Your first post on the Escapist

Thread: Perfect Dark remake for XBLA

As far as most know, the PD remake will contain:
- Constant 60fps
- Full 1080p resolution
- Online Combat Simulator with up to four players

Now, as for the things I have heard as rumours:
- Goldeneye guns usable in Combat Simulator
- Online co-op and counter-op with anywhere from two to four people
- Tweaks, thanks to Rare Witch Project who tested it. This could mean that things such as the Slayer with the All Weapons cheat, the bots' inability to detonate Remote Mines or effectively use the Shotgun and the ability to complete dD: Defection in six seconds, among other things may be fixed. Don't quote me on any of that, though.

It has been delayed to early 2010, sadly. The latest it could be released is March 21st, 2010. As for its actual release, nothing has been confirmed yet. The likely file size would be around half a gig, and should cost 1200 MSP if it's anything like the Banjo XBLA releases.

It may be worthy to note that PD's original N64 release was also delayed, and look how good that turned out.

I also never got a proper "Welcome to the Escapist", but oh well. It's a small price to pay for being able to take part in such mature discussions on these boards.

A thread about previous generation games that needed sequels. I said Crimson Skies...

Holy shit that was in '08 and I haven't broken triple digits yet.

I was rather hyperbolic-ally expressing my distaste for Sheogorath.

 

[Kouen]

mine was during the MM Valve vs Zynga

Probably me going on about "We have to hold the line!" or something of that nature xD

Ah memories, that few days and topic was damn epic

And i stand by it

 

[Terramax]

Nobody noticed though.

Sorry, did you say something

Mine was 'characters not going in SSBB'. I nominated Jar Jar Binks.

My first post continues to be on the topic "Poll: Opposite gender (sex) clone - Would you?" it is as follows:

"First Post:

hmm... I doubt that I would like to sleep with myself (being the ugly bastard that I remain.) Killing myself seems a bit too harsh. I don't really care how this strange circumstance came about. So... I guess that I would charge her half the rent and we'd be the best roommates yet recorded.

Post Script: I think that I've seen this same scenario play out in the hentai comic: "Alice in Sexland" (or was it "Alice in Sexland Extreme"...) I believe that you fine lads can guess which option they chose."

Post Post Script: and it seems people have yet to welcome me to this esteemed website.

Mine was a thread on your fav FF character, I answered with "Cecil, I just loved that guy." and I still do

 

[ace_of_something]

I've no idea all I remember is that it was on an article where I agreed with the author. The first response I got was someone telling me I'm wrong and a newb. (Necroswanson if you remember him) and than he got a suspension for doing it in a very assholish way.

My first post was on a diabetes thread by Neonbob, talking about my diabetes care and amusing diabetes related incedent I once had

 

[Darth Caelum]

Well Actually, The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena was Pretty Good. Solid Gameplay, Controls that DO NOT suck, and violent moves specifically designed to make you feel like a TOTAL BADASS!!!! (Anyway, if anyone said this already Please Disregard everything i just Said.)

This basically. I was a bit more Conservative back then. I don't really mind it being my first post and was trying to avoid the Banhammer.
Video Game Movies that do NOT suck.
My first time.

Unfortunately, my first Quote was less happy. Went to the Religions and Politics Debate area and foolishly sent my bit and left.
Then i came back after.....4? 5 hours? I had a bunch of Quotes telling me how much of an Asshole i was, not defending my views, how i was a troll, etc.
I look back at that with.....pain. I felt DEVASTATED at it......stopped posting for a while too......

Ratholos from Monster Hunter
That was on the "what thing would ride into battle against 100 soliders"
A bit special too because I've been lurking on this website for 2 years.
EDIT: Also to be honest I was surprised I didnt get a welcoming considering it was an active thread.

 

[JokerCrowe]

Here it is:

I bought Uncharted 2 on tuesday this week, and I have to say I like it. I don't find Mr. Drake that annoying, and it still is a pretty damn good game. it won't change the world of gaming, but it's solid. sorry for the most un-funny comment yet.

It was the ZP on Uncharted 2 (apparently, I thought it was something different) and the date was the 12th of November 2009 at 1:01 pm.


EDIT: BTW, I'm still waiting for my welcoming party :'(
*sigh*
So many balloons and party hats for nothing...

Let me dig through my insane amount of posts and see.

Ah, there. Sure took a while, seeing as I have sooo many posts.

For me it's got to be collectables and unlockables (costumes, weapons, even artwork and such). Good, or at least fun gameplay is a given to keep us playing as well.

Multiplayer is definitely a huge part, and pretty much the only replay value in most major games today.

 

[Dedtoo]

a thread about realism.
I dont want realism in my games.

 

[Glademaster_v1legacy]

Well my posts don't extend back to my first post but I disticntly remember it being a comment on the De-Rez videos about how awesome they are.

Rejection hurts, but I feel it's a logical part of life. If you never get rejected, you wont know how it makes you feel in order to lower it's effects on you the next time it does happen. It's the same with a lot of other emotions and concepts, you need to experience them in order to grow stronger as an individual. In the kind of world in which we live in, it would be a very wise idea to learn it sooner rather then later.

Now, here's a ultra cute picture of a chocobo!

That was my first post.

That's a very good first post. Most people just wrote about their favourite games or something like that. Example:

currently completing COD 2 on easy as a relaxing break after several hardcore days on veteran

Not even a capital letter. I'm ashamed of me.
