Sir John Feelgood posted:In third grade I moved to a new town. If you've ever experienced this, you know that you wind up hanging out with a lot of different people before you figure out who your real friends are. Well one of the people I hung out with in this trying-people-out phase was a kid named Brian. He had a big square head and was extremely shy and was always grimacing for some reason. Looking back there was probably something wrong with him. But he was one of the only kids in class with a Game Boy and Pokemon, so I invited him over because I didn't have a Game Boy and I wanted him to show me the game. We wound up sitting in my basement with him gripping the Game Boy and me just listening to him breathe. I tried to talk to him about the game but he would only let out a few words. Just totally focused on the game. Finally I asked him if I could play, and he very reluctantly handed me the Game Boy and started a New Game because he didn't want me playing his (fine) and told me very emphatically not to save. In the opening part of the game, I didn't know what to do. I was wandering around like a total noob (and I was one). I was lost. So I asked him, "Hey, Brian, can you help me out here?" And he told me I had to find Professor Oak's coffee. That's what I had to do. Find Oak's coffee. I was like, drat, OK, coffee, right. I spent like ten minutes wandering around trying to find his coffee, going in all the houses and stuff. Finally he offered to just do it for me so I handed him back the Game Boy. He didn't give it back to me and eventually his mom picked him up and took him home. Later on I found out of course that's not what you do. There's no freaking coffee. He was lying to me. He just wanted the game back. It was the biggest gaming lie I believed. zen death robot posted:You learned a valuable lesson don't hang out with Brian Acquire Currency! posted:Yeah it's actually B+Down Actually it's B+Up and then you rotate a full circle counter-clockwise each time the ball shakes

If you swim far enough in a certain direction in Morrowind you encounter the biggest creature in the game, a giant sea monster. I tried this and the dude who told me said "nah you must have just swum in the wrong direction" so I checked the construction set and found no record of any such creature.

They got better but once people learned how to design games in 3D things stagnated and here we are today.

Yeah, that makes sense. I did enjoy the spritework for the games that still used it like BoF 3 & IV from that era. That was incredible stuff.

-That the XBOX was huge (it was normal size) -That Xbox ONE loving sucks (its actually a really good buy at 350 dollars now) -That Halo is gay (its actually one of the best FPS of all time, and with good reason)

THE PENETRATOR posted:who would dare tell this lie One of my co-workers thinks it is the worst. I was stunned when I discovered that. Honestly I loved the atmosphere of the city in ODST, wandering around, and trying to piece together what happened to the rest of your squad. It including Halo 3 MP and all the map packs was just the icing on an already good deal. I think if Destiny had been more like ODST in terms of atmosphere and level design it would have been one of the best games this year.

seiferguy posted:That you could get General Leo later on in FF6.  You kinda can if you abuse the hell out of the Early Airship glitch but yeah I believed this too and spent a long time doing dumb poo poo to make it work. Same with the idea of doing something with Sigfried after you see him and his buddies in the WoR cave.

there was this kid in middle school (7th grade i think) who i guess had not outgrown making up just ridiculous poo poo like how he owned 300 genesis games or how he could do a standing backflip (dude was like 200 lbs). he told me that in road rash 2 you if the police officer came to bust you he had a shotgun you could snatch off of him and use against other riders. i envy children today who can just take out their smartphone and factcheck these people in real time
