I've played like 10 hours of Pachinko to get trophies in the Yakuza games and I have no idea what the rules are

You keep shooting the tiny balls and then a video starts playing which ends with you losing at slots 90% of the time

Maybe it's really fun once you know what you're doing. Like fantasy football

Pachinko is cool because it gave us the Bog arc in Kaiji

Shoot a ball. Get a cutscene. Wish it was an actual game remake.

Still a good game in spite of that tho. My party was mostly made up of the french guy trained in brazillian ninjutsu, the drunken mafioso cat, the 16 year-old private detective with the lightsaber, and the mexican dude in with the guitar that turns into a flamethrower/rocket launcher/machine gun/shot gun/whatever

Lol at the end of the transformations when the camera flies into her vag/butthole/boobs

night dive needs to spend all of the money they make on system shock remake to buy the rights to shadow hearts away from the pachinko menace

I would pay full price for all the Shadow Hearts game on PC and I already own hard copies of all the games, even Koudelka.

Did a double take at this post, thought it was a title for one of those J-novels.

Having never played Grim Fandango, I finally got around to that, and it's awesome. :3:

Also, having never finished a LucasArts game without looking stuff up online for it, I decided to try and do this one all by myself. Despite a few setbacks like not thinking to try the spare arm in the snow grinder for way too long it didn't go too badly. Feels real good to finish a classic for the first time without any outside assistance.

Is it just me or does Federation Force look really rather bad?

I'm late on this, but it's by the studio who brought us Punch-Out, Mario Strikers and Luigi's Mansion 2. Could be good, right?

I don't think anyone wants Federation Force. It's got nothing Metroid fans would want, it's not as interesting as other things Next Level could be doing instead, and it looks kinda boring on its own merits.

The Wii version probably makes things too easy as you were never intended to have that level of control over the shooting but.... it feels good

RE4 is a game so good that every time I hear someone mention it I think about it for 5 seconds an then kinda want to play it again

hmmm should I use the TMP this time or not

what is the most badass gun in RE4 answer it's the Broken Butterfly

Usually when people refer to a game or mbira or whatever as something "no one wanted or asked for" I think they're being dramatic but really no aspect of Federation Force is something I think a single person actually wanted
