wakka posted a message in the forum topic Mostly modern games if published are at least 6-7/10. And we too jaded by 10s or hoping for games like that to gauge it right?. on the General Discussion board Jul 5, 4:58pm

I can't say that I'm looking for a game to be "mindblowingly good" per se, and I think "unique" would be overstating it. There are definitely popular formulas to follow if a studio wants to succeed; b...

wakka posted a message in the forum topic favorite game. on the General Discussion board May 19, 1:09pm

FFX, for either question, which I have played through about a dozen times. It's strange that "coherent" could be a superlative when it comes to a franchise's stories, but that was my impression of wha...

wakka posted a message in the forum topic What games are you looking forward to in 2023?. on the General Discussion board May 18, 8:18pm

Looking forward to Telltale's The Expanse. Played New Tales from the Borderlands last year, but it scratched an itch more because it ended a wide delta between releases of these kinds of point-and-cli...

wakka posted a message in the forum topic Of the games you played, what's the lowest score (critic wise) on metacritic, for a game you love?. on the General Discussion board May 11, 5:11pm

I can't say that I have any games that I love that are rated abysmally low by Metacritic, but I thought that Telltale's third season of The Walking Dead, A New Frontier, was actually the best of the ...

wakka posted a message in the forum topic G4TV hit with layoffs. on the General Discussion board Sep 18, 4:18pm

I was a big fan of X-Play with Sessler and Webb back in the day, as well as the Pereira/Munn Attack of the Show. My most vivid memory of AotS, for whatever reason, is Kevin covering Occupy Wall Stree...

wakka posted a message in the forum topic old shows coming back in the future?. on the General Discussion board Sep 17, 2:23pm

Dan is back, and he was the bloke most excited about playing Shenmue; so, I would like to see this madman pick (abduct?) two staff members and finish the saga. 😂

wakka posted a message in the forum topic Do you still pay full price for games?. on the General Discussion board Sep 17, 2:07pm

Almost never. I think the last time I did was the FFVII remake for PS4, which is about as ridiculously anticipated as a release gets. Regardless of what the new "starting point" for titles is, my mag...

wakka posted a message in the forum topic What's this like now?. on the Cyberpunk 2077 board Sep 13, 3:20am

Started my playthrough a few weeks ago on PS5, finished it. I clocked about 100 hours, going through all the gigs, side quests, etc.; I encountered one or two crashes that were totally inconsequential...

wakka posted a message in the forum topic What's the worst game you've played due to Vinnyitus (series completionism)? Ever stopped a series because of it?. on the General Discussion board Jul 30, 8:51pm

Kingdom Hearts 3 ... a bit of a sunk cost effect and wanted to "see it through"; of course, these games might as well have been written by Vince Russo, and I cannot recall how many 'false finishes' I ...

wakka posted a message in the forum topic Do you care about Halloween?. on the Off-Topic board Jul 16, 7:01pm

Not really. In the neighborhood I live in, it seems like more than half of the doorsteps are empty when kids go trick-or-treating (I am talking pre-lockdown). When I was a kid, to the best of my recol...

wakka posted a message in the forum topic What movies can you watch all the time and never get tired of watching?. on the Off-Topic board Jul 13, 5:23pm

Die Hard 1-4, Simon Pegg/Nick Frost trilogy, and two more lowkey entries: First Snow starring Guy Pearce and Find Me Guilty starring Vin Diesel.

wakka posted a message in the forum topic Twitter Agrees To Sell Itself To Elon Musk For Roughly $44 Billion. on the Off-Topic board Apr 25, 6:33pm

Well, free speech is more of an issue than some would like to admit. Chris Hedges, long ago, was booted from NYT for opposing the wars in the Middle East; he was then pushed to the margins to Truthdi...

wakka posted a message in the forum topic Console players, what was your first purchased DLC?. on the General Discussion board Apr 25, 3:43pm

It's hard to remember, but I'm going to say it was one of the DLCs for Sleeping Dogs (idk which of the three expansions). I enjoyed that game to the point that any reason to spend more time with it w...

wakka posted a message in the forum topic What would it take to get you back into the game you swore you'd never play again?. on the General Discussion board Apr 21, 9:10pm

I have been waiting for Square to reboot Kingdom Hearts with a new original cast of characters since everything they've been putting out post-KH2. At this point, I have found it convenient to believe...

wakka posted a message on the post Marino's Top 100 Games of All Time. Apr 18, 10:24pm

Nice to see NFL 2K5 represented, and so high (recently revisited for a season playthrough ... holds up!). I got mad enough at EA that I did not buy another Madden game until a few years ago. I still f...

ALEX AND VINNY, PLAY THE REST OF THE DANG GAME!

Another vote for Alien Hominid. The first game that comes to mind!
