Re: Prison of Joy: Confess Your Sins

Well we have these Norwegian docs in our deparment here for 2 weeks and they're all from Tromsø. It appears I was right =)



Also, Video games awards 2012 announced the nominations this year and it appears that Diablo 3 isn't nominated at all. I can't say I'm not pleased: http://railgun.newz.dk/spike-tv-offentliggoer-nomineringerne-for-video-game-awards-2012#new

Re: Prison of Joy: Confess Your Sins

=o It has its flaws, but not even nominated? That's crap.

Yeah yeah! (Tromsø is the easiest school to come into in Norway apparently. Norwegians don't like going that far north, LOL!)

Re: Prison of Joy: Confess Your Sins

Well I can't take this award seriously. The Walking Dead The Game sounds like utter crap. I know I don't know anything about it, but how on earth can that game really be that good? Take in mind I love the series.

Sounds like biased nomination dudes. I haven't heard AC3 being THAT good either.

Well what's funny is that they "buried" Carol without even searching properly for her, wth. They just assumed "she dead!" and voíla, she's in a room, alive.

AC3 is good.
The Walking dead is crap.

Ah, badass Bane. Takes me back to my initial hype for him when the first wallpapers were released.

Yeah I know. Still one can't help but appreciate that ones favorites are given recognition.

I haven't tried AC3 yet. I feel off after Brotherhood. I like the gameplay but it's so repetative.

- Thank you

- I used to think that way too but I gave up after realizing that most of the nomination and award events have other goals that to truly honor the real "best".

- AC3 is good. But it won't suit everybody's taste. I loved "Revelations" and "Brotherhood". They really are repetitive at some stages, but the main story is good and the fights are really fun.

If they're talking about the game by telltale (which I'm pretty sure of) then I can tell you it's worth it. So far it's really well done, totally on the level of the series. Haven't played the last episode yet but so far I love it.

Re: Prison of Joy: Confess Your Sins

I didn't expect anything from Walking Dead game (did you actually try it, Shinshatsu ?) but the overall ranking from reviews AND players is really good. Which push me to hold my bias.

No idea about AC 3. At least I know Jammin has been extremely disappointed by it (read his post in the Video Game section).

Dishonored seems fun, I read the review and watched a video with original ways to kill your target. Sounds fun (but feels like the teleportation is totally overpowered).

Mass effect 3 isn't worth to be best game of the year considering the shitty endings I saw (even if BioWare added an extended cut to calm down the legitimate fan raging). I mean, even if the game was good, the big fat lies from the developpers were too much.

Oh BTW, did you finally play Halo 4, Nuno ? Verdict ?

Re: Prison of Joy: Confess Your Sins

I tried the Walking Dead and wasn't impressed. I think I have myself to blame because I can't be satisfied easily when it comes to movies, manga, anime and videogames.
As I said earlier, AC3 is that kind of game that you will either love or hate depending on how much you liked the previous titles and how much you're fond of Ezio... The only thing I hated about it is that they switched from a great age with thrilling historical environment to a less attractive one...
Dishonored is a game that you'll never play a second time. I felt like playing a game in the arcade when I played Dishonored... It's a poor game. I'm not saying that it's bad and no fun at all. It's just that the huge hype they made before releasing it made our expectations too high for what was really coming.

ME3 ... It was a great game. No one liked the ending. But apart from that, it was a damn good game indeed. And for it to be the best game of the year, I would say that it could be it. Because there are no rivals.

 

[Gats]

Re: Prison of Joy: Confess Your Sins

Yeah I forgot there are no rivals in ME3's area this year (I think)... The punishment should be more severe.
DLC day one on top of that.

Oh I thought you could extent the game experience (Dishonored) by experimenting new ways of assasinations.
This is the video I saw about "the best killer moves" :
Not that understandable for those who didn't at least read a review of this game. ><'

Re: Prison of Joy: Confess Your Sins

I've played Halo 4, yeah. Cleared the campaign in Legendary (first and only run) and played the multiplayer up to lvl 40 or so (a good amount of hours).

Not much to say about the multiplayer. It has the usual Halo quality (good). Still, it kept me hooked less time than Halo 3 and Reach. Not sure exactly why. Still, a good multiplayer with really good map design.

