  1. Jesus.. the twitter reactions to this being maybe a timed-exclusive Playstation thing is ridiculous. "Thanks for abandoning your fan base!" etc., etc.. Tim Schafer's reply feed is just full of "Hey, read my earlier tweet, angry man. The one about other platforms being announced later.."
  2. The E3 Retrospectapalooza

    It's procedurally generated. I'm really excited about this game. It seems to have some other stuff, combat and such. But even if it were just about exploring this procedural galaxy, discovering new species, I'm sold!
  3. Metroid Prime: Great Game or Greatest Game?

    It is the Great Game. Period. No discussion ALLOWED!
  4. The E3 Retrospectapalooza

    I absolutely love that No Man's Sky trailer. Also, the art and atmosphere in this ABZU trailer is just.. splendid!
  5. The E3 Retrospectapalooza

    Cuphead is old news, though. And aside from the AMAZING visual style, it looks like a completely impenetrable game of MegaMan-style boss fights.. Which makes me sad , but probably has its own little niche of people who love that stuff!
  6. The E3 Retrospectapalooza

    IRC is all the rage for this conference bizness.
  7. I would love it just one, single time in a game the AI does the line from Iron Man 3, "Don't shoot! Seriously, I don't even like working here." and then runs.
  8. The E3 Retrospectapalooza

    I liked neither game? Allowed?
  9. Game of Thrones (TV show)

    I don't mind the grimness to a degree and I actually kind of sort of enjoy the brutality of stuff like that. (In a way that makes me curse the show for doing it..?!) I guess I just like campy, genre stuff. I don't know. I still think there's plenty of good drama and intrigue left in the show to weigh the brutal stuff out. The Hound and Arya Stark are consistently entertaining. Pod and Brienne are great together. Even Sansa Stark is finally getting to do something interesting, potentially (even though the road to it was bumpy..) I enjoy it. But maybe I don't read/watch enough fantasy fiction to be annoyed by the current trends in there.. Ramsay The Crazy Hobbit Supervillain's stupid plotline can go away, though. Please. Holy shit.. Go away. EDIT: I do find myself wishing they'd do more episodes that are a bit more focused.. Less hopping around to check in on every situation and focus on a couple of plotlines and get some depth in there. I GUESS THERE WOULD BE TIME FOR MORE FOCUS IF RAMSAY WOULD SOD OFF AND NEVER RETURN!
  10. Movie/TV recommendations

    Well, this season's Ramsay plot is about the aftermath of the torture, not a season long torture scene, which is at least more interesting. I agree that the Ramsay stuff just shouldn't be there, at all, but at least it's minimal this time around. It's not been in *every* episode has it?
  11. The Nintendo Wii U is Great Thread

    I'm still just going through the single-player portion (I have a 4-player date on friday, though, which is exciting) but so far I'm still having a blast with just playing against AI. Maybe the fact that it's not even easy for me on 100cc is a factor into why I'm having fun with it. If it were no challenge at all I'd probably be bored.
  12. Game of Thrones (TV show)

    Why is everyone so bummed out about Game of Thrones? I haven't watched the last episode, but up until now this season has at least dropped the awful, awful, way too long Ramsay's torture plot. I'm loving what's been going on so far. That said, I have not read the books so I have no frame of reference as to how much more grim the series is trying to be..
  13. The Nintendo Wii U is Great Thread

    Hmm.. You might not like Mario Kart 8, then? There's still 12 racers. :S
  14. The Nintendo Wii U is Great Thread

    I have no idea what it actually is but I created a MK8 Tournament called "Idle Thumbs" with the code 0748-3415-1283
  15. The Nintendo Wii U is Great Thread

    16 x 666% = 105 consoles sold! Hooray! Oh, and Double Dash was fantastic. Mington, you obviously are no authority on Nintendo or its demise.
  16. Plug your shit

    Oh wow, I am hopelessly inadequate at this game!
  17. Plug your shit

    I did a poster for Peter Moorhead's game Stranded! I'm pretty happy with how it turned out! And you can buy it over here, everyone!
  18. The Nintendo Wii U is Great Thread

    Yeah, it saves a replay of highlights for each match! You can't speed it up, though (I think?!)
  19. I stand corrected. The aforementioned statement is true, only because he is always unlocked leaving us all happily able to play as him at all times.
  20. Video Game Baby - Idle Parents

    I think Humongous Entertainment's games are supposed to be good-ish and probably playable without much reading. Putt-Putt is available on iPad as well, I think..
  21. The Nintendo Wii U is Great Thread

    I played a couple of rounds and I'm pretty shit at it so far! Got my ass handed to me by someone who goes my the name palle, from Sweden. Anyone from around here?
  22. Elite: Dangerous (Kickstarter)

    Awesome consolidational effort! Also, good luck at E3! I'm getting more and more intrigued to see what becomes of Elite, so thanks for keeping us updated.
  23. The Nintendo Wii U is Great Thread

    I do not regret the purchase, but I bought it Pretty late at a fairly low price. I've already gotten more out of SM3DW than any game in the last years, so I'm pretty happy already. But I look forward to seeing what they come up with at E3.
