Are there any good ones we can't see that you could post?
I just find it funny that there are all these people complaining about how bad whoever is playing the game sucks when it turns out that it's actually the game's developer in many cases.

I've had these features for a while thanks to custom builds, but it's great that it's going out to everybody.  Hopefully, Verizon won't delay this version for as long as they did with 2.1  http://techcrunch.com/2010/05/13/exclusive-google-to-add-tethering-wifi-hotspot-to-android-2-2-froyo/

Wario Land Shake It - $14.99

I saw it at a physical Gamestop over the weekend -- they had two copies.  One "new" copy, which wasn't new or even resealed, and the case was covered in stickers.  And one "used" copy that didn't have any case at all.  I am so sick of their ****.

I still had like 10 years of free subscription on EGM when it shut down.  Guess I'm not going to get those back.

When you say World of Goo demo, do you mean that tower-building thing?  If so, that's very unrepresentative of the actual game.  I didn't see what they demoed on the Wii.

Again, it depends what you mean.  Many of the print mags post their articles online, though not necessarily in magazine format.  Also, EGM is still available in print format.

Wow he gets around.
Has there been an online gaming magazine before?
Sure, but it depends what you mean by online gaming magazine.  If you mean something in non-HTML format, The Escapist used to be published as PDF.

One of the things I do every day for a laugh is read our Youtube comments (the listing you can't see that shows all comments for all videos).

ES OS is nothing more than an experiment -- they failed to even get Google Summer of Code support this year.  Concepts from it might be going into ChromeOS, but as of now, there's zero indication that Nintendo is involved anymore.

Aren't there a bunch of online services that can do it for you?  I know there were back in the 90s at least.

I've loved OoE's music since the first time I played it at a Media Summit, but I wish they used better instrument samples... or at least released an orchestrated soundtrack.  I'm afraid it probably hasn't gotten the exposure it deserves due to lack of sales.

« on: May 06, 2010, 12:59:22 PM »
To me, this game feels nothing like Star Fox.  In Star Fox, when something impacts your ship, you feel a physicality to it and there's an inertia to your vehicle.  In this game you can sprint around every which way and it's hard to tell when you're actually getting hit.

But they don't say who it is, and since it's a new character, nobody yet knows the actual significance of the picture... not quite the same as with Luigi.

Do you remember the feeling you had when you completed Star Road in Super Mario World and were sent back to the first stage only now all the Koopa shells had been replaced with Mario masks?  You're never going to experience a feeling like that ever again.
Funny you mention that.  It was pre-Internet Gamepro TV that actually showed me the existence of and how to get to Special World.

Getting there was the first thing I tried to do when I finally had a chance to play SMW (on my uncle's SNES).  I completed Special World and was then wondering whether he'd be upset that his game was effectively defaced.

Maybe, maybe not.  Nintendo reuses a lot of their tools across platforms, so it makes sense to keep the 3DS compatible with other Nintendo formats, and compression like this is probably even more useful on a portable than on a home console.

...Well they say a joke isn't funny if you have to explain it....

But I was inferring to my inability to count past 20 without my toes so how would I get to 1200, then I also referred to needing something like a pedometer when in fact that's what the pokewalker is....  :'( there goes my BET comedy special :'(

on the bright side that does mean that you're an awesome person MegaByte for even trying to H E L P O U T T H E S L O W L E A R N E R S L I K E M E :Q
I was going to say something about that, but decided against potentially insulting you.

Too bad I only have two hands and I wont be able to count my toes while I walk around..... Only if i had something to count my steps......
Do you have access to a smartphone or media player that can run apps?  There are free apps that can do this.

Aren't the voices already in English? They were in the first game.
No, but the English version is supposed to include both the original Japanese and English.

I was half-expecting Metroid to fall back to August/September. Delaying S&P2, when it's already so late after the Japanese release and has virtually no localization, makes less sense to me. Unless they've decided to actually advertise it and want the extra time to tell people that it exists...
Actually, S&P2 has a lot more localization than you'd think.  There are a lot of voiced cut-scenes.  But that should have been finished months ago.

They should have made it the Lakitu suit instead of the Cloud suit.
