AdventFalls

I found a few games that work for the Multi/Single.

Mad scientist might be the Quick Look- I will give a big finger to the single/multi quest. There's no concept for it that I could find, so I was desperately guessing.

I'm not really sure you can make a judgment call on the 3DS this soon to the launch. Yeah, it's not got a great launch lineup, but not every console has a killer game that every gamer with the system should have at start (Mario 64, for example).

Other than that, it looks like a solid list.

Not in the slightest. I haven't even had my 360 for a year.

For most of the consoles, I don't see trying to start up a new generation as a good idea. People are trying to save money right now because of the economy, and seeing the price points for new consoles might give them sticker shock. The tech might be there, but there's really other issues at play.

I was under the impression the Kinect was supposed to give the 360 some more time this generation, and the PS3's taken such a beating over the past generation that they probably could use the additional cycle time to make up for it.

The only console manufacturer that I can honestly see a new console being a good idea for is Nintendo. They expanded their market share considerably with the presence of 'casual' gamers, their console was essentially a beefed up Gamecube with motion controls, and the price point has always been low. With HD penetration at a fairly high level, this is actually a good time for Nintendo to start rolling out their new console.

Microsoft *could* make it happen given it was pretty damn successful as well. But Sony? Oh, Sony desperately needs more time to make this generation work.

Hey guys- I'm AdventFalls, and this is the BombQuest.

About a week ago, I started up the BombQuest as an experiment to see if people wanted older or rare quests to be focused on a bit more. While there hasn't been much feedback, I can tell that people at least looked at the post.

So we're gonna do this again, with a quest set that made everyone go fucking insane when it came out: Globe-Trotter.

Globe-Trotter is.... a fucking nightmare because of one specific quest in the set. They're all rare, but there's one particular quest in the set that made people go fucking insane in the membrane.

With that said, let's start! This is Globe-Trotter: 6 quests, 22 things to find, 1,100 XP.

What? I don't have to be a fanboy for the big franchises and whathaveyou.

Hey guys, this is AdventFalls, and I wanted to try something a bit.... different.
 
Giant Bomb's been online for roughly three years, and one of its big features is its online database for all things video game related. As anyone who frequents this part of the forums knows, there's a quest system attached to the database- find certain pages based on hints, you complete quests and gain XP. Takus108 is developing a betting functionality where you can gamble your XP to bet on how highly a game might be rated ('I'm Calling It', look in General DIscussion for the relevant blog post), but other than that XP and levels mainly serve as a measure of prestige.
 
The quest system's been around long enough that new users might not get as much help as the 'old farts' who were around for some of these quests. This is also a bit more complicated by the fact that Community Quests often take up a large chunk of the community's focus, putting the spotlight on the new quests- I don't have a problem with this, I actually think it's a good community exercise. But it does leave older quests, well.... forgotten.
 
This is where I'd like to step in. This is BombQuest.
 
If people like this, BombQuest is going to consist of me going up to quest sets every once in a while and giving out hints, tips, and/or tricks to accomplishing the set. I'm not going to give out the answer wholesale,since that not only defeats the challenge, it's very much frowned upon. 
 
I'm going to lay down a few rules I go any further, since I will drive myself insane if I don't at the start.

• BombQuest will not cover any quests currently undergoing a Community Spotlight. There are threads for Community Spotlights, and making a BombQuest dedicated to one of these sets would be redundant. Quest sets that were undergoing one at one point are fair game.
  
• No limited edition quests. Not only is it literally impossible to get these quests right now, but the community will band together to solve these quests on their own. 
• No moderator quests. You have to be a moderator in order to even START working towards these. You are probably not a moderator.
  
• Quests involving editing the wiki are A-OK. This means I might (and likely will) end up covering quest sets like 'South Boston' and 'Catch and Release'.
  
• BombQuest will not cover any quests that its writer hasn't already beaten or at least is close to beating. How am I supposed to help you guys if I need help myself?
  
• Finally, unless specifically requested, BombQuest is going to focus on 'rare' (purple) quest sets. BombQuest does take requests!

Count me in, probably don't have time to add everyone yet tho....

Inevitable that there'd be those maps. Still, fingers crossed good maps aren't caught in crossfire.
 
EDIT: Also, holy crap first.
