i cant even begin to estimate the hours of fun that deus ex has given me in plot, gameplay mechanics, replayability i mean if you get into the game and you enjoy the story there are TONS of little details that will amaze you, be it hacked emails eavesdropped conversations, newspapers, books its an amazing methodical cyberpunk universe built almost 12 years ago!! I mean if you play it to the fullest its going to be a 100 part playthrough...at least... but you will enjoy every minute of it ;)
wow, first you play my alltime favorite game star control 2, and now you have my second and third one in your list. you, sir, have a great taste in games!
1.Thief, you wont get more atmosphere anywhere else
2.Deus Ex, you wont get a better story anywhere else
are we gonna see you play all those games eventually? really looking forward to this.
FALLOUT!! It's so long and fun and ridiculous, you'll absolutely love it as long as you fully (I do mean fully) accept how different the gameplay is from Fallout 3. Behind that, Deus Ex looked pretty awesome. Also, LOL, thanks for acknowledging the 5%, makes me feel special XD
@Songstryss hehe yep you're part of an elite club there :P
I've seen some gameplay footage of Fallout 1 so I'm somewhat familiar with how different it is, but I avoided learning too much as I wanted to keep it fresh. I've read the manual though, which came with the game when buying it from GOG. As I understand it, it's more like Baldur's Gate, which is fine with me :)
@JimPlaysGames Thank you so much, Jim. You are awesome :) I am especially keen on hearing the battle sound/music of Kingdom At War again. Again, thank you very much!
Congrats on your milestone Jim... very well deserved indeed. And thanks for the mention. Shouting you out may have made a few people come take a look, but it's the pure quality of your work here that keeps them coming back. Keep it up :)
(The one I definitely do not want to watch is BG, cause I plan on playing it some time eventually and I don't want any spoilers. :) The others I already have. Plus it's huge as you know, with lots of text and dialogue which IMO is not great for video. )
I'm just going to assume that the order you mention the games is the order of preference unless otherwise stated. Sorry to bug you guys about it, I just don't want a "hanging chads" situation :)
Great, 10 millions binary subscribers, well deserved. Only 200 in hexadecimal tho ;)
My vote would had go for Baldur's Gate being one my fav game, but since you haven't played Fallout (something that must be fixed) it will have my vote.
@JimPlaysGames Yeah. I'm curious to see if FO1 has the same impact on you, that it had on me. It remains one of my all-time favorites and I still play through it every other year.
First vote: Space Quest 1. I loved this game back when it was released and it was the first adventure game I ever completed. I must have had A LOT of patience back then with the text parser and my limited knowledge of the English language.
Second vote: Fallout 1. I remember playing and liking this game a lot but can't remember much else about it. It would be nice to see if I still remember anything about the game at all.
I'd like to see Fallout 1. The atomic/post apocalyptic settings are some things I really can not stand, I just can not cope with them. So I'll never play Fallout. But I am very curious to what this is all about. First vote then: Fallout 1.
Second vote would be Space Quest 1. It is one of the games, that helped create a whole genre.
Baldur's Gate would be rather long (longer than SC2, probably). Amnesia is not for somebody with my weak nerves. So, both out :)
@slenkar I just wrote down the names and tried to visit whole clusters at once. So I just wrote down centauri if I'd visited all the centauri systems. It also helped having a video record of where I'd been :)
Hey Jim! Congratulations to another binary milestone!
As for the game I want you to play: Space Quest! Yeah, there are a few deaths here and there but it's actually awesome and I think it would suit your style perfectly.
Congrats on the subs milestone. :) As for the vote: you're not making this easy, heh. They're all great choices.
I'll go with Thief as 1st choice, Space Quest 1 as 2nd choice.
If you end up playing Thief, do you plan to play it vanilla? As-is? There are a lot of fan-made updates and enhancements that improve the graphics, add widescreen support, etc.
BTW: What is the song playing at the beginning and end of the video? It sounds familiar, but I can't place it. Something from the demo scene?
@Fawltykog no worries mate, I know it's not for everyone :)
However I'm only taking votes for the games on the short list this time around. Wanted to make sure there were more than a couple of votes for the winning game :)
Congrats on 512 subs and over 100k views! But damn it Jim, you're not making this easy at all! Great batch of games and I reckon all of them would make for fine videos. I will pick fallout, I played it a little about 5 years ago but couldn't really get into it for various reasons. I also recently finished Fallout New Vegas so would be fun to see how it ties back with the canon. In case of a tie Space Quest should be a laugh, even if you're cowarding out of the awesome old classic text version.
@omfgwtfrulz sorry I wanted to keep it to a short list so that I can have a chance of getting more than one or two votes for any particular game. That way hopefully the game chosen will be enjoyed by a decent number of people.
Congratulations! Hard choice of the game. Many true classics there. I spent one summer playing Baldurs Gate. I played tons of Fallout 2 too. My #1 vote would definitely be Fallout 1. Second favorite would be Baldurs Gate.
1st: Theif: The Dark Project.
2nd: Baldur's Gate.
Thanks dude.

My Suggestions in order:
1. System Shock 2 - Put off playing this for years, but when I did get round to playing it I couldn't stop. Very atmospheric and unsettling.
2. Fallout 1
3. Fallout 2
4. Deus Ex
5. Shadowrun (Super Nintendo)
Some of my favourite games and Shadowrun, which was an interesting game for a console RPG.

@MegaChaos79 well System Shock 2 wasn't on the list I'm considering so I guess I'll interpret that as a vote Fallout 1.

I think Thief would make for an interesting playthrough.
Deus Ex as a second option would be quite entertaining.

A great selection. Look forward to your take on them.
Fallout 1 - I played FA2 first and slightly prefer it. Holds its own against the newer games in the series.
Deus Ex - Another of my all-time faves.
Space Quest - I played a bit of the EGA version on a PC emulator on my Arc.
Thief - Probably got into it a bit late. By then, I had already played other games with stealth mechanic.
Bladurs Gate - Would probably like it if not for the fantasy setting.
Amnesia - Curious to see it in action.

Baldurs Gate! Definately that!
I used to play it (with only a solo char) to no end back in the days, with removed level cap, higher level rule patch, etc.
I loved the freedom the game gave one, and definately the whole atmosphere and exploration AND it being D&D. :]
But I actually never finished the game, because my old PC was too crappy and would always die on the final battle, even with low grafik settings. xD
