  1. Dyson was a great man. He single handedly commanded every single one of his slaves to build his new city. It took them little over 3 years to build it, and when it was finished, he decided to imprison them all and call them his townsfolk. He asked them all to come up with a name for the city, and everyone agreed on Penumbra - but Dyson overrode their decision and named it Dystopia. In that time, the population has rubber-banded quite a bit. People have come and gone, visitors have mysteriously disappeared, and strange buildings have started showing up. At this point, one man decided to step things up a little bit and take things in to his own hands. Taking his most prized .50 Cal Desert Eagle to the King's Chambers, the man hunted for Dyson. It was time to claim freedom and break the tyranny and oppression everyone had felt under the leader. As the man stalked through the shadows, Dyson was lying in bed, checking Facebook, and ensuring his virtual town of DysonVille was running well, as well as his real town. It was at this point that the man struck, shooting Dyson square in the forehead, causing blood and head-bits to cover the walls and short out his laptop. The man had managed not only to kill the leader of Dystopia with relative ease, but at the same time annihilate an entire virtual city, killing hundreds and thousands of innocent pixels. Dyson is Dead. He was Dyson. He ran the city. He was.. awesome. The townsfolk all heard the massive bang eminate from the palace. For such an impressive weapon, the owner was a bit dense to use such a loud gun. The news spread quickly that Dyson's head was in as many pieces as Tottenham's chances of picking up any silverware next season, or this analogy. Confused, intrigued and in some cases aroused, the townsfolk got together to decide what to do about it all. Day Phases end when majority is reached, or after 48 hours unless there is ongoing discussions. This is flexible - there will be no strict deadlines as in The Peeps' game. Night Phases will last a minimum of 24 hours to allow everyone to get their PM's in. If I receive all PM's before 24 hours have passed, the day will start early. PM's may continue to be sent until the night phase has ended. In other words, if you send your PM 30 hours after night begun and the next day hasn't started, you can still send your target in and have it count. As always, inactivity will be punished. There is to be no night talking or dead men talking that even remotely relates to the game. This is something I will not take lightly. Above all, have fun.

    From what I'm feeling, you don't have a cover story for your power heroic. I can't make up my mind whether or not ReZ is being controlled but I'd rather something was done today instead of leaving it until tomorrow, and I have this feeling you're not completely straight.

    Trust me, we're all going to be way too busy playing Super Mario 3DS/Mario Kart 3DS/Starfox 3DS at Christmas. The game were just incredible when I played them.
  9. good stuff thread.

    Me and London Girl seem to be really hitting it off as of late. And I think she might be opening up a little more. We've been a bit more couply recently and she seems more relaxed around me than she did.. which is great for someone with the issues she's had. I'm starting to think it could work after all. Also, going to a party in London with her tomorrow. We so excited.

    Oh right I saw that post but didn't realise it was heroic I'm not sure myself. Maybe the power takes effect on someone depending on if they're good or evil?
  11. Halo Anniversary

    That graphics switch is amazing. I'm quite excited.
  12. DIY Video Game Mafia

    I think ReZ is being controlled. Vote: No Lynch for now. Though I'm not keen on the fact that he was targetted only by heroic and we haven't really been able to decipher what it is that he does. Heroic, what is your character/role?
  13. 3DS Console Discussion

    It was genuinely quite unplayable, I had to put it down before it begun to annoy me. I was surprised they were showing it in that state. The lack of direction was frustrating too, but then again that type of game isn't really suited to a demo environment.
  14. Xbox 360 Console Discussion

    No chance. Gears of War 3 console for me. Plus I've never seen Star Wars so meh. HOWEVER, I have been playing Child of Eden. I'm blown away. Feels like my Kinect purchase has been justified. Between that, Kinect Sports and Dance Central it's a great piece of kit. Looking forward to some neat Kinect experiences down the line.

  19. 3DS Console Discussion

    Framerate issues were obvious on Luigi's Mansion to an incredible degree - I asked the attendant if there was something wrong with my unit. Metal Gear Solid had it during cutscenes too. Aside from that the rest were as smooth as 4 ply toilet paper, including Resident Evil which realy impressed me given the graphical detail in the game. The Kid Icarus build had 3 levels to choose from (with their own difficulty levels of Easy, Medium or Hard) and about 6 weapons to choose from. Allegedly it was a time attack mode in which you could increase your play time by defeating more enemies but I didn't actually see this time limit. I probably missed it Multiplayer wasn't on show on any of the 3DS games. Sonic Generations - the modern level kept a good sense of speed going throughout whereas the classic level had it, but to a lesser degree. It felt like it took a little longer to get speed up than the old sonic games. It's odd, it felt a bit off in comparison to how it felt on the 360 but I couldn't place my finger on what it was. It was a good experience, though.
  20. Pokémafia X : The Tournament of Champions

    Yeah, had a feeling that might be it. Didn't want to speak too much due to my role and I didn't really have much to add. However I feel that having 6 mafia players and a killer for every night is just a little overkill and incredibly hard for the town. Especially when the serial killer knocks out exclusively town members I think this was probably my least favourite Pokemafia so far, but I'm sure the next will be fuckin' sweeeeet.
  21. good stuff thread.

