Re: ESA Attacks World Health Organisation's Decision To Classify Gaming Addiction As A Mental Disorder

Shock_Tart

People and media have been attacking the gaming industry for years on end. If anyone remembers the sniper who was killing people the media said he learned how to use a gun by playing video games. There are lots of other stupid crap like that over the years as well. The thing is anything can become an addiction. Ita called mental addiction, chemical addiction has to do with substances that cause the body to think it has to have a particular substance, like nicotine in ciggaretts. If you are classifying gamers as addicts then you would have to classify people who have any form of hobby they spend lots of time on. Like avid book readers or sports fanatics.

Re: Potential Wreck-It Ralph Sequel Should Have a Moment "Perfect for Mario"

Shock_Tart

to be honest i didnt really feel a huge need to see a mario cameo just because bowser was in the movie. the movie was great as is, the movie was based around a character in a game who was supposed to be a villan so it obviously felt more natural to add bowser there instead of mario, if they tried to add every character as a cameo from said game for each game the movie would have felt like they were trying to shove big name characters down the audiences throat instead of making a good storyline. they did a great job and the story line was awesome, im actually glad they didnt make big name video game characters main characters in the movie, if they did it would have seemed that gaming companies were just fighting for screen time and recognizably so they could boost sales.

Re: Resident Evil Revelations Set to Infest Wii U

amazing game, i wonder if they will make a co op storyline option like they origonally planned to do but just didnt have enough time to put it thorugh. it would be definatly worth getting on a consol that gave its look and resolution a much better form.

Re: Latest Iwata Asks Episode Reveals Why Paper Mario Sticker Star Abandoned RPG Elements

Shock_Tart

the first paper mario is what got me hooked on the paper mario series, long gameplay and storyline as well as a great set of characters to use and interact with, never played the thousand year door but i REALLY want to. and super paper mario threw out the rpg element of the game more or less but it made up for it in the amount of abilities and characters to use as well as story and length of play. sticker star was a great game itself but it is lacking compared to the other ones. i liked the sticker element of the game it was nice, but i felt like i was getting the short end of the stick. paper mario was known as a game for being very lengthy and having a lot of different characters to talk and interact with. i honestly thought that having just toads as npc's was more or less just lazy, despite them having different personalities which they really kind of didnt. the story was kind of simplistic and kind of dry, and the game was much shorter than the usual paper mario's. i really hope this dosent turn into a copy/paste game like the New super mario brothers. this paper mario was good but i have to say it doesnt rightly stack up to the rest of them.

Re: Miyamoto Puzzled As To Why Anyone Would Want A New F-Zero

Shock_Tart

honestly i would like to see a brand new game come out, new characters and stories. the zelda and mario remakes are nice but eventually they get stale. im not saying i WOULDNT like a new f zero game. honestly i think it could be a rather fun game with the wii u. but a new game by nintendo all together would be nice, i would just ask that they plz not make another FPS, there have been tons of those spewing out these last few years.

Re: Project X Zone Struggles At Japanese Retail

Shock_Tart

man, you know for the longest time i thought it was just a one on one fighter cause thats what the screenshots looked like. after seeing the gameplay it takes a lot after shinging force, which makes me think that sega was the one who designed the rpg style. this really makes me wanna play it now.

Re: PETA Targets Pokémon Black & White 2 in Latest Campaign

Shock_Tart

peta is idiotic, it is a fictonial game based in a fictonial world with fictonial characters. im sorry i dont see children who play pokemon grab their nearest pet, shove it inside a ball and make it fight the neighbor kid's dog. its sad when children understand what it real and what isnt and peta who is (supposedly) run by adults cant seem to grasp reality.

Re: Two Tribes Founder: Wii U Could Become A "Casual Haven"

Shock_Tart

honestly i see his point with what he is saying. its like when x box rushed the first 360 system out because they wanted to be the cool kids on the block, instead of waiting and imporiving like nintendo and sony did with the ps3 and wii. shortly after it came out there was a slew of x boxes breakiing down and they didnt have the power of its two newer competitors. but they upgraded and added new hardware and are now up to par. now i see nintendo rushing out a new system to be better than the other two instead of waiting it out, and i see the same result happening. they are going to have to do some major hardware updates in the future to be on the same playing level with the other two systems when they come out. however this will not stop me from getting a wii u. lol im stoked its coming out so soon.

Re: The Binding of Isaac Creator Still Thinks the Game Could Come to 3DS

Shock_Tart

its a good game and all and i would like it on a handheld but i think the creator is beating a dead horse trying to bring it to nintendo, they said no once before. and i dont think he exactly gets why, updating the graphics and adding new maps, bosses, etc. isnt going to change their mind. he would have to dumb it down so they can slap a T or E rating on it. honestly if he did that it would ruin the game.
