Come on staff, superpals stick together!
Jaaaaaaayn, SynK is being mean to me and saying that you don't like me ;_;
Halloween is such a fun holiday.
And? It's still just as desperate.
Out of curiosity, did you feel the same way when it was released on steam a couple of months back?
This is undeniable proof that we totally owned you lamers.[DOUBLEPOST=1381438541][/DOUBLEPOST] That was normal back then. Most threads had at the very least multiple pages back then.
According to this it will only be released digitally in Europe. There goes my plan of getting multiple copies.
Amano's got some great art, but damn do they not work as portraits since they look nothing like the actual characters.
While I don't completely agree with all of your examples, your point is more than valid. You can definitely tell some great stories through gameplay and interaction, it's just that most people decide to either focus almost entirely on the gameplay without much of a story, to split up gameplay and story completely or lastly to sacrifice gameplay for story. For two great examples of how to tell a great story through interactivity and gameplay, there's Ico and SotC. They have a couple of cutscenes, but for the most part the story is told through the gameplay. Hopefully The Last Guardian will follow in the same suit, but that game is probably going to be a mess when it finally releases.
It's also equivalent to those old point and click games, isn't it?

Spoiler Americans always get the worst boxarts. Still, it's amazing that you weren't swayed when they were in the clock shop, where the owner was apparently killed by the Origami Killer. Not only shouldn't this be possible, but you can also hear the thoughts of Shelby and he was clearly shocked about the murder. When I first played it, I was certain that the story decided who was the killer based on how you played the game, otherwise it didn't make any sense and there were so many plot points left hanging. Then I found out that it was always the same person and my opinion of the game sank quite a bit.

To stay up, or not stay up? Decisions, decisions.
Now you guys can reenact that time all the admins changed their names to different drinks. Those were the days. Congratulations to you both, Jayn and Plums!
Played it, but had no idea what to do to get past the first level. Not knowing English was difficult gaming times. Luckily my brother beat the entire thing and scarred me for life with the later parts.
That's literally what it always meant.