    This was pretty much the only game I didn't play. And Days of Ruin I think it was? I saw it there but it was quite busy with only 1 demo stand so I played a Japanese demo of Kirby's Mass Attack which was opposite it and proceeded to get my mind blown I've got a writeup of the 3DS stuff in the 3DS thread here and will write about Zelda and Kirby and the other bits and bobs elsewhere later on. Basically, it was a GLORIOUS day. HERE B PIX. Outside! Theming!

  22. 3DS Console Discussion

    So I just got back from playing pretty much all of the biggest Nintendo games to come out this year. Ok, wow. You guys will all be buying Super Mario 3DS when it comes out. The game is incredible. It controls like Mario 64, but feels like a cocktail of New Super Mario Bros and Mario 64 in terms of linearity and level design. I was really impressed by the subtle 3D on the game, too, making it a lot easier to judge distance. One problem I had was Mario feeling a bit slippery at times, and grabbing the flagpole was a particularly tricky feat, but I got there in the end. Loved it. Much unlike Luigi's Mansion 2 which was absolute garbage and seemed to run at 15 frames per second, with clunky controls to boot. Total disappointment. Mario Kart 3DS was brilliant, the flying sections allow for some really cool shortcuts that potentially turn in to pitfalls if you mess them up, and the customization looks to shake up the way Mario Kart is played. It felt more like Diddy Kong Racing, which for me is a great thing. I also didn't see any blue shells, so either I got very lucky and didn't get any sent my way or my prayers have been answered Kid Icarus looks to be a great game. The controls are interesting, but have one major major problem that makes the whole thing fall flat: it's not suitable for left handers like myself. You use the circle pad and the stylus at the same time meaning you're forced to use the stylus with the right hand, or use your thumb.. but when you're trying to aim with precision this becomes very difficult. I asked the attendant and he said that there wasn't currently a left handed mode implemented, and unless they consider it, it's just going to be a completely awkward and not fun experience for us lefties. Which is a shame because the parts I did struggle through were brilliant, the on-rails flying sequences felt like Starfox and felt a lot more solid than the on foot sections, which were still fun despite grappling with frustrating rightie only controls. Resident Evil: Revelations was extremely impressive, providing probably the best visuals I've seen on the 3DS so far. The controls felt great and the atmosphere was well built. This looks like it'll be a success and something to look forward to for any Resident Evil fans. I wish I'd spent a bit more time with this game but it was the first one I got to and my mind was telling me to hurry it up so as not to miss out on Skyward Sword and Super Mario Starfox 64 3D was just brilliant. I really enjoyed it, it's been my most anticipated game on the 3DS since I heard of its unveiling and it did not disappoint. The circle pad and the gyro sensors work in unison to bring fantastic precise shooting which builds tenfold on the old analogue stick from the Nintendo 64. There were 3 levels to choose from on the demo but I only did Corneria to avoid spoiling the experience for the actual game, and because it's the most iconic of all of the levels. The 3D was most excellent. Can't wait for this to come out. Plus the demo units were in a shuttle interior with lasers flying everywhere so I felt seriously cool Probably the most surprising game appearance at the event was that of Sonic Generations 3DS, which featured Classic Sonic gameplay, Modern Sonic gameplay and a boss fight which I didn't do. To my surprise I actually preferred the Modern Sonic level to that of the Classic Sonic. Modern Sonic felt a lot like Sonic Rush gameplay, with a building boost bar and homing attacks and the sense of speed was great, but for some reason Classic Sonic felt, again, a little bit slippery. I'm starting to think I don't get on with the Circle Pad on the 3DS. The 3D wasn't as effective as it could have been, but the gameplay and level design felt solid and will be a great platformer for 3DS owners. I also managed to get Modern Sonic completely glitched and fall through the level at one point, causing flashes of green to go whizzing past me as I fell at 2000 MPH, which was fun And then there was Metal Gear Solid 3D, which suffered from a few frame rate issues and a case of far too many loading screens, but the gameplay felt identical to that in the PS2 version, albeit with slightly fiddlier controls. I'm not sure I'll be picking this up now, especially since they're re-releasing MGS2, 3 and Peace Walker on the 360 anyway. In conclusion, the event was really good fun and a great experience. If anyone has any questions about the games or the event or anything else let me know I did take some pictures (we were allowed to take photos, as long as it wasn't of the 3D screens) but I haven't checked out their quality yet. I'll post them a bit later.

    But if the day is over why not let ReZ have the glory?
