I feel like the lone God of War fan.  :'( The latest one sucked but all the others are good times.

I enjoyed the first two but by the end of the third, I knew the party was over.

I liked the first 3 console God of Wars.  Fun games, but not masterpieces like many would say.

Yeah they're definitely not masterpieces of gaming by any stretch, they're just fun games to me. I give the series a bit of credit for creating its own market of hack and slash brawler, with a lot of other games trying to copy the formula but failing miserably.

I was still a huge nintard during the PS2 era though. Somehow convinced myself that shit like Starfox Adventures was good. :-\

It wasn't a good one either. If it dropped the Devil May Cry reboot angle, I think I'd stomach it a lot more than I can.

Sony's first parties exposed for the frauds they are  :rejoice

All those millions that could have gone to fund talented developers with heads on their shoulders, rather than firmly wedged up their derrieres.

Crash 1-3, GT1-2, Wild Arms weren't bad. (Though correct me if I'm wrong in that Wild Arms isn't first party?)

Sony's gone down the shitter in regards to first party since PS2 though. I know a lot of you like Ratchet and Clank and Jak and they're okay... but they weren't great, must owns IMO. They still had a varied output worth checking out.

PS3? Uh... outside of like... Wipeout HD and Uncharted... not a lot of things.

It's Ruzbeh. He hates every game ever made.

Well of course, but I can't find that Miles Edgeworth photoshopped into taco.jpg image, so that was the next best thing.

The original, in Roanoake, is still the best.

Demon's Souls is a Sony PS3 IP, even if SCEA wanted nothing to do with it before it caught fire thanks to Atlus.

The Jak series is terrible. The first one is an alright Crash Bandicoot follow up, but Jak 2 is legit one of the worst games I've ever played.

Sony on PS3 has had most of its quirky IPs as digital only stuff. There's the thatgamecompany stuff (echochrone, flower and Journey), Unfinished Swan, Tokyo Jungle, Siren: Blood Curse and recently, CounterSpy. We get the occasional doomed at retail game like Puppeteer too.

The funny thing is how people try to defend him. We get it, "political correctness" blah blah blah. But when you're defending a confirmed mass murderer/racist because "that's how things were" you lost. Period.

I don't even think it's obliviousness, they legit don't give a shit. And they probably know admitting Columbus was a dick is a slipperly slope to admitting the founding fathers of the US were also dicks. And lord knows we can't admit that, lest we take the path towards ISIS.

The PS2 IS the best console ever. That's not even debatable imo.

The PS2 came out during a time when I was in college, so I didn't game much.  I was enjoying the college life and studying, so I don't really have a huge connection to the system.

I didn't get back into gaming until the 360.

I did pick up some PS2 games over the years, which I enjoyed:

MG2/3
Katamari 1 and 2
DQVIII
FFX
DMC3
Okami
Tekken 5
Third Strike and Alpha Anthology
Persona 3/4
Nocturne
DD1/2
VP2
Ico/SOTN

It's an amazing system, but I never got the warm fuzzies for it like I did with the SNES/Genesis, since those were during my formative gaming years.

Columbus Day is demonic and awful and shouldn't be a thing, but on the other hand, a day off :yeshrug

#Dualities

The easy solution to this internal contradiction is to just not take the day off because you think it's useless to spend a day not making money. :smug

On a related note, the Internal Revenue Service is experiencing a planned outage in part because of the holiday--which is already bullshit--but they're doing it form the 11th to the 14th even though the 15th is an electronic filing deadline. This is like that fucking bullshit teacher you had in high school who said a paper was due on one day but used one of those cheating database websites that required a 48 hour turnaround so your actual dude date was 48 hours before the stated due date. :comeon

american history is weird in its need to canonise just about anyone who did anything good for the country. it's the opposite over here in europe.

It's also further proof that the "Great Man" view of history needs to be thrown in the bushes. There is no such thing as a perfect person, and when you deify historical figures you whitewash their actions. George Washington was a slave owner. We can commend the good while acknowledging the bad. Unfortunately schools teach history based almost entirely on the Great Man principle, at least until you get to college where they simply gloss over bad shit.

