Sheikah Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 For the vast majority of their 1st party games Nintendo probably use a series of drop down boxes to change the villain, serious threat to the planet or player, trivial powerup, annoying tacked on control method and (in the case of Zelda) gimmick transportation method. It's pure cookie cutter conserved, uninspired wheeze. They know it will make money, idiots will buy it. Endless first party game after first party game with the vast majority kept the same. Nintendo made some really great games but now they're just soulless basdtards churning out profitable garbage on their shitty, cheap consoles.
Daft Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 That post, was like, exactly...it was perfect. Couldn't have put it better myself.
ReZourceman Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 Yes, I haven't played Uncharted games, but my friend (who is a Sony player mostly) told me that those games are tubelike corridors, with very little exploration in it. Doesn't sound like something I would like for an action game. Arguably one of, if not the most moronic comments anyone has ever made in the history of the universe. You should murder them.
Sheikah Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 Even MORE utterly strange is that he said he really liked FFXIII! This is without doubt one of the most 'corridor' games in history, it was universally slated for this very reason. You spend a huge amount of the game walking down set paths with no veering off the course.
Sheikah Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 (edited) FFXIII: Press X to Win, is its full name. You know this will make you laugh. In Final Fantasy X-2 to get the good ending during the ending FMV you have to randomly, out of the blue press X and listen out for a whistle. Then press X something like 4 more times in order to WIN. If you don't press X you don't get the good ending. For Real. Press X to win indeed. Edited January 10, 2013 by Sheikah
Daft Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 That's absolutely wonderful. My God Square, SORT EEEET OUT.
Andyliini Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 Even MORE utterly strange is that he said he really liked FFXIII! I sweard I wouldn't comment anymore but this is an UTTER LIE! When in hell did I say that I "really liked FFXIII?" Never have I said that, and you just out of the blue accuse me of such a thing. It gave me the most play time, cause I whored out the achievement, but never did I say I "really liked it". Even I wouldn't have guessed you were this low. A direct question to you: Are you a Sony fan, who just felt offended by my statement, that my PS3 would be collecting dust if it wasn't for Blu-Ray movies? Cause thats how it really feels.

Sheikah Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 Oh, I'm sorry. You do research to find out the best games. Then instead of getting them, you go and buy ones you don't like such as FFXIII and plough countless hours into it. Ok. And where is the problem? None, if you like it. Someone suggested uncharted to him but he said he'd never play it due to it sounding like a 'corridors' game. But by his own confession he totally completed FFXIII.
Andyliini Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 And when did I say I didn't enjoy the game? That's the second lie now. And I have nothing good to say about liars. If I didn't enjoy it, I wouldn't have put 120 hours into it. This is going nowhere. If someone doesn't stop this, there will be nothing more than pointing fingers and throwing offends all around. Also, you ignored my question, so I take it as a yes. This is it, enough of this, like Dracula would say. No more of this stupid debate, that took a turn to lying.
Sheikah Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 The point is that you said you wouldn't like Uncharted as it sounded like it was a 'corridors' game. Now you are saying you DID enjoy FFXIII. Ergo you COULD enjoy Uncharted for it being 'corridors' as you loved a different game which was all 'corridors' (even though UC really isn't). Stop getting wound up about supposed 'lies', it is making you sound like a bit of a douche.

drahkon Posted January 11, 2013 Posted January 11, 2013 Off topic: Name of the movie (gif)? I've always wanted to watch it, but I just can't remember its name.

Ashley Posted January 11, 2013 Posted January 11, 2013 Want to get an external hard drive to make my PS3 more entertainment centric (as steaming over Wifi is temperamental). Should I take any factors into considering? Don't want to get one that ends up laggy or something.

Should I take any factors into considering? Don't want to get one that ends up laggy or something. I don't think you need to worry much to be honest. Just a decent branded one.... I've had a western digital I've for years now that wasn't the most expensive one they did but did the job.

Should I take any factors into considering? Don't want to get one that ends up laggy or something. I use a two year old 500GB USB 2.0 Samsung "S2 Portable", without external power supply. So anything you could buy in shops today should work. I use XviD4PSP 6.0 to convert mkv-files into mp4-files readable by the PS3. The program is fast, and I estimate only one of hundred mkv-files fails conversion.
Rowan Posted January 13, 2013 Posted January 13, 2013 Have you guys heard of The Wake Up Club coming to Vita? It's already out in Japan while USA are getting it next week for free. It's basically an alarm clock app but it's main USP is that you set your alarm, you then get paired up with 11 other people who too have their alarm set for the same time, but the game element is to see who wakes up the quickest. Then those who have woken up can either cheer on or make it more difficult for sleepers and snoozers to get up themselves. It's such a random idea but I think it sounds pretty cool:). http://blog.us.playstation.com/2013/01/10/start-your-morning-with-wake-up-club-for-ps-vita-next-week/
Daft Posted January 13, 2013 Posted January 13, 2013 That...actually...sounds...quite amusing and smart.
Deathjam Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 Regarding the external hard drive, doesn't it need to be formatted to a FAT32 file system to work with the ps3? In the past, this was the case, and the drawback of FAT32 vs NTFS is that an individual file can only have a maximum file size of 4GB on FAT32. On NTFS the limit goes beyond that, if there is a limit. If that's still the case, its good to know in advance as having data stored on an NTFS external that you want to use with the ps3 leads to annoying shifting of files and formatting.
are1981 Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 Regarding the external hard drive, doesn't it need to be formatted to a FAT32 file system to work with the ps3? Yes, sadly it has to be FAT32 formatted.
Rowan Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 What's the verdict on Vanquish, Binary Domain, and Syndicate? Thinking of getting 1 or 2 of them in the near future. I already have Vanquish in PS+ while the other 2 are around £10 each. Any of them worth playing?
Retro_Link Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 From what I know of them I'd say Vanquish would be the only one I'd say was probably worth playing, at least it's the only one I'd consider, it got some great reviews.
Magnus Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 I feel like I'd better recommend Binary Domain. It lacks the polish of AAA games, but makes up for it with charming characters and a surprisingly decent (if cheesy) story. The gunplay isn't as fast as in Vanquish but it's still satisfying, and the game has some great bosses. I'm also currently playing Vanquish and enjoying it. Never played Syndicate.
