Title: General Gaming Discussion [ToT of Gaming]
Post by: Vlatko on February 07, 2012, 11:35:48 pm
Talk about anything, consoles, games, whatever. This is a general gaming discussion which means you cannot really derail.

Just post here stuff you think that doesn't deem enough for a topic or just join in the conversations :D

I heard somewhere (Can't remember) that Notch doesn't worry much about piracy, since people generally end up buying the game anyway. And he's right.

And yeah a bit Off-topic. We need a General Gaming discussion thread.. -__-;
Done :D

Also yeah piracy is a 2 way street.. I'm pretty sure a game company said that, not sure if it as minecraft though.

honestly, game developers shouldnt be as worried as they are about piracy, they dont lose as much money as they say. i mean, u dotn get the full experience most of the time. especially if the game has a multiplayer that runs off of OFFICIAL servers and nothing else. i understand, yeah it serious, but, not as catastrophic as they say it is. they are still making billions of dollars off their games

Here's where he said it.

I agree with him on every part of it.

Xenoblade Chronicles for the Wii.
Looks amazing.
I think I may pick it up.
I'd like to know if it's playable multiplayer offline though.
And not like Monster Hunter Tri where you can only do arena.
A co-op or something in split-screen.

True, but if you look at it from their side. They have made let's say (to make my point easier I'll keep the digits short) $1000 off a so like 10000s of copies. Then like 1000 people pirate the game. That extra $100 is like 10% of their earnings. It might not seem like that much, until you bring out the big digits. Yeah they make billions of dollars, but it's as if you make a script for a program or something, you sell your program to 10 people for $100 each and like 3 people pirate it/get a burnt copy of a mate, that extra $300 means a lot.. Especially if you going to be updating the program, or going to make a v2.0 and not have as much money to invest with as you didn't make as much profit as you expected (especially when you have to pay your workers and stuff)


Should the thread be General Gaming Discussion, Gaming General Discussion, etc. etc.. to me the name sounds kind of funny..

I hate it when games announce multiplayer or something, and you dream of awesome co-op. Then it's some stinky mini games and stuff.

Yeah, sucked when I bought Monster Hunter.
There's a huge online co-op but no offline co-op, just arena. Like, what's even the deal?

I'll post a snippet from Notch that sums it up..
Quote
If someone pirates Minecraft instead of buying it, it means I’ve lost some “potential” revenue. Not actual revenue, as I can never go into debt by people pirating the game too much, but I might’ve made even more if that person had bought the game instead. But what if that person likes that game, talks about it to his or her friends, and then I manage to convince three of them to buy the game? I’d make three actual sales instead of blocking out the potentially missed sale of the original person which never cost me any money in the first case.
Is anyone else looking forward to and anticipating the release of the three Resident Evils this year?
I'm kinda tired of Capcom IMHO. I'm not looking forward to RE6 after Capcom said they wanted to appeal to the "Call of Duty" audience.
Are you kidding me? Why? Resident Evil is a survival horror game NOT a arcade shooter like COD. It really annoys me when devs always want to copy COD..

No. Tried the demo for the 3DS one and hated it.
It was the first Resident Evil I tried too.

I'm eager for SMT: Devil Survivor 2 and Kid Icarus: Uprising.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not against pirating. I admire notch's attitude towards it but yeah he pretty much sums up what I would have summed it up. If I had no intentions of buying it and I decided to pirate the game to see what it's like, they are not losing any money as I had no intention of getting it in the first place.

No

I used to love runescape, back in the day lvl 60 was such a mad level (for non-members anyway), took me so long to get there.. now-a-days theres like level 100s everywhere (i'm guessing, I was last on it like 2 years ago checking how it has changed).  I had like all the best non-member stuff (rune), then one day I come back to it and all my good stuff was gone :'( I think I may have been hacked :(

Yeah I used to play Maplestory all the time.. Didn't care to much for it because no one played it with me.. Neighbour tried but his comp was just a little to crap to play it (back then specs cut it fine for games, these days if your no where near the specs you can't play it)

Also, if possible, let's not play on an Official Server since I'm running a couple mods that Valve Servers disable.
Nothing bad, just survivor/gun reskins and a mod that makes it so I can say different stuff.

Sure, the game doesn't require you to make a server or join a server with other people.  It finds servers from other people who have open ports :P

Yeah.... I hated when the tank hits you away like 1800 km away... reminds me of skyrim when the giants hit you first thing in the game..

I'm on the reserves right now.. but I think I selected the wrong career mode, because I can't buy any players or nothing.. maybe when I'm off reserves maybe.. but hopefully I didn't select the wrong career mode.

Lol, Runescape looks like shit.

MapleStory
Vindictus
Requiem

Also, Ragnarok is bad and everyone who played it should feel bad.

Interesting read, when u think about it though, consumers never have "rights" to their product anyway. Especially when gaming is concerned. I also don't think that bannin for "gifting for money" should really be that bad, i mean, there's been alot of times I've bought games for friends and gifted it to them in return for munnies because they:
A. Don't have a credit card
B. use PayPal and there's a sale and they don't wanna wait

I've also gifted in exchange for other games. Trading Is no different from selling the game, it's the same concept.

Nonetheless valve was extremely arrogant and negligent about this case, and it doesn't reflect well on their employees and business

Spent a many hours on this.

I'm pretty broad in my tastes... I like everything...

Yeah exactly, theres not really a genre I don't like.. however games in those genres are a different story... the game has to be top notch to my tastes/just something amazingly unique for me to play it.. I rarely play any new games that come out these days because they are all fairly basic and aren't trying anything new. The only game I'm thinking of buying next is Jak Daxter Triology HD Remake for the PS3 (came out in American I believe, still not in Australia).. just because that game was soo awesome and it'd be convenient to have a PS3 version when I only own Jak 2 on PS2 (borrowed others off friends).. Other then that the only games I really want now is Zelda OoT 3DS Remake or Forza 4..can't think of anything that I extremely want :P

Though I'm more an RPG guy, I like all types of genre's. Though If there's one I play the least, it's Fighting games. I don't play those much.
My top 5: (I'm using broad terms, So like I count Zelda under RPG.)
1. RPG
2. Adventure
3. Sandbox
4. Platformer
5. Simulation

I like most games too.
Only ones I can't play are Dance or Music games cause I'm too shy or I don't wanna annoy the people around.
I can't have fun when my dad tells me to quiet down. ._.
Maybe I would like those games but yeah...

