[quote name='ArthurDigbySellers']Kotaku reports that they will be $49.95 and that they go on sale tomorrow....but they could have just pulled that info from someone's blog ;)

EDIT: I also think you need to be a member of the Capcom unity site or you aren't eligible.[/QUOTE]

What's in a kit for $50 and what's a capcom unity site?
 
[quote name='corrosivefrost']distgfx is too. he's talking about hair coming out of portals and sucker punching a fool.[/quote]

Shit, I'm caught! Quick, to the bat cave!

[quote name='pochaccoheaven']the real joke about megaman 9 lies on the graphics. the "hardcore" always rants about the graphics. yet megaman 9 isn't heavy on the graphics. it contradicts the "hardcore" motto.

this backs up nintendo's reasons about graphics, that it's become a commodity. look at dx9 and dx10, you can tell the difference if you stop and look at the games environments and such. but while playing a game you will barely notice a difference.[/quote]

MM9 is aimed towards those who are dying for a piece of the past MM games. So uh... what is the hardcore motto exactly that you speak of?
 
[quote name='Kendal']That shit is awesome. What game is it? When is it coming out, if not arleady? I wanna hair punch a fool![/QUOTE]

Bayonetta... new Sega game by the guy who made DMC, I think.

Hardcore = people who like to play through DMC and Ninja Gaiden games on the excruciatingly difficult difficulties.... at least to me. If the hardcore crowd loved teh grafix so much, they'd have shunned DMC3, cause it looked like ass.
 
Ok, pocha. You make no sense whatsoever. And I really tried to understand, too. I cannot tell if you are a rabid Nintendo fanboy, a Mega Man hater, a hardcore gamer, a goof-ball user, or regalsin.

And this:
[quote name='pochaccoheaven'] 3)it's true that the wii is a better version of the wii. but it was for backward compatability. remember xbox and xbox 360? what happened when they changed companies. the backwards compatability of the wii is one of the important parts of nintendo's business models.[/quote]

The Wii is a better version of the Wii?????

And Xbox and Xbox 360 changed companies????

I am sorry dude. Really. I am.

I think he meant to confirm what I said, where I asserted that the wii was just a gamecube and a portion of another taped to it. :D That's the reason the BC is just about flawless for N64 gamecube games on the gamecube Wii. It's the same system. With a slightly better GPU, a wireless card, an SD card slot, with integrated gamecube motion control accessory. ;)
 
[quote name='Dr Mario Kart']He's talking about the graphics card company change from Nvidia to ATI between the xbox1 and 360, and its effect on BC.[/QUOTE]

They changed everything though, which is why the 360 does BC via software with updates. Wii does BC via hardware, like the PS3 did originally, doesn't it? That's why, save for a few games with specialized controllers (GH2), BC was pretty much flawless between PS2 and 20/60gb PS3 models.
 
Been lurking. You all are still replying to that guy?

Also, I want to know precisely what's going on in the second Bayonetta pic Jekki posted. Looks like some kind of Sailor Moon/Cutey Honey transformation sequence.

[quote name='daroga']What?[/quote]

I'm guessing what he's trying to say is that hardcore games care about the graphics , yet megaman 9 , which is designed for the hardcore gamers , has really "bad" graphics. however.....

[quote name='corrosivefrost']Hardcore = people who like to play through DMC and Ninja Gaiden games on the excruciatingly difficult difficulties.... at least to me. If the hardcore crowd loved teh grafix so much, they'd have shunned DMC3, cause it looked like ass.[/quote]

This is a more accurate description of a hardcore gamer. Though I can't comment on DMC3 looking like ass.
 
Oh. Ok.

Cause either English ain't his native language, or he's too busy gettin high in school. I guess no one's ever taught him to communicate in complete sentences maybe. Who knows.

Guess I'll go play me some DQIV and then take a nap.
 
[quote name='blueshinra']Same here. Maybe he meant GTA3?[/quote]

Naw, he mentioned excrutiating difficulty levels and GTA3 has no difficulty level other than the default of course.
 
[quote name='benjamouth']There might not be one, DVD will probably hang on long enough until digital distrubution of movies kill physical discs completely.



I certainly do, people aren't gonna pay $30 for movies and digital distrubution will take over before Blu-ray can get a decent hold in the market.[/QUOTE]

[quote name='jer7583']Yeah, I don't own any Blu-Rays because they're too damned expensive.

DVD is just fine. I'll take a $15 DVD over a $20-30-40 Blu Ray anyday.[/QUOTE]


I pretty much agree with these. I don't think Blu Ray will die off, but it's not going to remotely supplant DVD as the dominant format. It's just too damn expensive when it just offers better A/V quality (DVDs offered extras, no rewinding, instant scene access etc. over VHS). I can't believe Blu Ray discs are still so expensive vs. DVD.

