    Let's talk about timeless videogame design! (with a slight aside at the beginning)

    To avoid diverting the Dante's Inferno topic any further, here's a topic where Magus and Mora can rip into me to their hearts' desire for not playing all the old 16 bit games that I missed along the way.


    Fire away, gents!

    In all fairness, I too have never played Super Metroid. So you aren't alone there.

      You're just a jack-of-all-losery-trades, aren't you?

        I think you're hurting my cause more than helping it, Jamos.

          I don't think that is really possible at this point, silly. :3

              First off, I do not own a computer.

              Second, I downloaded Super Metroid (as an example, seeing as how this is the one Magus and Mora continually get their panties in a bunch over) for the Wii's Virtual Console, played it for about 10 minutes, and have yet to pick it back up.


              It's moreso that without the luxury of nostalgia goggles, it's sometimes difficult to go back and enjoy these games (for me). Tried to play the DS Chrono Trigger, tried to play Super Metroid...hell, I even tried to replay the original Metroid (yes, I HAVE played that one...many times, as a matter of fact) redone as Metroid Zero Misson or whatever on the GBA, and none of the above held my interest.

                How the hell does somebody your age not have a computer?

                I mean. Uh....

                I guess you can go watch gameplay videos on youtube. You can still appreciate something, even if you've never played it. Sometimes a game will just hook you right away, and sometimes they don't, be honest about it and to hell what others think.

                And Mora is always an elitist jerk. Its his 'thing'.

                  I first played Super Metroid in 2007. So, y'know.

                    Oh, I don't really care what Mora and Magus think. As for Mora being an elitist jerk, I think he, marcus and myself are all in that same boat together, so it really doesn't bother me.

                    This topic was made more out of trying to keep all the "WHY ARE YOU PLAYING CRAPPY GAMES LIKE THAT IF YOU WON'T EVEN GIVE SUPER METROID A CHANCE?" comments in one consolidated place.

                      Which is exactly why I think it would be pointless for either Magus or I to even comment in this topic. So with that, I'm off~

                        As opposed to just ignoring the comments altogether and not giving the other person a chance to make a "witty" response?

                        There was really no need to create a whole new topic for this.

                        I ain't being hateful. But...quit it.

                          Why do you need to draw attention to yourself at your own expense? For ****'s sake.

                          You wanted to know why I have been so hostile towards you lately? It's because of crap like this. The self-depreciating humor isn't scoring you any points. You are not a 9.5.

                            I laughed so hard when I read that in the roll call.

                            Lately you've been more of a four.

                              i actually find myself only enjoying retro games.

                              i downloaded ys book I & II for the VC.

                              and while the game is seriously like an rpg maker game.

                              it's fun!
