Re: Whatcha Been Playing?

I've given up on the Plague Knight DLC for Shovel Knight. I love the idea of using a new character, remixing the levels and adding small story beats to make a whole new campaign. I also went into this knowing that Plague Knight controlled very differently than Shovel Knight and I had vowed to stick ...

I listened to this podcast about a week ago by downloading it off the podcast feed on iTunes. You can also get it here:

Re: The Nintendo news and discussion thread

We want gaming to be bigger, be broader, be more diverse, have more mass market appeal, allow for more niche titles and so on. This has to be part of that. Ultimately if it's a business model you don't like, then don't buy into it. I can assure you that the players that play multiples of titles lik...

Re: Games completed 2017

Super Mario Land 2 (GameBoy / 3DS Virtual Console) Well worth playing through this again just to remind yourself just how incredible a technical achievement it was at the time. It's got a personality all of it's own, clearly inspired by Super Mario World in terms of a world map, but with a unique s...

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?

I'm replaying the main campaign of Shovel Knight. I wanted to play it again before moving on to the Plague of Shadows DLC and the upcoming Spectre of Torment DLC (out in April). I forgot how great this game was! It's really, really good! The mechanics are fun and I love the world they've created. Th...

Re: Reactive music in games

I'm playing through Skyward Sword at the moment and there are some really good examples of reactive music in that game. In the bazaar in Skyloft, there is the normal shop music. But as you approach the different shopkeepers, it transitions into a different version of that shop music. The repairman's...

Re: Virginia

Bought this on a Steam Sale, but unfortunately my laptop can't really run it. I'm going to see if I can borrow someone else's to play through this (mine is over six years old). The music (that I can listen to while the framerate chugs) is beautiful!

Did you ever play Persona Q? I'm a big Persona fan, so I picked up even though I had heard it was more of an EO game. Is it representative of the series?

Re: The Nintendo news and discussion thread

As you say Gallo, no word on it yet so could still happen! Fair point, so fingers crossed!. The longer they go without saying anything though (both on this and on whether or not Virtual Console purchases will carry over), the less faith I have that it will turn out all right. I'm rooting for Ninten...

Re: The Nintendo news and discussion thread

I'm not a Wii U owner, so while the greedy gamer in me would love to see a much busier release schedule on Switch (it would also breed bit of confidence that devs are actually supporting the thing!), a combo of Zelda, Mario Kart, and Splatoon should do me just fine until Mario turns up. As a fellow...

Re: Games you like more than the consensus

Remember not to use "underrated" so Leon doesn't delete the thread! I don't want to speak for Leon, obviously, but here's my take: In contrast to observing a consensus, to me, claiming a game to be "underrated" (or overrated) gives connotations of the consensus being wrong. For ...
