@zippdementia @honestgamer @holdthephone anyway, the intention was to make it a drastic difference between Midgar and everywhere else you would go
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManMar 26, 2013
@zippdementia @honestgamer @holdthephone -- any place else on the planet, and was in turn, scarring the planet, was kinda the "theme" of the city
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManMar 26, 2013
@zippdementia @honestgamer @holdthephone understandable, but the idea of Midgar was that it was the pinnacle of the worlds technology, far ahead of --
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManMar 19, 2013
@JoeTheDestroyer @zippdementia I'm thinking that will be the case with me as well, but I can't say for sure until I get there of corse.
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManMar 19, 2013
@zippdementia Just started Shadow Hearts, I'm more interested in the battle system, we'll see how everything unfolds, 2 hours in & enjoying it so far
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManMar 19, 2013
Just beat Koudelka, and shockingly, got the special ending, pain in the butt, took well over 30 minutes to finish the last fight
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManMar 12, 2013
@honestgamer my algebra teacher was less then pleasent in high school, so not really lol
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManMar 12, 2013
@honestgamer propper survival horror in RPG form, game math! [(Resident Evil + Silent Hill) x Final Fantasy(or insert another RPG)] - flaws = Koudelka
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManMar 12, 2013
@honestgamer - some controls are a little weird, but the game has an interesting story, which coupled with the gameplay, captures the feel of -
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManMar 12, 2013
@honestgamer well it's by no means perfect lol there are a few issues, like having to gues what enemies are weak to in order to maximize damage, and -
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManMar 11, 2013
Started Koudelka, on disc 2 after 2 hours, seems to be short, besides a few annoyances, it's quite fun, Resident Evil & Silent Hill meet Final Fantasy
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManMar 10, 2013
@pickhut kinda regret waiting so long to use it, but the armor breaker is a close second
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManMar 10, 2013
@pickhut you'll want to buy the Armor Breaker and upgrade it once you can, it'll make it more bearable, I didn't use the FOX Blade until the last boss
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManMar 10, 2013
@pickhut try playing on revengeance difficulty, that was god aweful, almost every hit from any enemy kills you, even with every health upgrade
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManFeb 20, 2013
SuckerPunch just announced Infamous Second Son!
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManFeb 20, 2013
PS4 announced, 8GB of high speed graphics RAM, 3D depth seeking camera, and dual shock 4 motioning tracking... hopefully I'll be able to afford it
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManFeb 19, 2013
@honestgamer @pickhut -- the stories(for the most part), with the focus being on the multiplayer the stories have become shorter less enjoyable for me
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManFeb 19, 2013
@honestgamer @pickhut Well I haven't really liked CoD since Modern Warfare 2, mostly from 5-year old trash talk online, I enjoy the gameplay and --
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManFeb 18, 2013
@overdrive I've heard good things & have been interested for a while, just didn't want to spend 40-50 on a snes game I wasn't 100% sure about you know
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManFeb 18, 2013
@honestgamer Yeah! I saw a snes game behind the counter and asked what it was, when she said the title I was kind of in shock, more so with the price.
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManFeb 18, 2013
Got super lucky at a local game shop, someone had just traded a copy of Soul Blazer and left, the shop only had it listed for $18, so I bought it!
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManFeb 17, 2013
@honestgamer mostly lol I managed to win an auction for it ^^ at the lower end of what I've seen them sell at recently, Jaci basically paid for half+
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManFeb 17, 2013
-- but now, I have a copy coming in the mail, thanks largely in part to my Valentines gift from my girlfriend ^^ I will need to hook up the Wii/WiiU
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManFeb 17, 2013
I visited GameStop fairly often last year, and every time I said "it'll be there" when looking at Xenoblade Chronicles, I have much regret for that --
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManFeb 10, 2013
just checked out the trailer of the next monolith game on WiiU, totally a Xeno game, it looks like the mecha is out of Xenogears! NOT gonna miss this!
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManJan 28, 2013
What do you want to see released on WiiU? for me, a new Fatal Frame, the motion/touch controller would be a great way to put the camera in your hands!
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManJan 23, 2013
@honestgamer Fire Emblem X Shin Megami is certainly going to be interesting, and Wind Waker HD could seriously shine on the WiiU.
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManJan 21, 2013
@honestgamer Jaci & I are getting Ni No Kuni as well, was looking at the LE, Namco is out, people are selling their LE preorders on ebay at $160+ >.<
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManJan 17, 2013
@PSY A: GameRankings only takes staff reviews, why bash users? B: 2 reviews on Zero Tolerance, 5/10 & 2/10, without the 2/10, 5/10 still = BAD OVERALL
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManJan 17, 2013
@honestgamer @Genj @Suskie I love Devil May Cry, 3 was hands down amazing! I wasn't big on Heavenly Sword or Enslaved, so I'm still a bit sceptical.
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManJan 16, 2013
@honestgamer that's exactly the plan, we have about 10 "episodes" recorded, 4 edited, we are going to ready 16 then post one a week, like seasons
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManJan 16, 2013
@honestgamer you made a good point about my videos the other night, so future videos, excluding what is done, will be seperated, your input is valued
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManJan 12, 2013
@honestgamer sounds right lol & the prequel to Shadow Hearts is called Koudelka, & the word "tactical" is used loosely, plays similar to Persona 1 & 2
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManJan 12, 2013
@honestgamer fair enough, they had been there for about 2 weeks too, what other game were you after?
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManJan 12, 2013
@honestgamer I went down to P3, and Steve said I had just missed you, I was gonna tell him to hold those for you, but you got there before I did lol
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManJan 08, 2013
@honestgamer @JoeTheDestroyer I agree with Jason, the NGage was way before it's time, now most phones run games, so it has potential to succeed
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManDec 31, 2012
@TomatoMan @JoeTheDestroyer the Breath of Fire 2 and the other NES games though, 3 of the games I've not seen, 2 of which I've not heard of, thanks!
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManDec 31, 2012
@JoeTheDestroyer Secret of Mana, Link to the Past, & Castlevania 3 I have CIB, I also have Mario RPG, and X3 was my fav MMX, I'll look at ...
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManDec 31, 2012
Thanks everyone with your game suggestions for the SNES! I'm looking into acquiring a good few of the suggested games!
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManDec 31, 2012
@zigfried @zippdementia Just watched about 10 minutes to get a feel for it, and I think I'm gonna get myself a copy, and it's actually affordable!
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManDec 30, 2012
@zippdementia thanks for the recommendations though, I'll be looking into demon's crest and out of this world, seeing what those are like
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManDec 30, 2012
@zippdementia obscure, I have Chrono & Shadowrun, it's a good list & I've been there, I was looking for social recommendations, not just a lists.
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManDec 30, 2012
@honestgamer my bad, I've got zome Zelda and MegaMan Legends onces, but I'll leave them be for a while
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManDec 30, 2012
@honestgamer Ah, ok, the early action adventure elements, so just coincidence that both your recommendations were by the same developer then?
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManDec 30, 2012
@honestgamer Illusion of Gaia is on my list, I wish Terranigma made it over too, and I assume you enjoy Quintet? Since you suggested ActRaiser as well
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManDec 30, 2012
Anyone have game recommendations for the NES or SNES? I reccommend looking into Clash at Demonhead for NES and Skyblazer for SNES.
Brandon Thissell @TomatoManDec 30, 2012
Not 100% sure how I feel about the complete lack of a blog, but the twitter style chat system works great for quick updates, just not story telling.
