My Confined Space

yeah, but it’s on the ps3, so that’s a strike against it already, right?

Comment by tiki god — May 13, 2008 @ 10:33 pm

i dunno, i couldn’t get into it. seemed like it was constantly ‘loading’ on a next-gen system that shouldn’t happen.

as for the PS3, in my opinion is way better than 360. has blu-ray, you can surf the web, don’t have to pay to play online and no red ring of death.

Comment by ogie — May 16, 2008 @ 1:10 pm

Another nice thing about the PS3, its’ blu-ray drive software/firmware(whatever it is) can be updated so it will be able to play all blu-ray discs where as some original or older players won’t(read that somewhere, correct me if i’m wrong)

Comment by collegeboy — May 16, 2008 @ 1:45 pm

I got this game a little while back. Its a great game, but it has some conversation flaws with the main male character not making sense sometimes. I’ve yet to beat it just because it can get somewhat repetitive. Awesome story though.

Comment by Tardex — May 16, 2008 @ 1:59 pm

@ tiki god true but I like the use of sixaxis controller.
@Tradex it is repetitive but the storyline and really cool cut scenes/folk make up for it.

Never heard of it. Is it coming to a successful console?

What good is free online play if you’re the only kid in the park?

HAHAHA YOU OWN A PS3. Sucks for you.

movie wasn’t all that great.

ABSOLUTELY LOVED their version of the song “one winged angel”

Comment by sonictech — May 16, 2008 @ 8:49 am

you have to admit, tifa looked pretty damn hot in that movie

Comment by Bran — May 16, 2008 @ 8:54 am

at the risk of infuriating some of you fanboys out there… Final Fantasy hasn’t been good since the SNES… as soon as they had the technology to show us what the characters actually looked like (gay lady-men)… I denounced the franchise. I even tried to play Final Fantasy X, but that bitch Yuna pissed me off, and the guys looked like done up glam rockers. GAY!

I’m sorry for offending those of you that I actually respect. You’re allowed your vices.

@Camiam

i’ll give you Tidus and Wakka, but Auron is all different flavours of bad-assery, both in deed and appearance

Comment by Alpha Harrison — May 16, 2008 @ 10:03 am

@Camiam

FFVII may be the best RPG ever created, so if you have not played that one you should try it.

Comment by chupathingy — May 16, 2008 @ 10:36 am

That movie was a total mess… paper-thin plot, zero character development, runaway-train pacing… nothing but pure eye candy for fanboys. Fiasco doesn’t begin to describe it.

At least The Spirits Within attempted to have some kind of story and character development and wasn’t just Square jerking off.

Comment by deuce — May 16, 2008 @ 11:39 am

@chupathingy it may not be. earthbound, chrono trigger, ff4- 6, dragon quest 4, treasures of the rudra, secret of mana, link to the past

Comment by asdf — May 16, 2008 @ 12:06 pm

geez i forgot lufia 2

Comment by asdf — May 16, 2008 @ 12:09 pm

@ chupathingy

Okay, I did play through some of VII and thought it was great in many ways. but i must agree with chupathingy… Earthbound and Zelda II for SNES are amazingly good. Perhaps not as in depth as FFVII, but flawless in their own right. And I did enjoy Chrono Trigger and Secret of Mana.

@ Alpha Harrison

I can accept that. touche. I’m just a little tired of the excess of eyeliner, mascara, teased hair, and femanine-featured heroes in the FF series… just as I’m tired of the grizzled marine cliche in combat games (Snake not included).

Comment by Camiam321 — May 16, 2008 @ 1:12 pm

I meant to type Zelda III for SNES, not Zelda II. Whoops.

Comment by Camiam321 — May 16, 2008 @ 1:13 pm

FFIX was on the same path as all the pre-VII stuff, but like someone mentioned FFX and FFX-2 were right back to the emo bullshit

Comment by tiki god — May 16, 2008 @ 2:21 pm

@ tiki

Agreed.

Comment by Camiam321 — May 16, 2008 @ 2:54 pm

No one has ever played the game properly.

Did anyone else have trouble keeping the net up or was my game just fubar defective?

Comment by TrayShadix — May 15, 2008 @ 11:20 pm

the only board game you could play by yourself and actually have fun.

Comment by storminator — May 16, 2008 @ 12:38 am

I remember the net being notoriously difficult to keep up. My sister and I simply agreed to not put the net up there until one of us was eligible to drop it on the other.

Comment by MikeBabaguh — May 16, 2008 @ 2:38 am

I had the game and the trap never really worked for me. The backjumping dude never ever landed in the tub.

Comment by Asinine — May 15, 2008 @ 11:42 am

I agree. This is bolics.

The momentum needed to have the second cup have an arc of coffee ejected like that would mean the coffee jug would have to be pored from at least a foot away from the original cup.

Yes I have played portal WAY to much…

This is a triumph…

Comment by AlecDalek — May 13, 2008 @ 8:30 am

I played through most of this game back in the mid-90s. Lucas Arts’ finest graphic adventure. There are flaws, but the humor and style make up for it all. Give it a try, it’s at least worth playing a bit.

Comment by Camiam321 — May 12, 2008 @ 6:06 pm

SCUMM rules.

Very funny game, not as good as the cartoon series though.

Great fun. Lots of lunatic humor.

Comment by slothman — May 12, 2008 @ 7:23 pm

As a kid I played this when there wasnt much else.

Now I play it because its both a throwback to that sort of gaming but mostly because its really fun/funny

Comment by talllankyguy — May 12, 2008 @ 9:32 pm

I remember playing it as a kid and not getting why everyone thought it was so funny. Then I picked up a big collection of old LucasArts games with ScummVM, and had some hearty chuckles. I was inspired to pick up the new ‘episodic’ Sam & Maxes, and almost without exception they’re full of hearty chuckles and laugh out loud moments, which keep you from bashing your head against the wall during some of the more devilish puzzles. Much like the original, really.

Comment by AgZed — May 13, 2008 @ 12:34 am

Sam And Max Hit The Road was a hell of a game.
Not played the episodic releases yet, but they look tempting.
The cartoon was pretty awesome too bt findinf eDonkey links is troublesome.

At first I thought obvious troll to provoke flame-war.
Then I realized you were serious.
Then I thought about how I love the first game.
Then I thought how low my standards are.
Then I didn’t care.

Comment by Max — May 12, 2008 @ 10:57 pm

I’ve never been interested in it as it’s aimed at Xbox owners.
If it’s meant to be played with a pad then using a mouse will make it laughably easy.

Comment by Ando — May 13, 2008 @ 3:36 am

this is my first post here, been following the site a really long time, but tiki did you have to use my gears of war pics as a segway to how much you dont like the game? btw if you havent figured it out i was the one that posted them on /hr/
