Welcome to the Imp Zone Game Club - Season 2. Somehow we've been doing this for a whole year!


IZGC Season 1 Thread

IZGC Rules:

• Your first post in this thread will be your Trophy Case - when you earn a trophy, grab it from the IZGC website and you can add it to your first post.
  
  
• Games and trophies are chosen by active IZGC members, who are picked randomly from a determination list each round. When the list is exhausted, it starts again and new members are added.
  
  
• Generally speaking it's encouraged to pick games that are relatively easy to emulate for as many imps as possible, and that don't take an extremely long time to finish.
  
  
• Here's the list of games chosen in Season 1.
  
  
• Platinum trophies are awarded for completing especially difficult challenges. They count the same as regular trophies on the leaderboards (except in the event of a tie) but they are shiny and worthy of boasting.
  

The IZGC website is meant to make trophy copying+pasting easier. Each IZGC member also gets their own trophy case which is automatically* updated with every trophy earned, and there's a leaderboard to track everyone's progress, and some cool web links.


*manually updated by the OP when I get a chance

Game details and links will go in the post below. Happy new year to all imps!

Try setting up two rockband bass pedals for jump and that dash respectively. Your inputs will never be eaten that way, and you'll really feel immersed in the rock and roll fueled world of Mega Man X!

What are some good SNES games that work well with a controller?

Should I look up how to get the hadouken or is it reasonably discoverable in game?

ive had a pick

Sub-Actuality posted:

I am figuring out some way to make Arch's idea from a while back work too by the way - having our normal game pick, plus a simultaneous long-term game pick running at the same time, for 20+ hour rpgs and stuff like that. I like the idea, would mean imps get to choose more often too

Because I've beaten X1 many times like a real gamer, this time I'll do the thing where you pick Chill Penguin last and go through half the game without the thing that makes this game fun.

saw this weird message after leaving the game idling for like fifteen minutes after the credits rolled, though. not sure what this is about. bad rom dump?

Clawmydia posted:

Thank you for the probation. Chill Penguin.gif has shown me the error of my ways. I have destroyed my keyboard and am currently composing this post using a pair of DK bongos.



: Find all the Armor Upgrades
: Find all Sub Tanks and Heart Tanks
: Hadouken!


: Finish the game

Excellent game, and the only one of the X series I've played. Last year, I was planning to play them all after marathoning the original series, but I burnt out during Megaman 7.

The first level is probably the best first level in history.

Sub-Actuality posted:

I've got a basic design for adding long-term games to the site working, I'll probably want to make it a bit more elegant later on but it's functional enough, despite Impo's influence.

What do you think imps - should we wait until the 10th and start 2 new games fresh, or should we roll for a long-term pick today?

Game 2-2



Shin Megami Tensei: Digital Devil Saga (PS2) - 2005 - Deadline 1/31/23 11:59EST

_{Digital Devil Saga follows the Embryon, a tribe who fights against five other tribes in a digital world called the Junkyard. After being infected with a demon virus that grants them demonic powers, the Embryon must fight with and devour the other tribes to ascend to "Nirvana".}





Digital Devil Saga began development pre-2002 under the working title New Goddess. The game's concept and original draft were written by Japanese author Yu Godai, who collaborated with Atlus scriptwriter Tadashi Satomi until withdrawing from the project for health issues. The gameplay concept of characters transforming into demons was based on an unused idea for Shin Megami Tensei.



It's SMT, soundtrack is obviously great:

Piggly must pay for their crimes. It would be so chill to hang out with my local Proprietor when purchasing large volumes of salt, butter and flour.

frankly this. piggly wiggly is fail for forcing me to wander aimlessly through a grocery store for like 30+ minutes to get my list instead of letting a kindly professional with total spacial expertise at the local general store gather my sundries for me in mere moments
