Was it like pushing a button?

Yeah. That pushing the button has like a 1 in 8 billion chance of gettin' you.

Funny considering the way this place likes to view itself

Exactly. Reconsider, people who don't want to push the button. You pushing it might get this guy. Talk about a win-win.

If I can afford a revolver I have enough saved for "retirement".

I hold the button down until my hand goes numb.

Now that's THREE questions...

Do you get multiple tries if you fail a challenge, or is it just gone for good at that point?

Not all adult male cassowarys are created equal. Pick a shrimpy, sickly-looking one.

Yep. I'm guessing the show's will explain that Buck died again and was reincarnated into a similar breed of dog Buck used to be.

That could actually lead to an amusing joke if they do it right. I'm kinda expecting they don't even acknowledge it.

Uh, I guess I'll give it a chance if the chance makes itself available enough, but I was not filled with confidence.

Probably a pointless question, but isn't Buck supposed to be dead and reincarnated as a different dog if this takes place after the show?

Sure a couple seconds after winning the fight the Cassowary has ripped out your intestines.

Nope. Fight's over. He isn't allowed to attack if we're not fighting.

I'll just run up real quick and kick it. That's technically fighting it, I didn't win but I don't have to, so I immediately call an end to the fight and enjoy that sweet cash.

The Droid Attack on the Wookiees

What about that?

Get a load of dishes ready, slip it into that, ask her to help you with them--she wash, you dry, whatever--and tada.

Maybe some day, but I haven't come across the right recipe to serve them yet. And the meat's generally hard to be made available for consumption, so I want to get it perfect the first time.

...Did anyone ever buy this? Like I'm genuinely asking.

No. Just once, just ONCE, I would love to see someone actually be like 'okay I'm done with this peace out' and then...stick to their word. It's such a cliche that the expected response is "alright see you in five minutes/see you tomorrow" or whatever.

Just once.

Good luck. The only way I ever beat those games was by using the debug mode.

Does alcohol count as medication?

No.

Open to being proven wrong, though.

Tinkerbell and Periwinkle : 410 - 52

This isn't lore-accurate. Maybe they should retire the character if they can't find an actress 14 inches tall.

She displays jealousy! Ban her!

Isn't Blaze getting close to 40 in Streets of Rage 4?

Doubtful. She's only 21 in SOR1, SOR4 takes place 10 years after 3. I don't think 3 took place more than a handful of years after 2 (which itself is only a year after 1). She's probably like 35, tops.

Death By Degrees (99% sure Nina is middle aged in that game.)

She cheats with that 'I was frozen so my body's still like 25 even if I'm technically 55' kinda crap.

Its the problem when you put such powerful beings into a show that clearly does not have the funds to give them justice.

They didn't even have the budget to do a damn werewolf right. It's bananas.

No, RE4 did its own plot. The lore still exists. It still happened. Wiping Code Veronica from existence causes all that lore to never happen. Whereas (for like the fourth time), wiping RE: Nemesis causes us to lose what?

AceMos posted...

ok by that logic

"and some how wesker returned" there the only important event i veronica is summed up

hell code veronica its self does not really explain how wesker returned or why he suddenly has matrix powers

Sure if you want to dump tons of lore about Umbrella, its founders, and current leaders (y'know, the main villain of the series) in the trash, go for it.

Still waiting to know what really changes if RC doesn't get nuked. What RE: Nemesis really contributes to the lore at large.

AceMos posted...

your really trying to claim an entire city being hit with a nuke is not a major event in the lore

I'm claiming it could have just as well not happened and nothing much would've changed. So again, say it doesn't--what changes? A villain in one of the movies needs a different motivation, and oh yeah they need a slightly different reason to take out Benford.

So it's had such far-reaching implications, made such gigantic waves, that its effects might need a 5-minute rewrite.

And if your entire argument that RE3 deserves to be RE3 because of something that happens in the last 30 seconds of the game, I don't know what to tell you. Umbrella's downfall was a way bigger deal and they were happy sweeping that under the rug in the opening crawl of RE4. They could have just as easily have had Leon add "they even had to nuke the city to contain the outbreak" and not even made the game.

I don't think they would've anyway. CV and Survivor already had us going elsewheres; I think at that point players were a bit tired of Raccoon City. Maybe something like RE8 or a potential RE9 would've as a big "Whoa, back to where it all began" thing after a prolonged absence.

AceMos posted...

racoon city gets blown up in RE3 which has repercussions reaching across the entire series

Such as?

Edit: Let me posit this. RE3 happens exactly as normal, except RC isn't nuked at the end. What changes?

Isn't the only semi-notable thing about the game its Big Twist (a twist that might have seemed novel when they were first making the game, but wore out its welcome by the time the game actually released)?

AceMos posted...

no its the real RE4

No, it's the real RE3. It was literally intended to be called RE3, but Sony shenanigans wanted a 'full trilogy' of numbered RE titles on the PS1, so Nemesis got the number to go with its subtitle, whereas Code Veronica just had the subtitle.

And it advances the plot (what plot RE can really be said to have) more than Nemesis did. Nemesis said 'hey Jill escaped Raccoon City around the same time Claire and Leon did, and the city got nuked'. Code Veronica gives us a lot more information on Umbrella and its origins, brings back dumbshit Wesker, and actually picks the story up further along down the line than Nemesis' pseudo-interquel ass. All things more important than knowing a character left town, and a town we'll never go to again is gone--and for having one of its own cities nuked by its own government, the event has been basically an afterthought in the series since. One of the bad guys in one of the movies was kinda mad about it?

Its annoying having to use one of Chris 6 inventory slots to have the ability to save your game.

You don't, really. There's no reason to be toting ink ribbons along with you. Almost any time there's a typewriter there's an item box. Why would you not just leave them there? There's maybe two typewriters in the entire game that don't have an item box like 5 feet away.
SicSlayer posted...

you can literally change the control scheme to a more modern one in the REmake

I wish they hadn't have even given the option, because like with Twin Snakes' gameplay additions it basically breaks the game. It wasn't designed for it, so being able to run away from zombies and whatnot without even having to turn around first drains away what little challenge they pose to begin with. You can run circles around nearly every enemy in the game.

ssjevot posted...

Limited saves is a good mechanic if you want to build tension. Part of what makes the original game work is all the limited resources. You are always managing your resources and that includes saves. By limiting saves you get the type of consequences for dying that causes fear. Similar to what Dark Souls mantes to do without actually being a horror game. Nothing makes an enemy scarier than knowing if you die there will be consequences. If you just reload from the last checkpoint right before the enemy appeared it's not really scary.

Maybe if they change it so each ink ribbon pickup only gives you one or something. Make them more rare altogether. I was never hurting for ink ribbons in the originals, and from what I understand of most players they generally weren't, either. Unless you're saving every 15 minutes of progress you'll likely be swimming in them by the time you get to the end of the game.

If they can't rebalance it better they might as well just do it RE4 style and just make the typewriter a hard savepoint.

Don't Shokan live for thousands of years? He was around to defeat the Great Kung Lao, so he's gotta be older than 60.

Always heard about it, but never got around to watching it until like 6 months ago. Didn't really find it all that funny.

Because of the generic powers. Lol

The fuck? Saiyan powers are flying and shooting energy blasts. That's about as basic as it gets. The other cool things Goku does he learned from other people/races and have nothing to do with being a Saiyan, per se. You could be far more creative with a standard Kryptonian power-set.
