I'm glad that they did go ahead and put Peach in Mario Rabbids as a playable character. She hasn't been kidnapped or anything so there's no reason she shouldn't be playable. Also the fact that she's another shotgun user also helps.

she’s the worst character in the game but that’s mainly because her skill set revolves around increasing survivability while the game ranks you on how fast you snuff out the opposing team

What Rabbid Peach? I just had two Peaches. I thought it was a glitch except one is infinitely better than the other at making enemies not-alive.

The final case using the original Cornered theme from the first game for the case breaking accusation was just this super awesome touch Also if you’re a person who loves big fucken twists with incredibly charming and likable characters, rocking music and amazing sprite graphics get yourself some Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective. Me saying there’s twists isn’t a spoiler because the entire game is a whodunnit and I cannot overstate how good the characters and music are Calaveron has a new favorite as of 03:19 on Dec 3, 2019 |

It's an overwatch skill being demonstrated in the video but that's exactly how her gun works. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aDueo2lg1WI&t=38s Oxxidation posted:she’s the worst character in the game but that’s mainly because her skill set revolves around increasing survivability while the game ranks you on how fast you snuff out the opposing team True, but her gun will shred cover on basically every shot though so that's basically enough to make me overlook a lot of flaws. Really, Rabbid Luigi doing 160 damage a slide makes him basically the most used character in the game so far for me. I never bother with his shield or rocket with how much damage he does between that and the gun.

theHunter: Call of the Wild - for something that I expected to be a shovelware eurojank simulator, drat is it pretty. Really beautiful environments, probably the most realistic foliage I've seen in any game. Also very good bird sounds, crickets, it's really the perfect chill stroll through a forest simulator.

Hah, this sidequest in Jinx frustrated me initially but talking to the giver gives you a hint that makes it actually really fun. The idea is that a zookeeper has lost 8 animals, 4 pairs, and needs them retrieving. Normally those kinds of collectibles are either evenly split between the 3 levels, which cannot happen here as there are 8, or they are all in one level together. However in this case the animals ran off to their own habitats. The aardvarks went to the spooky levels as they like the dark, the giraffes to the water levels as they like being near water, the camels to the desert levels because of course, and the hippos are probably at the pirate level that I haven't got to yet. That's cute.

FFXIV: In the earlier part of the game, you have dinner with an Empress where she gets poisoned and it leads to a bunch of dramatic shenanigans. A full expansion later, you have dinner with your buddy the elf general guy. When he proposes a toast, your character gives the glasses and bottle a conspicuously long, leery stare.

Last night I played through the Battletoads arcade game. It’s very bad and I do not recommend it, but there are a few little things that I want to mention. First, during the one vertically scrolling stage each of the toads gets a different flight-assisting backpack. Rash, the shortest one, gets two massive rockets strapped to his back (overcompensating much?). Second, there are large rat enemies and when you grab them you grab their dick and deliver several punches to their balls. Lastly, and the one that prompted this post in the first place, when playing as Zitz and pummeling an enemy on the ground, the final attack has him turn his hand into a drill which he forces into the enemy, accompanied with a geyser of blood.

While they might be pricier than you'd want, and they don't have some of the QoL changes that got back-ported to the Phoenix Wright HD collection, you can play them all on your phone.

Between that and Timesplitters, they had a much higher batting average than most developers.

CJacobs posted:Sorry, you said this game was bad? PJ DiCesare has done a couple of runs of the game for GDQ, and it's pretty obvious that the game is at best unfinished. Like, the final boss has a death sequence that would be comically drawn-out if it weren't playable and require dodging the same not-very-complicated attack pattern for several minutes. It's also heavily tuned against the player, presumably to enhance its revenue-generating potential. It's possible to 1CC (win without having to buy more lives) but only if you know exactly what you're doing.

It's possible to 1CC (win without having to buy more lives) but only if you know exactly what you're doing. The game is a mess of bad design created to gobble quarters like mad. The second boss, for example, is invincible for most of the fight, and his one attack deals between 70 and 90% of your health. There are areas where enemies are dropped on you rapidly, each one doing about 20% of your health and giving you no I-frames. There are only two buttons (attack and jump) with no supers or bombs (outside of two scrolling stages) and no moves to mix up the endless combat. I put in over 50 credits trying to see the end and wound up dozing off during the final boss, coming to on the title screen. Avoid at all costs, almost zero redemptive value.

Death Stranding little thing: The Veteran Porter side character's face model is Sam Lake (the creator of Max Payne and his original face) and all the lost cargo you pick up for him is junk food, booze, and pills. It's like Max Payne himself is giving me orders to deliver stuff for him! I don't know if this is a coincidence or what, if so it's a hell of one. Given how much Kojima adores his fellow game dev friends, it may very well be a real reference.

I'd say after some thought that it's absolutely on purpose. Another side character's face model is Jordan Vogt-Roberts, director of Kong: Skull Island, and one of his major deliveries is to retrieve "Giant Gorilla" and "Giant Dinosaur" action figures.  edit: There's also one who is a big name at Famitsu in real life- one of his specific deliveries is infiltrating a bandit camp to retrieve a stolen shipment of "Tactical Action Games". HMMMMM. I'm sure there are even more that I didn't recognize, pretty much all of the side characters have the faces of people Kojima is friends with irl.

e;f,b Probably on purpose. The film director is the director of Kong: Skull Island and beyond film reels you also deliver gorilla figurines to him. Near him is the collector, portrayed by someone who worked for Famitsu (video game magazine). He’ll ask for classic video game consoles. Mierenneuker has a new favorite as of 18:23 on Dec 3, 2019 |

There is also of course Geoff Keighly as the Ludens Fan, and pretty much all of his deliveries are literally Kojima Productions memorabilia you can buy in real life.
