ddickinson: Braveland Pirate has jiggle physics? I could understand a game like Leisure Suit Larry using it, but in most games it looks cheap and out of place. You guys do know there is free porn on the internet, don't you? You don't need to spoil games with all this childish stuff. :-)

I guess some use it to be more realistic?
Yes, it does. And it has absolutely no place, given how completely cartoony every single element of the game is.

Realism is good, but it's pretty rare to find it used for that without the extra element of titillation added to it.

Stilton: For sanity's sake, this is a can of worms I'm going to leave closed. It could spread like a voracious and unpleasant rash...

Although it reminds me of some (most) of Michael Winner's films. The hits got swamped by the misses just after the start and the pile just kept growing. They're still marginally entertaining and infinitely preferable to dealing with visits from the in-laws, but they aren't much use for anything else.
If you pursue it, you could end up like me, having every bad game with a bit of history to it in your library, with you dreading having to actually play the frigging things at some point.

I think I had better call it a night. I am still not really that tired but I need to try to get some sleep as I know eventually all the stuff today will catch up with me and I will be asleep fro ages while my body recovers.

Have a good evening, everyone, and thank you fro the lovely chats.

*goodnight hugs and waves*

The cartoony style is what made me wonder why they would use it.

I guess that kind of thing sells, or else they would not feel the need to do it so often. A bit like the amount of games now with sex scenes and things like that.

Goodnight, Crow. Take care and have a lovely weekend!

No clue, honestly. It just comes out looking bizarre.

Oh, I'm sure it helps to a degree. Sad and lame, but I wouldn't bet against it.

Get to feeling better, lady. Have a good night. =)

ElTerprise: Yes same here....

I guess David Cage needs some writers (as in someone who can actually write a game properly) who can influence him...maybe that might make his future games less awful....i mean i like the premises but the executions......
That would be good. Just have a squad of writers and editors to contain the pure suck that seems to ooze from virtually every pore.
Breast jiggle physics ... yeah, that definitely puts me off. It seems so silly to put emphasis on that in a game. Most of the time it just makes me laugh, but then again, I suppose I'm not the target audience. :P

ddickinson: Maybe that is Crow's plan, trick us all into wanting to play it. :-)
I'm sure that's it. :) Night, DD! *hug*
Please bombard cecil with +1s for being a great ninja!

Having a team of writers would definitely help. I mean it worked for George Lucas and Empire Strikes Back which is clearly the best Star Wars (at least imho)

It's a cheap way to sell moar copies of the respective games to pubescents ....

I got the entire botched movie off the internet and watch it when I feel down. :P

Good night! :)
Hello to the few still awake. Pleasant dreams to the ones asleep or going to sleep.

How is weekend for you? I hope it is going well although a bit grim due recent events.
Some people are already getting ready for Christmas, changing avatars and stuff. :-)

Guilty.

I had nothing better to do today.

Funny thing is I tend to despise this time of the year; depresses the shit out of me! :P

It would be better with a month long sale, no? As soon as possible! No need to wait. :-)
