LoL, well why don't you take pics of yourself as Mike Jones then?

I lack the threads to do so.

Tomorrow on the news:

Enraged, overly ambitious fan rampages through cities and forces Nintendo to make Startropics 3

Oh boy, that'd be a riot.

Quote from: Ninja Lou on December 09, 2009, 10:40:12 PM

blah blah blah, what Nintendo needs to concentrate on is making a new Mario game. They don't have enough of these. Startropics needs to move over and let another series grab the spotlight for once.

And funnily enough this argument could actually happen in other facets of the internet...

And win.

...really?

Why would they do that?

I'm with this one. As much of a sucker as I can be for good crossovers, this is just laugh worthily out of place.

LoL, TOO LATE! ALREADY DONE!

Just in case, I did save the URL though! http://i34.tinypic.com/2v8ls13.png

You know, Jelly, I've been so tempted to just change your Avatar to Saint Jericho, and put the Blue Lantern Corps banner in your sig!

You know, I really don't know why I haven't done so yet. Let me save my current avatar URL first and I'll get on it myself!

You people and your Zelda. If you're going to be that creative, use said creativity and bring another franchise's popularity up.

Man, I really was hoping for Luffy to not get KO'd so quickly, but thinking about it, it was probably inevitable. I really want that kid to leave a huge impression on this battlefield soon. Meanwhile, Garp blitzing out before Sengoku makes me wonder what he's thinking.

Off The Wall / Requesting a program!

« on: December 09, 2009, 02:43:05 AM »

OK, so after dicking around with Windows Live Messenger's "Draw Chat", I have to wonder, are there more full featured programs on the net that allow one to actively draw and have another person either comment on it, instant message another one or join in without being so finicky on the limits? Any help would be appreciated!

You know, I've finally realized something pretty big about myself reading this thread. I give my games a lot of leeway for things or I'm just not so picky or finicky with them. The camera in Super Mario 64 all the way through Galaxy has never given me an issue in my life. Actually, I can say that out of all the games I've ever played in my life, the only one where the camera gave me even the slightest issue was (ironically) Sonic Adventure 1 in spots (Chaos 1 Battle, I'm looking at you).

Sooooo, anyone want to Brawl now? I'm going online for a bit and interested in seeing how bad I've gotten compared to the rest of you.

OK online now, I'll be in a separate room from my computer thus no posting. Just jump in if you see my room up online, or I'll jump into one of yours!

I used to be that way Tai, until I started experimenting like I always do in games like that and found myself clipping through the ground in a very specific place in Emerald Coast in Sonic Adventure. Ah boost panel into the abyss, how I love thee.

I think it's really hard for anyone who grew up during that era to admit that Sonic Adventure was really a very flawed transition to 3D, myself included. We all fell hard for the Dreamcast hype and-- HOLY [tornado fang] I'M OUTRUNNING A GIANT WHALE, SONIC AM BACK.

Not to say the game was terrible, but it's definitely one of those things that time has gotten the better of.

Just to kinda chime in on something that Hyper brought up, I actually did understand the reason for timing the items one used in Galaxy. The Fire Flower was too damn broken in that it killed most everything that moved (all at the cost of losing the momentum stalling that the standard spin allowed) and Ice Mario's design was created for making creative platform challenges that usually revolved around getting from point A on a water front to point B -- a hidden away area or lesser used shortcut. If these powers were standard fare that could be moved about the levels, it'd certainly be a bit more to the gamebreaking side of things, and on top of that there's also the issue of losing the spin maneuver which really supplemented a good portion of the platforming.

Honestly, I don't really see it as a negative that the 3D games have focused less on keeping items and abilities between levels. I see it more as a change in design focus and as such, I can understand why certain things act differently in one set of games rather than the other. It'd be cool though if there came a game built with deeper 2D Mario routes that would allow for this, but for what the current 3d games are, I enjoy em lots.
