  1. Trine 1 and 2 definitely need more attention, like Tich said. Seriously, the games are beautifully designed and the attention to detail in the scenery is amazing to say the least. Not to mention the gameplay is great. Here's a really obscure one: Iggy's Reckin' Balls on the Nintendo 64. It's a weird mix of genres, a combination of platforming and racing. You play as, well, balls, and you have grapples, and you have to navigate a tower. Really, you don't see creativity in games like that much anymore.
  2. Earlier I was thinking, and there are a lot of awesome games that never really get a lot of attention. Sure, we all know manestream games like Super Mario Bros., Call of Duty (number here) and Final Fantasy (number here), but what about games that are great, but nopony really knows about them? Let's list games we like but don't get talked about a lot. Who knows, you might learn about a game you wouldn't have thought to try otherwise. I'm going to kick-start this thread by mentioning A.R.E.S.: Extinction Agenda. It's a great platformer, remniscent of games like Megaman X, but I never see anypony mention it. I probably would've never gotten to play it had it not been in an indie bundle some time ago. Short, but great, and an epic soundtrack. Second, I'd also have to mention Zombies Ate My Neighbors on the SNES (Don't have the Genesis version). It's an excellent 1-or-2-player top-down run-and-gun-style shooter, where the goal is to rescue survivors. Tons of weapons, nice looking visuals, lot of levels, about 48 or so, it's just begging for a 4-player HD remake.
  3. Now that I am more awake and alert, I'll post my more in-depth opinion of the episode. As soon as everypony started building up how Applejack was going to win first place at the rodeo, I knew she wouldn't. Mostly because, well, every episode needs to have a "problem" and it seemed pretty obvious that would be it. I liked seeing Applejack's faults shown, and they didn't go over-the-top with it. Pinkie Pie's annoyingness being weaponized gave me a laugh. Chimicherry or cherrichanga? And Derpy. How they did Derpy makes me happy. Not only the fact they used the fanon name (more on that in a moment) but the voice they gave her. They didn't go overboard, and give her the stereotype "crazy character" voice and personality, but rather went for the "bumbling but means well" type. As for the name, while Derpy Hooves is a nice name, the "Hooves" part kinda makes it.. weird somehow. They never actually mentioned "Hooves", but in my opinion, I think it would be better Derpy Hooves and Ditzy Doo met half-way, and became Derpy Doo. In the future, I'd like to see more of the fan-favorite background ponies get a "moment" like Derpy. Also, kumquat.
  4. I agree with the Big Macintosh crying scene, and also add .
  5. People complaining about Derpy being "offensive"?. Good cod, what the heck. Since we're complaining about things that are not problems... The little fat pony in Family Appreciation Day? No, that's insensitive to people suffering from childhood obesity. Fluttershy's shyness? No, that's insensitive to people with antisocial personality disorder. Pinkie Pie's constant need to party? No, that's insensitive to the suicidally depressed, and to people with PPD and autism. Twilight Sparkle having more magic power than all the other unicorns? Why does she have more magic power than all the unicorns that aren't powerful like her? All unicorns of all colors should have equal power, otherwise it's racist. The Cutie Mark Crusaders looking for their 1 special talent, and failing? No, that's insensitive to people with Savant syndrome. If everything is 100% "politically correct", you cannot have a story. Because for every completely innocent character or aspect, there's someone to blow it out of proportion and claim it's offensive.
  6. Well, yeah, I preferred it back in the old day, but I find the game's still fun when you play with friends. Yeah, only the PS3 version of Portal 2 has cross-platform support. I derped out there. Stupid Microsoft, not letting cross-platform support be a thing. http://mlpforums.com/public/style_emoticons/default/dry.png Mkay. I don't have you added yet, do I?
  7. My response to this episode was a combination of and . Needless to say, I liked the episode. I kinda predicted the plot from the get-go, but it was still a great episode. Was great seeing the Derpy-or-Ditzy thing confirmed, great seeing Derpy with lines, and seeing Derpy doing stuff. Kumquat.
  8. I was a huge fan of the first game, the second one was amazing, but I have no hope for the third. My bets are that when it comes out, it'll be so EA'd that it'll hardly be a Mass Effect game.
  9. Just wanted to bring up that there are some items I'm looking for, since I like collecting weapons. How much I'm willing to trade for each varies, mostly since I'm out of (and never was in the loop on) the whole "values" stuff, since I think spending more time trading than playing the game itself is silly. Pomson 6000, Eureka Effect, Third Degree, Phlogistinator, Manmelter, Wrap Assassin, Holiday Punch.
  10. Everypony will be surprised as Scootaloo gets hers for measuring the length of blades of grass, Apple Bloom gets hers for replacing roof shingles, and Sweetie Belle gets hers for proctology. In all seriousness, I can't see one of them getting their cutie marks independently. They've built them up as a group too much to do that. If they ever do get them, it'll probably be during a series intro or closing episode, or the final episode. It'll be a important episode.
  11. Ah. Well, the previous points I made in this thread are still valid, though. Anyway, I will admit that the site was part of my first exposure to bronies. Which may or may not be a good thing. It would be nice to see a "condensed pony images" site run by, y'know, actual bronies though.
  12. I'd be one of the ninja janitors. What? Ponyville is so bright and shiny most of the time, there have to be ninja janitors who keep the place clean. Or more seriously, probably a construction worker. Those guys need more screen time, seriously. Somepony has to build the buldings, and it's one of the more "realistic" jobs in the series.
