Strange Quark posted:Seriously, the cutscenes in Rising were explicitly made to be shorter than the ones in the MGS games. And yet they are way more annoying. Maybe it's because Snake doesn't multitask during codecs by walking slowly down a grey corridor nakedly covering loads in between each and every other grey corridor. Also the fact that cutscenes in other Metal Gear Solids are usually there to introduce a new mechanic or illustrate a weird gimmick in the next room or to build the characters in some way. In Rising it's Russian guy or German guy saying the same poo poo they said the previous cutscene again and again.

People on the Internet's obsession with seeing that other people play dark souls is pretty much like the evil cult disc and hoop game from that one episode of star trek. Both in their uniform creepy insistence and in the incomprehensible love for what looks like a bad game from a hundred years ago. I'm rooting for Jeff Gerstmann to never get caught and to keep on crawling through those Jeffries tubes. Big Jeffries tubes.

I'm going to blow this entire threads mind but there is actually a Dark Souls thread that you can go and talk about your Bad Game exclusively in. I know Giant Dark Bomb Souls has been doing nothing but talking about and playing this game as well, but I would like to be able to check this thread to see when it stops and the all clear is sounded. Which I hope is soon because this nuke shelter is almost out of astronaut food and fruit by the foot.

I can't wait to see what they are releasing in February to disappoint me. If it helps Guardian of Light is unironically the best Tomb Raider game. But yeah coop probably makes that experience so befriend someone and enjoy your not particularly free game.

Optimus Subprime posted:No lie, the whole local multiplayer resurgence thing seems like the result of the insular culture of the industry. Outside of the long standing fighting game communities, I haven't personally played a local multiplayer games in years other than rock band. I for one have picked up pretty much all these local multiplayer games like samurai Gunn, Nidhogg, and divekick at full price and fully enjoyed them. It's nice to play games with cool people again that aren't on mame.

Optimus Subprime posted:I'm just saying it's pretty hard to get people together, have enough USB controllers to go around, plug my PC into a TV, etc when you're not in college. Get a bootleg xbox wireless receiver and get a use out of all your old 360 controllers now that your Xbox is in a dumpster because it is garbage.

Kasonic posted:Some of my best RTS memories are from the Stronghold Crusader scenario where you build a big fuckoff castle and then spawn 600 Slingers to die against your impenetrable walls. Mine from Crusader is turtling until you can recruit a cloud of two hundred horse archers and then exterminating all life forever.

Nohman posted:Jeff likes Metroid 1, which let us all be frank is a poo poo loving game by any modern standards, over Super Metroid. He is a a dangerously insane person. See also: ANY time he talks about food. Jeff Gerstmann doesn't like Super Metroid because he did not play it when he was thirteen which is a perfectly valid reason to not like the games that you personally played when you were thirteen.

Heroic Yoshimitsu posted:The games aren't remotely the same though? That's like saying "DMC3 is a poor imitation of Dynasty Warriors". They are both monkey cheese wacky anime cutscene games. Metal Gear Rising is not the best type of this game. It is not even the best type of this game in the Metal Gear franchise. Also Bayonetta is only good dmc game.

Lugaloco posted:Just finished the main story missions in Shadow of Mordor, it was never really anything special but it was at least functional. That is until the last two missions where it all falls apart in a bunch of lovely quicktime events. What the gently caress were they thinking? They had a great combat system + the Nemesis system and they just pissed it all away at the end when they could've come up with something decent. Felt like a publisher requirement. You've got to beat up sauron because this is a lotr game and that's the only reason people would buy a lotr game. But that's okay each mission is like ten minutes long and then they dump you back out into the good part of the game. Shadow of Mordor would be an all time classic if they just dumped that stinker of a license and created their own fiction. As it is it's just a really great game with a plot you try your best to ignore. Sort of like Borderlands.