Also, simulators aren't for me.
Even The Sims are too simulation for me and I can't make anyone survive! XD

That's a bit abstract.
It's more like an adventure game than an RPG imo.
Though Skyward Sword has more RPG aspects to it.
But yeah, the main point of RPGs is levels, usually. You don't get to have levels in Zelda.
Another point is the 'Role Play' which is almost non-existent in Zelda.

Just played an epic game of L4D2 with Sabo.

He and the Bots were down by the car, just filled it up, I was going to jump off the ledge and land next to the car, incapacitating me in the process, but when I moved to jump off the edge, I grabbed on, and they left without me TT_TT

If only Ellis wasn't such a wimp and would have accepted having his legs broken over dying alone hanging on a ledge...

But I'm not just complaining about Katy Perry, I think she's pretty good too, but I'm mad at how choosing a celebrity to advertise a game/expansion is not what Maxis (The creators of The Sims 1 and 2 and all their expansions) would ever do.  Not to mention that it's a terrible expansion with things that should have been in Late Night.  Yes we get it, Late Night was fun, but you don't need to appeal to the entire fudging pre-teen crowd!

Oh, and they are also including a social network in game that can be linked with Facebook and Twitter.  And it'll most likely butt in with everything you do.

And in their latest update, they added Advertisements to the game!  Hmm, I thought when you buy something, advertisements aren't an issue, now the billboard across from my house is a deodorant advert!  Then they added another update where everything in the Sims 3 Store is now in your Build/Buy Mode.  IT TAKES UP A SHITLOAD OF SPACE and you need to pay to use any of them, then if you choose to actually buy something this way, there is a 75% chance of it crashing the game.


Bottom line - I hate EA.

Yeah there was, like hot date, house party, vacation and stuff, but I'm saying Sims 1 didn't need expansions, it was an amazing game in itself. Yeah their games are usually good, but they are money hungry for money even though they probs the biggest gaming company out.

Yeah, well, I think it was Vlatko who was wondering how The Darkness II made the rankings to Australia...
Anyways, it picked my curiosity.

But yeah, I'm gonna get a 3DS, I just like Nintendo better. Though like I said Persona 4 The Golden tempts me. But 3DS just has more games I like, plus it's cheaper.

If you reserve your Vita at GameStop now, you get a discount and a 4GB memory card.
The memory card is the big deal there. Lol.

This isn't a 'let's hate EA thread'.
Get over it.
After a page it's okay. I get it.
I like EA Games. I love The Sims 3.
There's nothing wrong with a star appearing in a game.
IT'S NOT THE FIRST TIME.
Yes, but it is the Gaming Topic of Topiclessness, so it's almost impossible to go off topic unless the conversation no longer has anything to do with gaming, in which case I will move the conversation to the actual ToT and issue a warning.

For the 3DS yes, but the game is a DS game, it wasn't made for the 3DS. I'm sure number 2 will be.

No. q_q
It's supposedly released for the DS even though the first one already has a remake for the 3DS.
To my disappointment of course.

Though Atlus is working on another SMT title for the 3DS and a Persona title also for the 3DS.

Yeah, I guess so. They seem similar in some ways.
From what I heard, Terraria is more epic than Minecraft but with all the updates always coming in on Minecraft, it's getting more and more intense.
Like, next update: Zombies able to smash through door, paths AI and lots of new stuff.

Hahah yeah Terraria has more features IMO (haven't really played minecraft so I really shouldn't be comparing the 2) minecraft to me feels more of a building game, where you just build stuff. While terraria to me felt more of an adventure building game, where you had to go in caves with bats and zombies and stuff to mine bronze and stuff for your armour and to build you house and stuff.

It was more building before but now the Survival mode and Creative mode are much more distinctive.
Like you need to kill mobs to gain experience points to upgrade your gears.
And other stuff like the Nether (hellish world) that has much more important stuff in it than before.
And the End (sky world) with the Enderdragon that's impossible to kill alone or unprepared.

(and skyrim when I first got it, now I don't play it, mainly because last time I created a new character my older one got deleted somehow, and this one I've got now is like lvl50 with all the best stuff and I don't want to get rid of her.

Not really into sports games, besides the occasional NBA 2K games. And I haven't played Uncharted yet, I never get around to buying them since I have no cash. (Also I don't think Uncharted is FPS, it's like 3rd person or something, behind the back.)

I'd get the Persona games so much! And Catherine! And that game I saw the other day that I cdf remembering the name! x3
My favorite Persona game would be Persona 4 though Persona 3 is REALLY good too, Persona 4 is my personal fav. (You can control your party members unlike PS2 Persona 3, but Persona 3 Portable added that in from P4. Also I'd say the Persona fusion system is more balanced and refined in P4.)

Yeah, I like the occasional sports game, depends on the game really.. FIFA I love a lot. I've played NBA but don't think I'd buy it, golf and stuff is good. Yeah I wasn't calling Uncharted a FPS, I meant as in I'm not good at FPS games on consoles, and Uncharted is a shooting game, hence the link between FPS and shooter :P But yeah I just can't aim with my controller..


Also I swear my PS3 has a delay (between controller and the tv), because on fifa it takes like 0.5 a second to respond sometimes, sometimes even worse and a full second...

A KDR is a Kill Death Ratio, which is if you get 10 kills 2 deaths you have a KDR of 10:2 (5:1).. KD is just a shorter way of implying the KDR.

