Jjjusten:Hey look, its the first modern gen trivia game that didn’t make me buy some stupid accessory or mire me in gormless unfunny bullshit! Well scripted and immensely well done all around. I appreciate the TONS of content right there on the disc so you don’t have to run to the download store twenty minutes after popping it into the drive.

I'm guessing yr pretty busy forks, but a week in and we're still not past #109! I'm worried I might no longer be on this earth by the time this thing wraps up.

I recommend more vitamin d

lol that wasn't the blurb I sent in for SSFIVAE. i liked the choice from the thread tho!

I seem to remember from lurking during previous years that these results roll out pretty slowly. I'm not entirely sure why, I'm just getting antsy and trying to resist the temptation to go MORE MORE MORE QUICK QUICK QUICK.

they do roll out slowly, but we usually got a few games every day... since there's well over 100 it still took over a month

about a blob was my vote. i don't have much to say about it. it's sort of a katamari platformer (but not as good as that sounds).

i was thinking about picking up a version of SSF4, what's the difference between the arcade edition and the regular?

No point in getting any version besides the Arcade Edition, has the newest tweaks, the most characters, the most stages, etc. It's the third version, after Street Fighter IV and Super Street Fighter IV.

AE has 4 more characters (using only one new model) and an intentional unbalancing of the characters that they have now balanced out again through a patch.

i try to tell forks every year that he shouldn't post every single game that gets votes but he don't listen what can ya do :/

i was gonna say. how many ppl even voted?

Guys this is a really confusing thread for the layman

New highscore: Got 30,895,214,673 on M.A.M.C.

my final comment would be to take a tip from how the action movie results were presented. nice and neat without a bunch of pointless links and youtube videos. personally have zero use for any of that.

Bah whatever, I like the presentation forks does, I just hunger for mooooore

same, the orgy of media is part of the fun

i often find the links useful tbh altho if i had one tiny quibble it wd be the filling up of the admin log with forks' fannydangling ;-)

Current format is great imo. Even the slow rollout is fine by me (except its irritating to see new answers, click to see what the new results are, and find its actually just people complaining about the lack of new results).

Nothing new until someone mails forks with proof they've completed the previous game.

the media pile-on is kind of deadly to a lot of computers more than a couple years old, i fear

If your PC is that old, you shouldn't be spending money on games anyway.

Other platforms be existin'.

xp Lots of people don't play games much on their computer, dude.

tbh I am happy forks does it this way if only because it seems to have gotten half of ILG on the MAMC bandwagon; I sort of don't care about the rest of the results now

I've just sprung for the full version fwiw

Wrt older computers, checking "images off" in prefs should make that problem go away

Oh, heh, didn't mean "don't buy PC games", meant "don't buy any games, save up for a new PC". But hey, shit gag anyway.

you are not alone
i am here with you

new games plz

yessssss

i am waiting to give all of you my *considered and erudite opinions* on unpopular id game rage in case it shows up here so

jjj

did you get my gift of MAMC to u

I'm on tenterhooks waiting to say "ooh, I'll check that out" for more games that I will doubtless end up not checking out. COME ON, FORKS.

Part One

oh wait srsly!! no let me go check xpost to djp

I'll pay you 5 dollars to post the next game.

i have not received MAMC yet, but that might be because i dont know where to look for it - at work atm so i couldnt download it anyway

EXCITED

check yr email? they asked me to provide an email address so I used j---j----- @ gmail

those dashes probably f'd it up.

hmmm bastards denying me monsters eating condos so far, will check when i get home. also you are awesome

I'm in the office till 8; will be working on this from like 5 to 8 EST
you bastards

we <3 u forks

yay forks! if nothing else this might save everyone from continuing to watch me squabble w/shakey on the comedies nom thread

2 way tie for #107

Jeff: Not as good as Overlord and nowhere near as good as Lair of the Shadow Broker, but it's still Mass Effect and therefore awesome.
Telephone Thing: I just finished Arrival and, though it isn't as half-assed as I'd expected, it's actively insulting, railroading your character into committing a war crime no matter what choices you make.

Interview with Radballs composer Neil Voss

polyphonic: Bejeweled + Lumines + DJ Hero + a dog wearing sunglasses / riding a skateboard.

kingfish: The aesthetics are actually more the point than the gameplay.

Woah, arrival was fucking awful, and I'm one of the ones who pretty much enjoyed every other bit of ME2 dlc.
