Great article, looking back at these its amazing how you are instantly able to recognize them. Without knowing it these stick with you, for better or worse.
Another excellent Podcast guys! That video was very well made and Im sure everybody listening appreciates all the effort that goes into making T-Dar each week. It would be really cool to see more of those videos in the future, but again, you guys have your hands full as is. Keep up the good work! Definately one of the best podcasts on the internet.
Great article. I find it horribly annoying when older generations try to explain or understand technology. They may not realize it, but their views are increadably ignorant and somewhat insulting. I wud have been so pissed had I been in the same situation as Geoff Knightly.
Please dont be the last T-Dar. This is possibly the most entertaining podcast out there. You guys are impossibly funny and creative. Keep up the good work and keep going!
I'm an OXM convert and I have to say, this is way more entertaining. Chris reminds me of myself. I'm a dick most of the time too. Keep up the good work.
I just figured the few PC titles weren't worth mentioning since they're already dirt cheap, and were pretty much ignored by retailers across the board.
Plus, I was trying to weigh the overall value all of the discounts:
-$30 Console game > -$5 PC game
@KillDrone That's why the contest is only asking you to reflect on the good times you had with the series.
Hell, send a screenshot of your favorite level, if you like.
@Hunter2458 It is compatible with the game of "Life" There's even a warning sticker asking you to "Please skate within your abilities on the other side
I wish I could be cooler about this, but yes, I'm pants-shittingly excited about this game! And even though David mentioned it, I'd still like to submit this as my personal 12th reason:
@John-117 That's fair. Sorry if I gave the impression that I don't find Gran Turismo to be a grand technical feat, cause I really, really do. It's just one that's been repeated 5 times, and I'm starting get a little bored with it.
Admittedly, I was intentionally prodding Turismo fans, but competition like Forza will only produce better games from both sides in in the future, right? So there's really no reason to hate on either other than shits and gigs.
Besides, didn't the fanboys read the part where I said Turismo looked better?
I suppose I should clarify that I don't give a shit about licensed cars. Cosmetically, anyway. I like to race, and I'm starting to feel that Gran Turismo has been skating by on it's legacy and licenses for a while now (see scores for PSP version.) Thus I addressed the "gameplay" - weird, huh - of which I've always felt was carried out better by Forza.
How many cars do you use anyway? 99.9% of gamers haven't driven 99.99999% of the vehicles in the game. We could argue forever about which Lotus/Ferrari/Dodge Neon handles more authentically, but sooner or later, aren't we really just taking their word for it?
Turismo is notoriously unforgiving, and while its fans wear that as a badge of honor, I find it annoying. Forza 3 let's me tackle stuff at any difficulty I want, whenever I want. And you don't need a fanboy to tell you that the online community is better because any naysayer is probably a PS3 owner and well... you've taken that thing online, right?
Remember: All of those shots were presented COMPLETELY OUT OF CONTEXT and not necessarily indicative of the entire product... so if you'd like to see the really racist Disney pics, hit me up on Twitter! /cantista
I wasn't trying to say I don't love the inclusion of the FF characters, because I do! Of course, I'd love to see some pre VI characters on the roster... but if the addition of any FF character is creating even the smallest blockade to development, I say cut 'em all loose.
Irregardless of how much more sense it would make to the universe, I'd rather hear Mr. Toad, Baloo, Robin Hood, or The Goddamn Aristocats babble on at me about the forces of light and dark than wait another half a decade for a third game.
