Gaming Random Thoughts

Nov. 29, 2014  4:14 PM
 
You know what I do not like? "Gamers" who choose graphics and sound over gameplay.

There are a few people that think graphics make the game better to play when it doesn't AT all, its good because it's appealing but a few of my friends think that graphics are like the most important thing when personally I think it's gameplay and control, and the programming.

If they did do it then Sonic 06 would be the best game in the world to them.

Sonic '06 didn't have very good graphics in my opinion. I recommend you check out a game called Thomas Was Alone; it will easily settle any arguments over graphics making a game.

GameCube Adapters. So expensive! The MSRP is $20, and these outrageous ebay people are selling it for $80+. Honestly, getting the SSBU bundle is a far better idea now.

Remember when the original Halo had revolutionary graphics? xD

Wizard, Sonic 06 was an early 360 title so at the time it looked good, and the game. Thomas Was Alone is simple in visuals but was a good game and deserved those high scores.

@FlyingWaffle, I sure did! But I liked it because it was fun.

My point is that no-one should ever choose graphics over gameplay, unless the gameplay was good as it looked good but if you gave a game an extremely good score for graphics alone while it had bad gameplay then that's really stupid.

Gameplay is important but when it comes to sports games i think they should focus more on graphic because most people playing sorts games wanna use whatever team theyre using and win, no matter how bad the gameplay is, and personally i would love it if gran turismo 6 actually had more than 30 detailed interiors out of like 4000 cars, and of course i want realistic physics but my four wheel drift is lack luster because my car looks like a toy

Okay, sure, it's fine to praise the graphics, but if a game gets really positive reviews for graphics alone and nothing else then that's really not right in MY opinion, graphical updates are nice and Grand Turismo 2, 4 and 5 especially look amazing for it's time, but if people focus solely on it's graphics and not the gameplay and yes it includes sports games, then they may as well just watch whatever sports, as bad control and gameplay hinders your progress of being able to win and you won't feel like you can move the players, so you may as well watch TV, but if the players don't look like players then I guess it won't appeal, in sports games, I agree thy should focus on graphics but the gameplay must be good for them, it's just a genre that cannot seem to have only one or the other and needs both.

Then again I guess sports games need to look realistic as they emulate the actual players, but hindering their skills with bad control will be insulting in SOME way.

Just started playing Hatsune Miku Project Diva F 2nd and absolutely loving it, despite not being a fan of the Vita in general. Would recommend to anyone who likes Vocaloid and rhythm games Smile

Nintendo goods(particularly Amiibos and the "NEW" Nintendo 3DS XL - Majora's Mask Edition) were undoubtedly affected by the port strike over here, which explains all the delays in stock availability.


A friend of mine told me that because of the delay, this person/group tried to take advantage by buying multiples of the "NEW" Nintendo 3DS XL - Majora's Mask Edition and selling them for X times their market value, each.

I'm actually trading in my DSi XL to GameStop and they'll give me $60 credit. Does that sound good? Then if I trade in my moms Vita she's willing to sacrifice, they'll give her $70. Adding up to $130, $70 away from getting the 3DS XL. One major problem: My moms Vita will not turn on at all. I've tried charging it, holding the power button for 30 seconds, even disassembling it to see if a wire got jammed or something. Do you guys have any ideas? This trade in deal is my only hope to getting a 3DS XL at all.

Does GameStop accept broken systems?

I think a used DSi XL for $60 in store credit is a fair deal, especially when you compare it with the 3DS XL.

The specs and games don't lie.

Plus, the DSi is already outdated tech anyway.
I doubt there'll be ready buyers who are willing to pay $60 for it anytime soon.

GameStop is a way to go, if you're looking for a quick deal and money on the spot.

They'll accept my moms broken vita for $0. They actually said that.

I hope they were just trying to be humorous when they said that. It would sound mean if they said it with the wrong tone.

Try eBay, you can sell it 'as is.'

I understood they joked, I didn't say anything though. Do you guys know how to fix the Vita?
Feb. 23, 2015  5:48 AM
 
OwnageDerp I don't know how to fix the Vita but I know that there are guides around the internet that may help you with your problem. Do you remember how it stopped working?

Ditto glitch? i remember to get any glitch pokemon in yellow the easiest way was to go to this one trainer near cerulian city, press the start button at the exact time you walk into the trainers visablility, then teleport or fly away to a location you know has some unbattled trainers, then once that has happend go to Cinnibar island, then battle a ditto with a pokemon of desired special stat, the special stat of your pokemon that the ditto transforms into is the ID the pokemon yoofu find, then go back to cerulean city, then go up the golden rocket bridge thing. your menu will suddenly pop up, close it, and you will find your random pokemon. This is also how you get a Missingno. in yellow.

It was irony. I did exactly this to get all the Blue exclusives pokemons and pokemons that only evolve by trading. Smile

It seems that Nintendo has lowered the msrp
value of three Amiibos from their SSB4 line for the US.

- Peach
- Donkey Kong
- Yoshi

They're now $9.99 each!

Oh yeah, remember when I wanted to trade in my DSi XL to GameStop and they promised me $60? Lies. I went yesturday and they'd give me a dollar charger and $26. Why does GameStop monopolize, I wish there were other options.
Feb. 28, 2015  6:26 PM
 
Because if they didn't then they wouldn't stay in business and won't break even. Their Trading credit thing is probably the best way for them to stay in business.

However feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

See if you can sell it to a friend or family member. A few years ago, I sold my DS and all my games to my grandmother for $150 so she could give it to my cousin for her birthday.
