| I'd say we were in the same place we were back then with cartoons, there's a lot of cheap terrible shows that get quickly forgotten or were just there to sell a product, then you have your Ren and Stimpy's and your Invader Zim's, but they go on Adult Swim now where they have no restrictions and can ... |

| Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning - One of the most underrated RPGs in the past few years. The art style, music, combat, lore and exploration are all great. I haven't finished the game yet myself (last time I played it was over 2 years ago, got about 70% through the game), but it was worth every penny ... |

| I loved Nuts and Bolts, very underrated game, it was a real mistake to put Banjo and Kazooie in it and wish that it had a bit more freedom in the editor, but it's one of the best games I've played in recent years. If they just reused the engine to make an online battlefield game or an rpg that wasn'... |

| It just was slower and didn't "have as much going on" as some of the black metal I've heard, so it didn't seem as complex. Guess I don't know how to explain it. It just seems easier to play slower music, as you don't have to play well and fast at the same time, not that it doesn't take talent to pl... |

| Hey, my first post to this part of the forum, I haven't really talked to anyone about my music for about a year, as I stopped making it two years ago after some depression and dropping out of university. But anyway, if anybody is interested in the following ambiguous words often used to classify mus... |

| I've had the most success with Captain Falcon and Duck Hunt Duo, at least in the 3ds version. I played Captain Falcon a lot in 64 and Melee, but not in Brawl, he felt kinda flimsy to me in Brawl. I'd like to see Snake back (in a less overpowered form, though I guess Duck Hunt Duo is similar) and fee... |

I want to get into Starcraft 2, but watching the tournaments makes me feel like I'm a little too la... |

| Yes, it's famously bad for this and because of it, I haven't played in a while. The online community was trash, but I'm guessing it might have improved recently since they've added custom games and a server browser. You know, it means you can avoid dicks and only join games before they've started, w... |

Other than that, that moment in Timesplitters 3 when you see your first changeling (jo barf creepy)(but only in singleplayer) freaked me out t... |

| Yeah, I don't get along with Mobas either, but I think the genre has a lot of potential. Have you tried Awesomenauts? That's more like the kind of Moba I'd like to see, with some action right away as opposed to dancing behind your units and shooting them in the back for 20 minutes. I really like the... |

I tried playing through Fez a few weeks ago, was getting along with it and having fun, but then suddenly there's a puzzle with a QR code in it? What the f**k am I going to do with that? Am I just unable to comp... |
