You get banned for celebrating getting a first post in? Some of you need to get out more if you find that a problem.

Broken_Hands commented on Beyond Good & Evil Too Difficult, Sequel More "Accessible"

Fri, 30 May 2008 03:47:45 MDT

The first was a little too easy while still very enjoyable. So, for the love of god don't leave it with one difficulty setting this time. Atleast give "us" the choice as to how difficult we want the game.

I don't have any problem with this being seen as incensitive. It is perfectly understandable that the images seen in RE5 videos will convey certain "ideas". The problem i have is that some of those who believe this is incensitive tend to also believe that it should be censored or banned in order to stop others from being offended.

Thankyou in advance.

@jeffx: No. I can understand some topics about peripherals that don't make any sense, have no real function or are just plain bizzare, but this just amounts to a case that holds memory cards. This is 0 on the richter scale of news.

@Islandkiwi:

Yes, but as yahtzee said, there are a lot of bad point and click adventure games. Some of which he could have used in their place. In fact it was like he had a vendetta against them. Anyway, i really enjoyed discworld noir. Haven't had a chance to read Making Money though.

Apart from the fact he pointed to the discworld games as being bad (poor taste/timing, since Terry Pratchet has been diagnosed with early onset alzheimers) it was an otherwise great review with some very valid points and great quotable insults.

Here's an idea. Send back the peddle they gave you and buy a new drum kit using the cash left over from your $2000. Sell the old broken drum kit on ebay to limit your losses.

In all seriousness Sony can get ****ed for this blatent undercutting of MS's steller online service.

Fugly, and it may be contributing to waste plastic by including a peripheral that will go straight in the bin.

I thought valve were perfect but obviously they are incapable of realising that the companion cube is a hot item and will sell well. Perhaps someone should tell them to make some more?

Can someone explain the award PGR4 won? Is it saying that those new ideas that were scraped from the bottom of a barrel should really have been in PGR3 and not used as an exscuse to get PGR fans to go out and buy a sequel?

Broken_Hands commented on LIVE Will Have More Impact Than Wii-mote

Wed, 05 Sep 2007 06:14:33 MDT

This is a major problem i see in the sector of the gaming industry more closely involved with hardcore gamers. That problem being that a number of hardcore games still resolutely refuse to accept the wii is causing a mini revolution in games.

I cant say im particularly surprised at this. The UK is a sucker for movie game tie ins and pokemon. Not that i am though.

Broken_Hands commented on New/Old Guitar Hero II Tracks Available On XBLM

Sat, 21 Jul 2007 18:42:49 MDT

Their are 72 songs on GHII. It will take most people an age to go through every song and five star everything so why would anyone need to buy song packs. In all honesty i dont mind because im happy to wait for GHIII for new songs.

Broken_Hands commented on A Week In Comments (With Ban Info)

Fri, 20 Jul 2007 07:49:28 MDT

I dont understand what you mean by "ban info". Is it to do with people being banned for what they say? And in this case are the comments in the above article taken from people who have had a complaint held against them.

Broken_Hands commented on 2chan Explains Why Japan Hates Xbox 360

Thu, 19 Jul 2007 09:57:46 MDT

I like the one about it being "expencive, big and noisy". Its smaller than the PS3, less expenicve than the PS3 but is the most noisy next gen console.

One of the most important things i didnt see many people saying was that the games didnt cater for the japanese market. MS need to sign up as many companies to produce japanese games as possible. A couple of RPGs arent going to do teh trick. They need already established franchises on their console.

I dont even think FF XII should be in the top 100 let alone top 10.

Mon, 02 Jul 2007 17:30:57 MDT

If everyone scoots their way over to gamerankings you'll see how they might have come up with that list. Im still baffled soul calibur wasnt included. Also, to any RE4 naysayers, why cant you accept it was great just because it wasnt scary, are you all old school RE fans?

I have to agree with whomever said that it would be better to simply create a top 100 in no particular order. To anyone dissapointed that their fave didnt make it remember that its probably on that list but considering the number of great games over the past 2-3 decades and differences in opinion its not a big deal who comes 3rd or 80th.
