What are you playing?

Friend gave me Minecraft for Xbox 360. Seems pretty interesting, and strangely relaxing.

From what I've played of Alice 2, there's nothing fundamentally wrong with it. I think the problem is just that it feels dated. It feels like a game that should have been released years ago as I've seen nothing so far to make it really compete with modern games. However, it's well designed, there are hidden items to find, combat is sound and you can upgrade weapons, the graphics are pretty cool and so is the voice acting and music. I may find something to rant about it as I get further into it as I do with so many games, but so far I have no issues with it other than it feeling dated.

I loved Alice 1 alot, it is one of my favorite PC games. Alice 2 has a more refined and simply better gameplay but has none of the heart that the first had. It was pretty predictable of what you needed to do and kinda silly overall. The game starts to pickup once you get to the Bee section, but thats like 3/5s of the way through the title. I honestly had to force myself to finish it a couple months ago since I wanted to uninstall it. Had the entire game been like the last half, it would have been awesome, but the back and forth to real life, and the linear fetch quests got really old.

I also loved it, and loved seeing the game on a projector even more. Kinda-sorta-spoiler alert:

There is a level where you walk the stairway to heaven. It is gorgeous.

Playing Sonic CD, again. I'm determined to 1cc the game with all emeralds, no lives lost, so there have been a lot of frustrated Resets so far.

Man, good luck with that on the Metal Sonic race.

Yeah, this. Still a great game on the PC!

Steam version, right? I've given up trying to run the Win9X version on modern OS's.

I was going to mention that on my post there, I got the original PC CD version for buying an HP PC, it was only $5 in 1995/1996 (around that time) through some special offer they were running. I spent months and months on that, got all the Time Stones, but never reached the end. The minimal install was only 1MB and the full install was about half the hard drive at the time

I also bought the Sega Mega Pack which also contains the Sonic PC CD. And yes, if you're running XP and up, good LUCK getting it to run. Compatability mode is no go. There is a fan-created patch here but it doesn't fix it 100%, at least on my end.

Oh man, I'd never want to install my PC copy of Sonic CD ever again... I remember ages ago back on one of my ancient PC's, whenever I installed it it basically cleared out the entire directory it was installed to. Didn't matter what it was. Maybe a lot of older games did that back then though? I figure my stuff might not have been technically wiped, but yeah it completely cleared out my "Games" folder once and it was horrible. lol
