Low Profile shmups doesn't exactly sound like great stuff heh. Translate that one right?
Well, those games are in my wishlist 'cause I love shmups in almost every form, but they're indeed low-profile, just look at 'em XDD
Actually I've never asked, do you speak english Dante?
Your pretty quick on the translation factor.
EDIT:
Russian and English i meant
Yeap, learned it in school and after this it's by my side almost all the time 'cause I'm reading comics, reading wikies, listening to heavy bands, most of whom are singing in english, etc.
Russian is a norm in my family from the beginning even though we're living in Ukraine and not in Russia)
Also it's only on very rare occasions when I'm using google translate to write something and never to read (for me it's more challenging to find the right word in foreign language than to understand what the foreigner's saying).

Look at my list breaker, when i called it "Rainbow Cars" it wasn't far off.

Some ignorant 'pos-en' :ROFLMAO: told me that it didn't even count, probably knowing it would be that number...I'm sure at least 50+ of the games from my wishlist were either meh or 🤮 but they were still gifts, most that I asked for (I took stock of random key drops as well)...so that obviously didn't matter much to me.

If I claimed it, I almost always thought I would play it or at least wanted to try...so i feel ya. I actually do want to try that Tetris block driving game, wouldn't surprise me if it had awesome mechanics lol.

So that explains all the deep reading, here I thought you were a secret sponsor for Konami :LOL:

Understandable...I can read some languages I don't know sometimes if I do know enough words to understand the general idea of what they are saying.

I've read an entire paragraph in spanish before realizing I even did...translated it after and I at least got the concept right, although not word for word.

That was also when my spanish vocabulary was alot better from school myself...but it still surprised me to say the least heh.

All that aside, its impressive...I've never been good at any secondary language unless you count code :ROFLMAO:

Cheers (y)

Guys tell me please am I violating anything with such an exchange?
This is my first exchange. I read the rules, but didn't see anything there that contradicts my proposal.
In my opinion, it'd be better to post your offer in the Trades forum instead. (Although, yeah, there'll be some people who won't see it there, who would see it where you have posted it.)

Posting the offer where you did, runs the risk of someone failing to read or failing to understand the text you wrote. They may make offers, not realizing that they won't actually be getting RDR2 when you accept their offer. Keep in mind, some of the folks in IndieGala's trades section are less fluent in English than you are. If possible, try to confirm the offerer's understanding before accepting any offers.

I don't think you can edit the original text of a trade post, but I'd recommend posting a comment below it, asking anyone making an offer to post a reply to your comment confirming that they understand what you're actually offering. Then, only accept offers from those who do so.


By the way, does anyone know why all the trade profile pages have suddenly disappeared this week? That's a bit troublesome. E.g.:

Smurf's Razortron 2000 Review (gifted by pos)

Cool retro top-down racer game with 80's soundtrack. Very short and repetitive. Each run lasts somewhere between 30 seconds and 3 minutes. That's 3 minutes if you mange to reach level 10, which unlocks the final achievement in the game. Reaching level 10 is hard and you have to suffer much, only managed to do it 3 times in 20+ hours. First few levels are fun but then you really need to slow down to a crawl to reach level 10. Level 11 and 12 seem impossible for now. I'll keep trying. :D

Razortron 2000; what a cool, fun, addictive and sometimes frustrating game. I liked it a lot. Thanks pos. :love:

I'm sure I'll play it more during lunch brakes at school because it runs great on my school laptop. :)

Smurf got them all ;).png

Spoiler: Razortron 100% :)
You can't use [b]old and [I]talic in a spoiler box title i'm afraid, even with the menu.

Its correct for anywhere else, unless you use other tags like PLAIN to ignore it (like I did above)...although it did show up when I replied just by copying the spoiler box heh.

EDIT:

Btw thanks for the rundown, I was curious if I wanted to try that one eventually (y)

No worries. Just watch this video and see if you like it. :) Video YouTube
I watched the store page video, looked like an old school racer similar to Spy Hunter for NES, right up my alley...but nothing beats a 1st person perspective heh...pun intended.

Missed the edit...6 or 7 minutes? What is it a full walkthrough? lol.

I have the patience of a fenced in racehorse, I might get to 36-37 seconds unless the music is bumping lmao.

I'd buy it first :ROFLMAO:

not considered them part of the series
I thought Criterion Games was done with the series (seriously late response lol), they were the ones behind Hot Pursuit and alot of the other great titles.

Further reading proves me wrong, seems an NFS 2022 is planned (so far only for consoles) with some of Criterion old staff on board and some new teams...but they went with a cartoon-ish route if the leaks are right.

