The "OMG Samus is a chick?" factor is what it a great ending too.

EDIT: That sprite was from Super Metroid, n00b. ;)

yep

definitely

i ran out of coffee yesterday cut my old ass some slack :finger: hehehe

as for sega they were a solid developer but they made some fatal errors with the dreamcast. forcing an early launch for a marketing gimmick 9/9/99, with very bad launch titles killed them. soul calibur was and still is amazing though, none of the sequels have grabbed me like the original. hell had they just launched with that single title the system might have survived. complaints of short buggy games following launch killed whatever buzz their marketing efforts had created.

2 games that anyone who has access to a dreamcast MUST play - bangai-O and ikaruga.

Thank fuck being a gamer is'nt one of my addictions too ;). I have got enough to gripe about but great thread though.

The only games I have (had) interest in were:

Crash Bandicoot (the three psone games are killer)
Metal Gear Solid
Mario Kart Double Dash
Medievil (hard bitch that was)
Tekken 3 and 4.

92: People who won't shut the f*ck up about the decline of the Sonic series and Sega in general

I made all the right points, you can all shut the hell up now, seriously. Every time Sonic or Sega is mentioned some dork has to say they suck and talk about how superior Nintendo is, I'm f*cking tired of hearing it. Sega has made many many great games and yet all people have to talk about is how Sega is doomed (they're not doomed, Atari survived the crash AND the Jaguar for god's sake) and how they haven't made a good game in 10 years, which isn't actually true, of course.

Sega haters tend to consist of mindless Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft fanboys, and ohh boy, this is not gonna be the last time I bring those assh*les up.

Boo Boo have you ever played Resident Evil 4? It's pretty recent and if you haven't played it you should definitly check it out.

boo boo 09-13-2008 06:19 PM

I haven't played it. :(

91: Movie tie in games and the fact that most licensed games suck

If this was in any kind of order this would be a hell of a lot f*cking higher.

Now we all know license games tend to suck, but movie tie ins in particular, the reason they suck so much is because they are set to be released at the same time the movie they're cashing in on is still showing in theaters, so very little time is spent in developing the game, this is why they tend to be so short, they are rushed like crazy and quality is insignificant. Good license games are very rare (Batman and Ducktales for the NES and most of the TMNT games, off the top of my head) and sometimes in the hands of the right developer they can be promising. But most of the time they just let Activision or THQ squeeze out another turd and put a price tag on it like they have been doing for years.

Sadly license games sell very well no matter how bad they are. Why? Stupid ass kids, that's why. Like my little brother, if it has Naruto in it, it's guaranteed to be a good game as far as he's concerned, he has a Gamecube and a Wii but pretty much every game he has is a license game. That pisses me off, what a waste of hardware. I bought him Melee just so he had at least one good game.

I'm ashamed to admit that I own a fair amount of licensed crap in my SNES and Genesis libraries, because I too was a gulible little kid who focused on games that had familiar characters and settings, instead of looking for something original.

Now bad movies and tv shows are of course, gonna make bad games, it's when premises that SHOULD make awesome games end up sucking the big one that really hurts. Superman, Star Trek, Indiana Jones, Rambo, Back to the Future, Ghostbusters, great licenses that were neglected for the almighty dollar and thus have resulted in some of the worst video game tragedies of all time.

You know something's wrong when 7up makes a game starring their mascot "cool spot" and it actually turns out to be pretty good, yet they still can't make a decent Superman game. :laughing:

^I have that game for the Atari.

I happen to have TMNT for the Wii, and I personally think it's a very good game. It's a very fun platformer.

Piss Me Off 09-13-2008 06:36 PM

It's a bitch but that's what sells. I've been known to swallow up any Star Wars game, to be fair there's a fair few good SW games (not Bounty Hunter, that was horrific).
