d3lness posted:On a game note, I'm happy EO: mystery dungeon 2 didn't come to the US. I just tried getting into 1 yet again and boy howdy does mystery dungeon combat not work with EO. Especially when you have to fight in a hallway and the back AI just decides to take a vacation. Oh, manually controlling your party of 4 would fix that? To bad it uses your burst because reasons! Yeah that was one of those games that sounded great on paper but like 8 minutes in you realize you'd be having much more fun either playing a real EO-style dungeon crawler or a proper Mystery Dungeon style roguelike. The way they mashed them together feels like a weird romhack.

im from a gunfree society so i cant really tell the difference tbh guns should just obey gameplay necessity. in l4d it's okay that some enemies are spongy because it's supposed to be this massive horde you're fighting. in a regular fps i want the shotgun to have whatever the most satisfying sound effect is with some ridiculous spread but very high point blank damage, because that's cool. pistols should also all make a BLAM BLAM BLAM sound

!Klams posted:One of my friends is 'not a gamer', like he doesn't get on with computer games, but he's always kind of into the 'idea' of playing them, he obviously enjoys the power fantasy of it, and he's super into cutscenes, and lore etc, he just didn't really grow up with it much, so he's not very skilled at it and has zero interest in losing at a game. So, now and then something will come along that I think might tickle his fancy, and I try and rope him in coz it's fun to play with him. He's got the right idea- play games to your own satisfaction, no more and no less. A lot of games are really bad about this and basically try to hide it with smoke and mirrors. (of course, good game design is also smoke and mirrors, but used better)

EimiYoshikawa posted:Possibly the worst mission in the series, not counting some of the RC missions in SF that are more busted because of their control limitations. The rhythm mini-game missions are pretty bad on San Andreas when played on the PC. Porting the game to PC screwed up the timing, so if you actually tap the buttons to the rhythm of the music, you'll fail the missions every time. For one of them, the game confuses the up button and the down button, so you have to remap them backwards to be able follow the instructions on the screen and get the taps to register. The Zero missions weren't that bad on the PC version. Maybe they fixed them? I remember the one where you had to blow up the courier vans and dirt bikers was difficult on PS2.

The way they mashed them together feels like a weird romhack. That's basically what I did. I ended picking Chocobo MD back up and I'm having a blast with it. I've finally started to enjoy rougelikes because I stopped giving a poo poo about dying. Mind you that my first game in the genre was Dungeons of Dreadmore and that game set the bar fairly high. In regards to Vermintide 2, it's a great game to hang out with my friends for a few hours and shoot the poo poo. That's the reason I'm so pissed with the newest expansion. It's not a super complex game, but beating the piss out of my favorite WH faction with meaty thuds and squelches is uniquely satisfying. I also looked up the new class + it's separate cosmetic bundle. What the loving piss Fatshark.

The PC version came with the Zero missions already patched with the updated fuel system, I think. If they didn’t the patch was available right away.

but in call of juarez your cowboy doesnt fight a pistol duel by dodging all of your opponents bullets in an elaborate dance and then fires his shot by bending over and doing a "peek a boo" through his own legs, like in the game im imagining right now

All but one of the CoJ games are good (the Cartel blows so bad they don’t sell it anymore) but Gunslinger is excellent. The first one is good, Bound in Blood is really loving good, but Gunslinger sets out to do one thing and executes it perfectly.

Someone mentioned it is one of the more profitable things Capcom has ever made and a large part of why they were totally fine with the Resident Evil movies. The film made more than twice its budget back in theaters and on home theaters/cable syndication Capcom has racked up over $165 million since it came out. I really enjoy it even if its just an overstuffed mess, probably because its energetic and full of some great lines.

Better still, some of the big special effects were running away from them. “There was a scene where we blew up a temple,” says Heygate. “The art department built it,” he hastens to add. “The effects were only supposed to blow a quarter of it up but it got a bit out of hand. We had Jean-Claude, Kylie [Minogue, who played Cammy] and a bunch of other actors right outside it as it blew – and the whole thing went up. There was $240,000 of scaffolding and it just melted. But the sequence looked great.” Ming-Na Wen, who played Chun-Li, and underwent intense weight training in the lead up to the film, remembers it a little differently. “They were all big wussies,” she says, laughing. “I won’t name names, but I got into one of those brother-sister banter relationships with one of the other actors. I remember one day, I punched him so hard he cried. We were just goofing around!” Julia also drew the admiration and respect of his fellow actors. Terribly ill throughout the production, and accompanied by his wife and children – who may have known their time with him was limited – he gave everything he had to the Bison role. “It was a joy to be on the same set as him,” says Mammone. “He wasn’t a movie star, he wasn’t a celebrity – he was an actor in the true sense of the word. The focus and concentration he maintained are things that I’ve carried with me for the rest of my career. When he stepped on set, he was that character.” Seth, too, has fond memories. “He used to sneak out at night like a tomcat,” he says. “He would go off gambling with a big Havana cigar clenched between his teeth. I thought that was terrifically romantic.”

Red Dead Revolver came into existence as a “Ghouls n Ghosts to Maximo”-style reboot of the franchise before Capcom canned it and sold it off to Rockstar.

I'm still not sure why they decided to make that modern day cartel game. The only thing that stands out about the calls of juarezes (a series of games that I enjoyed) was that it was a cool wild west shooter. If you move that to the modern day, why, then it just seems like a generic shooter game.
