I can absolutely tell the difference between classic 30 fps and 60 fps. Like i can tell the jump from 720p and 1440p.
Starfox have been mentioned but there's plenty of very good western games on the SNES and some of my all time favorites were made in the west. Shadowrun, Another World, Flashback, Zombies Ate My Neighbors, Smash TV and Total Carnage, NBA Jam, Aladdin, NHL 95, Rock'n'Roll Racing, Desert Strike, Mortal Kombat(s), Lost Vikings, Blackthorne, Syndicate, Lemmings' and Uniracers, some people like Secret of Evermore but they are wrong.
I have one. I like it, though the D-pad is stiff and the buttons are a little too small and recessed to be comfortable. Tony Hawk's Underground 2 Remix is a hassle to play on it because of just how teeny tiny the buttons are.
On that note, CoD4 on Wii is a glorified rail shooter. It's quite impressive how they jammed a blockbuster game like CoD4 onto weaker hardware.
Star Fox was designed by Miyamoto and directed by some other Jap, and the soundtrack was composed by one too. It was really just westerners who were in the trenches, I think. Not that it doesn't count for anything but virtually none of the creative elements were up to them, so I don't count it personally, unlike DKC which was mostly Rare.
Your basic best-of-SNES list is all 1st party Nintendo, jRPGs, and Megaman. tbh if Star Fox is in the running I don't see why Killer Instinct, Smash TV, Earthworm Jim etc can't be. I mean at least they actually function on the hardware, that ought to be worth a few points. Somehow sidescrollers were mostly beyond the comprehension of 90s west devs and 16 bit consoles were sullied with catastrophic Amiga multiplats.
We can't play House of the Dead properly on modern consoles which is one reason why video games are now dead. Motion controls are good for pointing at things and bad for stuff you can do with a single button press, not complicated, should be simple to keep that straight, but Wii devs were retarded or oppressed by Nintendo's dumb mandatory-waggle policies.
Old people are fucking dumb too. I don't really need any kind of "here's my opinion" essay if it lacks any thought I couldn't have come up with myself.
He can't be all that dismissive, apparently he liked Prince of Persia Sands of Time, but also hated Beyond Good and Evil and trashed the devs pretty badly. (this is what i remember from a podcast thing i heard with one of the french devs)
I was playing Duke Nukem anniversary and I forgot how much of that game was "ok, now where the fuck do I go?" I think that's why Half-Life was so successful. There were multiple paths but it was far from a maze where you're wandering in circles. The levels weren't linear like a Call of Duty game either.
Half-Life blended "open-world" and "linear" quite well. There's one clear path to go irrespective of player choice BUT each level has character. It's arguably more realistic to have levels with forks in the road to make the world feel alive.
Thats also Shadowman, i don't really remember if it was good or not but remember constantly being lost, never did beat that game.
Not a lie about Dark Souls, easy mode in DS comes down to your build and looking at guides but Sekiro does forces you to git gud or quit.
There is literally a spell in Nioh that works on every enemy and boss that slows their movement speed to a crawl and can be used to cheese through the entire game.
Yes and then you learn rather quickly that trying to use sloth as a crutch will just lead to you getting fucked up in big fights.
Fuck Miyamoto. I'm sure it's easy to design games when you have your software team there and can work hand in hand with them to figure out the console's quirks and how everything works.
But Sekiro is easy.
You're better at videogames than me then because Sekiro kicked my ass.
The programmer responsible for Final Fantasy 1-3 was Nasir Gebelli. He was a very talented Iranian Apple II developer living in America that didn't speak any Japanese and yet ended up working for some tiny Japanese company called Square. All this talk of a language barrier and how the NES was so super complicated is pure cope. Western devs figured out the hardware. They made games. They made a lot of games, in fact. They were just shit.
