GGT 72 Gave Me The Clap!! Shit.

[Chacrana]

It's all you guys' faults!

I should be getting my review copy of SC4 today, so hit me up if you're on the 360. And I should be getting some other good shit in the mail today, as well. It's gonna be rockin'.

I also discovered one of those 1-month trials for Xbox Live in one of the games I had, so I've got that activated now. Hell yeah - not paying for XBL is kewl.

Additionally, I've been watching ladies' gymnastics for all the wrong best reasons.

[guinaevere]

The thing is Chac, I'm not a huge FFiv fan.

[Chacrana]

That's tragic.

Well in that case, try TWEWY... I've heard nothing but good things about it, so it's probably good.

[Krymner]

FFIV DS is awesome.

I'll wait for a price drop before picking up TWEWY.

And what's with all these non-gaming related GGT titles? Everyone else just run out of ideas?

[guinaevere]

Well, does FFIV use the FFIII class system?

[MarkMan]

I feel bad, I have like a stack of 20 or so review copies/preview builds of games that I haven’t touched/took out of packaging lol. I just took the assets/print material out to read/research, but that’s it.

What has everyone been playing? Over the weekend it was all Soulcalibur IV for me. This week it’s all Rock Band 2 ;P ! Well not all this week. I played RB2 a bit last week, I’m digging the song selection.

I should be getting a PS2 Sega Saturn control pad in tomorrow from a fellow CAG member, so I’m hyped for that. Aside from SCIV, I’ve been playing nothing…. But when Bionic Commando: Rearmed drops, I’ll be sure to play that. Coop is gonna be so fun.

[Chacrana]

Well, does FFIV use the FFIII class system?

Nope. And it also doesn't suck, unlike FF III, which sucked unfathomable amounts of dick.

Been playing some Ninja Gaiden 2, Soul Calibur IV, some classic games and will probably get started on Uncharted today.

[DarthPuma]

This week it will be all CSS, SC4, and maybe CVS2 if I get it. And school starts wednesday.

[JEKKI]

sweeeeet! Strong Bad and Star Parodier on virtual console!!

I prolly gotta buy a points card today

[Jesus_S_Preston]

Whoever said Yoshi's Island DS is harder---I had 80+ lives when I hit world 4. Then they filled the last two worlds with too many spikes and bottomless pits to ramp up the hard.

[blueshinra]

Every time I see "CSS" I think, "Cascading Style Sheets", not "Counter-Strike: Source" :lol:

Gwen: If you like the FFIII job system (haven't played the game yet; it's in my Pile of Shame), check out FFV! Also, TWEWY is love; probably the best new game I've played so far this year.

Played a little bit more FFVII, and Mario Kart. Might start DMC3 soon.

Beat Izuna 1 finally w00t. Although, fuck them lanterns from burning off my talismans. Hate them.

A valid point. But will people still be playing online?

[JEKKI]

noooooo!!! I wanted to go to the store today to buy sum stuff and a Wii points card

but when i went to get a coupon in the target thread it said this:

This space dedicated to the memory of the 10 dollar off 360 gaming software coupon and five dollars off 25 dollars purchase coupon. We all abused the hell out of you-- you nor Target cared. Now it's time for you to rest... sleep well our sweet prince. You've given us what we all wanted and more... now you shall eternally be cheapass champions.


maaaaan I woulda love to save $5... u kno how many tacos or burritos or bananas I can get for $5??? quite a bit actually...

[SL4IN]

I played the moving game saturday night after a 10 hour workday. It sucked.... alot :bomb:

Last night played some MVC2 on dreamcast with some friends for a few hours. Other than that, been playing hot shots golf open tee 2 on psp.

[DarthPuma]

I've always wanted to play MVC2.

GGPO doesn't work for me, it always says login failed. WTF.

[Rei no Otaku]

The thing is Chac, I'm not a huge FFiv fan.
You poor thing.

