summer here kids
MOTHERFUCKING TYPE D!!?? I cannot wait for the release of Shadow of the Colossus. I've been keeping my eye on this bastard since the early days of possibly 2003 when it was still called NICO by rumors- a sequel to the bleak and beautiful ICO. I wish more games like this and ICO were developed, where the simple gameplay is only enchanced by the player's imagination, amazing art direction, and a valuable story. I'm sure there are a few more out there, but the only others I can think of are the Ecco (a dolphin who time travels!) and Panzer Dragoon (deep sea creatures are huge and fly in the sky!) series.
Jesus christ, I remember playing the first Ecco the Dolphin game. I went through some dumb whale phase and my parents got me the game for one christmas. I was jumping out of the water, playing with my other dolphin friends... Till one jerk dared me to jump really high in the sky... that's when everyone was taken out of the goddamn water by some terrible loud noise and the music changed to something morbid. I wasn't that smart as a kid so my brother passed a few levels for me. I remember Big Blue scared me shitless. Then we got cheats and went to the last level, and for some reason my little dolphin friend was in green water fighting things with big alien heads and then came the fucking queen of them which was just a huge head on my screen. Imagine a little Jen who sat there confused, shaken, and slowly felt her childhood corrupted by this fucking fish game. Oh, and the sound Ecco makes when he gets hurt is horrible.
So... You can take your silly games with the guns, polygon breasts, crummy voice acting, what have you, and shove them up your sweaty, socially retarded twat. Oh and you can also take all your Final Fantasy and shank that shit too because you know what I'm sick of the character personality templates and all the nerds who cried when that dumb slut was stabbed can off themselves as well because you know what maybe if that lonesome, boring cunt were at all helpful on my team then maybe I'd care a little bit.
Oh, and I also demand more Go! Go! Hypergrind appreciation.
