Benjamin Briggs Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 I find it odd he thinks just because the graphics were "2D" (they aren't really) the SNES could handle it... the backgrounds have really nice artwork and combine with polygonal cloth patches and vector-like uh yarn graphics. No way SNES could handle that. sometimes people exaggerate weird I know edit: oh shit that killzone 3 review was incredible
Brushfire Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 OverClocked After Dark's fan voted Game of the Year.

No way SNES could handle that. The game's graphics are praised by pretty much everybody, its about the only thing good about the game IMO. But the lack of the ability to die, or use hardly any special powers in the game really makes it a kinda snore fest. Coop is also completely useless compared to other Kirby titles Hey, that's uncalled for. I'm sure The Coop is just as good at Epic Yarn as he is at other Kirby titles.

Thin Crust Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 edit: oh shit that killzone 3 review was incredible And yet he forgets that Guerilla games is based in Europe. Most of his review was complaining about how us Americans made the British look bad.
The Coop Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 Coop is also completely useless compared to other Kirby titles **sniffle** I'm... I'm not useless. **bottom lips quivers**
Modus Posted March 31, 2011 Posted March 31, 2011 Dragon Age II Yahtzee has never echoed my thoughts more perfectly. It sucked.
Less Ashamed Of Self Posted April 1, 2011 Posted April 1, 2011 Another excellent episode guys. Sephire, if you're still popping in here from time to time, any chance the overwhelming response from teachers/doctors you tweeted might necessitate a pro-active company for gamification in these fields? I would donate to a kick-starter for such a project, heck, I'd donate regularly. I believe in the importance of it.

The Damned Posted April 6, 2011 Posted April 6, 2011 HAH! I bring you this newest Zero Punctuation! http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/zero-punctuation/3008-Pokemon-White I laughed at the ending, and the thing about the bell is pretty accurate. But that tower had some cool music, so it evened out. But his racism comment is something that even GameFAQs is done with... Come on, Yahtzee, you're using ancient 4chan /v/ jokes now?

Hey, he wasn't in this one either.
Archaon Posted April 6, 2011 Posted April 6, 2011 You know, I was going to say it was a bit stupid for him to complain that there was only one strategy (super-effective moves) then later complain that a gym leader forced him to use a different strategy. Then I remembered that my battle with Elesa basically went "Whoops, Emolga can fly. Better get out the Boldore."
Modus Posted April 6, 2011 Posted April 6, 2011 I haven't played Pokemon since Gold/Silver... kind of caught on to the same-ness of every release and I always had trouble navigating the "what is everyone weak to" chart that I printed out and set on my lap. I was done when they started giving Pokemon TWO types and I couldn't do the math to figure out what they were weak to.

Modus Posted April 7, 2011 Posted April 7, 2011 ...But they've always had 2 types... Shows how much of a Pokemon fan I am. I just picked whatever attack looked coolest. there r weaknesses wut?
The Damned Posted April 7, 2011 Posted April 7, 2011 It's true! I hate spiders, and even I used one in my game. In fact, I would like to add one to my trained team. But then you realize that not only does it have two large eyes, but also two smaller eyes... in fact, pretty much everything that is blue on its body is an eye of some sort. Then it becomes very disturbing.
The Author Posted April 7, 2011 Posted April 7, 2011 Hell, who cares about strength and weakness, my current team is more thematic and while it has some weaknesses, it's also a lot more fun than constant min/maxing. (Just because I dont feel like typing out the names and to avoid spoiling some things, I use 630 609 637 494 503 and 643. 503 and 630 are the exception to the theme, simply because I needed a flying and I can't part with my starter.)
The Damned Posted April 7, 2011 Posted April 7, 2011 Victini, Samurott, Chandelure, Mandibuzz, Volcarona and Reshiram. But what's the theme, again?
Bleck Posted April 7, 2011 Posted April 7, 2011 It's true! I hate spiders, and even I used one in my game. It's a tick.
The Author Posted April 7, 2011 Posted April 7, 2011 Victini, Samurott, Chandelure, Mandibuzz, Volcarona and Reshiram.But what's the theme, again? Fire. With the exception of Mandibuzz and Samurott (and I'd dump Mandibuzz for a flying fire in a second if there was one available), they all have fire and something else, namely Psychic, ghost, bug and dragon. Samurott is the only pure type, as Mandibuzz is flying dark. (And I could drop Samurott for a good hybrid water, but frankly, he has 4 HMs on him so he's a bit of a swiss army knife)
Brushfire Posted April 7, 2011 Posted April 7, 2011 Fire.With the exception of Mandibuzz and Samurott (and I'd dump Mandibuzz for a flying fire in a second if there was one available) I got Charmanders.
