(sorry ink that must be the nerd genes in this thread)

Now that I beat d2, it's back to epic adventure classic

 

 


this game is way too brilliant for its own good. Made by the creator of one of the best games ever made, OUT OF THIS WORLD (aka ANOTHER WORLD).

noisereductions 12.16.2010 09:23 PM

Out Of This/Another World is amazing.
Flashback is good too.

shabbray2.0 12.17.2010 04:28 AM

I got both on the genesis, and I love them.
I remember their graphical style blew my mind back in the days. amazingly fluid animation and some kind of surreal (another world) setting.
really dug the cyberpunkish story of flashback.
unfortunately never played through another world!

Dude, are on the 360? Add me if you are. I'm krastian on there too.

Recently I've been going to town on my Kinect and playing:

 



 



 


We have a fuck load of DS games at work (I'm a librarian), so I bought a DSi XL and I have been playing this fucker:

 



Oh and D2 is one of the most craziest fucking games ever.

Damn, I'm really craving some Parasite Eve (PS1) right now...

shabbray2.0 12.20.2010 06:29 PM

Lemmings the Tribes
World of Illusion

I love turtles in time, and they are both pretty expansive on ebay here (between 20 and 30 euros). looking forward to hear the genny soundtrack!

I dont mind ultimate soccer and already got the lion king but anything else is pretty awesome especially for that ridiculous price. I am sure there is someone pretty mad bout an auction "gone wrong" hahaha

al, do you have TMNT for GBA? (The Ubisoft one that's actually called TMNT)? It's just like the Konami brawlers. Amazing sprite-work and a $ system similar to River City Ransom.

shabbray2.0 12.21.2010 10:10 AM

^^what a $ system?
sounds great I will have a look, for sure

kinn 12.23.2010 03:56 AM

is it worth getting a PSP or a DS and in that case which one? also do i really need to get a DS XL or is the normal size fine.

obviously without the touch pen thingie you cant play DS games on your computer but is it really worth paying for one and getting a Rcard?

EVOLghost 12.23.2010 05:27 AM

^ I'd get a DS over a PSP with an R card....I have a DS too...still waiting to order my R4.


there's just so much more games with the DS.

Dr. Eugene Felikson 12.23.2010 06:02 AM

I'd go with a DS, myself. Or better yet... hold out for the 3DS.

http://e3.nintendo.com/3ds/

http://nintendo3dsblog.com/

It's backwards compatible with the DS, and will probably fully overtake Nintendo's portable development plans within the next year. So, if you're looking for a new portable to keep up with the times, I wouldn't purchase a DS so close to the end of its developmental lifespan. I'd wait for the 3DS and maybe pick up a GBA SP (only $25 - $40 around here) to tie me over until then... but that's just me.


 

EVOLghost 12.23.2010 06:08 AM

hmmmm....I'd say you're right....but the 3ds is gonna be pretty expensive especially now that DSLites can be found for like 70 USD(like new!). and if NNik wants to get an R4 card then it'll cost him a little more since the DSi's use a different one and a R4 for the 3DS won't come out for another while.....

EVOLghost 12.23.2010 06:10 AM

oh yeh, and I heard Nintendo is also making the 3DS less pirate friendly...

definately go for the ds.
its absolutely my favourite platform of the actual generation!
and the standard (lite) is the best version imo. you can actually play GBA games with it which enhances the library for a 1000 games and there are really some of the best games ever made on it.
also the bigger screens of the XL let some games look pixelated!

noisereductions 12.23.2010 08:46 AM

I always think it best to get into a console a bit later in its life. This is the perfect time to get a DS. My advice: get a phat or Lite since you can still play GBA games on it too. There's a shit ton of GBA and DS games to be had used for super cheap now. AND there's still new DS games being released steadily.

EVOLghost 12.23.2010 08:47 AM

^ yeh...this....


I got a next gen system like 2 years after they were released.

EVOLghost 12.23.2010 08:48 AM

Not that late considering they're planning to keep them around for like another 4 or 5 years.

EVOLghost 12.23.2010 08:50 AM

and now....huge ass tour of a dood's retro video game collection

http://kotaku.com/5716630/this-could...n-in-the-world

noisereductions 12.23.2010 09:08 AM

my original gray cart GB collection is up to 220-something now. :)

Ghostchase 12.24.2010 12:33 AM

I can't wait to play Snake Eater on the 3DS!

EVOLghost 12.24.2010 05:29 AM

^

great game. probably has the best story in all the series....(next to 1)

Keeping It Simple 12.24.2010 07:07 AM

I couldn't help but notice that the high street video game retailer, Game, isn't selling pre-owned PS2 games anymore. It's a bugger.

The only game I really want to play other than ones with stupid mini games is New Super Mario Bros.

I've looked at a ton of DS game reviews and there isn't a whole lot that sticks out to me. It was kind of an impulse buy. Do any of you DS players have any must play suggestions for it??




 

I picked this up new for $15 and it's pretty sweet
