Yea. I want to say one influenced the other, but they pretty much came out at the same time, within months of each other. Jungle Hunt is apparently trying to be a Tarzan game, and the earlier version, before the law suit, was a Tarzan game. Pitfall might have been thinking of Indian Jones, which came out the year before.
What is Platinum Games doing the next Metroid. . . Awesome!!!
A friend of mine was telling me how people were shouting things at the screen when he saw it. I didn't have that problem but when Godzilla showed up full length for the first time, I wanted to get up and shout, "Godzilla! Godzilla!". Luckily I didn't do it, but if no one was there. Oh yea, I would have.
The Book of Kings I think would make an interesting RPG. It could be like a Final Fantasy game. The Book of Kings is about Israel centuries after the Exodus. There is internal struggles as King Solomon, once a good king, becomes corrupt. Then the Assyrians from the sea attack and then the Babylonians attack and conquer, sending all into captivity. This could be the first story with the second story being about some sort of return to glory. It'd be epic! Maybe throw in some big battles, Suikoden style.
I like your Samson idea too. Lots of potential there.
Oh yea, I didn't notice that.
DId you know Peridot is also an olivine gem-stone, like her hair.
Funny thing happened. I got both Bad and Good Touch weapons and went to the side of Moxxi's bar in Sanctuary, where you look out on a void, to shoot them and see what happens. After using the Bad Touch weapon, I hit the wrong button and dropped it. Of course dropping something in B2 is really like throwing it, and I had to watch as it sailed out over the edge and into the abyss. I'll never get that one back again. The Good Touch was funnier to have anyway.
Oh yea, I saw online that there are all sorts of Moxxi weapons. One's called Miss Moxxi's Slow Hand and there's a rocket launcher called Miss Moxxi's Creamer. I want this sniper rifle you can get in Ore Chasm:
Gentlemen's Chere-amie.
As your birthday and Pac-Man's are the same, you should totally cosplay at your own birthday party - like this guy.
Did you see this today? I heard about it on Twitter but this is the IGN article. Hidetaka Miyazaki, director of the Dark Souls games is now president of From Software. There's suggestion that he's working on the Demon's Souls sequel and maybe adding guns to the mix. Guns! Wah?!
Liquid kids was really inventive and interesting. I should probably try it again sometime.
Loony Landers was pretty neat. That's another one that sticks in my mind although I didn't make it a favorite. There was some great creativity going on there.
Space Invaders Extreme looks really cool. Wishlisted it.
I'm wishlisting it.
