This thread is the type of nostalgia thread about gaming, gaming culture, and so on, and finally, a discussion on the final game you played when your childhood was over/ the last game you played when you decided to quit gaming. The last game I have vivid memories about is Punch Club. This game had elements of a beat 'em-up along with aspects of management. What drew me to the game was the setting. I remember fighting the teenage mutant ninja turtles. It was a hard fight, but I ended up pulling through. I'd recommend Punch Club, and the second game seems to be coming up this year.

Spyro the dragon is something else. I might be biased because i grew up with games that had shitty low poly graphics but even now it looks, plays and sounds good. I remember playing spyro when i was 5 at a friends house and the crash bandicoot racing game. But spyro still hits me like a ton of bricks when ever i remember it. I was playing spyro remastered recently and its great don't get me wrong, it doesn't beat the original.

Playing games on the bionicle website was fun, two of the games gave you FREE music like from paramore, and a dutch band called cryoshell, the ones i'm most nostalgic for was the mata nui online games, the music for one thing was incredible, the visuals was nice because you can finally see what it looked like in the books, and i love the gameplay, classic point and click with fun minigames. I remember one that was basically soccer and it was fun as heck.

I haven't played many puzzle games to be fair, but I've enjoyed puzzle 'n desu for the snes. It is a cute game where you have to push colored blocks around to make them appear in a line of three or more which makes them disappear. It also has a timer so you have to think quickly, although with emulators cheating is easy (I didn't). The music is neat, the visuals are pleasant, overall it feels quite nice to play although I've never finished it and recently have lost my saves after a retroarch update.
It is available in japanese only but it's not hard to guess what menu items mean and the story is illustrated.

If you were a real gamer you'd be able to imagine the story as you go. The selfless I block. The treacherous Z and S blocks, only playing nice with their own kind. The diplomatic T. The stalwart O block, unwilling to compromise its principles for anything... they are all characters as vivid as anything from Lord of the Rings and familiar as friends to me.

something i don't understand about dragon quest 9 is the price of goods, like holy shit why is everything overpriced? there's no way in hell i can catch up unless i grind for an hour to generate the cash to buy my crew the latest gear.

how is the story of dragon quest 11? 9 so far is actually working out well, all of the little stories pack an emotional punch for me, recently there was one about a living doll amd a giant spider and it was pretty tragic of a story.

I don't understand why i'm so stupid. So there's this place called swinedimples and i got my ass kicked by the boss and i was wondering why the game is so fucking hard, because i thougt it was an easier boss in my memory, so i looked at a guide and he's supposed to be like level 36 meanwhile i'm level 25 and to make matters worse i missed the area i was supposed to find before swinedimples with an easier boss, Batsureg. I don't even know how to reach that place? I feel like zoro from one piece i'm so fucking lost lol.

After going through the proper order the swinedimple boss was actually a cakewalk, even though i didn'g level up too much in the prosess. Batsureg also worked out because the ranger class is a glass cannon so you you are stuck with basic bitch gear till late game, and that place also had real ranger gear. Early on the only place that had gear you can use was at port laffian and by that time your level 10 so basically your stuck with level 10 gear untill you reach level 30. The vanish ability is nice during a boss battle because i basically can snipe, and i have the bonus of all the cool ranger spells and buffs to use in battle, and it made time fly faster then the previous time i played dragon quest as a martial artist.

The cockney slang in dragon quest nine is starting to piss me off. I think it's the localization, but it's just grating to read because sometimes it becomes gibberish like some parts of dark souls, like when you meet the talking cat.
Also it's weird that at first a boss battle is fucking hard but after the second try it ends up being a cakewalk? The hog guy whos name i forgot wiped out my team one by one on the first try and after painfully griding for an hour to reach level 32 i go back and the battle was fine? I think i used the same strategy of vanishing then buffing the shit out of my team mates, so i don't understand what changed at all.
Also i like the fake out where you get power ranger armor and you think your gonna do a cool boss battle and watch a killer animation sequence only to get arrested seconds later.

So i think i made it to the point where the game is damn near over in IX
The last boss battle i fought was against Godwyn, who was a bitch to beat the last time, mainly because he's a nigger who removes any buffs and status effects placed on my team and his (at the time) unexpected SECOND BOSS FIGHT took me off guard. This time i faired slightly better, my team mates died twice but other then that it was basically me just throwing random shit just to see what works. Now the royal pain in my ass will be corvis, the problem with that faggot is that he's a fucking TRIPLE BOSS FIGHT. I'm like level 30 something and i was thinking at this point i'll focus on reaching fucking 50 and maybe grind for gear and weapons. Sucks bit hey, the game is nearly fucking over.

