Terminus Posted April 25, 2014 Author Share Posted April 25, 2014 Yeah, so I just got a new laptop. It can run Skyrim at decent settings, it can run Portal at max specs perfectly, and I've rigged it to work with my PS4 controller and hook up to my HDTV, so I might get into some PC gaming.But can it run Crysis? I just got a gaming PC myself. I've modded the karz out of Skyrim and am now looking into getting Spore. I'm not going to try, I'll just feel like a failure. But I've been playing a decent bit of Asphalt 8 recently (free decent windows 8 racing game), love the fact that I can play games on my TV with my PS4 controller.And I'm loving that I can now do the final Testchamber of Portal without hitting some SERIOUS lag at the end...

Hodor Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 The PS4 controller is so great. Wish it was just a tad bit heavier, but it's really a big improvement over the PS3's, especially with the L2/R2 triggers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just A Dot Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 I hate PS2/PS3 controllers. They are just uncomfortable to me. I don't like the placement of the sticks and the grips and everything about them. The only thing I like is how they aren't just ABXY, so I don't have to think about hitting buttons, which I guess I'd take over hitting X in place of Y and B in place of A (curse you Microsoft!)

I'm no expert on game controllers having basically only ever owned Nintendo systems, but I would think ABXY would be a great deal easier to memorize than a series of shapes. And I think Microsoft may have the right idea with brightly-colored buttons—if you do have to glance down to see which button is where, I feel colors would make the recognition more instantaneous. Nintendo did something similar with the Gamecube, with some buttons being different colors and all buttons being different shapes. I never really appreciated it at the time (I felt like the Gamecube layout was weird, and the weirdly shaped and colored buttons didn't help), but over time I've grown to see the advantage—you don't have to look down at all to tell which button is which, since onscreen tutorials and prompts can show the shape of the button and you can feel which one it is. Sometimes I wonder why no company has done this since (not even Nintendo themselves).

The problem I have with Xbox controllers is when I'm told to hit "A", I instinctively hit the button on the right. I'm not going to take the time to glance down. I'm sure that "X" would give me trouble on Sony if I hadn't grown up on Playstation, but the rest of the buttons are different, so I found it easy to adjust.

Terminus Posted April 28, 2014 Author Share Posted April 28, 2014 What I'd really love to see in a (modern) controller is octagonal restrictors for the analog sticks. Those are FANTASTIC if you want to use an analog stick in a fighting game. Although they aren't really as useful with anything else... Anyways, I just got MadWorld (which will probably be one of the last Wii games I'll ever buy- I'm planning on getting Pandora's Tower and MAYBE Skyward Sword soon, and that's pretty much it), it's good so far, although the clunky camera, slow combat, and all black-and-white (with some red) color scheme all get kinda... Annoying. Still, it was highly recommended by the person at the cash register and I've loved every Platinum game I've played, so I'll probably see this one through.

You mean like the GCN controller had? Those were such awesome controllers. I've heard good things about Pandora's Tower, but I can't say I'd recommend Skyward Sword. I'm sure you've heard plenty of flak about the controls, and they were honestly one of the better parts of the game IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminus Posted April 29, 2014 Author Share Posted April 29, 2014 If you combined the GCN controller's design, Dualshock 4's buttons, and Xbox's analog sticks, you'd simply have the most amazing controller in the world. I kinda feel guilty about not having Pandora's Tower yet, as I was in the Operation Rainfall campaign a while back sending letters to Nintendo that basically amounted to "BRING OVER XENOBLADE, THE LAST STORY, AND PANDORA'S TOWER AND I WILL GIVE YOU MY MONEY!!!1!", except they were more polite and had good grammar. Well, I guess since XSeed released it, I don't feel too bad... And the maybe on SS was a huge maybe. I've yet to actually finish a Zelda game (been working on OoT for what, 7 years now?), and TP's motion controls bug me to no end, so I'm pretty sure if I ever get it, it'll be because I've beaten every other Zelda game and want to finish them all... And that won't happen anytime soon. Now that I think about it... I'd really like Mistwalker to make a Zelda game. The Last Story was a great almost-Zelda game, and Nintendo seems more willing to team up with outside devs on their big games now then they were a while back...

I got Xenoblade a few months ago, but haven't opened it yet. I'm not sure I want Mistwalker to do Zelda. I've yet to play The Last Story, but I believe it's more of an RPG, and while Zelda II was great, I'm not sure I want more RPG elements in Zelda. Maybe a level up system, but I hate grinding in games, and every RPG I've ever played has forced me to grind at one point or another.

If they took out the level system in TLS, it would basically be just like Zelda, albeit a bit more strategy-focused and with less puzzles. Also, compared to other RPGs, TLS requires little grinding (levels don't matter nearly as much as weapons), and it's quite easy to overlevel yourself just by grinding for a short while. Anyways, the big thing that makes the two feel similar is the setting, I could easily see TLS taking part in another part of the Zelda world (and it has voice acting.

Baby Rosalina? You take my least favorite concept for Mario Kart characters (babies), and mix it with someone who was the coolest character ever in her debut and has been tacked on meaninglessly in every other game since then besides Smash Bros., and what do you get? An even worse character decision than the Queen Bee and Metal Mario in Mario Kart 7 (who apparently were more important to add than Waluigi?) Adding all of the Koopalings was pretty bad, especially since Bowser Jr. isn't making the cut, and I can't even use BZPower appropriate words to describe how awestruck I am that Pink Gold Peach is actually a thing that, not only did they consider in more than just passing thought, but actually approved, modeled, playtested, and are including in the final package.

Lyichir Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 I'm kind of upset. I've been getting back into Fire Emblem Awakening lately, and had intended to pass down Lancebreaker to Yarne. But when I went into his mission I found that he received a lame skill from Kellam and nothing from Panne. Apparently, I must have gone into that mission and quit long before I had any decent skills on either of his parents, which I didn't know was a problem. And worse, I don't know how many of the other kids I've done that with, meaning a lot of my tireless training and reclassing might have been for nothing.It's really a letdown, and I might end up quitting the game again because of it. I just don't have the energy to start over but continuing this current file feels like it could be a waste.

Terminus Posted May 2, 2014 Author Share Posted May 2, 2014 I prefer Gen. II for Pokemon, although that's just because those were the ones I really liked before I stopped playing, and I didn't really like any of the games released after D/P. Also, I used to play some MMOs with some of my IRL friends, although I've been out of touch with that for a while. It was fun, though. I sometimes still play DS/3DS games with my friends online, although none of my friends have a PS3, so I can't do console multiplayer games with them, which kinda sucks. And Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare was revealed earlier, and... I'm actually kinda excited for it. I'm thinking it was the Kevin Spacey narration that sold me.
