The slightly slippery tip wouldn't slip into the hole.

Not really a picture, but awesome.

https://www.google.com/search?q=atari+breakout&safe=off&sa=X&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&ei=BVWRUeLJJMHJ4AT_vYCAAQ&ved=0CEYQsAQ&biw=1600&bih=799

Or just do a Google Image Search for "atari breakout" (no quotes necessary).

Yeah I love Google for that, they do a bunch of "little secrets" like that.
"Do a Barrel Roll" is one of the older ones that works too.
Type "zerg rush" or "tilt" too.
If you type "recursion" (I think?) you get one of those "Did you mean ____"  and they put "recursion" again.

EDIT: Thanks wikipedia!

Not all work still I think.

Aaaah.  Only the Leafs could mess up a 4-1 lead and end up losin'.
SEE YA NEXT YEAR GUYS.

^ fair enough.  But that doesn't save all the neurons that stopped activating after playing FF13-2.
The battle system is fun, I'll give it that, but it's almost transparently obvious that Squeenix has no idea where the fuck they're going with it and an obvious recycling of content probably with the loss of a lot of resources poured into it.
FF13 Series plot this far:
Renegades on a distant moon --> Time-travel anime hour with Serah Chan and Noel Kun --> Majora's Mask.


I can't see FFType-0 getting PSN treatment, not only by this point but probably a fear of piracy which has in no way been over-exaggerated.
But I'll stake a million bucks that the first wiff we get of an HD/International version, we'll see *that* come Westward.

^ Kudos to the FF9 demake for changing the gamestyle; but generally yeah...since GBC games can't handle much, their games are best left to simple designs.  A GBA or DS sort of demake would be a bit more interesting and certainly let them be more flexible.

Whatever, can they please focus the remaining staff that isn't the 5 [max] you need for iPhone games and maybe the 10-20 you need for social games to work on Versus and the final-fucking-Kingdom Hearts game?? 

I guess this means more years without remakes of the "better" FF games (honestly think a remake of a good title might be better than the flaming garbage that FF13 turned into).

Started replaying Wild Arms 2. Good times.

I'm sure if I played that game on Acid I'd end up on the ceiling for a few parts.

Chris Hadfield and his extreme space voyage covering David Bowie....in the most literal way possible.

First music video made furthest from Earth and using real weightlessness??

Less rumors, more Tales of Xillia.

Well IIRC that link also assured Xill2 was on its way.  So yaay (we gotta deal with crappier Xill1 then 2).

Starting Graces f again. Decided it would be weird to get a new Tales game without finishing the previous one. So I just spent the last hour or so printing out a side quest guide and ctrl+f searching a walkthrough for the chronological order of completing said side quests. That's one of my pet peeves of the Tales series, how easy it is to miss important stuff for even a basic completionist like myself (i.e. I don't mind missing some skits, but would like to do all the subevebts.)

Graces f just adds insult to injury by finally adding a way to keep track of side quests, but lists them in no logical order.

I just missed a "beat in one minute trophiy". &@^#(*@^#*&.

And Mesh addresses a concern I've had with CT for a long, long time....

I must suck, but I hate the whole de-make idea.

I think Nintendo owns the rights to ToS' English localization. I could be wrong, but I'm almost positive that's why we didn't get the PS2 version to begin with. I want to believe, but I wouldn't hold my breath on this coming stateside.

Also, when are they going to add online play to the Tales series? All my Tales buddies live in different states.

IIRC, like many "Tales rumors", the bit about the Nintendo localization isn't 100% true and it was outsourced to a third party with Nintendo still as main distributor....orsomethinglikethat, I dunno (it was Hometek doing the work, or something).

I don't think Baba would have told some Spanish press about it unless there was a good chance of it coming Stateside, and like I said before, it is the most popular Tales title worldwide.  It would also tie in with the continuously reported "Tales-filled year" as well as the fact Vesperia PS3 was turned down, Tales PSN titles doesn't sound "like them" to announce, and Xill2 is...kind of a no-brainer.  Word of a new Tales title has been floating around the last few weeks too.

I know it's still rumor (oh my me, look at me gab on <3)...but I don't know... it seems to "fit" don't it?

http://www.koi-nya.net/2013/05/12/hideo-baba-deja-caer-una-posible-remasterizacion-para-ps3-de-ambos-tales-of-symphonia-tales-of-symphonia-perfect-edition/

The article makes it sounds quite a "matter-a-fact", but Symphonia HD may be a thing now, and certainly makes the promise of a "Tales-filled year" sound more promising.

The timing is right (10 years, IIRC), OVA is done, and it's the most popular title worldwide.

....hopefully it's not just an "HD Edition" but an Enhanced Edition....the game is a classic, but certainly dated.

definitely time to change.  I've had that feeling before; I'm pretty sure I'm one of the only ones in my group of friends from highschool still in post-secondary.  Just do your best really.
44  The Rest / General Discussions / Re: Alright peeps, lets try: Top 10 Favorite Games on: May 12, 2013, 11:20:43 AM
How many of us actually listed them in order of least or most favourite? I know I didn't.

Don't think I could possibly even try to.

Dragon Quarter was awesome.  I do think it's important to let go of the other titles in the series as basis for comparison; but I thought Capcom made a risk and I think it paid off.

But it's definitely one of those titles that if you loved it, you reallllyy loved it; and if you hated it, ....well....
45  The Rest / General Discussions / Re: Random and Amazing Pictures, Please! on: May 11, 2013, 12:18:13 PM
It's actually a little tempting to pass that on...

And I like the sloth bit too. :)

Oh god don't.  Last think you need is an overzealous parent to see it and believing it might be real, forbidding some poor kid to never go online again. xP