[hankmecrankme]

I didn't play anything yesterday since I had to spend hours fixing my damn stupid ass PC. My Linux adventures apparently converted my Vista x64 HDD from MBR to GPT, so I spent all day trying to figure out what happened and now I'm recovering it. Yay.

Today I'll play some SCIV and probably some random shit becasue that's how I roll. I'm thinking Snatcher. . .

[Mr. Beef]

I've always wanted to play MVC2.
Me too. If the current tournament scene would let me play as Bison, Jill, and Felicia, then I'd be all good.

[gunm]

GRiD (PS3) for $39.99 .. yay or nay?

(I can't decide anything for myself)

Yay--I say buy it if you like racers. I have it and it's awesome (played last night actually--dayum the destruction derby events are hard). Consider also that when it does drop, it won't go lower than $30 the first time it does so. This isn't a game where it's gonna drop dramatically in a short period of time.

Nay. The Nuby SF controllers are pretty bootleg.

[Krymner]

Played a little bit of Warhawk. I've gotten a lot better by playing on those really small maps with a bunch of people. Other than that, I've been playing a bit more Xenosaga, putting in about 15 hours so far, so I would assume I'm about one-third to one-half into it.

And I'm so looking forward to Bionic Comando. Why isn't the NES version on the VC???

I think I'm the only person that likes them. If it's cheap, then give it a shot. I used mine before I got a smaller stick. Now they are mainly for PC Saturn usage.

PCB is also fantastic for a custom stick. ;)

Edit: It also helps that they are dirt cheap when you do find them.

Yea those Nuby pads are ballz.

If you want one that works well, get a PC Saturn or PS2 Saturn Pad + converter. If you wanna wait, get the SF IV gamepad.

[gunm]

I love the Saturn pad. It's a bit tough to find at a reasonable price, though (at least in my experience, when I was looking for one--I ended up just getting the Saturn stick).

My friend's PS3 always signs him out. My PS3 and my other friend's PS3 don't do that.

You can copy PS2 saves with the memory card adapter. It's $15. A rip, I know. They should've just put a PS2 memory card slot on the damn thing when they were putting other memory card slots on it.

The only static I've seen is sometimes when it does the HDMI HDCP handshake, the screen will flip out and go all snowy for a sec.

Dunno about the Hannspree, but I have an LG 21.6" that' has similar specs to the HS, and it works great for 360 and PS3. I've used a 19" HS and it was a pretty solid monitor.

If nothing else, just go buy it and try it. Return it if it sucks.

$220. It was on sale. I like it because it has a 4:3 mode, so I can play things that aren't widescreen without ghetto stretching them. My DC actually looks nice on it.

If you are talking about the 16:9 vs. 16:10 difference, it's a little noticable, but I don't even care after like 2 minutes or so.
But stretching 4:3 to 16:10 sucks massive balls.

[Chacrana]

Yeah, I was talking about the 4:3 stretching to 16:10. I still find the 16:9 difference to be a little jarring, though I wouldn't throw a hissy fit over it like I would in that first scenario.

yup
http://gamerscoreblog.com/team/archive/2008/07/14/mrcwhtnltrxle.aspx

But see, it's sealed nd I'm kinda spoiled with DS graphics over GBA now. So I was thinking either to IV as I finished III, and this would be more in order even if the games have nothing to do with each other.

And I'm not sure if I'm going to keep any of my ever dwindling GBA library at this point, and sealed sells for more on ebay than opened. Kinda strange, I was never that big on handhelds until the DS came along. There were a couple I liked, especially GBA titles like pokemon & fire emblem, but before that handhelds bored the teeth outta me.

What's this? Is this like RiffTrax but with Joel instead of Mike?Oh my gosh Mak, it's better! Full out movies with Joel, Josh, Mary Jo, Frank and Trace! :whee: Come on over and watch Doomsday Machine with me.

I was playing TWEWY when my DS gave me the red of charge. I think I stumbled upon the end of day 3 week 2. I am over level 40. I still don't understand how to scratch. Some of these pins are impossible!I just started this, and I have no clue what I'm doing with Shika, so I'm just leaving her on auto pilot for now. Unfortunately, I did a little level grinding, played around with my pins (i guess you can have four decks?) and wound up polishing the statue and I've got three pins of 100 yen equipped... is there a way too swap pin decks IN battle? DS is sleeping in the meantime.