If you have played persona 3, this thread is for you. Let's discuss the story of these games, and any developer secrets or trivia you might know.
Media wise, i heard from a cat that the manga was shit and the anime trilogy was decent and there was a sequel set 10 years later called "Persona: Trinity Souls" that was supposed to be good.

I would like to be frank as OP by saying i would have liked to play the original game but i am stuck with Reload, If i get a physical copy of the original, or FES then i will be talking about it immediately.
It seems logical to say that the original seems to be the one to focus discussions around, although some might not be able or willing to emulate it, Persona 3 portable is controversial due to it having to cut corners to even exist but it probably was the first way people experienced persona 3, and the added female protagonist seems to be something people enjoy. Persona 3, Reload is a diffrent beast. It's also newer but with changes made that let hardcore ps3 fans down and some changes that they enjoyed but overall to them, it appears to be at best mediocre from their perspective.
I haven't done any research or read or watched any reviews that spoiled the story for me so everything i mention is from my point of view and i'll be blind or oblivious from any perspective people have of reload, or alterations from the original game that only exist in reload.

it was revealed that i was getting monitored by shuji, and he dismissed yukaris complaints about it, and afterwards damn near let yukari get killed so that my persona power would activate. when she basically admitted what was going on i personally felt like she's one of the only trusteorthy person on SEES. not a fan of shuji, and i'm getting a feeling that SEES is nothing but a glownigger operation and that even if i can trust the others, everyone is getting used somehow for some stupid fucking goal i don't know about yet like it seems too simple for shit to be like "join the government and save the world"
i don't understand why i was made leader, if its another glowop or if it's bad writing, i feel that yukari should have been although to be honest she couldn't even use the evoker so it seems like maybe it had to be this way?
junpei seems too green to even join SEES, a part of me is wondering if he's gonna fuck up somehow, but at the same time he also made an interesting point, why make the evoker a gun? he pointed out it was nutty for someone to like, point a gun at their face and pull the trigger, why not a remote or button? maybe the fear reaction or the
desensitization to death?

Yeah i checked and its already april 23 in game and i pretty much knocked out tartarus on april 20. I mean fully wiped tartarus, all 22 floors, all chests, all shadows even the bosses without skipping anything. by the time it was over my team had no SP left besides junpei, and we all had our health knocked down to a quarter, with no healing items left that we got from the start. From 5000 starting shekels to buy shit got doubled to roughly 20000. This was on normal difficulty so maybe i should have started on something harder lol.

The full moon event was bitchin'
Nice visual flair and some drama with a really cool boss. I liked the timed battle aspect that got turned up every time the boss fast forwarded time, i was lucky as hell to be well prepared and at a decent level, otherwise i would've probably gotten fucked. I don't know why junpei was acting out though. Afterwards it was comfy actually being able to hang out with junpei (have a soft spot for comic books and i really like arcades and junpei having a great voice actor is a plus) and i'm looking forwards to fucking finally getting to know the other teammates.

So i made it to the third full moon event and a bit further after that, like the 50th floor of tartarus, i enjoy the tone of the game and the situation where your just a guy in a fucked up situation with this unreal bullshit messing up the real world, hard to explain but it's like lovecraft or fucking ghostbusters as a somewhat shitty example. Unlike 5 where your just a superhero.
I wanted to throw up in my mouth though when you get new outfits, they do this faggoty "the right stuff" slow walk as if they expect me to say "wow so cool!"
How about stop with that bullshit? It's just as fucking retarded as every other thing reusing the fucking akira slide like fuck you, stop it.
Maybe this is just me, but also it feels easy as fuck, like i don't have to put too much effort into survival like i thought i'd reach a difficulty spike sooner or later.

Currently playing Manor Lords again ever since the Early Access release and I was already mad back then that the game lacked basic features such as another AI player on the map and honest to god with the most recent update I think it's the exact same release that I played a year ago.

The capcom fighting collection is actually pretty fucking good, part of my problem as usual is,just the typical "skill issues" but the games are really fun.
Cyberbots has a fun story, visuals and gameplay and not only are there sperate characters with diffrent storylines, but several diffrent mechs to choose from, and diffrent usages per mech, if i had issues against a boss, then changing out to a diffrent mech with a diffrent skillset and fighting style might give me the edge i need.
Red earth is outstanding too, has some cool features like "leveling up" and getting buffs against attacks kinda like a fusion of an RPG and a fighting game. You also get special endings based on stuff you did and i ended up getting the bad ending lol.
Played a bit of darkstalkers, i love the characters and OST.
Still pretty dogshit at streetfighters lol, even at the most easiest difficulty, the good thing is that there's a "training mode" so maybe if i work hard enough i can break through just panic buttonmashing to win.

