ITT: Little things you noticed in games.
>all the plants in Mirror's Edge are white
Bump for interest.
>>263705789
That's fucking stupid.
When the hooker shows up in Hotline Miami, the overworld slowly becomes more and more cleaned up between levels, the beds even being brought closer togetherbefore she dies
>>263707734
Pretty obvious if you're not speedrunning. You can actually interact with the tv and newspaper there sometimes to, it'll tell you about your crimes and sometimes Biker.
Guys, I'm probably the only one who didn't know this butthere's a second ending to hotline miami
The fridge in No More Heroes is utterly useless
>>263707928
I'll be honest, it took me a second playthrough to notice the romantic subplot, and it was another playthrough to find all of the newspaper clippings.
>>263705789
I was always confused as to if it was just to further illustrate the game world or if it was just laziness.
>>263708384Have you found the all the letters and formed the password yet?
>>263708567that might have been a spoiler dood
>>263708385
Could be both
>>263708567
yeah, andthe second ending is kinda shit.
In Twilight Princess, projectiles are deflected by your shield even if you aren't holding it up, or holding it at all really. Being out of battle stance and having an arrow deflected by your shield on your back is a true TECHNOLOGY moment.
>>263708842

>>263708767
Weapons in Max Payne 3 eject a round when you reload
>>263708842
And then you can pick up the arrow and add it to your quiver. Pretty neat.
>>263708842
You can also deflect arrows with your sword, IIRC.
>>263705789
reminds me of infrared photography
>>263708260
This.
>>263708385
>>263708741
It was deliberately done to display the monotone, clean and perfect image that the city displayed. All life, including the plants, were shades of white and grey.
>>263705789
Did Mirror's edge 2 launch yet or what happened to it?
>>263708385
...seriously?
it's for looking stylized/cool, like the rest of the game. holy crap /v/

bump for interest.
>>263706793
they aren't real plants dude
>>263709101
This bothers me when the magazine and chamber are empty. It is a common technique to always charge the weapon when reloading even if the shooter is confident there is already a round chambered. It's fugly in Max Payne 3
>Look up when it rains
>Droplets land on your screen
>>263711358
Really?
Nice
In Red Orchestra 2, your helmet does actually give you protection and can save your life from ricochets or bullets penetrating objects to the point where the velocity is low enough.
In this very very minor way, Germans > Russians
>>263711634
Sup Metroid Prime.
>>263711605
You can't charge real guns though this isn't Mega Man dumbass.
>Grand Theft Auto
>You can actually commit grand theft auto
>>263711668
But, mind you, you aren't actually cocking the hammer back to make it singe action-ready.
If you carefully squeeze R2/Rtrigger, you can see the hammer pull back
>>263711759
There's nothing as satisfying as hearing the distant PANG when a round punches through your opponent's helmet.
>>263705789
>GTA 2
>Steal a taxi
>Pedestrian calls for a taxi

>Dollars start slowly ticking up
Blew my fucking mind as a kid, not even a minigame or anything, game just let you impersonate a taxi driver
>>263712476
And just look at GTA now.
No Taxi, no vigilante, no (true) rampage
>>263711564
Says who?
>>263712847
It's kind of implied by them being white. Plus this is a futuristic distopia where everything is controlled and artificial.
In gta4, when sitting in a car if you hold the exit button a little longer you'll turn off the engine.
>>263711358
Motherfuckers just got more respect from me. But just a tiny bit.
If you manage to defeat Bass in Megaman Battle Network 3 after defeating Flameman, there's a unique scene that will play.
>>263706793
There are plenty of White plants in real life.

>>263712741
Honestly the first two GTAs remain a couple of my favorite games of all time, even more than Vice City and San Andreas. It was just that feeling of freedom, that you could do anything, no bullshit story. Also helps that there was absolutely nothing like it at the time
>>263713434
>In Metal Gear Solid 3, you're playing as Big Boss, not Solid Snake
>>263708767
That's why it's not the real ending.
Its just some background info that never came to light in the canon story.
In GTA IV
>go to a parking lot with a security guard
>get him to start shooting at you
>Call 911 and get the cops there
>The cops will start shooting the security guard and he will die in a blaze of glory.
>mfw
It's so god damned beautiful every time I just sit back and watch.
>>263714740
I put hundreds of hours into IV and did not know this.
Fucking glorious, time to replay, muh nig.
Now most of you, especially the Smash fanatics, will know this but today while playing Brawl I found out that Peach can do her hovering move from SMB2. Don't bully pls.
>>263714740
>GTA4
>If your car won't start, call 911 and it will work again
>>263705789
Everything seen is through the runners eyes, she's been trained to looks for useful objects when moving and so some pipes and similar things done appear red until you look at them for a few seconds.
Having green trees, multicoloured flooring or wall and the "dirty" look of the city mentally blocked out makes it easier to focus.
Alpha Protocol is full of those:
>kill a hostile character
>her boss gets pissed, but you can calm him down by saying that you have a policy of killing people who attack you for no reason
>finish other mission wihouth any kill
>get a mail from him, full of bitching about you being a hypocrite
>>263714915
while you are at it, hit some cops with dildos from the porn shop.

