Another one will pop up. I've never been huge into emulation past SNES, but should something like that pop up again, I might consider to go as far as PS2.

The part that really pisses me off, is that games like Terranigma, Bahamuts Lagoon, and 7th Saga 2 will start to fade and not have people playing them. All because Nintendo wanted to get Greedy. Its one thing to protect your own IP, but leave it at your own IP. Stuff that you make yourself. Not stuff that you sign your name on to put on your system.

Lesser known companies deserve better than that. I think the backlash towards Nintendo will force them to rethink their original idea. Companies don't want to be forced into choosing a single platform and be stuck with that platform. You might see more and more 3rd party developers choose to ignore Nintendo now, as they have ignored Sony or Microsoft in the past.

Maybe I'll be wrong, but I think companies will start going towards Steam with an option to use a controller.

What a worthless character addition


Taking away roster slots from more deserving characters


Its not even a character slot.... its an echo slot, meaning he will essentially be an alternate skin to someone like Marth or Ike.

You will still get characters like Travis Touchdown, Professor Layton and Crono. But now there are more options, since you can essentially have an echo version of a character from the same series. You have your Zelda/Sheik, and your Toadstool/Daisy, but now you have options for characters like your Luigi/Waluigi, Falco/Slippy, Mega Man/Bass, and Cloud/Sephiroth.

And as they add more natural characters, you get more options for Echo characters, meaning the roster can grow exponentially without being too big on the character screen.

The outfits are looking better but overall it still looks like crap. I should clarify. With the amount of time they have with the series, games should be released every 2 years rather than every year. Sure they will lose out on money, but the game itself will look way better than 2 years from now, if that makes any sense.

Easier way to think about it:

2k18 > 2K20 will look better than 2k18 >2k19>2k20. Simply because they will have more time to work out all the bugs in the game, as well as redefine the engine they are using. Its why the Call of Duty games, love them or hate them, are starting to look that much better than before. They have 2-3 studios working on them, meaning each developer gets more time to make the game look better and work out all the bugs before release.

Something 2K series hasn't been able to do as every game is rushed.

Isaac - Ultra Hard Challenge Seriously, F this challenge. All floors have Curse of the Labyrinth, Curse of the Lost, Curse of the Maze and Curse of the Blind. Meaning, you don't know what items your picking up, any time you enter a new room you could be teleported to a random room, you can't read the map, all items are unknown, and every floor is twice as big. No hearts drop so the only way to recover health is by picking up health up items.

Its pretty much you redoing the entire game over and over until you find a winning combination.

Trails in the Sky - Hard Mode Now, there is a mode harder than this, but dear god this was frustrating. I was overleveled for every area and still every monster was kicking my ass, I had to die a few times to get bosses to delevel enough so that I could go to the next area and repeat the process.

Street Fighter 4 - Seth Not so much a difficulty as just an insanely hard boss fight on normal to high difficulty. To go along with Seth, I think that unlocking Kliff in GGX2, and beating Shao Khan in MK Trilogy are also way up there. Shin Rugal and Shin Akuma from CvS2 also comes to mind.

FF12 also had some weird difficulty jumps. Some parts of the game were insanely easy, and then you get to the next area and you barely scrape by, only to find out that the area after that was also insanely easy.

I'm wide framed too. I wear a shirt size large but the smallest size my neck fits in when fully buttoned (dress shirt) is a 3XL, which looks like an exaggerated hospital gown on me.


Don't even get me started with button up dress shirts or necklaces. Because I have a naturally thick neck, I have to have the top button undone. Was one of the groomsmen at my buddies wedding, and damn thing felt like it was choking me the entire time. Soon as dinner came around, I had to undo the top button.

I mean, I know I'm fat, there is no denying that. 274 lbs at 5'10, but I've always had a thick frame. I tend to use the Alex Louis Armstrong bit to describe myself. My fathers side of the family is short and dumpy, the tallest is 5'8. My mothers side of the family all the men are 6 foot tall and over. If I actually bothered to work out, I'd probably have that Armstrong look(save for having hair, no mustache and only being 5'10), but I'm lazy, and would rather spend my off days playing video games, and eating decent food rather than dieting.

How does a man physically incapable of moving break his arm?


guessing you never bothered to watch the video. Yes, he is physically capable of moving. He is no longer 600 lbs, down to about 370ish now. He broke his arm after stepping off a curb the wrong way and falling full force on to it. That's at least 120-150 lbs on his arm, so its not surprising it broke.

His arm was sandwiched between 2 solid objects with no where to go. But to be fair, no matter how much you weigh that will happen to you. As they say, it isn't the fall that kills you, its the sudden stop in motion.

I was the same way when I was 190 lbs. Flipped over my bike handlebars and sandwiched my arm between the pavement and my body on the way to try and stop myself from falling(naturally you put your arm out to try and stop yourself). Broke my Ulna doing so.

Not all the characters were bad. Actually it had some really good characters, they just never joined your party permanently in most cases.

Ashe is a great character. Larsa is great. Cid (both of them) are great characters. Gabranth is good.

The weakest parts of 12 was the monotonous gameplay which was addressed a bit in the TZA version with 4x speed and not everyone has identical license boards.


And that's a fair way to put it, I mean, I really liked Reddas, he was by far my favorite character in the game. But his length of stay was way too short, and then they went and made sure he wouldn't come back....

When you purchase pc parts, there is no telling if things are going to work or not. I've sent back almost an entire computer throughout the years because parts were faulty. You can't tell if something is going to work or not until you get home and install it in your computer, only then will you find out if you got a faulty stick of RAM, or a failing motherboard.

Everything should be tested prior to purchase, or shipping.