[RelentlessRolento]

Yeah, I knew BCR was gonna be great because it's not pretentious or experimental - it's Capcom saying "okay, we know how to make a fucking game, now shut up and buy it." And that's all it really takes.


:applause:

yeah, Capcom has a good track record that, even if a game sucks, it feels solid.

I forgot about Warhawk. I bought that game last November on the PSN. Played it for a week and I wasn't very fond of the controls. Maybe my PS3 resurgence combined with that new booster pack with jet packs will make me more interested.

DS is sleeping in the meantime.I left Shika et al on auto-pilot the whole game, not really any worse for the wear, though I'm sure some parts would be easier if you master that bit. You're SOL with the pins you have equipped in battle, unfortunately. Maybe you could bribe them with a few hundred yen to let you go? :lol:

I don't remember exactly what it was, but I think that CAG wouldn't let me register a name that long way back. Of course, I later made a second account called Chacranajxy, and I used it after being temp banned for posting that Mein Kampf pic to make fun of LinkinPrime and LinkinPrime banned it.

Thats cool. I got the 360 LE for $45. All I had to do was trade in that AWFUL Gundam game on PS3 (that I never played and recently bought for $8) and Dark Sector (loved it, but I'm never going to play it again).

[Chacrana]

Ahaha, you seriously bought the Gundam game, Azu? Lolololol.

Sorry. :lol:

Go Vikings?

[pitfallharry219]

Do you guys know if the original DS came with a cover for the GBA slot?

[Chacrana]

I don't believe so. I'm not 100% on that, but I definitely don't remember ever having one.

[Nelo Ice]

nope no cover slot on the phat one

It did not come with a cover.

It was more like a "ooh its $8, time to find out how fucking awful this game is!".
Thankfully, I never even put the disc in.
$8 for $25 off Madden? Win.

[Jest]

I don't believe so. I'm not 100% on that, but I definitely don't remember ever having one.


It didn't

That's what I thought. Thanks, guys.

[refusedchaos]

pssh dont hate cause you got no skillz at that game8-) its no were near horrible as the reviewers say it is..

I can kind of see that. FFV is a really great game if you've never played it, but of course, Squeenix will probably do a remake of that next. Not that I'd mind (for a change!).

Also, the DS is the first handheld that I've owned, and I love it to bits.

Ha ha!

To be fair, though, TWENY is a new IP/game from the ground up, and FFIII/IV DS were probably not cheap to re-do the way they did.

Chrono Trigger DS though...man, that's tough to justify as anything more than fanb01 rape...

And ya, Sackboy rules.

[distgfx]

I sooooo hope there'll be a LBP CE with a sack boy.

There was mention in the comments of the playstation blog that they're 'on it.'

http://blog.us.playstation.com/2008/08/05/littlebigplanet-pre-order-goodness/

5th comment down, though no mention of a LBP CE yet.

[Rei no Otaku]

Am I the only person who owns a PS3 and doesn't care about LBP?

[Maklershed]

Yes

[Chacrana]

I don't care, either. Sackboy looks stupid, and I still don't see any actual game beneath the whole user created content nonsense.

[blueshinra]

I don't have a PS3 and think LBP looks amazing... except for what I've seen of the Sackboy/girl animation (it's too floaty). If I did have a PS3, that alone would be enough to convince me not to buy the game.

Everything else though? Looking good.

Ha ha!

To be fair, though, TWENY is a new IP/game from the ground up, and FFIII/IV DS were probably not cheap to re-do the way they did.
Yeah, but as a new IP, you'd think they'd want to encourage people to buy the game with a lower price. Oh wait, this is Squeenix we're talking about...

[Maklershed]

There's an actual full single player campaign mode. You have to beat levels to unlock worlds/content for your own use.

