It's like 3 posts up but Transistor and Sir You Are Being Hunted
watch a man beat super mario 64 in 22 minutes
with one hand
I was checking the other thread and closed already
Oh no now it's a new page and I just kinda look like a jerrrrrrk
Why would your eyes roll for that
The game's ending would be significantly different, worse imo, if they hadn't done so
And then Danny bets a dollar on Drew dying in a section and it suddenly becomes intense
Cheap games at least!
In assassin's creed 3, Connor comes from a culture that believes that it is deeply wrong to kill an animal and then not use its body
Once you kill an animal you're not allowed to leave the area until you finish skinning it

Lem Doolittle, the closest thing to a villain that the game has had so far, offers him a job at his whiskey distillery, and offers him a glass of the whiskey they make
As you try to move the mouse cursor, it slowly drags itself onto the whiskey, and won't move until you click on it

The Wolf Among Us does this even better, but it's a little too soon to get into any kind of detail on that

I didn't dick around on the highway because the map just felt really weird to me.
But I did explore around the other areas and didn't just beeline towards exists. Took me like 45 minutes for act 1?
I can't really be too impressed with gimmick runs that use hands these days

that sounds really neat
is there a way to place that game on ps3 or ps4?
At the very least, if you find directions to some place off the critical path you should check it out
For instance in act 1 you can get directions to the shop that Shannon works at and it's a terrific scene
Not worth restarting act 1 over but something to keep in mind for the future

For the PS3 there is an HD collection of it and ICO. ICO is a little rougher around the edges, imo, but is also considered a classic.
I was actually trying to find the shop but I got lost. I really can't follow the directions they give me in that game to save my life. I hate driving directions.
sweet, thanks @inquisitor
Okay @Inquisitor I grabbed it. What's your steam name, I'll add ya.
What? I'm pretty sure I've done that.
Or maybe it was just snares and they would eventually just free themselves or be killed by someone else.
Samus is corrupted by Phazon early on and fitted with a device that lets her channel Phazon into her body to essentially gain superpowers. Doing so makes you WAY more powerful and is initially perfectly safe to do (though you have to pay in health to use it). Then as you progress through the game and encounter sources of Phazon (in scripted events, not just randomly), you lose the ability to have the health you didn't shoot at the enemy refunded. Then you get a time limit on it. Then if you don't exhaust all your Phazon within the time limit (which is shorter), you die. Then you can be forcefully put into Hypermode by certain enemy attacks. Then at the end of the game you're permanently stuck in Hypermode and have to hurry and constantly be shooting and finding ways of exhausting Phazon to avoid death.
Every step of this process makes you more powerful, but also makes the power more dangerous to use. It's the best gameplay representation of having a corrupting power I've seen in a game.
like the fight against the sorrow or liquid's speech at the end of MGS1

THAT'S the sort of thing I wanted to see.
Because that would be the one really cool thing about that version if that's the case.
I kinda love that Vinny Caravella, the most upbeat positive guy in the world, the only games he outright hates are the super innocuous peaceful ones
You would not think that would be the kind of guy that hates Flower and Animal Crossing, but boy oh boy does he hate them
Hey what about the end of fuckin' Brothers?
I'd played some Animal Crossing before, but it wasn't until Vinny played it that I knew it had that facebook-type "come back tomorrow" stuff
that would annoy me just as much
It would be nice if that had any chance of working... sigh.
I read about this yesterday. I...don't know what to think or feel or how to respond. I think Temkin's response was about as good as a response gets in that situation, but...gah. It almost doesn't mean anything. None of this means much of anything because neither side can prove anything so the only assured result of the situation is that internet assholes will harass the accuser if they can determine who it is.
The second tweet takes on an ominous tone with this context added
i don't think he did it
but we will never fucking know
It would be really nice if our culture didn't implicitly discourage women from reporting this shit immediately.
