This would go well in my web games thread but i'll post it here coz it's relevant. Kind of.....

Hilarious game if you've ever played QWOP.

Ok it turns out this is not a unused track after all. This track is used in the beginning of the Guilin chapter for the Dreamcast version. I labeled this "unused" because I was using the Xbox port as a reference. If you listen and compare both versions it's obvious they are not the same.

well that was true 5-10 years ago, but now it's so common that they don't really care at all, nearly every teenager/young men owns a game console, if she starts saying she doesn't want a guy who plays video games then she is putting herself in to a hell of a quest

Not just that, but ever since the Wii and Rockband came out there've been some games that appeal to alot more people and are used for parties and things like that. Remember a few years ago we'd get drunk and say "WANNA PLAY ROCKBAND?!" "YEEAH!".

Saying that is now like saying "I don't like listening to music" and "I don't like watching movies/tv".

@segata true, but I was saying it more out of amusement than spite, the name made me laugh because it's so stereotypically American

I don't even technically "count" as american, there were a lot of people born in the states like me that got tortured during the late 90s FALN hunts. I take no offense when making fun of americans because apparently Caribs don't count. I am a New Yorker though, generally I don't call it that I just call it 1TC but most people don't know what I'm talking about when i say that. I think "Freedom tower" is a shit name as well.
ah it's not that, it's just the way you answered didn't seem like you saw I was joking, a lot of things get misinterpreted on forums due to the lack of tone, couldn't find anything about the FALN hunts, what happened there?

Oh never heard of them? I'll put some links, if you want to know more but theres a socialist party in Puerto Rico called the FALN. They sometimes do business with a gang called the Netas. Since the Netas are mostly political prisoners and assorted Caribs, back in the 90s after a string of bombings, the US government went looking for terrorists in areas of Puerto Rico densely populated with said Caribs. Basically the kinda of places where they don't know what Puerto Rico is, and just call the island Borinquen. The place I'm from Cebrada Cruz or "El Cuco"(The Boogyman) is one such place. During this time, they just snatched people up and drove them over to a base, some people came back, some didn't, but anyone they caught by themselves got a beating, myself included.

This thread has basically tuned into this scene: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RYermKUnDJk

I think Carmain probably used "gain the amount of medals" in the negative sense, as in it's the reason we didn't get as many as USA. Neo just misinterpreted this sentence as it was quite easy to do. Shall we just forget everything that went after this point, and bury the hatchet?

You should probably add that those are for the PS3.

I also like 13 and 13-2. Great games imo. Not the best in the series ofcourse but certainly not the worst. I loved the art style, graphics, characters and most of all, battle system. I would welcome an evolution of that system in a heart beat for 15.

Yakuza 5 is rejigging its combat system to include dance battles and brawls that blend more seamlessly with the rest of the game.

These details emerged from Japanese gaming magazine Famitsu (via Andriasang). When playing as teenage wannabe pop sensation Haruka, players will engage in dance offs against rivals in a rhythm action game set to five genres: hip hop, house, idol, jazz and rock. Successful moves will build up a gauge that when full can be used to unleash special Heat moves.

Upon the end of each dance battle she'll be judged by spectators. If she wins, her "expression power" rises, helping her level up.

As for the more familiar bone-crunching brawls, you'll have to battle right on the spot with an encountered foe, as opposed to the staid mechanics of yesteryear that slowly transitioned into a closed off arena for battles. Purportedly enemy AI and animations have been spruced up, too.

A fair few of them probably are bots but as I understand it our "Who is online"is not limited to real time activity.

If I had to guess I would say it displays all users over a time period of 1 hour or so which would make it possible for a single guest to be counted more than once. I could be wrong about that last thing though.
unless if they have a dynamic IP I don't think it would count them more than once, I know we have lots of lurkers though as every time someone signs up or an old member comes posts after being away for ages always starts with "I've been lurking" but you're probably right for it not being real time, I know when I sign out I'm noted as online for pretty long after, we probably have over 100 bots as well considering how they love this place or maybe they're just trying to unite with their master kiba :lol:

EDIT: ah I stand mistaken, as soon as I sign out I am counted as offline, I guess they fixed that

Coby had been "lurking" since 2004 :lol:

I just use my own judgement when linking images. If the site allows it and is big enough, it shouldn't be an issue. If it's some low tier monstrosity, I just upload it so it won't end up broken down the road.

The SNES had a TON of really good anime/manga RPGs. Ranma, Tenchi Muyo, Gundam, Yu-Yu-Hakusho, Sailor Moon, Dragon Ball-Z: attack of the Saiyains and Legendary Super Saiyin. They all had really interesting battle systems too.

