It was a podcast game for me.

Especially with the postgame grind that I knew was optional and especially doing it for that dumb-as-poo poo cutscene that I could have watched on YouTube was foolish in hindsight

I don't get this kind of thing. If a game is so unengaging that you need another thing going on for it to be ok, maybe just play or do something else? I mean it's your free time but I dunno...

I finished WarioWare, it was a fun way to spend a few hours and a great selling point for the Wii's motion controls. It really gives you an idea of the kinda games that are possible.

I'm now playing Gears of War 1 which is I think the most aggressively manly man game for bros to play while they're broing it bro-style and while the graphics are definitely a step up on recent games I've played there's also a huge lack of colour. Despite those issues I'm still having a good time. The characters who aren't Marcus Fenix are good and the early death rate was pretty shocking. Plus it's got a gun which lets you fire a laser from space and I always be here for that kinda thing.

Gears never gets any less stupid but the general level design and gunplay get better. Gears 3 is great fun and also has hilarious melodrama where people with biceps the size of dogs cry about the horrors of war. it's awesome.

Anybody here fans of giallo? What is your favorite game that you could describe as giallo?

Giallo is basically a sorta weird exploitation horror style of film and giallo games definitely exist (clock tower for snes and any other horror game by that dude counts) but they tend to...idk, it's weird. I was reading a conversation in the CineD horror thread about giallo and people described it as almost being like a stoner horror film. What would you say your favorite giallo game is, or at least name a game that you think can be described as giallo.

giallo is weird violent stuff but also detective stuff. so does this count?

When I think of giallo I think of some kind of exploitation slasher noir film and I don't think I can really recall any videogames like that. They're not really straight horror films.

Maybe Condemned?

Pinball Arcade Losing Over 50 Bally and Williams Tables On June 30th
Farsight Studios have announced via Facebook that their licensing agreement for the Williams and Bally pinball trademarks will not be renewed. Tables manufactured by those two companies will no longer be purchasable within Pinball Arcade on all platforms. This includes everything from Medival Madness and Black Knight 2000 to licensed titles such as Doctor Who and Terminator 2: Judgement Day. The latter pair is notable, as they are two of the five crowdfunded tables present in the current game. All these Kickstarter successes will no longer be available to purchase once the update rolls out.

Overall, Pinball Arcade will be reduced from the current 95 tables to just 33.




Lol. Mega RIP. Just say you're not supporting the game anymore. De-list it.

GTA4 recently patched out most of its music

It is not. The one good thing about the original (cool parkour routes) is hosed up because it's open world so you have to redo them multiple times and they can't be too intricate.

I just saw two TV commercials in a row, from Facebook and Wells Fargo, that were the same template of "Sorry we were extremely lovely mega-corporations, but trust us, everything is gonna be different"

Who do these commercials actually convince

They are meant to convince the investors who think those are convincing to poor people that the company will save its image

The underground segments of Gears of War do a great job of emphasising how claustrophobic and isolating it feels and I found a bow that shoots grenades, which is pretty cool. We're now off to get a McGuffin that just happens to be at Marcus's old home which feels a bit convenient but sure, whatever

Yeah, the thing about Gears is that it did get copied a lot and it did get some silly sequels but there's a reason it was a phenomenon. That level of popularity doesn't come out of nowhere, you know?

so you're saying, in the beginning you get shot in the head, and then you ride your boat to the island of the guy who can increase your stats, but you have to sail through pirate-ridden waters to get there so you have to just hide and cross your fingers, and when you get there you have to get the guards and the pirates to fight each other because you don't want to gain any levels until you get Might +1 because of how it scales at level up but you need thousands of gold pieces to increase your stats
