General Gaming / RE: Overlord - Or "The closest MS can get to Pikmin without a lawsuit"

For the record, it doesn't look like Sacrifice was ever released in Japan, so I doubt Miyamoto ripped it off, though he could have, it's even more unlikely.

Nintendo Gaming / RE: FFCC: The Crystal Bearers

« on: June 30, 2007, 10:53:14 AM »

I played the entire game through playing with two players and thought the game was great, though repetitive, since we both used the mage characters.  If one of us had been something else, it would have worked a lot better, too.  I would have loved to play the game in the four player mode.
Of course, my favorite thing to do was to hold the bucket, then drop it and make a break to somewhere I thought there was a chest off screen.  It worked pretty well, if you ask me.  I know people didn't like the bucket, but it was definitely an interesting concept, IMO.

Remember that battery lives fade over time.  If your DS battery is weak, it means it's had a whole lot of use, as well as a good deal of time has passed.  That said, pretty much every PSP battery is about as strong as ever!

If it plays like Kingdom Hearts, and has party members like Kingdom Hearts, I hope the multiplayer lets friends control those characters.  Of course, I have no idea about how it plays.  I'm just saying I always wished other people could have controlled Donald, Goofy, and movie character X.

Crazy ramblings from a pretty new forum member?  Weird!

Anyways, I like the review, and agree with it.  I think the score is a little too low, but honestly, who cares, what it says is spot-on.

Which is why he's been getting the Seminoles crucified in about half of their games lately.

I jest, I jest.  Seriously, I'm decent friends with some Seminole fans and my favorite cousin will be at FSU in the Fall.  We do this kind of friendly rivalry stuff all the time.  This past year has been a bit lop-sided, though.  He even suggested that Bowden doesn't really coach or anything like that anymore, they just put him on the sideline and stick some Kenny Rodgers on repeat with his headphones, while the younger coaches try to run everything.

Fox news or not, the story actually happened.  This isn't anything political.  It's the story about a woman suing M&M/Mars, so why does the source matter?

Gainesville is the place to be.  Bobby Bowden needs to just call it quits, now, before he completely embarrasses the school.  I'm totally not kidding.  I can't wait to see how bad your school gets crushed this season.

Memory sticks really only get sales in Sony products.  Most things that use flash cards use SD cards or compact flash.  Sony won't let go of their formats, still.
Although, Lumines sales sales rising 5900% the day that exploit was found is proof that the homebrew community is a very powerful commodity that Sony continues to turn away.

I actually liked this commercial break, with the non-tendo.  Brufus, was it?

The solution to Manhunt 2's rating?  Take out all of the blood.  Leave absolutely everything else in there, and color the blood blue, green, make it sparks, do something that makes it not blood.  Everything stays in, but the blood isn't blood.  Then it becomes fantasy violence.  The things you kill technically don't have to be humans.  Someone said it on the podcast, make them robots, but something like that would really work.  But yes, I think Take2's games are placed on a pedestal and rated to prove a point to politicians.

I'll probably try some of the solo-Wiimote control scheme I suggested earlier in this thread a bit.  The controls will remind me of Kirby's Super Star.

I think most people see Gabe and Tycho like that.  They are just gamers.  When they realized that they had more power than the average gamer, what did they do?  They made a place for gamers to get together.  They made a charity to spread games to children who needed something to enjoy.  They game, they read about gaming, they talk about gaming.  It's what they are, which is why we all love them.

Robert Khoo is the one that really turned them from gamers into super-moguls, though, if what I've read is correct.

Yeah, alright, mine and TVman's comments finally showed up.  They just have a retarded moderator system.  One that could be censoring logic, or perhaps just bad posts.  Who knows?

Nope, I'm not buying it.  Even if what they say is true, then they are selecting what people read.  That means they might be hand-picking exactly which comments they want, choosing those that are pro-Sony, rather than those that contain negativity.  Essentially, this would almost be the same thing.

However, until someone else actually sees my comments on the site, I will believe that they posted that particular comment as part of a cover up.  Why would they randomly post one thing at 3:30 AM whatever time zone they are in, when there are at least two other comments out there waiting to be posted about that story? I still say something is fishier than SOny would like us to know, and I think they really are blocking almost all of the comments on the site, at least, if not only posting their own comments, including some false answers to create a false truth about the site.

Does my comment show up for anyone, now?  I don't see TVman's, still, and the homepage now says that there are eight comments, instead of nine, while before it said there were seven comments, instead of eight.