Wrath of the Lich King Collector's Edition, I actually have one of these already but for £3 I picked it up as a double. It comes with everything; the art book, mouse mat, making of DVD, soundtrack on CD, and the trading cards, one of which was an unused redeemable prize in-game.

Bought this for £3, it's 100% working (in my experience Nintendo hardware is pretty bulletproof) and I'm sure the game is probably worth more than that alone.

Becks is bloody everywhere, I find. It's hard to get away from the geez. He's either on some chatshow or at some event that makes it's way onto the news, or is sticking his groin in my face with all those underwear adverts. He also seems to have a "collaboration range" with about 100 different clothing manufacturer's. Oh, and he also has some scent they were recently advertising on TV. I literally can't escape him. It's starting to make me a bit mad, and I sometimes have a "Becks breakdown" in which I start hallucinating everyone to all have David Beckham's face.

Ahem, an Irishman walks out of a bar.

I used to know a lot of people who liked the same games as me, but they got all boring and spent more time getting drunk and high. Even when I'm working I generally find people who play sports games and shooters. Thankfully my partner, my roommate and my girlfriend all play the same kinds of games as me.

Makes sense people wanting to make sure their taxes are spent properly since they work hard for that money. It seems more understandable people being concerned about their healthcare system as that is what looks after them should they get old and ill or just get a disease like cancer.

Then again we can just forget all that shit and get angry about Kojima making another Metal Gear game.

Japanese people always claim i look like harrison Ford, but i dont take it as a compliment Im like "Damn he could be my Grandfather" and they are like "no, like when he was young." I dunno, then again all westerners look the same anyways i guess.

I can sort of see it, If I remember those pics of you in the anniversary thread correctly. But I think you looked less miserable than Harrison. Harrison is a bit of a miserable looking old dog isn't he, in a slightly endearing way though.

@South Carmain
I hear ladies like a man with power. Maybe you should play your Putin trump card more often :lol:

Seriously, look at his picture then look at this. You'll wont know which ones which!

But like the Gulf War, it's not the final word. Now, allow me shock and awe you. The problem with gay marriage is that it's being forced on communities that want to define marriage themselves, as has always been the right of free people: to make their society the way they want. Even people who support gay marriage attempt to organize displays of democratic force to impress the world, thereby undermining their cause, if it turns out a majority of people still oppose it. Then they get a sympathetic judge to overrule the majority. Well, obviously that just breeds more resentment, and rightly so. That has been the history of this stupid, false, and divisive battle since the beginning, at least in the United States. And now our unwise leaders want to make it worse by trying to force such decisions from the top, and enforce one way of life throughout all the states and territories. Only naive people could want this - people who think you can force what you think is right on people who believe it to be wrong. Look at the long-term destruction and hatred caused by the last U.S. Civil War. That's still not over. Was it worth it? Well, keeping the Union together was worth it, and the South needlessly rebelled, as Lincoln would not have freed the slaves because of all the reasons I just mentioned. Imagine a different world that realized that not every group of people would ever agree on everything, nonetheless respected the right of groups to run things the way they want, and all sides respect territories in which anyone could live who they'd like, among the kind of people they prefer. That is sanity. That could have been a very different history where slaves could have been freed without bloodshed, the South wouldn't have been devastated, and millions of their happy descendants would be alive today. The alternative was and is forcing billions of people who fundamentally disagree with each other to obey the precepts of only one group. That is wrong and it's impossible. Nobody ought to face an inquisition to justify their beliefs in logical terms, when it is obvious that no moral beliefs are rational. Almost every value any person holds dear is completely irrational. That doesn't make them wrong, anymore than not being able to logically explain why revenge is wrong would necessarily make certain kinds of murder legal in modern Western nations. In fact, I'd wager most people think revenge is right in most circumstances. But if you try to explain something as simple as why you love your mother, you'll probably miserably fail in the attempt, or utter some obvious facts or common sentiments that do not logically explain why you do what you do. So, stop pretending that it's rational to support this or that social movement, and anyone who can't explain their opposition is an irrational moron. People shouldn't have to explain what they feel, and if they're wrong, you shouldn't force them to change, as if you know better what's right. Oh, you can think you've won by getting a mere law changed on paper, but no one has any power over the hearts of individuals, but individuals themselves. And if you're seriously naive enough to think that humanity or the world can be perfected, you've entirely missed the point of reality. If nature hasn't taught you the truth already, let me enlighten you: this life, this universe, is the place where nobody gets what they want. This is the place where we survive what we don't want. The whole of nature is fundamentally ordered to this test. So stop being a pussy, and leave your fellow bastards alone. Life is too fragile and short, and experience too effective a teacher, to indulge in the fantasy that just one more law, one more social protest, will magically transform this infinite space into your own personal paradise - a sparkling new world where the countless billions who are just like you will suddenly and inextricably harmonize with all your hopes and aspirations like a flashmob. Get real. Talk about the Himalayan summit of self-centeredness. Only hardcore intense spoiled brats think this way, which is why you usually only find such wankery among the richest nations.

