Re: On Modern Gaming

I think I've seen enough of this place. The bullshit is rampant, I'm gone. To the people here that are actually decent, you have my kudos, you guys rock and made my stay here good.

Re: On Modern Gaming

Tell me it's just in my head and I'm making a spectacle of myself; I'll go silently, honest. this. you admit to not really spending much if any time playing games from this gen, make blanket and untrue statements about FPSs, multiplayer, leaderboards, etc., essentialize those who grew up playing ga...

Re: Need to be Brought up to Speed / Modern Gaming

I've been under a rock for the last ten years, mostly taking care of life. Why not browse the forum you are posting on, or perhaps look online somewhere else or even make a venture to a store that sells video games? Because like you, it's just easy to type up a reply and let everyone else to the wo...

Need to be Brought up to Speed / Modern Gaming

I've been under a rock for the last ten years, mostly taking care of life. This is what I'm current on: The last console I followed with any enthusiasm was the Dreamcast. While I did have a Cube, I played it casually only - Metroid Prime and the Twin Snakes were the only hyped games I knew of. I'm f...

On Modern Gaming

I'll break the ice by just saying, what the fuck is this bullshit? I've been behind the times a bit, by about 10 years. That can be a good or a bad thing, but it doesn't look like I'm missing out much. I'm just now beginning to enjoy modern 3D gaming, the likes of Metroid Prime and the Twin Snakes; ...

Re: Do detailed graphics help or hurt platformers?

Long story short, detailed graphics have NOTHING to do with hurting platformers. What hurts plaformers and has ALWAYS hurt platformers is when the background, foreground, HUD and even the sprites all share a common theme of consistency. It's actually very hard to pinpoint what is going on screen or ...

Re: DON'T GO TO E3 THIS YEAR!!!

With as crappy as the Internet is anymore, SOPA might be a good thing. I'm not saying I'm for it, but it would definitely help with the quality control. As far as EA is concerned, when they failed me in Need for Speed World, I did not get on the boycott bandwagon. Instead, I do the same thing I do f...

Re: Konami to "dissolve" Hudson Soft

Hudson, at least as far as retro gaming goes was always an indie developer of sorts. Konami was also good at releasing fantastic games (usually). If they're being absored like has been said and everything goes well, this is a good thing. But we won't really know until they release a new game in the ...
