| Games People Play Games People Play is where to discuss personal computer, video game console, and arcade hardware and software - be it RPG, Sim, Strategy, Fighting, Action/Platform, or any other category. Although discussion of modern platforms/software will most likely dominate, discussion of classic videogame/computer hardware and software is always enjoyable, and certainly welcome - ESPECIALLY since there are public domain/shareware emulators of nearly every older computer/console available these days. Here's a taste of what awaits you: Nintendo-vs-Sega-vs-Sony, Console-vs-PC-vs-Mac, Hardware spec sheets/information, Industry news and discussion, Software reviews, IRC conference announcements/Reports, Emulators, Emulators, Emulators! ... and much, much more! |

I cried when the pig died to save the starving people.

Re: Emotional Attachment to video game characters
when i was 7, i felt pretty sad about the ending of Crystalis. Recently some of the philosophical content of Chrono Cross has made me dangerously introspective. Aren't I a wuss?

Re: Emotional Attachment to video game characters
CC didn't make me sad at all really..
If you want a depressing sad kinda game, play Valkyrie profile. You have to watch all the characters die.

Re: Emotional Attachment to video game characters
It is so easy to get attached to a character in an RPG, especially YOUR character, you play for hours and hours, you ARE the character. It's different, i neverget attached to anything in any other type of game. Except maybe my Maclaren F1 in NFS.

Re: Emotional Attachment to video game characters
there was also a guy in double dragon, called burnov. he was REALLY fat. and REALLY slow. every one made fun of him. he was referred to as the "bloody meat bomb". it still maked me cry with laughter....  but as far as an emotional attachment, i would have to say it would be chun-li. i have to change my pants now.

Re: Emotional Attachment to video game characters
Quest for Glory 2. Shema makes you a meal of knockwurst and sauerkraut so you won't be homesick. That kind gesture almost moved me to tears. Oh, and when Rakeesh says his leg hurt I felt really sorry for him. Of course, I was mixing scotch and sambucca at the time.
And in QFG4 I really liked the BurgoMeister. I even narrated his dialogue in a phony russian accent. He was cool.

Re: Emotional Attachment to video game characters
I like in Captain America and The Avengers Arcade how when you take lethal damage your man falls to his knees and it cries AMERIC ASTILL NEEDS YOUR HELP!
Heh I made more than one continue because of that. Cap rocks.

Re: Emotional Attachment to video game characters
I had a friend piss his pants when we were playing double dragon on the sega master system and I won and got the girl at the end.
but that was when he was like 6. He moved though, he never did like that game after that. I never did stop making fun of him.
