    I've never played Shadow of the Colossus because it emulates bad hehe. Bluepoint remake probably emulates better but nah.
    Or Alien Soldier because I have no idea what the frick that is.

    Rest I've beaten. Where's my nerd pussy and trophies for this monumental achievement of playing like 7 videogames. Yeah I can beat DMC3 on Normal and only died to Cerberus like 80 fricking times, eat that.
    Also who uses W101 for nerd cred, nobody cares about it, Viewtiful Joe is where the dickwaving commences.

    I don't think people pretends to be fan of DMC, Ikaruga, Panzer Dragoon or Alien Soldier because those are enjoyable and easy to pick up and play. Planescape Torment on the other hand, it seems like a really elitist game aimed at an handful of people, i bet many tried to play it and dropped it very fast because it looks like a snoozefest.

      I started slamming through dialogue out of boredom, which probably counts as not beating it, but I did beat it.

    When the frick did alien soldier get added to this list?
    I’ve literally only ever heard this game be talked about twice outside of me playing it, once by an anon years ago who recommended it (which is why I played it) and a couple weeks ago from a youtuber who’s on Ganker and made a top 10 Genesis games list. Pariah something or another, not here to advertise him but this is genuinely a neat gem of a game that only like 100 people in the world ever played.

    i remember in high school there was a whole clique of autists who argued over which of them were true gamers based on if they actually played games jontron reviewed. none of them even owned a retro console and theres no way they were emulating fricking monster party or shit like that before they saw videos on it. one of them would recite patton oswalt bits as if they were his in the courtyard when everyone was showing up in the morning. im not sure what happened to them because i was older but as i was leaving school one of them somehow got a 10/10 gf and it imploded their friend group, and i know it didnt last long bc she became an OF prostitute

            Well said free-thinker. But between NG1-3, DMC 1-5, Bayo 1-3 and Godhand, that's about 20+ playthroughs for clears on different difficulties, secret missions (which each of those games have), and the Bloody Palace equivalence = not enough for me to give a frick for 'based' cred from a literal-who homosexual.

            I'll play all those games yearly at best, I don't fixate on a specific series in a specific genre like most mentally ill hispanics do in action-game threads.

            A normal playthrough is enough in 95% of games to actually grasp what it is beyond the surface level though
            Additional difficulties or modes are marginal knowledge gains

      Honestly if not for the cool Falco like main character, I'd choose Gunstar Heroes. But that game seems better with a friend. Also I'm surprised OP didn't go for a Contra or Cuphead, those are fellated as masterpieces which I agree with.

        Contra is a famous game that a lot of NES/SNES kids played but it can still fall in posercore for the same reason as DOOMs since people think liking Contra makes you look cool because is so badass

    The amount of women game devs who are literally like this anon. I learned to stop asking questions about 'their playthrough' to avoid the uncomfortable admission that they just watched the game a couple times on twitch.

    It's not even a big deal, it's just that they clearly feel afraid I'll judge them and then I'm making excuses for THEIR OWN secondaryism. Trust me bros, just drop a silly line in the office and make small talk, avoid talking about shit you actually care about.

    I have no idea what you mean by 'recent trend'. You didn't give any examples.

    But being a poser in the 1990s was because people were poor and had limited gaming options, so they would feign knowledge about shit they never played or read to impress people, since it implies they have the money to own a gaming PC capable of playing Quake when the only thing they own is a cheap-ass Sony Playstation with a copy of Final Fantasy 7.
