I don't even really care about Pokemon but it still bothers me immensely that the video title is Pokemon Go Pasta.

Kingdoms of Amalur is the most boring fake looking game I've ever seen or played and it always baffled me that somebody could have played it for longer than the tutorial and not actually be a character in a Law and Order episode.

These people are doing the best remakes. They redraw lots of the graphics but stay so true to the original art style that you might not even notice they've done it. And they're using the higher res to let you see more around you which will probably make the game play a lot better. So awesome

Did they ever adjust the Wild Guns remake to have another difficulty level or to otherwise be balanced towards anything other than four characters at once?

the frustrating thing about shadow hearts is that a company definitely has midway's game rights and has re-licensed various properties, but they just won't with shadow hearts for some reason

the closest we were going to get was a port of the not-very-good kouldeka to steam that never happened because I think the company that was gonna do it went out of business

Midway only published a couple of the games in the west, they kinda have nothing to do with it.

The company that owns it is just now a vague entertainment company that doesn't reallly make games anymore.

not only was it ok the game kept running even though the lid opened (which i now understand was because the data was already loaded but whatever) so i closed it thinking that would fix it and while she could run around the game had basically lost her place and wouldn’t respond to any triggers. from what i remember anyway like i said it was 20 years ago

I never did a sweet flip but I used to have my systems set on top of the TV because CRTs were loving huge so whatever, but the idea got weaned out of me the time I was playing BoFIII and right as I go through a door in-game I accidentally yanked the cord on the controller too hard because it got caught on the side of the TV and pulled the whole system off and crashed onto the floor. The disc tray popped open on the way down, and shot the disc out.

It didn't unplug and lose power though, so it had enough time apparently to load the next area before it finished falling. I popped the disc back in and the game worked like normal.

Of course then my baby cousin would one day break into my games stored in a CD wallet and ended up snapping it in half anyway later on.

Anybody play the mm11 demo yet?
It has a stage, 2 boss powers, and rush coil unlocked.

Music doesnt rate against the classics, idk ymmv.
Stage is pretty drat hard. Lots of places where you are encouraged to use bullet time to make it through tho they added super easy difficulty modes where you might not have to.
Boss is ok. Seems more about the spectacle of his giant form than anything else tho.
Art is kinda bland.

Not sure if I'll get it for 30 dollars. Having to manage a cooldown for you slowmo meter is a really weird gimmick for megaman but im interested to see what they do with it beyond the demo level.

I got through the demo without using the gear system at all, so it seems good to me. I don't think I ever was that excited about this game's music.

You can tells the devs tried to backpedal on that as hard as they could because the game just portrays the terrorists like COBRA with no real political affiliations.

I distinctly remember reading a pre-launch interview in I think play magazine where they said the inspiration for the organization and the leader was just the old g.i. joe cartoon.

I play harder games now because I have more patience compared to when I was a sugar-addled monster.

And also because a lot of the things that made games hard for me was usually me flat out not understanding something.

I've now beaten two SMT games, which is still amazing considering how many of them I bought back in the day and never really played.

is the frozen wilds worth doing. i'm about 5 quests from the end of the main horizon campaign

I told myself when I beat the vanilla game that I was going to come back to it later maybe a few months down the line. But then I couldn't stop thinking about the game, bought the DLC maybe two weeks later and devoured it.

Yeah, it's a great DLC.
