What's this about Pit codecs?

Apparently others were trying to do Pit codecs of some members here. This gold Pit is surprised he wasn't part of it yet. D:

I JUST REALIZED SOMETHING

It might just be me and i doubt anybody but me cares but I just wanna get this out there. The fortress boss music (first video) reminded me of the Gypsy Kings. The more spanish vibes coming from the vocals and guitar from the song sounds at least influenced (whether intentional or not) from them and more specifically the songs in videos 2 and 3.

Those are famous european spanish songs so i don't think its too much of stretch to say there was some influence from them there (whether intentional or not. again a lot of spanish songs sound similar). The only reason why I'm bringing this up is because it made me nostalgic. My mom used to blare gypsy kings on saturday afternoons as she was cleaning and even though I wasn't a fan of spanish music, they were epic. Also I used to hear this song in the 90s and I played SMW like crazy in the 90s when she would play them I would be playing SMW. Thanks Nintendo for the double whammy of nostalgia =')

Well, that ship is extremely slow and the music doesn't convey any kind of serious threat

also it just kind of disappears before it's even fully out of sight

Also the clipping

 

[Evello]

Every time I look at the SSB4 CSS I think it looks really weird and disorganized. I think it's the offset rows. I find this:

feels much more organized to me than this:

Anyone else prefer the Melee-esque shorter bottom row layout?

 

[FalKoopa]

Going to be blunt; I'm not sure what people are referring to. The bad voice acting?(n which 06 had it better) Bad clipping? Bad cutscenes where people stand around and do nothing?

I just don't get it. I saw the cutscene before and still didn't piece it together. It's probably obvious, but eh.

Let's see... the hilarious clipping is obviously an issue. But not just that, the cutscene doesn't make even a lick of sense. An enemy ship suddenly appears and goes away just as suddenly, and the music is incredibly unfitting for a scene like that.

It's less to do with the programming (which isn't really bad, from the looks of it), but the direction. Who the hell green-lighted that cutscene?

 

[ZeldaMaster]

Sonic Boom the show is aright... let's see how the game fares though

 

[ShrekItRalph]

Bah, site maintenance, the bane of my existence.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

They added Total Recall, TMNT, Batman (Tim Burton) and the Rocketeer to Netflix

The Rocketeer is the first movie I saw in theaters

(Or, you know, the first movie I remember seeing. I COULD have seen a movie before that but was just too young to remember)

Ahhhhh. Clipping aside, 06 seemed to have far better cutscenes.

Right. I can say that 06 did a better job with the cutscene presentation. Its gameplay was mostly fine, outside of glitches, imo. Boom may have more issues with the physics... like Sonic the Hedgehog Genesis did.(not the exact same issues, but the concept of physics failing ruined the game)

 

[Sehnsucht]

Is that seriously all I am known for?

That, and your glorious collarbones.

 

[Soul.]

What changes did ORAS bring Greninja? :O

It got Gunk Shot, Low Kick and the elemental punches...possibly other stuff I don't know.
It benefited from the offensive boost and power.

 

[Admiral Pit]

I may not be getting ORAS, but I wanna know what new stuff the Fennekin line, Yanma, and Gardevoir get, out of curiosity.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

How come Zapdos can't get hurricane

 

[Rysir]

How come Zapdos can't get hurricane

Its got tiny wings thats why.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

It seems like it'd work out good for him, since he'd do pretty good while it's raining

Edit: I'm just saying

Zapdos is the only Legendary I've ever had on a team

He deserves 110 attack power move that never misses in rain

 

[LunarWingCloud]

Because giving good Pokemon good moves is a bad idea, silly~

Good thing it gets Thunder then.

In all reality they probably didn't give it Hurricane because having bother Rain-enhanced moves with STAB would be a little ridiculous. Even if, you know, its Pokédex entries say it can create storms.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

Wow Sonic Boom (the Wii U game) Looks like the sequel to Sonic 06 that I always dreamed of.

Please don't let the whole game be like this.

 

[Frostwraith]

Oh hey look, a new Sonic game and it's shaping up to be yet another disgrace? Why am I not surprised?

Now, as much as I would like to challenge some of you to a few matches, I'm afraid I'll be busy for the whole day.

No tipping scales, no evil kings, no sending people to the stratosphere.

I want that Mewtwo DLC so badly...

 

[Swamp Sensei]

Oh hey look, a new Sonic game and it's shaping up to be yet another disgrace? Why am I not surprised? .

Sonic Unleashed, Sonic Colors, Sonic Generations and Sonic Lost World were all great or decent...

Not all of them were awesome, but they weren't disgraces...

Sonic 06 was better than this if the whole game is like this. At least that game had some level of polish.

 

[ShrekItRalph]

Please don't let the whole game be like this.

The fact that the review embargo doesn't lift until the day the game comes out doesn't give me much confidence in Sega's confidence in this game.

Also some kids managed to snag a early review copy, go to 18:25 in this video to see something hilarious.

...Okay, now that I see the actual video instead of a lame gif that doesn't explain this, this is just... wow. I mean, that's a major deal...

Time to go home everybody...

 

[Radical Bones]

I've been worried about Sonic Boom for a while now.

It's certainly not a Wii U console mover. I'm a loyal fan, so I'll give it a go but... ehhhh.

 

[Logsmash]

Seeing ORAS stuff has made me realize just how much I loved Hoenn and the 3rd gen Pokemon. It might just be my favorite gen, after 1 of course. Then again, there are also Pokemon that I like from 4th gen, and 2nd... and 5th....and 6th (even though I haven't played it).

I guess what I'm trying to say is I love Pokemon. But for real, R+B>all.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Hoenn gives me a chance to use pokemon I never use

 

[Logsmash]

Well, I'm off for the night (what's left of it), farewell Social Thread! I'll be back to say good morning in just over 4 hours.

 

[elusiveTranscendent]

I have really bad problems with procrastinating. Holy crap. It's 5:17AM and I wake up at 6AM for school. Looks like I'm not sleeping. :V All nighter. Whoo.

What is this "school" you speak of?

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

People are saying the Sonic Boom 3DS version is pretty good

I THINK that's only because it's being compared to the Wii U version

At most it looks alright

 

[RamOne]

Got a new phone yesterday and the difference between SmashBoards on this one and my previous one is gigantic.

/noridleyjokesplease

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Just saw some more of the 3DS game

It looks wonderful in comparison to the Wii U version

I've played the demo, it's competent, but extremely uneventful. One thing that stood out to me most about it is the game feels really slow, and I don't mean slow for a Sonic game, if this was a Mario game it would still feel very slow. I think the game will end up being okay but I don't know if I want to spend my money on something that is just okay, partially since I don't have either the excess money to spent on games at the moment or the time to play them.

There that's my review on Sonic lost world 3ds, since I am now a reviewer give me my review copy of SmashWiiu Nintendo.

Why, Sega?

Not Sega this time.

Big Red Button!

 

[elusiveTranscendent]

An unfortunate thing that I must attend.

Big Red Button!

Ironically, that was the name of our Concept Visualisation team during my first year at Uni... coincidence?

Still, Sega. C'mon... You're supposed to be their supervisor. How could you let THIS...

18:25

make it through a fresh new game?!

That was quite a nosedive, both literally and metaphorically.

Sounds awful!

 

[elusiveTranscendent]

Quite. ;P

Edit: You know what would be cool? A Greninja 3DS theme. I'd pay for that.
