Ryan from AVGN is a good pleasant dude to watch and he should be in more videos again The side scrolling parts from Actraiser are probably the best action platforming on the SNES Shibawanko fucked around with this message at 21:19 on Oct 12, 2019 |

Lodin posted:Rebel Galaxy Outlaw (again) easily has the best space game soundtrack since it's all shitkicker steel guitar. It also has several radio stations that all play music you'd get if you were cruising down some highway in the South. Personally I prefer the Latino station. Well this is just wrong since Homeworld & and Homeworld Cataclysm exist: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6WbvIEL5Iyk&t=1499s also (maybe?) unpopular video game opinion: While homeworld is one of the best games ever made, Cataclysm is even better. It is also one of the better horror games.

Homeworld and Homeworld Cataclysm are amazing games that place huge emotional arcs on single line delivery and it works. The end of Cataclysm rules.

I'm an old Cinemassacre fan who understands the old days aren't coming back. It's best to just fire up an AVGN episode from like 2007 that one hasn't seen in a while to get the original experience. I just liked it when it was Rolfe in his basement making these videos with his own time, money and energy. But, Screenwave is here and at least AVGN has its moments still.

signalnoise posted:Actraiser 2 is worse than Actraiser 1 in what way is this one unpopular like i respect actraiser 2's monster design game. that's strong as h*ck, no game in history since has ever come close to topping Pride. but the rest of it, the blind jumps, the shifty rear end gliding, the bosses with instant-kill frames to keep you from spamming attack on them, locking you out of the ending just as you reach the final area unless you're playing on the hardest difficulty... it barely qualifies as playable at that point Fur20 fucked around with this message at 10:57 on Oct 13, 2019 |

TheScott2K posted:Commander Keen was never good. You just liked it because it was on your parents' computer. Bethesda can do what they want with it. His titles were the 2D equivalent of a collect-a-thon with weird nonsensical level design. They never designed the games around the one feature that's somewhat uncommon (his pogostick). The music is typical pc speaker blurby blorby garbage too. That being said, I loved it as a kid.

Playing Dead Space again. The lighting, shadows and sound design are spectacular. I had to run the game in Windows XP SP3 mode on my Windows 10 machine. Grrr, I just got to the part where I have to shoot the meteorites before they crash into the ship. This part is so out of place. Who the hell thought this was a good idea? tango alpha delta fucked around with this message at 04:02 on Oct 15, 2019 |

The White Dragon posted:in what way is this one unpopular Yeah I'm a big Quintet guy but Actraiser 2 is just unpleasant to play. I like the monster designs too and the themes but the sound effects are just straight up recycled and don't match the graphics design and that world map begs for a town building game. I loved town building in Actraiser, just so relaxing and fun.

I can't stand him solo, with James it's ok. I love what's been happening with rental reviews, it's one of the best monster madness so far. A good time to be a retro fan.

They didn't talk about Gremlins enough, their discussion was really superficial which was disappointing since there's really quite a lot to say about Gremlins

The camera angle in Shadow of the Colossus makes the game unplayable. Why the gently caress is it pointed so low? Years after giving up on the original I gave it another shot on ps now. Nope, they ruined that game.

Harrow posted:Yeah, one problem is that JRPG is a very bad label because a literal reading of it would be "any RPG from Japan," but I don't think that's a useful genre category to define. I wouldn't consider Dark Souls a JRPG, even though it's an RPG that comes from Japan. I would consider Anachronox a JRPG, even though it was made in the US, because it has all the mechanical genre elements that the archetypal JRPGs have. Jesus. gently caress all of you. Jrpg. Japan.

My dad got shot to death by the Salafi jihadists and I lost my mother and sister to the American drones. I also didn't have a house anymore since the islamic state leveled the entire block with a suicide bombing. With no house and no family I basically had to join the free syrian army and fight for my continued survival, which made watching Pokemon extremely difficult