The singleplayer was good too. It was more interactive than before (much more dialogue between Chief and Cortana for instance). The sub-plot for Cortana becoming outdated was touching too, even if it's really weird with the almost romantic relationship between a genetically manipulated super soldier and an A.I. The campaign also focused qutie a bit on Chief's humanity (or slow discovery of humanity), which has been heavily neglected in previous installations. All in all I'm greatly satisfied as a Halo fan since the first game. It felt like a smooth transaction from Bungie to 343, but with 343's touch to it. The graphics were spectacular (Chief also looks far more detailed and badass as expected), the sound was amazing (new sounds for everything), music was superb and the weapons are amazingly balanced unlike previous games (e.g. the classic assault rifle is worthless in previous games, but now it's great in the right situations). Lastly the new race of enemies, Prometheans, gave a wonderful variety to fights in Halo (Flood is just brainless and boring). And their weapons are wonderfully designed, especially their grenades are unique and thus have a sweet unique field of use.

If anything, the game suffered a bit from having to "reboot" for too long. They did the right thing and didn't rush it, but it took some (necessary) time to get Chief and the story in the direction they wanted due to Bungie's previous storytelling. For instance the first map is Chief running around trying to defend his ship that is being invaded by Covenant at the same time as being pulled into the Foreigner planet (Requiem), and the second map is Chief exploring the planet after having been pulled into it, looking for "a ride home" but later investigating something else. Anyway you catch my drift. Overall I enjoyed the game very much. Not a perfect score, but a high one.

Re: Prison of Joy: Confess Your Sins

Since I know I'm not going to play it before....very long or never, I managed to watch some walkthrough videos and all the cinematics '+legendary ending) on youtube when I had the time. Master Chief's armor was gorgeous, same with the new weapons. I also noticed a change of atmosphere like the Covenants not having their funny side anymore.
However, it was a bit weird to see Cortana being that emo but well, I guess 8years+ of service with Chief and malfunctioning made the deal.

This episode seems like a stand alone, I didn't see any kind of hint about an incoming threat in the future.

Is it me or Chief has become a freaking giant at the very last cinematic ? I believe he wasn't that big just after his evolution boost ? :O

 

[Nuno]

Re: Prison of Joy: Confess Your Sins

I forgot to add: Gorgeous cinematics after every mission as well as mid-mission sometimes (when you reach Bravo Checkpoint) were fantastic and added a lot to the storytelling, not to mention the motion capture usage.

Cortana isn't that "emo" that often. She acts up when she gets emotional sometimes as she becomes unable to control herself, and her voice sounds disturbed and makes your HUD act up occasionally throughout the game as she worsens. And yeah, according to Halo logic A.I.'s "expire" after seven years, so she's in bad shape on top of having been through crap with the Chief (being left alone in the Flood ship comes to mind).

Yeah, it felt a bit episodic, but at the same time it left small hints of a dispute between the Foreigners (humanity a threat vs not). I think it's obvious that the Prometheans won't be left out in future installations, so the Foreigners have to be involved somehow. Not to mention the whole plot about evolution would lose a lot of significance if the Foreigners didn't return.

I don't know. Chief was always big

What do you mean about the Covenant's "funny side"? You mean the comments the Grunts bark out sometimes?

Actually by "emo" this time, I meant having such an emotional stance with Chief during their intimate moments (cinematics). Not when she went kinda mad because of malfunctioning.

I thought the only Forunners (you call them Foreigners ? xD) left was the Didact and the librarian. There are hints about others being alive ?

Watch again the last cinematic with Chief...he is a freaking giant now. Compare with the previous cinematics when he is near other humans in Halo 4.

The funny side about mainly the Grunts behaviour yeah.

 

[Nuno]

Re: Prison of Joy: Confess Your Sins

Ah, I see. Yeah it was kind of awkward sometimes really.

Uhm, yup. Typos are great. Who knows, if one was left (the Librarian was only "digital" IIRC), it wouldn't be hard to say "there's more!", but even if there aren't real Forerunners there's always the Prometheans that are a form of "super advanced "humans"" But I think they have to make it more exciting than simply the Prometheans wishing to finish what e.g. the Didact started.

I'll look at it sometime. I didn't notice any major change in his size, but maybe it did increase...

Didn't pay much attention to the detail about the Grunts. They do at least run at your awkwardly (in a funny way) when they want to blow themselves up.