[Rei no Otaku]

I don't care, either. Sackboy looks stupid, and I still don't see any actual game beneath the whole user created content nonsense.
Exactly! I just don't care about user created content. I'm paying you $60 to make me a game, not have other people make it for you. And yes, Sackboy looks stupid.

[Chacrana]

There's an actual full single player campaign mode. You have to beat levels to unlock worlds/content for your own use.

No, but what's the actual gameplay like? The videos make it look like you're basically running from point A to point B and.... that's it. That barely even qualifies as an NES game.

[distgfx]

Exactly! I just don't care about user created content. I'm paying you $60 to make me a game, not have other people make it for you. And yes, Sackboy looks stupid.

Blasphemy! Boo! Hiss! Boo! ... Nah, I don't really care, not everyone's cup of tea. Just like the RPG genre as a whole is boring as shit to me. Bla bla bla, insert more analogies of peace and getting along here.

I want a sackboy plush. I asked our Sony rep about it but she said she didn't know if they were making one or not. Sackboy's totally a ripoff of Voodoo Vince though. Just kidding. Maybe.

Finally playing Ninja Gaiden 2. It's fun but repetitive as hell.

So...Strong Bad is pretty weak, for what it's worth.

Shame Ys didn't come out today...or Earthbound...or Super Mario RPG, oh wait...I'm not an rpg fan like all other gamers nowadays.

From the dozens of AA-AAA games coming for the ds, I'm only looking forward to the Kirby and the Gta games. Sonic, chrono, etc...yeesh! Maybe AC on the wii...probably not though. Lotta games on the 360 interest me though, even fable 2 (action rpg = fun...it's zelda esque). At least it's not that I'm against music games...they are all over the place now!

[Scorch]

Ooh! That reminds me. I'm nearing the end of Earthbound. I need to finish it up. Good lord, do I love that game. I've played up to the end several times but never beaten it.

//edit: Also finally got some time with Final Fantasy IV DS in, and I gotta say, I love this version so much more than the SNES, PS1 and GBA versions. It's so much more difficult and I'm actually having trouble with it. I love it.

Edward was useless to me in other versions so I didn't use him, but did he always have the melody that auto-heals teammates? That thing has saved me so many times

Hey, the description says the monitor has speakers built-in anyway. If you're trying to get top notch sound though, unless you have optical input available on those speakers, you're probably not going to get much of an improvement in sound.

forgot to mention that today while waiting at the doctors office in a freezing room, I played through King of Dragons... such an unappreciated title. Even if it was a rip-off of Sega's D&D games, it played on such a good engine >_<

[Kendal]

Closing in on level 45 on TWEWY. Still...day 3 week 2. But I got a bunch of pins leveled. I am trying to make a deck that is just uber bad ass for the rest of the game to use. I wish I could get a bigger wallet! I just buy a bunch of shit and then refill my wallet with pins. I really like the one pin that creates barbed wire across the screen. I had a juggle deck early in the game. Then I started leveling and forgot which ones I had on.

Also, Gwen, when you aren't playing save and shut off your DS. You will get PP for your pins. Might have to progress through the game a little bit, but once you do turn it off. It is nice to come back and have a couple pins leveled up over night.

[nyprimus4]

Madden midnight launch was pretty cool.

I pull up at like 11:45 and there is a shit load of people. My friends greet me and my one friend says you have to go inside and buy the game beforehand. The front of the line is about ten 6th graders going absolutely fucking ape shit. So I pay off the rest of the balance and get back online. We are talking about teams and such and I notice the guy next to me blatantly smoking a joint, and even more people smoking, I guess showing people that you smoke weed in public is cool, I mean who can wait the 15-20 more minutes until you get home? Anyway this Mini Cooper pulls up with a huge replica Red Bull can on top of it. Two extremely hot biatches are inside it giving away free Red Bull, I had to pass that shit is nasty. I get my copy and head off. Played two ranked matches and both people disconnected after I did endzone dances (I was winning 17-3 the first game and 28-7 the second game). It was awesome when Jamal Lewis broke a 30 yarder did the Soulja Boy in the middle of the end zone but unfortunately ya, the guy quit. So my record is 0-2 because EA's record keeping system is massively flawed.

