I picked this up for free a few years ago and was pleasantly surprised, a lovely unique little platform/puzzle
- Comment on Being a noob in heist games 1 week ago:
I loved that game. It’s been a while since I played but I remember the only way I could reliably do the max-difficulty missions quickly was by using the brick spaceship to smash directly into the room where the target was or something insane like that!

“Dodo cheat”, at least according to the little cheat book I had back in the day. It gave cars the same mechanics as the dodo (which I think was the little sea plane). Using the tank like a rocket and aiming for a ramp was the best.

I’m not really that fussed about story, it’s a nice bonus but the gameplay is what keeps me hooked. Sounds like Inscryption is the one to play first; Slay the Spire sounds more like the Binding of Isaac, something I’ve probably put a thousand hours into already!

Keep at it, the mirror unlocks really help (plus you just get better at dodging etc)

I’ve got both of these games, which one should I play first? I’m fully expecting to put hundreds of hours into each so I guess I want the smaller/simpler one first, but if you’ve played both and can make a (spoiler free) recommendation then please do!

I found a online emulator and it’s not bad! Not an instant classic like pacman and definitely difficult to control two characters at once, but a fun little arcade game.

Seems so!

What you were taught
“Mobile phones will never replace desktop computers”
What we know now
Mobile devices became the primary computing platform for billions of people worldwide.
That isn’t a response to the initial statement at all, which is very much an opinion or prediction rather than any claim to be a fact. I’m suddenly feeling pretty sceptical about this website.

You’re welcome, it’s a really good way to inject some new difficulty into a game you already know inside out. Careful about going full rando though, having your weedle evolve into a mewtwo with a 40PP hyper beam might break things a little!

Might I recommend Universal Pokémon Randomizer for your next play through?

When I last played them Dolphin really struggled, but fortunately you can buy a Wii and the discs for a few quid each!
- Comment on Britain’s illegal e-bike boom: desperation, delivery drivers – and unthinkable danger 5 weeks ago:
The issue is, says Ford, that these illegal e-bikes are in effect motorbikes. “These people have passed no test, have no road training and don’t have the road skills. They just get on and ride around without insurance, tax, the bike not conforming to lights and everything else it should conform to, it’s not registered with the DVLA, all these things.”
Obviously “unthinkable” is one person’s opinion, but you get their point
- Comment on What games have mastered "Both emotional extremes"? 5 weeks ago:
I’m not really a “plot” sort of gamer so probably don’t have a huge amount of experience to choose from, but Undertale really sounds like it fits the bill. It’s all laughs and jokes until it’s not.

I’m going to assume that this was a totally useless gimmick like most of the junk like this I saw advertised back in the day, but I’d love to hear if anyone ever used one

In a vegetative state would be more accurate:
The vegetative state is a chronic or long-term condition. This condition differs from a coma: a coma is a state that lacks both awareness and wakefulness. Patients in a vegetative state may have awoken from a coma, but still have not regained awareness. In the vegetative state patients can open their eyelids occasionally and demonstrate sleep-wake cycles, but completely lack cognitive function.

The escape velocity of the moon is 2.38km/s (compared to 11.2km/s on Earth) so you’d have to be throwing it pretty hard

Isn’t that from Buckaroo Banzai? Wasn’t he still a scientist in that one?

- Comment on What game sequel ruined a beloved franchise or character for you? 2 months ago:
Sticker Star kind of ruined Paper Mario for me. Super Paper Mario had already gone quite weird, but in a good way - the combat was completely different but it still felt like the original and TTYD in terms of the levelling, exploration, and plot.
Sticker Star, Colour Splash, and Origami King are very linear in comparison, their lack of experience makes battles largely pointless, and the obsession with giant household objects and nameless toad NPCs is getting tedious.
The latest three games were all still enjoyable, but they’re really nothing on the first three.

I think frying that guy’s brain was a lethal option, but the worse one from that level is the brothers who have their tongues torn out and get thrown into their own mines as slaves. Corvo’s blade really is the kinder option!
