GGT #52 welcomes the glorious return of Clay Fighter on DSiware

[quote name='benjamouth']What made you go for the Surround in the end Dallow?
I'm tending toward the Focus.
[/QUOTE]Just the form factor. Matter of opinion.
Screen is nicer on the Focus though.

[quote name='seanr1221']How do you like it, Dallow?

Im also leaning towards a Focus.[/QUOTE]
Hard to judge.
Pretty jarring after using an iPhone for 3+ years but easy to use.

Some nitpicks with contacts, but probably good for people who love Facebook.

Overall though, I really like the UI. It just needs to grow App Wise. Very few "polished" apps outside of Netflix, eBay, WeatherBug and the Live games. This is expected though, and it'll be fun trying them out as they're released.

It's a fun phone to use, I need more time though, only been half a day and have just started to get things how I want them.

I miss my little iPhone though. Gonna have to get that iPad quick to ease the pain.

Also, one thing I was worried about, I shouldn't have been.

The Zune PC software is a JOY to use.
It's nothing at all like how it used to be in that first year I had a Zune with Windows XP.

On Win 7 x64, it's super responsive and easy and clear to use.
And now that I set up WiFi sync, no more cables when I want to add pics and music.

I'm honestly really impressed with how far they came with this software.
It used to be a buggy, slow mess that crashed frequently. Now it's way faster than iTunes on a Win machine.
 
@dist, i have yet to play you. just toss me a message whenever i'm on psn, i'm only online when i play fighters anyways.

i picked up bbcs but have not even started to try to learn it -- i'm fairly solid with ssf4 though.

Oh yea, don't you play Sakura? While I play SSFIV, it's probably one of my least favorite fighters ever, problem is that everybody plays it! @_@ I only recently picked it up again. Hit me up on PSN sometime!

EDIT: Just for the hell of it, since people actually responded, who do you play in whatever fighter?

SSFIV - Dudley
HDR - Don't play enough to have a main, but I like playing as Vega.
BBCS - Main is Hazama, Mu is secondary.
T6 - Lee
3s - Dudley
MvC2 - Roll, Dan, Servbot (lulz)

I pretty much don't care about or don't play everything else. Well, out of all the ones mentioned so far anyway.
 
Who do I play in a fighter? Whomever, I guess.

Mace The Dark Ages : Lord Deimos
War Gods : Cy-5
Killer Instinct : Jago
Destrega : Anjie
Dynasty Warriors : Lu Bu because I'm a tier whore.
Eternal Champions : Slash because he has the easiest infinite ever
MK2 : Jax
MK3 : Sub Zero
UMK3 : Sub Zero
MKT : Rain because he isn't as broken as Noob Saibot
MK4 : Reiko and Tanya
Any other MK : Sub Zero
3S : Hugo, Urien
T6 : Kuma, Panda
 
[quote name='distgfx']Random is broken, you tier whore.[/QUOTE]

If Random is so broke how come Random is in every fighting game ever?

Random isn't just a character, it's a strategy.

Best random = Random Hajile.
 
This thread is random.

I want to play Fable III.

Edit: Black Ops reviews are coming out and they are good. Very good.

I'd take them with a grain of salt, if you're going into Black Ops for the multiplayer.

I'd wait a month or so to see if anybody finds an easy exploit like OMA + DC = Noobtubing. All reviews now are based on the single player and newbs playing the online.

Also, I hope I enjoy Enslaved. I bought it just now from Amazon for $25.
 
Keep giving impressions as the week goes on, Dallow.

I'm switching upgrades with my brothers fiancé, so Ill be getting the phone Saturday.

Isn't the expandable storage on the Surround a pain to get to?

The form factor of the Focus doesn't bother me...it's the build quality. The one thing Im nervous about. But that screen....:drool: it's hard to resist it.

I downloaded the OS X software to sync the phone, but one thing Im curious about is if I can back up and restore the phone with the software. Im assuming I can, but Id love confirmation. Especially because Ill have to backup and restore after I get an SD card.

Every game, even indie games, have demos, right? I noticed that, pretty impressive.

Also, get ready to start comparing our stats over WP7 Live instead of GameCenter ;)
 
I need something to play. It seems everytime I beat a game I go back to playing reach for another 2 weeks. Also, the earforce headphones are wondrous.

SSFIV - Too many (Ken, Ryu, Cammy, Chun-Li, Deejay, Cody, Guile, etc.)
HDR - Ken, Ryu, Cammy, Chun-Li, etc.
BB(CS) - guessing here, but I'd probably play with Ragna/Hakumen again.
T6 - Devil Jin, Paul, Hwoarang (many more too)
3s - Don't know. Limited play with it had me trying Ken on the 25th anniversary collection.
MvC2 - Still fucking around here... Usually like to toss Strider and Ken/Ryu in -- I'm usually all over the place though.