What Vlatko said, basically, cause MGS is really slow, even if you try to play it fast you quickly learn that's the dumbest way to do it. And you have to take your time. It pretty much rubs off onto your fps play, I found myself tactically thinking, chilling back and dealing with all the enemies pushing on us, and then trying to move forward, instead of just rushing in and taking two with me and then dying... Flanking ability has actually increased a crap load too...

:/
I know the kill/death ratio.
Just thought you were talking of a game. XD
Then, my KDR in pretty much any game is quite low... or high? It's bad anyway. :P
It's not that bad. (Belial killed me in Devil Survivor though. Forgot to switch my fire spells for ice spells. XD)
I suck in FPS but I usually grind too much in RPGs. I suck in Fighting games too.
That Blazblue... q_q

I'm quite good at Zelda games most of the time.
I even beat the last boss of Skyward Sword on the first try!

But enough about me. How are you doing~ XD

15 incapacitations is normal for me in those games. Thankfully in God Eater you have team mates who revive you. Though I'm stuck near the end of the game since I'm at a part when I only have 1 teammate, and I die too many times for him to heal because of damn Susano'o's spin attack spamming that has unbelievable range while I try to heal.  >:(

Well yeah, they all run off of the exact same engine other than small coding changes.  Though each episode shows off a new feature.

Episode One showed off improved AI with Alyx and Episode Two showed off the new Enhanced Particle system.

CoD is still on the top sellers, yet everyone know it's the 'same game different title'. Yet it's still rated 9ish/10 out of no where even though it's $100 every year plus $20 per DLC.. I don't want to bring the hate out again, but EA are money hungry, I just hope that they don't make sports games like FIFA a money hungry series.

It's on top of the charts too. But would anyone say GameFreak ruins Pokemon?
I don't think so.
CoD is bad since it's the same thing over again. However, I'll take myself as an example, say I buy MW3, I would probably enjoy it and think it's awesome since it would be my first CoD game since the 2nd one.
Because, CoD games have a wonderful gameplay, great graphics. The formula works.
So you can't say it's ruined.

Same goes with many other games.

Don't get me wrong, I enjoy playing cod every now and again (don't own one of their games though), Sabo brings over his and we play survival or zombies or something. But it's $100 every year and to play the good maps its another like $20 every 2 months. The only people that play it online is 12 year olds as well, which is annoying as they are always on mic..




Changing the topic as this will start another EA fight :P

I am starting a manager mode on FIFA11, I don't know what team to pick.. Suggestions? I don't want to pick some 4-5 star team though, as it won't be very fun.

EA games have some major problems lately. You can't blame people for disliking them.
They did ruin westwood Studios and the greatest RTS series (it pioneered the genre pretty much!).
they ruined their best selling PC series, The Sims. Sims 3 Expansion packs suck, and you have to buy like 75% of the Vanilla items from EA's Sims Store.
I used to be a **** NFS fan, but need for speed has been bad lately.
They forced Pandemic Studios to merge with EA when Mercenaires 2 came out, but most of the members of Pandemic didn't agree and quit. This is why we don't have a star wars battlefront 3.

On the side-note

BF3 is rated 8.5/10

Yeh it was rated that on release. Idk how many of you have played it lately but it's pretty much fucked. They "updated" all their servers, which were fine to begin with, and now you can't even find a server in your country, and the ones that you can, have horrible ping, we have to play on Japanese servers now, and we are getting better latency than any other server.

Secondly, the ultra cod noobs that have now picked up BF3 cause of the fact that EA, PURPOSEFULLY, sped up the gameplay as to enforce "run and gun" players to move from cod to bf. that, goes against all that bf stood for. Now, we've got all these servers, where little 13 year old cod players who think they're top **** cause they can get 50 kills to 10 deaths because they use a FULLY AUTOMATIC SHOTGUN with EXPLOSIVE ROUNDS! The only safe haven we have from these people, are the B2K map servers.

The difference is that Pokemon never really had room to improve. It could only really be vamped up with better sprites and expanded with more pokes. That's all Pokemon was to alot of people back in the day, "I wonder what new Pokemon will come out with the next game" not "I wonder what new game mechanics will be introduced".

Cod on the other hand, has indeed, kept the exact same multiplayer for a long time. And they have a **** load of room to improve. And yet they choose not to try and create a bigger and better game. Think of all the QUALITY games out there. Skyrim, how long was that in the works? Over 2-3 years easily. Killzone 3, just little over 2 years I think also. Even battlefield, strive to only release a major title every 2 years, because they know if they release one every year (like cod does) it'll be the same game over and over again.

Cod has always been a great story teller, but they've never been innovative.

Yeah, I was going to get Battlefield 3, but after seeing what they did to it, I decided not to.  This is the reason I don't bother buying multiplayer games most of the time.  No matter how amazing the game is, it can easily be ruined by an online network or publishers.

And I think Skyrim was in it's earliest stages of production right when Oblivion came out, so around 2006 - 2007.  That's about 4 or 5 years of work and look at how different the two games are.

I hate online multiplayer games. I can't have no fun playing them.
Either CSS, Half-Life 2, Halo, Gears of War can't get into them.
It's like there are always noobs, campers or trolls.

To me, Skyrim wasn't impressive. The graphics weren't even upgraded much from Oblivion. The only real change was the skills thingy which you like or you don't like. I personally thought it was exhaustive.

See, when I think of noobs, I usually instantly think: a guy who sits in a corner with a claymore infront of him (most don't even think of the claymore) and waits for people to walk past, or, a guy who literally just run and guns and cares nothing forthe team, or, someone who uses a weapon that literally everyone hates. I'd rather have a really jumpy noob, who's careful as **** and tries to play the objective, then some dick that sits in a corner and wipes out half the enemy team.

CSS, the semi auto shotgun should never be used unless its just a **** around. The AWP should only be used in scrims and clan wars.

BF3, you touch the USAS and I will track you down and murder you brutally.

CoD, people who use snipers and don't bother using the scope.

On the other hand. I can't wait for CS GO... It's gonna be such a simple shooter, and it's gonna **** all over BF and CoD. It's gonna be awesome.