[Chacrana]

So I hooked up the DS to my sound shit to see what Final Fantasy VI GBA would sound like if it weren't pumped through speakers that would've been considered shitty by a homeless person in 1993. And it sounds surprisingly good. Though, the only thing that bugs me about listening to the opening theme is that I played the Piano Collections version of that song, so when I play the game, it's different from what I expect.

Piano version is awesome: http://www.freewebs.com/chacranajxyschool/Final%20Fantasy%20VI%20%2DTerra%27s%20Theme%20%28p iano%29%2D.mp3

Seriously. Bose is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay overpriced. My friend keeps insisting that Bose stuff sounds good when you turn it up, but I think he's mistaking good for loud.

[Rei no Otaku]

I'm surprised Bose was even suggested. It's one of the most hated brands among audiophiles.

[Nelo Ice]

chac or rei what would u recommend? i think im just gonna go with a simple 2 speaker set up since i dont want to pay alot for a surround setup and im not sure if i my cousin would let me have that kind of setup in his house...my surround setup annoys my sister as it is :lol:

[Chacrana]

Well, you're on a budget, right? Just get a 2.1 logitech set. It's cheap and decent enough.

[Rei no Otaku]

Anyone else love old school video game music? "The Moon" from Ducktales on the NES has to be one of the best game songs ever made.

That whole game is full of win. That is the Capcom I know and love.

Ducktales is so badass. I played the shit out of that game.

[Krymner]

Yeah, "The Moon" is so awesome, and so is Ducktales. Alot of those old Capcom/Disney titles still stand up today.

I played alot of Xenosaga yesterday, and I'm about 20 hours in now. I did spend some time grinding some levels, mainly because I like being well-prepared for those boss fights so I don't have to worry about anything unexpected happening. I err on the side of caution.

So, is :ps3:Lost Planet: EC worth $16.99?? I played a little bit of the online demo and it was allright I guess. How is the campaign?

[guinaevere]

Of course, I later made a second account called Chacranajxy, and I used it after being temp banned for posting that Mein Kampf pic to make fun of LinkinPrime and LinkinPrime banned it.

I STILL THINK IT WAS FUNNY.I'm sure the pic didn't help, but dupe accounts are an instant ban around here.

Morning GGT,

Man I use to play the GB version of Ducktales all the time, awesome game.

Played some more Bully last night, it's turning out to be one of the best games I've played in a long time. There's loads of different things to do in the game world and the missions are very well designed.

[Maklershed]

benjamouth - is that an MST3k reference in your user comment?

[pete5883]

Also, Gwen, when you aren't playing save and shut off your DS. You will get PP for your pins. Might have to progress through the game a little bit, but once you do turn it off. It is nice to come back and have a couple pins leveled up over night.
You can start doing this in Day 3. I just got there. I really don't like that you have to do special things to evolve a pin that the game doesn't tell you. Which means its yet another game where I have to sit reading a FAQ instead of just playing the game.

[Chibi_Kaji]

The LBP site just announced (http://littlebigplanet.us.playstation.com/post/2008/08/Pre-Order-Details-Amazon--GameStop.aspx) where you could find some of the Pre-order bonuses. Looks like different stores will get each pre-order bonus.

Yeah, I usually change my user comment to the last MST3k episode I watched, this weeks was "I accuse my Parents", was a good season 5 Joel Ep.

Thinking about getting The Club on 360 from Gamefly for $14.99, any GGTr's have an opinion on the game ?

I was actually wondering if I got some cool pins, maybe I'll start another game and let the pins pp increase. Is this a good idea or stupid?

Not that it's not good (and it is!), but I see your "The Moon" and raise you a "SPLASH WAVE".

Out Run = best old school game soundtrack ever

(And yep, I love game music, from any era.)

[MarkMan]

The moon from ducktales is the shit, I have the Bitpop version, very soothing to the ears...
