one of the best blowjob tracks in gaming:

Puzzle Quest has pretty ludicrous music which really has nothing to do with the game at all
I spent way too much time with that dumb game. The sequel is so fucking boring and I not only bought it but dragged myself through the entire thing.

Random thought: The US won in the plastic instrument genre, Japan won in the Puzzle RPG genre.

Yeah the sequel bored me to shit, and I deleted it to make more room on my meagre 20GB 360 HDD.

I actually re-downloaded it a couple of days ago, and am rinsing it out for the cheevos. It aint to bad, just boring as hell in anything more than a small dose. My savegame was around the end of the game, so no big deal.

The music is way more ridic in PQ2, is actually really frickin unusual

I wouldn't know. Had it turned down most of the time so I could listen to podcasts.

Arcade versions, I assume? If they're actually selling plastic drums to people with generally thin walls that would be - something. I don't know what.

If only the guitar hero guitars were half as kawaii as those drums...

Animal Crossing by itself already justified the 3DS purchase, if that's what you're referring to. I put over 80 hours into that game. I'm hoping Link Between Worlds is the next game I can play on the system, but I'm so worried that it'll be babby-tier

if only Monster Hunter 4 was coming this year instead.

I know, I have a habit of flippantly selling my consoles :'( but honestly I dig the regular 3DS' form factor over the XL. I prefer smaller tech and the screens look a lot sharper.

Yeah that quick look is amazing and so are the salty tears of vocaloid fans who fail to realizes that the guys do this for virtually every remotely wacky jappy thing ever (alongside EA's yearly roster update games) in the comments.

I've bought Project DIVA F twice (PS3 and PSV import) and I still thought it was funny. Especially the part where they were posing her and whenever they'd get close to an upskirt the game would just be like ERROR: NOT ALLOWED!!!

Troubleshooting a broken PC is so awful. I wish there were a device that let you diagnose your components for faults without the need to replace them one by one. So now I know: Not the GPU, not the motherboard. Seems to be the PSU after all. Sigh. And if it's not that I'm going to remain in netbook hell for at least another month or two until I can get a new CPU. Fuuuhuuuckthishit.

archnemesis · « **Reply #12273 on:** September 14, 2013, 10:28:01 AM »

Have you run Memtest86+ yet?

If the PSU isn't working at all you can often see it from the lights on the motherboard and/or case.

Rufus · « **Reply #12274 on:** September 14, 2013, 10:46:16 AM »

If I could my situation would be a 100% improved.
The screen stays black, just says no signal detected and goes to standby (the monitor is fine, tested it using my 360). Already tried a new GPU (as well as the on-board GPU of the new motherboard). Nada. Since I had to get new memory along with the new motherboard I can be fairly certain that they're fine. Well, it would be very unlikely for them to be broken out of the box.
If I hadn't sold my old CPU I could have easily dropped it in to see if it POSTs, but alas... So now I can flip a coin on whether it's the PSU not giving out enough juice (fans spin and LED are on) or the CPU. I can't imagine a CPU just dying from one moment to the other, but I guess it's not impossible. That said I really hope it's the PSU, because I really don't want to get a new CPU... I guess I could get one used, but that's a gamble I'm not willing to take at this point.

Fifstar · « **Reply #12275 on:** September 14, 2013, 11:32:42 AM »

Sounds like the PSU to me. I hate testing what's wrong with my computer as well, difficult to get parts just to test them and the constant fear that you break something while switching stuff out...

Rufus · « **Reply #12276 on:** September 14, 2013, 11:49:43 AM »

Yeah, I probably should have tried that first. Oh well. But now I have 8GB of DDR3 instead of just 4GB of DDR2, so it wasn't totally pointless...

Soul Hackers 3DS is getting released this week in Europe. How well does it compare to the other MegaTen games?

It's a port of a mid-late 90s game so it will appear aged. Also it is easier than the other entries and on top of that, you can bump the difficulty down further on the menu.

Still, it is a pretty great game and I had a lot of fun with it. The thread for the game is here: http://www.thebore.com/forum/index.php?topic=39982.msg1672853#msg1672853

I got The Warriors for the OG Xbox at a flea market yesterday for $5. Buut it does not play on a 360 and I have no OG Xbox, lol. Maybe I can borrow the one my sis' fam has, or I could find one somewhere and jump into last last gen!

Joe Molotov · « **Reply #12282 on:** September 17, 2013, 11:59:43 AM »

Since Game Center CX has become more well known in the US since the last release, I hope this gets a shot in the US.

Sega Sammy != Sega

Atlus will likely be their own thing and still have free reign. This however does mean the better likelihood of Atlus USA bringing over Sega properties Sega USA won't touch.

I really hope there's more than that. Those were pretty uninspired, even compared to the games from the first two. The first game looks like an exact copy of Mario Bros. gameplay, the shooting game looks like total shit compared to the ones in the first two (and fuck that gimmick), the maze game looks boring, and the pong game looks like a crappy iOS game. and that last bit? that pretty much *is* an iOS game, The Blocks Cometh.

The only game that looks good in there is that Adventure Island take.

i tought the mario bros clone looked nice,it kinda reminded me of mr'do castle with the whole trapping enemies into holes and then filling the hole up
