In Shadow of the Colossus, due to the games wonky physics, releasing Wander at specific points during a collosi's wild shaking could send him flying, sometimes further along the body or exactly where he needed to go. I've only managed to do it once myself, but they became de facto methods of speedrunning the game, as…

Yeah, beat it on Friday (Ending was Fallout 3 levels of bad) but I'm already liking what little I've played of MotB so much more. Influence on characters is so much easier to gauge and the epic feats are too much fun right now. Only met two of the new characters, but that Spirit Shaman whose name escapes me at the…

That's good to hear, as I used mostly the same party in NWN 2 unless I was forced not to. And yeah, the Epic level stuff just seems good regardless of what class you are. Warlocks in particular have an epic feat that just increases damage of Eldritch Blasts by 50%.

Yeah, I ended up rebuying the Gold Edition through gog.com a few years back, even if just for the expanded races and class options. I doubt I'll get to any multiplayer stuff at this point. Had to play the Warlock despite how bad they are and wanted that Hellfire prestige too much.

+1 for the Wii Fit Trainer comment. Would also have accepted Villager.

They are little statues you stick on the Wii U gamepad and the game reads them and stores data to them. There only uses right now are storing training data in Smash, unlocking some cosmetic stuff in Mario Kart, and Link unlocks a weapon in Hyrule Warriors.

Except the figures do even less but on more games.

Nope, can't get me on that Amiibo train, not without serious overhauls into how much I get out of it. Harder AI and a hat in Mario Kart aren't exactly what I'm looking for at $13. I never thought I would say this, but Nintendo really needs a Skylanders/Disney Infinity-esque game to tie all the pieces together in…

I'd watch it.

Red Letter Media did a run through of the 4 movies just before seeing the fifth and it was hilarious as well.

And she's technically not part of a spinoff. It took Arena for me to notice just how anime the games are, but 60+ hours of development helps them feel like a lot more during the main games. Labrys and Sho (Who I unabashedly hate and was a terrible villain) barely get an hour or two in a fighting to make me care about…

I understand the sentiment, I just feel Diablo is the wrong delivery vehicle for it.

And traps, which make the most sense. I don't know, Assassin seems like an easier sell, even as just a precursor to something like the Demon Hunter. I could see the possibility of someone trying to kill a big demon in one go through some unconventional assassination method instead of trying to go toe to toe with it.…

The reason Melee is held as the pinnacle of the series to this day is because the N64 version just isn't very good. Looking back, it barely has any content in it, which is hilarious in it's own right, since this series is known for a ridiculous amount of content per iteration, and the amount of moves every character…

My dislike of D3 aside (Call me an oldie who likes D2 too much if you must) but Monk is just a class I never liked in the universe. In something silly like Final Fantasy I'm okay with people punching whatever, but in Diablo I immediately roll my eyes at anyone punching a demon. It's like I recall some of the darker…

I think my problem with most of the Persona spinoff games are the characters added for those games themselves. I think they just end up awfully stupid, especially since I am supposed to take these games as canon.

I do this to myself every time, but I just can't get into Freedom Wars. I have no idea how people enjoy these Monster Hunter clones but they are all pretty dull. Even Soul Sacrifice couldn't hold my interest longer than I few missions and the setting is as cool as can be. But playing games like this is just a slog,…

A nope, a nope, and another nope. I suppose now that I think about it, I did get the Sins of a Solar Empire expansions and some DoW II stuff, but most games I do not find myself drawn to again, especially if I have to pay for it. Dark Souls 2 will likely be added to that list at some point, but unless it feels like a…

My never getting DLC rule had been broken by 2 games: Rock Band and Dark Souls 1. Given that there is a ton more for a game I liked not quite as much makes me hesitant, but I've been hearing good things. Will probably just pick up the inevitable Game of the Year edition with all of it included at some point. Need to…

Until the sequel.
