Okay, so the winners were announced a day or two ago and I thought I'd make a little post about it. The Independent Games Festival is a yearly event where games from independent developers (and publishers) are entered into a competition. I think it's quite neat because you get a chance to see games you wouldn't see otherwise, and many of them are better than many mainstream games. Seamus McNally AwardGish and Wik and the Fable of SoulsInnovation in Game DesignGish and Wik and the Fable of SoulsInnovation in AudioSteer Madness and Global Defense NetworkInnovation in Visual ArtAlien Hominid and Wik and the Fable of SoulsTechnical ExcellenceAlien Hominid and RocketBowlAudience AwardAlien Hominid and NI've played the demos for Gish, N and Wik & the fable of souls, I haven't gotten around to trying the other ones. Gish seemed nice enough as a 2D side-scrolling platform, you play a ball of tar out to save his girlfriend. Both looked an played nice. N mainly looked very nice, very sleek. It's definitely worth going to their website and downloading it. Wik & the fable of souls may have won several awards, but I found it got pretty dull rather fast, but perhaps someone else might enjoy it. Links to the winners: Alien HominidGishGlobal Defense NetworkNRocketBowlSteer MadnessWik & the fable of soulsThe IGF website has a list of all competition entrants, it's worth a look.

Speed Runs
Like watching people beat games that take days in minutes? (5) I found this site recently which has a HUGE list of Speed Runs and what not. Some you have to
download, but some you can watch on the Flash Player. And don't forget to look on YouTube for
it, if you don't feel like downloading one. lol The site pretty much started back when Quake
was "The new thing" and everyone was amazed by 3D graphics. It pretty much was a Speed Run site for
Quake until it expanded itself to All Speedruns such as PC, PSX, PS2, PS3, Xbox, Xbox 360, GB, GBC,
GBA, etc http://speeddemosarchive.com/GameList.html here you go, enjoy.....
Best Snes Games Of All Time.
(16) I play roms frequently so I just had to bring up this topic. Here are my ratings. Make up your own
categories if you wish, as I am. Most challenging. Super Metroid ( this game was prolly one of the
toughest games for me when I first played it, it has to be one of the best games of all time )
Runner Up. Super Ghouls and Ghosts ( this game is also challenging as well. I cant believe someone
could run a speed run on this game without being touched. ) First Ever Super Mario World ( This
happened to be the very first game I ever play when I was young. It was something....

Weird But Fun Games

Rhythm-action/music Games
(2) I just noticed there's no subforum for this.. Anyways, anyone play rhythm action games? I love
DDR and In The Groove, and lately I've been playing Guitar Hero on ps2. Another recent favorite
for me was Gitaroo Man for PS2. It was really different from a lot of rhythm action games and it was
freaking hard... Its really rare though, so good luck finding it /tongue.gif"

Realism In Video Games
(14) Why do people always strive to replicate reality within something as virtual as video games? Is it
solely for the sake of immersion? That being asked, I feel that games do not need to mimic reality
in order to be "immersive". Let's take the Metal Gear series for example. The kind of things
that happen within the series is ridiculous. There are people contacting the dead, surviving falls
from gigantic bipedal robots, controlling wasps, taking down tanks singlehandedly, using psychic
powers, calculating ricochet physics precisely and instantaneously, etc. However, this....

Old School Games

Mario (original, poor 2D graphics), Battle City (the one where you shoot tanks before they shoot you
or your camp), Adventure Island (where you jump to get fruits), Galaxian (where you shoot/avoid
spaceships). It's fun to play and it doesn't require much from your PC since it's very
light and takes less memory unlike most PC games now. I don't know where my fr....
