F-Zero Maximum Velocity (GBA) sucks balls. The controls are horrendous. The original SNES controls are more direct, which is definitely better. !vgp

!vgp so I bought Gotham City Imposters. its a fun game with nearly endless combinations for loadout slots. HOWEVER even getting into a game is another matter whatsoever. getting dropped by the server is a more then common issue and finding players in matchmaking can be a chore with the ammount of connection drops from the servers I've found. hopefully they patch that. other then that its a fantastic game

!vgp No, seriously - "Linux Tycoon." Build and manage a Linux distro in a game. 9_6

@scribus I could see that being very interesting actually. There's a *lot* of politics involved.
-
@toksyuryel I'm curious, I admit. Maybe a bit more curious about why it seemed like something worth doing, but also curious to try it out.
-
@scribus Well I'm assuming you meant creating a distro and overseeing its development, rather than installing an existing one and just playing sysadmin. The former is what would make for an interesting game.

!vgp wtf Nintendo! I go out of my way this weekend to get a network cable to hook my Wii to the internets only to come home frustrated finding out it has no network cable port. so now I have to find a LAN adapter just so I can make use of the 4000 Nintendo Wii points I bought! and I'm having a hell of a time finding one. no luck yet. really wish I had help obtaining one in my town. so I only want to tell Nintendo to STOP BEING DUMB!

GUH, no wonder I never beat #Crystalis before, crummy hit-detection, changing swords every 18 steps because one monster is only weak against fire, the next against wind, back to fire. . . !vgp

@redenchilada I wpuld but on vacation
-
@bitshift Pff, I've only played it once ever. That'd be fine.
-
@redenchilada In that case, I'll be on shortly (need to get a drink first).

Huzzah, Bastion won the Steam sale community choice vote. !vgp

@redenchilada If I had any, I would, since more people need to play it.

I feel like I should point out the trick to saving the maximum amount on Steam sales, just in case anybody still didn't know it: never buy something unless it's a daily deal, a flash deal, or the last day of the sale. Anything else leaves you open to the possibility of the game you bought becoming cheaper on a daily/flash deal later. !vgp
Friday, 13-Jul-12 00:41:36 UTC from web-
@bitshift Not to mention the possibility of somebody gifting you the game.
-
Also, since there's voting this year for what should go on flash sales, keep an eye on that - you might be able to increase your chances of a game you want getting cheap. !vgp
-
@toksyuryel That too.

Oh hey, Spacechem is super-cheap on Steam right now. Not that I need a copy, but I would definitely recommend taking a look if you haven't already. !vgp

@toksyuryel Not yet, no. No reason I couldn't fire it up now, though, since it was either that or do some more !Brogue.

@bitshift I got two~

So, I bought Wrath of the Lamb for The Binding of Isaac. Decided to try it. Ended up beating the game, which I hadn't done before previously. !vgp

!vgp !zelda so... Snowhead is MM's Water temple. Might just be because my first time playing, but it certainly felt like it.

@ecmc If you think Snowhead is bad, wait until the Great Bay Temple.

!vgp I would play it. http://ur1.ca/9qvdk

Well. After you get past the stupid levels in Nitronic Rush's Hardcore section, the rest are surprisingly fun! Of particular note is abusing the endless boost in the last course. !vgp

@redenchilada Oh hey, Nitronic Rush. Haven't played that in a while, but I did like it when I did. I should reinstall it. :O
-
@bitshift Someone showed it to me. A couple of the later levels are really dumb, but at least the last one's fun to fly through. :/

!vgp Spec Ops: The Line looks like another generic shooter. All the commercials make it look otherwise. I'm pretty torn.
Tuesday, 03-Jul-12 04:38:16 UTC from StatusNet Android-
@carcino !vgp Instead of the typical "Buck yeah, American war hero!" storyline of most MMS games, Spec Ops takes the "War is hell" approach and really drives it home. || You are sent on what initially seems like a rescue mission, only to find yourself caught in an active war zone with no idea which side (if either) is "the bad guys", and having to defend yourself against both. || There are cutscenes -- perhaps a few more than strictly necessary -- to drive the story forward, but most of the story is told through in-game chatter between yourself and your teammates. || The game also allows you to make choices (with consequences) through the gameplay, rather than through any RPG-style dialogue. "Do I shoot this guy, or let him walk away?"; "Do I use this rocket launcher to clear the room of hostiles, or do I try to find another way around?"; "Do I go in guns blazing? oops, I just gunned down a civilian who was running for cover."
-
@puzzlemint @carcino !vgp In short, Spec Ops is a shades-of-grey style game that does its best to make you feel like crap. Which is refreshing, in a morbid kind of way.
-
@puzzlemint Oh fun.

!vgp Metal Arms: Glitch in the System. PLAY IT, PLEASE PLAY IT.

!vgp Okay, trying to get an elevator to connect between two parts of the level might actually be easier if I do it manually instead of getting the one from No Mercy...

@thatonepony I should go.
-
@thatonepony I gotta crash or whatever. Think about mangoes.
-
@carcino Yeah, I probably should too, it's almost half past 1 in the morning and I was supposed to be asleep about an hour ago. That was fun, though XD

!vgp Been hearing that Skyrim's Dawnguard DLC is causing a lot of trouble with attacks on towns (As is my understanding, vampires can attack towns/cities without the player knowing and easily slaughter MANY NPCs). Can anyone really say how bad this is? I've got the PC version, so the DLC's not out for me yet, but when it is I'd rather know how many ghost towns I might be dealing with.
Sunday, 01-Jul-12 04:23:40 UTC from web-
@thunderdash !vgp Modders will fix it *shrug*
-
@puzzlemint !vgp Mmmm. Yeah, this is true, but I'm not entirely sure if I want to buy a DLC that needs modding to prevent serious gameplay consequences...

Welp, after a few minutes of experimentation, I can confirm that which I think everyone already knew: Source Filmmaker is confusing. !vgp
