Support NeoGAF

[Bowlie]

Guys, I created a Discord channel for GBGAF. If y'all don't know what Discord is, it tries to replace Skype, or chats used for gaming. It's very sleek, you can use it practically anywhere, the devs are constantly improving it and I'm seeing many communities creating their own thing there.

Only the coolest cats are there now, but
y'know
come chat with us too

Is it okay to dislike jeff? I don't even know who he really is and why he is on there...

It's ok if you're a crazy person.

Finally a place to talk about jojo

Why do we have to wait a day for DOAX video?

Censorship.

 

[Twin Tails]

also, between Ed Boon fucking trolling PC gamers with his esports announcement and Dave Lang's Killer Instinct being fucked on PCs, it's not been a good showing lately from chicago devs and giant bomb buddies

KI runs great.

Censorship.

Motherfuckers.

I am, in fact, pretty crazy.

I think bakalar is great, wish they could get him on more video stuff. He's a natural fit with the crew's humour and it's kinda lucky how it worked out with them working together.

 

[daydream]

wow, the gb-gaf steam group really exploded. last time i checked i was one of five people in there

I only started listening to the beastcast for like 5 episodes. Funny enough I mixed his voice up with Austin's at first. Maybe I warm up to him, who knows. Was he in video stuff recently? Maybe that would help.

Phantasmagoria 2.

KI runs great.

Yeah, runs like twice as fast as on Xbox.

unless you try running it at a refresh rate that isn't 60. Then, it's broken

He's lowkey the best part of the beastcast

 

[popo]

For a product owned by Facebook, the release of this thing looks borderline incompetent from the outside.

True, they could have thrown a bunch of money at the problem to insure it was all smooth but Facebook doesn't have an established pipeline for making or shipping physical hardware.

Agreed.

It's weird when worlds collide. I had been listening to Jeff Bakalar's CNET stuff way before GB was even a thing. Then I followed GB and now worlds have collided. Pretty awesome.

shit, part 1 of the oculus rift thing is 5 hours...this is going to take a while

That's not even halfway -- pretty sure the stream ended up running at something like 11:30 total.

Even if you don't like Bakalar - Alex and Vinny giving him shit is always hilarious.

you worked for this one, huh

like, REALLY tried to make it work

 

[Death Metalist]

Dan hating 300 is unexpected but appreciated.

300 is one of the better Zack Snyder films and it mostly works only for Butler's performance.

I haven't seen 300, or any Zack Snyder film for that matter.

Dawn of the dead remake, 300 and Watchmen are the only ones worthy for a watch. I guess that owl CGI movie is fine as well.

First off, i finished it late last night and went to bed like a cool guy would

second, i'm not alex

last, halo 4 is like the thingiest of things so, no, i will not take that back

Halo 4 is alright. Story wise it's better than 5 however that is to be expected since 5 is the middle chapter in this new trilogy. Never understood the hate for 4, apart from level designs still not being up to par with the original trilogy, it's still tons of fun to play.

I think the limited scope of the campaign hurts it compared to the other Halo games and the story took the series from hard scifi to more of a scifi fantasy.

I mean don't get me wrong, i still think it's a good game and even with its flaws I think it got shat on a bit too hard but, at the end, it left me wanting another bungie halo more than wanting another 343 halo.

if i were to give it a score, it would be a 4/5 game but only because i feel like the MP helps lift up a 3/5 campaign. And, mind you, since im coming to the MP now i don't have the baggage that folks carried when the MP first launched and it was some sort of weird COD thing

 

[Glitchesarecool]

I don't remember much about Sunshine anymore, but I remember being so disappointed by it. Probably my most disappointing game of all time.

You're fucking insane. How is that game disappointing, let alone the most disappointing game ever?

 

[Jintor]

dude

wat

 

[Bowlie]

it does work.

no, I applaud. Merit for effort.

 

[TheMrPliskin]

Are you trying to top Whippy when it comes to awful 'jokes'.

Opinions?

 

[shortsFortallPeople]

Are we back to shitting on Sunshine?

Because it deserves it, it's the worst main mario game by far

 

[ratcliffja]

I remember thinking Sunshine looking like a minor upgrade over Mario 64 visually, but looking back, it was a pretty huge advancement. It's still the second worst 3D Mario, though, and is only better than Galaxy 2. Now THAT was a disappointment.

 

[TheMrPliskin]

All of the 2D Mario games share the prized position of worst Mario game.

 

[Glitchesarecool]

Opinions?

With all the videogames I've seen and played, I just can't imagine that being someone's actual most disappointing game of all time. Shadow the Hedgehog (or any of the gamecube sonic games, really) take that cake handily.

(i've never played any mario game)

and glitches, I really like Shadow the Hedgehog. I played that shit constantly when it came out and would play it again.

 

[nckillthegrimace]

Do I sense anime talk in heyaaaaa?

I check emcee's post everyday to see if he edited "no anime" to be "double anime."

 

[Zaph]

(i've never played any mario game)

You're not missing out. How such a mundane series inspired this legacy is beyond me.

 

[Glitchesarecool]

and glitches, I really like Shadow the Hedgehog. I played that shit constantly when it came out and would play it again.

I think it's because its intro was so good (still remember all the lyrics), and Shadow was a cool character at the time, that it made it so much worse for me.

 

[Jintor]

contrary to popular belief, the japanese langauge is not in and of itself anime
