Nintendo Gaming / Re: The House of the Dead: Overkill

Yeah I don't like the attitude of "here's your hardcore game", as if that's it. While they run away to other territories. "This should keep that annoying Wii userbase happy" is the vibe I get.

Nintendo fans and third parties can never get along.

Blame Squaresoft, or someone else.

Nintendo Gaming / Re: Tales of Heart getting Stateside release?

« on: July 30, 2008, 11:51:36 AM »

Scamco of America

I still laugh knowing that Tales Of Symphonia on the GC sold more then Tales Of The Aybss on the PS2.

Everyone knows that Team Symphonia is the only part of Tales Studio that doesn't suck.

Nintendo Gaming / Re: Theory about third party support

« on: July 30, 2008, 11:46:17 AM »

Oh good lord, the Capcom 5... never did I see so much back lash towards a third party compeny. While Capcom did somewhat screw us N-fans over, Capcom was basically getting screwed over with bad sales for games not on Nintendo systems.

On the subject of Capcom itself, and third parties in general, I'll go out on a limb and say to everyone that no third party, no matter the support, is completely bull-**** free. This also goes for Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft. There is always a dark story to tell, and this generation has seen alot of **** hitting the fan. Itagaki and Team Ninja splitting from Tecmo due to unpaid bonuses, American third parties banning game magazines from reviewing their games because of mediocure scores, and whatever insane news story these third parties can pull out of their asses.

Nintendo consoles and Third Parties, whether the support was solid or shitty, have never been best friends with each other, ever. Third parties bitch and complain that hardcore games don't sell on the Wii. The Big N's core audience bitch and whine that third parties don't support the Wii. Hell, it's been like this since the N64 days. We N fans can hardly forgive or forget.

I'm off to play hard mode on Sin & Punishment now.

You know what I've found most shocking is how good the voice acting is.  Yeah, I said it, the voice acting is actually good.

Yeah it is really quite good for the most part (there are a couple characters that are so-so but overall it is quality). Without spoiling anything I really loved what they did with the leviathan scene I remember that from the SNES game but this really was a well made scene.

FFIV was full of memorable scenes, but the Mist/Bomb Ring scene has got to be the most epic scene ever.

Rydia's scream at the end of that cutscene just sent chills down my spine. The voice acting is that good.

Furthermore, some adopt strategies of "portfolio diversification" where they squeeze out effortless games onto more popular platforms in order to simply fund the unsustainable HD games.

Y halo thr Ubisoft.

General Gaming / Re: Banjo-Kazooie heading to Xbox Live Arcade

« on: July 20, 2008, 11:11:51 AM »

I will give Rare the benifit of the doubt, Banjo-Kazooie was one of my favorite N64 games before Rare went right down the gutter hole. However, they've already proven that they only care about graphics and they whore out collect-a-thons to no end.

They could seriously whore this out in an upgrade to an N64 classic. Also, would X-Box gamers ever like an upgrade to a decade old N64 fan that originally was backed by Nintendo's core audience?

Silly Kairon, Nintendo fans are still bitter over how Nintendo was treated during the 64/GCN eras.

And Miyamoto is seriously the only part of Nintendo I still respect. That, and EAD Tokyo.

And Monolith. And NOA Treehouse.

We fans are such whiny bitches.

We bitch about VC releases.
We bitch about casual games.
We bitch about E3 2008.

People fail to see that Nintendo is making money, and they are not rushing games like they did back in the GCN era.

Yes, we are such whiny bitches.

General Gaming / Re: Banjo-Kazooie is back & now on XBox 360

« on: July 12, 2008, 08:56:18 PM »

I found that the back-tracking killed Banjo-Tooie. It's like that redid Donkey Kong 64 and just replaced the five main characters with a bear and bird.

I am also saddened that B-K 360 is not called Banjo-Threeie. Then again, maybe it shouldn't be.

A fandom is basically a league of fans that is created around a certain thing, and most of the time these said fans are the ones that create things in that hyper link in my first message.

« on: July 12, 2008, 07:31:40 PM »

Ah yes, fandoms. They can be created out of anything, and most of the time by a insane fangirl/fanboy on Deviantart/Fanfiction.net/(insert annoying fan festering place here). This thread is dedicated to mocking these fandoms with links, snarky comments and maybe a few holy water drops for eye cleaning here or there. I've seen a lot of these things, a lot, and some of them blows my mind away.

Maybe add wrist slitting to that list.

Here's my personal summery of all four MGS games stories:

MGS: Dramatic and made sense.
MGS2: Insane and somehow made some sense.
MGS3: Gave some insight to Big Boss but left me having more questions then answers. Also shows Konami having something against woman with The Boss. Seriously, and I thought MGS4 was bad.
MGS4: NANOMACHINES NANOMACHINES LIQUID NANOMACHINES NANOMACHINES PATROITS NANOMACHINES NANOMACHINES NANOMACHINES NANOMACHINES NANOMACHINES NANOMACHINES SOP NANOMACHINES NANOMACHINES ANOTHER HALF-HOUR CUTSCENE NANOMACHINES NANOMACHINES NANOMACHINES NANOMACHINES BIG BOSS.

The short before WALL-E has got to be the greatest thing I've ever seen. It reminded me of Tiny Toon Adventures violence, without the pop-culture references.

I love how this thread turned into posts about Sony/Microsoft ripping off Nintendo's ideas.

My favorite in the series is still MGS2, while it had cutscenes at least Kojima was forced to cut them down a bit.

Considering how insane the story got, I'm glad they forced him to do that.
