Damn that Thief review is really harsh, I'm quite enjoying it even if I can agree to some of his negatives. Maybe I just like stealing stuff and I do really like the atmosphere of it.

Yeah I also really enjoy it so far. But I also really like hiding in a corner for minutes to learn the path of the AI and then sneak by unnoticed, so maybe I'm just weird

Nope, not weird. It's why I loved the original Splinter Cell games - I'd treat it like a puzzle game and spend ages perfecting my route. The CIA level was so satisfying, it permanently changed the way I approach games.

If there's a lot of that in Thief, I might check it out.

I agree with Brad that a game pad is best for RE4. I will just use the mouse for the shooting gallery. But I dont think he knew he could just press Q to do the 180 turn instead of trying to hit Shift + S.

And he left the "Hey, its that dog" dog in the bear trap.

Yeah, I think it's an okay game. Technically a mess, but okay. It strikes me as something that if I had to play in large chunks (like to do a review of it) I'd probably dislike it more. As of now I just play a few side missions here, a main story mission there. I don't think I've sat down and played more than two hours.

You are my soul mate.
 
Just watched like half of Bombin' the A.M. to breakfast.
The whole "lol anime" act is like the lowest hanging unfunny fruit ever. Jeff and Vinny can make it hilarious, these guys can not.

I listened to Scoops and the Wolf and I don't get where they said anything bad about that game, they just said it was really crazy. #truthbullet

Still without luck
I just thought of something. Rorie plays the viola, Jeff plays the saxophone, Vinny plays guitar, Brad can sing like an angel...

GIANT BOMB BAND LET'S MAKE IT HAPPEN.

edit: and alex can drum and drew can back up dance. :eek:
 
I'd guess it'd be an adaptation thing. I mean, it cribs a lot of the really stylistic stuff from the game anyway, so... and I'd guess it'd be just time compressed. DR is, like, a 20-25 hour game (I think? I wasn't really keeping track).

Probably also helps that Danganronpa has a protagonist with a settled personality and
almost
no breaching paths.

Alexis has a fucking sweet bike.


Who is making the next thread, will there be a next thread?

I'm just irritated that apparently Japanese videogames still exist in their own little corner of weirdness which is entirely separate to Western weirdness, which is totally acceptable and not at all deserving of being yelled at.
