Post subject: SHanghai Gamers

Hi umm I was wondering... are there any gamers here? See im addicted to Super Smash Brawl and I got it as soon as it came out. But I don't really have anyone to play with. Ever since WoW has been having high latency issues.

Is it an addiction when you're playing GTA IV and instead of watching TV, you sit your game character in front of virtual TV in his virtual and watch the virtual History Channel for an hour?

Liberty City TV is much better than CCTV9 and ICS Very Happy

I think everyone is playing GTA4. Its the best game to come out this year and everyone in our office is playing it and giving it rave reviews. that says a lot coming from game devs. CoD4 and GTA4, very hard to decide a winner.

I was looking for gamers here , but unfortunatly Noone in china seems to plau UT ;(

I would soooooo much love to have some proper Unreal matches again ( On PC you Fool)

Although COD and GTA are great games, nothing beats a proper TF2 Match online on PC Very Happy

I only have a XBox360 and a PS2 and I haven't played a PC game in 4 years. I've been thinking about getting a Wii for ages but never gotten around to it.

But the wii is fun... well actually the 360 has better games coz I only play Brawl on the Wii and thats about it. Age of Conan is about to come out and Warhammer is supposedly the game a lot of people are waiting for... Anyone play DOTA here by any chance?

Used to be a very badly addicted gamer back in US >< played WoW, RO, FFXI, Zelda, CS, AoE, etc.. but mainly a PC gamer =p Currently only play a little CS source, although got a Wii but let someone borrowed it...

Ended my WoW career when I sold my account for $500+ USD on ebay XD

Got the Wii but might have to get something more GTA4 compatible, as I don't want to wait for a year to play the PC version.

Resident Evil 4 for the Wii is fun though. Civilization 4 on the PC! Win!

I have Brawl but it doesn't work on my Japanese modded Wii. Something about Nintendo making the game have some kind of brand-new coding so it can't be played on anything except an American Wii. :\

Student, high school.

I know but I don't want the hassle of going through Japanese menus, plus the fake Japanese copies I bought don't work for the same reason my English one doesn't.

I'm in Jinqiao, Pudong. You?

The Brawl I bought on Beijing Xi lu works in my japanese Wii with US menues. But it might break your wiis menus - I broke mine somehow and brawl was one of the games I had been playing. But I never go in there anyways and next round of buying games I will buy a japanese game and do an update

btw, I love lucas more than Sheik now. only problem is that his FS is utter crap.
