It is a sad truth universally acknowledged, that, while granting an experience nothing else can, good humuor is VERY hard to create. Harder, for example, than simply freshining up your graphics, when you're a major Game Developer. So it is not puzzling at all, that fewer and fewer games arrive...

Another thing is that one of his main improvements, Armor, doesn't work against grabs and most of the high tier characters have a good grabgame. They also buffed alot of projectiles compared to Melee/Brawl, which he has trouble dealing with and, again, alot of high tier characters have...

I think you have a wrong definition of censorship.

The only reason I'm not disappointed is because I haven't expexted ANYTHING from AAA for The last few years. The one Advantage of this attidude is that I don't feel disappointed by bad games anymore, but instead delighted by actually good games. There was, however, a down side. Realizing what...

So I just recently purchased Sherlock Holmes: Crimes and Punishment and, boy, have I never regret getting a game so much. I guess that's what I get for following a hunch and buying it after only one positive online review and liking the premise. I mean a game that makes you feel like being...

The gaming drought this year seems affect me harder than usual and I'm starting to get desperate for a good game, ANY game really. So I make this thread for you to post some of your favorite games, so that people like me might find an interesting game to play. It doesn't matter if they're...

"More AAA... hurray?" - Don't touch a AAA game in over two years "Grown out of it" - Be a fan of Kingdom hearts 1 at release, despise the series when Kingdom hearts 3 is announced. Alternative title: "13 years is just too long" "All good things have to end" - Realize your favourite...

The game itself doesn't matter, just talk about the HUD and why you like it most.

This is a bit of a borderline case but... So in MLP there's this one episode where Rainbow Dash, a sport obsessed pegasus, breaks her wings and has to spend the rest of the episode in the hospital. There, bound to the bed, she is introduced to the magic of reading and Io and behold, finds out...

To me, rpg elements mean mechanics typically found in rpgs. This includes things like leveling systems, character stats, the aforementioned randomized loot and experience points. Also, I want to point out, that I'm not trying to argue that rpg elements are inherently bad, that'd be silly...

The chainsaw is only available once you played through the game. It's a bonus weapon, meant to reward players for beating the game and I think that's partly what ruined SH2 for you.

....or the "least necessary rpg elements"-Thread Adding rpg elements to a game can benefit it immensely. Players can be constantly rewarded by bein given Experience points, which then can be used to buy good, meaningful upgrades, that enhance the gaming experience. This can add an additional...

This thread propably could have been named smarter(if you didn't want controversy/attention, that is). To me both of those type of games are cynical products of an industry that regards its customers with about the same respect as people on the internet talking about furries. It's just that...

Would games like Rust or DayZ count as 'mmo-like'? Because every time I try to think of what a mmo would be like without the things that bother me most(grinding, huge advantages for leveling, gigantic time commitment to compete), it basically goes into that direcction, only with more people.

The Thing is all these characters you mention aren't really that awesome or special. Sure they were good at the time, but any new game for them would be made for the same reason we currently have only Mario and Zelda games, cashing in on the nostalgia of people who grew up with those characters...
