  • And I am thanking you TotalBiscuit very very much for being awsome. :D

  • The best hard games are the ones where you know and understand why you screwed up where you did.

    I actually played Demon Souls with a friend, and we were always talking like 'OK, this bad guy's going to be here, so get ready'. It was fantastic because we always learned from our mistakes.

    F-Zero GX is incredibly tough, but from experience the general winning formula is the same- drive well and boost a lot, but the higher difficulties are in the fact the error margins are ludicrously slim

  • Somehow i think there are 30-40 losers that watch every episode AND STILL dislike it.. sigh..

  • @BrassBoyz1 What are you? A stereotypical highschool wigger? Kid, YOU'RE a nerd. Why? Because nobody except self-conscious nerds call people nerds. This guy has a wife and kid, an he's making more money off playing video games, than you will ever make in your entire worthless life.

  • He forgot to mention Infinity which is also currently in development: infinity-universe. com

  • Hey, if the user knows what they're doing then they'll alter the video settings. If someone doesn't know what they're doing then either they would leave them alone or crash the game because of their own stupidity.

  • No mentioning of Sword of the Stars ][?

  • But didn't Star War: Empires At War series did that on PC exclusive?

    Yes production takes time and graphics are poop but if they continued with new graphic benchmarks now it would be great. The series may focus much on the Star Wars storyline but surely that must be small battle during the war

  • YOUTUBE I DON'T FUCKING CARE ABOUT SLATE CARD WITH BLUEPRINT! I HAVE SEEN BOTH COMMERCIALS TEN MILLION TIMES SHUT UP!

  • i have issues with this vid, it doesn't get out of my f***ing subscribtions, am i alone ?

  • Space sims could still be pretty good on consoles, Colony Wars was/ is a brilliant Franchise, but Sony won't revisit it again, I know I would love to have an overhaul for FreeSpace SCP, or even help make it myself, I think it depends on how in-depth you want to go, as Colony Wars had you as a merc, for example.

  • Such intelligent criticism is so refreshing to see on Youtube. Keep doing what you do.

  • i only hear bcuz this is the day of bday... THUBMS UP IF U DONT GIVE A SHIT

  • Hmm, an elite sequel would be epic.

  • Nerd I didn't even watch the video and I still know u r a nerd

  • I agree completely about X3, you should warn people about the obscene learning curve, and less than intuitive interface though.

  • Greetings, Youtube comment hive-mind! I seek a (rts?) game with mechanics that are so complex they will require me to spend hours reading the wiki just to understand what's going on. I think that such a game would intrigue me on a deep intellectual level, and I would probably spend weeks obsessively making and testing my own strategies. Any suggestions?

  • @ross817 Try Dwarf Fortress if you want to spend weeks studying the wiki

  • @turtleaja I have and I did! Thank you for the suggestion.

  • @ross817 Oh well, if you do find what you're looking for please tell me if you get a chance, I myself am looking for a game to eat up all my time.

  • @ross817 X3 Terran Conflict is both a space simulator and a strategy game. It is ridiculously complex, it feels like you have to get a college degree to get into it. Check it out if it sounds interesting.

  • And then TB mentions precisely that game later on in the video. Lol.

  • @ubbecykelkedja You're completely right! Thanks for the suggestion.

  • @RiceCakXxs A space MMO, google it.

  • Talking about Space Games, there's this indie RTS by the name of Star Ruler. It is incredibly complex and the ship editor alone is incredibly fun to tinker around with. You can build ships from the size of an X-Wing to the size of a FREAKING STAR SYSTEM!

    And you can have hundreds upon hundreds of ships! The tactical and strategical depth is truly staggering and even the easiest AI can and will kick your ass.

  • X series is one of the best,but imo X3:Reunion is better than X3:TC ,mainly because of storyline.

