    Kuncha Krinch sounds like one of those ripoff candies you find at a mom and pop store in the middle of nowhere

    There really is a need for more cute asian chicks as protaganists in video games.

    Eve Online is a terrible game, but I used to play, for the lulz!

    Personally I think cute black chicks are the most under-represented. Maybe a few middle-eastern and Indian girls can be tossed in now and again as well.

    Now that physics and procedural environments are getting complex enough, I think it's about time they did a Kourier game. Fighting your way through heavy traffic with a magnetic harpoon gun on a skateboard. Delivering packages in a dynamic city, trying to find routes through the Burbclaves you have alliances with and avoiding those you've pissed off recently, trying not to get on the Mafia's bad side. Good times.

    That's the game I want to play
    I want a game with multiple paths, not just multiple but almost unlimited, where it's you making a mad dash to your destination with dudes on your ass
    Kind of like Assassin's Creed, when you're making your escape after killing a dude
    You just gotta get somewhere safe, how you do it isn't really important

    Yes exactly
    My favorite part of HL2?
    When you get the suit and start running through the canals, and it feels like a giant chase scene
    I love that feeling

    That was really good. Especially when you'd go up on a rooftop and bullets would just start rattling off the concrete all around you. Extremely effective.

    Procedural city generation, target location and multiple sub goals, obstacles randomly placed.

    It's like The Club, but you do time trials in multiplayer to see who can get the highest score. Big jumps and shit earn combo points.

    Peter Parkour?

    Comic joke
    Spidey is getting his ass kicked by a chick that does parkour and she says something about having the "parkour luck"
    And simultaneously everyone groaned

    You misunderstand me
    Freak is a villain who was mutated when he smoked some experiment that he thought was meth
    And he gets pissed at the guy whose stash he thought it was and goes after him and kills him
    When Spidey shows up this fucking thing is just standing there smoking a fucking pipe
    It was the dumbest fucking arc and I want to light Bob Gale on fire

    His only motivation is he wants meth
    He is a terrible fucking character on the same level as Carnage and I hate Bob Gale for writing that story at all

    In case it isn't clear, I am being somewhat facetious. It does sound like an extremely stupid arc, like how almost every TV show does an anti-drug episode and it is almost always really, really stupid.

    like how every cop show has done the one where they investigate a goth vampire club or a web site that involves death and it's always like "www.clicktokill.web"

    It wasn't even an anti-drug thing
    I don't think
    I just think Bob Gale is incapable of writing something that isn't pure shit
