Kingdom Hearts 3DS only $10 for today only

If I had a 3DS and hated myself I'd jump on that deal!

Am I the only one hoping for a Muppets crossover in the next Kingdom Hearts? Disney owns that, and having Statler and Waldorf heckle the heroes would be the greatest thing ever.

Lol region locking your handhelds. They're just mad about all the western press discussion of that with touching game on the regular ass DS so now they won't let us near anything meant solely for their home region anymore.

Was at Electric Daisy Carnival NY today and when leaving I got a flyer for this:



An FF themed rave? And it's the fourth one? Why the fuck didn't I know about this sooner???

http://www.nycravers.com/vinylfantasy

[StealthFan]

Good God I wouldn't go there if I was the most desperate man on earth. The smell would be toxic and the girls would resemble a short bus.

Speaking of girls, that's probably the only rave I can think of where men would outnumber girls by like 10-1. Have fun rolling with a bunch of sweaty skinnyfat bros.

EDIT: Any hot chick there will already have a non-special fellow boyfriend, either attending with them or at home. No hot chick is going to one of those to roll and get fucked. At best you're getting an ugly broad that spreads to whoever is willing.

nah.  if they have a boyfriend, he'll be on their arm.  and lots of girls go to these things, not just Yaoi Betty

[brob]

a final fantasy rave is still a rave before a final fantasy event.

I was at a star wars rave once and it was not much different from a normal rave.

[Trent Dole]

Actually, it was apparently requested by Capcom, of all people.

...that's, really weird.

I just got back from anime rave and well this isn't exactly true. Sure, there were tons of ugly chicks and chicks with their bfs. But, there were tons of decent to hot girls.

And on the dude side. Yeah, probably more dudes, but I hate to say it, many wouldn't feel embarrassed at all on taking off their shirt.

Anime fans sure like to party.

oooh will bite on the Dark Souls DLC at that price. Kinda criminal how I havent played it yet, as Dark Souls is my favourite game of this generation

[Raban]

Artorias of the Abyss will be your favorite DLC of the generation.

best bosses in the game
better weapons
awesome, varied levels

[chronovore]

I'm glad that I demoed Karateka before purchase. As a fan of the original on my Apple II, I really wanted this to not suck, but it is a clinic on how to make a meh remake.

[Raban]

The Warriors is coming to PSN May 28th/29th for US/EU. According to himu, you should check this game out.

[ferrarimanf355]

I still have $15 or so in my PSN account, so yeah, I'll certainly check it out.

[Himu]

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Don Flamenco]

take the wait and see on that one-- I looked up the GTA games and peeps were having some technical issues. 

[The Sceneman]

booo it seems Artorias of the Abyss is still 1200 in my region. Lame. I'll likely buy it soon anyhow. No achievements is but Dark Souls is the game of the forever so whatevs

edit: wrong thread

It's interesting, emulators are going to be dead simple for this coming generation. Wii U support will easily be integrated into dolphin's codebase, and the other two are straight x86-64 machines which will essentially warrant a glorified hypervisor.

[Rufus]

Don't hold your breath for Wii U support, looking at what kind of hardware you need to run Wii games well.

[pickle]

You'd be surprised. Dolphin (as far as I'm aware) is still getting frequent speed improvements, you also have the advantage of a stable, mature emulator for a lineage of machines in which the Wii U doesn't significantly depart from. If the authors ever start work on a tracing JIT compiler then all the better.

yeah, just make your own cloud with infinite power and code it to the metal, simple as that!    :xbone

It probably helps that its backward compatible to Wii games, but  I don't know jack shit about what goes into making an emulator, so take this however you will but I was under the impression that a tri-core CPU alone would be too complex for now or the foreseeable future.

There's no metal in a cloud, how does this work?

I don't think that many developers are going to be able to do anything with cloud processing. Wayyy too much lag over the average internet connection. Even over 10GbE I think you'd be stretching it.

Haven't you ever heard of a silver lining?   Just code it to that.

Hm, looks interesting, but iI'm not sure I can deal with the horror. Miasmata was a bit of a joke in that regard.

[magus]

someone did a full playtrough of kenzan and translated all of the relative cutscene,tought you guys might be interessed



so wait... you play as miyamoto musashi? that's pretty badass

[Himu]

I have always wanted to play that. But I neglected buying it because I don't know Japanese. Maybe I should change my method a bit. Maybe the reason I don't know Japanese is because I don't have many Japanese voice acted games rather than the opposite. Importing now.

[brob]

Right on himu. Be sure to watch anime without the subtitles at least once a day as well. :thumbsup

[Himu]

Indeed.

[Joe Molotov]

I actually learned a lot of Japanese from playing text-heavy, voice-heavy Japanese games.  Japanese dramas and news/variety programs, too.  It's just important that you have awareness of which stuff is for adults and which stuff is for kids.  99% of anime is for kids, so copying the way they speak in anime makes you sound like He-Man.

Sounds good, but what's the downside?

From the comments: "Oculus Rift support please!"

It has suddenly occurred to me that horror games + the Oculus rift could provide a very effective alternative to laxatives.

best use of uncle phil ever

Game looks tight as shit, if it isnt an IAP fest

[magus]

it's garbage.  pretty much plays itself, and it's IAP'd up the wazoo.  typical mobage.

[magus]

allright so basicaly it's a noir story where you are a bookworm who lives in fairyland tales,someone killed humpty dumpty and you have to investigate and the three little pigs are a team of journalist...

man i missed sony doing games with this level of stupid

[The Sceneman]

do you believe in Humpty Dumpty?

[radioheadrule83]

Is that Gaffer joking or is Aisha Tyler really doing Ubisoft's conference this year?

I want to rage at people who probably don't watch Archer and dared to diss Lana last year. That other dude who was on the stage was the very apex of human failure, but I love Aisha <3

Never mind, watched the video... I think she might be

new nippon ichi game announced



apparently it's a ps3 sidescroller! between this,the witch and the hundred knight and god and fate paradox it's great to see nippon ichi going back to original IP

You got a PS3 just in time, brother.
