@mrantimatter: Nice Warhammer reference. :D
And I agree, it is rather Tzeenchian.

He sure has an eye for design ey?

Feigr commented on Whatever Happened to Color?

Mon, 26 May 2008 11:04:58 MDT

This is a big reason to why I still enjoy the WoW graphics and I thought Age of Conan looked bland and uninteresting, even though it's technically more advanced.

Feigr commented on Microsoft Explains "Gaywood" Ban

Wed, 21 May 2008 17:46:33 MDT

if Thegayergamer has content of a sexual nature, then Theheterogamer would have the same amount of sexual content right? Let's see them ban that name. Oh wait hypocrisy, right.

I wonder if it's scientifically possible for her to be more annoying than she is already.

Well whatever the purpose of the cell phone is their mission is accomplished since you wrote about it on the blog. ;)

Me and my friends had lots of fun playing HotD 2 on Dreamcast. The awesome dialog lines became in jokes (Suffer like G did?!).

Looking forward to playing HotD 3 for the first time.

Feigr commented on Some Disgaea DS Details revealed

Tue, 18 Mar 2008 13:42:42 MDT

I got the original Disgaea recently and I've played it for about 8 hours so far. Maybe I should wait for this game instead of playing that one more. Depends on when it comes out though of course.

Looking at the pictures I kinda wish I knew what Armored Core is.

Feigr commented on Gallery: Bionic Commando Rearmed

Thu, 13 Mar 2008 17:15:27 MDT

Remember that this game isn't developed by Capcom, it's developed by the same studio that is making the new Biobic Commando game. A swedish studio (Go Sweden!).

Looks great so far. :)

This makes me wish I was a few years older so I could have experienced the C64. Although playing around with my Amiga 2000 as a kid was fun too.

"We have learned that when self-regulation fails, government must step in"

In my mind this disqualifies him from being a politician at all.

@Sobe318: I'm with ya on the DQ remakes, it's a big shame if they never get released outside of Japan.

This news hopefully means that we don't have to wait THAT lone for Dragon Quest 9. And luckily it's a DS game so I don't have to worry about any European release. I only buy American version DS games anyway since the European cases are ugly.

Feigr commented on Gore Verbinski Pontificates About "Zero Narrative"

Mon, 10 Mar 2008 21:37:51 MDT

You mean Gears of War isn't a fucking mess?

I prefer games with minimal story. RPGs are my favourite genre.
You could see how this leads to frustration, especially with games like Final Fantasy X that's just one big dialog cutscene that occasionally lets you think that it'll actually leave you alone for more than 10 seconds without breaking out into another stupid dialog cut scene where adolescent uninteresting characters babble on about totally inane boring shit. And they're unskippable for extra annoyance!

Feigr commented on Disgaea Gets Another Port

Sat, 08 Mar 2008 07:07:18 MST

I got the original PS2 Disgaea in the mail yesterday, only had a chance to play it for about an hour so far but it's great. Smooth gameplay and fun characters.
I've also watched the anime and it's very funny as well.

And I thought I didn't like strategy RPGs!

Feigr commented on Simple 2000: The Japanese Software Chart

Thu, 06 Mar 2008 15:29:23 MST

@baked ham: The reason is probably that Microsoft pays good money for exclusives to try to get the 360 to sell in Japan.
Why else do you think Lost Odyssey was an exclusive for example? ;)

Feigr commented on What King of Fighters XII Taught Me About Diablo 3

Tue, 04 Mar 2008 16:19:59 MST

I's pretty sad that these days people assume that new games have to be 3D. Why not make Diablo 3 2D? In my mind 3D will probably never surpass 2D, atleast not for a few more years and making a 2D game is just as feasible today as it ever was.

Feigr commented on Square Enix Bringing "Dragon Quest Party" Stateside?

Mon, 03 Mar 2008 16:45:31 MST

Any game that involves Dragon Quest is a buy for me!

Now lets hear some new about the DS remakes of DQ 4-6!

Sounds like an interesting book. Too bad I don't read books.

We all need some free time. Most blogs are so dead on weekends and it was nice to see you contribute to Kotaku and make it enjoyable on the weekend as well.

As a huge Dead fan this is what I've been waiting for. I don't own Rock Band yet but the Dead songs is the biggest incentive for me to get a PS3.

I took the Wii to my parents over christmas and they just looked at it befuddled. But they aren't exactly tech savvy, they got their first DVD player at christmas and are still rocking the 15 year old TV set.

Feigr commented on Battlefield Heroes Screens, Pretty And Such

Fri, 29 Feb 2008 15:30:44 MST

@ArmyofJuan: From their official site:

As Gustav and his team worked on this art style in the early phases of the project, we knew that there was a chance we could be compared to the small but well known group of PC shooters that have separated themselves from the standard realistic style with a cartoon look - most notably Monolith's No One Lives Forever, Ubisoft's XIII and Valve's Team Fortress 2.

Satisfied?

Feigr commented on Battlefield Heroes Screens, Pretty And Such

Fri, 29 Feb 2008 15:28:41 MST

I must say that the nazis (sorry Nationals) look very chic. Even though it's a WW2 setting they aren't using swastikas or even iron crosses, instead there are X:s on the plane wings.
I wonder if that's a marketing thing or if they thought that actual nazi symbols would clash with the cartoony look of the game.

Wow it's great to see Etrian Odyssey 2 doing so well! It's such a niche hardcore title and they deserve their sales.

Vikings did not have horned helmets. There are no archaeological or written records of it.

Wed, 27 Feb 2008 19:49:14 MST

"Shoot from behind my shoulder" was apparently way to complicated of an instruction for that camerman since he just stood beside the dude instead and didn't get a good view straight in front of the screen.

Feigr commented on Road Rash Returns? Sounds Like It [Update]

Wow I remember playing Road Rash on the PC back in the day. Didn't even know there were console versions released until now.

Has it been confirmed wether or not it's possible to play using the D-pad on the Classic Controller? I prefer d-pad controls over analog stick.

Feigr commented on GDC, DICE, E3 Could All Be Press Invite Only Next Year

Wed, 27 Feb 2008 13:31:28 MST

GDC should have been invite-only all along. Don't really know if it's a good idea with E3 though but I guess it all depends on how many people actually get invited.

@Kyle81:
It's not a review it's a piece of comedy and it's supposed to be that.
It's recorded for entertainment purposes and not meant to be a fair journalistic review of the game.

I hope the DS version will have wifi dueling, that was the only thing missing from the otherwise amazing PQ.

Feigr commented on Harrison, Molyneux Agree - Controllers Are Too Complicated

Tue, 26 Feb 2008 09:46:13 MST

I would say FPS games are partly to blame. They have no place on a console in the first place and the trigger buttons and dual analog sticks are in some respects a product of catering to FPS players.