To be honest, I haven't played CSS that much, but I just got into it and love it.

To me, there are two different ways to play.  Playing online is like essentially playing online, not realistic, but fun.  Playing with bots is a slightly different story, the bots in CSS are actually pretty cool, not the smartest, but it's somewhat realistic (Ex: CT forces talk and move around like an actual SWAT team and respond to orders in the chat).

Online has the same experience if you have a decent clan. The clan I was in, we worked so well together (barring 2-3 people who were extremely difficult... Not difficult in ability, they were really good. But difficult to work with) but after a while, when you realize a select few wouldn't turn up to Prac nights and would be rude to the authority, it died off quickly.

I wanna buy CSS again. But my mouse is officially screwed... Good times..

Skyrim has dragons.. oblivion didn't
Skyrim has dual wielding.. oblivion didn't
Skyrim has the ability to wield sword and magic, or shield and magic or anything along those lines.. oblivion didn't
Skyrim has shouts (because of the storyline).. oblivion didn't       (pretty much a secondary magic attack that can be used by everyone)
Skyrim has the ability to disarm traps, also the lock system isn't as random.. oblivion didn't
I really could go on and on about the new things in Skyrim... The map is 100x bigger as well..

To be honest, I haven't played CSS that much, but I just got into it and love it.
I'm the opposite.. I love CSS just haven't gotten into it (I've racked up like 70 hours of my total time of owning it :( I really enjoy CSS, there is 1000 servers, and it's not just a simple shooter, it has a billion mini games which you can play (that's the only thing I do on CSS).

They nt make it 60-70. I highly doubt it. It'll be 50 TOPS, through PSN. Idt they will sell any hard copies. It depends how expensive it is what platform I'm getting it on. If its 40-50 dollars. I'll get it on both. If its any mor e than that. I'll have a choice to make

I hope someone will develop a mod that disables cross platform play on servers.

Not that I don't like PS3 players, but cross platform play usually comes with drawbacks.  Like in Portal 2, if you played with a PS3 player, your hats, skins, and custom taunts don't work.  And even more annoying, if the person on the PS3 Pre-Ordered the game at Gamestop, you are stuck wearing the ridiculous crash cage outfit.

Lol. Sorry but I don't see much improvement from adding dragons, they're fun though.
Dual Wielding is cool too but the magic and sword comes with it ne?
Disarm traps was a lack in Oblivion. SO it's not quite an improvement if it was majorly lacking. Well yes, but not a surprise. I'm so bad at saying stuff.

The graphics really only have higher res textures...
IF you trigger your textures down a bit, you'll notice there's no improvement.
The dragons are ugly, the characters are still ugly, and most bugs I could encounter in Oblivion are back.

But I dun wanna argue over that anymore.

skyrim to oblivion isn't COD to COD.
I am sick of that stupid assumption. Skyrim got critical accliam becuase it was different from **** COD and COD being the same, or BF2 and Bf3 being similar and all that repeating bullshit.
Oblivions graphics are completely different from Skyrim, they run on two different engines.
Larger map, New Story, New Map.
They do not have only high-res textures, I know that from modding experience.

Ugly Characters? Here is an Orc in the past 3 Elder Scrolls

Like EVERY game with low textures looks like the previous title pretty much. Thats the point, when you play a game with low textures it looks like crap.

Skyrim didn't receive all that fame for nothing. It sticks out like a sore thumb for quality, styling ect. ect. compared to War-Based FPS games that come out every other month.

And you can't deny the graphics for the characters look better the more they go on.

Or Oblivion for that fact?
When you have owned those games, and put enough hours in them, thats when the difference shows. It wasn't overhyped. It is plainly a good game. Tons of people who haven't played any elder scrolls love Skyrim, because that's just it. Its an Elder Scrolls Game, and the best one yet. It lives up to it's name. Bethesda games always have Bugs and glitches, without any of those it's not Bethesda. And the game has its flaws and perks, no game is perfect. But it got VERY close to perfect. People have been making shitty games lately that nobody believes a mark over 9.2 is possible. It's only 2011 no games have perfect graphics. Skyrim got pretty close to good, because not many games HAVE better graphics than what skyrim has.

They're far from perfect. Some bugs can render the game impossible to play.
And most games' graphics are better than Skyrim's. I'm not saying I play games for graphics, indeed, I'm currently playing Persona on the PS. Just that it was so hyped and it got such huge scores that it just feels like, I dunno, over-hyped critics.

Keep in mind, most of the things you made bold can be fixed with patches. It did deserve a 9.5/10. It didn't deserve a 10 but it definately deserved above 9.

I didn't really see skyrim as over hyped at all. I mean. Battlefield came out a week an a but before it. And mw3 within a couple of days of it. 2 of the worlds biggest shooters, and your saying skyrim got overhyped? I don't think so. Both shooters stole the spotlight, even I, who pretty much reads gaming news EVERY day, and have a community of online gamers who are VERY enthusiastic about what we do, barely knew much about it. Alot of skyrim was just sprung on us. All of a sudden it was being released. All of sudden there was a confirmed date. All of a sudden there was a CE that BARELY anyone knew about until they were all sold out (which I'm a proud owner of). Everytime I walked into that EB games store of mine, people were always saying "omg battlefield" or "omg mw3" the employees would be like, "what about skyrim" I'd be like "hell yeah" everyone's else was like "wtf is a skyrim"

And mw3 within a couple of days of it. 2 of the worlds biggest shooters, and your saying skyrim got overhyped? I don't think so. Both shooters stole the spotlight, even I, who pretty much reads gaming news EVERY day, and have a community of online gamers who are VERY enthusiastic about what we do, barely knew much about it. Alot of skyrim was just sprung on us. All of a sudden it was being released. All of sudden there was a confirmed date. All of a sudden there was a CE that BARELY anyone knew about until they were all sold out (which I'm a proud owner of). Everytime I walked into that EB games store of mine, people were always saying "omg battlefield" or "omg mw3" the employees would be like, "what about skyrim" I'd be like "hell yeah" everyone's else was like "wtf is a skyrim"

Really? All I could hear on the net for a while before it was released was how Skyrim was gonna be so awesome. :/

Anyways, I'm sorry guys, just, I' disappointed in it and may not finish it.
I can't even remember where I left it.

