What are you playing?

Cybernator, for the SNES.



The music in this game (sample set and style) is damn near replicate of Brainlord. That's a beautiful thing.

EDIT: THIS GAME IS REALLY HARD GUYS.

[EvilM00s]

I must have this game, if only for the Brainlord-y music.

(Because i REALLY loveded Brainlord and played it through something like a dozen times. I am a geek.)

Played through Bioshock Infinite for the second time, and genuinely feel that it's one of the best games I've ever played in my entire life.

I don't know why I don't remember beating it the first time. It's like I wasn't paying attention or something. Or maybe I just didn't understand, or try hard enough to wrap my head around it. This time, I damn near cried. Because this time it all made sense, finally. All the random lines from other characters throughout the game, especially in the beginning ("he DOESN'T row"). Even the popular song choices have significance to the story.

This is what I love about To The Moon, for anyone who hasn't played it yet. The game doesn't flat-out tell you what's so profound about the plot; it just gives you all the pieces and when you eventually put them together, it's a revelation that's staggeringly intense.

Windwaker HD is hot.

After beating Bioshock Infinite, I went on to beat Bioshock again. It's amazing how I more or less knew the twist of the game, but this time I still discovered something I hadn't noticed before.

[spoiler]I got how the protagonist is a slave and all that, and the whole fabricated memories part, but for some reason I didn't at all remember the part where the protagonist is actually only, like, 3 years old or something, and he's some kind of genetic Adam freak. Completely forgot about that. So that's why all the enemies call him "monster."[/spoiler]

I'm moving on to Bioshock 2, now, which I actually never finished.

Another great game. Plays like Cybernator (same engine) with a lot more polish. The game is beautiful, and they even find ways to render things like the sun beaming through the spaces between skyscrapers, and snow clouding off of surfaces in a blizzard. The music reminds me of Final Fantasy with a more techno edge to it- likely because Nobuo Uematsu had a hand in a lot of it.

Finally beat Gun Hazard. That game is ... fucking long. But worth playing for sure. A shame it seems like it will never have a sequel, though. So now I'm playing Front Mission: Original Flavor!

[EvilM00s]

I just picked up a game for xbox called The First Templar. Never heard of it before, but it's 2 player. Me lady and I are gonna give it a try. I'll letcha know.

Oh and I bought Assassin's Creed 3 as well.

EDIT: The First Templar is horse shit.

Metroid Prime 2 > Metroid Prime. If you disagree, you don't have a soul.

[Sophist]

Oh my god yes. I loved the first one, but the second was a whole new experience.

edit: also, what are you using to emulate this?

[Moss.]

Dolphin 4.0. MP1 and 2 run very well for me. There's some micro-stuttering in the super-busy areas, but it's still more than playable.

I think I read somewhere that emulating GC and Wii games is actually more CPU heavy than anything.

Playing a new game, called Firefall. Not too bad, but it's yet another FPS in a few aspects. It can be either a p2w or not, depending how quick you want to get things or not. I personally like the open battleframe switching idea, which basically lets you change your "class" at any point.

[Moss.]

Hey, I know the guy that did the music for that! Mike Bross. He's an alumni at the college I went to. He even teaches a class on VG music periodically (which I managed to catch one of).

Fable III with me lady. It's a two player game, we didn't know that! Anyway, good times.

Also playing "Mind-Numbing 72 Hour Work Week."

Oh! I love that one! (insert extreme sarcasm) I've been doing that one the past three weeks!!

Trying to get Metroid Prime 3 working on my PC, with keyboard and mouse.

Having mixed results: control scheme I designed actually works incredibly well, but the game just will not sustain a playable frame rate.

Was playing The Stanley Parable with a group of friends last night, and we were laughing our heads off with how open the game is and how many times it kept changing on us as we played through, making the next person to play go "Wait, what the fuck? That wasn't there before!". My god, the adventure line...

[&&&&&&&&&&&&&]

Deus Ex: Human Revolution.

I'm enjoying it, but it's just making wish somebody would make System Shock 3.

Edit: Also now System Shock 2, because $3.36.

This is one of the best mods-turned-standalone I have seen.

Stanley Parable was fun for about 2 hours, and then there just wasn't any more of it.
