it's an okay platinum thing but it has a really dumb minigame and isnt all that compelling

it feels like they got four random guys to do it off in a corner while the rest of them got laid and made bayo2

It's shorter than Bayonetta but pretty good. Def. A Platinum game

It's pretty good. I liked 1 better than 2. It's basically just a third person action game with light horror elements, though. Don't expect it to be a straight up horror game. Never played 3.

i havent played any dead space game but from what ive heard secondhand 3 went into full-on cover shooter territory and abandoned the horror altogether

best part about dead space is shooting monster arms off with the plasma cutter. it feels really good. hitting a monster about to pounce on you with stasis is real fun and nice too.

you can also make an excitable friend play the first couple of chapters and watch them flip the gently caress out. that's fun too.

Do you like shoot em ups? It's that but in 3D, i beat it in an hour and a half, but there's a few difficulty options. And half of playing a shoot em up is replaying the same game arcade style anyways.

Since they're on sale, has anyone The Legend of Korra game or Dangan Ronpa 2? I'm interested in the Korra game because it's made by Platinum and they rule, but it didn't get good reviews and I've never watched the show. I like visual novels such as Phoenix Wright and I read the Let's Play of Dangan Ronpa 1 which seemed cool, but I'm not sure if the second one is worth it and I would like some Imp feedback.

Korra's probably the worst game platinum's done, but it's still kinda ok, I would play any other platinum game over it though.

MW at least had music to fall back on. And better aesthetics really, Korra is surprisingly plain. The gameplay is better in Korra though

dead space 1 and 2 are both pretty good. I like 2 more because it has some cool varied settings. Dead space 3 is warmed over crap but is worth playing I guess if you're trapped in asiberian prison with nothing but a pc and an origin account though.

3 is only worth a playthrough if you've got a co-op partner.

my favorite part about ds 3 was that isaac would get like knocked off a cliff or something in a cutscene and then other guy would just be there. Isaac and other guy had the best love story in videogame history.

I liked 3 alone, but a partner is definitely good to have.

The Contact Beam breaks the game, though. Me and my friend were making a large profit on ammo using it.

IMO, while I respect the right of the OP to make this thread, I think you should always just make a new thread for this, instead.

I just remembered that in Dead Space 2 they had Isaac talk and he had some epic action movie lines. It's fun, but it moves further away from the horror stuff.

isaac talking owns

in 2 he's just kind of angry and disoriented and upset

in 3 he's just pissed off and tired of it so when people try to freak out he's like "Okay, stay away from vents, cut off their limbs" and hangs up

at one point instead of giving a telekinesis tutorial during an area where you're probably low on ammo he whips out the video from the dead guy in 2 and lets it play for his teammates

Dead Space 3 is really, really terrible but it was kind of fun as a co-op game, lolling w/ a pal @ how bad the writing was.

actually, yeah Korra is gay now thank you for being open to others

re:chat if you haven't watched the show you might not have as much fun since it takes place between seasons 3 and 4 or something. It's fun if you like Platinum but if you liked and understand the other game's predecessor maybe go for that.

It's really disappointing how they rapidly ruined the series.

Dead Space 2 was probably better than the first gameplay-wise, at least up until the end, but these are story-driven resident evil games and the way they did it was embarrassing.

i like a lot of things about dead space but 3 is written really badly but it has some cool setpieces

carver. let's get into this giant drill's track, and shoot it until it starts, and have a necromorph mosh pit in its path

floating in space is also really good in single player but if you're playing multiplayer and you can see the other person it's hilariously awkward

there's a bunch of really cool design stuff i could sperg about for a long time

i think the actual creepiest thing in the game is the dudes who ate necromorphs who are locked in a freezer who are the replacement for the feral kids from 2, and they're still alive + thinking but completely insane and they've been that way since stuff hosed up on that planet. you can hear them screaming to be let out by a dude in an audiolog and they just sound like really angry insane people

2 has the most cool new necromorphs, 3 tends to rely on the new tomahawk dudes a lot, and older designs like the babydog tentacle thing and the tank and the spitty guy

all 3 games have some cool guns and all three have a few that are clearly The Best and contact beam/plasma cutter are always in that category

Yeah. 2 did this thing where you get the impression that the developers were sitting around the room designing a cool shooter and then someone was like "Wait, let's add a scare" so they made a loud noise play behind you at certain parts. It's really goofy.

i haven't gotten very far in dr2 yet but it's pretty fun. presentation is way better than in dr1, visuals are good, sound design and music are much better (the beach sfx in the beginning was really good, trapped by the ocean song etc). probably worth what they're asking for.

The writing is still hilarious garbage, as are the characters. Avoid, imo
