luke-o 0 Report post Posted July 17, 2008 Yeah sorry I keep missing the updates. My drinking buddies moved out night out from Tuesdays to Wednesdays so I never get to see them until Thursday. LIJ was awesome. STICKLE BRICK FIREFLY?! Alone in the Dark, I've heard nothing but bad things about. Official Nintendo said it felt like an unfinished game.

AndrewTS 0 Report post Posted July 17, 2008 AitD does feel rushed out the door and unfinished, which is too bad because it could have been awesome. As it is, it's still awesomely bad. I finished the game on a rental. I AM THE ***ING UNIVERSE!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ravenbomb 0 Report post Posted August 13, 2008 The Prince of Persia retrospective was one of his best videos yet. Also, I'm surprised as hell to see Spider-man 2 on his top 5 games list. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
luke-o 0 Report post Posted August 13, 2008 I'm not, I loved Spider-Man 2. I couldn't quite make the others out though. Number 5 kind of looked like Bart vs The Space Mutants but that can't be right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike wanna be 0 Report post Posted August 13, 2008 One is Portal, another...looks like Silent Hill 1, could be wrong. Spider-Man 2, and the fifth one is...that game! The one with the egg thing on the cover, fuck I can't think of the title of it, he's mentioned it in the previous videos a few times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Those were pretty much my exact thoughts about the series. Great series, and at the very worst still "very good," albeit with some misguided attempts to "fix" the flaws. I'm hoping he ends up sprouting those wings, too. It's no secret I like the new Prince of Persia games, right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

death_by_burrito 0 Report post Posted October 9, 2008 Mercenaries 2 was last weeks. This weeks is The Force Unleashed for the Wii. Having played it on 360, is it really as bad as he makes it seem? He is right about the light saber being useless once your force lightning and force push are strong enough. It's still cool to hoist people into the air, throw your light saber through them, and then throw them into space. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

death_by_burrito 0 Report post Posted October 10, 2008 I got that he just played it for Wii. I guess my post is just worded badly. I guess now that I see how badly I put it, does anyone else that played it for Wii agree that it is that bad? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
luke-o 0 Report post Posted October 10, 2008 It's really not that bad on the Wii. Really. It's very playable and very fun. Sure the graphics are mid-level PS2 at best, but you only notice that in the God awful cutscenes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Krome Studios, of Ty the Tasmanian Tiger and the last 2 Spyro games made that version of the game. LucasArts did the 360/PS3 versions. Also, the Metacritic and Gamerankings' scores are slightly higher on the PS360. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
