Nero was awesome. But that’s just because I can’t play Dante for shit on the Xbox controller.
I’d fuck that bitch so HOOORD
Lol, bro, you dump money at the arcade on a regular basis. I don’t think you’re one to talk about justification of price.
He plays shit as well as quality. He has alot better understanding of the industry and game design as a whole than 99% of this site. He can see the good in a bad thing, which takes alot more intelligence than saying “shit sucks” .
I have ALOT more respect for someone like him who is well versed in many games than some close minded asshole who thinks 2 games are the only shit that’s ever gonna be worthwhile (BTW not saying that’s you at all, as far as fighters go you’re the poster boy for playing lots of games, and I definitely respect you for that)
… Dante has a boner?
So yeah, the last game I’ve played in an arcade was SFIV recently. Before that, I have yet to even step foot in an arcade since 2002. And I actually get satisfaction from that because I’m playing against people for multiple hours straight and only waste at most, about $20 in a night of playing.
Heavenly Sword was like paying for a hooker.
I wouldn’t say he has a full understanding of the industry at all. You’d have to be in the industry to know that.
I can see good in a bad thing, as well. I saw the good they tried to do with Ass Crease, but they failed so horribly. The game is much more of a chore than what it should have been. It tried to be GTA when it should have been something else completely. The AI was horrible and there were some really bad exploits in the game(like throw xx slash which kills in ONE hit while they’re on the ground and they can’t block the hit).
The game was just horribly designed and had too many flaws. To be good. Of course, nobody listens. And you know it’s really hard to make up a good case for Ass Crease. The game was just tedious instead of fun.
Another one was where you could start an attack and than hold RT. This changes the action dial to “counter attack” and if you keep mashing the button, you’ll continue the combo but automatically counter anything that tries to hit you. Made every fight so easy 
It’s still retarded as fuck to tell somebody what’s not worth THEIR money when they can afford it. You wouldn’t appreciate some whore tryin to tell you the anime and video games you spend your money on is in no way worth YOUR money. It’s just ignorant as fuck. I hate using that word, but it is.
This is all well and good, but why are you raggin on a dude for playing EVERYTHING? That’s so irrational.
If you’re bringing up Assassin’s Creed because he likes it or something, okay… Yeah, I couldn’t stand that game either, but obviously if he says he likes it, he’s found enjoyment somewhere where we failed to do so. Big deal.
just saw the trailer on ign omg this game looks so good
I watch the Trailer for 2 time and i am soo getting this game:rock:
Subscribes
I’m getting this day of.No questions asked
About DMC4, the game was awesome… until the second half used the same levels, and more importantly the same bosses, over and over and fucking over. I’ve played Capcom games that switch characters mid-game before (RE Code Veronica immediately comes to mind), and they didn’t recycle shit. The level design was incredibly barren to begin with, and the non-enemy obstacles were a bore. Playing through God of War and Ninja Gaiden Sigma really underscored how lame DMC4’s non-combat sections were.
But gotdamn, the combat was fun as hell, and almost made up for the recycling and awful level design.
Damn I still don’t have dmc4 or ng2. How do they stack up compared to dmc1/3 (I liked both equally) and ng sigma?
While we’re at it why don’t we make this the “official one player action game” thread lol.
As much of a DMC fanboy I am, you actually bring up a really good point here. As much as I really don’t like GOW, you’re right, the non combat segments of it completely shame DMC. I think Ninja Gaiden really did the non combat segments best, no contest.
I think the big reason why the first DMC still gets mad love even after having it’s combat system totally owned by 3 and 4 is the fact that it’s the only DMC that still feels fun even when you’re not fighting.
I LOVED 4, but I still like 3 better. I dunno, I liked the story and characters more, the weapons more, and the cutscenes were of course godlike. 3 also just had more content. Still, 4 is sexy as hell and ultimately you need to play it.
I was pretty dissapointed with NG2 personally. It just felt too flashy, never really felt accomplished pulling stuff off. It also just seemed to have completely lost all it’s charm. Just felt like a sell out to me to appeal to the God of War kiddies.