  • @Gasert666 Well, X3:Reunion continues on Julian Brennan's story, while X3:TC is around the conflict named Terran Conflict. Both are really awesome games, but Reunion's interface is a pain in the ass. Story is top notch though, absolutely fantastic. TC's interface is a massive stepup from Reunion, but it doesn't have a "main" story. But, still remains that the games are the best space sims since Wing Commander.

  • @KOGE444 Yeah,but I meant Reunion I finished the whole story and played than more,but with TC I get bored because missions were (fly there,then there and then there,follow him for like 30 minutes and fly back) It was pain in the ass and I stopped playing it and returned to Reunion. Now I'm excited about Rebirth,but also scared cuz I fear the change about just one "player ship". We'll see...

  • i play with about 12 fps so stfu my comp sucks but i can play just the same as you can :P

  • @TheBloodninjataro Actually, in a game where you need to be pretty fast 12fps will hold you back alot.

  • @Jonereator2 i managed to tank every siungle boss in wotlk on below 10 fps

    was fecking difficult and w fucked up alot more often then we would otherwise have but its still possible

  • @gregsmw In wow you don't need that much fps but sure it works, but no doubt it will hold you back.. even in wow I would really like to see your pvp though xD 

  • The only reason I don't like X games is its to complex for me, what I want from a space sim is pewpewpewpew in space.

  • All I can really say here is that, well, i'm a console gamer. I like the great simplissity I get for good prices becuase, as i'm sure many people my age will agree, I just don't have the money or the time to invest in my computer. As a football player and a member of a big band I barly have enough time for simply a few minutes of say minecraft modding. For this reason the quik & simple console lets me play alot more than I could on pc. But I just can't stand the limmitations I get placed on me.

  • space sim? those are most definately on the up, what with infinity, the new X game, Miner wars, Blockade runner, drift, starfarer and stellar impact. i belive that space sims are back, and going to take the market by storm

  • I heard pc games have piracy rates of over 90%. That might have something why the number of pc games hasn't increased at the same rate as console games.

  • @sdmitch16 90%? Heh.  Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.

  • @OsomoMojoFreak I was reading a site that said 93% of the people who had gone online on its game had pirated it. Who pirates a game and goes online with it so they can be caught? The piracy rate for that game must be over 95%.

  • @sdmitch16 m8 no game has a piracy rate of over 90%

    the most pirated games will have below 20% mabey even below 10%

  • @gregsmw

    gamasutra php-bin news_index.php story=17350

  • @gregsmw 92%. 4.5 times what you said the highest piracy rates would be. This is online only and who would have the biggest incentive to hide by staying offline? pirates.

    Casual Games and Piracy: The Truth

  • @sdmitch16 your a retard if you believe that

    considering games like starcraft sell in the milions saying that they have a 90% piracy rating is equivilent to saying there are 100of millions of players on those games.

    which there are not

  • @gregsmw Starcraft is one of the best selling pc games availible. The super vast majority of games sell way less than starcraft, in the tens of thousands.

  • Every time, every single time I'm thinking 'I won't read those damn Youtube comments, 90% of people here are stupid'.

    Then I read them anyway...

    It's a weird mixture of sadness and anger.

  • @Bizo0n I really, really wished I didn't think the same think <_<

  • they might of had hiddem the options because they might of not completely finished the options yet or they might just won't to keep it all secret until skyrim or fallout 4 when it comes out i hope.

  • @AdrienePiker whoever modderates TB's account, kill this comment now.

  • @tinalb100 go suck TINA's cock.

  • if devs listened to TB, games would be soooo much better

  • @iAliHD absolutely nothing

  • @XxSlothManx i was joking ...

  • @iAliHD I held shift and disliked your comment

  • @CodMw2FanBoyLuLZ

    so retarded, its a trick to get thumbs upped

  • @CodMw2FanBoyLuLZ hes only joking, its an innocent comment. so why would one be so seemingly pissed at a bit of humor in a predominantly argument based comment stream? grow a sense of humor friend

  • @aldosalthren Because assholes like this guy with his "sense of humor" spam the comments with useless shit.

