    Were you never even in it? :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,328 ✭✭✭Pyongyang


    I don't think so looking at this now. Could have chosen Dick Tracy weeks ago now...maybe...sort of...ish. :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,695 ✭✭✭DinoRex


    You were in all the ones I ran anyway.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,328 ✭✭✭Pyongyang


    I find your statement comforting and interseting. Thnaks. Here, have a BANDI Wonteswan. :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,750 ✭✭✭ghostchant


    There's a longer list (that includes me!) than the one posted yesterday


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,533 ✭✭✭✭OwaynOTT


    I'm in the list as well right?
    If not we'll never get to talk about Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,328 ✭✭✭Pyongyang


    No game was posted! Pick another! Pick another!

    Dick Tracy! Dick Tracy! :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,695 ✭✭✭DinoRex


    Actually looks like you weren't on the list...

    here's how it currently stands:

    batari, Retr0gamer, DinoRex, sera, ghostchant, o1s1n, Paperwork, gymman39, luasdublin, vangoz, owaynott, KeithGeo, Mr.Saturn, Pyongyang, OwaynOTT

    Just ran it again and look what popped up:

    Hmm! I'm going to have a think about this! Who to choose? Silver Burst Hawk? Bond? Vic Viper? Or a yellow blob with non-existent collision detection?

    I'll have a think through today and post later.

    Decisions decisions!


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,528 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    Oh feck it!
    Stick me back on the list, I had thought I wouldn't be able to choose a game up to the standards around here... But then I saw Arkanoid and figured I was selling myself short!

    I ran the randomiser with this list:

    batari, Retr0gamer, DinoRex, sera, ghostchant, o1s1n, Paperwork, gymman39, luasdublin, vangoz, owaynott, KeithGeo, Mr.Saturn, ciderman, OwaynOTT, brianon

    And up came:

    Mr. Saturn


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,528 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    Hmm, I wonder what console format he'll be picking a game for...
    Playstation?
    CD32?
    .
    ..
    ...
    Atari Jaguar???

    You've just shown your ignorance at being one of those people that have yet to experience earthbound.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,528 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    Now now Retr0, lets face facts.
    You knew I was ignorant about videogames long before you knew I hadn't played Earthbound!

    And, yet, despite this obvious disconnect in my gaming prowess and knowledge, I'm still a mod here!?!
    I suppose the recruitment policy hereabouts is a copy of the one Game use for their staff! ;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,911 ✭✭✭Mr.Saturn


    Yes.

    MrSaturn1.jpg

    No.

    Anyways, it'd be pointless picking an RPG, as it's only a week and you've all got lives and things. I'll probably pick something arcade-y, maybe with some sort of prize for highest score. Keep on the edge of your seats there, lads.

    Pick whatever you want, it's not a prerequisite to play the game, it's more for discussion of it.
