I think I have become addicted to speed.

    I have a Need...for Speed. Underground too....
  • Not as far as I know but...

    The original Street Fighter was apparently included in some collection on the PS2, so you totally could play Street Fighter on a console with a wireless controller.

    Would you say that you tend to often feel that...YOU'RE TOO SLOW?


  • PC version of Oblivion can be modded... but XBox 360 version has more fluent controls. Fact is combat is infinitely easier with a pad than with mouse and keyboard. Besides... the game is good enough even without mods.

    Speaking of these, what D&D 3.5e computer/console games are there?  As in, ones that use that system, not necessarily "Dungeons & Dragons" games specifically.
  • ^^ You can play the PC version with a pad.
  • You can change. You can.
    Fable III was mentioned. It is my duty as a sort-of journalist to pimp this guy's review
  • If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.
    "Fable III sucks! It held my hand too much!"

    "Fable III sucks! Its' auto-route is buggy and stupid and unintuitive!"

    So... The game holds your hand too much and yet it doesn't hold your hand enough?

    ... Fuck that review.

    What he means is that if the game is gonna give you a quest and then give you an auto route, then why the fuck make it so badly? It would be better if it had no auto route whatsoever, instead of the crap the game got.

    Basically, the game doesn't give you any freedom and the few times it tried, it did it in the wrong aspects, so to speak.

    Think of it like this: You're playing a GTA game. Or any sandbox game, for that matter. And you pick up a mission. It is then that the game becomes restricitve (Or at the very least, tell you where you should be) instead of leaving you to float around without knowing where to go.

    Also, the auto travel feature does suck.
  • If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.
    Auto-route is basically a feature that lets you get up and make a cuppa while playing. It's not really intended as a huge gameplay feature.

    Furthermore: "I'm going to find the most effective ways to win. Now I am going to complain about the fact that combat is too easy while I am shamelessly abusing a game breaker."

    "It’s not my fault B is a “win button” nor should I be the one responsible for making the game more difficult by handicapping myself."

    That, my friend, is not how it works.

    And lastly:

    But then time started speeding up. After my first day of rule, there were 360 days left. After my next, 290, then 220 and all of a sudden 120. This wasn’t a year at all!

    I’ll wander around later, I thought, I’ll let my cash amass and then transfer it to make sure I save everyone.

    It's not my fault that I can make pillars in Minecraft to avoid all monsters on the Hard difficulty or swap to Peaceful to recover from all my damage,
    nor should I be the one responsible for making the game more difficult by handicapping myself."

    the problem is the existence of such a game breaker by itself. Not only that, but he mentions that the use of the other methods isn't just ineffective, it's completely useless and ramps the difficulty to shamelessly high levels.

    RPGs should be balanced. And the problem is not the fact that this thing exists so much as the fact that it's been going for three games. 

    It's like KHII. All I have to do is press X to win. Constantly. It's annoying as hell and it's the surefire way to win. Do I like that? No. I could turn off all the combos given to me by bonus levels and the like, but all that does is make the attacks Sora does look less explodey. I am still a goddamn superman in a 14 year old body. 
  • If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.
    Yes, pressing Attack repeatedly does tend to work.

    But this review isn't saying that. It's saying more along the lines of "And Reflega blocks everything! I just spammed Reflega on everything, even the bonus bosses. Bah. This game is too easy."

    Is the existence of the game breaker bad? Yes. But if you admit you shamelessly abuse it on everything- AFTER you admit that there is an effective weapon you like that doesn't insta-win everything for you- you have lost every right to complain about the difficulty of the game.
  • You can change. You can.
    Yeah, but Reflega is a tool that the game gives you. I believe that if a game difficulty  becomes enjoyable only through a self imposed challenge, then it's just badly designed. And he doesn't mention he likes the weapon in question, he says that the weapon in question exists. That's a huge difference.
