She's in another game like every week now.

Looks awesome but when will Luka get her chance in the spotlight?

the forums are locked. oh, he's native italian...this would explain the miscommunication and the stubborness about being corrected

the vid in case anyone else nerds out on this stuff:

anyone can see the similarities at the end of the vid-- the menus are practically the same. but also the character's animations when jumping and wall running were practically 1:1 to ninja gaiden, aside from physics. The stage intro splash screen with the red background is in the Sigma series...not as much red in NG xbox, I don't think. But the text formatting is also just like NG.

too bad it only runs in debug mode on modded xboxes , i'd like to try it. Pretty neat stuff...I wonder if it was Team Ninja working on this game or if it's some other team's work that they took for NG.

Cool vid. Looks too western to be made by Team Ninja to me, maybe they just bought this once these guys went bust.

Is the Darksiders 2 season pass worth buying?

^^nah, guy who leaked it confirmed Tecmo was working on it. its just early as hell...hence the bad framerate, collision detection, etc. though i can understand how it would be confused with a finished western action game

Yeah I was kind of suprsied/bummed that in PSO2 they only had Miku's outfit/hair. I'd roll with Luka or Rin gear.

Could just be using a lot of built-in textures. It has the "look" of a prototype.

Game is awful, should have just got the PSP version for cheaper.

I already like the game dudes

I don't have a psp unfortunately and besides they bilinear filtered the sprites and it looks like shit. but it does have the best CG cut scene of all time:

Don Flamenco · « **Reply #11300 on:** April 15, 2013, 06:30:17 PM »

shot in the dark, but if someone has one of these PS1 games and wants to sell, lemme know:

--Galerians
--Fear Effect 1 or 2
--Intelligent Qube
--Tobal No.1
--Einhander
--Strider 2

i'll pay around amazon/ebay prices if they're complete

Positive Touch · « **Reply #11301 on:** April 15, 2013, 06:45:01 PM »

iirc i got both fear effects and im pretty sure i got strider also. will check later tonight.

Do you want Tobal to own or play? Tobal 2 is a much better game, and the PS1 makes it easy to play imports. or do you want the FF7 demo?

I wanna play it, mess around with Quest Mode. I have an iso of Tobal 2 translated, but I'll have to play that on ePSXe, unless I get a CRT and a PS1. playing these on PS3, otherwise. I do want to get the FFVII demo, for nostalgia's sake.

I have a goal of beating Quest Mode in both of those games...shit is like a rogue like fighting game. insanity.

demi · « **Reply #11305 on:** April 16, 2013, 09:20:40 AM »

Why not just play Ehergeiz's roguelike? Awesome addition I wish Tekken 6 or whatever did - though the beat em up was neat as well.

Don Flamenco · « **Reply #11306 on:** April 16, 2013, 10:55:02 AM »

I want that too, actually. my list of ps1 games i want doubled last night...

Yeah, I like those kinds of modes in fighters-- tekken force and shit like that. Its a shame people shit on them most of the time.

tiesto · « **Reply #11307 on:** April 16, 2013, 01:29:30 PM »

I liked the roguelike mode in Tobal no 1 (haven't played 2 though... for whatever reason). I think Tekken Force mode in T3 is really clunky but the voiceover that says "Chicken!" is one of the best things ever in a game.

cool breeze · « **Reply #11308 on:** April 16, 2013, 04:30:55 PM »

The tekken single player mode in 4 or 5 (just remember playing it on ps2) sucked. You could only plays as Jin and it didn't feel like regular tekken fighting. But the tekken 3 one was fun.

Some weird minigames/spin-off of fighting games ou there. There was a soul calibur wii game, the tekken nina game for ps2, and that virtua fighter one. Best of them is mortal kombat shaolin monks.

demi · « **Reply #11309 on:** April 16, 2013, 07:20:39 PM »

Was all set to get I Am Alive, but remembered DOTW is only for Gold, for which I am not -- havent got around to buying a new year.

Don Flamenco · « **Reply #11312 on:** April 17, 2013, 07:49:29 PM »

if you think you'll want to play Nier at some point, i'd pick up a copy now. seems like one of those games that spikes in price once people realize all the copies have been eaten up (i.e. once the "PS3/360 gems you missed" articles start rolling in.) Already listed at $28 for the cheapest used PS3 copy on amazon, but you can still easily find it at gamestop for like $10.

It's not gonna get a reprint ever and it's a cult hit, so it's going to go up as copies dry up. Prices have crept up on ebay too-- between ebay and amazon, i'm not sure of a better way to gauge the value of a game, since that's where the buyers are.

there are always some dumb side characters, but i like the main cast of PW too, so I'm hoping they're in there.

that said, that pic is appropriately ridiculous^^^ and the new guy looks less Sephiroth and more JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, which is good

I'm sure the big twist is that he's actually innocent and in an epic turnaround, Phoenix gets the real bad guy and helps this eagle fly free. Or something.

It worked for Trials and Tribulations, which had a super awesome final case.
