ugly girl, but nice fabric and coloring

I'm glad to see their lighting and textures have improved notably. However, the colors are also less bold. Try not to look like just another shooter, okay?

I'm also not entirely digging the fact that the number of different voices I've heard so far totals 3. I hope there's a little more variety in the voice acting and a little less commentary over the radio.

Opening pic made me lol.

psychobaka commented on Dirt, So Heavy, So Very Heavy

Sat, 04 Oct 2008 10:48:17 MDT

For this contest, I would define "dirt" as a substance that forms mud when it is mixed with water.

Sand doesn't really make mud unless it has been mixed with "dirt", and rocks definitely don't make mud unless they've been ground down and mixed with organic material to make said "dirt".

psychobaka commented on University Charging Students To Use Game Room

Wed, 01 Oct 2008 22:51:22 MDT

We get charged hourly, but that is for billiards, table tennis, and bowling, and not nearly the rates that these guys are charging. Honestly, if you don't have access to these game systems for free in the first place, then you need to get out of your dorm room and make some friends or some money.

It'll be better than "Forbidden Kingdom". I can almost guarantee it.

Snowboarding MMO? Could be good.

I think they should just cut costs and offer the maids stand-alone.

psychobaka commented on MMO Players Surprisingly Adept At Lying On Surveys

Tue, 30 Sep 2008 20:06:21 MDT

Well, I for one have been an MMORPG player since I picked up FFXI 5 years ago. I exercise a minimum of 1 hour a day. If I don't, I end up feeling tired and ill by the end of a gaming session and don't feel like playing or doing anything. So I guess you could say one has to exercise regularly if he wants to play video games well.

I thought the coverage was a little excessive until the GTA IV NPR incident. Then it was no holds barred.

Always nice to have a moderator in the midst, though.

Stylish!

I thought the article title was misspelled "Sceptical" instead of "Skeptical", but according to Google they can be used interchangeably. Guess you learn something new every day.

psychobaka commented on Which Of These Is Not A Trap?

Fri, 26 Sep 2008 05:14:51 MDT

The dudes are the one with the bunny ears and obviously the middle person. If you follow the link, that picture shows off how little chest "she" has and "her" masculine arms.

At any rate, I think this is a dishonor to the bunny suit.

If the quality is anywhere close to Lost Odyssey they'll have me hook, line, and sinker.

Great game. I still have a copy of the normal version. But that is just flat out beautiful. This reminds me of a quote from Kill Bill: "You hocked a Hattori Hanzo?!"

psychobaka commented on What Genre Are You Sick Of?

Sat, 20 Sep 2008 09:02:35 MDT

Third person action games. It just isn't as exciting watching someone else have all the fun while you bark orders at them.

WoW has been about the only one to hold my interest, but that's probably because the camera is free-roaming and the pacing is just right.

psychobaka commented on At Least Harmonix See The Funny Side In European Rock Band Pricing

Fri, 19 Sep 2008 22:36:02 MDT

It'd probably be good if they released a dollar-by-dollar summary of what makes up this ridiculously high price, so jokes like this wouldn't churn up so much smoldering hate.

I personally thought it was quite clever, but I'm just a stupid American that only cares about my own price tags.

I'm still waiting for some X-Japan on Rock Band DLC. Particularly that 19-minute version of "Orgasm" from their Last Live album.

Looks like they got the animations and physics down to a tee. It's very small, but it definitely shows that they care about getting as genuine as possible. I very much look forward to seeing what comes of this.

If Sega ends up killing this tiny glimmer of hope, I think it would be severing the final line to their long-time fan-base.

Well after seeing what they did with Nights (good, but the whole chase-the-bird thing completely RUINED the exploration aspect!), I'm not so sure this is a good thing.

psychobaka commented on Epic Hard FFXI Boss Killed In One Minute

Mon, 15 Sep 2008 05:11:38 MDT

Number 1 thing I hated about this game was the fact that you HAD to get these super-rare gears (literally months of dedicated farming) if you wanted to stand a chance at these bosses. Number 2 problem is the PC engine sucks (although not as bad as PSU).

psychobaka commented on Rock Band 2 Launch: Gameplay Vids

Sun, 14 Sep 2008 20:25:10 MDT

Bought it and love it. It's nothing revolutionary, but it fixes all the problems I had with the first game (Overscan mode, THANK YOU!!!!).

Now if they just added a way to turn off that damn film effect and made star power (or whatever it's called on there) a little more epic like GH1 and GH2.

The game runs without the CD and I didn't even have to get a crack. I am happy.

Sat, 13 Sep 2008 11:10:40 MDT

Could be fun. Just gotta wait and see. Now that I've seen more of the werewolf mode it actually looks like it could be a nice change of pace (reminds me of PSU combat, which I really liked).

psychobaka commented on You Got Hurt While Gaming?

Sat, 13 Sep 2008 00:28:32 MDT

The worst I've ever gotten, which isn't much, is when I injured my index finger playing drums on Rock Band when it first came out. I was holding them wrong and a great deal of impact was going straight into my hand. After a multi-hour session, my index finger was so sore I could hardly move it. After a couple days of this, I broke down and looked online for how to properly hold them. Haven't had a problem since.
