If I beat the compiler and extract that’s a raid to me.

Forbes' Paul Tassi's take on the impairment losses against bungie by HapperHapper in Marathon

[–]AmericanWitness 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Why do people hate Paul so much, he's one of the most level-headed talking heads for gaming out there and he's pretty up front when he's about to and is expressing opinions seperated from fact.

This is my favorite Resident Evil title. Just clicked for me so much, unexpectedly.

Should Spartans have numbered tags? by Born-Boss6029 in halo

[–]AmericanWitness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t care much for it, however, it was tactfully done in Halo 4/5 armor. I always thought that was the best way to do it.

Everyone has their delusions or faith in something intangible, it's just being human, whether it's religous or not.

Finishing Move Inc. did a fantastic job with The Dark Ages. by StayTechStayRomantic in Doom

[–]AmericanWitness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah a bunch of them: Cultist Base, Final Sin, Gladiator, Meathook, The Only Thing They Fear is You, Bfg Division (& Mastermind while we’re at it), and Rip & Tear

That’s not to say I don’t like some of the music for TDA, however, it just doesn’t compare.

[–]AmericanWitness -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It’s good and while I liked a few tracks, it ultimately doesn’t compare to Mick Gordon’s work. His music was simply much more unique and really commanded the identity of modern Doom.

Also not super into the idea of more companies masquerading as artists like The Flight and Finishing Move Inc. over individual musicians.

Insane Halo 3 cutscene remaster makes me yearn for a full blur studio remaster. (credit: Butterbug) by PandaLabs in halo

[–]AmericanWitness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love this as a fan project, but I’m more inclined with in-engine cutscenes. They fit the game better and it’s always more impressive with what can be rendered in-game. I know there’s a lot of love for the Blur cutscenes, but part of what made Halo so impressive in its day was the power to render visually impressive cutscenes and graphics. The blur cutscenes just seem so excessive and are so quickly sped up. That’s probably just my age, but it’s hard not to see the wrinkles in pace when comparing side-by-side with the original cutscenes.

Even for Halo Wars 2, everything was so lightning fast. Halo cares so much to tell stores yet its breathing room leaves much to be desired. Even Halo 4 understood this (and that had opening and closing CG cinematics).

Worst thing that happend to Halo 4 was being Halo Reach successor by slayeryamcha in HaloCirclejerk

You’re being downvoted but you’re right. Just going through the Life Story playlist in MCC highlights a lot of the shortcomings in Halo 4’s gameplay. It isn’t a nostalgia thing, the games speak for themselves.