I'm trying to finish Devil Survivor Overclocked before the 2 comes out.

I hate house guests in TS3

Terrian Pollard's girlfriend showed up, she broke my computer, my toilet, and my sink.  Then when I caught on fire inventing, I ran inside hoping that she would put it out, she just sat there playing my video games, ignoring the fact that he was on fire!  After burning to ash, I loaded an old save game.

It came with 2 free games. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Little Big Planet.
Plus, I bought a second controller.
The God of War bundle which has a red controller plus God of War I and II.
And there was a promotion for the in-store warranty. 3 years for the price of 2.

I am quite happy~

Gonna be less active for a while.

Well I've been wondering why has there been no news about Halo 4 since it's announcement last year. And now I have seen some news on it, the game looks all new, made from the ground up and I am personally really exited.

Mother of God...

THIS WILL BE EPIC!
I love how they gave Multiplayer a backstory, i was always trying to figure out why the new spartans were fighting each other.

My grandpa gave me his old TV.
Now I can play video games in my room.
I may play more Monster Hunter from now on.

Though I won't take my PS3 in my room cause it's SO HARD to switch between HDMI and AV.
Took me 1 hour the first time and 30 minutes the second time.
Raged so hard.

I'm making a house mod for New Vegas.  Though it will require Honest Hearts and Lonesome Road.

It's mainly a personal home, but if anyone has the required DLC and wants it, let me know :P

They're actually remastered versions of the 2 PSP ones.
Pretty good nonetheless.

We can take away several important points from this demonstration. First: all the footage originates in real-time on a PlayStation 3. None of the video is pre-rendered like traditional CG cutscenes. Quantic Dream created this demonstration one year ago with the first version of their newest proprietary engine. Now, the team has already advanced to version three.

Awesome~

Whut? :/
I'm enjoying CoD more than I should. However, the campaign looks stupid, overly violent, too hard and boring.
I saw my bro play through it all while raging. He's usually calm and patient in games and he's better than me in FPS. So yeah, I probably won't do the campaign and just multi with him.

The second one.
The CPs are never helping.
You got 3 entries to cover. You have the help of 4 PCs. Result: You've gotta cover ALL THREE OF THEM!
That and it's a fucing run and gun game with no strategy at all!
And the killing of civilians is just... whatever.
I don't even understand how this game was allowed to even exist.

Well... I probably won't get it then.
Seems like Square won't go up in my esteem.
If there's 1 thing I can't stand in games, it's awkward controls. Like that Resident Evil game for the 3DS or the Metal Gear.
Really, studios can try their best to work with only 1 joystick but it just doesn't work out.

Also, I might have still buy it if it weren't for the repetitive levels.
Chances are I would buy it but never finish it. Which is just like throwing my money out the window...

Kid Icarus isn't made by Square, it's first party Nintendo by Project Sora.
I'm not a fan of IGN reviews either, they get the games for free and tend to nitpick and exaggerate flaws unless they were given money from the publisher through ads and hype. i.e Mass Effect 3
The only review site that I trust most often is Nintendo Life, they said the controls are a little awkward to use, but you get used to it and it becomes second nature.

On a completely different note, Portal 2 is 10$ on Steam along with a Portal+2 bundle for 12$ and Total War Shogun 2 for 7.50$.
I want to buy Shogun 2 but I doubt my computer could run it, but still, it would be nice to have it there in case end up getting my brothers old gaming desktop (powerful) if he buys a new one, and you can't beat the price.
Also the Portal bundle since I haven't got either yet. (ashamed)

They still rated it 8.5/10.

I didn't mind the werehog levels the platforming was really fun imo (Like the clocktower bit in Rooftop Run Night) the crazy jazz combat music got annoying though. Sonic 1 was okay but it was kinda bland, it was the first game though. I liked Sonic 2 & 3&K better though.
I like Sonic Adventure 1 a lot, even with all the glitches, it felt like a classic Sonic game in 3D. I also kinda like SA2, but eh..
I only really liked Sonic/Shadow stages and the story. The treasure hunting stages where way too big and it took way too long to find the emerald shards, it was done better in SA1 where the stages where smaller and it was actually fun. The mech Tails/Eggman levels weren't that fun. I would prefer the other characters to all play like Sonic's levels but with different abilites. (Tails flight, Knuckles glide and climbing.)

I just HATE playing online with people. It's always the same thing. People rages, trolls, n00bs, etc.
I have never had a good experience of online gaming!
So when I played TF2, it was the same. It was boring and an endless cycle of death and rebirth.

I can only stand Online RPGs. FPS are THE WORST.

Was it IGN that published the article about the study for online gaming?
Saying something like 1 out of 3 gamers were turned down by online gaming because of the other players.
Well, I'm with them. D:

When I play multiplayer I play in private games with freinds. If anyone happens to join we troll them. Thats what I hate about ps3, no privacy. if you join a public game /w freinds you have to hear all the little kids and trolls. Then you have to be bothered to mute them all.

When I play multiplayer I play in private games with freinds. If anyone happens to join we troll them. Thats what I hate about ps3, no privacy. if you join a public game /w freinds you have to hear all the little kids and trolls. Then you have to be bothered to mute them all.

Hum sorry but I wouldn't trade my PS3 for an Xbox that would last just a couple months.
It's the Xbox that truly sucks hardware-wise.
And there are more awesome games on PS3 imo.
I have Little Big Planet, Uncharted and God of War which are all PlayStation exclusives. Suck it!

LBP2 is still popular, and LBP2 is like a straight upgrade to LBP, so not many people find a reason to go back. [Lbp2 even has the levels from LBP1]
That happens when a sequel comes out for a game and the sequel is actually good.