The Driveclub mess is par for the course for Sony. Releasing a game with a minimum of content and still charging full price for it.  I first noticed it when I bought Infamous: SS on PS4... While it was a fun romp and I did enjoy the game, I realized that it could be beaten in a long afternoon if you didn't go through the repetitive side missions included.  Driveclub is another representation of that.  So little content and events but just enough to be considered passable.  And by the time you notice, the game's been discounted, and they've already somehow shipped 3M copies of it. There are the odd outliers that exist, but this is Sony by the most part. 

Then handful of servicable first party games released in recent memory were Heavy Rain and Uncharted 2.  Heavy Rain because it dared to be different, and U2 because even though it was by the numbers as most AAA setpiece driven games are, it was wrapped in a really nice tight package, and DAT MULTIPLAYER (in the first few weeks).  Ironic that Sony breaks records in sales while having the weakest output in recent history.  Cross-Gen LBP3 and Driveclub for big fall games  :neogaf

Ha, I had completely forgot about this. Now that explains the two Objectivists (one Canadian...wat) who post on reason's whole "innocent civilians in Iran and Russia have no rights because they're living in tyrannical states which have no rights so murdering them all is America's moral obligation" shtick.

I should switch things up for a bit and read less Communist canon and more Objectivist canon.

(Image removed from quote.)

Um.

Every Dreamcast game of note was ported to another system aside from Shenmue 1. The only stuff DC now has going for it are the fighters that HAVEN'T been ported to other systems like Project Justice, and niche games like Cosmic Smash.

I'm a huge DC fan.

But...DC isn't even in the running because every great game it had it now available on every platform under the sun.

Now, if you said Xbox, which is basically Dreamcast 2, sure.

The sheer amount of quality Sega pumped out in less than 2 years was :whew

I think the PSX/N64/Saturn era was the best. Experimentation was high. 3d gaming was new. Competition was fierce. It's hard for me to cosign PS2/DC/GC/XB because that gen was so incredibly lopsided it was ridiculous. GC isn't that great a system, DC's best games were later ported making it useless unless you wanted to play Jet Set Radio (now ported), Garou (now ported), Power Stone, or Shenmue and a few other games. It really comes down to Xbox and PS2 that generation. Saturn and N64 brought it though, in spurts. Saturn in particular. The most innovative game of the 32 bit era wasn't even on the system winner, but the competition.

That ps2 gen was an excellent swan song, though.

Nah, as much as I love the PSX/N64/Saturn gen a lot didn't age well then. Probably not the best games themselves, but everything else that was passable to pretty good at the time really doesn't even come close to reaching that mark anymore.

And what with you and ports when it comes to the dreamcast? If so, most of these consoles don't mater anymore either since you can easily emulate most games. It doesn't matter where they showed up later, what matters is where they showed up first.

Well, I find that most games from back then, aside from most action games like Fighting Force or whatever, have aged well pretty well. Games like Jet Moto, Wipeout XL, and Ridge Racer 4 wipe the snot out of modern racing games, for example. Don't even have to bring up rpgs, 2d shooters, fighting games, rail shooters, and any other assortment of arcade game type or just general what the fuck creative games like Intelligent Qube or Devil Devil. The people who often say those games haven't aged well, what games are you playing? I remember you saying FFVII hadn't aged well once, and I highly, highly disagree.

There's like this weird dividing line in Objectivists from my experience, there's people who are probably really just libertarians who agree with Rand's views on aesthetics and stuff or really like her books way too much and then you move slightly and fall off a cliff into the authoritarian cult.

It's like that EVE Online difficulty curve graphic.

Because. The best of Saturn and Genesis for the most part, are still only available on Saturn and Genesis. Other systems, that are considered the greatest of all time - nes, snes, genesis, saturn, psx, ps2 - don't have all their games ported to other systems. As soon as DC died, every system was getting Crazy Taxi and Sonic games. Maybe DC wouldn't be perceived as this if they had waited like 10 years to put DC games on other systems. But they didn't. As an example, Resident Evil 4 was originally on the GC, right? But now you can buy RE4 on wii, ps3, 360, pc, and steam. Even ps2 if you want to. Thus, it's no longer applied to be as a GC game, and when you talk about GC's place in the console history, talking about RE4 is now pointless as far as exclusives go because you can get it for any system you want now. The same is true for Dreamcast, except, this is applied to like, almost every notable game. They're no longer DC games, they're now multiplat games. Meanwhile, Rocket Knight Adventures can still only played on the Genesis. It's still, identifably, a Genesis game.