    Thats why.

  • @CodMw2FanBoyLuLZ while true, you dont need to flip out. just ignore it and move on. At this point its just argument for argument's sake. You're just raising your blood pressure for no reason

  • @CodMw2FanBoyLuLZ Good for you retard.

  • @iAliHD wait what's supposed to... oh you that.... hmm I fell for it.

  • @iAliHD Ha! I tried tthe smae thing, but instead thumbs down! sucess!!!11

  • um.... good vid, this is what some people want is feedback and try to include the people watching your vids involved. which i think is a good idea:) thumbs up!

  • Dear god. Try telling DSP that every time you die in demon souls its his fault, not the games

  • Probably my favorite episode of the mailbox thus far

  • @TotalHalibut

    No mention of Elite 4? David Braben? Thoughts?

  • There is also Shattered Horizon, space FPS!

  • TotalBiscuit maybe you could make the Mailbox into a podcast?

  • lag spike @ 9:59 i'm not getting it xD

  • Good episode TB

  • I miss Freelancer so fucking much....you have no idea!

  • Rage's lack of options is precisely why I didn't play Borderlands either (in the latter case, particularly disgusting defaults for Borderlands)

  • wwhhhhaaat?

  • Games that are difficult must either be addicting enough to keep players going, or be fun enough to move players past their failures. Demons Souls used a little of both to maintain a steady audience, but did not have to appeal to other genre gamers since they already had action rpg gamers waiting for another title.

  • Are there any games like Dark Souls or Demon souls for PC?

  • @Tokiyoshi1 the witcher maybe

  • i wish cod would do that say if its too hard get out...R.I.P famas

  • where's WTF is the binding of Isaac? I'd l've to see your opinion on the game.

  • @ProxAyeMox of coarse I played Demon Souls, I set my difficult to IF I DIE ONE MORE FUCKING TIME I AM GOING TO KILL YOUR FIRST BORN CHILD BATMAN!

  • DAMN COMMERCIALS!

  • come on Freelancer 2!

  • Is it just me that misses Azeroth daily?

  • @Remembrance666 Yes.

  • i want dark souls now : /

  • @TotalHalibut In regards to the last question, Google "Infinity: Quest for Earth". Freeform twitch space-sim with some extremely impressive visuals (I'm not just talking about pretty textures, the guy who made the engine is nothing short of genius). The forums are a little slow, but if you check out their twitter (@inovae_keith) you can see some interesting stuff. Take a poke around the forum/asset bin - I'm sure you'll find something interesting!

  • @MGinshe I'm sure he would find that very useful... if he read comments, but, he doesn't ;-P

  • has someone sent in a video asking what his thoughts are about TT yet?

  • Just got the news this morning about Steve. God Bless!

  • @chlorophylfactor Steve Jobs wasn't Christian. He was buddhist and didn't believe in a god...

  • @Puffindefenceforce relax you doun't have to believe in god to recive a blessing he was just being nice to a dead man R.I.P Steve jobs

  • @RiceCakXxs it's a big mmo

  • I must say. I never really had any interest in Demon Souls, partly due to the fact that it's a PS3 exclusive but after I heard about the atmosphere, the combat and the fact that there are small details like the bell in the gong tower that actually make you feel something as opposed to being a gimmicky. This has made me a lot more interested in Dark Souls. They look like they really know what they're doing :)

  • Are you going to Comic Con next weekend TB?

  • MY birthday!!YEEEEEAAAAAAHHHHH!!!­!!!

  • @sparrov125 :D MINE TOO!

  • Hey TB what do you think about the Old Republic; my personal opinon is that im going to sink a ton of hours into that game. It is a game i have been wait on since it's anoucment, but what do you think about it?

  • About Demon Souls, I don't think its very difficult. I played trough Demons Souls with a lvl 8 charackter. 1 hit and i am dead.

