Yeah, because that's exactly what I meant.

One of my fav. games, Kyrandia.

*Turo602* · 06-11-2010, 10:44 PM

Who can forget about GTA!

*Koi* · 06-11-2010, 10:45 PM

Diablo 2

Or some editional pylons?

While I'm at it,

*The Stryker* · 06-11-2010, 11:17 PM

Man. I'll never forget the awesome character that is Pylon from Starcraft.

AGGHHH

*Koi* · 06-11-2010, 11:31 PM

I know there was the vespene gas, but for some reason my brain remembers the blue crystals as pylons.

I am sorry I aggravated you, I haven't played the game in a while. My apologies.

Peanut · 06-12-2010, 08:51 AM

The blue crystals are called minerals. Pylons are what Protoss use to enable them to build more units and allow them to build buildings within their radius.

And the reason he's hatin' is because that's not a "face" and it certainly isn't one of the "many faces of videogames". This thread basically just became "Google a videogame and post a screenshot". It's nothing to do with your knowledge of StarCraft. He's not Korean!

*XERO* · 06-12-2010, 09:51 AM

Moving on...

Oh yeah!

I thought that was what you were suppose to do, well OK. I get it now.

Like this?

Never forget.

Peanut · 06-12-2010, 09:39 PM

I wonder if you watched AVGN. No...that can't be it.

*Cipher* · 06-12-2010, 09:43 PM

Did he do something on it? I honestly haven't watched his videos in years, and definitely haven't seen all of them.

I think I first heard of it years and years ago in one of Seanbaby's EGM columns, back when that was still a thing and I actually subscribed to game magazines. Alternatively, I may have made that up and it might have been even earlier than that. Definitely some kind of mag though.

Oh, and here's Pyramid Head or something. Whee? Then again, I suppose he doesn't really have a face.

I'm sure Custer was just too memetic either way, and Silent Hill probably isn't quite obscure or retro enough for me to be totally cool in a video game pictures thread though, so here's the first boss in R-Type. I always enjoy beating him so I can actually die in level two every once in a while.

Peanut · 06-12-2010, 09:52 PM

Oh, man. When SB was still a dude relevant to games? Damn. That was a long time ago.

I thought he'd dropped the gig at least pre-AVGN fixation, hadn't he? Then again, I could just be way f*cking off because I haven't followed the gaming scene in around the last four years.

Peanut · 06-12-2010, 10:01 PM

I mean, he's certainly been around the last couple of years. Most notably as a member of the Broken Pix3ls feature 1up had before they got neutered. He was still really funny in that, making fun of old games, and AVGN was around while that was being made, but he was pretty much out of the limelight before JR moved in and took over the "these games are awful, let me tell you about it" market.

I don't think he does anything in games anymore, except that he is (maybe was at this point) dating one of those pro-gamer chicks that Ubisoft sponsors now.