Well. The problem here is, people that have gone into the game, much like me, who have gone in because they liked the previous games, will most likely enjoy the game regardless of ending. Those who bought it for the hype, as most people did, even those who owned the two before hand, have gone in with this huge expectation, and screwed themselves over.

98% of the players went in with expectations. Everytime I go into a game with expectations it turns into a crap game. Crysis 2, I was so excited, expected so much, played it 2 times, never picked it up again. The only expectation I had for ME3 was revealing Tali's face, which I was disappointed about cause they did it do shitly. Everything else I've been fine with so far, havnt gotten to the end, but still. I've played a shitton of multi, and almost have 100% galactic readyness from it xD.

skyrim.nexusmods.com (http://skyrim.nexusmods.com)

Get the Nexus Mod Manager and watch some of Gopher's Tutorials (Look it up on Youtube) to figure out how to install mods.


Now mod wise, I suggest Deadly Dragons (http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=3829), Werewolf Enhancer (http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=7523) (Or Tales of a Lycanthrope, I hear it might be better but it's not compatible with Werewolf Enhancer which I have), A Quality World Map - With Roads (http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=4929), Phenderix Magic Evolved (http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=5898), SkyUI (http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=3863), Vini's Smart Transmute Spell (http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=13437) (Essential if you are a Mage or Blacksmith), Alternate Start - Live another Life (http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=9557) (Good if you like to have multiple saves, but also if you want something different), Categorized Favorites Menu (http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=4862), and Bellyache's Animal and Creature Pack (http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=3621).

You can also get custom races if you want, though most of them are either Sexualized Mer (Elves) or Furry Races, take your pick.  But you might need a custom race fix for starting the game, I don't use custom races so I don't have one to suggest, maybe see if the guys who made the Oblivion Patch have made one for Skyrim.

No, not at all.

Though there has been a mod for Skyrim (And another Similar one for Oblivion, Fallout 3, and Fallout New Vegas) that is in early Alpha that's trying to do it on PC.

^Yeah, I haven't played skyrim in ages but from memory they said they were not going to release a multiplayer so why would they make one for just PS3? Did a quick google search and found nothing that popped out (if it was it'd be all over the internet). You just cleared it up :D

Lol. The dialogue was really simple.
In the later levels getting enough beads for a gold medal was difficult for me though. D:
But you couldn't really lose in Epic Yarn. Anyhow I'd recommend trading it in.
The value of Epic Yarn decreased though so you'll have to pay money to get Dreamland though.
I'd recommend Rayman Origins btw if you want to play a platformer.
It's 20 bucks for wii on amazon, and it's gotten 9.5/10 reviews.
Actually I've been thinking about getting the game myself.

All multiplayers are now CoD.
I'm enjoying Modern Warfare 2 with my bro.
Uncharted 3's coop is nice too and of course, Little Big Planet.

But I dunno for PS and PS2...

On the Wii side, there are all the latest new platformers and Smash and Mario Kart. :P

Yeah I was telling my sister how all the games are targeting the 12 year olds who beg their parents to buy the new cod every year. Those type of games, but on playstation 1 there was thousands of games I owned that were multiplayer that I could play with my sister, some bugs bunny and taz game, powerangers (just about every 2nd game). PS2 came out with a fair few as well, ratchet and clank even was 2player on ps2.. Nowadays the only multiplayer games I have on PS3 are LBP, UFC, FIFA. FIFA is to hard for her because I'm to good, UFC is to full on for her (I don't even play it anymore, just got it because me and my mate looked at youtube and looked great), we have already finished LBP and after you finish it it's not as fun co-op (even though me and my mate go off on the minigames)..

I don't want to go and buy a whole new console (even though it's priced down ALOT because of the WiiU) just to have some decent games to play, we aren't kids anymore so we don't have all day to play games like we used to, she has uni and I got school. It's just I miss the days of when I'd be able to spend quality time with my sister playing games, even on the PS1-2 the single player games were games that I could sit there with my sister (and dad or whatever) and we'd all sit there and take turns and it'd just be a whole lot of fun, them type of classic games aren't made anymore. Although Jak and Daxter Trilogy came out, which I plan to get as soon as I finish Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning (which will be a while because of school haha).

If I had a brother it'd be another story, I'd play FIFA and (I don't own COD) possibly COD with him as we'd share that male interest in them type of games, but with a sister there are differences, which probably the reason in which I loved the type of games I play now (like RPGs like Kingdom Hearts, Skyrim, them type of rpg, platformer, I don't really know the genre of them).

edit: I know I refer to sister a lot but the same applies for when friends come over, like with my neighbour on PS2 (he had an xbox) there was always a game to play together, Shrek or something (lol) but even if it wasn't multiplayer (Jak 2: Renegade) we would take turns and still have a ball!

edit2: inb4 tl;dr, essay etc.

In fact the graphic chips in the Wii U matches the power of the rumored chip for the PS4, though the PS4 rumors also state that they may use a different chip with even more power than currently expected, but the pricing could be outrageous up to #$500.00 per console. Plus, Sony just recently lost $6.4billion and have to lay off 10,000 jobs. This piece of news is not rumored at all, and since it's the case, the chips they may use will be equivalent to power, but weaker in memory (though the graphics it can handle are still considerably stronger, the frame rate is not strong to handle much).

Also if the PS4 ends up using that anti-used system rumor I don't see many people being pleased.

Also Resident Evil 6 Collectors edition, $1,200 (Ą105,000) for the 60$ game, some IPad cases, and a replica leather jacket. Yeeahh.. Leather jackets are usually $100-$200.. Hell you'll probably end up having to buy day 1 DLC too, as if paying $1,200 isn't enough.

Up yours Capcom.

Yeah I was telling my sister how all the games are targeting the 12 year olds who beg their parents to buy the new cod every year. Those type of games, but on playstation 1 there was thousands of games I owned that were multiplayer that I could play with my sister, some bugs bunny and taz game, powerangers (just about every 2nd game). PS2 came out with a fair few as well, ratchet and clank even was 2player on ps2.. Nowadays the only multiplayer games I have on PS3 are LBP, UFC, FIFA. FIFA is to hard for her because I'm to good, UFC is to full on for her (I don't even play it anymore, just got it because me and my mate looked at youtube and looked great), we have already finished LBP and after you finish it it's not as fun co-op (even though me and my mate go off on the minigames)..

