  1. Have they said whether or not Leonard Nimoy is coming back this season? I know he has "retired",
  2. I never been a big Smash Bros fan, I played it when I was a kid on the N64 at friends houses, but besides that it never clicked with me. Never saw the appeal in Brawl or Melee. However, this looks kind of cool. Who wouldn't want to shoot Kratos as Nathan Drake? And honestly while Nintendo has some old favorites like Mario, Link, and Samus, Sony has continually been developing new characters since the PSOne days, so they should have quite the library of relevant characters. Not to mention 3rd party oppurtunities like Cloud, Snake, Lightning, maybe even someone like Ezio.
  3. PlayStation All Stars Battle Royal sure looks familiar.... not saying, just saying.

      They may have been released at the same time, but as memory serves the Sixaxis was unveiled suspiciously after the Nintendo Wii, making it seem like a reaction to the Wiimote.

       

      Whether it actually was in response to Nintendo's controller or not, we can not be certain.

      Yeah, it did seem kinda suspicious at the time, though whose to say what was behind the decision. The ironic thing is that the Sony device that seems like the most blatant ripoff (Move) is actually the one that was in development well before any Wii announcement.

      I wrote "whose to say". That's how I roll sometimes.

  4. Season 5 of Fringe? Oh hell yeah, son.

  5. On further thought, there was a couple times in each Uncharted games where it bugged me... specifically, the Shipyard and the Ballroom in UC3. One of the early jungle stages, I think it's where they introduce grenades in UC2 had wave after wave. But honestly, EVERY area is like that in GoW so far.
  6. I've been playing the first God of War, since my girlfriend got me all three for me on my birthday..... two years ago.... Honestly, I'm not overly impressed. I'll walk into an area, spend a few minutes clearing out bad guys, and when I'm ready to move on, tough luck, there's another wave (or two of three) of enemies just like the ones I just bought. For some reason I don't mind this in Uncharted, but in God of War, it's just kind of mind numbing.
  7. Yeah I saw the Kotaku article earlier today. I haven't played either Portal (I know, I know!!) yet.
  8. That was an unusually good episode of Fringe last night. Though the identity of the girl was pretty obvious. That was a good casting decision though
  9. What's that from?? Finished season 2 of Torchwood last night. A much better season, though I'm surprised the whole thing with Owen didn't go anywhere.
  10. Alright fellas, I purchased DA:O 360 when it came out (actually, might have got it for Christmas...)... was sort of enjoying it, but I got to a point where there's a tower and I was a mouse or something, got fed up and quit. But lately, my experience with RPG's has increased, and I think I might actually really like it now. So should I pick up the "Ultimate" version on PS3? (Basically I'm looking to be talked into this, so tell me what you liked about it).
  11. Trophy Tip for PS+ Subsribers: Frogger Returns is free. You get a silver for beating the first stage, and a gold for each of the next three. Also: You can get the trophies in freeplay mode.

      I have 6! Working on my 7th!

       

      He has platinums for rockband too. I mean, I imagine you'd have to sing and play all the instruments for that.

      Assuming the Rock Band trophies are the same as the 360 achievements, that's fucking ridiculous. I've played the shit out of those games and I think the most achievements I have in one is like 250/1000.

    4. Strangelove

      Strangelove

      Yeah, ALL the Rock Band games are tough. Ive played RB2 endlessly and I probably only have like 30% of them. Some of those achievements/trophies are just ridiculous.

       

      The Sly Collection is supposed to have some easy platinums. 3 of them.

    Wii U

    Nintendo does not learn from their mistakes, (and definitely doesn't learn from their competitors mistakes) which doesn't make me entirely sure they'll have a Mario game at launch. They'll probably have Face Raiders Wii U as built in software again, and expect that to hold us for 6 months.
  13. Oh right, I always forget about the Summer Olympics. Hey! The Doctor's going to be a torchbearer though!

    Wii U

    Apparently it's that "New Super Mario Bros Mii" we saw at E3. A little disappointing, I was hoping they'd do something different with the art style. But if that's true, the game should be close to being done, since a lot of the frame work would be done.
  15. She's much prettier than that picture of her in front of the TARDIS would indicate. I was really hoping for a Canadian/American companion, since that seems to be the direction the show is taking. Hmph. Maybe they're saving that card for the 12th Doctor? Personally, since the CBC has helped fund Doctor Who many times over the years, I think it's time for some Canadiana in the Whoniverse. Also, I might have asked this but I don't remember getting a response. Why is the 7th season starting so much later than usual?
  16. I didn't even know Pandora's Tower was getting a UK released. How is it?

    Wii U

    A Mario game on a Nintendo console is a no-brainer, but if they were smart (which, often they aren't), they'd release it at launch.
  18. I believe so. They did give it the subtitle The Queen of White Sacred Ash (I think?).
  19. True. What the fuck is this? The 1990s????
  20. Games like this are probably best to not come out during the holiday season. Early 2013 would be a good time as it should be able to get some more attention.
  21. Not that I'm aware of. Which is one of the reasons I think it'll probably end up a retail game. And I'll end up buying it, first day, like a chump.
  22. http://kotaku.com/5901823/nintendo-registers-super-mario-4-domain-name-hinting-at-future-game Wasn't Super Mario World actually Super Mario Bros 4? Regardless, I can't say no to more Mario sidescrolling. Could be a good DOWNLOADABLE launch game for the Wii U ;)

      Yeah bro they won't. I was mostly being cheeky during this status update. I'm a cheeky douchebag like that.

      I mean, they should, but it's Nintendo and they don't do what normal gaming developers/publishers do.

    4. TCP

      But I guess, on the other hand, they're really the only developer that could get away with doing something like that, so, hey, good for them.

  23. No, but a sequel/successor that Miyomoto was talking about, sounded like it'd be SNES graphics, like other sequels (think Megaman 9 and 10, Final Fantasy IV The After Years, etc). Furthermore, we're pushing this topic way off course. All I was saying, is that I feel a SNES style game should be a downloadable game in 2012, if you disagree THAT'S FINE, I don't care, stop talking about it. If you can't understand why I, as a consumer, don't want to spend the full retail price for a game that could have been produced in 1992, that's cool. As I've said, countless times before, developers/publishers should charge whatever they feel will create the most profit for them. I was just pointing out that in the past, games being developed on the lower end of things, are released cheaper than retail games, and when the industry has had an increase in development costs (moving from one platform to a more advanced one) then retail games also increased in price. I don't understand why my hope for a downloadable release is apparently a bigger issue to some of you than a new Zelda game.
  24. Ethan..... no one is saying the visuals should be factor. We're talking about development costs. So yes, I'm saying in 2012, a game with SNES graphics, should be a downloadable game. But I am not saying it's because of the graphics, I'm saying that because the development costs would be SIGNIFICANTLY lower than Uncharted 3, Skyrim, Skyward Sword, etc. TFG: that link just geos back to the IGN page.