If it turned out to be Trish in disguise then it’d be ok because she’s an established character and familiarity makes me comfortable.
What looks mediocre about this game? Will you say this after seeing a trailer of DMC5? Women get fanservice characters all the time but men can’t? Raiden nude scene.
I already know this game will get labeled as sexist. Every female lead has to be respectable you know? Only weird people play games with women that are arbitrarily sexual, I only play “serious” games.
But did Alicia ever randomly straddle her broom/gun thing or do anything blatantly sexual in game? That’s a serious question because I couldn’t bare to play that game past the stage where “Max Cougar” introduces himself. I agree that Bullet Witch could have been way better. But going on your above logic, you could say the same for a large amount of games which would make your statement dubious.
The gun shoes are intentionally absurd, so calling it stupid is redundant. Do any of you think that gun shoes were thought up with practicality in mind? This has precedent. I remember someone putting a chainsaw on their nub of an arm. I remember at least two people with a machine gun as a peg leg.
Some people are also hating because they think every game has to set an example and push the medium forward as an art form. Not every movie has to be The Color Purple or Forrest Gump. there are also some Tropic Thunders and Dumb & Dumbers. This wasn’t a problem a few years ago, but now people are all pompous and shit, reviewing games with a monocle.
And that’s why I don’t trust reviews, nobody is objective anymore.
Get rid of her gunshoes and make her a respectable woman and this game we’ve only seen a trailer of will be good(because it’s bad at the moment). Better yet, turn her into Dante.
I’m assuming this is targeted to me. You’re right, hypothetically ANY game can be ANYTHING. What I meant was all you really had to do to make Bullet With a good game was tweak the controls and the magic system (and possible the default difficulty. I just remember the second stage being fucking ridiculous. I almost quite on that stage, too) and you have something really solid.
Anyways, the rest of your post is pure truth
EDIT: Oh and if I said “way better”, I specifically meant it could have gone from “bad” to “good” or even “great” with moderate tweaks.
Lol, sorry. You said Bullet Witch could have been better and AlphaDragoon said it sucked, so I unconsciously combined them.
This part was aimed at AlphaDragoon:
“But going on your above logic, you could say the same for a large amount of games which would make your statement dubious.”
Why in god’s name would you want to play as a fat bitch dressed in a full body knapsack. RS got it right, people take videogames way too seriously sometimes.
Enjoy the hot chick slaughtering shit, you really think there’s something wrong with that?
Im hype about this game, the chick being overzeliously sexy just helps. The minds behind the making of this game make it enough to warrant a purchase im sure.
but even then, if the game turns out to be shit, i wont buy it. A hot " umm aren’t i so sexyyy " marketing scheme isnt enough for me to buy a shit game.
Red Ninja
Golden Axe : Beast Rider * you know this is going to be shit *
Sudeki
Magna Carta or whatever the fuck its called * SRSLY , i played the first 10 minutes of this game and thats all i could stand, the voice acting and script was complete dick *
DoA Extreme Volleyball Series
ECT.
hate hate hate
I don’t know man I thought it was pretty funny how that guy was complaining about the girl being straight up fanservice.
Like it’s any different than say, the Tales of games. Those games are like one big fan cum dumpster. They stuff as many anime cliches/anime fan stiffy pleasing characters as they possibly can in each game.
Tales of Symphonia was my first tales game and the only sexual character i saw was the ninja girl. But she never got naked or anything close to that. the game was pretty tame.
but i can see alot of anime cliche’s in Tales of Symphonia. didnt bother me though.
Maybe I’m just insane, but this character reminds me a bit of Testament from Guilty Gear. Mainly the air combos and traps/enemies staying in place while you hit them, followed by something attacking out of a portal like Testament’s poisoning overdrive. And Testament looks like a girl, too.
…but anyway, the character and other stuff looks ridiculous, but the gameplay looks like it could be a lot of fun.
Fan service doesn’t have to be straight up sex, it can be a pretty general term nowadays. Incidentally, character designs in both of these games look like hot steaming shit.
