My friend got a HRAP EX, so I was trying out HD Remix with a stick for the first time. Plays so much better... holy crap. Also tested it with some Ikaruga.
 
So the mother fucking dude gets run over right the fuck before I was almost done with this shitty part of the game and Hal won't tell me what the hell to do.
 
To all the Abel doubters: he's gonna be the biggest new character in the game, believe me. At the arcade here, about 1 out of 3 people were playing exclusively as him.
 
So I picked up the Ultimate Genesis Collection today. There's an error on the back on the box. Really reassuring, you know?
 
Finished following that cunt around. If I ever meet Kojima I'm punching him in the left testicle for that.

Is Act 5 really JUST cutscenes? That would make me so happy, I love cut scenes.

Nope. There's like 10 minutes of gameplay in there. ;)

Really good eh, how is it?
Don't spoil it if you beat it though. :([/quote]


It's hard to explain. It's more for relaxation than gaming. It's something to play before bed or after a stressful day.

I only played for 15 minutes during Kath & Kim, so I didn't beat it
 
[quote name='gunm']Well, I wouldn't be as interested in Flower on 360 as the game was designed around the Sixxaxis motion control which 360 does not have anything comparable, currently.

If KZ2 was on 360, I'd still be interested because I like FPS games in general.[/quote]

Oooh, KZ2 on 360... that'd make it sooo much better. I hate the PS3 controller for FPS games.

:drool:
 
Lol @ GI Joe.

The game is currently in "pre-alpha" and, on Xbox 360, is looking like a PS2-era shooter with more current anti-aliasing applied.

And

Literally, all that is needed to proceed is the left thumb steering the on-screen character and the right index finger, locked down on the designated shooting button -- just keep on holding it and the game will automatically target a new enemy once the current one has absorbed too many laser blasts and disappears into the well known in-game ether.

Such a joke. If this game was in the hands of a competent developer it could really kick ass. Instead, EA will totally ruin it.

I can already imagine crap like $9.99 DLC for Shipwreck and Snowjob player-characters.
 
Yes, Retro Game Challenge is out.

My TE stick is in limbo land. Maybe I won't be able to get it until the next batch in April? :/ That would mess up my plans to profit off of it. :p

I just bought Qore Feb for now. I'll pick up Flower later.

Wait, so Big Mama is Eva from MGS3
? She's my favorite videogame character ever.

MGS4 spoiler.[/QUOTE]



yes, it's a shame she goes all retardo in 4. then again, everything does in 4.
 
[quote name='zewone']Where'd you get your sticks from, dawg?

GS.com?[/QUOTE]

I ordered one in store, then people were like "omg thay're taking it out of the sistem!" so I ordered another at a different store in case one store flaked.
 
[quote name='gunm']I think he just ordered the sticks now, for delivery with the April batch?

I wanted the TE now to sell for $300+. Then I'll just play with a pad. :cool:[/quote]

thats not a bad idea :lol: but wtf is up with amazon!? :bomb::bomb:

Damn. I've been trying to get a SE stick in stores for days now. I'm hoping they show up tomorrow.

SFIV with a 360 pad is tough.
 
[quote name='gunm']Edit: oh you meant you couldn't wait until April. :p[/QUOTE]


no, I can wait. as in, I don't have to have it now. :)

but man was it tempting to open it up and try it out for a bit.

The SFIV pads are nice too. don't listen to the haters. after a couple hours they loosen up nicely. mine is like butter now.

I second this statement, they're awesome as hell.
 
Finished up act 3. That final cutscene with the unveiling of the guns of the patriots was fucking cool. I won't get to play again till sunday since my weekend is packed, but I plan to finish it up the.
 
FEAR 2= :whee:

I think I'm at Interval 7 or something. Awesome game thus far though.

I'm going to the midnight showing of Friday the 13th, so I won't get to play more until Saturday possibly :cry:

the way things are lookin with amazon and the TE im tempted to just cancel my preorder and pick up a pad
 
[quote name='Nelo Ice']the way things are lookin with amazon and the TE im tempted to just cancel my preorder and pick up a pad[/quote]

I would keep your pre-order, pick up a pad, sell the TE, and then PROFIT.

At least, that's what I was going to do, assuming Capcom actually sends me a stick now, and not 2 or 3 months from now. :p

I can live with a HRAP Ex and the Catz FightPad. I could also use that $200 or so for other things.
 
I think I'm going to get one of the se sticks and mod it. My roommate wants to get into it and it'd be nice to have two sticks.

Most surprising thing I got this week? A new PSP game. Loco roco 2.

I got it cause I hate Sony, you know.

I can't wait to play games this weekend!
 
I was going to buy Killzone 2, but I thought Oneechanbara looked much better. So I'm going to buy that, and steal a copy of Killzone 2 and break it so that it can't be sold.

Rally King and Star Prince are my faves so far in RGC.
I like Cosmic Gate a lot too, cuz I'm a Galaga freak.

And just unlocked the RPG last night.
 
Of the 5 games jer has on his XBL playlist right now, I have 4 of them on my PS3. The fifth I don't have because it's Call of Duty: WaW, and I'm too fuckin' smart to pay for that tripe.

So, you know, just sayin'; obviously I don't have enough games on my That Triple (is it still ironic to call it that).

Speaking of Call of Duty, I've been playing Quantum of Solace for a few days now. It's fuckin' terrible. Like if Uncharted was recreated with a tuxedo suit and by programmers who had no hands and down's syndrome. But it's a Bond game, so I'm really feeling compelled to play through it. The Bond franchise is the one stupid game franchise (by that I mean of the crappy game tie-in variety) I'm a dumbass sucker for. I even still own 007 Racing for my PSOne. But not 007: The Duel for Sega Genesis.
 
Well my tax return came today! I ordered my PS3 laser cost me 82.xx for overnight shipping from Canada. I hope to be playing disks based games again sometime tomorrow! I did play the 1st "flower" in flower and I really enjoyed it.
 
[quote name='dallow']Dang, there's already a used copy of the Genesis collection at a GS not too far, but not that near me.[/QUOTE]

cheesemint whore, prolly. motherfuckin' freekyzeeky has platinum'd that game already, so it must be crazy simple to do.

It is for the most part. But I'll probably never get all 1000 points. I can't stand playing Sonic Spinball long enough to get 100,000,000 in the first level.
 
Sonic Genesis Collection is tight. I don't like how cheap the package is though. It should come with a huge manual or something...they need to get Working Designs to make them some pendants and glittery boxes with naked anime chicks on the cover (even if that has nothing to do with the game.) Point is, they still don't have a list of what the items in Phantasy Star do and I still can't play it without a FAQ.
