We need to make this man play shmups!

I definately think we should find a way to get this man to play shmups. Starting with Dimahoo. I'll be e-mailling him this evening, and sending him the shump forum URL as well as the names of games to play.

Shpuld be good./

Peace out, braaaaaaaaahs!!!

He's actually a rather strong ST player who placed top 8 at a couple of EVOs.

LOL at The Witcher 2 having anything to learn from Cutscene Creed. TW2 is great and the closest I've seen to an RPG with an arcade philosophy (there's an 1CC mode, even). I also died a lot at the beginning of that game, but once I actually learned the fighting system and stopped mashing hoping to get a hit in, the game got really good. Too bad DSP couldn't get past the mashing phase.
“But we didn't want the game to be a piece of cake at the beginning like, you know, an interactive movie. That wasn't what we were aiming for. We definitely wanted to introduce at least some level of difficulty. I think the most common misunderstanding is that most people compare our 'normal difficulty' to other games' 'normal difficulty'.”
We need more modern developers like that.

At what point did this become the "whatever the hell random non-shmup related topic you feel like making" board?

Being mind-numbingly terrible at games is that guy's entire shtick - see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSvljW_B6Y8. It's hard to think he's not doing it on purpose.

He's (in)famous for exploiting the ignorance of others by selling slightly modified joysticks for crazy money. Bring up DSP / darksydephil in the Tech Talk Forum of shoryuken.com and you'll likely get an ear full. Unfortunately, he thrives on |attention|. I never made the connection to dr. trouserplank.

Yeah he's a complete idiot and most people on the community despise him for good reason. He's still a really good ST player though.

He's top 5 in the US at super turbo when he has his practice in.

He quit going to FGC tournaments or EVO a few years back after everyone cussed him out.

Also apparently I make stupid threads when I'm really drunk.

He has done a shmup before (Deathsmiles) and he probably sucks shit at it as much as he does at Black Mesa.
