Yesyesyesyesyes it's a proper sequel, not a spin-off. Which is good, because the original is still one of the best games of this gen. Sooooo excited for this and Banjo.

God I want to buy this so bad. I thought I could hold out, I thought I'd teach EA a lesson, I never thought I'd consider paying £180 for a video game. But dammit, that's exactly what I want to do.

Every review and preview I've read says that the camera is shite. It's a damn shame too, as the camera is as important as the controls in games like this. I'll hopefully enjoy it all the same. Edit - Fuck, mid combat loading? That's terrible. Team Ninja's games are usually technically outstanding, what happened here? I might wait for the inevitable PS3 port six months down the line with all the problems fixed.

You won't be dissapointed by Paprika, it's one hell of an experience. Lost in Translation is excellent too. Amazing movie.

Hang on: Wii is owning all, where are the games?
Mr. Bananagrabber replied to ultrajamie's topic in Nintendo Gaming
That paragraph, it's beautiful. ;_; You're totally right. I have to admit I go there every now and then for news purposes, but everyone there seems to be twelve years old and painfully arrogant. And God, the annoying repetetive gif avatars... -
I'm so anxious, which really isn't like me at all. Starting a new job tomorrow, which I've no doubt will be awful but I need the money before I go back to College.

Hang on: Wii is owning all, where are the games?
Mr. Bananagrabber replied to ultrajamie's topic in Nintendo Gaming
My bad, seems you're right. In that case, I really have no idea why all the games are heading to the other two. I mean, I can understand some developers having problems with Nintendo in the past, but you'd think with the lead they have coupled with the software sales it'd be water under the bridge. I doubt it's money hats either, why would a company pay to have stuff like 50 Cent or Jericho on their systems? Someone else on the net who hates NeoGAF? Marry me. -

I'm having difficuly a source on that mate. According to Wikipedia (not the most trustworthy site, I know), 148.44 million Wii games have been sold as of March. Almost looks like you've pulled numbers out of thin air. Hmm. I can't find a number for the amount of 360 games sold anywhere. I remember hearing that the 360 attach rate was something like four times higher than the Wii's though, which would mean it's sold more. If you're right though, then I have no idea why publishers are heading to the PS360 instead. Maybe it's because it's easy to develop a game for the PS3 and 360 simulatneously then spend time downgrading it for the Wii. Just a guess. -

Because more games are sold on the 360 and even the PS3. And game sales are what matter to publishers and developers I guess. -

It wasn't a perfectly acceptable film by any standard. :p

He didn't say it was unconvincing, he said it was lame. Which it was.

Spent a fuckton of money over the weekend.

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull Up there with Mario Sunshine and The Phantom Menace on my list of soul-crushingly disappointing turds. Full of cliches, plot holes, poor acting (although Ford is good), a pants-on-head retarded story, an over-reliance on special effects (especially at the end), lame humour and action scenes that mostly fall flat. All in all, a fantastic four (out of a possible ten).

No, games that have less than 65% on Metacritic and less than 6% of people who try a demo actually buy it, will be deleted within three weeks. Two Arcade games I love, Mr. Driller and Triggerheart have less than 65%, if something were to happen to my HDD, and they were deleted, I wouldn't be able to re-download two games that I've payed my hard earned money for. The point of digital distribution is that you can get any game you want, when you want. The problems of shelf space are a thing of the past, why on Earth would Microsoft want to delete games that are doing no harm just sitting there? Basing this on Metacritic is bullshit too. One man's trash is another man's treasure. I don't want to be limited as to what I can play by what some asshole critic thinks of the game. Terrible move Microsoft.

2 and a half stars was a little generous. It's a pretty bad movie, not only compared to other Indy movies but compared to most action and adventure films. Not even half as good as Temple of Doom, which was easily the worst of the series up until now. A lot of wtf moments, but not in a good way. More like, 'wtf? Why am I watching this?' I'm so dissapointed. Still, Lego Indy should be good.
-
Cool. I thought Guitar Hero III was shit but the customization stuff has me interested. lol @ describing Linkin Park as one of the greatest classic and modern rock bands of all-time. Edit- That has to be one of the shittiest trailers I've ever seen.
-
Happens to us all eventually. Hope you're one of the people whio gets it back in a week, and not a fucking month. Going to Glasgow tomorrow to visit a friend. Should be good.

If there's one thing Bioshock doesn't need, it's a multiplayer. Especially not a co-op mode, that'd be missing the point of the game entirely. It'll be worth buying for the four people in the world who own a PS3 but not a PC or a 360. Absolutely excellent game.

Why gaming was better in the 90's
Mr. Bananagrabber replied to tapedeck's topic in General Gaming Discussion
Yeah, that's probably true. Ten years from now I'll more than likely be complaining that games are no longer as good as the classic era of stuff like Half Life 2 and Ico. I love plenty of games from the 90's don't get me wrong. There are hundreds of games from that decade that I love to pieces. From late NES to early Dreamcast. Actually, I never really thought about it like that before. The 90's covered everything from 8 bit to 128 bit. -

Mr. Bananagrabber replied to tapedeck's topic in General Gaming Discussion
...Yes? What difference does that make? If you're trying to imply that I'm too young to have experienced 90's games, you're wrong. I've been playing since I was 4 and I've played pretty much every game that's considered great from every single decade. There were excellent games in the 90s, but people seem to forget it was full of shit as well. Just like nowadays. -
Penny Arcade Adventures: On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness, Episode One
Mr. Bananagrabber replied to Haver's topic in Other Consoles
Finished it. Absolutely cannot wait for Episode 2 now. There's a cool little preview for it at the end. My only major complaint is that you can't go back to any area you want after finishing it, so you can't get all the parts and whatnot after completeing it. -

Mr. Bananagrabber replied to tapedeck's topic in General Gaming Discussion
Garbage. Gaming is better now than it ever has been and it'll probably continue to get better and better. Almost all of my top ten games are from the last eight years. Number 5 is ridiculous. He's honestly trying to pass of the fact that there were less excellent games back then as a plus point. What the fuck?
