The Gaming Lounge: Beyond - Part 6

[Nathan]

I don't think XIII has anything to so with why he and his friend aren't talking. It's irrelevant

I just don't know how to respond. And honestly, I've decided a long time ago not to bother anymore with what he has to say.

 

[Soapy]

For the three other people that care: Doug TenNapel is making a spiritual successor to The Neverhood.

Hmm that's the creator of earth worm Jim. that new ip he's doing should be interesting.

Wow. That's a really good move.

 

[Iceman]

Finished XIII once and never went back to it. Eventually lend it a friend, and due to certain circumstances, I'm not seeing that friend anymore. He still has my game. I don't miss it one bit.

I've got quite a few games that I've lent out or borrowed from friends of the time that I might never see again (not because I don't get on with them...they live miles away now). Although I'm kind of even overall so can't complain. t:

Excellent move! I heard a lot of suspicion that they were only stopping doing the passes because they were about to benefit from the used game fees but if they're going backward it can only be a good & honest gesture for fans. Is there hope for the future with EA?! A new direction? t:

 

[Nathan]

Eh, I'll wait and see what they are going to do with the next console generation. If they don't pull any further DRM nonsense, then I'll start praising them.

One of my childhood friends still (probably) has my copy of Lunar (PS1), and another has one of my copies of Star Ocean 2 (bought another copy a few years ago). I moved away from my home town though, and haven't seen either in about 5 years. Would be akward to just suddenly show up at their door, "Hey, been forever. Um...I've been in the mood to play Lunar again....you still have my copy, right?", lol.

Wasn't going to add this in because it's not gaming relate, but this is kinda odd, and flattering at the same time, heh. Another friend has drawings I drew back in kindergarten. He was convinced I was going to be a famous artist one day (lol), and kept them the entire time (including stuff I drew in middle, and high school as well). Saw him a year ago and he mentioned he still had them. It's nice to have childhood stuff, so I considered asking him for them, but he kept them all this time, so I didn't say anything.

Damnit...I was hoping for an HD version on consoles.

 

[Fading]

I never played KOTOR 1, do have, and have played 2 however. My brother let me borrow his, but it absolutely refuses to play. I've changed about a dozen setting, changed compatibility issues, installed several things, scoured google for answers. I can still play plenty of older PC games, Bioware did a bad job of making that game future proof (I'm not the only one with this issue, easily found TONS of threads with similar problems playing it on Windows 8, 7 as well).

So I would have welcomed a re-release of the game as well.

 

[Solidus]

Damnit...I was hoping for an HD version on consoles.

I have a feeling that will be announced at E3. Since EA is doing all the SW stuff now.

yeah game informer put this up after EPD.tv/ROTR put that up.

Neither EA, BioWare, or Aspyr (which handled this port) responded with anything but a "no comment" when asked about further back-catalog releases or the possibility of bringing this to Android, sadly.

so I think your on the money with what you just said . hmmm may be I should have put this all up on the star wars thread though.

 

[Benstamania]

Eh...When I think of playing KOTOR...I don't want to think about playing it on a tablet...or a phone. I want a controller and buttons.

 

[zenith16]

That was also said in the game informer article too.

Oculus Rift founder killed in police chase

May he rest in peace

Fixed.

And my condolences to his family and friends.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

Fixed.

I'm used to the other word

Thanks Parker

I'm thinking about getting James Bond: Blood Stone and Captain America. Good/bad/decent?

 

[SpideyVille]

Blood Stone is good, especially if you like Bond games that aren't first person shooters. They definitely could have done more with the game, but I really enjoyed it and wish they made more Bond games like it.

Captain America is also a decent game, but its pretty short. Its plays like a smaller version of Arkham Asylum, but its one of the better Marvel movie games.

 

[Benstamania]

Yeah. Cap is actually pretty good..for a movie based game.

 

[Iceman]

I'm interested in both of those but won't be getting them for a while.
