The Eyetoy. It cost $100, and seeing I was about 11 at the time, $100 seemed quite literally a truckload of money. But I raked all my birthday money, job money, and pocket money together, and I bought that little camera and the "Eyetoy Play" game that came with it. And it was totally worth that truckload of money.
For 5 minutes :( I quickly realised the thing I hold sold my soul for wasn't all that great at being fun for even a small length of time, even at the age of 11. And I still have problems trusting 1st party periphals to this very day.
@ Killerwhalen - Well, I didn't think it was based on The Last Airbender, but then I saw an ad for something called Avatar, and it had this minute segment of this bald kid in a brown hood doing all these kung fu-like moves, while extuingishing all these lit candles around him with air.
I'm not going to lie, I feel pretty friggin' confused right now. Forgive me for my insolence :( Haha.
@ Giraffes - I consider them close to the same thing when they have the same name. At least, to begin with.
I really got alot out of those tutorials and Alice and Kev.
Even if you hate Sims 3, you should really take a look at the Alice and Kev link, it's a well-told story. The fact that it's told with screenshots from Sims 3 just adds to the amazingness.
WTF? how is it racist? i hate people who point and scream 'RACISM' at every little thing that might, no matter how small the chance, possibly warrant it.
haha, i second that love.
anyway, jeez, this looks amazing...wasnt sure about it, seeing its a shoot em up, but this DEFINATELY looks worth playing.
and who honestly gives a crap about grey colours? that sure as heck isnt what i think about when i watch that video. bet it isnt what ill be thinking about when i play the game either.
