    Sell the ****ty PAL games and then start buy decent NTSC games. NTSC, the way it's meant to be played.

    The translation patch for Ys Origins is out. http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=446677

    Linking to the neogaf thread because it has useful info on getting it running.

    I'm going to give it a go with the version that was given away a few months ago.

    Anyone ever hear of this LCD handheld? It's called 'Laden VS USA'. You have to fly planes into the twin towers -

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laden_vs_USA

    It's on ebay but it's unfortunately super expensive.

    What in the fcuk is that all about! :confused:
    Had to check the date to make sure it wasn't April's Fools. "The game can also play inspiring music..." eh, ok. Some folk would say it should be called USA VS USA to be more accurate. :rolleyes:

    Four Swords is out for free on the 3DS and DSi today by the way...

    I've been refusing to read any information about Dark Souls as I don't own a PS3. Hearing all the hype over Demon's Souls and not being able to play it was awful.

    What I also missed what the pretty monumental fact that it's coming to the 360. Not only that, but it's out next week.

    I am both super excited and freaked out. Freaked out due to the sheer amount of (as someone over in the Games forum put it) 'wallet rape' I'm going to experience with new games over the next while! Why do they always come out at once?!


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Arts Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 29,094 CMod ✭✭✭✭johnny_ultimate


    It's not just the money, it's the sheer amount of time required that intimidates most.

    Dark Souls, by most early previews, is 100+ hours long.

    :eek:

    At least it's value for money I guess!

    I checked the time stats on my 3DS recently and I've played a whopping 4 and a half hours of Starfox 3D.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Arts Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 29,094 CMod ✭✭✭✭johnny_ultimate


    I'm never sure if I like time tracking or not. On one hand, the Steam and Wii updates are interesting. On the other, I remember being shocked to discover I'd played 100+ hours of Oblivion. Problem was I didn't really like it that much :o


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 50,812 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    I always take recommended levels and times to beat games with a pinch of salt. Remember the 150+ hour FFVII? Beaten in 40 hours. I'm usually able to beat games in half the time reviewers say it will take. Fallout 3 200 hours? Beaten in 120 with all the DLC and doing every sidequest and a lot of exploring. I'd say DS is a 50 hour game at most.

    You're just a show off :P

    Currently racked up 190 hours on Pokémon Black. How? I do not know...
