Re: Double Dragon (plus forerunners and successors)

It's on PSN!? I didn't know that. Definitely going to have to grab that. Which version is it?

Re: Half Life 3

Haha there is egg well and truly on my face.

I'm going to rephrase that - I don't think Half Life is relevant in today's gaming scene.

I'm such an idiot, I wasn't even thinking of Portal, TF or LFD when I said that.

Re: Resident Evil

I found the first Dead Space far too long and quite boring. Loved the sequel though, one of the best games of this gen.

Re: WRC 3

Yeah actually it does look promising. Would be nice to have a proper rally game back again. I loved Dirt but it was pure arcade. Definitely going to grab the demo.

Do we though? I mean, what are they playing at really? Their commitment to the promised episodic gaming revolution is laughable. I don't think Valve are relevant in todays gaming scene.

Re: New PS3 (Slimmer still: 12GB & 500GB models)

I might grab one. My original fat model is getting a bit long in the tooth, is quite noisy too.

Re: WRC 3

Haven't tried it yet. Was a bit put off after the AWFUL floaty handling of WRC 2. I loved DIRT 3 though so I might give it a try. I don't think the first Colin McRae game on the PS1 has ever been beaten to be honest. You could go so far off the actual tracks on that game it was brilliant!

Re: Double Dragon (plus forerunners and successors)

I used to love the scrolling beat 'em up. I still play them on MAME from time to time. Classics like Final Fight and Vigilante, and also stuff like Golden Axe (which has aged TERRIBLY!) too. My son, who is six in a few weeks, absolutely loved the Turtles In Time game on XBLA. We've played Streets Of...

Re: Resident Evil

Downloaded the demo on PS3, but not played it yet. Doesn't sound promising. Probably wont get a chance till the weekend, but I imagine I'll be back here them spitting venom all over the screen because of another ruined franchise!

Nostalgia overload: GamesMaster, Bad Influence and more!

I've been off work the last two days and found myself wondering if there were any old games shows on YouTube. This guy has uploaded them all! http://youtube.com/user/DynamiteHeaddy It's awesome! Gamesmaster, Bad Influence, even Knightmare and more! I'm sure most of us remember early 90's Channel 4 c...

Does anyone else keep getting logged out?

This is getting kind of frustrating, but I was wondering if it was a problem my end. So to speak. But I keep getting logged out of the forum, I always tick the box to 'log in automatically every time' but every time I come back to the forum I'm logged back out if I've not been back for a few hours. ...

Re: Jet Set Radio HD

I also still have this on the Dreamcast but haven't played it for ages. I downloaded the demo on PS3 and thought it was awful, though. Real nostalgia shatterer! Controls were terribly twitchy, camera made my head dizzy! I deleted it after ten minutes.

Band pimp - some videos if you like

I've been playing in this covers band for a couple of years, we only gig 4-5 times a year and tend to just mess around at practice for laughs most the time. Here are a few videos of us. They're all a little rough around the edges and full of mistakes / bum notes, but whatever. 70KW-j1ridI _Bg-YMKNtb...

Think it's a 360 exclusive, which is out today.
That's a bit weird seeing as the original was a PSN exclusive for so long.

Re: Nintendo Wii U - Thursday, 3pm GMT. Details!

Last ever Nintendo non-handheld console? I think maybe.

I wish they'd go the Sega way and give up on hardware and make games only. Mario Galaxy on PS3 would be awesome.
