I completely forgot that you had to buy a special adapter just to use headphones with the SP. What a crock of shit.

I'm going nuts trying to find one of these adapters in store. =(

atsonicpark · 08.03.2010, 03:50 PM

why did no one tell me this game is so awesome? At first I was like, "Hmm.." but after 20 minutes of blowing EVERYTHING IN THE WORLD UP, I was hooked. This game will vibrator your dual shock like no one's business. The entire game is just dropping bombs and blowing yourself up, and robots up, and doors up, and buildings up, and planes up, just fire and explosions and loudness and an awesome techno soundtrack.

this game embodies everything that made the playstation so fucking COOL and takes me back to what made the 90's so fucking awesome.

pfft. Good luck. I got mine via internet trade. I'd send it to you to borrow, but the shoot would be over by the time you got it.

atsonicpark · 08.03.2010, 06:37 PM

those headphone adapters are only $5 on amazon...

noisereductions · 08.03.2010, 08:09 PM

oh yeah thay're not expensive. They're just rare "IRL"

shabbray2.0 · 08.04.2010, 05:38 AM

'Heavy Rain,' 'The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past,' and 'Final Fantasy 3.'

Saw my brother play this one the other day and was very impressed so I decided to start playing it today.

Also, I've started playing another game on my brother's computer, it's called The Path and it's developed by an indie Belgian studio. It's also quite good, the plot is simple: you have to choose one little girl out of six (each one reminiscent of the little red riding hood) and the game asks you to follow the path to your grandma's house. If you do so, you fail, because you actually have to go OUT of the path and meet the wolf... The encounter is always different, depending on which little girl you've chosen. It's a very strange game with a weird atmosphere... Adam Cooley, do you know this one ? Something tells me you might like it ! There's a demo available somewhere I think.

GeneticKiss · 08.05.2010, 10:42 AM

^I saw Yahtzee's "review" (let's be honest, very few people take the views he expresses on Zero Punctuation seriously) of Limbo the other day, and seeing that artwork for The Path makes me agree with him that nearly every indie game has an emo/goth motif...they say game makers wish they could be filmmakers, so it's like big developers want to be Michael Bay/John Woo, while indie studios wish they could be Tim Burton directing a movie screenwriten by Neil Gaiman...

It doesn't bother me, being at least partially into that sort of thing (not yet, anyway).

noisereductions · 08.05.2010, 10:47 AM

I'm fully emerged in RE4 (Gamecube) with a little NBA Jam (Game Boy) season thrown in.

And GeneticKiss, I know what you mean, I also noticed that those indie games always look very "dark" and sometimes, yeah, like if Burton tried to make a game... But still, they're all unique. For instance, Limbo and Braid are two of the best XBLA games and they might look similar but they're pretty different... Anyway, this visual style doesn't bother me and I was completely amazed by Limbo !

My roommate did! I'm not that far yet, but it's enjoyable. It's slow moving, a lot of walking around, observing things, performing minute tasks, scanning your environment... when fast-paced action scenes do occur, you're basically hitting the right sequence of buttons as they appear on the screen and are controlling a cutscene of sorts in that way. All of that said, it's more fun than it sounds and it's pretty immersive.
