Friday Night Rant #43 - Nintendo Network, DLC, Resident Evil, Dear Ester

[rhyfel1]

however you word it DLC is a fucking rip off nothing more nothing less.

[jurassicjunkie]

@rhyfel1 Yup, I miss the days when a game came on the disc and that was it, not DLC no codes to unlock things.. just the game

[rhyfel1]

@jurassicjunkie yep the good old days but seriously m8 things are only going to get alot worse because the game devs know that whatever thay do thay will get away with it, people want to stop moaning about DLC and WHC an do somthing about it "ie boycot the games" iam getting to the point where iam going to go PC and pirate everything and give the game publishers the middle finger like thay have been doing to us.

[jurassicjunkie]

@rhyfel1 Thats funny you should say that as I was reading an article about saying no, and im going to talk alot about it on this weeks FNR

[kakabixlis]

oi mate on a quick note,found my old nintendo DS and started to play Mario Kart on wifi lol!i love it it is soo funny!it is oone of the games that bring you a smile on your face even if you had a bad day!:)!!hope all is well with you :)

[jurassicjunkie]

@kakabixlis hahah Sweet, I just downloaded one of the old versions of mario kart from the estore... :D

[8comicbooknerd9]

Oh and I forgot to say, I know old style resident evil isnt for everyone. Its Ok. I accept that there wrong. But if you do like run and gun, check out the trailer for Resident Evil six, it looks fucking badass! Operation Racoon City is looking pretty smart too.

[jurassicjunkie]

@8comicbooknerd9 As for Resident Evil 6... well I can say this looks like it could be my first Res game I buy as it does look fucking epic! I cant wait to see more of it

[LLOYD19851012]

@jurassicjunkie What do you think of Resident Evil Racoon City?

[8comicbooknerd9]

I re-bought an original PS1 just to play FF7, as after rushing home "charlie and the chocolate factory style", the Phat PS2 wont play it. I was so dissapointed. My step brother, seeing how much I wanted this, took full advantage when selling me his ps1.

[jurassicjunkie]

@8comicbooknerd9 Nice to see your step brother cashing in when your at your lowest lol

[AtsumaKarin]

Awesome Friday night rant, mate! (Well, Monday night for me lol). :P

Anyway: yeah, it's nice to hear Nintendo might be starting to get things right in some respects: I didn't like the name: "Wii" in the first place so I really hope they come up with something genuinely creative this time.

That's insane stuff re: EA and DLC for ME3. I never was overly bothered about that company before but honestly, as time's progressed, I've gradually become more and more disgruntled by their conduct (cont)

[AtsumaKarin]

@AtsumaKarin for much the same reasons as you, although I'm not that wound up that nearly every week, they feature in a rant video. ( I do like that, btw). :P

Yeah: I really don't watch TV anymore. I find the vast majority of TV programmes to be really dull and uncreative, which is why I tend to get my TV fix on YouTube instead. :P I liked watching Gamesmaster and the like and I'd have thought now more than ever before, there'd be an audience for it. Even if it *had* to be FPS/Racing (cont)

[AtsumaKarin]

@AtsumaKarin games 90% of the time. Hopefully, they would cover other genres from time to time lol.

Answer to your question: most of them, I think lol: N64 - Super Mario 64, Xbox 360 - Perfect Dark Zero, Wii - Super Mario Galaxy, Nintendo DS - Pokemon White are definites. I probably bought the SNES solely for Super Mario All-Stars and the Megadrive/Genesis for Sonic the Hedgehog too but I was so young back then, I don't remember for sure.

[neojake999gamer]

Nintendo Network may have taken a while but it looks and sounds like it might be worth it. And I hate DLC too but would like to see Nintendo DLC. More and more, I am becoming a fan of Nintendo.

[PompeyGamesRoom]

@jurassicjunkie seriously thinking of buying a 3DS for Resident Evil lol! Great video buddy.

[MovieMadness10197]

question of the week: I havent done it before but im planing to get an Vita just for the Uncharted game :)

[jurassicjunkie]

@MovieMadness10197 I really want to try this out.. .fingers crossed they have one to test in my local store

[djscottbrady]

i bought a ps2 slimline on the day that gta san andreas came out on the ps2, i already had an xbox but i had just got paid from a new job and there was no way i was going to wait for the xbox version! looking back the game was way too long though, i cant see myself ever revisiting it and trying to complete it, it would take months!

[jurassicjunkie]

@djscottbrady I would never go back and complete it again but I will play it.. I think I would get as for as unlocking NV area so I can steal jets and then I will be happy

[djscottbrady]

@jurassicjunkie i will get it on ps2 again at some point, i will probably buy an xploder and download a save game for it, i remember some really tedious bits in the game, like working as a truck driver and learning to fly, the missions seemed to go on forever!

