I haven't picked up the last of us since that bit in the hotel basement where you turn on a generator and an army of scary spooky skeletons or something suddenly shows up. I hate that poo poo lots.

That section lasts a whopping five minutes so you must hate them a whole lot.

It also glitched the gently caress out for me so I was easily able to run through the entire thing while they and the big dude got stuck on everything so

The sewer levels in Revengeance are great. Because they are revengeance levels.

I thought Mastiffs were a fun enemy to fight. gently caress that one optional fight where you're in a cramped room with 3 of them though, the camera sucked poo poo in that fight.

ayn rand hand job posted:Seattle actually has a multi storied death trap maze under its streets, so not sure that's really worth getting mad about. That would have been cool but Deadlight's rat den was a mix between a sewer and the scene where Luke is fighting Darth Vader in Bespin. The problem with sewer levels is twofold: raise-the-water puzzles and narrow-catwalk-maze puzzles. Raising water is just a bad puzzle, stop it designers. And between Silent Hill and Xenogears my patience for navigating a maze of catwalks that you have to crisscross with no map or landmark is at its limit. Sewers are creepy and make good ambiance but I don't know how you'd fix them. al-azad fucked around with this message at 00:13 on Mar 17, 2015 |

Pepsiman had the only tolerable sewer level. And maybe RE4 but only because you could constantly hammer the QTE button and start kicking invisible bugs out of the air.

Resident Evil 2 had a good sewer section for the simple fact it was really short and had a giant rear end alligator.

Yeah that was legit terrifying in RE2. gently caress that's such a good game. Did any of y'all play through RE2 both ways? Sewer levels are like the most late 90s, early 2000s game thing.

I got RE2 after busting my rear end for an all A report card. Over spring break I played Leon A to Claire B, Claire A to Leon B, then mastered Hunk and Tofu. I want to dig it out right now. e: Wow, I found my Versus guide. I got a Gameshark just so I could use the codes that let you see the unused backgrounds. al-azad fucked around with this message at 01:31 on Mar 17, 2015 |

I played both orders of the campaigns, I'm partial to Leon A/Claire B even though the opposite has a bigger climax.

Never played through 2 past the first few stages, but Sewer Gator is the first boss in the first Parasite Eve. It's a'ite.

I'd be happy if I could whip up some low-effort horror game and have a couple of shmucks throw a bunch of cash my way. If anything these games should be teaching people to shop smartly so it's win/win for all

How the gently caress do you have a 'falling out' with Hideo Kojima? You do whatever the gently caress that man says, because he will make you millions of dollars. gently caress. I was really excited to see my favorite game dev reboot one of my favorite game series. Del Toro can suck my balls. He isn't even the Del Toro that makes horror movies, that's a different Del Toro.

It's Guillermo Del Toro, who wrote and directed The Devil's Backbone, Pan's Labyrinth, and loads of other good horror poo poo, and Mimic. The only other Del Toro I know is Benicio, who is almost strictly an actor. Unless there's some secret third famous Del Toro I don't know about who specializes in even surreal-er horror.

That "falling out" must've been intense as hell for Konami to let their only remaining money-maker go. drat. Super bummed about this. Pretty much no way Silent Hills won't just get canceled at this point, and even if it doesn't it won't be anything like what P.T. set up.

This is about the point where we find out they'd barely done any work on the game, isn't it. I don't know how any one company can shoot themselves in the foot this badly. They gave Kojima carte blanche to screw with the player, an activity he loves only slightly less than elaborate plots and movie references. Hell, they could've called the new game Hideo Kojima Fucks With Your Head and it would've sold millions. This must've been beyond ugly for a split like this to happen.
