Personally I loved it. It would have been a small fraction as fun as it was if it were in 3rd person.
I'd vote for HAWX actually, because that could be funny.
but you could see your feet in mirror's edge
But trying to get that Pacifist achievement could be stupidly hard sometimes.
Also, it looks like Recettear is winning. I may do that one this evening and JC2 tomorrow.
You don't like Yoshi's Island?
Yeah, on second thought a RPG wouldn't work that well
oh god I can't imagine not beating up all the cops
especially on the big orange indoor tower where you have to rush to the bottom to reach faith's sister
there are a million guys in there and half of them have those heavy machine guns
Well, no, you can beat them up.
You just can't shoot them.
Which is hard enough, honestly, because some of the timings on the disarm counterattacks are pretty bizarre.
So many checkpoints failed because I just could not press the button at the right time and got hit in a head with a rifle butt over and over.
What's a Yoshi??
I'm sorry Kadith, we can't be friends until you play Yoshi's Island.
yeah in that are specifically I have to do the time slowing thing on the first guy with a gun and after disarming him I shoot my way down picking up new and bigger guns on the way
I realize you're supposed to kung fu but some of the disarms are really hard and so many people shooting you at once
Looks like you'll have to buy me a gameboy then.
The SNES version.
As it is though it is such a brilliant little game
Heh you can get an SNES clone for cheapish nowadays.
Not sure about the cart.
Holy crap.
I usually don't have that until I run out of things to build and have all my cities pumping out wealth.
Plus it's one of those games a few people remember and remembered as being strangely fun. So it's a hit with collectors.
like, the evolution game?
EDIT: oh
Recettear is great, you should play it.
Game play is solid, and actually fairly challenging; it is the first game I have consistently failed at. I need to go back and play it some more.
mostly when to go in dungeons and when to get stuff from the town market to sell at a minor profit
food is definitely the biggest seller early on, load up on stuff like beef bowls. after that clothing followed by weapons are usually the easiest to sell.
definitely a point in the game where if you don't have the dungeons unlocked you're fucked
so it's worth delving just to open them up
I haven't unlocked everyone (I have louis, spear girl, bow girl and magic boy) but she seems head and shoulders above the rest

i'm thinking i am mostly through it. i've discovered how to make the monsters stand down and when to just run the fuck away. plus there was a pretty cool cut scene, so at least the game stays visually interesting.
wait what?!
I really hope touch screens are not the future. I only use the stylus on the DS in a few games where's really just a pseudo mouse.
At no point in the game do you have to dungeon crawl. I beat it purely buying and selling.
