PantsBandit posted:How well has Donkey Kong Country aged? I'm thinking of purchasing it using my New Nintendo 3DS. I still like it but I've heard enough people say it looks bad and plays bad to say you should probably just try it to see for yourself. Or perhaps even wait for the second one if it's not already on 3DS since it's the favorite.

Broseph Brostar posted:So I started playing Project X Zone 2. What a mess of a game, I have no clue what is going on or what anybody is talking about or who half of these people are. That's because not only is it a cameo game, it's like the fifth game in a series of cameo games that all share the same continuity.

VideoGames posted:That was pretty cool and I'm starting to get used to the dpad movement controls instead of the sticks. It's a really well made game. MGS had analog stick support so you should be able to use them, if you're playing on PS3 there should be an option in the menu when you press the home button.

Guy Mann posted:The Fat Lesbian Lisa Simpson dinosaur is the worst because not only is she incredibly annoying but she's a terrible person who is directly responsible for pretty much every bad thing in the game and nobody really calls her out on being a complete monster. Probably because a lot of people have such a raging hardon against anime that it's seen as the greater offense.

I remember getting to one of the later levels in Catherine, and I had screwed up somewhere and it was too late to backpedal, so I started just pushing random blocks and got the entire stage to drop which caused the game to literally stop and have to chug until it could get the blocks to drop. To its credit it never crashed and eventually went back to normal after they all fell.

FactsAreUseless posted:Is Darksiders any good? Both games together are $5 on Steam. I liked the first game and what little I've played of the second. Like they're not masterclass games or anything and are a bit unremarkable in parts since they're clearly inspired by other games but it's still fun the way they're put together. There's also a secret boss in the first game which is a skeleton with a top hat and a cane.

Motto posted:I can't think of a game so scarce that you couldn't find a copy near release. Even right now I could go over to a gamestop and pick up the Trails of Cold Steel if I hadn't already. Trauma from the days of rare JRPGs and niche games, which stopped being rare sometime after digital distribution became common. I still remember when most of Atlus' games were impossible to get if you didn't preorder them.

I only ever liked the first Jak game and the first Ratchet game was so boring I fell asleep during it on a couple occasions. Of course I never really tried the later Jak games, the GTA comparisons and gunplay stuff turned me off super hard.

Iron Keep is still my least favorite area, just because they threw way too many of those Alonne Knights in there and they just sort of teleport to you so you can't run past them. That's still the only boss run in the entire series where I couldn't find a route to just run to the boss. That's the other thing that goes against the "these games are super hard" thing, when you know an area you can typically run past every enemy because you know where they are and how to avoid them.

How the original Deus Ex handles it's multiple choice ending is really loving cool. You get to the final area and keep getting handed different objectives by the multiple factions in the game, and if you start doing an objective for one faction the others start yelling at you to change your mind which you can totally do up until you finish one.

The only thing that bothers me in old school localization is just stuff that was unclear but that's less about "CENSORSHIP!" and more about the fact that I would have liked to know that you can cancel the super attack the Masamune boss in Chrono Trigger has with the Slash move, a fact that was not even alluded to in the SNES game but made perfect sense in the DS version. Oh, and also that bullshit where they would change the difficulty for the US release. You've got stuff on one end like Final Fantasy IV where they made it easier, and then stuff like Bayou Billy and Castlevania 3 where they made it a ton harder.

raditts posted:For the most part I agree with you, but even when I was a kid I could recognize the terrible grammar in the FF2US translation. If FF5 ever came out that would've been even worse, if the PSX version was any indication. As I recall from an ancient Official Playstation magazine article, at one point the entire script of FFV was accidentally replaced with the translation office's emails for the past month or something like that. I need to lookup that issue, a lot of stuff about the PS1 FFV makes sense after I remembered reading that.

In Training posted:This happened to PS2 memory cards and Soul Calibur 2 as well. Frightening stuff. Soul Calibur II? All I remember is SCIII had a glitch that would eventually corrupt your save file for that game, but not the whole card. Then there was that demo disc that wiped people's memory cards that got so many complaints that they started handing out (cheap, overstocked) games for free.
