Today I learned that at least two members of Giant Bomb think that the eggs that they sell in supermarkets are fertilized.

Sometimes they are and it's very upsetting

They didn't just improve the combat, they redesigned everything. Like it's two completely different games with the same story and characters, it's really crazy

I have to turn my hand over and use my thumb to press the r button on my ds as hard as I can to make it work and it's making it really difficult to get through this part of castlevania order of ecclesia that's all spikes and magnets.

I've heard either blowing really hard or using some canned air at the opening where the button is will fix that.

do a charged r2 behind an enemy then when they fall down hit r1. doesn't work with the axe in 2 hand mode if you're using that because it'll just knock them on their face instead

Platinum demo doesn't play quite like the final game, though they seem to be pushing wait mode pretty hard and you can't see that outside of streams atm. They even added a skill tree for it in the day one patch.

God drat that looks fun. And yeah, teleport strikes like crazy--that's definitely the core mechanic.

Apparently the spellcrafting system can get pretty crazy. Spells share cooldowns like abilities in Mass Effect (use one spell, all of them go on cooldown) but they can also get stupid powerful. Also they apparently have friendly fire?

They do, your bros do not appreciate being blown up. They don't take full damage though, they might just be incapacitated for a bit. In one of that guy's videos you can see him using an Ignis ability that regroups everyone away from enemies and heals them, it's really helpful for getting magic off without hitting them. Positioning is a big deal in ff15.

Nothing about the platinum demo is representative of the final game, it's really bad. If you want to get an idea of what it really plays like spend a few minutes to set up a jp psn account and download the judgement disc demo.

a fun SNES game I never see anyone talk about is HyperZone. It was made by HAL and it's got some things in common with F-Zero but instead of a racing game it's a behind the back shoot-em-up like Space Harrier. You start out with kind of a cruddy yellow volkswagen of a ship but if you score well you unlock cooler ships with better weapons and a neat detail is that your entire HUD changes for each ship. Good music too, kind of sounds like it fell out of a Kirby game.

3 is good but also heinously difficult and i hate doc robot

someone told me people don't like 5 and i was surprised that people had strong opinions like that because they all seem pretty good to me, as someone who played 1 through 6 for the first time in the last week

in mega man 1 you slide forward a few pixels when you stop moving which i thought made it feel a lot worse than later games. didn't notice it until i tried the challenges in the collection that run you through different games one after another. felt like there was more delay on the jump too but maybe i just got used to it so i didn't notice it as much later

I also like Mega Man 5. The stage design gets really interesting in the later games. They're definitely easier that the early games but I think a lot of that is due to the game design getting dramatically better.

Gravity Man's stage is the poo poo and always the first stage I pick.

Crystal Man's nebulous falling crystal over pit bullshit can go gently caress itself, however.

Use the shield weapon, I can't remember who gives it to you (star man?) but you can just jump through the crystals without any trouble.

i think top man and magnet man are both pretty straightforward once you've seen their attacks a few times

i did needle man first and he was a real fucker so i don't recommend him

AC2 was cool because getting caught during missions was almost never an instant fail, then they put out some miserable dlc for it that was nothing but instant fails, and then they got the people who made that dlc to make Brotherhood and they filled that with instant fails too, so I didn't like Brotherhood.
