Trust me though, the best games on Xbox and Gamecube are usually the ones that don't get as much attention.

I totally agree...like Shenmue 1 and 2...you guys ever played that? That left me breathless.

I don't know much about consoles nowdays... but I've been checking some newest games in local markets and I've seen more interesting looking games for PS2. Anyways, games and consoles are so overpriced that I might buy PS2 or Xbox or something after few years if they are cheaper then.

Bah, give me NES or SNES anyday! Those two are good enough for me!

PS. I found this thread amusing.

I have been waiting for so long for a xbox or ps2, i'll buy it in like 2 years. but yeah nes or snes are the best...its just the graphics of some games on the xbox and ps2 that would leave me drooling for it...i could always use the pc, tho'

So i say, all in all. Build a decent pc, download some emulators. And play all the games.

I've never heard of a XBOX emulator...if you have, just point the wayÃ, 

Hyping for me is a very negative word.

Ok...you hit the hammer on the nail...w/e...I think that if a person hypes about their game 5 months before it is ready to come out and everyone loves the screenies and "can't wait" and then the programmer's computer crashes or he decides not to do the game, everyone might think that he won't complete a game or that he doesn't want to. There would be to much pressure and you would feel rushed to distribute the game to the people. However if the programmer announced their game a few days before they were sure they were done...they would have done a good, non-rushed job. So yes, hyping is negative to me also, but then again...I don't want to lose this forum...you know?   

Well, I think that if you're going to be offering criticism there, try your best to have it be constructive, and it ought to be fine. Just as long as you relate what you don't like, maybe why you don't like it and a suggestion that you feel would be an improvement, I'd guess that any mature poster could accept that.

The problem is that a lot of the new developers are of the younger teenage demographic.Ã,  And these younger members might think it's meant as an insult rather than constructive.Ã,  I think we should still offer it though (and calm any fires it might start) and, as you mentioned, just back up what is said with reasons.

I agree with having the criticism constructive because if you don't hear helpful opinions, you may feel that no one will care if you spend all this time into this game.

There's a point to it other than getting comments.

Generating hype.

It's up to the reader of the threads if they want to post comments or not, and I'd personally like it if people were honest when commenting on the games.

Oh, how very true.

I have this problem with the In Production thread. It seems like, it's kinda forbidden to give constructive criticism about games. I mean, like I want to say that a game sucks... but instead of that, I'll say "good effort, good luck one, keep up the good work", or something similiar.

So what I mean is, that it feels like there is some kind of mood like "Don't get to harsh on a game...because the creator is doing so much his/her best".

I have had this on my mind forever, minimi...thank you. I have not seen a comment on the GiP forum stating "this game looks bad, man, you should stop!" That must mean that we are all---kind magical folk only out to give a hand to the needy. If I am doing a game and don't know if I want to continue, I don't want to hear the same thing over and over...maybe I want to hear that I can quit the project and be free! Work on another game!
I'm gonna get pounded for this.Ã,  Ã, 

Black Knight,
I'm new here too, and I don't know if this will work or not but have you copied the image and edited it in paint? You can color there too? I haven't used photoshop 7 yet, so I don't know what features it has.

Glad to hear that the betas coming out...sign me up for testing! (As said before)

thats the funniest thing i've seen today, haddas...thank you

Great! As said with my icons, I can also proofread. Would love to help you out there also.

I think that this is a great idea Rich! Oh and Welcome Back! 

Okay...first things first...victor...sweet screen...downloading game now...and I wouldn't consider you a n00b...not with all the posts you make. That was pretty quick to get a game out with graphics that clean andÃ,  :o. Looking for more games from you.

And SierraFreak...who are you referring to for the avatar question? If it is

Mephistophilis-Rockstar Games logo-GTA 3, Vice City, Manhunt, ring any bells?
Klaus-I believe thats Max Payne layered on a kickass background.
Czar-Alf of course!

P.S.-good idea with the destruction theme.

   Clueless, most of my music is mp3...i have alot of MIDIs and a few OGGs. Just tell me what you need!

Nightquest-I would love to betatest this game...sounds cool...if you need a resume for betatesting...i'm not known here. I did beta Kings Quest III, tho'. I have played video (adventure) games my whole life and can't wait to hear from you!------However...I will be away for the weekend... :...so I can only do test monday.

 :DÃ,  "how tall are you private?"Ã,  "Sir, five-foot-nine, sir."Ã,  Ã, "Five-foot-nine, I didn't know they stacked shit that high!"Ã,  Ã, 

Rich, that really sucks...i was really looking forward to it. I just hope that this doesn't relieve you of your confidence to make adventure games for us...because you rock! I hope to hear from you on what you do next!Ã,  Ã, 

Yours truly,
