Sweet!

Great you got the Frozen Endgame trailer in there, considering it was announced hours ago. Frozen Synapse was exquisite, so I'm really pumped for that Frozen Endzone, despite it's horrible title.

Avalanche? Wait, no, not that Avalanche.

Oh thank god, I was just about to fear for Just Cause 3.

Thanks! I have no aversion to quirky games, so I'll probably check the game out.

Not all of my questions have been answered though, so if anyone can answer those I'd appreciate it.

Okay guys, I need your help on three things:

1. How do I approach Barkley, Shut Up and Jam: Gaiden?

I live and grew up in the Netherlands, and thus have not experienced the 'basketball era' this game seems to be referencing. I know Michael Jordan's name, but that's about it. So, would the game's humor be lost upon me if I would play it? Do I need to watch Space Jam first? Should I even bother with it?

2. Can someone give me some context on that Dark Souls LP? Why is the video remarkable, what am I missing?

3. @mdnthrvst said:

>"The story is a comedy with a touch of romance, lots of drama, and laced with erotic situations."

If this is the caliber of grammar we're working with, no thank you.

I'm not a native English speaker, can someone point out to me what's wrong with this sentence?

Thanks in advance!

@noby_guy: @Graham_Nix: could you two please try this one?

https://www.dropbox.com/s/lkphhym2xj3ebiw/Megaman%20X%20GiantBomb%20V1.10.zip

and let me know if it runs

thanks

This one was already removed, but v1.11 works perfectly for me. Great work Fobwashed!

Also, does anyone have any tips on defeating Ryan for someone who has never played a Megaman game?

I read you wanted to know about problems, and I have one. I tried to install, but got a pop up saying:

'No suitable graphics card found.

Could not find a Direct3D device that supports the XNA Framework HiDef profile.

Verify that a suitable graphics device is installed.

Make sure the desktop is not locked, and that no other application is running in full screen mode.

Avoid running under Remote Desktop or as a Windows service.

Check the display properties to make sure hardware acceleration is set to Full.'

I have no idea what the things mentioned in the last two lines are. I know shit about computers, but here's what I think the relevant specs are:

OS: Windows XP professional

Processor: AMB Athlon 64 X2 dual core 3800+

Thing: NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GS

Memory: 1GB RAM

Hope it helps!

Hey Patrick

Sorry for this unrelated question, but I just watched the previous TNT that and heard you guys talking about games you wanted to complete before the GOTY's. I don't know how much pressure you've had from other people, so I hope I'm not obnoxious, but I noticed you didn't mention Virtue's Last Reward. Do you have any plans to finish that before the end of the year?

I feel 2012 has been a very strong year for stories in games, seeing as even several non-indie games had meaningful tales to tell (The Walking Dead, Virtue's Last Reward, Spec-Ops: the Line, etc.) and a GOTY 'best story' discussion would be incomplete without VLR.

Article was great BTW, I have the exact same situation with my 20GB Xbox :V

EDIT: Oh and here are two suggestions for my favorite part of WR, the short games. They both sound like commercials, but the suprising part is that they're both staggeringly good and funny (for pseudo-commercials that is). You'll immediatly see what I mean.

@Mr_Skeleton: Her face is much more detailed than her body.

It's like they drew a body and then inserted a human face that has gone through a 'cell-shady'* filter.

*Don't know shit about graphic design jargon.

I've always wondered, how do games and movies compare in how much they are the vision of one person? Is it really only the (few) director(s) who make(s) the decisions, or are games and movies significantly affected by their staff (style-wise, not quality-wise)?

Also: quest get!

Excellent stuff, by the way!