I understand there always are whales who are willing to throw an immense amount of money at anything but isn't there a point where one should draw the line? More than half of the game is behind different DLCs sometimes, and other times it's just costume bloat. Worst part is that sometimes the DLC simply stops being available for whatever reason so you'd end up getting permanently blocked from some features or a chunk of a game if you don't pirate or mod it. Will normalfags ever draw a line on this shit or is the industry doomed to continue like this until something drastic happens?
I picked the most offensive images I could find, feel free to share other ones you know.

They made the new dlc for persona 3, a remake of the answer arc, they release it as a, singular item for 20 bucks, then they remove the original 20 dollar dlc and combine it with cosmetics and raise the price to 30 bucks. That's really stupid if you ask me. Especially since if you bought FES back in the day and got the dlc baked into the disc.

Not counting inflation, 30 USD could get you the FES edition back in the day as well. Keep in mind, this was before internet distribution of content was widely feasible in Japan and part of the west, as it was a rather new concept (unless you were an Xbox/Xbox 360 user, where it is rather common at that point).

I played through Looney Tunes on the Game Boy recently. It's pretty top tier for the system but the bosses are odd. I can think of other instances where Japanese developers given a western property make up weird enemy designs for games, but for Looney Tunes in particular the juxtaposition just struck me.

This thread is for discussion of the series Metal Gear Solid

It's strange because this game was hyped up by my parents for my entire life, i already knew of the story and the characters since i was a kid. My dad played all the games and my mom used to watched him. It was a pain because i was never allowed to play them, and i constantly had to wait untill "i was older" and even then they sold damn near all of it, i had to buy copies of what i could find third hand.
I played most of the games besides 4, revengance, metal gear 2 for the msx and metal gear solid. For what it's worth, It's a SOLID amirite series overall with both great gameplay, and story.

Although, zeroes was supposed to be the first mission in Phantom pain, and konami cut a fuck ton of content out of phantom pain and in a way, its like you as the player feel the phantom pain of what the game really should have been. I think a good chunk of lost content was leaked on youtube which includes a "mission 51". Also one of the lost missions is venom snake returning to where the whole ground zeroes inccident took place.

Playing Metal gear 2: Solid Snake.
It's much more fun then the first game. I realised that i'm an idiot and there was lasers in a room and i didn't use the goggles i just found to make them visible...
There was a room on the first floor with two guards and if you hide under a desk and stay still for a while, a military theme will play and the guards will salute and a voice from the speakers will say "attention" which is pretty wild.
I like how you can crouch in this game and how guards can be distracted and how they can roam around to try and find you unlike the first game where they just stand there.

I don't know if there's a lore reason for miller being useless in metal gear 2 unless he's actually a decoy or something.
So, i beat the first boss, which was pretty thrilling since it took me a long while to figure out how to kill him because of his habit to teleport. I like the amount of dialoge from the character unlike the previous game where there isn't much really.
Fuck NATO
I was happy to see that they re-used a throwaway character from the last game, it turns out the original name for the character was "blackcollar" which is an action sci-fi book with a similar character who's a space ninja and the name "black color" was a shitty translation from the english translators and they later changed the name to fucking "black ninja". i feel like that sequence of snake realising the governmet he's working for are a bunch of niggers is kind of related to mgs3 with big boss realising that the boss was a fall guy for the government, maybe thats just me though.

They finally updated the metal gear volume 1 collection to use 4K ultra HD. Really kept me waiting there.

I picked up metal gear 2 after a long while, i had just came back from staking the green hat guy through the jungle so i wouldn't get lost. I totally fucking forgot what i was supposed to do so after getting a stinger missle i backtracked to the sandy area and sure enougth, another boss battle but this time with a helicopter.
I'm a fan of the gimmick weapons and boss fights. I'm also a fan of the backtracking because atleast in this game i'm curious as of what's hiding behind locked doors.

I killed the end in metal gear solid three without having to do his boss fight, levels earlier during his secomd appearance near a warehouse the boss, her son and the end are discussing whatever bullshit amx i figured "fuck it, might as well kill that guy" so i did and the game fucking took it into account story-wise. I didn't realise afterwards he was supposed to have a massive boss fight because for me i had to face revolver ocelot's elite unit. I probably should next time, i heard it was legendary.
