And it still baffles me to this day why they dropped the two Mega Man games and gave a big middle finger to their most iconic creation. If "there aren't enough fans" to sell a Mega Man game, there probably isn't enough to make an HD remake of this.

Square already gave you your HD remake. It's called FFXIII. Look at the characters. They're literally all the same. The only thing that changed was that Square went way overboard with the Japanese fashion. The plot really isn't that different if you use your imagination. Also, I'm thinking about getting more into WRPGs. I was thinking about Dragon's Dogma as I'm hearing great things, but you guys seem to be giving a lot of credit Dark/Demon's Souls? Which one's more satisfying? e; My friend even said DD is like Kingdom Hearts meets Skyrim? What? teen phone cutie fucked around with this message at 02:29 on Jun 27, 2012 |

I said come in! posted:Hey, how big of a success was the Multiplayer only version of Killzone 3? I've been waiting for Sony to offer more games like this. Guerrilla is the only company I've seen that really tries to get their DLC out before their games lose popularity. Both Killzone 2 and 3 had a few months of success and a good number of map packs for their 15 minutes. Sony promoted the poo poo out of KZ3, but in the end, the game loses half its community within the first 3-4 months. I'm sure you can still find plenty of games, though.

Speaking of demos, I downloaded a few today, including a game called Warp. I'd recommend it. It's a cute little puzzle game about an alien test subject that has to escape whilst warping through walls and into people, making them burst from the inside. There's tons of neat obstacles to outsmart, and it doesn't hold your hand with constant pop-up objectives/reminders. It gives you the basics, and you're off, which is what more video games need. It's nothing like Portal, so don't assume that. I think you can get more powers but, like I said, I only played the demo. Although if you're a puzzle game fan, you should DL the demo. I also DL'ed Dragon's Dogma, Arkham City, and a Closure, an indie game where you manipulate light to make it to the respective door in each level. It's not original - I know. e; Batman is a button masher...I expected better. teen phone cutie fucked around with this message at 03:07 on Jul 9, 2012 |

Why does this game suck I played LBP2 about 5 times, and I couldn't bring myself to put it in my PS3 again. Did they fix the laggy, lovely connections?

On another note, I just found out how many N64, NES, and SNES games Nintendo has been putting on their store when I hooked my Wii up for the first time in months. Why are the PS Classics so lacking still? Where's the Mega Man X series? Where's Gran Turismo 1? Where's all the other games I used to play on my PSX?

I'm upset that UFG didn't incorporate the same avatar creation that Modnation had. A game that has the LittleBigPlanet and Modnation developers should have made for something that had the best of both worlds. I was looking forward to re-creating my mods, and racing with them in another game. Making mods was the only thing I was good at in that game, and it was half the fun:    I want to have my cake and eat it too, dammit.  e; Is anyone still playing Modnation?

Code Jockey posted:Overall I'd say Portal 2 has some WAY harder puzzles than Portal 1; but trust me, the feeling of finally getting it and beating the level in question is like pure digital heroin. More than once I literally ended up yelling out gently caress YES WOOOOOOO. Thankfully I was home alone when I marathonned Portal 2. Portal 2 didn't give me that feeling because of the stupid rooms where you would just have to find the one, hidden slab of white, which was nowhere to be found. If Portal 2 has one major flaw, it's that. Also, eightysixed, know that Portal 2 plays a bit differently. It's a longer game solely because the story keeps getting in the way of the puzzles. I love seeing Wheatley, but he tends to suck you out of the puzzle part of the game and make you run down corridors looking for the next puzzle too much.

I found the Jak and Daxter for $10 from Gamestop as an online-only offer. It was one a the few times I've purchased a game from Gamestop, and I assume someone else would want the deal: http://www.gamestop.com/ps3/games/jak-and-daxter-collection/98639 Also, I'm getting rid of a few of my shooters (and a platformer). Do any of you guys want them? I posted in the game trading thread, but I figure some of you might want them, since most of PS3 exclusives. Rather than selling them, I'm looking to trade them for other games. I don't know what a 1:1 deal would be, but if you think it's fair, then let me know. I'm into all kinds of games.