I don't want to go and buy a whole new console (even though it's priced down ALOT because of the WiiU) just to have some decent games to play, we aren't kids anymore so we don't have all day to play games like we used to, she has uni and I got school. It's just I miss the days of when I'd be able to spend quality time with my sister playing games, even on the PS1-2 the single player games were games that I could sit there with my sister (and dad or whatever) and we'd all sit there and take turns and it'd just be a whole lot of fun, them type of classic games aren't made anymore. Although Jak and Daxter Trilogy came out, which I plan to get as soon as I finish Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning (which will be a while because of school haha).

If I had a brother it'd be another story, I'd play FIFA and (I don't own COD) possibly COD with him as we'd share that male interest in them type of games, but with a sister there are differences, which probably the reason in which I loved the type of games I play now (like RPGs like Kingdom Hearts, Skyrim, them type of rpg, platformer, I don't really know the genre of them).

edit: I know I refer to sister a lot but the same applies for when friends come over, like with my neighbour on PS2 (he had an xbox) there was always a game to play together, Shrek or something (lol) but even if it wasn't multiplayer (Jak 2: Renegade) we would take turns and still have a ball!

edit2: inb4 tl;dr, essay etc.

You have a brother. Wtf you talking about. He just doesn't live in the same house.

Well, I kinda want Nintendo to do well. So if that's true, then it's good.
But with the Wii, you gotta wonder.

Seriously Microsoft, 16 cores?  Do you know how computers work?  6 cores is alot!  And to make things worse, it has a graphics card just a little bit better than the one on the PS3

There is no need for next gen consoles, (except for the Wii because they were behind to start with), with examples of exactly has been said, all they can do is make it that little bit more powerful to suck people in. I mean T.V technology hasn't improved enough for a need of a next gen console, even game developers, they still haven't pushed the PS3 to it's limits (I dunno about xbox) of what it is capable of doing. The only need for a new console is if tvs started having fullUD quality (ultra definition), where the reso is that of crazy amounts like some pc monitors have (2500x1900 or something like that). Or when the tvs become holographic, the only reason they are pushing the next gen out is because whoever comes out with a new console first and markets it and what not will get all the sales (like what happened with the 360), that's the only reason they are pushing this, to gain control of the market and earn extra cash because they are not making anymore with their current consoles as everyone has one.

Wouldn't it be expensive as heck? The reason 360 did well was because it struck a balance between the then $400 PS3 and the Wii. Early on at least. Also it had all the third party devs backing it up.

Depending on how they turn out, I may skip this next gen, and stick with 3DS and play the PS3 games I've missed.

It really depends, if they start making PS4 games and don't make them for PS3 then I may be forced to, but all the games on PS4 should easily work on PS3 because they didn't gain much of a performance boost according to all these rumours.

Do you have any idea how outdated the 360 and PS3 are?  Games could be x4 more advanced it the consoles weren't holding them back.  They are still running on DIrectX 9!  This upgrade isn't just going to be "A few fixes", this is going to be a much needed upgrade (Though I'm still gonna stick with PC because they don't go out of date in just a few years, you can always update them.

Wouldn't it be expensive as heck? The reason 360 did well was because it struck a balance between the then $400 PS3 and the Wii.
It was so expensive because they had to include all the stuff that teh PS2 had also, the PS4 won't have backwards compatability so it should be expensive, but somewhat more affordable.

They're trolling Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft.
Like 'We can do so much better than that Zelda preview they showed' or 'If they don't do something, Apple is gonna outrun them with the iPad' and saying 'We send demos that are too powerful for the consoles to console makers to have them move their asses'.

You contridicted yourself, you said they don't go out of date, but you always said you can update them, so the hardware goes out of date so you have to spend more money.. and it can get expensive because at one point you will eventually have to upgrade everything.

digital rights management, you can probably put 1 and 1 together to figure out about what it's about.
(stop pirating and stuff, so like serial keys and stuff). It's just stopping people who have cracked the game to not be able to play it, I really cannot be bothered getting in lots of detail bu you should understand (google it if you really want)

Yeah I was just generalising it, because all games you need a serial key to authenticate you own it. But yeah, it reminds me of the whole PS3 hacking rant, when hackers hacked it and exploited it and sony's like NO! IT'S OUR CONSOLE, YOUR BOUGHT IT BUT IT'S OURS.

You also can't put it up for resale.  If a game has an online pass, you can never get it used.

That means if a certain game has an online pass, you need to pay full price to buy it.  While that's ok with PC games, if that's the issue with a console game than that's sh*t.

I wish I got the side quests for Colony 6, those are the best when grinding Exp (earliest after Colony 9). Also, (may be a spoiler) most of the Side Quests for Colony 6 aren't available until way later into the game. Not saying how far, but far nonetheless.

Should I start playing the Prototype games, because I know the 2nd one just came out and I got $20 in my PSN account, but I'm not sure what to spend it on? I'm debating whether I should get Skull Girls, Journey, or the original Prototype, help me out? :/

While it is entirely off the current topic, am I the only one who wants to see a Crackdown 3?

Sure Crackdown 2 failed pretty bad, but it set up another sequel that I hope the developers can use to learn from their mistakes.  Or maybe if we are lucky, we can get the same devs from Crackdown 1 (Can't think of their name atm).

Me personally did not like prototype, but everyone else seemed to like it, so it's all personal preference I guess. Get the demo (if there is one) first to test it out?

I was barely able to complete the story of Calamity Trigger.
When I went to Arcade Mode, lowest difficulty, I was raped by the first character. q_q
The one I can play decently is SoulCalibur II. Never tried the others.

