CJacobs posted:There are a couple segments in Max Payne 3 where you fight enemies wearing bomb suits, which have full riot helmets and all that you can't shoot off. The solution? Shoot them in their head a thousand times, or feel like a real badass by pulling off a single precision shot on their completely exposed neck. It also helps that the shooting in Max Payne 3 feels fantastic. MGSV does a pretty good job of respecting the headshot = death/sleep rule with armor and them some penetration numbers you can make go up to shoot through the armor. Helmets fly off with the first sniper shot and then the head dies with the second. If you are fast you can hit them in the face/crotch depending on armor. The weird outcome of this is that Quiet who is canonically the best sniper of all time can’t work out how/when to not shoot people in the head.

So come Feb 2018, your strict ‘can I play as a girl with a bow’ criteria will be met in SoW. I just wanna play around as Celebrimbor again.

Grapplejack posted:I'd argue that it would have been a lot better for that second boss to let us just shoot him in the head, because what he gets is a whole loving lot worse. Very true. I really love that Max's personal point of view is so hosed at that point that shooting him to put him out of his misery after is the wrong thing to do for Max as a character.

Hey who are those newcomers?" quote:In October of 1943, Nintendo released a Backgammon board intended for kids that featured several images that promoted Japan's involvement in the war. All of the images were of different types of animals dressed up as soldiers. Perhaps the most interesting image is of a bunny rabbit and a turtle waving the Japanese flag on a gun with torn up American and British flags laying down at the bottom of the hill they're standing on. Mario, "Uhhhh..."

The Rabbids are actually on the side of freedom. XCOM2 starts with the freedom fighters blowing up a giant statue of an alien erected by the alien overlords. Mario + Rabbids starts with the Rabbids blowing up a giant statue of Princess Peach erected by Princess Peach

Heat Signature is doing an event for Space Halloween where if you die in your character turns into a living skeleton and also when a mission mentions that a ship is manned by a "skeleton crew" it is both figurative and literal now.

The X series is so weird in that overall I think it's mostly terrible or at least forgettable but it also features what I, too, would call the best overall game in the franchise in Mega Man X.

for me it's all pretty close between mega man 2, 3, and x1 as the best megaman. i have no strong feelings between the three but it's definitely one of them

A huge article about the eventual closure of Visceral and their Star Wars game. This is my favorite part: quote:Two former Visceral staff recall EA looking at Ragtag and asking where Chewbacca was. “EA would get obsessed with market research and start asking people what’s important to them about Star Wars,” said a former staff member. “You’d get, ‘Oh, the Force, lightsabers, the usual Jedi continuum.’ They’re hyper focused on that stuff, and it’d be a topic of conversation in every pitch meeting.” "Where's Chewbacca?" "Sir this is a game about Ewok reproduction there's no role for Chew-" "WHERE. IS. CHEWBACCA?"

mega man zero 3 and 4 are very different from regular mega man but i'd say have the strongest design overall. x feels too stiff to me and i'm still not hot on the boss design, but i can replay zero 3 and 4 pretty much forever

it is very likely that the only two i tried were the first zero game and the first ds zero game (which i think was zx) so that makes sense

I can't believe there are people who have presumably been fans of Star Wars for 40+ years at this point and still froth at the mouth every time Chewbacca appears onscreen like some kind of trained animal.
