when's the board title changing to I Love Casual Games then?

tochter tochter, please (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 20 February 2013 17:46 (eleven years ago) link

xcom + spelunky are the least casual gaming experiences i can imagine!

Mordy, Wednesday, 20 February 2013 17:47 (eleven years ago) link

this is a super gamey top 10!

Mordy, Wednesday, 20 February 2013 17:47 (eleven years ago) link

better than than I Love The Impending Dinosaur-Like Meteoric Destruction That Will Be Console Games

Bob-omb The Videogame Industry! (Will M.), Wednesday, 20 February 2013 17:47 (eleven years ago) link

Ha, it's true. I just wasn't around to make the obligatory "TOO LOW" posting when it came up, felt the need to express some sorrow that it wasn't recognised as the rightful number one.

emil.y, Wednesday, 20 February 2013 17:47 (eleven years ago) link

absolutely nothing casual abt frog fractions either, highest ranked "casual" game probably punch quest at 11 or 10000000000 at 14
xp

Bob-omb The Videogame Industry! (Will M.), Wednesday, 20 February 2013 17:48 (eleven years ago) link

i played Spelunky and it felt like a pointlessly nerded out version of Boulderdash or something, i just don't feel the magic. still playable in short attention-span bursts tho.

tochter tochter, please (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 20 February 2013 17:49 (eleven years ago) link

i'm not even moaning as such, i don't have much interest in what consoles are offering at the moment. more an observation that a lot of people who i assume have been gaming since they were kids obviously feel the same way.

tochter tochter, please (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 20 February 2013 17:50 (eleven years ago) link

spelunky = platform nethack

Mordy, Wednesday, 20 February 2013 17:52 (eleven years ago) link

nethack feels a hundred times more surprising/absorbing

maybe i haven't spelunked enough but that's the game's fault imo

tochter tochter, please (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 20 February 2013 17:53 (eleven years ago) link

nice poll everybody! have played hardly any of this. and probably won't!

goole, Wednesday, 20 February 2013 17:54 (eleven years ago) link

tbf forks the reason epic mickey 2 is missing is because it appears to be unplayable complete horeshit

O_o-O_O-o_O (jjjusten), Wednesday, 20 February 2013 17:56 (eleven years ago) link

yeah i've played 5 games off this list and probly wd've voted for 2 of them. and they both involve football surprise surprise.

tochter tochter, please (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 20 February 2013 17:56 (eleven years ago) link

i think i might scratch the C+P itch by reading through the previous lists

O_o-O_O-o_O (jjjusten), Wednesday, 20 February 2013 17:57 (eleven years ago) link

first one is 2007 iirc?

O_o-O_O-o_O (jjjusten), Wednesday, 20 February 2013 17:57 (eleven years ago) link

Thanks forks and z s! Excellent job, and those gifs really take it to the next level.

goole, Wednesday, 20 February 2013 18:01 (eleven years ago) link

also Forza: Horizon which wasn't great but was waaay better than AC3, so worth a tie for #85 or w/e the f

goole, Wednesday, 20 February 2013 18:05 (eleven years ago) link

ok i guess i should try frog factions, i don't even remember hearing about it (or at least absorbing those two words together as a unit) until this thread.

Mordy, Wednesday, 20 February 2013 18:12 (eleven years ago) link

question i've always meant to ask, does "rougelike" have some in-jokey meaning or are there just a lot of motherfuckers who can't spell?

tochter tochter, please (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 20 February 2013 18:14 (eleven years ago) link

i assume there are just a lot of motherfuckers who can't spell

EZ Snappin, Wednesday, 20 February 2013 18:24 (eleven years ago) link

oh oh! You know what game I would have voted for if I'd played it before yesterday? LETTERPRESS

This beat is TWEENCHRONIC (DJP), Wednesday, 20 February 2013 18:25 (eleven years ago) link

also the reason WoW didn't show up this year is because I finally stopped playing it

This beat is TWEENCHRONIC (DJP), Wednesday, 20 February 2013 18:26 (eleven years ago) link

frog fractions requires patience and faith if you're gonna play. also don't be scared to check for a gamefaq if you're stuck; forward progress is the game's payoff

Even by Zales standards, that's sad. (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 20 February 2013 18:26 (eleven years ago) link

forks what is the deal w/ that howtonotsuckatgamedesign blogger?

Mordy, Wednesday, 20 February 2013 18:26 (eleven years ago) link

letterpress kinda sucks imo, the strategy involved is a lot simpler than it originally appears

congratulations (n/a), Wednesday, 20 February 2013 18:29 (eleven years ago) link

xp he makes some interesting points and raises some worthwhile arguments?

Even by Zales standards, that's sad. (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 20 February 2013 18:30 (eleven years ago) link

I freely admit that much of the joy I received from Letterpress yesterday was repeatedly pwning jjj while he failed to pay attention to his wife

also from winning a game by playing the word ENZYME and the ensuing rage that caused

This beat is TWEENCHRONIC (DJP), Wednesday, 20 February 2013 18:33 (eleven years ago) link

games i played after seeing the poll results (while makings gifs), but after i already voted:

XCOM
Need for Speed: Most Wanted
FTL

I would have given XCOM and FTL a bunch of points, enough to push XCOM to #1 and FTL into the top ten.

Borderlands 2 - 15
Fez - 15

Black Knight Sword - 10
Far Cry 3 - 10
Frog Fractions - 10
Max Payne 3 - 10
QatQi - 5

queeple qua queeple (Jordan), Wednesday, 20 February 2013 18:41 (eleven years ago) link

make yourself play it for longer than 10 minutes. i wasn't the biggest fan after 2 minutes but like most roguelikes, it gets really addicting quickly.

Z S, Wednesday, 20 February 2013 18:42 (eleven years ago) link

sorry, roguelikes rougelikes

Z S, Wednesday, 20 February 2013 18:42 (eleven years ago) link

next year, instead of "biggest disappointment" can we have a -10 vote slot that can only be used if accompanied by an angry rant? then we could have amusing entries with negative point values