[kakabixlis]

Well mate i am happy you enjoy your DS :)!!well that LPB thing reminds of the future creditkits they used in sci fi to transfer credits!sounds cool!!hahah i LOVED the EA(Evil Alliance) i laughed my arse off!!speaking for ME3 they milk the cow to the bitter end mate and i hate it..as a older dude i remember the days EA was making one on one basket on C64 and things where different back then...such a shame...:( I hope you are not overtired and well in health mate!be well!!

[jurassicjunkie]

@kakabixlis Glad you liked it mate :D .. as for EA its a shame as they have some many good games, but they just take the piss and like you said milk the hell out of them!

[Jamesdalbright]

I am excited to see that indie movie myself, I was just reading about it Thursday. Now as for consoles I bought for games, I have owned alot of systems here would just be a few that were extra of their gen so i could play the games Gamecube for Zelda, PS3 for Uncharted 1, Xbox Original for Halo 1 and N64 for goldeneye. 3DS is the only handheld of this gen I do not have and i have been really wanting to try mario kart 7

[jurassicjunkie]

@Jamesdalbright I think I could add PS3 for Uncharted in my list as well :D

[AndsyNF]

I purchased a PS3 - solely for LBP. This was 6 months before release, and I was creaming HARD over LBP. I convinced myself that it was everything I ever wanted from a game, and ended up sinking near £300 on the console just for it.

[jurassicjunkie]

@AndsyNF I got LBP for PS3 as soon as I got it, but truth is I've not played much of it as I fell in love with uncharted 1 2 and 3 and never gave it a chance

[ClichePsychoShow]

To paraphrase Yahtzee 'EA arnt stupid after all, they're just greedy exploitative fucks'

[jurassicjunkie]

@ClichePsychoShow Yahtzee is a god, and he is also right :D

[shockz16]

Nintendo Network logo & DLC repeatedly flahsing on screen are you trying to subliminally hypnotize me into purchasing DLC from the Nintendo Network? lol.... I actually brought my PS3 just for MGS4 (which was good) & Gran Turismo 5 (Which was utter shite).. which is why it now mainly collects dust & is used for exclusives I will get some use out of it lol.

[jurassicjunkie]

@shockz16 lol I had too much time on my hands this week so want to hypnotize people :D I tried to play GT5 but ended up giving it back to my mate, as I like forza more

[BoxmanWTF]

...every console and PC I've bought (also will be getting) is purely for upcoming sonic games XD

I'm getting a laptop just so I can play Sonic Generations and Sonic CD (again)

My fandom has no limits :D

List of Consoles-Sonic Game

Dreamcast-SA1 and SA2

GBA-Sonic Advance 1-3 and Sonic Battle

DS- Sonic Rush

Wii-Sonic Colours

3DS- Sonic Generations...the watered down version D:

My Laptop in May- Sonic Generations Steam

[jurassicjunkie]

@BoxmanWTF hahaha you really are a true sonic fan boy :D

[TenFootGuineaPig]

Where do you work JJ? It's starting to bugg me that I don't know! lol

[jurassicjunkie]

@TenFootGuineaPig lol, I work for a computer company that monitors servers for faults.. so thats why its 12 hour shifts as they need to be monitored 24/7/365

[SirBattleOps]

i tell u 2 games that should be brought back

the 1 which i would love to see back definatley would be time splitters what ever happened to that game it was emmense especially the multiplayer

also dino crisis that was a fantastic series what do u think?

[jurassicjunkie]

@SirBattleOps I never played time splitters lol.. but everyone always tells me how I've missed out... I think I need to go an buy a copy

[chanceicle1]

I got a 3ds to play zelda and i got an xbox360 so i could play fable 2 when it came out.

[jurassicjunkie]

@chanceicle1 I love fable 2, I still think its the best out of the 3... Im going to have a full on zelda day tomorrow as I need to get in to that game

[chanceicle1]

@jurassicjunkie I really enjoy the fable games and Nicely done, I need to have a zelda day too. I've been playing so much saints row and skyrim lately I haven't given my zelda games much attention.

[lvpepe38]

No sponsored drink. Im disapointed. lol. The nintendo network sounds great. Im glad nintendo is finally starting to listen to its fans. I bought the original xbox for halo and fable.

[jurassicjunkie]

@lvpepe38 I love fable, but never been a big fan of Halo... but I do want to buy the remake and get in to it as the online looks great

[iamaporkpie]

same dark souls is pure evil lol

[MJC312]

LOL @ the intro XD. The Wii U rebranding talk just makes me even more excited for E3, as well as the Nintendo Network. As for the question, I guess the closest I've ever been to something like that was when I got my GameBoy Pocket when I was little, I wanted to play Pokemon Blue haha.

