We chat about videogames and videogame accessories.

I remember Riven...the Myst series was my favorite when I was a kid, and is still one of my favorites.

Well, sure, Myst is pretty...

I like the way PlayStation black discs look, but then I never was so careless with a game in my possession that the disc got scratched. Ever. Stuff was like gold. Except worthless if scratched, and easily scratchable. So maybe not like gold.

strange that they would not use the tablet instead, though...

yeah, people should really stop using exploits right in front of the nintendo staff

as for the xbox, i find it hard to press the black/white buttons ON PURPOSE due to the awkward positioning

It's not an exclusive, but I got a lot of mileage out of Super Monkey Ball Deluxe on the XBox. Not sure how it compares with the PS2 version. Also Metal Slug 3 but that has a dozen different versions, I'm sure.

Armed and Dangerous is an Xbox game that I've only actually seen a Let's Play of, but it's funny, it's got a villain voiced by Tony Jay, and it's got weapons that include a Land Shark Gun, which launches a shark into the ground to swim up to and eat your enemies, and a Gravity Gun, which causes your enemies to fall into the sky. And apparently it's 360 compatible?
Third person shooter that thrives on ridiculous, more or less.


...apparently there was a PC version I had no idea existed.

I’m afraid that’s not true. They always know about these things. They wouldn’t make warnings and safety features unless something happened. This is a country where people have to be told not to touch the third rail, and where we found out the hard way that nuclear control mechanisms really can’t be done by hand.

And as a programmer, I know Microsoft Research. They are thorough.

Very thorough.

i do hope the rest of the post made it clear that was a joke ;P

horse_ebooks is dead

something infinitely more terrifying has taken its place

This is a real thing that is going to happen.

I don't know what would be sadder - this being a response to Mighty No. 9's runaway success, or this being in the works since before its announcement.

megaman is fucking dead

I'm honestly a little surprised Capcom even allowed the licensing deal to go through, tbh

Based on their recent conduct I would assume their response would be more like "ARE YOU CRAZY? DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY, KIDDO" and shoving them out the door.

who's megaman

He was that dude that made a ot of puns and liked basketball and peas. One pea.

nooooooooooooooooooooope

couldn't even watch the whole thing

who thought this was a good idea

fuck

I can't

The LoK games is possibly my all-time favourite game series, for the utterly superb voice acting, and the enjoyably overwrought delivery and hideously complicated plot and this

Raziel is one of the most powerful characters in the series and he can't do half the shit the vampire grunts can apparently do in this

what even possessed them to take the series and do this with it

Terry Cavanagh (VVVVVV, Super Hexagon) presents “If You Thought I Hated Your Eyeballs Before Well Get A Load of This”.

He was that dude that made a ot of puns and liked basketball and peas. One pea.

I will always only like that pea Slorange, no matter where the path of my life takes me. Always only that one pea.

I for one accept our new touchpad controller overlords.

time to check steam store for the half-life three announceWAT

it's... so... black...
my heart is filled with dark desires

even though I'm skeptical that a non-awful trackpad is even possible

Quality trackpads can be damn good upgrade from joystacks, I think. Seems like it would be flow far more naturally with the thumb's dexterity

Joysticks can probably be modded in for the


sticklers in any case

At least we're getting a controller that will almost definitely work for them games what require one

I think that just means you have the option to point mouse-style (point at the spot) instead of stick-style (point where you want to steer).

I am super interested in this thing, and have no clue how it might feel. I really want to try it out.

but hey out of the 140k+ people who have signed up for the beta program maybe i will be one of the lucky few to get one!!!
