@GTV reviews the Cosmic Fantasy 1-2 Switch collection by Edia, provides examples of the poor English editing/localization work. It's much worse for CF1. Rated "D" for disappointment, finding that TurboGrafx CF2 is better & while CF1's the real draw, Edia screwed it up...

Dang, dude. Just reading this. Hope the police can find some fingerprints or something. Really sorry about your collection.

Update: I went with the Xbox One. The price drop combined with the exclusive games pushed me over the edge. Picked up the Assassin's Creed bundle. Not regretting it one bit.

Nice! Will pick up an Everdrive cover at some point. Awesome work. 3D printers are magical.

Only have three so far. Beat AC 3 Liberation and currently playing Borderlands 2. Picked up Ys but will tackle it when I finish BL2. Great little system so far. We've come a long way since Gameboy...

why don't they bring back Dr. Wham!
I drink Dr. Wham every day for lunch at work. :D  Definitely the best Dr Pepper-like substance you can get.
Me and a couple of my friends would try to keep track of all the Dr. Pepper knockoffs. There was Mr. Pibb, Dr. Check, Dr. Thunder and a few others I can't think of right now. Don't remember Dr. Wham being one around here.

We call everything coke as well. It's cool they're bringing this drink back though. I still have an unopened can from the 90s. Guess I should have had it VGAed as the value of a sealed drink will go down with the re-release.

yeah, should be something real like a liger. They're bred for their skill in magic.
I prefer three toed sloths. Ligers are pretty cool though.

Quote from: johnnymad on 09/13/2014, 12:32 AMCan't wait for this to come out. I hope it gets a physical release too. Really enjoying all the behind the scenes development you get to see for being a backer.
Have you gotten your beta access code?  I am still waiting on mine. Will probably send them an email monday.
I did the $60 tier, I think. Just wanted the box. :) Don't really care about early access of the game.

Welcome! You can research a lot about TG games right here on the forum. I've learned a ton about the system in my short time here. Wasn't an OG owner.

Wanna bet?  I like popping game cherries.
Found a sealed PSP game at a thrift store today. Imma gonna open it.

Quote from: EvilEvoIX on 09/10/2014, 11:05 AMThe problem is once the crash does happen it'll take down all resellers and the sellers market almost entirely so finding games will be much harder.
Think it might be easier for the ones of us that are out there hunting for the games in the wild. Resellers will be less likely to pick things up if they don't think they can make a profit. Bring on the crash!

Quote from: Medic_wheat on 09/09/2014, 09:53 AMReally?

I liked it...but I had a similar thing happen with the first Assason's Creed....it just didn't do it for me and I never felt the urge to give that series another try......

Which I find odd because when I look at game play or what have you it seems like the sort of game I would love......as I love other games like Theif, Dishonored, Bio Shock but when it came to Assasons Creed...I couldn't care less for it.
You should give AC another chance. First one was a bit slow but I promise it gets better.

And yeah, U.S. misses out on another cool exclusive. Thanks, Nintendo.

A former fifth grade student of mine called the NES a "Nintendo Machine." Sure that video has similar statements.

They just tried to change too much. Goombas looked really stupid. That's what I remembered most. How were Mario and Luigi supposed to jump on their heads when they're 7 feet tall.

Mega Drive is a much cooler name than Genesis IMO. Also think TurboGrafx is a cooler name than PC Engine. Hope I don't get banned for saying that.  [-o<

Cool, let's be Hanz and Franz!  I was inspired by Evo's weight loss, so I'm on the same mission.  Put a wing on my backpack and rode mah bike for an hour last night, and doin' the bowflex thing every other day.  Also avoiding the glutens.  Glutens be bad, yo.  Damn glutens.  I'm only on day 3 and have already lost 1/10th of a pound!!!
Deal. How do we decide who is Hanz and who is Franz?

I think "his" game is the best way to describe it. Sure he's just giving input and someone else is doing all the magic behind the scenes. He's just the name to draw attention to the product.

Pepsi and Coke are both good. I'm off of both though. Have to lose a few pounds.

Quote from: ParanoiaDragon on 09/02/2014, 03:24 AMAlso, for Vita I picked up Batman Arkham Origins.  I've heard it's decent, & is set up like Metroid. Gravity Rush is supposed to be really good, but I haven't played it yet.  Also, people rave about Tearaway, but I haven't picked it up.
Wanted to pick up the handheld version of Arkham Origins when it first came out. Looked way better on Vita than 3DS so I was out of luck...until now. I enjoyed the PS3 version. Also read about Gravity Rush and Tearaway.

Think I'm gonna have a huge backlog of games for this system when it finally arrives. The holiday on Monday delayed shipping of my Vita. Not gonna be here until Monday. :( Stupid UPS Ground.

I'll definitely pick it up when I eventually get a PS4. Loved the first two Halo games but never played any of the others.

Love this. "Since this is a one of a kind prototype, it has no packaging. Removed from package for photos only." Which one is it, packaging or no packaging?

Don't know that one. He's developing a couple cave exploring platformers that look pretty decent.
