Wii was good. Not only-console-to-own material since it got mostly niche games, but I would have cried if I had to go PS3 only this gen. And ultimately DS owns both pretty hard.

SPM is fantastic and I'll lol forever at the hate it got from not being TTYD2. It wasn't negatively received, it didn't bomb, the hate comes from a very vocal internet minority it seems. And lol, Kangi, let's have a SPM themed wedding then.

If Nintendo's goals come to fruition, hopefully I will only have to buy a Wii U this next generation. That would be wonderful..
 
So despite being gay I realized today I hardly ever look at this thread. What discussions of the inner secrets of gaiety (and gayity) might it hold!

I click on the last page and find an ongoing discussion about Skyward Sword.

I think this is why I'm still on GAF after 12 years.






ps. Skyward Sword is great.

HI :)
 
Ugh, can we lay off the lame wii discussion or move it to the Gays play lame consoles thread?


I love you all but, please no. I avoid the gaming side, and sold my wii exactly for this reason. ;)
My love affair with Nintendo died with the end of the GameCube. The wiiU looks to be more of the same.
 
I avoid gaming side too, now bring me some guys :P

30+ please.

Now maybe I missed something, but I thought this was a game website, and as such, that sort of discussion belongs exactly here. I mean, why shouldn't it be ok? And we deserve to have a place to discuss game stuff with our own unique perspective, no? So I'll try to spin it maybe a little bit to a happy medium. What were people's first gay experience in a game? For me, I was stunned and happy to see a male-male kiss in Fragile Dreams: Farewell Ruins of the Moon for Wii (as part of the narrative, not a choose your own adventure thing like Mass Effect or Fable.) That was really cool!

Wow, hit a nerve apparently. Too bad you missed out on one of the best games of this generation, Xenoblade.

I'm all for more gaming talk. I got a Wii U in November and love it. If anyone wants to add me, my NINID is motorde.
 
:lol Seriously, though the Wii was a $250 paper-weight that's only justifiable series was Trauma Center/"Team" a series that started (and IMO, plays better) on the DS

No, I haven't played/bought Xenoblade yet. I can't be assed to hook up the Wii just for one game/RPG when I have others on PS3/handhelds to play

Wii U really isn't setting out to fix that with the Nintendo ID fiasco and online being complete ass. Call me when Nintendo actually starts to take online seriously, and maybe I'll give them the time of day. Otherwise they're the "Ace Attorney/Pokemon/Metroid" company for me and that's it.
 
I've been staying away from the gaming side because of the troll threads and constant bickering. Every thread feels derailed because of fanboys and it's a shame. I have my preferences but I own all consoles and handhelds, I wouldn't mind a little gaming conversation in here that was neutral without the bullshit.

The first gay experience? I think it was Leisure Suit Larry 6 and the stereotypical gay character Gary - the towel boy. However, the game also had some pretty sweet naked male asses later in the game ;)

Another proof that BioWare's 3D modelers suck. Somehow they get Shepard/Mark Vanderloo right even in the first game, and yet failed with everyone else (especially Miranda and Kaiden).

New console + many of the better posters, industry posters, and smarter posters have left GAF or are posting less. Until we lost the NPD sales data it was much better. After that it all started to get a bit messy with a very low level of discourse.
 
Really? I find it pretty okay
coming from GameFAQs

Nah I find it fine over there, just at a less interesting level. There was much more industry analysis threads, and more people who knew what they were talking about posted. So yeah, it's fine over there, but not a rewarding as it used to be.

A lot of industry folk still post on GAF, or at least I think they do; every second post on the gaming side reads like a PR release.
 
Carth sucks anyway.

God, fuck kaiden, I youtube'd carth and i don't wanna hear his VO ever again <_<

They did a great job at Liara and Samara I would say. Such a shame.

Also, if we're talking about gay characters I think Atlus did a great job at Kanji, a confused high school student who doesn't know who he wants.
 
My experience with Halo has never been good. Because I suck at non-shmup-shooters and I just tend to walk aimlessly until a friend head-shots me from behind, lol.
 
Halo has probably been my biggest gaming disappointment, along with the Wii.

I was expecting so much of this game, especially story-wise. I bought my first Xbox especially for it. While it was not a bad game, it was not at all what I hoped it would be.
Seeing that big ring go up all the way around was pretty cool, but I felt that the story was average and I didn't feel as compelled as in other games. I still played Halo 2 and 3, but never really enjoyed it. I think I wasn't able to get over the disappointment.

Wii was something similar. Couldn't bring myself to like the controls. They seemed gimmicky and annoying since the fatso in me prefers playing video games with the least movement possible. I did like SMG though.

But you know, to each their own. I'm glad some people love it.

I will admit the gaming side seems overly ugly to me right now. While part of it is generic console wars stuff, the fact that the first new console is Nintendo branded seems to have brought out an underswell of bitterness and hurt feelings related to the Wii that had died down for the last several years.

Kind of funny though how much damage losing NPD did. For all SalesAge was mocked by some, it did seem to have an effect on the ambient level of seriousness.

I'm the same way, always been rather horrible at FPSs having not really played much of them growing up, but its still fun to occasionally jump into a game of cod or halo with friends and dick around, even if I'm horrible.

The only shooter I've been moderately okay at has been Red Dead, but even then I stopped playing for too long and by the time I returned there was only top level players left (which meant swift death all over the place). Ah well.
 

I'm really looking forward to Seven Samurai, Once Upon a Time in the West and Scenes From a Marriage.

Nothing coming up that I'm dying to see. I really want to see Man of Steel though (I meant for this year, I don't know all that's coming up).

I still really have to see Les Mis, Django, Zero Dark Thirty, Lincoln, Holy Motors and many more.
