Re: Whatcha Been Playing?
Does the intro still have a German voiceover, despite being a japan-made game set in Romania? :lol: I played Rondo through emulation back in the day, and it truly made it feel like I was playing the gaming equivalent of an obscure bootleg VHS tape It does, but it's a different voice from the PCE fr...

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?
Wait theres a version of Rondo of Blood in the PSP game all along?? Dang, now I might have to track it down again. The 3D graphics did absolutely nothing for me at the time. Yeah, in the 3D re-make there are a number of hidden cool things to unlock. The main two that always grab the headlines are t...

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?
So I persevered and finished Castlevania: Harmony of Dissononsssencyett https://i.imgur.com/rRh4FiR.jpg?1 Ended up at 197.2%, without doing hardly any sniffing around. I'll leave it there now I think. Better that Portrait of Ruin for me but miles behind the Sorrow games. ........and having a really ...

Yeah, I do thanks mate.

Re: Retro gaming
Nice pickups! Have you played Rondo before? If not, I'd definitely recommend playing one of the original releases first if you can (the Wii VC version is fantastic). It's surprisingly cinematic and really benefits from being played on a TV. I've not mate no and I've been looking forward to it for a...

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?
That circle of "things" was one of my favourite tools in the game. There is something delightful about lazily standing next to an enemy and watching it crumble. Wicked man, thanks for your post. Seems like the weird navigation aspect isn't something I'm alone with then - which is nice. I'...

Re: Videogame News
Yeah, that's definitely true. A lot of the dialogue boils down to lore/world building too which was new and exciting first time round, less so when you already know it all. Easily my most favourite Sci-fy narrative in games. Blew me away massively when I first played it, less so when I had to go ba...

Re: Videogame News
They're both great games but there's something about the atmosphere of ME1 that it's sequels didn't quite capture. Completely. I just find that having played through every single mission of that game, the impact of the story and characters has a lot less impact the second time around - I find it ha...

Re: Retro gaming
Finally I managed to win a PAL, complete copy of the Dracula X Chronicles on the PSP for a fair price. Which means I can finally use that PSP I repaired a few months back. Also picked up another Saturn controller, this time a Japanese one as it's lush. Probably give that a deep clean and start using...

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?
(It’s one of the things you don’t pick up on watching real football if you’ve only ever watched it on tv and not in person, the players are talking to each other *all the time*) It's so essential. Often it's not even tactical just encouraging and bullshit most of the time. There's a huge responsibi...

Re: Videogame News
Wow, I love those games so much. Not sure how much, or if it should even be advised, to go back and play Mass Effect though - that was rough in a lot pf places back then and for me, got pulled into legend status by its characters and story - which could be enough to get people to play it mind. But t...

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?
I have one more plan of action tonight, then if I don't get anywhere, or get a better understanding of any direction, I'm done with it. Well it worked and I ended up playing for a few more hours last night making great progress and things flowing as they should. I will continue to stick with it. No...

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?
Try the other DS games next! The only one I don’t own, or have played, is Order of Ecclesia. I’m kind of mopping up the games in the series I’ve not played now. I was rather looking forward to DISSONANCE and while I feel it started strongly and has some cool hidden secrets and things, the castle la...

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?
I've been playing Castlevania: Harmony of Dissidence on my trusty GBA-SP and while the game starts very strong it gets to a critical point then suddenly turns into a vague, confusing, maze. Like almost all of the Igarashi games, you reach a point where the layout of the castle changes, becomes, flip...

Re: Our Patreon
Not ideal but since my issues with the list not updating on the Apple Podcast app, I just play it straight from the Patreon app.
Always an option.
