Snak posted:How is it that YOU FUCKERS talk about METROIDVANIAS every week and I have to find out about SLAIN: Back from Hell from Penny Arcade's First 15?!?!!! It's not a metroidvania, it's more like a classic Castlevania game. It was also really loving bad at launch but eventually got patched into something decent.

Quest For Glory II posted:because people had a really bad first impression of Slain when it first came out and it only got patched later Oh. Okay. edit: Castlevania games don't belong under the metroidvania umbrella? what the gently caress? It's cool, the PSStore crashed when I tried to buy it just now.

I used our Vita for remote play once, got frustrated at the input lag and just said gently caress it Is Psycho Pass: Mandatory Happiness worth 20 American dollars? Given the caveat that yes, I do enjoy stupid anime bullshit

Lurdiak posted:It ironically would be more interesting to me if it didn't so hard into camp and attempts at comedy. An actual serious take on the ridiculous "gritty dystopian cyberpunk mushroom kingdom" concept would kind of be admirable. Instead they sort of use the humor to be like "heh, isn't this idea dumb? If you don't like it it's because we're being ironic", which is insufferable. I never got a sense of irony from the movie, it always felt very sincere to me. oddium posted:100 foot robot golf What ended up being bad about this? I mean, I thought it looked slow and not that fun but I'm curious what someone who actually played it has to say about it.

Though Wii-U services might last a long rear end time. Isn't the Shop Channel still active on the original Wii? And yes, Splatoon and Mario Maker factored heavily into it, though I suspect they will get sequels/updates on future systems.

SLAIN: Back from Hell is pretty fun so far, but I never played much Castlevania, so probably the gameplay is not up to snuff. Great soundtrack so far, though. Also, executing a boss after the fight and then headbanging as a giant fountain of blood continually gushes from their neck is pretty cool. edit: also, fuckin lol Snak fucked around with this message at 22:28 on Dec 21, 2016 |

Ugh man.. all this talk about the Wii U and I keep forgetting to buy it. I know you guys will say buy it, believe me I wanna. But I'm gonna be unemployed soon and taking a break from QA because all the crunch hours(also surprise I was QA for Telltale) so I want to save up much as I can. One of these days I will get a Wii U. Sigh.. one day Bayonetta 2. One day.