I've owned a PS3 since the beginning of 2009 and still haven't played an Uncharted game, and I'm thinking of picking one up, but I'm kind of skeptical about doing so. I was just wondering if you guys could answer a few questions for me, namely is this game something that is actually intuitive and fun or is it filled with tutorials and on-screen objectives and QTEs? Is this another typical NaughtyDog game that has a huge emphasis on collecting things, or can I get by just playing the game normally? Does this series focus more on the story or gameplay (I didn't buy The Last of Us because the gameplay looked super boring, yet the story is apparently great)? I' basically looking for a fun game to get immersed in without the game telling me where to go and when to push a button all the time. Does the game have good game feel and does it feel satisfying to play?

I think Killzone is an awesome series, not considering multiplayer. Sure it's linear and puts you on rails, but you get to shoot all kinds of different weapons at bad guys and just feels very chaotic at all times, which is what a FPS should be. I think it's one of the few AAA shooters that has good game feel, as well. That game would be amazing if they let you fly vehicles and put more than one stealth mission in there. It is brown, though, and that's unforgiving.

Part of me says "Who cares? The ps4 is around the corner." But I have a shitload of games on this thing. I'll have to replace it. I haven't even had it a year. Anyone else getting lots of freezes for this game? Another annoying thing. There are apparently no mid level saves if you quit the game or it freezes because I was almost to the end of what I assume is the first level and it froze. I start it back up and I'm at the god drat start. Check out the Battlfield 3 Console thread. All they're doing in that thread is complaining about BF4 freezing.

I just went back to LittleBigPlanet 2 again after putting it down early into the game before. The reasons I didn't like it was because the whole game revolved around collecting things, the overwhelming tutorial sequences, and the overall floatiness of the game. This time I'm actually enjoying it. I'm not paying attention to any of the collectibles and just running through the levels and skipping all the text, as if it were an intuitive platformer, and it really is fun and flows well when you quit worrying about points and flair, as there is no incentive to getting any of that. The only thing I do hate is that there is no punishment for death. Dying usually puts you back inches and you have infinite chances. I guess I'm enjoying LBP as a good game to mellow out to. It's really relaxing. I know this game is old, but I was super critical of this game, and never understood why people liked it so much. Now I realize I was playing it wrong.

It's infuriating at parts and I had serious issues with conveyance during the entire game, the biggest part being the final boss not telegraphing his attacks. This game is great as a creation tool, but a sub-par platformer, in my opinion.

The jumping was very floaty and a big issue, I think, because there were times when you had to wait for Sackboy to land fully before you could jump again at full height. It really ruins the flow of the game, and in a game like this, where levels are designed for you to blow right through them, that gets annoying.

I got Ni No Kuni for Christmas and I'm loving it aside from the handholding. The color palette and cel-shading looks really great, and the music is amazing. I just wish they would stop telling me how to beat every challenge before I can try to figure it out for myself. Also got Shadow of the Collussus/Ico Collection. I've never actually played Ico before. I'm looking forward to that. And Kingdom Hearts 1.5. The nostalgia is the only thing that's carrying me through, really. It's not really a great game from a modern perspective.

