taking this to the general thread at the request of jruLamuella posted:Saints Row The Third was better than all of these. Cerebral Bore posted:It had a gang made up of Lucha guys, so this opinion ought to be uncontroversial. the lucha gang in SR3 sucks and is boring and the good guy luchadore who joins your crew named Angel de la Muerte is voiced by Hulk loving Hogan of all people so plbltbtbltlbtlt

jesus WEP posted:SR2 was my favourite too. The map was kinda generic and it was buggy as gently caress but literally everything else was amazing thats an interesting take actually because one of the complaints about SR3 from longtime SR2 fans was how Steelport, in comparison to Stilwater, was incredibly generic and none of the neighborhoods really had their own distinct identity, whereas every area of Stilwater felt unique to one another

NienNunb posted:Been watching the Toonami Aftermath stream a lot lately. I know it's boomer as gently caress but there's something about like 90s and early 2000's anime that works so much better for me than modern ones. Don't know if it's because I was a kid when I saw them, who knows?? Lots of modern anime looks cheap and has a lot of weird bloom and digital coloring, looks bad todd a lot of modern anime has a budget of about 50c and relies on a lot of shortcuts to look even passably good

I was also thinking of Medal of Honor. Like both of those franchises felt decently big when I was an adolescent but are more or less extinct at this point. SOCOM

Lid posted:i had not, but doing some digging i realised David Cage games are considered Adventure games. Maybe we should just kill it. to give you an idea, here is a breakdown of the first real "puzzle" of the game you, playing as a murder detective of New Scotland Yard, need to call a professor who works at a museum. In order to do this, you need to get the box of apple juice in your desk drawer, then you need to go into the lab and wipe down all the bottles of various chemicals on the shelf, then you need to ask the lab technician if he just sits around getting drunk all day considering he's surrounded by alcohol, which causes him to demonstrate to you how he does not sit around drinking all day by pouring you a glass of ethyl alcohol which you drink and pass out, then you need to go over to the bottles to see which one he picked up by dusting it for fingerprints and take it, then you go outside the museum where there is a homeless man who's flask you need to take, fill with the apple juice and ethyl alcohol to give to him under the pretense that its apple schnapps so the homeless man will drink it and pass out, so you can then steal his change to use at a pay phone outside the museum to call the professor inside the museum. there's a phone in your office at the police station, btw

JOHN CENA posted:whenever i think of paterson i think of when i was at my cousin's wife's funeral. we were in the car for the funeral procession when a minivan decided to gun an intersection and hit a motorcycle cop sending him flying. there was a guy on the street corner holding a bag of bagels and he was very split in dropping the bagels to help the cop who was just hit or hanging on to them, he instead just gently set them down against a wall and they fell over anyway. i think we were technically in carlstadt when this horror happened but i just always remember it being the most new jersey experience i've ever had. lmao

I Before E posted:Skyrim should have been our first warning about what AAA games were going to be in the PS4 generation but we didn't listen, so now every open world game is A Map With Things To Collect and as much as I like that that let Yakuza become a going concern in America I hate that none of the American games that share that formula (your Horizons, Spider-Man, Watch Dogsassin's Cry, Ghost Of Infamous, Sleeping Dogs, Batman after and maybe including Asylum) are anywhere near as good. dude that trend started in like 2009 with assassin's creed 2

also the points of comparison between all the games you mentioned are so surface level and thin that the entire premise is completely hosed there is literally no similarities between Yakuza 0 and Horizon: Zero Dawn other than "they have maps and side quests"

It obviously fell through but holy poo poo could you imagine how reprehensible that would have been. he did make that comic, but with Batman and Catwoman very lazily redesigned to circumvent copyright. its called Holy Terror. not to be confused with Batman: Holy Terror, the early 90s elseworlds miniseries about Batman in a Cromwellian Theocracy

It starts like Hardcore Harry, perspective-wise before letting you see the protagonist do her thing from a 2d/3d(?) perspective. only the beginning of the movie is like that, after the opening scene it becomes a traditionally shot movie