Idk how I feel about that in NFS...guess only time will tell since its all speculation and we're closer to 2023 at this point lol.

no-no!
if someone think that I was trying to say something by pointing out that those games are low-profile, it wasn't the case!
They were in my wishlist and, just so anybody know, there are more from the same series that I'm sincerely wait to accept as a gift/to win at ruffle/to take in giveaways)) I'm grateful for Pos' generosity and the fact that he had those keys in the first place!
So that explains all the deep reading, here I thought you were a secret sponsor for Konami :LOL:
really? a sponsor? after all what I've said about those imbeciles who're destroying one of their cult classic game series after another? hah!)

thanks, it's a music for my ears.
but if only I'd knew japanese as good as I know english at least... 🙏

nah, SNK sucks ass
HEY NOW.

ignore.png
*click*

as of lately,
Oh, just lately? Ehhh...

1. I've never been the biggest KOF fan, but I do think KOFXV doesn't look too bad, aside from the matchmaking issue. What else is there to complain about?

2. I have always been a huge SS fan, and the latest Samurai Shodown game looks pretty darn great to me. The only significant problems I see with it are:
  • It's not available on GOG yet.
  • It won't have rollback netcode until next year.
  • It still doesn't include Gen-an, Mizuki, Rera, Sieger, and Ocha-Maro. :(
  • I don't own it yet. :(
  • After being owned by Tencent 🤢, SNK is now owned by Mr. BoneSaw. 🤮

3. I have high hopes for the upcoming Mark of the Wolves sequel.


Do you know, is there an online multiplayer?
There isn't, according to its Steam store page's list of features.

Thanks for your opinion.
Drat, my small edit came a couple minutes too late.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

it looks not as good as all the other fighting games right now, and there're not too many fighting games right now out there. Hell, it looks worse than the last Killer Instinct. And I'm so harsh just 'cause SNK was one of my favorites, always near CAPCOM in terms of arcades((
2. I have always been a huge SS fan, and the latest Samurai Shodown game looks pretty darn great to me.
well, I was pretty hyped after the first trailer but after this...I dunno. At least in my mind the new SS looks better than the latest KOF.
After being owned by Tencent 🤢, SNK is now owned by Mr. BoneSaw. 🤮
explain please? about Mr.BoneSaw.
3. I have high hopes for the upcoming Mark of the Wolves sequel.
Oh, I haven't heard about this coming. Nice. Hope it will be at least as nice as SFV was in terms of look and gameplay. 🙏
There isn't, according to its Steam store page's list of features.
I was too lazy to check it out by myself... :sleep: Thanks for the information anyway))

I never said you were ungrateful, I just said the games didn't seem all that great lol. Maybe shmup doesn't translate well :ROFLMAO:

I also wasn't saying I was ungrateful just for the record, the game just has 8 reviews and looks pretty funky...its a total mystery.

One thats going to have to sadly wait, I have some backups to make as a top priority atm.
really? a sponsor? after all what I've said about those imbeciles who're destroying one of their cult classic game series after another? hah!)
First off 🤣🤣🤣 and which one?

But you mention Konami alot, or maybe it was just because you missed vic :p (ok this once I'm going to say something between blocks heh)...I honestly had to look up the name reference and that was a game from my youth.

I was just so young I couldn't possibly have remembered without backtracking, I have to figure you likely played it later.
thanks, it's a music for my ears.
but if only I'd knew japanese as good as I know english at least... 🙏
I feel ya, I didn't ask for those Learn Japanese games for actual gameplay (I haven't got to them to check if they are worth spit to actually learn either sadly) :LOL: I'm too old for that shit at this point I think I have to admit. Maybe 20 yrs ago heh.
I have it from Pos-man too, so congrats!!
I don't have that one.
I just finished downloading Retrowave :D
I do have this one (from pos lol), hopefully we get another review ;)
New motto click like vic :ROFLMAO: sorry.
latest Samurai Shodown game
Had no idea there was a 'latest'...but man thats a blast from the past. I'm thinking classic GB was my last copy of a Showdown game unless amazon gave me one with the other fighters 🤔

'cause they from the back days are one of my favorites and they from now are my greatest enemies.

well, yeah, but the main reason is 'cause I'm some kind of a wiki quote master gaming journalist and I've dug up a lot of information about some of my favorite game series just to write some huge posts at forums. I even have had my own community where I was doing cinema news once a week. It's my dream work))

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
that was offensive as hell. but still funny...

So...you haven't played Genesis/SNES one?
Also that "latest" game was released last year:

well round these parts it just shmup lmao.
cause they from the back days are one of my favorites and they from now are my greatest enemies.
They lost me with the new CastleVania and the in-between game story DLC that cost more than the game (although I admittedly own the game lol)

...sure its not :LOL:

Only aiming for a chuckle lol. No offense to either of you.

they lost me when Silent Hill Homecoming was released, than every time they released something from their cult series they're lost me again and again...( Castlevania, Contra, Silent Hill, Metal Gear, etc. Such dumbasses!(
I had but my I didn't own them...so my last play was on GB ;)
oh, I see. The super-deformed one? (Nettou)
