So am I the only one who's disappointed that the new IP Firaxis announced was just another Civilization game. But in space.

Now that I have a game capture card, I think im going to dig up some old footage of games that never had capability to save online.
I think I'll start with the epic Street Fight IV series between Funky Fly and I during the TPWW tourny. |

Yeah, I'm liking that Not-Resident Evil. Liking Not-Mega-Man as well.
I could use some Not-Power Stone, and whatever else Capcom refuses to do or do right. |

Has anyone here played Forza 5? Does it have any sort of off road racing in it? Been playing Dirt 2 a little lately and it's fun, but I was planning on getting Forza when I get my XB1 so I was figuring it might kill 2 birds with one stone as it's hard to say when the next Dirt game will appear.

So far, no. The worst thing about Forza 5 is the lack of tracks at this time. They have a "Rally" division, which I was excited to try, but sad to find out it is only the car type that fits "rally" and not actual rally racing I would rent it for 2-3 days and see what you think. I bought it and AC Black Flag with my system, I haven't touched Forza in about a month. They did just add a new track from California, but still, not many tracks at all. |

That's what made me hesitant about it to begin with, but I've seen it come packaged with the system so I thought it might be cool. But I figure with the way they roll out DLC, and the fact I probably won't get it for a few more months when I'm able to finish off my 360 library that maybe they would have more tracks by that time and hopefully some dirt.

Dirt and even some rain and/or night driving would be nice additions as well. So far, none of that exists

In any case he is more than welcome to head to 343 and lay down some tracks for Halo 5. This guy can write his own checks; he's the Hanz Zimmer of games. Hell, if he starts doing movies, he could give Hanz a run for his money.

This looks badass. Kinda reminds me of how the Batman games shifted when the Arkham titles started being made. Webbing through the city looked really fun
First Spiderman game I have wanted to purchase in YEARS. Now if only a Superman game could catch a similar break. Also, a Justice League game in this style would be very welcome! |

Been trying to find a name for the guy who created Megaman, but coming up with nothing. Everyone always just says Inafune created Megaman, But he didn't. And Inafune himself only ever refers to him as "mentor" or "project supervisor". Never by name.
You'd think someone who created such a phenomenon would be more known, even if he hasn't been in the industry in a long time. I'm thinking he did something that got him blackballed, and no one even says his name anymore. Only reason I can think of why this guy and his accomplishments have been wiped from history. |
