View Full Version : Video Game=my favorite waste of time

Ok this isnt about your favortie video game. This is about the game that you just love to sit in front of your set and zone out with.
What I mean is, I love the whole Final Fantasy series and will play anyone of them anytime,but I never consider it lost time. In fact I look forward to those games and that series.
The alternate is the game I have right now in my PS3, Disgea 3. Disgea is a strategy roll playing game with side worlds and quests. There is some fun to the game play here,but mostly its just about leveling weapons,at least the way I play it is. I can sit for hours and just explore side worlds in this game, I hardly ever get to the main story, and I have done it with every version they put out.
I just wondered if anyone else had a game like this where they just kind of let the game play them. It can be from any system, any generation of any system in fact.

I would play this stupid Disgea game on any system. In fact this is such a huge waste of time for me that it keeps me from playing other games I want to. I have the latest Dragon Quest around here somewhere but I cant be bothered with getting started when I can just turn this game on. I play FF online too and havent been on in over a month because its just so easy to turn on the PS3 and lose myself in this game.

I'm waiting until April to pick up a PS3, as the guy at Gamestop told me the other day that all PS3 systems are dropping $100 in April. How is the Blueray player in the PS3? Any reported problems?

Its the best blue ray player you can buy,because its wifi connection allows you to update the player when ever an update comes out immediately. I actually got mine just to play Disgea tho(knowing that later I can play FF on it) wasting time is my priority lately.

Any reason to splurge on the 160GB? Or is the 80GB sufficient for a casual gamer?

With emphasis on downloads,lots of games available, movies too, your probably better off with more space then less. A lot of really great games just for fun are cheap downloads,ten dollars and less.

yeah if you played enough you could do that with remotes.

but you average players would not realize the spawn rotations.

It's getting harder and harder to spend any extended period of time gaming, but I've been working on Gran Turismo 3 for about a year now. I bought it for 5 bucks out of the used bin at Game Stop.

That would require screen peaking you prick! The fucking Caverns were the WORST map on that game, you couldnt find anyone. And when you did it was a crap shoot because you would get too excited and spas out.


Plus where were you two weeks ago Chris with this $100 less PS3 shit. WHAT THE FUCK!!!!!!!! Its still a great system and a great Blue Ray player, I just need an HDMI cable, im using component cables right now.

160GB is good only if you are a pack rat.
If you play, discard, and move on to the next thing 80GB is sufficient.