Every character in Danball Senki has a different footstep sound if you put them in the lead slot. It's most noticible with Gouda because of his geta but Ban, Ami and Kazuya also all have different SFX.
i didnt know about gliding in brawl till sakurai said it was being removed from sm4sh
In Custom Robo there's a short scene where you leave the enemy base with 6 people behind you.
If you look closely you'll notice that everyone has a unique run animation, even the gun who never runs outside of this sequence.
>>263715556
>playing with highlight on
You truly are the bane of our time
>>263719442
Why wouldn't you? Everything else is pure white shit. The runner vision makes the game look a LOT prettier.
>>263719442
>Not leaving it on for the art style element of it.
The only time it's actually dumb is in the QTE with Big McLargeHuge and his blinking orange pipe.
But that was literally the worst part of the game for a number of reasons beyond that.
>>263712741
there's taxi missions in gtav. i didn't even realize it until just recently honestly. i think it's mostly because who the fuck drives a taxi in single player in that game?
>>263719442
Sorry I was too busy enjoying the game and its aesthetics
Dishonored has three different endings.
Deus Ex HRonly has one.
>>263719442for you
>>263712476
After playing Crazy Taxi for the first time in an arcade, I came home and did this, making sure to hit Insane Stunt ramps, and singing 'Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya!' to myself a lot.
>>263721725
Aren't there like six?
I personally never finished the game, but I'm sure I saw more than one type of ending listed in my recommended videos on youtube
>>263722156
DE:HR ends on a personal choice that has no impact on the rest of the storyline. It's about picking your side, not just watching different outcomes.
>>263722156
It has six power point presentations
>>263714740
>GTA IV
>Piss off a few gang members
>Call the cops
>They start a huge firefight
>CallDwayne for his backup
>Watch the huge firefight
>Walk away unharmed
>>263709404
That's anti-technology.
>>263713000
I thought they were white just because they didn't wanna bother doing the texture work, and made the implied excuse that they did that on purpose for the sake of "style".
>>263724012
what? why?
>>263715743
alpha protocols dialogue system and all that shit was fantastic
>>263724012
Are you joking?
>>263724212
>>263724284
The arrows would be no good after hitting your shield
>>263724340
Why not? Do you think they would be blunt or shattered? Because that definitely wouldn't be the case

>>263705789
pretty sure not all of them were white, but yeah, the world of mirrors edge was very aesthetically appealing, as well as complimenting the design of the rest of the game.
The witcher series has a lot of great little details
>in 1 Jacques de Aldersberg changes his dialogue at the end of the game, depending on the advice you give toAlvinthroughout the game.
>in 2 Tailles has a large facial scar from his duel with the witcher from the short stories. awesome part of the story btw.
there were a lot more, but those stand out in my memory quite a bit when I noticed them.
also pic related.
>>263710031
I would play a video game based on this photograph. You play as a black horse running through a country side. And that's about all I came up with.
Seriously though, are there any games where you play as a horse?
>>263711561
you know The Birds exists, right?
>>263723301
>>263723686
and? they're still different endings. other anon never said anything different.

>>263725347

>>263726008
Put it on the left
>>263726449
The black horses an overall atmosphere reminded me of SOTC.
You never play as Argo, but it's the closest I can think of.
>>263719420
Everything about Custom Robo is beautiful and fantastic (except having to beat single-player to unlock multiplayer, which is why it got shit reviews mostly). I wish more people got a chance to play this game
>>263719420
hey my friends and I were playing this last night and we realized the same thing
>>263726607
They're not really endings, no, the game ends long before that.
The goal of HR is to walk you through different opinions and ideas surrounding transhumanism, and ask you "what would you do?"
It's totally a 4th wall breaking experience, but some ignorant people would rather see this as "4 shit endings with buttons to press". They simply missed the point.
>>263723801
where do you find gang members in gta iv?
>>263726821
Not sure if this is a big thing or if its just me, but in the ballad of gay tony, if you go over to the gay night club (hercules I believe) and you shoot or something, the doorman will come after you and he will be invincible.

