I was kind of disappointed that they modified Wind Waker (outside of the graphics), I honestly loved exploring regardless how long it took with the sailing. I still think it looks amazing on Gamecube too, as do most Gamecube games actually. I'm still going to play the Wii U version when I pick one up, but that won't be until around Christmas. Plus, I have a shit-ton of PS3, Vita/PSP, Wii and Gamecube games to sort through.

 

 

 

it took me the longest time to come to terms with the upgraded graphics (still think they're inferior but WHATEVER).

when sailing around on the sea, it's near impossible to switch back to the original sailing speed. it's ... so... slow. not only does the red sail DOUBLE the speed of the original sail, the direction of the wind follows you as you turn so you don't have to play the song on the wind waker every time. gob smacked. it changes the game a little bit.

 

a friend offered his brothers copy of donkey kong jungle beat + congo drums for free (I offered money or anything in return but kept getting "nah don't worry about it he doesn't play it"). as for when this is happening I have no idea, but I seem to recall him mentioning having that Zelda collectors edition as well... I haven't played jungle beat. here's hoping i'll be able to post about playing that one soon :)

 

It probably is ten times better, but it's just my preference to preserve the original as much as possible etc.

 

I picked up a pair of bongos plus Donkey Konga 1+2 and Jungle Beat. Jungle Beat is meant to be amazing, I don't know why I overlooked it back then.

 

My copy of the Zelda collectors disc is with a copy of Mario Kart: Double Dash, I guess they bundled them together with the MK console? I also have the limited edition of WW with OoT and its master quest.

 

Also, if you haven't already, buy Earthbound. Shit's amazing.

 

uhhh yeah man earthbound is in my top 5 games EVER!

Mother 4 (or earthbound 3 or whatever) is coming out next year man!

ARE YOU READY?!

DO YOU EVEN LIFT NORMAN BRAH?

hehe

just got back into it as well, and yeah this is one of the most satisfying games I've ever played, lol. has a certain familiarity with the SNES super ghouls n' ghosts to me, probably just because I died like it was going out of style in that one too.

dark souls is just too damn pretty on top of its brutality, can't get enough.

Posted about this one a while back, but this is definitely a game I want to be saying I'm playing when it comes out:

I've never even played 1 and 3, I should probably just emulate them, it's not like they made it out west anyway.

I want to buy a PS4, but I still feel I'm like a year or so away from one. Did you pick it up on launch?

Late to the party but I just finished Dead Space 2 about an hour ago. Next-level survival horror. So many memorable parts... solar array jump, eye machine, lady hugging the grub baby, running from the regenerator when you're by the big marker... even the first few minutes when you're in the straightjacket are pure brilliance.

I'm not gonna bother with the third one as everyone I know that played it says they just turned it into a straight up non-horror 3rd person action game. Unfortunate.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Lost Alpha. It's been out for about three months now.

Technically it's more than just a mod for SoC - it's a free, standalone game. As I understand it, it's an overhaul from the ground up, depicting SoC "as it should've been" before final release. I'm only in the Cordon so far, but Dezowave has not only expanded on the textures and lighting, but also the maps, gameplay, NPCs, mutants, etc.

And Zombies aren't just brain-dead S.T.A.L.K.E.R.s who lumber around with guns. They're actually the type of zombies you'd expect from most games that include them.

I did get one at launch, like most new consoles you don't really need to but I can't help but get sucked in by the thrill of the new. I've since picked up a few Japan-only titles like Yakuza Ishin and AKIBA'STRIP 2 which have tided me over nicely outside of the domestic release schedule. Although it's going to get a few beefed up previous-gen updates like Diablo III, The Last of Us and GTA V soon, there are other things on the horizon like Destiny and Drive Club that should help to show its strengths outside of 'remasters'.

I was in the Destiny alpha and enjoyed my time with it - I'm hungry for more and can't wait for the beta this week - I played a lot of Halo on Xbox/360 so Bungie always get my attention, but this uber edition of the previous Halo titles on the Xbox One doesn't interest me. Yeah, playing the old classic map sets would be great, but it's not enough to make me invest in yet another box under the telly, paying for another online subscription to access multiplayer, etc (besides, PS+ is a much better investment and can pay for itself if you're smart).

anyone with a Wii U deluxe system should check your Deluxe Digital Promotion balance, if you ever bought anything off eShop, you might have a redemption code waiting. Don't delay, promotion ends in December.

Im PC. SO i have atleast a dozen games at any given time I have not played yet. Although the last new game I got called "Jagged Alliance 2" I could not understand at all. And I like strategy games. Looking forward to playing the witcher, bulletstorm, and dark souls though

Picked up the flavour of the month (year?) in Japan right now, Youkai Watch 2 (3DS) which came out last week:

It looks fantastic, probably one of the fanciest 3DS titles released so far... you'd expect nothing less from Level-5.

Oh yeah! I really want to play that, even though I haven't understood what it is all about. Hope it gets a European release.

So I've got the black 32gb one, is that the deluxe?

11GB pon the download

is there anyway 2 download the destiny beta without preorder for ps4??

also DOOM (4) gameplay was reveiled and it will be

• Fast-paced combat against multiple enemies at once - Doom 3 this ain't.
• Set outside a massive UAC research facility on Mars as it's being invaded by the forces of Hell.
• Hellknights, cyberdemons, revenants, mancubii, and other classic monsters were spotted throughout the demo.
• Classic Doom weapons, including the fan-favorite double-barrell shotgun return. Plasma rifle, rocket launcher, and the good old chainsaw were also shown off.
• Go fast. "Doom is not about about taking cover" said executive producer Marty Stratton.
• Doom is powered by IdTech 6, and will be for PC, PS4, and Xbox One. They are "committed" to 1080P at 60 frames-per-second.
• Wonderfully gory close range executions, including special ones for dropping down on enemies from above.
• Revenants now have jetpacks and can hover about while firing rockets at you.
• At least one weapon, the combat shotgun, has an alternate fire mode, which allows you to charge up and release multiple shells in rapid succession.
• Sprinting, double-jumping and mantling are all possible, making for very fluid motion during combat.
• Enemies can teleport in for old-school style ambushes
• Dying results in a crazy fatality scene depending on what killed you a la Dead Space. Revenants rip your arms off and punch straight through your combat helment.
• Old school mechanics. No reloading your clip, hold as many weapons as you want, health and ammo pick-ups etc. NO REGENERATING HEALTH.

JESUS YOU DA MAN I FCUKIN WIN!!!!!!!!

I got Wonderful 101 as my free game in the mario kart 8 promotion. Damn this game is intense. At times immensely frustrating and challenging, but it packs all the fun and invention platinum games is known for

yeah it's a good list. I'm not on board with, "..hand-to-hand finishing moves. After significantly damaging an enemy, they’ll flash and highlight. By stepping close, the player is able to start a variety of combat moves that would be more at home in Mortal Kombat than most shooters..." Reminds me of that horrible mechanic in console games, although if they are already dead and you are just finding a creative way to drop then fine i guess. I'd probably rather just keep running to find something else to shoot though. Maybe, time will tell, when we can see what quakecon did in their closed session like some leaf out of comicon's book where fans get to see film previews. Gah, and the number of spoof vids online purporting to be what you want to see, i wouldn't bother with youtub until somewhere official releases something.
