Preordered and likely to arrive on my birthday! Cannot wait.
Gaslamp Killer is pretty meh, his debut was kind of a disappointment. Madlib, Jneiro Jarel, and J Dilla are the one's you should be recommending. Samiyam is another good one.
A lot of cookie cutters have accumulated around those guys^^^, Gaslamp Killer, Teebs, Tokimonsta, Thundercat, Shlohmo and so on.
Sick, but this probably means next to nothing to most gamers / people on N4g.
I'd definitely play it. Don't be turned off just because it's older, it's absolutely fantastic and to be honest there are aspects of it I prefer to VLC.
And yes, it is kind of important that you play it. Numerous bombshells will be lost on you otherwise. Lots of characters show up from it. Also there's a third game coming out which I'm sure will bring in other familiar characters and names.
Don't worry about being on top of all the...
I want to procure the master copy of this game and stomp it until it's a fine powder. Then I'll snort it, puke it up into a toilet, and flush it away.
Urgh, people have got to realise that stuff like this contributes to and forms preconceptions of the game that you carry to it when you play it. Then, when you're playing it, you force it to be shit (or, a "fail") in your mind- force it to confirm your preconceptions and received ideas about it. Part of it is just a weird form of peer pressure.
XIII and XIII-2 are both good games. They're radically different to previous Final Fantasy games, but they're F...
The dubstep RUINED it. I mean I know he made the dubstep joke, but the use of it at the end seemed in earnest.
I hope this isn't the beginning of another videogame trend getting run into the ground like the FPS before it. Just because Dark Souls was challenging doesn't mean that all subsequent "challenging games" have to take the form of a Dark Souls type game. Sometimes the games industry suffers from a severe lack of imagination / gets a little to enthusiastic about cashing in on trends. More games with unique visions need to be encouraged.
That said the concept o...
Sounds pretty clever to me. This guy needs to let go of cowboy myths.
The water and the clouds look amazing...
The colours in this game look a little washed out or monochromatic, sort of like GTA IV. Lots and lots of greys...
Also the main character looks like some kind of weird middle class sex offender.
Never got to play this since I only own a Ps3. Can't wait.
This is going to be superior to the original by miles with thechineseroom developing it. I can't wait to see how they handle a full narrative game with actual gameplay.
Bravo. *sniff*
The PSP was more novel when it released. Loads of people I know bought one when it came out just because it was a portable playstation and how intriguing that idea was. Out of all those people, I'm the only one I know who owns a Vita. People just don't care as much. I think it's down to smart phones and the previous lack of games on the PSP.
As for the 3ds not doing so well? Well I'd put that down to smartphones too. (As well the point about the WiiU below) <...
Honestly it just looks like Final Fantasy VII if it had been made by a bunch of amateurs. Nevertheless, this is more or less what I'd like a remake to be like, I'd imagine it'd obviously a lot better than this of course.
Oh jesus... what were they thinking? And how many other corners did they cut in this manner?
Well I appreciate your civility. I was dreading a bunch of fanboys foaming at the mouth awaited me when I saw the notification.
As for a comparable game: L.A. Noire. I honestly think it trumps Heavy Rain on every front.
But doesn't mean that all "experiments" should be like Heavy Rain. I just hope this doesn't encourage other developers to "experiment" and make loads of Heavy Rain type games. One of the most overrated games ever, and it's not even the gameplay that bothers me. Dreadful writing and voice work, hackneyed use of soundtrack, and overall really juvenile even though it wants to be "mature".
Well the graphics are all updated and there's a bunch of extra stuff in it I think...