  • no the reason they dont make it advaced options is because kids that own good pcs by there parents dont know how to edit them and parents call and there sick of it

  • hey is demon soul only for PS3? I'm a PS3 (and xbox) player but my friend only has an xbox and wants to know if he can get it or not...

  • @KHfanz Dark Souls (sequel to Demon souls) is for ps3 and xbox.

  • @KHfanz PS3 exclusive.

  • @Eliashedlund alright, my friends going to be pissed lol 

  • @KHfanz heh ;P

  • charlieparra tb song cover at end, lol awesome

  • Star Sonata

  • @Mizukageryu I know! And the army one can build!! OMG!! It's so freeeeaaaaakin awesome! Love that game!

  • whaaattttt

  • Didn't id (or bethesda) decide to not license ID-Tech 5?

  • TB! How I missed you! Stopped watching after you quit that pesky World of Warcraft (Used to love it, not so sure anymore..). Just re-discovered your channel :D

  • @Aseroidify you have a lot to catch up on xD

  • @ric41091 IK! :(

    But I guess that's good, had pretty much watched everything interesting 2 - 3 times before :3

  • hahaha yes terran conflict is a great recommendation. cant wait for rebirth!

  • no way, me and my girlfriend where literally just saying yesterday how we want much harder games to come back :) (one of the reasons to being a final fantasy fan). We wana see bosses coming back that are near impossible and actually require some logic and strategy, so that it is more rewarding when you finally beat it.

    -Beaten by Robots-

  • I wish the demon/dark souls games would come out on the pc. I think they would do extremely well on the pc.

  • Anyone know if there are any other stores in the UK besides GAME that trade in consoles and games for store credit? Those cunts are tryin to scam me and offer barely half of what i paid for the stuff less than 2 months ago...

  • @Solidus1086 What you might need to understand is that when you trade these items in, GAME needs to re-sell those items and still make a profit. So they have to slap a pre-owned price on the stuff, which will be lower than the current new price, and that itself could have possibly dropped in two months you've had them.

    To get around half of what you payed two months in is probably a good deal. I wouldn't be complaining.

  • @SvDKILLSWITCH I guess i lost the most from the bloody nintendo price drop since i bought my 3ds before it got reduced by 60 pounds and they don't care about the ambassador games at trade in.

    The reason i complain about the 1/2 price is because they tend to sell the latest preowned games and consoles at about 10-20% discount when compared to new games, i get them wanting to make a profit but getting about 1/2 price back and not even in cash but just store credit is a bit crazy.

  • *RAGE MODE ON*

    Rage has locked settings? I mean, it has NO settings? That's outrageous!!! I don't care about 60fps, 30-40 is fine for me. What if my grafics card is not detected? I had that issue with the settlers 7. I was forced to MINIMUM specs due to a bug that limited my options. Such things are disgusting. I want my freedom. I don't want some overly self-confident developper forcing me to what HE thinks is best.

  • I kind of blacked out for a minute because of the game he was talking about in the end. what was it again?

  • i cant fucking stand people who send in a comment that has an obvious answer or asking something he explained in the last video

  • I know who.... RELIC... Hellooooooo Homeworld 3! (if only this wet dream of many sifi-gamers was made real it would sell like hot buns on a winters day)

  • @Arcaneraven Don't tease me :/

  • Ahhh, yes, good old X3. Nothing like it.

  • It's like... click, thumbs up, watch, comment, favorite, on to the next one!

  • I believe that the reason why they lock it to 60fps could also be because they are overly cautious of what criticisms they may face if they allow a broader range, or it could even be a problem of bugs with different frame rates so they locked it maybe to do more work on the game then release a patch.

    Though that's about all i have.

