Nice for the poor souls who didn't get to play it on silicon last time around.


With a large budget splurged on this "cursed" rpg title, an international release looks pretty certain:


Metal Slug 7 on DS is sheer genius! Anybody else braving it on Hard?

This looks interesting, won't fit the mario kart wheel though..

And FFIV [one of the best snes rpgs ever [despite being a "lite" version of the game] has just got released over the pond:

Shame about the localised voice "acting", but meh, at least the game will hopefully get the audience it deserves!

I hope it has more longevity than the (overhyped imho) first one. Personally, I'd much rather get my game on with Llamatron on the Amiga than Geometry wars any day, on the other hand its good to see more back to basics gaming being developed and pushed, then again its not really a concept that could / should launch yet another gaming "franchise" imho and would have liked to see the team have done something different instead.
Does anyone know of a foolproof playstation emulator I can download, the ones I've looked at so far have been hard work to download and install requiring several different download sources. Also, and this may well have been covered at length already...is GTA4 simply too dark in places to see what the hell your doing, or is it just me?

anyone played this yet

lovely game. Taking elements of other games, visuals of yoshis island, that one with the reversing time trick and flashback/oddworld etc, and created a beautiful thing that may not be quite ICO territory, but definitely close to that gaming as art area.

Yep - it's just beautiful. From the moment you realise the game has started (with you in silhouette) to the ideas presented in what appears to be a straightforward platform 2D effort.


This and geometry wars 2 from a week or so back have kept me busy on the console front - classic stuff

N+ for DS

Oh and also, Bakuretsu muteki Bangaioh, a cult hit on the N64 (sold mine for a fortune, heh) and the pirated to death Dreamcast, had a kind of remix sort of thing out on the DS earlier this year, funnily enough it seems its out in English now.




Old skool enough?


Was having a discussion with someone from a company that designs and manufactures chips for Nintendo, and we both came to the same conclusion - the DS is just toooo good! Just what can Nin do to top it????

    • Kwik Fit buggered up an A/C leak diagnosis for me (saying there wasn't one, when there was) and sold a regas. The vehicle had to be taken to an A/C specialist for condensor replacement and a further regas. Not impressed.
    • Yes, these are all good points. I agree with you, that division has led us down dangerous paths in the past. And I deplore any kind of racism (as I think you probably know).  But I feel that a lot of the current wave of xenophobia we're witnessing is actually more about a general malaise and discontent. I know non-white people around here who are surprisingly vocal about immigrants - legal or otherwise. I think this feeling transcends skin colour for a lot of people and isn't as simple as, say, the Jew hatred of the 1930s or the Irish and Black racism that we saw laterally. I think people feel ignored and looked down upon.  What you don't realise, Sephiroth, is that I actually agree with a lot of what you're saying. I just think that looking down on people because of their voting history and opinions is self-defeating. And that's where Labour's getting it wrong and Reform is reaping the rewards.   
    • @Sephiroth you made some interesting points on the economy, on the Lammy thread. Thought it worth broadening the discussion. Reeves (irrespective of her financial competence) clearly was too downbeat on things when Labour came into power. But could there have been more honesty on the liklihood of taxes going up (which they have done, and will do in any case due to the freezing of personal allowances).  It may have been a silly commitment not to do this, but were you damned if you do and damned if you don't?
    • I'd quit this thread, let those who just want to slag Labour off have their own thread.  Your views on the economy are worth debating.  I'm just stunned how there wasn't this level of noise with the last government.  I could try to get some dirt on Badenoch but she is pointless  Whilst I am not a fan of the Daily Mirror at least there is some respite from Labour bashing. https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/grenfell-hillsborough-families-make-powerful-36175862 https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/nigel-farage-facing-parliamentary-investigation-36188612