It's actually Agent 47, but I can understand why you were fooled, there's no way you could have recognized him with this eyepatch.
>>263711561
what game?
>>263707928
I didn't know about the TV. Is that a thing?
Should I bother buying UMVC3,or is everyone online already so good I'll never get a chance to improve?
>>263727278
I understand and agree with you for the most part, I also think that Deus Ex did the same but much better. not only in it's final execution but throughout the game they actually go pretty in depth into the philosophies and arguments that support each choice in a non-direct manner, letting the player decide which one they would agree with more down the line after hearing what each has to offer and mulling it over for a while.
but they're still endings and they're still different, even if it wasn't as dynamic and based on subtle player influence as dishonored.
>>263728352
>even if it wasn't as dynamic and based on subtle player influence as dishonored.
I didn't mean to compare the two.
>>263724246
>>263715743
Too bad the rest of the game has the quality of a turd.
>>263728275
Where are you even gonna buy it?
Are you gonna hope your local fucking gamestop has a copy?
Also i'm pretty sure the people online are too good
>>263727746
Well what I usually did was "activate" him then run around the corner to the police station so they see him attacking me. Then they would attempt to "apprehend" him, then I would call for even more copsand laugh as he slaughters them all.
Imagination friend.
In Snake Eater 3DS, even if you have the slider on, if you go into first person after BB loses his eye, the 3D affect won't work.
>>263721725
DXHR has 12.
I thought this was pretty coolIf you pause at any time in Max payne 3, you can actually hover the screen around Max by using one of the analog sticks. You can do this in mid air and even whilst firing. Using this mode allows you to see shells being ejected and even hammers pulling back.
>>263727953
Jazzpunk
In DXHR, the layer between Lower Hengsha and Upper Hengsha is named "Pangu".
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pangu
implying implications
The Flamelurker in Demon's Souls could possibly be the Legendary Big M
>Legendary Big M is so legendary because he would slay dragons with his BARE FISTS.
>The Flamelurker, on the other hand, is a large flaming demon monster that kills with ITS FIERY FISTS OF RAGE.
>The Flamelurker's arena is littered with dragon bones, the Hands of God (The supposed gauntlets of Big M) are found outside his arena, and the Dragon God arch demon is found immediately after his fight.
>Blacksmiths Ed and Boldwin each carry one of the Hands of God, and Ed can use the Flamelurker's soul to mend and infuse the souls of demons into weapons (As if someone were punching the fickle souls into the weapons).
>>263726624
I don't post anyways
>>263730015
The aesthetics in that game were so pretty, despite the bland color scheme.
>>263730158

There are 4 choices, and for every choice, there's a bad, neutral and good ending, based on your behaviour during the game (saving people, killing people, etc)
>>263705789

It felt good
In Left 4 Dead, if you have your survivor stare into a spotlight like pic related for a while and then look away, their vision will be a bit out of whack as their eyes adjust to the lack of light.
>>263730686
The bad, neutral and good variations are just one extra sentence.
>>263731941
That's something that's been in the source engine ever since Lost Coast.
>>263709101

>>263729369
If you close your right eye you will only see a black screen.

Same with Arma. Going from night vision to normal takes time to adjust. The longer in night vision the longer it takes to adjust
No modern game has working reflections, its all Quake 3 skyboxes
>>263732760Sometimes it helps.

Gang member roles were way too down-played in GTA IV, but they're still there and will start firing when shit gets real. The rastamen near the airport, the niggas at north Algonquin, and a small mafia presence at the north end of Alderney are the three I can remember off-hand.

Why can't we just have more working mirrors? I know it doesn't do anything for the gameplay, but it still adds a little magic to the game. It's just intriguing to see something in another world reflected, almost creating yet another world inside that world.
>>263734654
How could I forget this?
>get a burger at the diner
>hide behind a car
>fire a shot in a random direction
>shots ring all over the place
>the police get involved
Every time I played, I made sure to do this at least once.
>>263734843
Because it's easier to just make a broken mirror and pretend that broken shards of a mirror don't have a reflection.
>>263730523
stop givin' me wood!
>>263734843
you're fucking high
Whats that 1 game where the mirrors actually showed your viewpoint, so you would see in the mirror what you were looking at in third person. It would just be the same camera the player sees the character with.
>>263705789
even the outdoors ones?
>>263735143
I'll never understand why the attention to detail somehow feels less pronounced in V than in IV when there's actually more of it. Was it more highlighted in IV or something?

In Deadly Premonition, some mirrors reflect and some don't.

Watching all of this with the Wonderful 101 soundtrack in the background is oddly... fitting. For some reason