I got it for Christmas, and I'm pretty far into it at this point. It's really kept me hooked because I love the cel-shading and the music never gets old, this especially. A couple tips I would keep in mind: - Always pay attention to Drippy when he tells you to be careful or "are you sure you really want to do that" because it usually means a boss fight is coming and it's impossible to win a big fight when your party has no MP. - Experiment with different familiars because you want to, not because you need to grind. The only part I've found where you absolutely need to grind for the sake of grinding is after the 3rd town because the game takes a huge ramp in difficulty. - Indulge in the game. Appreciate the music and art, because you'll hate it if you don't. It's a JRPG with a sub-par combat system and a lot of reading, so it's easy to get annoyed. Overall, it's not too hard of a game. The only things that feel like a chore is the errands because they're repetitive, bland, and stupid easy. Experimenting with different pets is fun, if you don't take it too seriously (those things gain levels quick, so it's not a big hassle to train). The game holds your hand WAY too much, but peddle through it. Most of the hand-holding ends at the 3rd town, and most of the hand-holding after that can be avoided by mashing the X button through all the text.

Syrinxx posted:The story is wonderful but I think it's bad in the gameplay department. Just dumb and bad. There are a whopping 3 types of zombie enemies and a couple humans; hope you enjoy fighting them for 15 hours. The encounters are nothing more than learning pathing and retrying a million times when you fail which you will because who knows why that clicker will hear you killing someone 9 feet away but not 11 feet away. Also if you kill a dude with an assault rifle and a flashlight and ammunition you won't be able to pick any of it up which is basically the stupidest loving thing ever. That's another thing I've noticed is there is pretty much no incentive for staying alive. Considering it's a survival-horror, you'd think there would be some reward for not dying. And I can admit that I understand why people enjoy this game, but it genuinely suprises me that I know people who bought a PS3 just for this game alone. It's not really breaking any new ground and I just feel that the gameplay is so uninspired. I actually just finished Arkham Asylum and Dishonored has been on my wishlist for a while.

Crossposting from the Ni No Kuni thread. Just wanted to share my final thoughts. I like the game and all but: I'm at the final boss and I've about had it with the battle system. I'm so tired of moves getting cancelled, healing not happening quickly enough, getting stuck waiting for my spell to finish so I can scroll to "defend" in time, AI wasting MP on healing 50 HP and not using magic against bosses, wasting items on teammates who die before the effect kicks in, Mr. Drippy interrupting my spells with his text and healing spell, etc. I know most of that poo poo is how most JRPGs work, but it's loving annoying, and during the fight, I got so tired of micromanaging I eventually gave up and ended up dying. This game is loving exhausting, and should have been way shorter, as well. It really wastes your time way too much. There's too much running around for the sake of running around (i.e. when the rat steals the magic log).

I was actually thinking about picking that collection up. Is the MGS series known for being really good, or is it just really iconic? Do the older games hold up well? I know I have a few other HD remakes of games that I remembered being decent, but actually didn't age well (namely Kingdom Hearts and Jak 1).

G-Whizard posted:As apposed to what? JRPG's? That have massive amounts of dialogue and tutorials that never end? Games like Persona and Final Fantasy are so slow paced whereas games like Mass Effect are pretty well paced in my opinion. Yes, sometimes there is dialogue I don't care about but it's usually because I want to see all the dialogue trees and I end up selecting every tiny option and turn what should have been a quick conversation into Commander Shepherd asks 20 questions. My point was in games like Mass Effect, something huge happens, like the Reapers invading the gently caress out of Earth then nothing happens for the longest time until finally you get something big at the end. Most visits to other planets in Mass Effect made me feel like we didn't need to be there, and I never really felt satisfied when I completed missions. Yes. JRPGs waste your time and are there's a lot of running around for no reason, right. They're slow paced, but they are consistent at least. Final Fantasy at least gives you cool bosses to look forward to at the end of most dungeons.

Also, I wanted to say that my #1 game on the PS3 was Modnation Racers. Obviously a Mario Kart clone, but it was infinitely better than any Mario Kart game to date. It's the only game I've played that I think is perfect in every way. It was such a creative game, and people made amazing maps/karts/mods. Definitely didn't get enough publicity. I don't know how the portable versions play, but I think they got more attention. One of the best games I've played in my entire life. And gently caress yourself if you think I'm wrong. teen phone cutie fucked around with this message at 05:35 on Feb 1, 2014 |