[quote name='distgfx']It's not about whether or not you character's bad, but what you do with them. Sure, if you get two equally skilled people with the same play style then the one with the better character would probably win, but still. It's not about how good you are anyway, it's about having fun beating the snot out of each other! I'll play SSFIV or MvC2, I refuse the play the original BlazBlue because it's so fuckin' broken ... and the two chars I play aren't in it. Feel free to hit me up on PSN whenever. Oh, and if you have a mic, I'd be more than happy to teach you a little bit while we fight.[/QUOTE]

Ok sounds good, I'll send you a friend request; and I do have a mic. :D

BB - Tried to learn Rachel but I never really figured out how to use her wind ability to actually do cool stuff
SSFIV - Sakura
MvC2 - Still just screwing around with people in that game, but I like B. B. Hood and Sakura, but not really sure if they work well together and I've also been trying Psylocke
3s - Didn't play that much from the Anniversary Collection but I mostly played as Akuma
 
Tekken 6 - Lee, Hwoarang
SSFIV - Abel (Randomly chose to start playing SFIV with one of the new guys and it stuck) trying out Adon a bit too.

Only two I've been playing. May pick up King of Fighters on Live

All Live games have demos, not the regular games. Not much looks interesting in that section though.

That might push me to the Surround then. 8GB just isn't enough.

I'd be fine with 16.

Character identity crisis! That's ok, I go through them a lot too.

Already sent a friend request last night. Rachel in BBCS kinda sucks, but it looks like the upcoming balance patch will fix that. I suck against Sakura in SSFIV, lol. Glad to hear you have a mic, it's always more fun to joke around during a battle.

[quote name='diddy310']Tekken 6 - Lee[/QUOTE]

fuck yea.

[quote name='corrosivefrost']Any of you who play fighters on PSN and haven't added me, please do so. :)[/QUOTE]

Did so last night, good times shall be had.

How much are the WP7 Live games Dallow, or a better question might be what is the price range ?
 
Uggh, put on your fucking shirt you fat fuck.
:puke:

I can't even watch that shit.

So far, Fable III is pretty fun. The new menu system is like HOME. :bouncy:
 
[quote name='benjamouth']How much are the WP7 Live games Dallow, or a better question might be what is the price range ?[/QUOTE]Price points seem to be $2.99, $4.99, $6.99, and $9.99.

Only a few are 6.99 and only one is 9.99 (guitar hero, lulz).

One is free for all. Flowerz. (so-so)
And ilomilo is free for AT&T. (pretty good)
 
Ugh, Harmonix plan for Rock Band DLC upgrades is shitty. You have to pay the full 1.99 again if you want keyboards/pro keyboards and vocal harmonies.

Then the expected 1 dollar for pro guitar/bass parts, which I don't mind

Oddly, it seems that the drums require no upgrade for the pro stuff.

Also, EA trademarked SSX: Deadly Descent, though i'll wait to get excited as it's probably a Kinect game.

Too bad Sony didn't snatch up the Kinect tech.

Imagine how much more fun HOME would be with the full body tracking.

The gangraping of female avatars(this still happen in HOME?) would be so much more disturbing.

There supposed to be a picture there, boss?
 
Pretty sure female avatars still get gangbanged on HOME. My fondest moment is interrupting some dude macking on a "chick" with my comment of "lol". Boy did he get pissed. :D
 
[quote name='diddy310']Ugh, Harmonix plan for Rock Band DLC upgrades is shitty. You have to pay the full 1.99 again if you want keyboards/pro keyboards and vocal harmonies.[/QUOTE]Nothing unusual. SingStar will do the same things for songs which have dance and/or guitar added to them. When I bought PS3 versions of PSN games, I didn't get the PSP versions for free.
 
So I'm watching 16 and Pregnant, and I feel almost as worthless as the people on the show. Not because I'm watching this stupid show, but because I'm like "whoa, they think school's tough? I do too! And I also am discovering that I don't have time to do stuff because I'm so busy with shit. I'm just like them :("

and I'm not even joking.
 
[quote name='hankmecrankme']At least you didn't get knocked up by some dumbass dude who won't amount to anything past unskilled laborer.[/QUOTE]

mm.... yeah, but I feel like I haven't worked a day in my life (cuz I ain't never had a fulltime, real job), and I'm like shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit these dumbass dudes are going to pass me up and make me look like shit.

Stop watching that shit and get back to work. :cool:

Nah, bruh you're studying law for a high-paying career, and they are studying for what, their GED?
 
I'm just jealous, because I want to play Dead Space, but haven't been able to today or yesterday, and then I see these dumbasses who run off and go party with their friends while they're dumb, knocked-up girlfriend deals with some shit an I'm like "wtf am I doing with my life"
