TalkBack / RE:Madden 06 is a Hot Seller
« on: August 19, 2005, 08:11:08 AM »
Man how can anyone fall for that? Of course it's the best selling ever, no one is able to hold off to wait for a different NFL game because there won't be one. What a crock!! I doubt selling 100K more than last year covers the extreme price they had to pay for the license (or for how many people they pi55ed off by sinking every other developers NFL game).

*Waiting for a roster update for ESPN 2K5.*

TalkBack / RE:Washington Post Says GameCube is
« on: December 04, 2004, 10:03:37 AM »
THX for the email addy rocc94.
I emailed the guy asking if he even plays games since it didn't really seem like it to me. Or maybe it was just the negative perception that the gaming press has gave the CUBE since uh, always that scared him away from playing one.  All he felt necessary to tell me was that

"To answer your question, unless you *don't* think online gaming is relevant, I would say that the GameCube is looking pretty far behind the times. "

To which I wondered how he thought that made it "obsolete". So I replied again with the following:

"If I want to play online I always have my PC and Xbox. I'm one of the billion people who play Halo 2 online everyday. Game Boy Advance isn't online, does that make it obsolete? Hasn't it been the #1 selling console all year? Have you tried Donkey Konga or seen the new Mario Party? Online is fun sure but you still can't beat having everyone you play in one room together. I play games to have fun and most of the games I play aren't online and yet they remain fun. I won't defend Nintendo's reluctance to go online. It agree that it is a major reason why they seem to be slipping in the console race but in no sense of the word do I consider the Gamecube "obsolete". I also believe one of the major reasons Gamecube isn't doing well is because of people who write articles like you did. The gaming press has seemed to want Gamecube to fail since day 1. I don't know why that is and it bugs me. No one seems to write articles about what the PS2 or Xbox lack only what's good about them yet it's the exact opposite way with the Gamecube. I guess people think it's cool to bash Nintendo now. Whatever."

TalkBack / RE: Independent and Objective Ratings System Initiated
« on: December 01, 2004, 06:40:29 AM »
Lots of stupid parents can't even figure out the current rating system. I can't wait to see how they react if this thing goes through.  It is just going to confuse people more.

I've seen groups of them in some of the videos I d/l-ed and I was waiting to hear what was going on with that. THX for at least acknowledging this. I wondered why no one mentioned it before.

I don't know what to think. I liked having the only 24 hour a day totally dedicated to vg channel. I can see it had major problems though. Maybe this will fix em. ?

TalkBack / RE:Sega Toying with DS Development Hardware
« on: February 10, 2004, 08:30:08 AM »
It seems Sega and Capcom will make games for any system no matter how goofy (No opinion satated here). I expect they will develop at least a few DS games.

Hmm I don't know if that is going to make it good enough for me to buy. Sure I love Metroid but N is just whorin' out remakes like crazy now a days. Aw I'll probably get it eventually anyway (for the collection).

It could be awesome if they pull it off right. That is if they are capable of pulling it off right. I have no doubt there is some goodness in it.

TalkBack / The Cinematic Mario Brothers Go Digital
« on: May 26, 2003, 08:41:31 AM »
I actually lost my first job due to this movie. I called off to go see it, I was so excited but someone saw me somewhere and told my boss that I really wasn't sick. What a payback! Hey for $10 it's worth adding to the collection I guess.

TalkBack / AIAS Winners from D.I.C.E.!
« on: February 28, 2003, 08:52:30 AM »
I'm just confused it won over MP. I mean I have them both and they are both great games and all but SC was nothing compared to MP. How many tactical stealth games are there? Okay now how many games like MP? Hmm-mm

TalkBack / Dave Mirra sues Acclaim over BMX XXX
« on: February 14, 2003, 08:48:13 AM »
They did take his name and everything away, what's his problem? So the game isn't that great, doesn't mean everyone has to keep bashing it into the ground over and over. I bought it, hated the controls and don't play it too much anymore. I can think of many other games that deserve to bashed more than this one. Do you never want to see titties in vgs again? LAY OFF!!!

Nintendo Gaming / Zelda game after windwaker
« on: February 09, 2003, 08:56:15 AM »
I had a really sweet idea awhile back. The next Zelda should be like so...

New Link, last in the series. Ganon is still dead from AoL. Link manipulates time again. Gets to go back to certain scenes from all the current Zeldas and help old Links out. There are various science fiction shows that have done this (e . Star Trek). All the old games are redone in brillant beautiful 3D.
For example say you warp back to a temple, you hear a beast bellowing. You go thru the temple and see past Link slaying Aquamentus from Loz Dungeon #1. As he goes to the next room and picks up the Triforce, he disappears and warps out. You, however, are still there and notice that as he touched the Triforce another cavern opened behind the pedastal. A whole new dungeon is down there that you never knew about. !!! Save past Links from dangers they never knew about. At the end it turns out to be another one of Ganon's crony wizards (not Agnahim) trying to revive him or whatever. His fortress, in the present, is the final level.

There are limitless possibilities to  use for this. I think it would be insanely awesome. Comments?

Yours looks pretty close, theaveng. The only thing I'd tell you to change is that LA happens halfway thru AoL.

General Gaming / Anyone else disappointed in their Xbox?
« on: February 09, 2003, 08:42:35 AM »
No troubles with the xbox, it's the damn PS2 that doesn't work worth a damn. I'll get real upset if I go into it but let's just say I'm not happy with Sony.

Nintendo Gaming / More Capcom rumors
« on: February 09, 2003, 08:40:07 AM »
I take that news with a grain of salt. Although you can't rule anything out these days I'd still like to hear it from them officially rather than by someone I don't know on a message board.
