Metroid prime wa sgenius
Monday, 14-Jul-14 00:09:02 UTC from web-
@metaltao I would redash that but the "sgenius" is bothering me too much. I agree with that opinion nonetheless though.
-
@northernnarwhal Metroid was genius!
-
@metaltao Metroid had one of the most graceful transitions from 2D to 3D that I've ever seen. Prime is a masterpiece.
-
@northernnarwhal *hugs* So many people are Metroid fans are here!
-
@metaltao I just love Prime's design so much. I love immersive the world is, and how it doesn't shove it's story down your throat but tells it through creatures and items you encounter. That way it's up to you to interpret and extrapolate if you want to find out just what exactly is going on.

@northernnarwhal I love how if you cross the references in each of the creatures to historical logs you find scattered around, IT GIVES YOU INSITE INTO THE CAUSES OF THE CHANGES OF CREATURES! :D
-
@metaltao Yeah, it was surprisingly detailed but also minimalistic in its story and inhabitants.
-
@northernnarwhal I personally loved the game play! THE jumping was so realistic! I mean! I felt my body move to Samus when I first played it! It was amazing! The only other game that made me feel that way was Rage...
-
@northernnarwhal I should play it now!
-
@metaltao Metroid Prime was just an all around well made game, well designed and well executed.
-
@northernnarwhal It made 2D to 3D look Easy!
-
@metaltao So did Mario
-
@scoot True, but mario was always jumping on people heads, IT WAS FUN AS HELL!
-
@scoot Don't forget Zelda
-
@northernnarwhal YES! But I have never played a Zelda game in my life *cres*
-
@metaltao Play Link to the Past this very instant.
-
@metaltao It was neat that after Super Metroid the series just disappeared for a bit then got picked up by an at the time unheard of development team for a 3D installment and they totally own it.
-
@thewaifutyphoon But But... metroid D:
-
@thewaifutyphoon Or Wind Waker
-
@metaltao THIS VERY INSTANT.
-
@scoot LttP's much easier to emulate.
-
@northernnarwhal Basically Nintendo makes 2D to 3D look easy
-
@thewaifutyphoon Where D: WHERE DO I GET IT!
-
@metaltao Seriously? You're missing out BIG TIME man. Zelda is a fantastic series, you'd probably like it too.
-
@metaltao Emulate it

@thewaifutyphoon Yeah but in an ideal world I'd recommend Wind Waker as it was the first Zelda I really clicked with
-
@scoot obviously, but for convenience's sake I just recommended LttP.
-
@scoot But but... chrome book is papayas D:
-
@scoot Yeah, I can't think of single Nintendo series that had a tough time going from 2D to 3D.
-
@metaltao it should be able to handle a SNES emulator fine. Just not much more than that
-
@thewaifutyphoon Where can I get one?
-
@metaltao You... Have a Chromebook?
-
@scoot Wind Waker is still my favourite in the franchise. It has so much personality and the cel shading is really gorgeous.
-
@metaltao check your DMs
-
@scoot *sighs* I was screwgled
-
@northernnarwhal Oh yes, it's so fun to play and the world is fun to explore and it feels vast
-
@thewaifutyphoon just got it and I WAS GREETED BY A VOICE ASKING IF I WAS A BOY OR A GIRL D: http://rainbowdash.net/url/769054
-
@metaltao wtf? Neither of the links I sent you go there
-
@metaltao what the hell is that

@scoot I DON'T KNOW D: @thewaifutyphoon This was a pop up add
-
@scoot The combat is really tight as well, I love the counter system with the A button. Also, the soundtrack is phenomenal.
-
@metaltao ew, ads. Just use the second link I gave you.
-
@northernnarwhal aaaaaa wind wakers soundtrack!~ so perfect!
-
@thewaifutyphoon I know... It worked the first time but this cam up in another window
-
@thewaifutyphoon OH ANd how do I play in browser?
-
@metaltao I dunno, I never used it. Just know that it works through Flash or something.
-
@thewaifutyphoon Ok.... Because I can't open .exe files
-
@scoot That Molgera battle theme is the best thing ever :D
-
@northernnarwhal That credits song tho
-
@scoot Oh god yes, and the title card music. Sometimes as a kid I wouldn't even press start and just listen to it.
-
@northernnarwhal I still do that
-
@scoot I have the whole Wind Waker soundtrack on my computer and sometimes just toss it on and listen to because it's very lovely music
-
@northernnarwhal As do I
-
@scoot That's awesome! Also, what other OSTs do you really like?
-
@northernnarwhal Transistor and Bastion come to mind instantly, as with Spyro 3
-
@scoot I haven't played Transistor yet (though I plan to) but I am familiar with Bastion and it's a lovely soundtrack. That game was really fantastic all around though, it had great gameplay and story too.
-
@northernnarwhal Transistor's soundtrack might be better than Bastions. The vocal tracks certainly are anyway, plus the game itself is REALLY good! You should give it a shot
-
@scoot I loved Bastion so I definitely plan on playing it sometime in the future, hopefully soon too.
-
@northernnarwhal this bastion looks cool
-
@mushi It's a really beautifully designed indie RPG, I highly recommend if you're a fan of the genre
-
@northernnarwhal i do like, but it is probably computer only and my computer tents to shut itself down all the time
-
@mushi If that's the case you might have a tough time running it unfortunately
-
@northernnarwhal yeah, might not play this one, then
-
@mushi What other systems do you have?
-
@northernnarwhal Do you have a game cube? An atari?
-
@northernnarwhal ps2, game cube, DS, psp, wiiu, 360 abd ps3
-
@metaltao Yes to GC and no to Atari

@mushi Didn't you say your psp was broken?
-
@northernnarwhal yeah, one button of it
-
@mushi I remember my friend replaced a broken button on one of his xbox controllers with lego piece, but it was still a bit clunky
-
@northernnarwhal the button is still there, but it is not working :|
-
@metaltao I NEED TO PLAY THAT AGAIN.
-
@boombaboom I KNOW RIGHT?!
IT IS SOO FUN! -
@mushi Oh, that sucks :L That happened to the R button on my brother's 3DS
-
@metaltao time to find my gamecube.
-
@northernnarwhal he could fix that?
-
@boombaboom i HAVE IT HERE!
-
@mushi Not fully, but he got it working again. It just has its hiccups every now and then.
-
@metaltao MAIL IT TO M SO ICAN PLAY PRIME
-
@northernnarwhal usually with that you can blow straight into the button (yeah, basically kissing it) and it would start working again. It's what I do with my DSi.
-
@techdisk That's how my brother got his to start working again, but it would still mes up every now and then
-
@techdisk You blow on it?
-
@metaltao Oh yes. I put my mouth right on that button and blow
-
@techdisk Um... Go on?
