And then the last one.
(I know he's trying to do a more serious review, but I miss the abridged sketch redub comedy)

>>196716
He does still do little snippets of that sort of comedy:
//youtube.com/watch?v=UrFtlpHsgps

He mentioned in a GAF thread that he wanted to move away from the redubs because they were typecasting him as more of a bitter cynical contrarian than he actually was, and he wanted some licence to be genuinely enthused in childlike wonderment at certain gaming things. Not a bad sentiment in this Youtube Personality age, I'd argue.

>>196732
Agreed. The title and premise sound bland as fuck but it's cool seeing people get mindfucked by the whole thing.

This is the Let's Play I've been waiting for.

Also, season pass my ass, it's just another way for 2k to say "another DLC bundle".

>>196348
Well this is a game like Destiny that was built up as a DLC sinkhole. Such a shame really.

>>196392
I wonder if there's the option to create custom sprites or edit it so that certain objects have different properties than they usually have, like a fireflower granting invincibility like stars do. Granted this has a high risk for trolling, but it could lead to some really creative stage remixes.

YOU CAN'T POSSIBLY GET ANY MORE FABULOUS THAN THIS

Hmm, I've been meaning to get Hyrule Warriors for awhile now, but I'm unsure if I should get the Wii U version or the 3DS version...

Speaking of the new Fire Emblem, you know those Severa and Inigo clones shown a while back? Turns out they literally are those two, also the slutty blonde dark mage guy is actually Owain.

New thread when?

yay...

>>196114
can't wait for that shit site and the rest of gawkers ilk to die thanks to based Hogans lawsuit.

>>196111
so PR gags are "glitches" now

two-faced cowards, they know what they did but don't want to be judged for it

>>195120
So how much of what that chart says is actually true? Regarding number of modes, maps, etc.

And has there been any word on split-screen local multiplayer?

Is Shadowrun: Dragonfall - Director's Cut any good? I've already got Shadowrun Returns but I haven't played it (Steam libraries, maaan) and it's a little over £3 in the sales for the next few days.

And unlike other shittier crowd funded vidya, there is a playable alpha build you can try.

Don't forget that so many things went bad with people leaking the worldwide release of Pokemon everywhere, they decided that we don't deserve to have that.

>I really don't care about shooters on consoles,
I don't care about shooters *at all*, and I can say that Splatoon is incredibly fun even so. I got it as part of the packaged-in Wii U bundle thing, so I figured I would give it a try, and it's tons of fun. It's not really like a standard shooter since you're not trying to kill opponents, and that makes a big difference in how the thing plays and feels. It's less about twitch reflexes and more about strategy.

Well, those who were against the idea of paid mods can smile:

Well thats a whole jimquisition episode wasted.

>>194288
Yea a format was better than their myriad of Storage Media they attempted in the run up to MP3 Device Standardization and their replacement by phones and tablets.

And really that kinda game is fine when its new to market and their competitor hasn't been out there for over twenty years with successful handhelds. Really if the VITA had used standard MicroSD Memory Cards . It would have been a much harder choice between the two handhelds.

>>194288
They used CDs and DVDs with the first two Playstations, though. And for something they wanted to push, UMDs and Vita cards aren't even used with other Sony devices.

>>194292
That just means they hadn't developed a "reasonable" competitor to CDs/DVDs at the time. Also, part of their reason for supporting DVDs was that it made the PS2 one of the cheapest DVD players on the market at release and so helped to sell a lot more.

Crap

>>194285
Is this real or is Polygon really that inane (not that I'd doubt the latter).

>>194285
>>194499
Hmm, as I thought it's a shoop. Title is cribbed from the Bayonetta 2 review and such and such. Not that Polygon doesn't have serious issues with self-righteousness, and their Xenoblade 3D review is pretty meh, suffers from blog-level tone and I'm already spotting a few outright errors in it.

Man, the Midgar parts of FF7 were so fucking cool. So fucking cool. I just remembered those out of the blue. I don't know why.

>>194002
I know, right? Like, the game opening up was awesome and all, but those first few hours in magic-cyberpunk-ville got me hype as fuck.

>>194002

I found it pretty dull and tedious, but I played it long after it first came out.