[jurassicjunkie]

@MJC312 A few people have said pokemon.. I've never played one before

[SOLIDSNAKEXXX360]

take off your shirt

[adfot1]

bring on a nintendo network, mariokart just isnt enough man...Resident Evil looks wicked def buying it its online as well you team up together.. spelling mistake epic fail yet again :) Looking forward to the HBO show, gaming tv is limited and poor to say the least. I bought the N64 when it first came out soley for mario64 but then fell in love with that little badboy :)

[jurassicjunkie]

@adfot1 Tv is poor mate, and I cant wait to see what online games we are going to be getting on the 3DS

[mikey3565]

your from the uk right try brothers strawberry vide comes in a pack of 8 from asda fucking sweet :D i love it its 4%

[jurassicjunkie]

@mikey3565 I do like brothers strawberry ... but I LOVE the toffee apple

[mikey3565]

@jurassicjunkie ha nice i normal have 8 cans a week seeing as its week you can drink a shit loads its the only cider i drink that a kopperberg pear thats fucking nice id only i could stay at home all day playing video games and drink alcohol then me life would be done :D

[GarethsGotcha]

How are you going to watch a Television show without a TV License?

[jurassicjunkie]

@GarethsGotcha hahah ;) I will watch it on demand... as long as its not live you don't need a License

[bilo01708]

Sorry got to say it as it bugs me every week you say it. It's "Bought" not "Brought"

[jurassicjunkie]

@bilo01708 ill try my best to not bug you next week :(

[L1nKo64]

Capcom are worse than E.A. I dont get how people just turn a blind eye to Capcom shitting on their fans.

[jurassicjunkie]

@L1nKo64 I filled in the Megaman form on Capcom site to try and get the game up and running again... but yes capcom are fkers too

[L1nKo64]

@jurassicjunkie MvC3 = Capcom shitting in their fans mouth.

[raccoon3069]

should really try them, really good story if you can actually get into it, not for everyone though i admit :)

[KieranD212]

I dont mind substantial DLC, back in the old days of pc gaming i used to buy proper expansion packs but now i think a lot of developers are taking the piss with single items or very expensive map packs.

I liked Microsoft points so i didn't have to enter my credit card details (also points on sale work out cheaper than direct buying) but Microsoft are discontinuing points.

[jurassicjunkie]

@KieranD212 I forgot to say, but it looks like Microsoft might be killing the points system and moving to real money... I hope if its true we can buy pre paid cards so we dont have to enter our credit card details

[fireleegend]

Yeah a ps3 just to play heavy rain but it was worth it :)

[jurassicjunkie]

@fireleegend same here... well that and uncharted

[misterbiglee]

i bought a nintendo ds just to play aliens infestation :) but have picked up some good titles since :D

[jurassicjunkie]

@misterbiglee I've not played aliens infestation... I will have to check that out

[SooperDVDNoodles]

Haha so ironic... there was an EA ad (for a tennis game) that played before I was able to watch your video. Damn you Evil Alliance!

[jurassicjunkie]

@SooperDVDNoodles Yeah it did the same to me and I screamed NOOOOOOOOO out lol

[iamaporkpie]

ps3 for demon souls

[jurassicjunkie]

@iamaporkpie I didnt play that but I do have dark souls... im only a little way in to it tho ;)

[Rtboh]

I'm getting a Vita ASAP for Uncharted. And Modnation Racers, Littlebigplanet and a bit of doctor who will be great!

[jurassicjunkie]

@Rtboh I've heard alot of good things about Modnation Racers :D

[raccoon3069]

3DS for KH3D but resi revalations and ocarina of time didn't hurt ;)

[jurassicjunkie]

@raccoon3069 Jo likes Kingdom of heart games, I've never tried them

[2129261184]

DSi to play HeartGold :P

[jurassicjunkie]

@2129261184 I've never been in to pokemon, but thats due to me never trying one before

[2129261184]

@jurassicjunkie It can become very addictive, be carefull :P

[Rtboh]

I think you should go to GAME or Gamestation tomorrow. They have Vitas to try out

[jurassicjunkie]

@Rtboh I dont think I will get one, but I would love to try one.. sadly I will spend next 4 days sleeping as im working nights

[jurassicjunkie]

[RetroGamerVX]

[jurassicjunkie]

@doginmylense lol, it does seem to be a Cuddle rant.. I also got my gold wheels today im still in shock how much I love this game

[str8kracker]

I bought a PS2 just to play GTA 3...it was great!!

[jurassicjunkie]

@str8kracker I missed out on PS2 as a kid, so GTA3 is the only one I didnt play much of

[shock25sr]

Haha!Nintendo must of seen my coment on the last FNR and made a proper network :)!Cool of them!

F*****g EA leaches again..!When will they stop!?

