There's been some speculation regarding the Pyro's [url=http://www.screenshots.cc/view_image/82a6f1827/1191889593161.jpg]locker. There's a pink purse in there. With a flower.

Someone from the Taizo family? Mr. Driller has been on DS and Gamecube.

edit: Wait, or is it the Hori family? Either way, Susumu or Puchi would be good fits to fill the Namco quota.

I'm hoping w ...

It might not count, but in this Alan Wake video from last year, [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CLEBOn9K5Nk]4 minutes in, there's a tornado. It's just a tech demo so I don't know if the game will ...

i think i'm going to play it again.

Agreed.

I wish we could unlock Hard mode like in the Stranglehold demo though. This seems like a game that would be so awesome in Hard mode. Not that it's a b ...

Cool! I've been checking this thread every once in a while. Thanks for finding the news!

There's a 22-minute [url=http://www.gamespot.com/video/924919/6175068/bioshock-stage-demo]live demonstration at Gamespot. It's streaming-only though, but it's awesome.

It might turn off people he ...

Looks good! Though it makes me want a 2.5D Metroid game in that same style.

It's funny how seeing the Xbox games I own on that list makes me want to start them over again on the 360. Like Outrun 2.

[url=http://gonintendo.com/?p=21022]Nights: Journey of Dreams gameplay trailer

Looks pretty good! even though that video sounds like a commercial for a straight-to-DVD Disney movie.

Oh man this is some pretty heavy sounding stuff for GTA, I love it. No more Pay 'N Spray or Ammunations? I can deal, especially when the alternatives sound so much more interesting.

Yeah, I really ...

From gta4.net (from GamesTM):

The August issue of GamesTM (a multi-format games magazine based in the UK) contains a world exclusive first look at the new gameplay in Grand Theft Auto IV. Here's ...

Sandra O'Connor, the writer for Gears of War, is writing the script for Bioshock as well according to her

We don't have to make any judgements until we see the final game, though. And from the vid ...

dessgeega has the answer to it all

Sounds like a quote from Metroid.

basically a highlights reel of someone who chose to play the game like any other FPS

I would assume this is the case. Any other sort of gameplay isn't really easy to showcase in a short, minute lo ...

More new Bioshock footage! Someone on the 1up forums linked this recently.

I like these out-of-context segments of gameplay.

Yeah, "congraturation" on the baby! Teach him well in the ways of gaming Smile

Again, I want to stress how much I've loved this show throughout the few years it's been "on." It introduced me to Elevat ...

I'm playing the copy of Layer Section that I bought offa Wall of Beef! I've 1-credited to the final boss about 3 times now and died incredibly stupidly every time.

grrarr. i have yet to one-credit ...

I played through Elevator Action Returns three times in a row the other night. I used the blonde guy for a change. God this game is so fun. I really want Taito to whore this game out, releasing it on ...

well, i didn't actually pay for kororinpa!

my mother bought it, because she's the one with the wii. which means i don't actually get to play it that often! my sister has apparently already complete ...

It breaks down that advertisers believe that for the US you always have to emphasise individualism and competitiveness, hence one little guy being right up in the front like that, and the tagline 's ...

Yeah, I need to get back to that game.

Has anyone tried Far Cry yet? I hadn't seen it mentioned in this thread, but I remember Next Gen talking about how decent the controls were, so I was thinking ...

I'm pretty sure that the Wii is hyper sensitive to networks. Try going into your network settings and changing your wireless router's channel to either 1 or 11 (it's probably at 6 right now). It worke ...

Just in case anyone missed Slonie's awesome post:

Japan gets different iconography for their weather, Not Japanese Wii users, but actually the map seems to show different icons for Japan than the r ...

I made a pretty cool Roberta (from Black Lagoon) and set it to Mingle so hopefully she'll show up somewhere.

Yeah, I have that same issue. My Wii is configured with the same router and connection settings as my always-working-online 360, but it never works. It kind of tries once in a while, and then doesn't ...

In Dragon Quest 8 I named my character "Guv."

Defcon is actually one of the scariest games I've ever seen, even if all you're looking at is a world map.

Sort of. It's actually a bonus stage in WarioWare: Smooth Moves clearly inspired by Rhythm Tengoku.

God, this reminds me of Mind Game so much! I thin ...

I love the graphics, and the fact that it's 60fps.
I'm curious if you're playing this with coposite cables (non-HD) or not... because I notice huge framerate drops when things get hectic.

I'm play ...

Elebits has some spot-on control. The camera and movement are leaps and bounds better than Red Steel. I didn't have any problems at all!

I didn't have any problems with the tutorial. I actually lo ...

Mawaru Made in Wario (I only have the JP one) because it's easy to play, and hella fun. I don't have to reread the instruction book to figure out how to play the damn thing.

Actually I made that up ...

Metal Glug 6.

Which is of course a remake of Tapper using Metal Slug sprites.

Whoops! Actually that would be awesome.

Yeah, from the tutorials, I cannot figure out how to get the Air Spin...

I don't know if they did this for the WarioWare starfox, but I *really* hope they use the Wii-mote upright as a flightstic ...

Wow. I'm nowhere near that good at Excite Truck.

And also, about Starfox on Wario Ware! That made the video for me. The rest was already great, but when I saw Starfox with Wiimote control I lost it ...

The issue is that kimdb doesn't allow hotlinking. Tim was able to see them because they were still in his cache, so his browser did not need to contact the server (which would have resulted in him bei ...

That's weird that the images aren't working! I'm not having any problem with them...but I won't post any more of those, so I don't end up annoying anyone else. I apologize for the errors.

I loved Lord of War. Not classic, but solid enough. Could have been better without the internal monologue, I think. I'm not that knowledgeable about Korean movies beyond Park Chan-Wook's material (And ...

Your links don't work for the most part.

Really? I just tried them all, and I didn't have any problems (in Firefox). I even checked them before submitting the thread. Hm.

I've said before that I'm really feeling two Wii games that are almost universally disliked - Excite Truck and Red Steel. I don't really have full "reviews" as such, but I'll just say a few things abo ...

Oh Shaper... never happy... Sad

I notice that sometimes when I use the Wiimote for TG16 games, it goes into turbo mode, and I'm not sure why. I was playing Bonk and while swimming, he just started ...

I agree with the above post!

Pointing and shooting is fun and feels natural...when you don't have to move around a lot. Basically, turning is the only thing I have a gripe with. Sometimes the curso ...

They promised TG-16 games at launch (which we just got last week).

Space Harrier 2 and Gunstar Heroes were also supposed to be available.

To do internet stuff you have to create an account at MyNintendo.com.

Is that true? Am I missing out on something available right now by not doing that?

So you didn't have to, and you can still ...

So if I were to import a Japanese Wii, would I be able to pay for Wii points and purchase VC games in the U.S.? Will a U.S. credit card work for buying things in foreign currancy? I have no experience ...

Wow. That Metroid run is amazing.

I have to say, I generally enjoy tool assisted runs more than regular ones. This one almost goes to far in terms of skipping Ridley, and a bit of save state abuse ...

Yeah, I really need to catch up on these. I'm like 4 episodes behind now!

I'm looking forward to this regardless. I always liked the diverse selection of games, and that the show is all game footag ...

Is that link to the file working for everybody else?

No, it didn't work for me, either! I really want to see this, too.

He took the gum out of his mouth and attached it to an empty cartridge, and then burned it with his lighter. This somehow created another bullet.

I forgot to mention how awesome I thought this was ...
