I'm genuinely not trying to hate on DA3 but I'm not really seeing why people are getting excited over that trailer. It's why I'm posting this here and not shitting up the DA3 thread.

However I am bound by heritage to support anything and everything that has the word Inquisition in it so I guess I'm buying it, lol.

Angry Video Game Nerds movie ruined?

Quote

Angry Video Game Nerd: The Movie is an upcoming independent film based on the series. Rolfe is serving as director, producer and co-writer and reprises his on-screen role of The Nerd. The film is expected to be released in 2014 at the end of the year in limited releases at film festivals before being released on DVD, and possibly Blu-ray. The budget of the film came entirely from fan donations. The story centers around the alleged burial of over 1 million copies of the proclaimed "worst video game of all time", E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial for the Atari 2600, as The Nerd embarks on a quest to prove that there is nothing buried there after being pressured by fans to review the video game

Imagine if the copies of E.T uncovered today in Mexico were the 'Good' version of the game and it suddenly became the best game of all time?

I think Atari and the city denied it for a while.

Quote

Writing for the Pacific Historical Review, John Wills has also described the burial as an urban legend, calling it "widely acknowledged but rarely substantiated". Wills believes that the location's place in the public psyche—its proximity to the sites of both the Trinity nuclear test and Roswell UFO incident—has aided the popularity of the story

I don't know why but I blame Chronovore with my desire to pick up Bully for the 360. I mean I beat it for the PS2 but I think he was raving about how good it was on the 360 a few years back so I had to have the best console version.

ANYWAYS

I finally bought it and I am happy. Might play it to see how it is but I've got my 360 routed through my ONE and there's a nasty input delay that makes me no want to play anything on the 360 ever again.

chronovore · « **Reply #13471 on:** April 29, 2014, 10:05:26 AM »

Man, I am happy to hear you're having fun. BULLY. YES.

I think there are a couple added classes in the 360 version, which is similar to the Wii port, as I understand it. You will not want to play those additional classes with any kind of input shenanigans for your controller. The science dissection class was pretty infuriating.

Trent Dole · « **Reply #13474 on:** April 29, 2014, 06:41:09 PM »

The new classes in Bully were very much made for (stupid) Wii controls and are a pain on 360. They only unlock cosmetic stuff anyway so they don't really matter.

chronovore · « **Reply #13475 on:** April 29, 2014, 06:49:37 PM »

I'm pretty sure that cosmetic stuff is still counted toward the 100% completion Achievement though, so I did them.

DISSECTION. HELL. (Probably not as bad as I'm remembering.)

i remember playing the fan translation and being utterly bored by what i tought was an horrible mix of techno babbling and anime pandering but i'm still really curious about it because A) it's rare to see this sort of game approaching the english shores and B) the plot involve time travel and groundhog day like scenario which i love

I own the deluxe edition but I haven't played it yet. Watched the anime and it's great, though the first third of it is a TON of exposition/setup (but that makes the second and third parts awesome).

It wouldn't surprise me if some of these characters are added to the home versions, then get added back into the arcade version later on. That's pretty much Arc's M.O.
