Siren aka Forbidden Siren. It’s a fantastic, creepy, weird survival horror game but it is incredibly opaque as to how to progress through the game. The game is played with different characters through a series of missions that are jumbled up in a non sequential order and you have to complete certain objectives in one…

This made me weirdly nostalgic.

I kind of love House of the Dead because is so spectacularly bad and hilarious. My friends and I still quote it while playing games “This book looks old, I think it can help us!” The rest of Boll’s films are unwatchable.

Baboon is only 41? I DEMAND A RECOUNT!

Well, Forrest Ackerman was going by Dr. Acula way back in the 40s, soooo...

“The sky above the port was the color of television, tuned to a dead channel.”

Shadowrun now has a rules lite version called Shadowrun:Anarchy. It’s inspired by the indie-storytelling systems that empower players. It might be more your speed, the normal Shadowrun rules are absurdly complicated, and I say that as a devoted Shadowrun fan.

Agree to disagree. That’s a relatively recent interpretation of RPGs and not what it was about when Gygax and Arneson created it back in the 70s, where it had evolved from wargames. D&D started as a game first and foremost and the collective storytelling angle came about later. I’m not saying that collective…

There’s competition in it? Maybe I missed that part in the rules, but none of the Fiasco sessions I’ve ever played in had any competition or winners and losers. The rules only exist to give some structure to the play acting. I enjoy Fiasco well enough and totally see it’s appeal to people who wouldn’t necessarily like…

Fiasco can be a ton of fun, but it’s not in any way a role playing game. It’s an improv exercise. Yes technically there are dice, but the dice are so superfluous they don’t matter.

Supposedly he did destroy most of the other prints, that’s why this one is so rare. Also, he gave a lot of the alternate takes to Ridley Scott, who sifted through them to splice into the end of Blade Runner.

Yes, I was making a joke. That said, do YOU realize that the Doomsday Clock is as close as it’s ever been to midnight? If you think that our only problems are “social arguments,” whatever that means, you are grossly misinformed.

I find it pretty uplifiting that you believe society will survive that long. Keep that hope alive, man!

I just picked it up on sale from GOG. Reading the reviews there it looks like they fixed all the issues with patches. Hmmm. I’m going to give it a try anyway. I previously beat the game on Xbox 360, but I don’t want to have to get my 360 out of storage for a replay. Wish me luck.

Aww man, I just bought the PC port! What’s wrong with it?

I wish I could rebut your claim that the Turbo Tunnel is the hardest level in Battletoads, but I can’t, because I literally never beat the Turbo Tunnel.

I’m actually working my way through SotN again myself. I hadn’t played it since it first came out, but I got a PS emulator on my computer and it plays right off of the original disc. I just have to get my sword familiar leveled up all the way!

The Evil Within 2 has a few open world levels and it’s executed brilliantly. But otherwise, yes I totally agree with you.

I have Dragon’s Dogma for PC, but yeah my PS3 died and I regret not being able to still play this one.
