I played through the Harley Quinn's Revenge DLC for Arkham City. It was alright, pretty good but I don't know if it was that great. I did like the parts with Robin and the final cutscene though.

Nepsotic 05-30-2012 06:56 AM

I completed the Portal2 DLC, it was brilliant. Definitely the hardest course though. And I loved the final cutscene.

Fuck off

Why's that?

Nepsotic 05-30-2012 11:38 AM

As in 'no way'.

How how how

A PSone emulator and a ROM. Simple.
I actually had a ROM from my copy of the game, but had to get a US one, since mine was PAL.

Disgruntled Intern 05-30-2012 11:51 AM

MineCraft 360 edition and I started a new character in Skyrim. My argonian thief/assassin/ranger was fun at first, but killing everything from a distance and rarely taking any damage got old. Playing as a heavy armor wearing battle mage. Loads more fun. And...Risky.

Must be hard to control though, especially to run.

I've assigned Run and Sneak to physical buttons, it's better and more reliable in stressed situations. Only L1 and L2 are touch, since we just use them to talk. It doesn't respond exactly like a controller, but I guess that's why OWI made the QUICK SAVE feature, so we in the future, could play it on our smartphones.

I bet it woukdn't run on mine.I've got a Samsung Galaxy Mini, haha.

I don't think it would run very smooth, since your phone only has 600 MHz. To work properly, it should have 1 GHz.

Nepsotic 05-30-2012 01:23 PM

Wow, you just said a bunch'a stuff I don't know, there.

I got AO on my PSX emulator on my Samsung Galaxy S2.

Steamer_KING 05-30-2012 02:12 PM

That's the processor clock speed.

Right, because you got a Dual-core 1.2 GHz, so it's normal to work fine. I have single-core 1.4 GHz.

Nepsotic 05-30-2012 02:25 PM

Man, my phone sounds shit now...

Steamer_KING 05-30-2012 04:42 PM

My first smartphone was worst than yours and it was excellent. Just because you have a phone with less clock speed, doesn't mean it's bad.

Mac Sirloin 05-30-2012 08:11 PM

Can one of you kids just explain how to send the text messagers again?

JennyGenesis 05-31-2012 02:19 AM

On the home screen of my phone, there's an icon of an envelope at the bottom labeled "Messaging"

I touch that with my finger, enter the recipients name with my thumbs on the touch screen keyboard, then type the message, and press send.

I remember the days of having to type text messages with a numeric pad, I hated it so much!

MeechMunchie 05-31-2012 04:10 AM

The original Baldur's Gate.

I'd forgotten how boring this game was. It's intruiging at times, occasionally satisfying, and I certainly can't fault its mathematical depth. But for the most part it's just very, very slow and boring. When it started crashing repeatedly at the Jovial Juggler, I sighed and ennuiquit.

Minsc is still funny, though.

Varrok 05-31-2012 04:20 AM

Good to know there are other people who think the same as I about BG.

MeechMunchie 05-31-2012 05:17 AM

I like the characters, and the story, and the customisation. It's just very systematic, that's all. Give everyone ranged weapons, park your bard at the back, send in your fighter to tank, comlplete quest, level up. There's plenty of depth, but no variety.

It feels like amateur D&D, basically.

Also, the walking speed is so slow. I'll be interested in seeing what the remake does with it.

Nepsotic 05-31-2012 07:05 AM

I used to play champions of norath ages ago. I played on it recently and remembered how terrible it is.

(Insert mindless crack about Bioware here)


I replayed Metroid: Zero Mission. Fun game, mindlessly linear, stupid plot I guess, but fun. Butt fun.

Mr. Bungle 05-31-2012 11:44 PM

I love Zero Mission, but between the two GBA Metroids, I definitely prefer Fusion. It can be pretty linear as well, but the story and atmosphere are just top-notch. Plus Samus X is scary as fuck. Man, I now I wanna play Metroid.

Dynamithix 05-31-2012 11:51 PM

Speaking of GBA, I bought the Crash & Spyro combo pack from my friend that has Spyro: Season of Ice and Crash Bandicoot: N-Tranced. I already have the one that has Crash Nitro Kart and Spyro 2: Season of Flame.

So far I'm liking the GBA Spyros, I'm now trying to find the final combo pack that has Crash in Spyro's world and Spyro in Crash's world.

Oh and I bought Syndicate for Xbox 360 since it was on sale. It's pretty fun but can be frustratingly hard even on the easier difficulties and oh god, it has so much blur and bloom in some parts.

Don’t bother, they’re both just mindless minigame collections with a dumb plot vaguely tying the two together.

Crashpunk 06-01-2012 03:27 AM

Crash and Spyro Fusion were seriously disappointing, I remember being so hyped for them because it was my two favorite franchises crossing over. Man if Insomniac and Naughty Dog made a cross over back on the PS1, it would of been so good...

Other then that, the Spyro and Crash GBA games are pretty good, Crash XS and Crash 2: N-Traced were just dumbed down versions of Crash Bandicoot 2 and Warped! but were overall fun and Spyro Season of Fire and Ice were great in my opinion. That other one that was a sorta RPG Spyro game was pretty good too. Spyro's Adventure I think it was called.

Nepsotic 06-01-2012 04:12 AM

The new Spyro gane on the Xbox is said to be terrible. Skylanders, I think its called.

Crashpunk 06-01-2012 04:40 AM

Spyro died when they made Legend of Spyro. Heroes Tail was the truly last decent Spyro Game
