The Gamer's Quarter

Well, looks like the second two maps are up on VS. Dead air is tricky! All those rooftops.
Was there an update, or are you referring to the hack (rename the maps as versus maps).

In order:

Liberty City (GTAIV)
Blood Harvest stage 4 (Left 4 Dead)
WarioWare Inc. (SSB:Brawl)
Torlan [still awesome] (UT3)

I'd like to blame this thread's demise on the subject name change.
I just haven't been playing this because of the holidays. Hopefully I'll get to play later tonight though. I'm glad I've got some pe ...

I want to frame this thread and put it on my wall.

just purchased this last night, anyone want to play on steam sometime?
add me, dmauro on Steam. I'm often on in the evening (EST).

FINAL DESTINATION

Razz

Did anyone else notice that there's an homage achievement to Dead Rising?
Did you notice the writing on the wall of one of the safe houses that says something to the effect of:

I killed 10

3. This game seems to be all about the shooting and I find the shooting to be the least interesting aspect of FPS games.
That's because you haven't played versus. The game is actually about stopping ...

Very Happy

the two split-screen players then can connect online via only one live account. Although, I think only one of them gets full mic use (?)

How about running people that are infected with a scary disease which you are immune to?

I've been playing the game at an unprecedented rate. In two evenings I logged 16 hours. :0

I'm not sure anything can beat out Brawl for my '08 of the year. It's more rad than rad. But I guess I'll see once I get to the rest of the levels in Left 4 Dead.

Having said that: I can't run St ...

helicopterp, my steam name is dmauro. Add me tonight. Gamestop didn't get my copy in today, so I might just buy it on Steam instead. If I'm not on tonight I'll definitely be on tomorrow night.

We Cheer is kind of cool, it's very similar to Ouendan, but from the little bit that I played I don't know that it's going to reach beyond it's intended target audience by much.

Is anyone still playing this? The one friend of mine that can actually hold his own against me is back in town so I've been playing again. I think I've unlocked all the music because the CDs seem to h ...

SSB Brawl is the best game I've played all year. Play it with friends, play it against the computer, turn all the items off, turn just pokeballs on, etc. Just do one thing first, get a classic control ...

I know more people with HDTVs than I do people that play video games on those TVs.

With Portal I felt like there was much more of a sense of attacking the puzzles from different angles until you found one that worked. Watching my friend play Portal, he came up with ways through it t ...

67,866 is my current top score. This game is fantastic.

When I saw your pen name I hated it fucking IMMEDIATELY, before I even knew it was you.

EDIT: Don't rag on me here, if I learned Anna Anthropy was Dess in this thread, then this post would just bee ...

It's best to play dumb. Smart move. If they know you know they'll only watch more carefully.

For those who didn't know, you can go to your My Spore Creations\Creatures folder, take the png files there, and send them to people or put them on the internet. People can then download them, put the ...

That is awesome.

You can! It's kind of tricky but if you have Twilight Princess you can use an exploit in that game to run a program that allows you to copy saves to and from the Wii internal memory that you are nomra ...

I would play that game. I think what would really seal the deal is if for each character you play you are given a strong sympathetic push to want to meet the goals the current protagonist is aiming fo ...

Maybe I'm the only one that likes this game enough to still be playing it and talking about it, but I've [url=http://www.fort90.com/journal/?p=587]written a little bit about Brawl and why I think it's ...

Just a warning to anyone who is thinking about buying Defend Your Castle. It's probably the most boring game I've ever played. It's really my least favorite thing. Try out the demo for yourselves:

i said the same thing in the third post.

Sad

Yeah definitely. But it still doesn't explain Machi.

Apparently it was re-released on the PSP less than two years ago. Perhaps this was enough to remind people that they really liked it back then so they included it on their list of favorites?

EDIT: SSBB is so new that it's far too presumptuous to include it on any list yet.
It's on my list of Top 10 for sure, probably Top 5 even. I'm not being presumptuous; three months of solid play has ...

I just deleted Sin and Punishment to make TV Show King fit. It's really fun! Typical quiz game...but I'm a sucker for them, so yay.
This looks like a joke post at first glance. I guess if you really ...

So, dumb question:
sometimes the Mission person's letter on the map has a subscript... is this meaningful or does it just help differentiate things when they would otherwise have the same initial?

The problem I've had with restriction in the narrative missions is that I'm trying to play the Niko Bellic from the trailers. You know, they guy who is hoping maybe things will be different this time. ...

I think a strong testament to how well they've captured the essence of the city is not so much how I'm reminded of where I live when I play the game, but how much I'm reminded of the game as I walk ab ...

On the topic of having to do missions to unlock stuff, that's nothing new to GTA. You always had to unlock new areas. The nice thing about GTAIV is that I don't actually have to unlock any of the othe ...

Helicopterp, have you played MX Unleashed for the XBOX? I've never played Excitebike 64, but MX Unleashed plays how I would imagine it would. It's pretty sweet.

So any tips, folks?

Any speculation or fact on which version will be superior? I don't want to get the PS3 version and have it be all buggy and screwed up.
Then get the 360 version. (speculation: The 360 is easier to d ...

Why does it say 20% of ALL in-stock items when only SOME in-stock items are marked down?

That is really excellent.

You have to unlock every character to get events 29 - 40 I believe.

Playing in stamina (HP) mode is strange. You don't accumulate damage, so you don't progressively get knocked back further and fur ...

Unwashed, do you know about the [url=http://us.codejunkies.com/Products/Wii-FreeLoader__EF000593.aspx]Wii Freeloader? It is the answer to your Wario prayers.

The best is when someone activates his final smash over a pit and they slooowly dance their way down and off the screen while not being able to do a thing about it.

When Snake takes his cardboard box off, it can hit opponents for damage (and a KO in instant death as seen in some youtube video).

In Yoshi's Island, baby Luigi is scared and crying and baby Mario is going to rescue him. In the US Super Mario Bros. 2 he's got that floaty jump, which kind of sets the standard for his moveset in Sm ...

Back to Olimar, I figured out [url=http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=152191]how his whistle works for anyone interested (it helps drastically). I finally got some decent online matches in to ...

Wario is pretty cool. He's got the DI (ease of changing momentum in the air) of squirtle and the forward smash launch power of Ike. The range of his attacks is really bad though, so it's up to you to ...

The pikmin ARE all of his A attacks. I think the only attacks Olimar does by himself are his neutral air, dash attack, and his tilts. But all of his smashes, his grab, and his other aerials are all do ...

Gimpyfish has done some pretty amazing things with MK. He may not have direct KO ability, but he can edge guard pretty well.

I am also a huge fan of * R.O.B. *. His nuetral air is ridiculous and hi ...

I think it was in another forum that someone mentioned knowing the controls will really help you get over the "floaty" feel that is giving you a hard time in the SSE:
