Do you guys really care what Spike TV says, when most of the committee is filled with celebrities that don't know what "gg" means?

Nintendo Gaming / Aggressive Inline, worth $5?
« on: November 17, 2005, 05:40:14 PM »
Yeah, $5 doesn't hurt, but I quit THPS at 3. I'm sick of doing different tricks only because they are different and serve no other purpose. Tricks are tricks in real life because they are SO HARD TO DO. You don't have a feeling of accomplishment when doing tricks in these sorts of games.
It's only $5 and has some high scores, but if it's just another THPS, I think I'll pass and not waste my money.

Having the rarest experiences ever:
Playing 4 player Crystal Chronicles, showed me what cooperative games SHOULD be like. Having your partners as clones of yourself and having you fight on the same side is NOT cooperation, it's just an addition. Relying on your friends to cover your weakness as well as doing your role IS cooperation. This is truly an unforgettable experience.
Playing 4 player Pac-man Vs. showed how games don't need uber graphics, extreme complexity or high productions in order to be fun. When it comes down to it, the gameplay is what stands the test of time. Using only a joystick, the game is easy to learn, yet requires teamwork to play. This is yet another unique experience I treasure.
As for Zelda 4 swords, unfortunately, my friends were jackoffs and kept throwing me into bottomless pits. It could have been a great game too... =(
Overall, I really enjoyed connectivity. The people that whine that it's lame, do so because they are too cheap to get 4 used GBAs which only cost $20 around now. It's not fair for someone to comment negatively about something when they NEVER EXPERIENCED it before. It's like saying the 360 sucks just by looking at it. Apple products are ridiculously priced, yet nobody complains about their quality. An irony? Perhaps.

Bleh, I think you are overexaggerating the foot missions just a bit. RS3 is still the better game because it has so much more content. You get the full RS2 in 2 player form, you get vs. modes and you have a branching storyline. The foot missions provide much needed variety than the usual, aim, press fire, repeat you usually do.
I'm really loving some of the underrated games on the cube like PSO3, FF:CC and Second Sight. These quality titles are unfortunately often dismissed by the blind masses.
I really love the controller as well. When I look at the N64 ones, they feel "cheap".

Well then, by your definition, Zelda games would also be repetitive...
Move, explore, open door, solve puzzle, use weapons to kill bad guys, get keys, open doors, beat boss.
It's not the sequence, it's what lies within...
The thing about the Zelda games is that EACH PUZZLE IS DIFFERENT. You don't do the same puzzles repeatedly, which leaves a "new" feeling, everytime you encounter the next puzzle.
In RE4, you might encounter some guys with helments or shields, but they are generally handled in the same manner. I'd rather have 8 dungeons full of unique puzzles than 5 chapters of repetitive shooting.
Puzzle games aren't repetitive, since no two will ever be the same. Action games however are. This is a fact.
My opinion however, is that I do not like repetitive games.
You do play games, but what you play is what deems it repetitive or not.

Nani?
How the heck is RE4 repetitive? The only time I found this to be a problem is, naturally, when I unlocked the Chicago Typewriter and played through the game. I would go as far as to say RE4 was the best game I played this year, but it's, sadly, second to Advance Wars DS IMO.

Hi, I'm new, but HOWABOUT we talk ONTOPIC...
From what I've seen or read, STW is just another mindless, repetitive hack and slash, similar to RE4, X-men Legends, or Baldur's Gate.
These action games I hate.