I have an HDTV and only watch HD programming other than some sports that aren't in HD, but DVD is fine with me. I'm not paying a premium to watch movies in HD as upconverted DVDs look fine to me. When Blu Ray players are $150 or less for decent ones I'll pick one up and at least use it with my Netflix rentals. Discs have to get to around current DVD prices ($15-20 new, with lots of sales after the first few months) for me to start buying movies on BR though.

Ohhh, good point. I'd forgotten about that. I just mentioned GTA3 since it was very popular with the "hardcore" and looks ugly as sin.

Anyway, DMC3 looks fine, IMO.

I thought DMC3 was horrible, graphics wise. Blocky and jaggy as all hell. To me, the original looked better.
Granted, it may have been that I was playing on a PS3 on a 42" LCD... but MGS3, We
 
[quote name='Jesus_S_Preston']Wow, LBP won't load levels and now it froze up.[/QUOTE]

Make sure you wear a condom and get yourself checked afterwards. LBP has been known to give people chlymedia or gonnoreaha or syphilis. :whistle2:#
 
[quote name='Ahadi']What are you looking to gameshare?

Totally messed with some people on a round of the building. They were being loud, so we knocked and told them that we received an anonymous tip that they had cocaine and alcohol. They shit kittens! Had to have been there and what not... :lol:[/quote]

Almost anything. If you could, give me a pm with the games you have and the price you want to gameshare for (in paypal $ or cash monies)

I picked up Final Fantasy IV DS for about a half hour today (Amazon lightning deal) and it seems good. I played a bit of the GBA one a couple of years ago and thought it was good.

I know people rag on Final Fantasy a lot, but when it comes to music, they are truly masters of the RPG realm.
 
[quote name='pochaccoheaven']forget i ever mentioned it. there are too many literal people here.[/quote]

who the hell is this clown?
 
Hey guys. Guess what I want to do right now. Play games. Big surprise there. I'm actually coding in COBOL. This fucking sucks.

[quote name='distgfx']Mystery solved gang.[/QUOTE]

Not exactly -- the rest of the games I mentioned didn't look anywhere near as bad as DMC3. I haven't popped Odin Sphere in yet, but I anticipate no problems there either, and Okami looked fine too.
 
Is it bad if the first thing I thought of when I woke up this morning was, "can I get a game of NBA2K09 in before work"? I wish b-ball season would start already so I can check out how the Living Rosters work. :p
 
[quote name='Jest']Gun, Is That Bayonetta?[/quote]


Sure is.




Or the latest Sarah Palin-themed porno, depending on your preference.

2D games all look pretty clean upscaled. Okami's style also lends itself to looking good upscaled. A plain 3D game like DMC3 will show some jaggies and stuff....but the game looks fine on an SDTV. It's not an overly jaggy game.
 
[quote name='JEKKI']whoo! MegaMan 9 press kit!!!

$63.02 after tax n shipping!!!

NEVER.MIND.

-_-...[/quote]

I like the press kit but not that much.
 
[quote name='Kendal']Disgaea DS=awesome.[/quote]
It's an ok port from what I have played. Which sadly wasn't that much... I burnt myself out on SRPGs playing Disgaea 3 when my 360 died.
 
I need to get Disgaea 3 one of these days.

Playing KoF again today. Still having a ton of fun, but still wanting a stick badly.
 
Wow. Just played the Valkyria Chronicles demo. It is awesome and I want this game now. What a great new take on the whole turn-based tactical RPG. Its on the European PSN now, btw, so you'll have to use a European account if you wanna try it out yourself. If you're a fan of the genre, I would recommend giving it a spin.
 
Three day weekend this weekend (that sounded redundant), so I'z at home, and that means no Witcher.

But that's okay! Because my Dreamcast game got here and wasn't even mangled or nothin'. I would take a picture, but I'm lazy, so I'll just say it: It's Border Down. Hell yeah. It was expensive, but I felt like I got a deal, given what it usually goes for new. So yeah. Gonna play that tonight, tho I gotta schedule around The Office.

Also kinda wanna try out Dino Crisis... or Mars Matrix. But definitely Border Down tonight.
 
God dammit I knew I'd miss those fucking Press kits.

Played like 2 seconds of warhead since I have sound. It's okay I guess, doesn't seem that special.

Probably some Burnout in a bit. Might open rhapsody. How much less will it be worth when I open it and play it for 5 seconds to find out I hate it/
 
I'm at my Aunt's house and they have a shit load of DVD's so I've been ripping movies onto my Macbook then compressing/converting them in anticipation of the iTouch.

You're making me soo jealous lol. I have enough cash to get one just not enough paypal.

I'd hate to think you were making copies of movies you don't own...

borrowing vs. ripping to watch...what's the difference? :lol:

What about God of War 2?
