  1. I hated it. I wish developers, especially Indie developers, would stop mistaking art for gameplay. Yes, the game is visually a work of art, conveying a lot of the games atmosphere in a gorgeous monochrome. The gameplay, though, pretty much consisted of running into an instant-kill trap you couldn't see, remembering where it was so you could get by it when you respawned, only to run into the next insant-kill trap. Repeat ad-nauseum.

    I do see your point in some respects mikeszekely...but I do feel that all gaming is art in some aspect no?

  2. Hello all,

    First I would like to say that I am generation 8 bit. That is, I grow up with the classic side scrollers on the original NES. Gradually I lost interest in games for a while. Despite all the innovations, I thought the technology was just not there or just not polished enough once games made the transition into 3D.When games hit their stride again in the mid 90's (just my opinion) I got back into it, and of course the rest is just Playstation, Xbox and Wii Hi Def progressive scan goodness history!

    Stop Reading Now Download This Game and Come Back and Read The Rest!!!!!!

    Having said that, you must Download Limbo Now! This game is an absolute masterpiece and pushes the boundaries of gaming Narrative with (Ironically) no Narrative. It is atmospheric, creepy and tragic and the fact that not much is known about the character, his quest or where he is exactly, leaves room for so much speculation no doubt by now flooding Google search engines.

    I will not say much about the game as you must experience Limbo in order to appreciate it fully. It is truly an immersive game and it will hook you from start to finish. This is an absolute gem of a game!

    Your though please for those who have played?

  3. And that would add another reason why Jenner was more than ready to let himself go...

    Agreed MYK, that is my take on it... its would also explain the sheriff's emotional reaction before he started driving away. I did like the season finale for many reasons one of which was Jenner himself and his chilling message " This is our extinction event" awesome!

  4. I down loaded Monster onto my IPAD a month go, it was ok somewhat slow, but really the movie was a kind of commentary on the U.S. immigration policy. Also, it is a character study about two people that are witnessing events unfolding before their eyes that they would otherwise not see in their middle -upper class world. If this was the case it really did not work and you really don't get emotionally involved in either character as they have no chemistry really.

    The title Monster" could really be a metaphor for how the U.S. Immigration Policy is Monstrous in its inequity and really needs to be re-evaluated.

    no spoilers, but if you can read between the lines , as all of us in these forums can, you will see what i mean within the first 30 minutes of the film.

  5. I watched The Crazies a couple nights ago. It was alright but mostly just gory, violent scene after gory, violent scene. (really more of a slasher film like The hills have Eyes or something).

    Also I am Legend isn't a zombie movie, it's a vampire movie.

    I agree "I am legend" was a diffrent kind of movie altogether, same theme but obvious diffrences. as for gore. I think the show had a really good balance. Never over the top, however it did have to be real to the fact that these are people who died and came back as zombies, as such they will rott and decay.

  6. Didn't really read the comic but I will...Wow what an amazing show so far! Definitely not what I expected in a really good way.

    The scene with the deputy and the Zombie crawling around in the park.... when he turns to her and says “I’m sorry this happened to you"

    really set the emotional tone for the show.

    Zombies are really amazing to look at especially in high def, since I recorded it to edit commercials; I kept going back to look at the gorgeous special effects.

    AMC thank you for taking such a bold step!

  7. Update,

    I. Am not even a fraction into the game yet and I have to say this is not your Normal hack and slash! Not even close! As you progress in the stages, there is no way you can survive by slashing alone. In fact the enemies make it so that you have to use some real strategy and not just on the bosses...

    Trust me guys it only gets better and better as you go further and further into the game!

    Wow .... Just wow... :D

  8. :rolleyes:

    So yes I went down to my local Game Stop on Tuesday to trade in Halo Reach for a copy of CVLOS (a bit of a gamble I admit) but I have to say it was totally worth it! This game is not only stunning visually (graphics) but it has essentially taken the best aspects of several different games and woven them into quite a unique gaming experience.

    Borrowing from such games as Devil May Cry, Princes of Persia , (obviously) God of War, Shadow of the Colossus and Resident evil just to name a few, This reboot as they call it, is an imaginative iteration into the series.

    Yes I know, many of us grew up on the old school 2D side scroller. I remember the fall of 1987 when I first laid eyes on that awesome box art and thought man is this going to rock! the memories of those early days of gaming will always be with me, however, time marches on...when I popped this bad boy into my X-box I got that same feeling. I feel this game is going to be obscenely underappreciated due in large part because of the origin of its pedigree, but don't count it out, this game is not only amazing it is really long!

    Not mention the outstanding cast and excellent voice acting. But perhaps the most impressive aspect is the incredible and epic musical score, absolutely top notch! Sure it is not perfect, but pretty freaking close !

    Any thoughts? :)

  10. just wanna give props to Arthurius! great guy excellent communication so that we could both seal the deal with no worries...enjoy the new valk buddy!

    a big one for Mustang1, just got my yf-21, absolutely great condition, followed the instructions greatly, so i didnt pay tax/duty (VERY important for International shipping), and no damage on box, also fast shipping, and good price. Thank you Mustang1.
  11. thanks for the imput Jenius! :rolleyes:

    I will be sure to clarify!

    yes I have boxes and original booklets ect. But I do know for a fact that the Beta has no stickers applied . the other alpha I bought from another mac'worlder and I guess i never noticed.

    Thanks though! i wanna make sure that I am clear when I sell! :rolleyes:

    Just a note, both the blue Alpha MPCs you have there do have stickers applied. The easiest give-away is that both say Mars Base on the intake and that's a sticker. Very attractive prices though, I'm sure all will sell fast. Do you have the boxes and original accessories for all toys or are all being sold loose?
