About


About time I updated this freaking thing!

For those who already know me, I am Monodi. Those who doesn't, well, I am Monodi.

I got such a growing passion of gaming through the years and now I am currently in college starting my courses of Game Design as well!

I consider myself a Nintendo fanboy from all my life, but I have been much more in contact with titles for PC recently. Not that I am abandoning one, but I think it pretty much could cover the best the industry has to offer.

I am up for the philosophy that gameplay is more important than graphics, but I think graphics and technology are also a crucial part of the industry and experience even.

Games I love and recommend in no particular order

Rhythm Heaven (DS)
Half-Life 2 (PC/XBOX)
Team Fortress 2(PC)
Drill Dozer (GBA)

Fuck. Fucking fuck. Shit fuck fuck dammit.

This is so sad.

I became a huge fan of Cing the moment I played Trace Memory and Hotel Dusk Room 215 for the first time. They brought back the genre of point-n-click adventures to the DS with a japanese touch.

i still want to play Another Code: R, Little King's Story and The Last Window. These guys are amazing.

I just hope they are absorbed by Nintendo, as I think it could be the best thing that could happen to them at least.

Also yeah, hoping Last Window is getting localized at the very least.

Yeah, I agree, they'd be a good investment for Nintendo and they could go on doing what they do well.

Well, bankruptcy doesn't mean its all over, its just means they're not in a very good situation. Let's hope they recover or someone like Nintendo helps them recover.
Dammit. I loved Trace Memory despite its gameplay flaws and I was really looking forward to some of their upcoming titles. Well, best of luck to all their and I hope for the best for all those involved.
Dammit, mouse slipped.

Anywho, this is a shame. I loved Hotel Dusk and I really hope this doesn't hurt The Last Window from coming over the pond. Would suck major if it did.
Shit.
Didn't help that Nintendo wouldn't release the Trace Memory sequel in the US, I'm guessing.
@TheCleaningGuy

I think that is the aspect that drives me more mad.

I don't care if the game is not ultra-super-phenomenal, I really wanted to experience the continuation of the case in the Trace project.

Yeah I know I can import it from Europe, but.. well, you know. It's not NTSC.
well that sucks...a company does some unique things on nintendo platforms and now they are bankrupt. Although it doesn't say that they are forced to close so maybe they can get out of this.
Goodnight, sweet prince. :[

I'd hope Ninty would give 'em a hand. They have done some really great stuff for the DS. =/ We can always dream..?
@Birthmark Destructor

How the fuck are you daring to spit out that shit? I am not taking sides here. A very talented studio is facing serious economical problems, and you had to cockslap anti-fanboyism?
@Birthmark Destructor
And proof that you're the biggest douchebag on Dtoid right now. Regardless of your choice of games, a studio that made some of the most unique point and click games right now is potentially going to lay off several people, and now they can't put food on their plate. That's nothing to be happy about regardless of whether or not you like them.
@Birthmark Destructor: Shut the hell up. God damn, your anti-Nintendo bias is so retardedly misguided that it's almost sad.

It's sad that they're having trouble. I never played any of their games, but I've heard good things about them.
DAMMIT WHY DIDN'T I BUY LITTLE KINGS STORY GODDAMMIT
I like CiNG, but for every great game like Hotel Dusk, they've made something dull like Glass Rose. They're brilliant storytellers that could teach a few developers about restraint in narrative, but when a lot of their games are stripped down point and click adventures that lack puzzles, they were always giving themselves a hard sell.

I'm pretty sure The Last Window is still getting an overseas release. It's a shame that there won't be anymore after that though.
^--idiot
We're not fapping because we're happy about it, we're fapping because we want people to know about this, maybe get in some more sales before they announce that they're closing their doors. I can tell you, its certainly worked on me.
@Birthmark: You are the only one happy about this. The rest are fapping so that others will see this, not because they are happy. You do yourself no favors with this attitude of yours.
Trololololol. Ban his sick filth.
Some days I wish the bridge would just fall on trolls like Birthmark Destructor.
:(
I really liked Hotel Dusk, this news sucks. Hopefully Nintendo will wisen up and localize the sequel.
Fuck, THAT CiNG? Jesus, no. Nintendo, don't let them die. They's good people.
@Birthmark Destructor - I didn't fap because I was happy about it, I was fapping so news would hit the frontpage. Thanks for helping us get it on the front page, I know it supporting retro gaming erodes your soul, if you even have one.
