Good stuff, Mega Man related.

You know some Japanese kid would find a way to beat the game at the end.

This lets you drag'n'drop your taskbar items to rearrange them. It's awesome.

That is awesome. I won't install it at home since I don't need it, but man would I kill to have it at work where I am running at least 2 copies of IE, Excel, a Unix Terminal front end with 4 sessions running in it at bare minimum (chance of having more is huge). When Excel crashes (which it loves to do) and takes down IE with it then my work day goes to shit if I don't close everything and open up stuff in the right order.

I know Grefter's been ragging on the game since it's inception, but.... ::Insert random Socialism joke here::

VySaika · « **Reply #506 on:** July 10, 2008, 06:20:13 AM »

Yeah, grabbed that Taskbar Shuffler myself. It will be a lifesaver when I'm GMing, as I can have anywhere from 4 to 10 character sheets open at once, and that's not even covering notes, the Main Game Sheet full of links I have for each game, and other such.

This will help immensely.

Grefter · « **Reply #507 on:** July 10, 2008, 10:48:31 AM »

Yeah I made jokes about it being banned due to being so bad it is horrible. But yeah I can't say I agree with refusing to give it a rating.

Australia not having an R Rating available for games is just another kind of stupid

More Pokemon Platinum stuff, most notably that Giratina Origin Forme gets Levitate to shit on Groudon and Shaymin Sky Forme gets Air Slash and Serene Grace for some incredible hax potential (60% flinch Air Slash, 80% -2 SpD Seed Flare).

Full Metal Alchemist OP/ED redone with FF6 characters. Pretty impressive. Reminds me of the Ouran one.

Just saw it this morning! Yeah, its indeed funny enough, especially if you're familiar with both things! (I assume nearly everyone is familiar with at least ONE half of the splicing <.<)

I had to turn it off immediately when I heard it was Ready, Steady, Go. That song makes my ears bleed.

Get better ears. Those ones suck.

And yeah, saw that video last night. Good stuff.

Sorry, L'Arc is a terrible band. I give them props for their GTO opening, but... ugh. Such boring music.

Meeplelard · « **Reply #516 on:** July 12, 2008, 09:58:55 PM »

Red Sniper Joes? How random, mostly cause besides MM2, they've always been green!

Still, the trailer does seem to show the game bringing back the charm of the original NES games. Didn't notice any charge shots being shot though <_<;

Rock Band 2 full setlist. They got AC/DC! Also, Chinese Democracy may, in fact come out before Duke Nukem Forever.

Wii-Motion Plus. This is some sort of attachment that gives the Wiimote 1:1 control, by which I mean if you move the Wiimote it tracks your movement exactly instead of just interpreting it into some sort of set move. So like sword-fighting or whatever will depend entirely on your movements. This is supposed to be a E3 thing.

Speaking of BioWare games, there's a new KotOR game in the works "with an MMO component." What that means, exactly, I do not know.

Here I was kind of hoping Obsidian would get another swing, but this time, LucasArts wouldn't make them cut out the entire goddamn ending of their game.
