I didn't know that Suikoden 2 was on the Saturn. You learn something new everyday.

Speaking of which, this is my question to Carl: Do you miss amp316 too? I haven't seen him here lately.


Sony are the reason SEGA died. I refuse to believe any other made up reason. Sony 4 Lyf.

And yeah, amp316 was great. Had one of the best avatars too. A lot of great members have left recently, amp, Smeags, noname, Ollist... Just to name a few. It's kinda depressing :/

You should change your sig, but only if you replace it with a gif of your girlfriend. I'm curious now!

(Smeags... )


Check your inbox, tell me which one I should choose. Some are NSFW so I didn't post them here!

"On another note, it looks like Nintendo are abandoning that brought so much success with the Wii. They're totally leaving the 'ease of use' mentality that made the Wii so successful with the expanded audience and unless I'm mistaken, it only supports 1 WiiU controller. What? Do they realize how much this will affect the 'party' audience Wii thrives upon?"

I just wanted to know how the hell is Nintendo leaving the 'ease of use' mentality when the Wii U will support up to 4 Wiimote+? I understand perhaps one being upset at only 1 WiiU controller per console. However, they are not abandoning the party audience when there is still the Wiimote+ controller options. I view most games will be developed to work with CC/CCP, Wiimote+, Wiimote+/nunchuck, and the WiiU controller. That gives the developer at least 4 different controller options.   I love how people like to bring up the only 1 WiiU controller per console while ignoring that there will be more controller options available than any other console at launch.

Sad to see Smeags gone.  He was truly one of the best VGC members.


The Wii Remote offered more versatility than any other controller ever. It was designed that way, and it worked. The Wii and Wii games were then built around this control scheme. It was cheap, easily adapted to and literally anyone can point at a screen and press a trigger/waggle. The Wii U is abandoning this and going back to a more traditional controller. Ish. It's bigger, bulkier and has a touch screen.

Also, just because the Wii Remote is optional, doesn't mean developers will use it. It's optional for a reason, not a necessity like the U Pad itself is. Add in the points that the majority of games are going to be PS3/360 ports that already support a more traditional control, a key feature of the Wii U is being able to play using only the controller, no TV needed to be on... And that the Wii U screen/controller will also be used to impliment new features, points towards Nintendo leaving the ease of use. In other words, Nintendo are giving the finger to the older (50+?) Wii userbase. Judging from what I've seen so far, I think Wii U will struggle to do half the numbers Wii did, IMO.

i liked the old banner

besides amp there are alot missing slimbeast squiliam to name a few this trend will only continue

yes change the sig time to retire it

question do like the sites forum more in its early days (crazzyman, megaman, leoj ect. days) or current and why if you could, what games are you defiantly buying this year.  you have your career, gf with nice boobs where do you find the time to post on here i believe we both signed up at the same time but are post count wouldnt indicate that.  how does it feel to know that you werent originally indented for this show


Old forum was better. That's probably just me being an "old" guy though... And I'm not even that old, when compared to certain members. Just seemed to be better conversation and better personalities. There hasn't really been that many notable new guys to the site as far as I can tell...

love the new banner. come back soon smeags.

love it but i think it was too short. i also think you should focus more on the games aspect better yet just balance the field as a whole. just felt to short and a little unbalanced question wise.

this gamertalk was as smooth as i think it can get. really enjoy ya carl, and con the way you worked the convo was well paced keep it up looking forward to the next one.

hey Carl who would you say is the most consistent poster on the site, the best friend on your friends list, your favorite thread of all times, the one thread you wish you never entered, your nemesis on the site, the most disturbing post/thread you ever saw on any site, and the nicest/evilest person you know.


Thanks

Consistant - Rol

Best friend on VGC - Probably trashleg, as she's the only one I actually talk to outside of VGC/Internet.

Fave thread - Demotivators thread. http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=37213

Never wish I entered - Certain shemale porn thread... ¬_¬

Nemesis - Maxwell, probably. Although I suppose he doesn't count anymore, I need a new enemy.

Most disturbing - http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=109537&page=1 <-- That thread showed me "3 Guys 1 Hammer". Shocking. Advise that you don't watch it.

Nicest/Evilist - Hmm... My Grandma is the nicest, and I went to school with someone who later killed someone, if that counts? I suppose he's the most "evil" I know.

So.... This was a kinda crappy thread.

Conegamer, you reaaaaaaaaaally should have waited until we were both online at the same time. Maybe even waited for darth to get back too.

So few posts, it hurts

Well, as I have previously said in this thread, gamrChat is poised to die off as soon as Conegamer and darth run out of interesting people to interview. Although I didn't think that it would be THIS soon.


Let's face it, the first episode was a huge screw up. Most comments were against the show itself. The second episode was a huge improvement, and everything seemed to click. Lots of stuff to do there.

This is pretty much just "An interview with Carl". I'm surprised it even got past 25 posts

I have a question: how come I don't have any pictures in my goddamn inbox?

Also, does 2291 refer to your birthdate?

You've been pretty vocal about being happy that Sega is out of the hardware game. Do you think they might have put VC2 on the PSP and refused to bring VC3 out of Japan altogether just to revenge troll you?

1. -
2. I didn't. I refused to buy a PSP for the only game worth buying ON the system. Valkyria 3 isn't looking likely to be localised neither. Fingers crossed for a VC Collection!
3. Don't really have a favorite. There's way too many! Emma Mae is pretty hot though... NSFW Link here. People now think I'm all pervy and stuff though!
4. Interesting.

Make it affordable.
Have a good launch (First Year) lineup. Don't leave it 2 Years for a big exclusive game.
PSN continued to be free, but with a greater selection of PSone/PS2 Classics.
PS3 b/c
Me = happy

Of course, the first episode was... rough. But despite, or rather because of all those flaws it was interesting to read.

Don't forget that Episode 2 was handled by darth who has the habit of postwhoring and for every update to the original post he made an additional post in the thread.

Episode 3 lacks both of these benefits.

Meh, it kept me busy for 10 minutes writing the answers down. I'm happy to "help", I suppose.

Yes. Fucking SEGA. Shenmue was ass and Sonic is Mario's bitch.

Yeah, I went there.
