Hey its nothing personal, we're just laughing at the fact that they saw a "Phoenix Mode" necessary at all! I mean, if you are playing FE on Phoenix Mode, you might as well just play a dating simulater at this point. I mean, the battles are completely pointless at this point, in order for it to make any actual sense, you would have to literally suck SO bad, that you manage to get completely swept in one turn on easy Mode! Casual mode made a lot of sense, and I can totally respect not wanting to deal with perma death, but immortality?
And weapons breaking was one of the hardest aspect of Lunatic mode in Awakening, if you didn't budget you weapon uses wisely, the game was literally impossible to beat early on. Not anymore! Weapons breaking was a huge part of the strategy in the early levels of Lunatic, but now that challenge is gone.
And I was merely misinformed on the triangle thing, I looked it up and its not as big a deal. But it does add multiple weaknesses to weapons, which again, is making things easier then they need to be.
And then gay marriage seemed unnecasarry IMO, but whatever. Again they did it for shippers.
All in all, though yes I do realize that I do not have to use any features I'm unhappy with (except weapon uses) but we were just making fun of the stupidity of Phoenix mode.
Dude, I know its obnoxious. You can tell the developers really buckled under the pressure of the begginers, and people who just want to play for character shipping. I hope they bring back the triangle in future titles. Anyhoo, I'm probably gonna get this game used.
Phoenix Mode though? Was that REALLY necessary?? Ugh!
I kinda liked the end reel, showing that all the characters were really only actors. It gave the game a certain charm. But holy cow, it would've been dumb if he had shaken hands with all his fallen adversaries afterward...
But hey, that's why if I wanna play a good shooter, I boot up good ol' steam, and get my Borderlands on! I do love GoldenEye though... Really awesome game!
"In this game, we've decided to implement the technology of the Wii Balance board, to move Link across such great distances. So instead of merely 'controlling' Link, its more like you actually ARE Link! There are still a few bugs, but we think this will get kids imaginations running, and get them running too! We hope you enjoy this as much as we have been."
Nah, NA has had like 2 free MH4U themes. I would still like to get my hands on an AOT:Humanity in chains theme. No interest In the game, but the theme is cool!
(If anyone has an AOT theme they don't want, gimme a shout!)
Ha-ha! I had no idea that was Elijah Wood, how funny! I've only ever seen the first BTTF, but I am planning on watching them all soon! Really love that movie. And I'll probably have to download Wild Gunman for the occasion
I have only ever played the 1st Rune Factory, for the DS. I used to play the CRAP out of Harvest moon when I was younger, so when I heard that there was a harvest Moon with swords and monsters.... I was all in! Great game to. Now I need to get a copy of 4, haha...
Dude, wish you the best of luck. The idea of a FFVII Limited/collectors edition PS4 system bundle is literally the only thing holding me back from buying one. I know its a long way off, but it'll be worth it methinks. That is, if it even happens. It's killing me too! I have been wanting to play The Witcher 3 so bad!
Well we are just far enough off the road for Comcast not to throw in a free installation of the new cables. They usually don't charge for that when you buy a plan, but since we are more than 500 feet away from the road they want us to pay an extra $1,000+. It's a total rip off. I might have paraphrased the exact details a bit, but that's the gist of it.
In other words, I can sympathize with you man. That's why I'm on a retro gaming spree right now! Lol! (FFVII, Fire Emblem, Chrono Trigger, LInk to the past, all that good stuff.)
Same. Getting 2g of data currently, and in a house with 12 internet using individuals, online gaming is all but impossible. I don't know why we even OWN Splatoon, as we can't even play it.
I hate voice chat anyways. You always get that one dude who either takes the game WAY to seriously, or is just a jerk and cusses like a sailor for no good reason. Personally, I don't want to listen to that. People are just obnoxious.
I don't know think SS was delayed much, if at all. I say this because there is a clear nod to the "Zelda 25th Anniversary" early on in the game, so I'm pretty sure that was a planned thing.
Yeah, I really hope they do it the right way this time around. The Wii U's NNID management system sucks. You shouldn't have to call the customer support line just to unlink your ID, or access it from a different system. I think they were just overly concerned with trolls taking advantage of multiple Miiverse accounts. I never even use the app anymore, since they did that aweful redesign.
Will prolly go again when it comes to Atlanta. I've been twice so far, and it always makes me tear up! To any VGM fans out here though, I HIGHLY reccomended Taylor Davis' show that has been touring the US. I went on the 9th, and it was absolutely fantastic. On par with distant worlds, and Zelda Symphony for sure, If not better!
They talking like a release in the US is kinda an afterthought, I thought that's were there base of operations was. Hopefully they release it here in the US, as I am extremely excited about the figure!
Ate Amiibo cards the new "hard-to-find-sell-onEbay-for-a-billion-dollars-thing"? I still haven't bought any, haha. Prolly just gonna stay out of this one, as I really have no interest in ACHHD anyway. However, I will buy the KK Slider Amiibo FIGURE when it comes out. Because KK is the bomb-diggity.
That's the thing though, he broke the law. If they didn't do anything about it, and just let him go then people would think it's alright to make profit of the Pokemon Company's IP. And that's not tolerable. It's not about how much the guy was making, or anything like that. I'm sure the guy was just doing it all in good fun, but he should have thought a little harder before doing that.
If you don't screw up every now and then, you never learn.
Shoot! That's awesome. I didn't get any extra 5 dollar coupon code, but I did get the free shipping/display case and 10% off future order code! I am totally psyched out of my mind about this figure. Although, I am still waiting for my Lucina Figma to arrive, xnx
Ha-ha yes! Still need to play all those old FE games. I wanna get a REVO so I can play the roms for all the old Japanese games, in English if possible. Is this figure based on the Shadow Dragon version of Marth?
I need it has! I have walked into numerous GameStop's in the past weeks and have seen an abundance of Retro 3 packs, and Targets are simply stocked full of Dr. Mario! Still haven't gotten around to a Toys R Us though for Bowser Jr.
I think they are finally getting a handle on things, which is great!
I didn't even have to read the article, and I already strongly disagree. Smart phone games are, at best, good time wasters. At least that's my opinion.
More power to anyone who does, bit I honestly don't see the point in even wasting the time of day to get theat good. However, I wish everyone here the best of luck!
