The Gamer's Quarter

oh SB, never forget your genesis in the TGQ wastelands!

tiiiiiiiiiiim

....hello?

Also, were you actually to explore the logical consequences of Chosen, Buffy and Willow made a huge ass mistake. If you activate hundreds of superheros all over the world the vampires will be wiped o ...

Shit man, 5's the best season for Spike, Xander, Anya, and Dawn. Giles' best season was 4, Willow's might have been 3, and Buffy has a bunch of great ones, but overall, 5 is where it's at. And you n ...

Here's the problem with Macs: they are very, very expensive. You could build yourself a desktop PC that is more powerful than the macbook pro for half the price, maxmimum. If you can stomach that pi ...

God, I should really buy the rest of Buffy.

(Yeah, I only own the first four seasons. I find this strange as well!)

Because the director's chief task is to cull their talents and desires into an identifiable, focused intent?

That all sounds like just about the worst thing ever.

These "3D chips" were unnecessary and a little condescending anyway; imagine if Starfox had costed a hundred dollars, or required an add-on? T ...

I am the only person in the world who really likes Final Fantasy X-2! I think if you give it a fair shake, it holds up as a fairly good RPG. Also, you can beat the game and get one of the good endings ...

Well, yeah, I'm clearly exagerrating here.

Get better TOLL, we love you! SERECT BUTTON

He was the designer of all the other games he mentioned though, that I recall: God of War, Twisted Metal, and Warhawk were most definitely his games.

Best parts: Jaffe mistakenly calling Neogaf Gamefaqs, and then pretending he created Shadow of the Colossus.

Still, uhhh, yeah. I thought God of War was shit and Jaffe, in interviews, sounded like ...

Yeah, uhh, it's just an expression, guys. Losely translated to mean "fuck it really hard for a long, long time" I guess. If the anal visual helps, then by all means!

No no:

PRESS A TO ROLL, HOMEY

If you want to be, I guess.

I can play horns too, if someone wants to bring a trumpet or sousaphone.

<obligatory "rudie will still be in Japan" joke>

Alternatively: google

Uuh... I think it's pretty obviously sincere!

I mean, she's clearly trying to imitate a style she sees as being classy or something. She's also way over-extending her English abilities. And she o ...

so is there more to this game than "videogames lol" + "hey looks like killer7"?

It looks like Suda is going to rip GTA and its fans a new one. As one would expect with this kind of thing, he'll ha ...

Well, I'm not really much of an IF/graphic adventure kind of guy, really. Every now and again something will pop up from that underground that compels me, but I don't actively seek these things.

T ...

I think the theatric quality came mostly from the fact that the game was one giant chase scene.

I always wanted a chase scene game. I spoke about it at great length once. Then Half Life 2 came ou ...

Also of note: why hadn't I ever seen that guy's site before? He may not be a writer, but he's at least writing something intersting about video games! How novel.

(i spent a lot of time snooping on the sapphists.)

total extralife game amirite

Also: sold.

Not that I was expecting it to suck or anything. I wish broderbund/whoever produced more than six ...

I was playing Strider the other day, and it hit me that there's no way that game could be made, today, like it was made in 1989. It has so many awesome parts akin to what we might today call "set pei ...

I know. I can't help it. IT HAS INFECTED ME!!

Oh god the Half Life 2 hate in this thread is killing me.

manufactured pop idols do not get the benefit of being sincere, sorry.

her vagina looks like a warzone.

Sands of Time

never heard this analogy before. i've heard some ppl say that Twilight Princess improves on SotC. sounds like a similar, and interesting (to say the least) analogy.

The only Tw ...

I think Mechner is out of the gaming industry again. Like a great deal of other talented designers, his tastes seem to be too broad for the current single-minded focus of video games. Oh well.

No ...

Man, I don't think there's anyone alive that wouldn't at least be mildly interested in playing as Travis Touchdown in the town of Santa Destroy.

Guardian, despite your strong feelings about the game's merit, if Shadow of the Colossus, or any other work of art, fails on a fundamental level to engage the viewer, the blame for this failure lies ( ...

First, it's called No More Heroes, which sounds kind of cool and will almost certainly be changed for the US release. Second, we have a 1up preview from which we can maybe glean something. As in, t ...

With something approaching sensible english.

Everyone with any sort of artistic ability/computer-y know how should make about a million damn banners. WE NEED MORE! SO MANY MORE

hey guys the new largeprimenumbers banner is pretty nice huh
...

I'm so down.

fuck, man, this party sounds swingin'

lololololololol

...isn't that the same thing?

What does matter if Ketch is using a guide. There's no wrong to play the game so extralife and internisus, you guys need to stop being cockfaces.

There is totally a wrong way to play the game ok. ...

james why do you hate yourself

Everyone with any sort of artistic ability/computer-y know how should make about a million damn banners. WE NEED MORE! SO MANY MORE

if you guys can get a hold of a drum kit and a microphone / stand and a reasonable-small-sized amp, i can bring my brother's stratocaster (renting a car) toups can play the drums and my girlfriend can ...

Turn the "your" into "yo" and that shit is golden.

Also, WIlkes, I hope you realize how very rare it is for something to go as you expect it. Go wilkes!

I guess that's it: wilkes won the forum axe. time to back up shop, guys.

vinny there is no such thing as a place "filling up" for a party. that shit just keeps coming until people stumble on to the streets and pass out and someone tries to drive drunk and runs one of them ...

Beyond Good and Evil is worth playing if only for the amazing first ten minutes.

Kojima and the dudes from the blue hearts/high-lows/cro magnons of course

I think he hooked his wii up to a female to female extension cable if you know what I mean
