RE: Gaming news - retrolinkx - 05-03-2015

Well, apparently Rare (with the help of 343i) are close to finishing Banjo Threeie, and are apparently going to announce something at E3.

APPARENTLY.

Just wanted to post it here because it's not really news and sort of related to the thread at hand.

^I'm feeling bittersweet about it. 


RE: Gaming news - retrolinkx - 05-05-2015

Tony freakin' Hawk Pro Skater 5 has been announced yo'

Hopefully they'll stick to the originals, but take the best parts of the later games, such as walking and making your own moves.

Lets just hope the music sticks to the 90's/mid 00's types of songs, it's be a let down if there is dubstep in the majority of songs.

What whaaaat? That mends my wounds from Silent Hills a bit. I really hope they understand people still play these games with each other on the same couch, instead of going the "multiplayer only online" route.

I just hope they keep the fun parts of it intact.

I mean, it's not hard to make a Tony Hawk game, all you need are three things.

GOOD
FREAKING
MUSIC

Gameplay that lets me be able to do mad combos with smooth transitions between each of the jumps, grinds, spine transfers and manuals.

And lastly, map creator.

Everything else is assumed, but not that important. You could have a crappy story, crappy locations, but as long as I can do mad combos while good music is flowing through my ears I'm 100% behind.

So much yes on that. I think I've been saying that a lot lately, but seriously that's awesome. The music, so long as we don't get songs like "All About That Base" I think we'l be fine.

I need split-screen on top of those to really make the game for me. I didn't buy Skate 3 because it only had online and I was super bummed that THPS HD didn't have split-screen. If it had I would actually have bought the DLC maps.

The Misadventures of Tron Bonne is on PSN as a Playstation Clasic.


What's your game Capcom? Why are you being so nice? You hate both Mega Man and good decisions which would make you a lot of money, so I know you would never put a popular Mega Man game on the PSN. So out with it. What are you planing?

Well, it has been on the Japanese PSN for almost 5 months now, so I'm wondering what took them so long. You could theoretically argue that Capcom may be trying to get a slice of the profit that re-sellers are getting from the game by offering a much cheaper, safer (as in it can't get scratched up and become unplayable) alternative, although at that point, I feel you'd be looking for a reason to demonize Capcom (not that you'd need to).

Am I happy that the game has been put up in a place the people can (legally) play it? yes. Do I think that it changes what they have done? no. One reralese does not make up for demonizing your fans for your f#ck-ups.

Still, it's a start. It's nice to get a Capcom game in both America and Japan. Now lets see them do a good Mega Man game that wasn't made by another company (I.E. Not another Street Fighter X Mega Man or Super Smash Bros).

All I can say is, fuck you Rockstar, you dumb motherfuckers. The money they are likely going to lose in sales for this, probably won't make up for banning mods so that they can later work through steam to charge for them.

No release in Europe.

It's like they don't have a PAL to tell them that they should put it in Europe.

Guys. Guys.
Universal Studios and Nintendo are teaming up to make Nintendo themed attractions for Universal theme parks!

No offense to my PAL friends (since I know this site is run by them), but I never really expected you guys to get it. I never expected America to get it either but Europe and all of the PAL regens get like half of the things America gets so you guys were even less likely to get it. That being said, we got it months after Japan did so there is still hope.
