>If you place your red soapstone or use a red cracked eye orb in dranglaic castle, you can be summoned as a looking glass phantom to help the boss in the fight.

Never knew this until recently when i decided to replay the souls series and i got summoned into the fight. Neat concept in an otherwise mediocre game.

Is was the only good bossfight in that game. Shame the summoning animation took so long most people could kill the boss before you got in.

Since I played the PS2 version, I wasn't aware that the menus, HUD elements and other stuff from Killer7 are clearly inspired by the Gamecube BIOS.

>Super Smash Bros 64

>Electric attacks on all other characters show their skeleton

>In the case of Samus, it shows a low-poly model of her without her armor.

Did you not play Demon's Souls? It's exactly the way the Old Monk works.

>implying DS "fans" played demon's souls

The old monk fight was ruined for me. I was summoned and the faggot died on the way to the boss. Talk about a getting cock blocked.

nigger are you serious? everyone was talking about that when the game actually came out

You can met the alleged son of the Mysterious Stranger in a random encounter in New Vegas.

Speaking of skeletons. There's a gun in FEAR 2 that melts the flesh off the enemies when you shoot them. Most enemies leave a regular skeleton, but invisible ninja replicas leave the strange plastic looking one because of weight-reducing bone implants and shit.

I never owned a PS3, always been a PC fag. When i save up enough cash im doing a full upgrade so i can play the PS3 emulator. Sounds pretty cool though.

>implying i gave a shit about Dark Souls 2 when everyone was saying how awful it was compared to Dark Souls 1 and Demon Souls

And i agree with them too, therefore i wasn't interested at all.

i loved doing this. there was nothing better in that game than being summoned by the mirror knight and then healing his ass back to full.

I'm one of the idiots who didn't realize you could fight Sanae Hanekoma until years after I'd beaten TWEWY. I went back and beat it a few months ago… and, while it wasn't exactly the hardest boss fight I've ever been in, it was definitely one of the most fulfilling.

That's actually true if you abused pre-patch wrath of the gods and mundane weapons. There is nothing more satisfying than killing gank squads.

How did you not know about that? I clued into that fact when I was being summoned for that fight just for fun.

In crysis you can use the underbarrel grenade launcher to give you a predicted impact arc.

Crysis has a lot of little touches like that you'd never find without knowing.
