  1. DS Games

    Nice catch with the stylus. I preordered Phoenix Wright from Gamestop online. However, they tried to lure me into some evil $10/month subscription service with promises of a $10 gift certificate. Objection!
  2. I stepped in some Knytt

    Fun little game. Pretty easy, but very atmospheric. There's a line in the credits which says "secret game music." Is there a hidden minigame somewhere in the landscape?
  3. Forum Game

    In case anyone still cares about my loving, playable tribute to this forum, the full version of TEH FORUM GAME is out, with levels from over seven different crazy people. My level based on the Idle Forums didn't really change that much (except for one-word instructions and a much more forgiving time limit). Trailer: http://www.jonnycomics.com/teh_forum_game_trailer.wmv You can download the game here: http://www.jonnycomics.com/games.htm Edit (2/27/08): Changed download link to creator's official site.
  4. Gears of War Hype?

    I'm waiting for someone to refute you on "Sam and Max Hit the Road :tdown:"
  5. Can't say I miss the spam graveyard. It's not that it wasn't fun mocking a hated subset of humanity without fear of reprisal, but rather that the spambots were so unoriginal that it got boring after a while. It had its moments, and touched each of us in its special way before its passing. If there's one thing that the Video game industry can take from this, is that the public demands options. R.I.P. Spam Graveyard: 2006-2006
  6. Lumines Live

    It's a very weird feeling playing the demo and knowing that paying consumers have many of the same limitations as you. I'm just glad I grabbed Lumixed 4E4 before it was taken down to avoid the inevitable cease and desist.
  7. New Zelda hard to come by for GC

    Bah. Nintendo wanted a big-ticket exclusive, couldn't find one, so created one artificially.
  8. Sam and Max & Gametap

    Got a one-month trial. Sam and Max was funny, if a bit short. I've heard good things about The Last Express (just started playing it), Shadow of Destiny (originally a PS2 adventure game), and Planescape: Torment(RPG where you play an immortal being). The Earthworm Jim games are also pretty fun (except for EWJ3d), as well as Super Puzzle Fighter II and The Incredible Machine. Introversion's Uplink hacker sim was added recently, too. Honestly, right now I think I'm not going to renew GameTap and just buy the season direct from Telltale.
  9. Make loonyboi a winner!

    Heeeheee. I enjoyed the IF.
  10. Phoenix Wright soundtrack orchestrated

    Hmmm... I fail at the Internet. I can't even seem to find a place to BUY the soundtrack.

  12. CliffyB qotm

    News flash! 2old2play hates Scarlett Johansson: http://www.2old2play.com/News/Gears_of_War_Hands_On_Review
  13. Give me Big Mac, fries to go*

    I played a match against the computer. Asia vs. Europe. It was a tense game until I got my subs into position in the North Atlantic. Then came the megadeaths. Elusivespoon, you can't fight in here. This is a war room!
  14. Guitar Hero II

    http://www.gamespot.com/news/6159122.html Too bad, but I'm still hyped up like crazy. I've stooped to playing Frets on Fire to feed my Guitar Hero addiction.
  15. Uwe Boll's qote

    Actually, a Schindler's List-style zombie movie would be interesting. Set up zombies as a misunderstood, persecuted population, with the hero trying to save them from genocide at the hands of a heartless government...
  16. Sam and Max is coming back

    Lucasarts be wantin' to prove to the world that they don't need original ideas to be plunderin' in the wealth. Yarrr. 'Tis sad indeed.
  17. Doublefine Not Screwed

    The Incredible Machine rocked! The cartoon version of it was pretty rad, too. Great news for Tim & co. If any artist deserves financial solvency, it's him.
  18. Forum Game

    Glad you like it! Oh, and miffy, all dialogue comes pretty much straight from that forum topic linked to in the original post.
  19. Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time

    I liked it enough to play through it, but not as much as the original. I thought the puzzles got boring after a while. Also, I liked the added depth of the appeal system in Paper Mario:1000-Year Door, which was missing here. The dialogue was my main reason to play through it: I don't remember having too much trouble with the endgame in PiT, but I do remember an evil, evil part in the first Mario & Luigi which automatically took away most of your health after an epic boss fight and then expected you to near-perfectly dodge completely new patterns before you were able to heal yourself. Oh, and was it just me, or did most bosses seem to have a ridiculous amount of HP? They seemed to take such a long time to beat, but weren't actually too difficult when you learned their patterns.
  20. "Pepsimaaaaan!"

    Cool Spot suddenly seems less cool.
  21. Snakes on a Plane (and Gnarls Barkley)

    Someone is already working on a boardgame adaptation: Cobras in the Cockpit.
  22. Daily show segment on violent games

    Unless the temperature is in Kelvin.
  23. I joined the grassroots Psychonauts on 360 campaign with an email. I didn't pretend to be a terminally ill child, but I did sort of imply (well, explicitly state) that they make Tim, me, and the children of the world sad as long as The Most Excellent Game Psychonauts is backwards uncompatible.
  24. Half-life 2 - episode one

    I haven't seen any more of the G-Man, but I have seen in at least one other monitor after I have a feeling that it will be important later.
  25. Sam & Max

    Between this and Smash Bros I have been smiling all day. Oh, and did anyone else see that the exclamations change randomly? I especially appreciate this one: http://www.telltalegames.com/images/products/snm/samism_06.gif
