And this:

I still have my SX-64 in pristine condition. I loved that thing since ‘83 and it still works like a boss. 3DO doesn’t belong here in any form though. It’s all sorts of ugly.

Don’t just do the same shit over and over. Simple, huh?

The smashing “sleeping bag” fatality is weak and makes no sense. Why do their arms come off? I don’t get it. I’d rather he did something like Johnny Cage’s face pulverizing one. Just smash them a bunch of times into a bloody mess rather than having them fall apart for no reason.

Both of these players is why I just don’t bother playing anything competitive online anymore. So yeah, the spammer was a complete dick, but almost equally annoying is the guy who can combo juggle you into oblivion, which also makes playing not fun. It’s like the shitheads who make denial and land destruction decks in…

Is it just me or does he look a little low-res?

I wasn’t debating that. I just don’t understand the new Iron Man’s completely spandex look. It doesn’t scream “metal” or “iron”. I like the old one, even if you told me the yellow parts were completely spandex - at least the red stuff looks like metal.

I guess I’m just used to OG Iron Man and 90’s Iron Man. I never kept up with the books at all but I do know what I remember from covers and media.

Why does Iron Man look like he’s wearing tights instead of- you know- a metal suit?

Can I sue Zac Efron then? Because I’ve been told I look like an old Zac Efron which means he stole my look.

Still looks stupid.

That or cup your hands around your eyes against the mirror and look for the room behind.

I swear this is how I thought it looked when I was playing with my toys back in the day. Hits me right in the 80’s me feels, bro.

I feel like they have the same attitude as Nintendo did with Earthbound. I recall them saying they didn’t care about $500,000 or $1,000,000 for a small release like EB. They want the $30 million sales like Mario. To some degree, I totally understand that, but I can’t see why it hurts them to make an extra mil here and…

Do you think Silent Hills’ cancellation is due in part to the costs of MGS? Meaning, they can’t afford to pay Del Toro and Reedus and continue to fund the game while going full-balls into MGS’ massive production?

I imagine anything is better than nothing at this point. I don’t understand why big companies like this feel like they ONLY need the huge payoffs to keep up and running, but ignore having lots of little cash-ins along the way. The way I see it, if you make $500,000 on a simple 1-month port of an existing game, why not…

Konami, much like many Japanese gaming companies, have almost zero confidence in the US/European markets’ ability to consume oddball games, and rhythm games. It’s probably going to be part of their ultimate undoing, because they underestimated it and procrastinated on Bemani western releases since the 90’s and then…

Final Fantasy is what did square under though. Massive production costs for the games, followed by the $100,000,000 investment in the CGI studio for Spirits Within is what sealed their demise. Luckily Enix was there to bail them out, and they now has a much more diverse portfolio of games to support themselves between…

Konami’s biggest problem is putting all their eggs in one basket lately. Metal Gear isn’t going to carry them forever, and recently they’ve been doing nothing but Metal Gear games and not bothering with any of the rest of their catalogue.
