I'd hardly call it shitty, It's being developed by PLATINUM GAMES. The guys who made Vanquish and Bayonetta.

Oh, really?

I couldn't tell, the image was fuzzy. I didn't actually click the link but it just looked like a picture of a car so I assumed the worst.

No wonder I never heard of it, it's going by "Anarchy Reigns" in the US.

Metal Sonic has apparently been his own villain since Sonic Heroes. Don't know how or why that happened though.

This takes place before Heroes.

Also, they consider "Dolby Digital" a feature? I would think that is more of a given considering the fact that its on an HD console.

also.

Okay, this is just plain ridiculous. I've been here for 3 years and only posted a little over 200 times.

While I've been part of The Escapist for only 2 years and posted over 1200 times.

I resolve to post more in this forum from now on! 

....

And figure out how to work that damn signature!

even if you post more it won't bring back the frequent posting that this place had almost a year ago.

Could be a hardware fault, maybe?  If the disc drive sounds like a buzzsaw, that miiiiight possibly be related.

Its been doing that since two years ago when I got Sonic Colors.

Brawl loads fine normally, so I don't know what's going on.

Emulation / My Wii is being an [dark hold]: Brawl Hacks in Riivolution crashing the game.

« on: February 13, 2012, 11:50:08 AM »

So this is a new thing, I was trying to play brawl to test out some new Texture hacks and Music I got. So I boot up Riivolution and load the game with file replacements (Noted by the lovely buzzsaw noise coming from the disk drive being worn out), and as soon as the game loads, nothing, just an occasional blue light flicker from the Disk Drive (Which I found annoying that whenever I used custom music the drive started rocking out), so I reset it and try again, nothing.
I go in and delete a few pointless things (Strap Menu, Controller Page, etc.) and try again, the game loads the strap menu and appears to load, as soon as it would load the Title/Opening video, nothing, just black.

This has never happened before, I'm positive it's not the files that are messed up so I don't know why my Wii is suddenly refusing to use the modified files and opting to just blackout like that? It's not like there have been any updates in ages.

I don't think he wanted it to be funny.
I hope.

Either that or he thinks the bar is a DASH themed bar, which it isn't.

It has something street-fighter related it'll stay existant.

Besides,

There was supposed to be a gigantic Rockman DASH themed cake, but it was recalled at the last minute. Capcom said it had too much sugar.

The joke was made already.

« on: February 12, 2012, 10:28:43 AM »

So you're never playing the game again because you messed up?

Does not compute.

The flame temple is a test of paitence.

There are enemies in there that will knock all but half a heart out of you and take all your magic power, there are also those fun switches with the Red/Blue that make blocks rise/fall, the Darknut Equivilant enemy is in numerous places, though he also has the fun skill of running at you when he sees you and dashing at you if you try to run away from him.

If you at any point die before getting to the room before the boss and activating the teleporter, you have to start the whole damn temple over because the room that you need to pass through has those blocks set to the up position by default, so you need to go all the way back to where the switch was to set the blocks to go down.

Losing magic is a pain in the ass because in certain spots you need to use the Freeze Shader magic to destroy flames that impede your progress.

I didn't save anything in the temple because the game doesn't save upon death unless you choose not to continue (It should ask regardless what if i want to save and continue thats a [tornado fang]ing staple of the zelda-type game design.) And setting revival points doesn't save, again that's real stupid.
I don't even understand why no autosave, or a save menu its not like the select button is being used for anything.

I got through that hell and didn't save, I don't really want to go through again. Guess it helps that I don't have to worry about ever playing spelunker mode since I sure as hell wouldn't be able to beat it.

You do know you can get the Ultimate Armor and Black Zero legit, right?

(which is only available that early by both cheating and foregoing the Z-Buster).

He means before Zero Virus Stage 3.

Well that did the trick.
Thank you very much as I probably would've never known that I could do that. 
I think I should do some grinding before I attempt the next palace.

EDIT- Well I'm at the last palace before the great palace, Two more levels away from maxing link out. I'm rather happy for myself that I actually got this far, I think I should take a break now as the Dragon boss is being a pain to hit and I want to wait a bit before attempting the Great Palace.

Posted on: February 10, 2012, 02:54:27 AMI was playing 3D Dot Game Heroes.
Then the Dash Circuit wore me out
Then Blockout pissed me off
Then the tentacle enemies in the Flame Temple irritated me
Then going through the flame temple 3-5 times having to re-do the entire thing because of the blocks resetting everytime ran my paitence thin
Then the dragon killed me twice.

Then I shut the game off.
Then I looked up how to get the Flame Wand I missed so I could go and get the Hero's Sword.
Then I forgot that Revival Point =/= Saving the game, so I was back at right before the Flame Temple.

Yeah, I'm never playing this game again.

The Bar Prototype will close before its first customers even arrive.
A CAPCOM representative will claim, "not enough patrons took part in the creation of the bar menu. We felt keeping it open was not worthwhile."

Yeah, that's not really funny.

I was playing Zelda 2 until I got to the Island Palace boss.

A blue Iron Knuckle on a horse are you [tornado fang]ing serious, the horse part isn't hard since it just moves back and forth but once he's off his horse he just spams sword beams like he's on crack, none of the other blue Iron Knuckles do that I wish I could just downstab [twin slasher] him because that stupid [tornado fang]ing shield is making me want to pour battery acid on my palms.

I think I'll wait until Nintendo releases the updated NES games with save states because I'm not good enough at retro classics to be playing them.

Pre-ordered Vile.
Gonna suck having one US release that has Vile instead of Vava, but that's some anal nitpicking so I'm not even going to bother complaining when I get it, its the actual figure that matters and its not like they're going to release some shitty US version and keep the good version tucked away in Japan.

The Simpsons Arcade Game (XBLA).

I'm the 6th gamer on TA site to complete it 100%~ (Leaderboard)

PSN just got that so I just bought it.
Beat it once as Homer, I honestly can't say I'm any good at Beat-em-ups, but I enjoy playing them, plus its nice to not have to emulate the game for once.

RMZX Anarchy gets nothing, as it assumes I spelled something wrong and gives me "Max Anarchy" which is either some shitty band or some shitty game I don't know.

Typing in RedMetallix (My old username that I mainly used when I was more active with the Sonic Fanbase) gives me my Youtube channel and my shitty videos from that RM7FC Mod I made.

DASH / Re: Can Bandai get Mega Man off the F***ING moon?

« on: February 05, 2012, 08:17:14 AM »

If Trigger were to generate decent sales then I can't imagine Tron would be very far behind, considering how often she's been the Legends series rep in the past (that and she ties to the Servbots, who are everywhere).  Roll is a bit more iffy.  Seeing her would be like seeing Iris or Alia.  Not a bad idea, by any means, I'm just not sure how much interest Bandai has in navigator-type support characters.

But they're the best characters outside of the main characters. I can't honestly say that I want a Tron figure seeing as I don't like her that much (though if she came with her mech and a Servbot then I would buy her.) and the Support characters need more love anyway.

To be honest, I'm fine with anybody but Protoman winning (We already have a great figure for him).
