If you're going to watch The Fifth Element, watch it on Blu-ray to see Ruby Rhod in glorious 1080p. Also because the Project Popart steelbook blu-ray of it has art.

Yo, realtalk, I love the poo poo out of the Riddick movies, especially when they basically turned into comic-book superhero movies. I even like the latest one, at least the first half where it's The Adventures of Riddick And His Pet Spacedog, but I still enjoyed when it looped back into being Pitch Black in the second half.

Physics engines are the best thing about modern video games and I hope they are never fixed. In fact, I hope they get buggier.

The Thing videogame on the PS2 was a neat idea; it was a third-person shooter where you could had a squad of dudes and they had varying levels of fear which is affected by how dark the area they're in is, how much it's being lit, whether they have a weapon or not, and stuff like that. They're too scared, they'll either kill themselves, attack everyone around them, attack the environment around them, or just keel over from a heart attack. They also had a trust mechanic where they might not follow your orders if they think you're a Thing, or just straight up attack you if they're convinced you're a Thing. But if they trust you completely, they'll even help you kill fellow NPCs if you friendly-fire them too much. It was a neat idea, but I only rented it once way back in the day. Wish I could've played it more, I liked the idea.

I'm still afraid to rewatch it see what it's like decade after being scared shitless by it. I've watched it tons of times as well, but I've only seen That Scene In The Dog Kennel like maybe three times completely through, I usually skip it.

It's the age-old huge-budget-huger-return mentality; it's a bad ideation that caused several companies to lose a ton of money chasing those Call of Duty numbers and that AAA market's going to crash mighty soon I think. It's why most of the games I've been playing and enjoying these days are either indie stuff or Nintendo stuff.

The best Silent Protagonist is Link of Legend of Zelda because he gets talked into doing everything because he can't say the word "no."

Blind Sally posted:Silent protagonists sometimes work. In Killzone 2 & 3, Sev doesn't speak because no one asks him relevant questions. They order him around and the assumption is that he follows those orders and shoots this or blows up that. He speaks in cutscenes, so personality gets developed that doesn't contradict gameplay (which is the need to kill to complete orders and not die). I liked that it's outright a gag at several points where he tries to talk and is immediately interrupted. There's also a special ending in Chrono Trigger where Crono talks, I remember liking that.

"We're far from civilization on a planet cold enough to freeze us in seconds surrounded by changelings that can endlessly regenerate themselves, thus defying basic physics, but you better not look at my woman.

You don't use Stasis on the children because that would be cruel. Also, right when that gunship comes in and starts tearing the room up, I had way too good of a laugh at the look on the dude's face as he was grabbing onto Isaac still, even after Daina and his buddy got gunned the gently caress down. He's trying to hold on to him, and you can see in a singular moment him realizing just how hosed he is. The room has been vented of atmosphere, there's a ship with gatling guns just outside the window and already with a good bead on you, and the one person you're holding onto? He has an EVA-capable suit. You have clothes. The exact moment the realization hits him.

Pregnants can and will cut their own abdomen open to unleash their payload if you hurt them enough without stopping them from doing so; that's what happened in that scenario, used its blade arms to cut its stomach open! I can see and understand why the mine launcher's not a great gun in Dead Space, it's not the right sort of gun for the kind of game Dead Space is. It would be amazing in the early Bioshocks, where you have time to set up traps and enemies aren't several times faster than you. Dead Space is a survival horror, and you need guns that can put out a lot of hurt in a short amount of time on demand, and it has the whole dismemberment mechanic going for it. And Ellie actually looks like a regular person instead of a videogame woman, wow.
