Indie, but not alone: How Vlambeer's advice helped guide Dog Sled Saga

Rumor: Super Mario Galaxy leaked online
Oct 25th 2007 8:50PM (Joystiq)Actually I think that would be funny.
Closing EBgames, I mean.
Nintendo uses natural selection for its quality control
Oct 25th 2007 7:54PM (Joystiq)The article itself sucked HARD.
If anyone remembers correctly (or if they were even around to remember), Nintendo created their approval system for the NES to prevent schlock from Atari's generation coming to the NES. Not every game that went through was spectacular, but it did its job.
Then near the end of the 16-bit generation Nintendo got crapped on for 'having too MUCH' control over other developers' products.
Now Nintendo is minding their own business and they still get crapped on.
EGM themselves were there. Did they care so much about 'teh future of game quality' to look back at their own SNES/N64 reviews to see that Nintendo got some amazing games for their systems? Why's it any different now?
And oh yeah, they quoted a guy from SONY of all companies about how they deal with publishers. I mean, the PS1 and PS2 were the BASTION of quality game development, ESPECIALLY the PS2 in its first year, M I RITE?
Also, I'd like to thank EGM for paying someone to write about crappy games. EGM hates bad games, and yet it's Seanbaby's bread and butter.
This issue also contains damage control in the letter section regarding their Lair hype in contrast with the final product's score.
Way to go EGM. :/

Weekly Webcomic Wrapup: Ludwig already did it
Oct 21st 2007 1:20AM (Joystiq)First Super Street Fighter II HD Remix video is underwhelming
Oct 20th 2007 10:13AM (Joystiq)I'll stick with 3rd Strike. :P
September NPD: Xbox 360 takes the lead, Halo 3 to thank

Smash Bros. Brawl's Wiimote controls
Oct 17th 2007 12:24PM (Joystiq)And yeah, this game seems like it will play much more like a sidescroller than previous Smashes.
Smash Bros. Brawl's Wiimote controls
Oct 17th 2007 12:16PM (Joystiq)This will be the first scheme I try out. :D
Capcom announces Street Fighter IV
Oct 17th 2007 11:27AM (Joystiq)But SF4 will do just fine. :P
To be honest, I'm hoping that the UDON guys aren't working on this as well.
Retailers list 360's Tomb Raider Anniversary for Oct. 23 release
Oct 17th 2007 10:58AM (Joystiq)Damn dude, it's called the Report button. Though I guess most posters, no matter how flustered they are with each other, would rather flame than help with the moderation.
As a moderately-reputed NDFer, I [for the most part] take exception to your proposition of banning the console wars. In fact, I'm still considering reporting some NDFers because they, along with blatent trolls, ruin every thread with their idiotic exchanges, not because of "console wars".
---------------------
That said, I can't wait to try out the Wii version. Between this and Legend, they've done a pretty good job of reviving Tomb Raider.
And that image is awesome. :)
