Return Armored Core 4 to the store unopened, now.

Giant complex robots you can customize, except if you make a mistake you cannot go back a menu.

You are penalized if your mission takes longer than roughly 3 minutes.

Missions that require you to manuever in the air, only air controls are totally shit.

Get Armored Core for Answer instead. It's pretty much the opposite of 4 in every single way.

Need XBLA advice. Got 800 points to blow (don't want to buy any more right now, spent too much already) and I want something I can hop onto LIVE with. Prefer something actiony because there's no decent strategy games really. Was considering "Commanders: Attack!" but it looks like an oversimplified Advance Wars. If all else fails I'm probably getting Catan.

Any recommendations?

Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, maybe? (assuming that it is 800 points). Lumines is all sorts of fun.

Or, hey, just download a few episodes of Gurren Lagann or something.

Have you gotten Doom yet?

Kayma · « **Reply #67 on:** January 25, 2009, 02:49:07 PM »

You should get Uno.

...what? I love Uno.

Kazz · « **Reply #68 on:** January 25, 2009, 03:06:22 PM »

SotN is tempting, haven't played it. re Gurren Lagann, I'm not downloading anything I can Obtain Legitimately on the internet. Lumines isn't all sorts of fun, it's one sort of fun over and over. Not interested. Doom is stupid and UNO is a game that you have to convince yourself is fun.

i think you're an awesome guy, noro, and i'd love to take your opinion seriously, but I saw the true face of madness back in the Spelunky thread.

Norondor · « **Reply #72 on:** January 25, 2009, 03:55:15 PM »

well in the interest of full disclosure that controller had already had a cabinet dropped on it so it's not like the seam was in great health and popping it back in place wasn't a big chore

i like to overstate things because it makes me feel better about my inability to slap derek yu on the back of the head for making his game so frustrating

but really SOTN is pretty much the best thing IGA ever made and it's fun to play through it, then any castlevania since SOTN's release and watch the process of him trying to bottle lightning a second time

Kazz · « **Reply #73 on:** January 25, 2009, 04:01:55 PM »

i'm picturing you, glowering at your controller, hefting a cabinet overhead and smashing it down on your gamepad

Disposable Ninja · « **Reply #74 on:** January 25, 2009, 04:18:57 PM »

I liked Aria of Sorrow better.

But yeah, totally play Symphony.

this lie only works on people who have never played a game in which you were heard over ventrilo.

I think Castlevania:SotN is a pretty cool guy. eh was the only truely great example of 2d platformers ever evolving into anything good for a long time and doesn't afraid of anything.

Also, the 2.5d graphic effects in places like the castle's chapel were really cool at the time although they have since been outdone (even earlier games in the arcade had cooler effects, like Gunlock).

But SotN is also the only castlevania with an open map where I really liked every area in the castle because they were all something cool that seemed like it should be a part of Drac's Castle.

My only problem with it as a game, is the fact that Orlock was never used as a reoccuring mid boss for other chapters in the series like Death always is. At least Granfalloon found extended life in the form of the Legion. I wish he had kept his old name though, as the definition of it is awesome.

Pac-man Championship Edition is great as is Bionic Commando.

and remember, EVERY ARCADE GAME HAS A DEMO.

Kazz · « **Reply #78 on:** January 25, 2009, 07:03:11 PM »

yeah i'm getting lots of trials.

Defenestration · « **Reply #79 on:** January 25, 2009, 07:09:37 PM »

I'm going to second everyone else playing SotN. It is overhyped... but only slightly. It's pretty much the best Castlevania that ever was. Aria was pretty good too though.
