I had no idea there were so many versions of this. I only had the original, though I remember hearing that a later version of the game cut the Batman and Spiderman "cameos".

like it's crazy that someone thought that first version with Enemy characters resembling Rambo, The Terminator, Spider-Man, Batman, and Godzilla...Joe Musashi's face on the title sequence resembled that of actor Sonny Chiba dressed as his character Hattori Hanzō from the Japanese TV series Shadow Warriors wasn't going to catch the attention of about a million lawyers lol

like Kojima lifted stuff from Blade Runner and Terminator and even then he tried to not make it so obvious. the people making shinobi 2 didn't even bother and that's kinda great

Hahahaha! God bless the mods.

Was there a Star Wars game on either console? If there was, hopefully one can eventually be added and we can get even more Tim Allen

Hey fellas,

All of the stuff I recorded at PAX East has been edited and shoved on to you YouTube. The playlist is here:

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLdC3pP79J-A90diXUFDTK9t8lm_axQ_hH

To be more specific, here are two vids of games that I think could use a bit more attention:

Beat Cop - a PnC adventure game-of-sorts. Think of it like a streamlined PoliceQuest
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kMto04aflL4&index=5&list=PLdC3pP79J-A90diXUFDTK9t8lm_axQ_hH

Lastfight - Looks to be a capable PowerStone clone. Unfortunately, they don't have online multi just yet. But I haven't heard of this game at all until I saw it at the show floor, so take a gander:

Thanks for the bringing up Beat Cop.
 
i imagine they would have issues with ppl dbl/triple/quad dipping. I rather not spend more then 10 dollars for quad dipping on the same game....

It's not so much as purchasing the game again as it is more the game had a rocky launch with various bugs. Wasn't an awful port but it did put maybe half of the folks off. I believe most of the problems have been addressed.

The world was a less litigious place in general back then, the internet wasn't a thing yet, and videogames, though popular, weren't nearly as mainstream as they are today. I think that's why you could have people try to slip something like this under the radar and hope that it would go unnoticed for awhile. Nowadays, people would be posting about it on release day, half a dozen sites would pick up the story, and lawyers would be knocking on the door inside a week.

I miss the feature that told you when someone quoted you. That needs to come back.


There was a notification feature? I didn't even know. I just scroll through the pages looking for quotes in green to see if anyone replied to me. >.>

It was awhile back maybe in 2013? It was a test feature for maybe like a month.

New games like Hard West struggle to get sales enough (roughly the same 40k mark as Disgaea interestingly) and already have discounts just a few months after release, why would most people pay $20 for a 13 year old port of a game that has a ton of sequels already? I'd say 40k at $20 is pretty decent and it will certainly pick up as it gets more discounts.

how the fuck do I fix that disk write error bullshit, again?

I had it a while ago, but I got enough free space on the disk to update Dark Souls III but it doesnt let me

it goes up till a certain point and it just throws me a disk write error

driving me fucking nuts

People like to criticize certain missing features on various gaming platforms but unless it opened up access to an exploit, it's baffling that this feature was taken out from GAF. It was a very helpful one.

Sorry for this totally OT post, but today was a good day...

Finally found a new really nice apartment I move into next month

Opened this pack in Hearthstone


Just came home from the cinema, watched Civil War with a friend

The movie is OK but nothing special IMO, give me Guardians 2 Marvel!

And now I have pizza and beer...


Life can be good sometimes :)


Have some games to make this post more on topic...

oh hey guess what im reinstalling the entirety of Dark Souls III and Steam reallocated the space just fine without any disk write error

but when I tried to just install the update there was either no disk space or some writing error

fuck this shitty fucking shit. Hitman did the same exact thing

Oh. The Download folder is currently at 14gb now. You definitely need more than 10 for this.

Im reinstalling the whole thing and it's gonna work. It's not the first time this happened and it's some prime time bullshit

This doesn't surprise me, but every time you talk about issues with your computer it just sounds super unstable.

Reformat, remove your OC's on your GPU and CPU, run tests on your memory and storage, see if you can diagnose your issue.
I definitely got the impression your GPU over clock was messed up last time you mentioned issues, so start there.

I cleared more than that and nothing. it's fake space, some sort of preallocating bull that just suddenly started happening

This doesn't surprise me, but every time you talk about issues with your computer it just sounds super unstable.

I mean you keep bringing this up but every time I google shit I find a ton of people with the same issue

my PC is fine dude and the issues I have I find the problem (like the OC stuff yesterday). This is a Steam issue

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.

why would I check out my GPU OC for an issue with Steam updates that even Nabs is having lol

the OC thing is easy. I had an OC that was stable on benchmarks and games, but a game like Dark Souls III comes out that is both more demanding and doesnt have the best track record on ports and the card just got too hot. I put the clocks back to stock and it's fine. It's all done on an OS level.
