  1. His 'autobiography' Spoilered for language
  2. I love these games. Some Japan Pro Wrestling!
  3. The only Zelda game I can remember dying in was the first. The later ones are easier at first, but they also tend to come with hero modes. I've got Wind Waker HD's queued up and the idea of playing through the game without heart drops sounds like playing Sonic without rings.
  4. This is an attitude more people need to take in the real world when judging people and companies but it totally doesn't apply to the world of puro where 2019 will probably see Daichi's top and bottom halves of his body splinter in order to form Fall Japan and Pro Wrestling LOWER.
  5. Playing Star Nose for the first time with friends while drunk is the hardest I can remember laughing. If you knock off two of the reallys this is basically how I described it to a friend who was thinking of getting it. I hate to go down the 'you should like it because of how much effort you presume it took to make' because that's how the budget = score mentally comes up, but yeah, one guy. Baroque was a PS2 game originally. And to weigh in on the re-release issue, if I were voting Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition would be a serious contender. The best kind of game-breaking, distinct from the original release, and arguably the definitive version of the original release (all the content, GC controller) either way.
  6. ^This is why people should always use gen numbers. No ambiguity and much quicker to type.
  7. Love to read gamegushing so the GoW endorsement was a treat to read (though a little Tim Rogers-ey at points). I always endorse platform agnosticism and usually make the point that the only real outcome of my aversion to Microsoft is the tragic absence of Gears of War and Cave STGs in my life. I won't be saying that any more as this thread has prodded my memory into recalling that the original game was also released on PC. So off I go to enter the murky world of PC gaming to spend hours trying to research how to get it to run.
  8. 2013 was crazy. I wouldn't be surprised if people look back and say it had the best system year for Gen 7 (PS3) and the best system year for Gen 8 (3DS) at the same time. And that's before even mentioning the likes of Dota 2 and 3D World.
  9. If you need to have multiple posters dedicated to a particular platform to make it viable then just say PS3 and 360 only. Otherwise soak up the tears like the rest of us and accept that PC and Wii are going to be the red headed step children with Apple, DS, mobile and PSP being I HAVE NO SON whitewashed from the history books.
  10. Hopefully Magmatic Bustard catches on.
  11. We're in the pretty boy era. Not being a hoss works in AJ's favour.
  12. I've got 3 Wii games still shrink-wrapped. Out of my 207 unplayed games. In my defence, I've got a few games I never planned to play from PC bundles, and 29 are unplayed games from Taito Legends 2 on PS2. Okay that's not much of a defence. Help.
  13. The AJ Styles attack and title challenge was introduced in the best possible way - moments after a staredown implying a Fale title challenge. Never been so glad to see the guy.
  14. Almost the entirety of SNK's early output. I rated Art of Fighting 2/10 and it's one of the coolest games I've ever played.
  15. Ha. Putting on a Wataru Inoue retirement show ends NJPW's six month run of selling out Korakuen Hall.
  16. That's one of the downsides of Nintendo's low cost entry approach - no one chucks their PS3 out the window when servers are closed because it's too expensive and they've usually got months left on their PSN sub.
  17. Somewhere in a parallel dimension Stop Making Sense is recognised as the greatest movie of all time and credited for ascending the medium away from 'little boy's sleds and space obelisks' as it picks up movie of the year at the prestigious Grammy Film Awards. This is the best analogy I can think of to try and explain why people think the media acclaim for The Last of Us is ridiculous without implying that the game is anything other than pioneering and excellent. (Full disclosure: haven't played it so can't take a side but will be looking out for what BL88 plays in future because I like his jibcut,)
  18. BAFTAs in 'Give awards to games by companies who openly aspire to make games that emulate movies' shocker.
  19. SCHINDLER'S FIST I don't care if I'm late.
  20. On my shelves somewhere I have Hyper Street Fighter II, Vampire Chronicle for Matching Service and Hyper Street Fighter Alpha which are all Capcom doing the same thing with their respective series. Probably the most important thing we can take from those are that they were the final, nothing left on the table iterations. In other words I can now feel safe buying a SF4 game.
  21. They're going to run Sumo Hall again in a few months. 'Genius' my arse.