Can't forget to type in black!

That brick wall was supposed to enlighten you, but don't worry since it fails at doing it. Kiba uses the deceitful Aristotle's logic all the time so it's not worth shitting your panites over. In this case, he also completely ignores the fact that he is against something that he himself does all the time to others (as a part of those 'communities' he advocates so strongly for that his nipples go all wild).


You do know you talk some absolute balls sometimes dont you?

Dorian vs SC

SC: Dorian's saying you're more a designer than an artist, and textures are more on the artistic side of things.

Dorian: Yeah, SC's talking from the viewpoint of a designer, but you don't actually know whether or not he's good with textures. Your opinion's based more on his philospohy than his skills.

Absolutely love Zimings Shenmue Dojo Youtube Channel. Anytime i want to listen to something Shenmue related, i can find it there with a few clicks. Needed some Shenmue OST tonight!!

When I talked about the modelling in Shenmue, I was all along talking about it from the art perspective, which you idiotically shifted to a pathetically shallow discussion about technicals. It's people like you that make generic PC games that are buried under the sands of time because that's how "far" shallow people can get their "vision".


Pretty damn ignorant that man. First off, not every game is designed with the intention of being an artistic masterpiece. In a lot of cases, time and budget restrictions mean that the main focus is - and should be - the gameplay. Everything else follows.

And besides this, "people like [SC]" are there for the technicals. That's their job. Pointing the finger at these guys doesn't make sense, because what you deem as the qualities of a shallow game is actually the fault of either the lead designer, or the guys who do the textures. The 3D modellers are brought in to do just that - create 3D models.

You've blatantly got rather limited knowledge on the whole process of making a video game, and you're just a boring version of KiBa who injects little to no comedic element into any post.

My views can seem like total shit to you and it won't bother me since the way you tried to refute my claims is entirely biased because you totally ignore the fact that south acts like a prima ballerina assoluta of every possible aspect of video game designing.


But you ignore the fact that you act like a prima ballerina assoluta of every possible aspect of a video game period . Look at your posts since you have returned here. The MGS topic, the Final Fantasy topic for example. When someone debates with you, you belittle them with what i can only call an attempt at trying to appear as more intellectual than that person, going as far to post quotes from philosophers which vaguely relate to some point you are trying to make, but because they are so vague, they can easily be flipped around to go against what you are saying. Try and be a bit more user friendly around here, because to be honest, your getting on like a 13 year old emo kid who has listened to way too much Radiohead.

I was watching South Park last night and this made me think of someone here.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRSYhLn4RCI

Is English your second language? He was saying these things:

- The models in Shenmue are relatively basic shapes.
- The textures used in Shenmue are what give the models life.

This is true in every video game. A wooden textures table is going to look better than just a straight-up brown table. He didn't talk about every aspect of Shenmue at all, and you don't need to be Yu Suzuki to know this shit anyway.



EDIT: And I'm not basing any of my knowledge on the post of another's. Not only is that absurd, but it also explains your inverted idea of what knowledge is.

A battle between Ryo and Chai would be epic


Considering that actually does happen on the boat, i would think its a given that it will have to be in the game :lol:

hey wude, do you have a model of ryo you can upload? I can't find any valid links anywhere :???:

The first you posted is from a beta of Shenmue chapter 1, and that is not a motorcycle, simply a bike.

The girl i used to date on and off got back with her ex, that was the cause of the on and offness in our relationship to begin with. She said numerous times it was over with him, until she kicked me to the curb 2 months ago and proceeded to get back with him. Bitch!

The thought of her lovng him and making an effort for him while i was just a meaningless rebound after nearly a year of deception is eating my soul. My mistake was falling for this girl, if only she wasn't so hot. I feel like trashing my room but unfortunately I can't release that way because I'm not a stupid moron.

Dont worry about that bitch, keep your head up and move on. She doesnt deserve you apparently. It all ultimately comes down to women doing what they do best, being bitches. brush that dirt off and move on my friend, its all there is left to do.

Like this post if you like Shenmue



Now its fucking youtube!