Thanks for the heads up on that movie!Love video game documentary! Have you watched "The King Of Kong"?? A must see mate!

I bought a ps2 to play GT4 and dug up a NES to play the ORIGINAL super mario bros!

Cheers mate :)!

[jurassicjunkie]

@shock25sr Yeah its nice to see Nintendo are doing things right now, as for King of Kong I bloody love that movie :) and the indie one im talking about looks really good :D

@KaotikKnight Never been in to Halo much, but I do want to get the new remake as the online does look like great fun

[Tino777]

I bought a Ds just so I could play the castlevania games on it.

[UnholyGamer1]

[chryslerperry]

I paid £250 for a PS3 just to play Heavy Rain :)

[jurassicjunkie]

@chryslerperry well I kind of did to play Heavy rain / Uncharted :D bloody great games

[MrRicco24]

Can't believe I didn't miss the friday night rant last week! Must have been too busy to notice.

[jurassicjunkie]

@MrRicco24 lol I got a few PM's form people asking about it so I thought I needed to say sorry :D

[ResonanceGamer]

@jurassicjunkie Thanks for the apology, you didn't need to! On another note, has anyone seen the alienware x51 mini gaming pc thats xbox sized? - looks wicked!

[jurassicjunkie]

@ResonanceGamer Just had a google now :D that does look VERY nice

[Snestastic]

Great FNR Tom :) I agree we need some proper tv shows, Sky should have a bloody channel by now. They have so many shit channels full of pointless crap, they could ditch all them and give us something worthwhile. The game shows on different sky channels so far are utter crap, they are stuck in the 90's and not as fun with idiot presenters or stupid voice overs by people who know nothing about gaming. Anyway lol yep I bought the original Xbox day 1 just to play Halo, was worth every penny :)

[jurassicjunkie]

@Snestastic yeah I really do wish we have some TV shows as I would love to get home and sit back with jo and watch gaming news or something

[PaulBlakeman7]

I bought an NTSC PS2 just so I could play metal gear sold 3 early as I lived in the UK at the time.

[jurassicjunkie]

@PaulBlakeman7 hahah now thats dedication :D

[ClichePsychoShow]

the Nintendo Ultra would be a sweet name

[jurassicjunkie]

@ClichePsychoShow yeah at least thay can keep the U just drop the "wii"

[darrenwalshsock]

Awesome T-shirt mate! The Nintendo news is interesting and if they get the pricing right like Apple have it could be something special :)

[jurassicjunkie]

@darrenwalshsock yeah it does look like they are starting to come back and listen to what people want :D

[TheAngryAppleNerd]

hey tom great rant as usual for the answer to your question i have 2 consoles first my nes just to play mario but then i got more games for it and second my play station 3 kinda i got it just for uncharted then i saw all these other amazing games so that one was sort of like that any way great rant tom :)

[jurassicjunkie]

@TheAngryAppleNerd Thanks a lot mate, and I also kind of got a PS3 for uncharted (but I also wanted to play heavy rain)

[PulpVideos]

Great video, and great to see Nintendo doing all the right things for once :D

[jurassicjunkie]

@PulpVideos Yeah it is, all they need to do now is have a large release of WiiU games on launch and Ill be happy

[johnwilliamson47]

Great Vid!, thanks for the info about the mod not seen this and def worth a look!, it may even get ported to next gen machines if it sells well on pc, and putting it on steam is a good move!, haha i can't get enuf of Ea bashing, it's just a shame you can't boycott them as they really hold the cards in so many titles i want, wish there was more publishers but thats coming back at least on pc with indie titles, keep up the good work :D

[jurassicjunkie]

@johnwilliamson47 Thanks a lot mate, and yeah EA is so big its not like we can spot buying just EA titles as its about 50% of my game collection lol

[TheDandyHighwaymanX]

To answer the question a few years ago I purchased my Xbox just for the original dead rising lol

[jurassicjunkie]

@TheDandyHighwaymanX I've never played much dead rising but that was due to L4D being out at the same time

[ScratchMasterWebbe]

Great video, I watched it on the toilet, I have never bought a console for 1 game

[jurassicjunkie]

@ScratchMasterWebbe LMAO glad to know where my videos are watched lol

[RedH0plite]

Hey glad youre enjoying youre 3ds...

Dude Mario kart games have always had 8 cups with 4 different tracks..= 32 tracks.. How can u be bored of them lol?!

On the question : I got my ps3 for uncharted, my megadrive so I could play " shadow of the beast "again and my 3ds for Ocarina of time

[jurassicjunkie]

@RedH0plite Im not bored, but I've played over 21 hours and got my gold wheels already in 5 days lol... so I've seen those 32 tracks over and over again lol

[TheDandyHighwaymanX]
