you're a weird dude and I often disagree with your opinions, frost.
 
Apple Game Center is apparently ready for prime time now.

Edit: Project Sword looks really nice. But shit, I need to upgrade my phone now. fuck ing Apple.

I don't see how he's weird, but I do often disagree with him. Probably more than anyone else in the thread that plays a lot of the same games I do.

I think it's just that he's uber critical on games and tends to focus on the negatives, so even games he likes his opinions come across negatively most of the time. I don't take gaming that seriously, so I tend to have mostly praise and a few nit picks for the games I play.

what's that? is that the XBL equivalent thing?


Dodonpachi is great. Apparently it's an eye-catcher too. Whenever I'm playing on the bus, I look up and notice people watching, which is weird

I like Zero Mission, but didn't you have high praise for Singularity and are now calling Vanquish boring and generic? :lol: I mean, Raven Software games are the epitome of mediocre and generic FPS

What about Project Snowblind? That game has project in the name as well

This is what I want, not some BS DLC where none of the main characters talk and there is no story.[/QUOTE]

Overlord had a decent enough story to it.

Kasumi didn't have a lot of story, but adds a cool character if you have another play through to do--not a lot of point in buying it if you're done playing the game since you wouldn't get to use her much.
 
I went and preordered/paid off Halo Reach Legendary. I also used my Powerup coupon to grab Deadly Premonition, Banjo-Kazooie Nuts and Bolts, and Dead Rising. I also picked up Case 0. I haven't played but a couple of seconds.
 
I'm really not a fan of the disposable nature of the iPod Touch, especially since they're expensive as fuck. Make them cheaper like Apple TV and I'd be more okay with it.
 
I really want that Halo Reach Legendary edition but I really can't right now. Yet I'm currently thinking of getting DR2 Highstakes edition...
 
i assume he means "buy a .99 game, play for 15 minutes, never touch it again" problem.

which i agree with. there are cool iphone games, but only Chaos Rings, Dodonpachi, and ESPgaluda have actually kept me coming back. Otherwise, it's like "neat!" and then I forget about it.

I'd probably play Phoenix Wright if I hadn't beaten it a few times. Maybe i'll replay Trials and Tribulations when they get around to releasing that.
 
Oh ok. I thought he meant the devices were disposable.

I can agree with the "lite" feel of 99% of ios games. I barely play games on this thing.


Don't get PW.
Requires a net connection to play last I heard?

I think he did.

I took "disposable" to mean "throw your current one away because a new one is available with more capacity and features for only $100 more than you paid last year". Then again, I see the same problem with the iPhone, which is why I left the platform. :whistle2:?
(Read: Oh hey, look, it's a year later, your device is outdated like a 3 year old computer, come buy our new model. If you don't, you wouldn't get our continued support. [See, iPhone 2g, iPhone 3g, 1st gen iPod Touch, etc. July 2010 will see a 5th generation iPod Touch and iPhone 4g which would make the iPhone 4 look like a relic. Oh and when it happens, iPhone 3gs will no longer be supported with new features and improvements in iOS.])
 
guess it depends on how compelled you are to upgrade. I guess I jumped in at the right time because it's going to take a lot more for the iphone 4 to make me feel like my 3GS is junk. None of the functionality is particularly bad...it's all still quite good. Most of my problems are with AT+T coverage, so I suppose a verizon iPhone would make me feel like I have something worse.
 
[quote name='Chibi_Kaji']The last survivor in case zero is a pain to get... maybe I'll try it after give Katey the Zombrex.[/QUOTE]
That is what I had to do, she won't spawn until you kill the psychopath

[/QUOTE]
Nah, You can get her before that. But I had to give up because I realized that I probably wouldn't have enough time to get back to Katy. Honestly making me run back and forth is retarded...

When I had a touch, I recall having to download each case one by one and couldn't keep the previous one. Maybe that was the verizon version... whatever, lol.
 
[quote name='Jesus_S_Preston']If I use a credit card can I buy 400 spacebucks for 5 realbucks over XBL? I wanna go home and get case zero.[/QUOTE]

Plus tax, yes.

Which brings me to another gripe, I only get charged tax for points on XBL, but not for buying a regular points card in a store. I don't get charged tax on PSN or buying an in store card. I'm sure there's some stupid reason for this.

i went with the reach Limited myself since i figure the legendary will be alot cheaper by the end of the year or next year that and the only reason i want legendary is due to the flaming helmet
 
[quote name='seanr1221']Frost is the weirdest of guys. He is a Ginger, which would explain it.[/QUOTE]

Be careful. The Japanese believe gingers are demons. :cool:
 
Damn I might have to actually go to NY Comic-Con... they are gonna have the Gundam 00 movie there. So that probably means Halo Reach is a no go.

I finally got the last survivor in Case Zero. It was much easier to take care of Katey first. Now I just have to spend $100,000 and kill 1,000 zombies...
 
I beat Other M on Hard Mode tonight. It took a tiny bit under 5 hours to do. It's tough doing a 0% run of a Metroid game when most bosses kill you in a single hit.
 
[quote name='dallow']Disposable nature?[/QUOTE]
They upgrade the iPod Touch/iPhone so often that unless you upgrade at least every other year, you're ignored by Apple and developers as they only focus on the new specs. You might as well toss it into the garbage with how much Apple cares about supporting their customers.

Meanwhile, the PSP 1000 and Fat DS still play every game that comes out now without needing better hardware, though the other iterations added new form factors and extra benefits like the mic, more ram, cameras, and the DSiWare.
 
Been outa gaming for the past few days... actually that's a lie. Been playing my PSP while away. Tekken 6 and Eye of Judgment PSP mostly.

Trying to get through Mafia II.

Just got back from a good night of women and booze. No complaints here.
 
CAG is back. I was off-island today for work. Day trips are stressful due to the time constraints. I probably should've brought my DS or something for the airport, but oh well at least I had Internetz.

This is so true. I have a 3G and it can't do shit compared to a 3GS, let alone a 4. (and when I mean "shit", if I can't play those iphone Cave shmups, then I say "shit!". Or more like "fuck you Apple"!)

Not always, I don't get charged taxes when buying MSP from my Xbox or the site, but I always get charged tax when buying stuff on PSN.

The Japanese are correct, on this at least.
 
I caved in and got Valkyria Chronicles 2 last night. I didn't get the chance to try it because I left my PSP at home. Othr M also arrived last night as well.

[quote name='Nelo Ice']i went with the reach Limited myself since i figure the legendary will be alot cheaper by the end of the year or next year that and the only reason i want legendary is due to the flaming helmet[/QUOTE]
I kinda of want that helmet as well...
 
DR2: Case 0 has really made me want to get DR2 even though I wasn't all that interested before since I kind of didn't like the first game. But, I think I know what I hated about the first game, and as long as they don't put a jeep with a machine gun on it that re-spawns in the middle of where you have to go, I think I'll probably really enjoy it, so now I think I'll pick it up.

I'm still debating whether to get Halo Reach, since I really love Halo; but I think I've kind of lost interest after 3 since I still haven't even gotten Halo ODST yet.