  13. Or hate on the operators of the site for not inspecting content and doing a background check on it to make sure the creator is properly credited. If I remember correctly, you can copy/paste an image in Google image search to find similar images, so there's really no reason not to other than laziness.
  14. Was just looking at your DeviantArt stuff, and I've got to say it looks amazing. It's nice to see someone with such talent join the forums. And no, I'm not just saying that to sound all mushy. With that out of the way, welcome to the forums Seraph. Have a great time here.
  15. I already explained the evils of the "Cheezburger network" but I'll add these for good measure. Profit. The "Cheezburger network" frequently steals content from operators of small-time sites, and uploads it to their own sites uncredited. This brings up the matter of ad revenue. Since the "Cheezburger network" doesn't like to the original site the image or video came from, the little guy gets no money. Now, who needs the ad revenue more, the little guy, or crappy posers? Personality. Which is better, a site designed and operated by a person with a sense of humor who actually has interest in the material they are working with, or crappy kitsch thought up by a "PR & Marketing Communications Specialist"? Intelligence. Which do you prefer, a site where quality is a consideration on content being displayed, or a site where they shovel our any crap as fast as they can because to them, more content = more money? Where there's actually thought into the content you see, or where every post is either "Nope. Chuck Testa" or "...but then I took an arrow in the knee"?
  16. My Little Pony: Fly Hard. Twelve Diamond Dogs. One pony. The odds are against Rainbow Dash... That's just the way she likes it. Rainbow Dash goes to visit Twilight Sparkle at a Hearth's Warming Day party at the Nakaponi plaza, when the Diamond Dogs arive and take everypony hostage, claiming it's to teach the Princess Celestia a lesson for her greed. Rainbow Dash must take down the Diamond Dogs one by one, and learn about their true motive: To steal the vault of gems hidden beneath the Nakaponi building.
  17. Ugh, I agree with you. But your problem is with the entire "cheezburger network" itself. Eric Nagakawa, the creator, is just a thief who stole memes like Caturday, slapped his name on them and got rich. It's the Wal*Mart of internet humor sites: Taking out the little guy (small-time artists, etc.), making the mass-produced garbage the norm ("meme creator" "Rage face generator") and leaving behind a trail of pollution ("Chuck Testa", which is not a "meme" but a paid advertisement forced virally). The Cheezburger notices a trend or a popular thing, and creates it's own crappified version of a site for it, trying to brute-force the little guy out. Examples are them creating that "Bob's house of video games" site, and stealing content from Halolz and using their banner to cover the Halolz banner, and their "My Little Brony" site, commonly seen taking art from the community, and commonly having their banner conveniently cover a signature. There's a reason their banner covers part of the image instead of it being added to the bottom of the image as extra space: To potentially cover original creator info, and to make it so the image looks "off" if you crop it off.
  18. Happy birthday to me! :D

  19. Not a pony, but Spike and Tyranitar. Or, since we're doing ponies, Applejack and Hitmonlee. Do I need to explain it?
  20. I doubt there are guns in MLP. The reason they use phrases such as "Like a tank" and "fast as a bullet" is because they're recognizable to the viewer. Following the logic that said phrases prove the existence of guns and tanks, then what about in the series premiere 2-parter, where Pinkie Pie "speaks to the viewer" before the screen wipe at the end? How about in "Over a Barrel" when Pinkie Pie actually prevents the screen wipe from closing on her, directly interacting with it? Does that prove that, after certain events, a black shroud covers the entire world? Apologies for being way too serious. It's what I do best.
  21. If your computer can handle it, download it and play with is. @Blue: Funny image is funny.
  22. I've put thought in it, and I don't think raiding a gun shop would be a good idea. Why? Because every single other person will be trying the same thing. You'll end up shot. Your best bet would be to, before said zombie apocalypse, befriend a conspiracy theorist gun nut with a bomb shelter full of food, guns and ammo, or become one yourself. Then, just hide in said bomb shelter. If the zombies aren't gone by the time you run out of food, you have enough ammo left to go out in a blaze of glory, filling zombies with lead before eventually swallowing a bullet yourself so you don't have to experience being eaten alive. Either that, or get ahold of some kind of boat, and just sail out into the ocean. Since zombies are decomposing, if you sailed out far enough, the salt water would break them down before they could get to you, if they even bothered swimming out that far (if they even could). However, a zombie apocalypse could end, if you think about it. All it would take are some good frosts and some hot sun. Since zombies are decomposing, their decomposition would be accelerated by frost, aka freezerburn. The sun would dry out their decomposing flesh, and they would collapse. Even rain would increase their rotting. We're talking about corpses here. Walking corpses, but still corpses. You also have to account for wildlife. I mean, people have a hard time taking out, say, wolves, without a gun or knife. Zombies can't use weapons (most at least, there are the occasional weird movie zombies that can use guns) and are slower and dumber than a person. Easy fodder for animals. That is assuming, however, that the virus doesn't effect animals, since really, a virus that zombifies a human would be very specific in how it works, and would probably only be compatible with similar animals, like pigs. Zombie pigs. Not that intimidating. Hahaha oh wow, that ended up a lot longer than it intended to.
  23. Good, your hands are free. Now pick up a poop shovel and a welding torch.
  24. Meh, you've got a point. Besides, I wasn't being 100% serious about the whole burn-all-the-previous-gens anwyay. I'll narrow down my generation-destroying spree to 3.5 then. :3
  25. Well, the menu doesn't even effect gameplay. And that's the thing. The glitch happens when I am no longer on the server, so it seems even more pointless. Anyway, hoping tonight we all (or at least some of us) can get together for moar tf2.
