I love GOG, I only bought 3 games from them, but it was 3 games I always wanted to play and couldn’t find until I bought it from them.
I just got my first personally-own laptop for my birthday this year and since it is my first entrance into being a PC gamer, I wanted to go find some of the old games I always wanted to. From GOG, I grabbed Painkiller: Black, Duke Nukem 3D and Postal 2 (whatever the name of the full expansions is).
BTW– For reviewing mods, how come you guys haven’t played or reviewed Super Mario Bros. Crossover. Possibly the best mod of a game ever. It’s a Super Mario Bros 1 Mod where the creator added in video game characters from OTHER games that still perform and play EXACTLY like they do in their own games. So you have Megaman who still shoots, slides, can charge up his Buster, and gains powers from items, Samus can still shoot, roll into the ball and drop bombs, and Mad Dog Bill is THE CHEAPEST ONE IN THE GAME. If you want a challenge, play the whole game as Simon Belmont… complete with the “old-style” Castlevania jumping (also known as Leaping of Faith, since you had to know you wanted to jump because there was no turning back when you did).

It’s made by Exploding Rabbit Games, and he has footage and trailers on his Youtube account (ExplodingRabbitGames):

I so love this ‘cast…one of those I never miss…between this and filmsack my happy meter is set to full during the week
for the old school section – I don’t know if you guys have ever heard of this dude, but search for Classic Game Room on YouTube – the reviewer Mark on there – they do not get much more brilliant than him – just saying if you want ideas for games, he can give em to ya

Oy, GOG is Good Old Games. o_0
I have The Longest Journey, Beyond Good and Evil, Painkiller Black, Psychonauts, and Raptor. Great stuff.

The guy was mad about the SNK thing because Brian started using the super-racist stereotypical Asian voice that you guys always do. I think getting bent out of shape over someone talking a certain way is pretty dumb so I don’t care either way, but there it is.
And BTW, while they may not have an option to buy 1200 points on XBL, they DO have options to buy 400 points and 800 points. And I’m pretty sure that 400 plus 800 equals 1200.

Pingback: Final Score talks Old Republic!
@dennis The feed is on there. I’m trying to get it to look better. But if you go to podcasts and search for “final score” it’s the first return but had no icon next to it.
Hopefully we can figure it out.
