Chatterbox: Video Games

ESRB is entirely voluntary itself. Only consoles themselves enforce the rule that it must be done, Steam does not.

Also the company has to pay for a rating then will submit a video with all the yada in it and ask for a rating, they will more than likely get that rating.

Really King? Your trademarking "Super"?!

Outcast is getting a remake titled Outcast – Second Contact.

Since I haven't found a thread for this game series yet... Anyone here played any of the Syphon Filter games? I could only get my hands on SF 2, SF 3, and The Omega Strain, with only the first and (maybe) second having the distinctioning of ever being completed (several times in SF 2's case).

x4: I'd love to see them try and sue Nintendo.

I doubt Tencent's WeGame can compete and be a Killer App against Steam, GOG, Uplay and Origins.

What's a "yooplei" and an "orange-ing?"

(Because no one uses them)

That is a thing?

Back in the 80s and 90s, before websites became a primary source for video game news, what magazines did gamers read besides Nintendo Power?

There were official magazines for Sony's consoles, which usually came with a demo disk (albeit one that started to include the same old playable demos every time).

Could anyone give their thoughts on this video I made?

I found yer statements mostly to the point, not necessarily a bad thing, but you could use a simile or metaphor or visual puns here and there. Sort of how Game Theory overdoes it but less of course. It is mostly to add a illustration or joke in between periods of talking about the subject matter, to break monotony.

I think you may also need a clear transition between your intro part and the part yer talking about 2d Sonic. Like a splash or chapter title screen.

Also the thumbnail is kinda boring, the excessive white space to blame. Could use jazzing up a bit. Add a random blurred or desaturated Sonic background, or even a signature—for your channel—tiled or pattern background should you want one. A bit of text effects on the "From 2D to 3D", and a more exciting arrow would help too.

Finally try to come up with standard intro and/or outro spiels. It works wonders for recognizability.

Combined with sesame credit, that might actually be more "successful" than I'd normally expect.

Yeah, the thumbnail is something I'm not good at creating. Ack. I could use help with that. But thanks! I do want more people to see that video!

Anyone have any thoughts on this one I just made a couple days ago?

What/who would you say is the most respected person/website/whatever in the field of video game journalism?

I really want a new Parappa game.

So, I've been trying to find a PS 3 for a cheap price. The pawn shop near where i live sells the original models for $79.99. As soon as i get enough money, I can buy that console and be able to play the games I have bought for it.

Since I got here, I've always wondered why there's a Nintendo Media Events thread on this forum, but there's no Sony or Microsoft ones. :)

Total Biscuit, IMO. For PC gaming at least.

The Nintendo thread was probably grandfathered in past our more strictly enforced rules on "general" topics in the media forums.

Double Post: I got the Bioshock collection on Steam Summer Sale last week and played through the Remastered versions of the first and second games. I found myself frustrated to the point of incoherence by Bioshock 2 Remastered's constant CTDs, which made the final battle literally unplayable. I gave up after about ten tries and watched the ending(s) on YouTube. I hope Infinite is playable...

Anyone know where I can get a cheap PS 4? Pining for the N. Sane Trilogy so bad... the SGB LP isn't nearly enough to satisfy me, I want to play it myself goddammit T_T

I'm sure there's lots of trade in secondhand consoles on Amazon and Ebay and whatnot, but you know that as well as I do.

x5: His opinions on a certain subject we don't discuss here damaged his credibility a lot, didn't they?

An EXCELLENT video on the Polybius legend.
