, rather than easy which I'm guessing a bunch of those people played on.

It's just like you said though, that game really got a hold of me, so instead of looking for bullshit reason to complain about it, I actually just played and enjoyed it.

You sound like a gamer that appreciates art. Ohohoho... Unless you were crying because you were overwhelmed by white goo. That stuff, I swear... That kind of idea is full of holes.
