I'm having one of those lazy days where I'm eating a full Scottish breakfast for my dinner. What you guys eating?

A ready made Lasagne, it was horrible and delicious at the same time

Better have some Garlic bread at the ready!

One cheese, one chicken & bacon

Rumors of Virtua Fighter and Tekken. PC is quickly rivaling console gaming in terms of selection.

Now all we need is KILLER INSTINCT C'MON ALREADY MICRO$OFT

 

[Xiraiya]

I finally learned how to make my own avatars. Here are my fruit of my labor.

Why would use you waste your new found ability on pointless rubbish like that?

PLEASE MICROSOFT! PLEASE!

I haven't played a DW game since 4. Is the port good? If so I'll probably pick it up.

Jim Sterling liked it alot, most people on steam seem to like it, i heard it had some bugs and looked like shit but then again it is a DW game so it was never gonna look amazing.

If you want it it's on sale right now.

I'll pick it up Thursday. I don't expect sparkling graphics with a DW game. I just want to control Lu Bu while my back up is Lu Bu..and I have to go rescue Lu Bu.

The PC port? I think it's based on the PS3 version.

I haven't heard great things about it.

I'll wait and see how low the prices goes on it. It'll be one of the last games I buy if I buy it at all.

They're considering it apparently, from a business stand point it would be dumb to let it go to PC, but from the stand point of "I don't want to ever have to buy a fucking XBOX" Then yes, this is the best idea they could have had.

Fixed.
Because there is more than fighting games out there.

I think most missions involving lubu is either running from him or killing him.

 

[Tako]

I'm sorry

 

[Squishy3]

The PC port of 8 runs fine, it just has awful button config and for some reason the PC version doesn't have online coop.

Seriously though, fuck DW8's button config on PC.

I also don't think it's a very good Warriors game.

 

[Xiraiya]

I'm sorry

It's okay.

Yes and those games are already on PC

Dynasty Warriors did never look good, it was always the gameplay that was the selling point.

That reminds me, I still have to play Hyrule Warriors. Fantasy Life came in the way, so I kinda forgot about it.

 

[CthulhuSushi]

If I kill him do I get a reward?

I keep seeing that it's useless without a controller..luckily I have a 360 controller <.<

 

[GuardianE]

Well, that was the topic at hand. The same goes for almost any other genre, though, as the PC is a steadily growing and lucrative market that developers/publishers can no longer afford to ignore.

Every video game is just a fighting game in the end. You're either a fighting game or you're flower.

 

[demidar]

Maybe, just maybe, it's because he likes it.

Even the smallest spark of interest is very powerful.

A lot of artists got good by drawing porn, for one reason or another.

 

[mike0dude]

If I kill him do I get a reward?

You get a bonus but in most cases fighting him gets you killed cause his stats are ridiculous in missions where the objective isn't to kill him.
Unless it's a character that you already leveled up alot, it's not impossible to pull off tho the AI is quite stupid in these games.

 

[Banana Aeon]

Hey, in Flower, you're fighting the ugly grass.

 

[skLaFarebear]

Hey, in Flower, you're fighting the ugly grass.

I've been proven wrong. Everything is fighting games. If you're not a fighting game, then you're basically not even a video game.

Like Smash.

 

[DoktorEvil]

Well, that was the topic at hand. The same goes for almost any other genre, though, as the PC is a steadily growing market that developers can no longer ignore.

I'm curious why fighting game devs now find the PC acceptable and not during the early PSX era, where arcade quality ports were slowly dripping to the mass market. SNES had MK, SF2, and KI. I can't recall KOF going there.

I remember Neo-Geo being the definitive console for arcade fighters, but that console tax was woof.

To be fair PC gaming wasn't anything like it is now in the PSX era. A lot of games didn't get ported back then, we didn't even have Steam

 

[mike0dude]

seems like theres No new video yet.

PCs were expensive, and not very welcoming for anything that wasn't a FPS or Hack n' Slash.

Now PCs are cheaper than ever, easy as hell to develop for, there are plenty of ways to distribute your games, and the demand is there.

 

[skLaFarebear]

Sweet. My smash GC controller adapter came in the mail. Now I don't have to worry about extra controllers when I have friends over

Spoiler

or I can sell it for 80 dollars >

 

[DoktorEvil]

I remember how big of a deal it was when games like FF7 or MGS were ported to PC.

Because of Steam. Steam has shown that the PC market isn't just a terrifying pirate-ridden wasteland where you'll get swindled out of your work.

Gaming as a whole has become more commonplace, and genre interest has expanded to new audiences. PC gaming was pretty insular during the 90s.

Also controller compatibility. This is a big one. With the 360 controller near universal compatibility, it paved the way for a lot of games on PC that you would be forced to otherwise use a KB+M for.

I remember how big of a deal it was when games like FF7 or MGS were ported to PC.

And they were half-assed, clunky, and licensed to monkeys for porting.

 

[mike0dude]

I wonder if the best friends are recording the Podcast right now.

It does force you to learn strong anatomy and shading after all.

 

[croten]

Yeah now pretty much every game, baring exclusives or a few Japanese ones, gets ported

And they were half-assed, clunky, and licensed to monkeys for porting.

This too

Ah yes. Fighting Lubu with a created low level character in DW4..the original Dark Souls.

 

[skLaFarebear]

I wonder if the best friends are recording the Podcast right now.

Well Pat was just here like 20 minutes ago, so I doubt they're doing it right now.

 

[GuardianE]

Fuck. My tracking says that Xrd will arrive on the 27th.

Thanks, Obama.

 

[mike0dude]

he could be using his phone...

 

[Phantasmal Repose]

Damn, that sucks.

 

[skLaFarebear]

I guess you're right. It just usually sounds like they record at night.

 

[demidar]

I imagine that's a big part of it.

The other being motivation.

Ah yes. Fighting Lubu with a created low level character in DW4..the original Dark Souls.

Gotta use cheap tactics all day everyday, because there's nothing worse than getting caught by a surprise musou attack and getting instagibbed..

I used to just cheese him with his Red Hare. Just knock him off then just speed past him and spend about 30 minutes doing that until he dies.

Did not consider this. You can now sync Arcade sticks with PCs, correct?

Some arcade sticks yes

 

[demidar]

Yep, sounds about right. And if you accidentally get hit you spend several minutes scurrying around the map for some health.

 

[DoktorEvil]

Some arcade sticks yes

I think I want to try making my own PC just for Steam gaming. It sounds like I'll be saving significantly long term If I build a tower vs buying a PS4 and hoping for the best.

 

[GuardianE]

Did not consider this. You can now sync Arcade sticks with PCs, correct?

Any arcade stick with PC drivers, including any 360 compatible one. Most PS3/PS4 compatible ones, too.

 

[mike0dude]

I guess you're right. It just usually sounds like they record at night.

I think they record around Noon or early in the afternoon, because Woolie called me around that time once just before they started recording.

 

[CthulhuSushi]

Yep, sounds about right. And if you accidentally get hit you spend several minutes scurrying around the map for some health.

You don't know true fear until you feel Lu Bu coming ever closer as you look for a Meat Bun that is mysteriously placed in a pot.

I wait till he gets off his horse and just steal it then run around the Map for a few minutes taking passes at him now and then.

The cowards way is the one true way.
