Title: Games you like behind evilbore's back
Post by: Guybrush Threepwood on January 28, 2009, 12:50:42 PM: I'm a big fan of the Phoenix Wright series despite the rest of evilbore denouncing it as animu tripe.

I also :heartbeat Shenmue

i am fond of the control scheme for those particular types of games even though the wii remote's inaccuracy can be frustrating and the blurry graphics are just...blurry

can't wait until ms does fps waggle correctly with the xaggle

Post by: EmCeeGrammar on January 28, 2009, 02:25:56 PM: Yes metroid prime had bad controls and some unintuitive backtracking here and there but its one of my favorite games of all time. Every few months I crave another runthrough. I think the haters just miss samus' aerial acrobatic movement from the 2d games. I still don't think shinesparking and being able to walljump anywhere would've worked even if prime was in third person.

Serious? I barely made it through the first level. I thought it had potential, but they really shit it up. And the controls were bad...like worse than Wii Play even.

I'm a highly patient gamer (I beat Batman Dark Tomorrow and Escape From Bug Island just to test myself) and the novelty of the whole Wii control thang compelled me to keep going. Its a highly flawed game, and I'm sure if I picked it up again I'd be much less enthused for it, but at the time, it wasn't all that bad. And heck, it still has better graphics then most Wii games now.

But I wanted a wiimote cooking game ever since the controller was unveiled and it does a respectable job. Cooking Mama is trash in comparison.

Yoshi Touch and Go>>>>>>>Yoshi's Island DS btw.

Castlevania por was a great castlevania. I gave up on Dawn of Sorrow out of boredom but Portrait mixed the linear/non-linear aspects in an appealing way.

They are basically puzzle books that us adults can play without feeling like pedobear or ntard (like you do when you play Brain Training). They have great art, voices, music and nice little mystery stories to sugarcoat the fact we're just doing a puzzle book.

Kind of. A lot of those two hours were spent trying to figure out how to make the gun point in the right direction and wrestling with the controls.

Post by: cool breeze on January 28, 2009, 07:13:29 PM: I hate Red Steel, but along with Kameo and (probably) Resistance 2, it's one of those games that I keep thinking "ok, it couldn't have been that bad" until I played it and realized it was.

Post by: Bebpo on January 28, 2009, 07:27:34 PM: I didn't realize Kameo was hated. It's my favorite post-PD Rare game. The connecting battleground was dumb, but the levels were nice adventure/platforming like Psychonauts/Zelda-lite with gorgeeeeeeeous graphics for the time. So pretty. I would've liked a sequel.
Title: Re: Games you like behind evilbore's back
Post by: Bildi on January 28, 2009, 07:40:10 PM: It had a few shortcomings that I was willing to overlook, but Rare's level design started to grate on me and that snow village pushed me over the edge.

Post by: duckman2000 on January 28, 2009, 07:46:26 PM: Kameo was pretty in a choice cut sort of way. The whole was a vile mesh of Rare brand shit-for-balance and a jackhammer approach to "next-gen" graphics.

It had real nice music, though. Way too nice ("epic") for the actual content of the game, so that ended up being a failure as well.

I don't get where Nintendo is coming from with the Wii Motion Plus. Casuals won't understand the difference and it is likely to be severely under-utilised in "hardcore" games just like existing Wii features are.

I'm being really pessimistic here but I won't be entirely surprised if it's a gigantic bomb.

Took em 2 years to admit accelerometers were wothless.

As far as I've heard, DOAX2 has the nastiest, most painful and OCD unlock requirements outside of a Korean MMO in order to encourage you to buy the DLC unlocks. And on top of that, I hear it's a sloppy mess that none of the developers gave a shit about. I have a copy of the game, but I don't think I'll ever play it.

yeah its not even 60fps all the time. plus the achievements are insane.

i have a copy too (paid AUS$30) that i played once so i dont feel bad about buying it.

I never tried DOAX2. The core volleyball mechanic in the first game was brilliant and since DOAX2 was identical in that regard (as far as I know), I didn't bother.

The soundtrack in DOAX was pretty darn good.

And I loved collecting swimsuits.

smh
You wanna know what's smh? I spent $20 at an arcade once to play Target: Terror. Got to the last level, had to repeat it three times to save the pilot of the hijacked airliner before giving up. I didn't know you had to shoot the gun out of his hands! :'(

Phoenix Wright is awesome.

FFXII has probably the best combat ever in an RPG and is one of the best FFs.

Post by: dammitmattt on January 29, 2009, 10:43:59 AM: I'm generally a positive person and the only thing that I find myself being cynical about is the Wii. As much as Sony's software sucks and hinders my enjoyment of the PS3, I can still easily enjoy the good games on the system.

There are a number of "B" level or "'Bore controversial" games that I've really enjoyed over the past few years:

Ratchet and Clank 5
Assassin's Creed
Just Cause
The Godfather
Metroid Prime 3
Boom Blox
Too Human
NCAA/Madden (does anyone here play sports games?)
Prince of Persia
Banjo Kazooie
Mass Effect
Oblivion
Layton
Picross

and so many more...
