    BEHOLD! I HAS THE 3DS! (Requests)

    If you have any interest in story driven games with some interesting puzzles, check out 9 Hours 9 Persons 9 Doors (DS) and its sequel Virtue's Last Reward (3DS). Although I can't really say why without massive spoilers, know that they are some of the most interesting stories I've come across in...

    Poll: Video Game songs you're nostalgic for

    For some reason, this song always does it for me, which is weird since I only first played the Mother series 3 or 4 years ago. There's just something both the eight melodies that makes me feel like a kid again, and adding the love theme from Mother 3 in there just makes it perfect.

    So Persona 3

    If you enjoyed Persona 4 then you'll most likely enjoy Persona 3 as well. I just recently played through both for the first time starting with 4, and while I was annoyed by some of the things that were clearly a step backward between the two (not being able to control your party members and not...

    Games no one else has played but you

    There was this game I ended up with, I'm not even sure how, but it was a black white disc with the the title N2O written on it in permanent marker. After a quick search, I found a video of it, so it might not be that obscure, but I never heard of it anywhere before or since. Here's a quick...

    Game music that makes you want to kick some ass!

    Yeah, this game soundtrack kinda rocks.

    Games where the rain just made you go..."Huh."

    Sleeping Dogs definitely had some nice rain effects, but more recently my favorite has been the tropical storms in Assassin's Creed IV. The way the sky turns dark and the wind picks up is absolutely gorgeous. And the twisters and waves that show up when you're out at sea make any ship battle ten...

    give me a list of your top ten indie game soundtracks

    I've always been a fan of the World of Goo soundtrack, although it might be a compilation of sorts. It's probably one of, if not my favorite game soundtrack that comes to mind.

    Your favorite game of 2013 which is not actually from 2013 ?

    Mine would probably be Alice: Madness Returns. There's just something about that whole story and aesthetic that I really liked, even if the game itself did drag on a bit toward the end. Close second with Far Cry 3, however. I got it during Steam's winter sale so I haven't quite finished it...

    Hey look! Another jrpg topic!

    I know you said your limited to this gen, but if you found a way and don't mind older games then I would highly recommend Earthbound and Mother 3, two JRPGs that have an incredible, quirky sense of humor and one of the best battle systems I have ever seen in turn-based combat. Mother 3 was never...

    Games you have brought or downloaded that you fully regret.

    The only one I can really think of is Deus Ex: Human Revolution. This isn't because it's not a good game, I ended up enjoying the crap out of it. The thing I regret is waiting months for it to go on sale on Steam then finally convincing myself to buy it because its not going to happen any time...

    Favourite Game Trailers

    I second this one as one of my favorite game trailers. Here's my contributions: The trailer that finally got me to play one of my now favorite series of all time. And the live action one for Other M. Still my favorite trailer in terms of the music; Shame that the game couldn't have been...

    Poll: Will you Purchase Saints Row IV?

    Yeah I will probably pick it up once all the DLC is out and it's all together in one neat package. I picked up the second and third game during the Steam Summer Sale and have already put in over 30 hours into them (mostly the third because the PC port of SR 2 is junk). Also, I feel like since...

    XCOM: Enemy Within Spotted on Ratings Board

    Hmm... Enemy Within. Sounds to me like it might have something to do with something going wrong with the psychic abilities that some soldiers could get. They did mention that it would have some pretty significant effects on the way that people on earth live after the alien attack. I'd love to...

    Steam Summer Sale: What did you buy?

    Let's see here. So far: FEZ Mirror's Edge (not bad game, too short, terrible ending) The Witcher 1 + 2 Knights of the Old Republic 1 + 2 Half Life 2 (also episodes 1 + 2) System Shock 2 Saint's Row 2 + 3 (2 is a really crappy port. I should have listened to the warnings) Dust: An Elysian...

    Poll: I'm going to make a game, what do you think of my idea?

    Hmm... sounds like a neat idea, but I would have to agree with the people saying that you should put more focus on just a couple of the mechanics and only include the ones that will really enhance the core elements of the game (which seems to be the free-running and the hacking). Otherwise...