  • @Purifiedmagic im prety sure they would get a worse criticism for not having wider spec options

  • 27 people played on insane mode and failed

  • My one great hope at the moment is that Blizzard's "Project Titan" ends up being an Elite/Freelancer style game, I'm sure they'll find a way to destroy my hopes mind :(

  • Space MMO Star Trek Online

  • 2nd diablo vid is a mailbox? lol

    The second question was really interesting to me

  • I would give you 2 thumbs up for just mentioning the X series :D

  • TotalHunter? You should've named her DemonBiscuit!

  • Well on geforce.com there is now a fix to unlock the higher textures in the game. It's right on the front page under How To Unlock Rage's High Resolution Textures With A Few Simple Tweaks.

  • Guys, there is a space sim game in development progress called Starfarer. Its still in alpha though

  • Did somone say space sims? Homeworld 3 please? No...? I'll just go sulk in a corner now then.

  • The X-series is getting another game!? /explodes

  • i got x terran conflict a few months ago played it didn't understand it at all and i recently started playing it again its amazing i can basically set up auto trading ships go to sleep wake up with a pile of credits and then put that into more trade ships or warships for my devious plans >:P

  • So torn, I want diablo 3 but I also want it to have offline Lan.

    time to give spices to pirates I guess.

  • Sorry, but Dark Souls is not always fair.

  • R.I.P Steve Jobs

  • Why you quit wow

  • @akatsukilord12 because the top-level content go redundant and boring. it's just ZA/ZG over and over and over again. even the raiding can get boring after a while. my guild has 5/7 FL on heroic, and although that is exciting for us, we are often on hold, because we are constantly trying to help lowbies lvl up to 85, only to get them to do the same, boring process of gearing up. only this time, you have to do it with them.

    bottom line, wow can get real boring, real fast.

  • Actually NASA is currently making a space MMO, it's called Astronaut: Moon, Mars and beyond.

  • @chuffsoner NASA also funds itself with vibrators.

  • @Inferno3577 To explore vast and deep darkness.

  • I now own X3: Terran Conflict thanks to TB.

  • how about Bohemian Interactive make a space sim

  • I'm gonna take a stab in the dark and say that the user "Anon" is "TotalBiscuit"

  • i really hope tb will play sly cooper 4 when it comes out.

  • I think this is the first time that I've ever heard TB even mention the game Eve Online. : (

  • @Shad0man55 He's definitely mentioned it before, he just says it's a bit complex and has a huge learning curve.

  • Continuing.

    While games today are trying to be like Hollywood movies, submissive things who exist to "tell stories" and to provide audio-visual masturbation, Dark Souls does the exact opposite, it harkens back to what gaming actually is and to me the industry is forgetting.

  • @LaughingUltros Gaming is whatever the gamer want it to be. There's no specific definition of gaming.

  • @lapugenero

    Well, I'm a gamer now, am I not? =P

    So are people who agreed with me, so are people who made Dark Souls sell out in most stores in 24 hours.

    I say we matter.

  • @LaughingUltros Call of Duty made over a billion dollars in a single night. Your argument is invalid. 

  • @lapugenero Participating in a game...There ya go, defined gaming. Youmadbro?

  • Dark Souls has one difficult setting, FUCKING IMPOSSIBLE!

  • @Sqweeby999 Ever play Demon Souls? It's difficulty was "HOLY SHIT BALLS BATMAN, I'M BREAKING THE DISC, I AM BREAKING THE DISC"

  • TB, I hope you are playing/planning to play Dark Souls.

    It's seriously the best game I played in this generation, it's a proper evolution and incarnation of OLD SCHOOL GAMING, it brings the sense of wonder and excitement that was lost.

    I feel like when I was a kid playing Zelda 1 for the first time on the NES, it makes me tingle in excitement and I want to make an actual journey to document my adventures in the world, it's so good it encourages things like this, you make your story.

  • I missed most of the last 2 weeks content due knowing Vindictus before TB playing it ..

  • R.I.P Steve Jobs

  • Why does no one ever know what EVE is?
