The GHZ Forum

They're not exactly retro, but: Shatter has some cool tracks. I particularly enjoy Hyperspace . Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door's soundtrack has a bunch of good songs . Much of the music captures its target mood very well. Evolution & Evolution 2 for Dreamcast both had music I remember really en...

I'm just in the beginnings of this, and so far I think the game is… well, the game is good. I'm enjoying playing it, it's presented well, the camera seems solid, and while there are some design choices that confused me at first (concentration / having to point at the screen in the heat of battle for...

So I had the chance to play this today at PAX. Overall, it seems like it could be good, but it still has a ways to go. In fairness, this was the E3 build, and apparently they've tweaked a number of things since then, but the physics / speed / movement seems off. If you hold right, Sonic takes a long...

Wait, so if Sonic Team made an HD remake for an old game, people wouldn't be happy with that, even if it was really good? Personally, I wouldn't mind: It would show that they can still make something fun, and the could potentially use it as a springboard for new games. (Then again, I'm usually optim...

Man, I got a whole email of bad puns recently. I think the winner was "Sometimes a man needs a mistress just to break the monogamy."

Nice compilation thar, Mr. Lurker. Also, it's not lost on me that that's something of a fansite fansite which is not to say that the GHZ's storied history isn't worth documenting, but is kind of amusing just the same. ;P

SMG2 got something stupid like 17 perfect scores listed on Metacritic, for what that's worth. I've been enjoying it muchly so far: It stays fun and varied, and doesn't have the more mediocre levels that were sprinkled through the first one. Also, many little refinements (like the way you choose stag...

I thought Shadow Hearts: Covenant was pretty good if you're into RPGs.

I don't think the processing power of the hardware makes a difference in the physics, and graphically is certainly outpaces the Genesis. I'm not sure I get your point, unless you mean that because the newer hardware is more powerful it should be less glitchy, which isn't really how it goes. If anyth...

After I finished the final mission I noticed there was an intercom on the desk I could use to invite my love interest up to the room. First time through I didn't have a loe interest, so had no such option. Don't know if you get Kelly up that way, though. :s According to the Mass Effect wiki , Shepar...

Are you talking to her directly or trying to call her up from the intercom. I think you need to use the latter.

I think you can do that after the last mission if you save her (which you can only do if you go after everyone as soon as they are abducted).

At a glance, I would go with Beyond Good & Evil. I'm actually still hoping that it'll show up as a downloadable / backwards compatible(?) Xbox game some time.

That would actually be pretty cool. I enjoyed most of Project Chaos muchly.

Oh man. That is fantastic. I love Tail's faces in the one before that, too.

3D graphics or no, if this had come out in 1995 people would be going mental for it. It's this try-hard, fool-me-once, self-entitled whingeing that's derailing the game thus far, not any creative decision of the dev team. The important difference is that if this had been announced in 1995, the prec...

BUT WHAT ABOUT THE SONIC CYCLE?!

(Look, someone had to say it.)

Man, it would be hilarious if this whole thing was an elaborate misdirection for a new Sega console. :P

The two seconds of game footage looks Sonic-ie, but… episodic? The original games weren't that long, so I'm not really sure how to take that. It could be good, I guess: You could liken Sonic 3 to an episode 1 and Sonic and Knuckles to an episode 2. It could also be terrible, though, if each episode ...

The one really cool thing about the original Golden Sun is when they ask you if you'll take up the quest to save the world, you can actually say no. And the game says something like "…and so they world sank into darkness." and game over's, giving you the option to choose again.

It doesn't seem like a big deal to me either way, but is that still happening? (We'll never know if we don't try! :P) Seriously, though, people seem to quote if there's something specific they're responding, and the original poster can't edit that. Iono, this group doesn't seem like the kind to hide...

Not to steal your thunder, but someone from a blog I read just went himself, and also seemed to enjoy it. Here's a link if you wanna see what was similar or different for him:

The "LOL 18+" on the ESRB rating is a nice touch. ;P

I know an Eddie who was pretty awesome, though he sometimes went by Ed. Eddie most of the time, though. Does that count?
