New VVVVVV levels are masochistic
-
The original story was masochistic for me, FFS.
-
It is remarkable how badly the new levels fail to capture what made VVVVVV's level design so great; every one of the new levels feature mis-steps such as frustrating runs from the checkpoint to the area where you died.
-
I agree Johnny. The checkpointing is entirely inconsistent in stark contrast to VVVVVV.

well this looks promising http://beta.indievania.com/

Call me crazy but I would have sworn there was another new indie service that opened up recently.

Aspiring games writers... http://twitter.com/#!/DeltaGamer/status/99633073234247680

It's a little awkward when you try to give away copies of games that you don't give great review scores to.

http://deltagamer.com/12004/pirates-of-black-cove-review It's not terrible, worth a few hours of play at least.

Saw the new Harry Potter finally. Despite some issues (see below), I enjoyed it. Other than that it was well-done and powerful.

I didn't say they did need a show to be successful. But sometimes I don't hear about a book series until it's got a TV show or movie deal; that's just the way it is. Books get some sort of buzz going themselves a lot of the time, sure. But a movie or show is going to push it into the mainstream, and if I haven't heard of the series before, and I've got solid recommendations, I'll check it out. There's nothing wrong with that. I didn't get all up in arms over my friends getting into Lord of the Rings once the movie came out, even though I read them before the film deal went down. I thought it was awesome that those great books would get even more exposure. I can pop this out into a new discussion since it seems we're off track.
-
Or maybe we don't really know much about the series until it gets picked up and gets some buzz going, so we decide to check it out upon the hearty recommendation of many people on these boards and elsewhere. Bookstores are dying because their prices are usually terrible; also, e-books.
-
Boarding the bandwagon. Also need to clean my fingernails D:
-
Wow. Could not disagree more. Borderlands was a total mess. I loved it in spite of itself rather than because of itself.
-
Interviewed Desura guys. Interesting read IMO - http://deltagamer.com/12143/interview-desuras-dave-traeger-talks-digital-distribution

I give you STALKER on Desurea: http://www.desura.com/games/stalker/downloads Wallpapers ¬_¬
-
Yeah. They are struggling to get bigger publishers on.
-
But bigger publishers don't matter much for mods though. They said they're struggling to get people over from ModDB but when ModDB has things like STALKER Complete and Desura has wallpapers I can kinda see why.

I'm on word 150 of a pirate game review and I've already used 3 pirate puns. Somebody make me walk the plank!

Rated: Arr!
-
It's a game about pirates. I did not pirate it
-
A pirate game? Did you plunder the booty? Was it a Land Ho? (See how I used CAPSIZE in "Land Ho"?)
-
Not only that, but online-only--no offline mode whatsoever. No net, no play. And mods are expressly prohibited. All I can say is that if you can't see that this all has to do with DRM, regardless of Blizzard's original intention, you're fooling yourself. Edit: Just saw Dean mentioned this all yesterday. My point still stands.
-
I've purchased two copies of the Humble Indie Bundle. Might pick another one up for myself soon. Next retail game I'm even close to considering is Deus Ex.
-
Steel Storm has been added to Humble Indie Bundle. We've got a review up on PXOD too.
-
Awesome. Congrats, Miodrag.

94/100 by PC Gamer - http://www.pcgamer.com/2011/07/29/deus-ex-human-revolution-review-scores-94-and-an-editors-choice-award-in-pc-gamer/
-
Man, I am the exact opposite. I cannot hang with a phone game for any longer than an hour or so before I start to go insane over the flimsy mechanics and shoddy controls. Dedicated system all the way for me, until they figure out a way to combine the two without losing the integrity of the gaming experience.
-
It's too bad you can't put "frontpaged on Reddit" on a CV/resume.
-
Imagine how many people would if it was allowed.
-
What law says you can't? It'd be relevant for lots of jobs. But also may seem kinda like reaching, unless it's "frontpaged on reddit a thousand times!"
-
Yeah, maybe don't put it under a "Qualifications" title, but something like "relevant experience(s)" or something like that. Under a less formal heading almost anything can go, as long as it's true. They would probably ask you about it in an interview.

I think the PS Vita probably had the biggest hand in making this happen. If Vita were $399 and 3DS were $249, I think Nintendo would be in a lot better shape, but the matching price point means they lost all advantage. Honestly at $169 I'll probably pick one up by the holidays. Hopefully Nintendo will be around long enough to keep putting games out on the system for me. Heck, just stick around long enough for Smash Bros 3D and I'll be good.

What are you listening to now?
