    Super Smash Bros Wishlist!

    Ooh yes! Megaman X, Zero, Viewtiful Joe (I mean, that should be easy!), Leon Kennedy, Crono from Chrono Trigger, the killer7 (any of them, or switch between several like Pokemon Trainer), just so many options here... Also I was thinking with Megaman his smash move could be using one of the...

    Poll: So Escapists, Lord of the Rings or Star Wars, which do you prefer?

    In terms of pure cultural and cinema influence, few can hold a candle to Star Wars. Lord of the Rings, however, for special effects, is a phenomenon. I'm not a huge fan of either of them. But I'd rather watch Star Wars.

    Your favorite console of all time?

    Are you allowed to choose PS2 baring in mind it is backwards compatible? I say that the backwards compatible consoles have a real advantage. But even PS2 library alone, PS2 still pretty much wins. The only crap thing I've found is that in most cases the Gamecube versions/ports are slightly...

    Poll: Music, do you game with it playing?

    There are certain games mainly in the stealth genre where you really need to listen to the in-game sound. But if I've gotten familiar with a game or I've heard enough of the soundtrack, then yeah sure.

    Did you get any HD Collections?

    I got Metal Gear Solid HD Collection, which almost ALMOST met my expectations, but unfortunately MGS3 was missing too much from the original. I was considering Silent Hill, but all I heard was shit, so I got SH2 on PS2. I'd probably get Shadow of the Colossus/Ico when I get the chance...

    Have you ever played through a game and completely missed a game play feature?

    As for me, well I had no idea you could choke people from behind on Metal Gear Solid 1, which could have saved me a lot of effort. As for MGS2, don't even go there, I was young and might as well been playing it with only the left analog stick. I missed every gameplay feature that was non...

    How has your gaming taste changed with age?

    I grew up with PS2 and for me that was the ONLY console that existed. I played games intended for young people, I played whatever was thrown at me, never did I check on the internet or anything if it was any good. I hammered games like Ratchet and Clank 2 and Simpsons Hit and Run, and many...

    Poll: Music Test (For an assignment)

    I think there are fair amount of people who have no preference over up or down tempo, but I could be very wrong. I like classic hard rock and metal like Led Zep and Hendrix and so on but I also like more ambient or paced music such as Floyd and the very early blues. Then I also like...

    Just finished Killer7, blew my mind

    Oh, I put it in the most vague terms, there's a lot more too it, but well and truly, the story is insane but brilliant. You can easily look up 'Hand in Killer7' on the internet, which is an English translation of a Japanese killer7 plot and character guide. It's quite long, though, but if you...

    Just finished Killer7, blew my mind

    Since my completion a few months ago, I've visited several (very long) story analysis and whatnot, and the plot is indeed...deep. Basically, Emir is literally just a guy. Then, at some point, he gets spiritually resurrected/awakened by Kun Lan after an incident where he kills some people at...

    Looking for good games I missed out on

    Killer7, for goodness sake, get Killer7... And word of advice, Gamecube version is better than the PS2 version!

    Favorite RPG combat.

    Speaking from the point of view of someone who hasn't played a lot of TBB at all, Chrono Trigger, because it just rocks.

    Worst review ever?

    Nowadays, the big review sites are willing to spew any shit to avoid uproar from fanboys. Any COD game, or damn, any straight up typical war-based FPS nowadays with no decent story, no likeable characters and repetitive gameplay are practically given a knighthood because these reviewers know...