I doubt the 720 and PS4 will be much more OP'd, maybe as strong as current high-end PC's. Considering Sony is having financial trouble so even if the 720 is much more powerful, it'll just bite MS in the ass since devs will end up developing for the two consoles that are the closest spec wise for multiplatform games.
Not to mention the increase of already expensive development costs, would turn away devs AND consumers, so MS would try and keep it closer in power to the others. A possible multiplatform SC 6 on all 3 consoles with exclusives characters just like Soul Calibur 2.

And even then, there is still the 3DS which could get a Soul Calibur game like the PSP did and an exclusive character. (Link? SC Broken Destiny got Kratos.)

Again, the specs for all 3 consoles were revealed and the PS4 and 720 are about as powerful high-end PCs, but that's not a surprise, that's what all consoles are like when they come out.  If a game did come out for all all the consoles, the WiiU version would sell poorly because it wouldn't live up to the power of the other versions.  And the Special Characters are different every time.  Link would only be DLC (If you are lucky).

Also, I don't think the Publishers of Soul Caliber want anything to do with Nintendo anymore.

??? Namco Bandai publish for Nintendo just as much as the other companies.
Also I don't know what your talking about released specs, all I've heard is rumors.
Even then, Wii U has a head start like the 360 did, even though it's slightly weaker than the PS3.

I have my expectations set high on Nintendo.
I hope they'll be able to meet them.

And if MS doesn't do something about the quality of their console, even if it has extraordinary specs, many won't get it over the other 2. However, they'll still get the fans for sure. Their advantage is because they're MS and they're American.
They're the only Americans.
But that's also why I think the new Xbox won't have more quality than the last ones.

PS4 and 720 will probably be more powerful, but I don't think it will be much more so that the Wii U will get shafted.
I think the Wii U will be similar to how the PS2 was, slightly weaker but it will still get the games. Power isn't everything either.. look at the original Xbox, it was the slightly more powerful of the three, but it didn't make a difference since many devs preferred to use the other 2 consoles.

Nintendo has always focused on the games rather than the console and they seem to be getting along pretty damn well.

And even though the wii can't even run in HD, it still has incredible graphics sometimes, for example: Mario Galaxy 1/2, A Boy and his Blob, Zelda: Skyward Sword, and more that I can't be bothered to remember.

Gamecube as well, had some of the greatest graphics ever: Zelda: Wind Waker, Mario Sunshine and Viewtiful Joe are all awesome.

Hi Sony, it's Sly Cooper (fan of that game BTW). I just got back from Nintendo's secret hideout with their video game data and I stumbled on a heck of an idea...

Sony doesn't know how flawed this game really is do they?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sBvCgqT1Vwk

Other then being called a complete copy, but this video had me thinking on why Smash was so strong in the first place. The idea of the game shouldn't be disliked because of the similarities, but do the characters really fit in the same world as one another? Family wise really, other then Kratos and a few other characters that have a fan base, would some random plucked out characters really attract anybody?

Yeah... I mean, Fat Princess? Really?

I've been wanting this for a while. But back then, Crash Bandicoot was still hype. XD
It would be a nice addition to the game though, Crash I mean.
It is possible. Games like that are good reasons to bring back old franchises.
I want the game even though the Internet will want it burnt. :P

They're saying it will be better. Taking the formula to another level.
While Sakurai says he wants to get change Smash a bit because 'There's a limit to just widening a game'.
Of course, we don't just want new characters, right?

We'll have to see if All Stars or Smash will be better.

Character-wise however, Nintendo is sure to win. Because most Nintendo characters are cult.

Oh, btw, there are other games like Smash out there, you just don't know them. Sony aren't the first to try the concept.
Like the Jump Stars series. Okay, I say series but there are like 2 games? Jump Super Stars and Jump Ultimate Stars?
And they were never released here which is a shame.

I think I lost hope in gaming when I saw Sony smash brothers... Like it couldn't be any more obvious its a rip-off. Just different HUD styling and bad characters doesn't make it a new game, and I know there are games that are like Smash Brothers but Smash Brothers was first, best, fit the console well, good character choices, it was unique when first released.

I know I sound like I'm ripping on Sony but ever since the PS Move it seems like it's just plain copying the Wii.
They should have made Eye Toy 2, and Little Big Kart Racing seems like a re branded modnation racers.
I miss the PS days where Sony wasn't so competitive that they have to result of copying something and re-branding it.
Little Big Planet isn't Mario. It's just a platformer, not all platformers are Mario knockoffs.
Modnation is a Kart Racer, same as above, it's not copying Mario kart.
But I honestly can't see anything that makes All-Stars really stand out from the competition.
I kinda miss when it was just about games, not copying people, not competition. Just playing **** games.

PSMove is better than the Wii.
LBP Karting IS a rebranding of Modnation.
Both teams from LBP and Modnations are doing it.

I'll have to wait and see for Battle Royale.
I think they can do something decent. Their flaw are with the characters. Fat Princess... c'mon.

But saying Sony aren't any good cause they're 'ripping off' isn't true.
Nintendo created a new way of gaming.
Sure other companies have to adapt or they'll be left behind.
It's like saying Sony, Microsoft, Sega all ripped Nintendo by making controllers with their consoles.
You gotta stop it with that seriously.

All-stars is like exactly like nintendo. And yea I guess its wrong to say ripping off in general, but like All-stars is just... I thought it was a joke.

Sony said themselves that it was like Smash but that they're taking it to a new level.
Sakurai also said that he wanted to change Smash's concept little by little with the new game.

Which is why I think the both will be quite different in the end.

So far the gameplay style has no direct difference other then shoulder buttons. Same button control though and they have multiple attack models that seem like direct copies. The only unique things on this game are the way you beat the opponent (similar to a side feature where you give characters hit points that is also based in Brawl (arguable due to pretty much all games (with fighting and killing) consisting of Hit Points, but the uncanny similarities break this idea due to All Stars mechanics)), the characters (no joking, but some people argue that the All Star models look like Smash Bros model (I call bogus on that though)) and though not confirmed by anyone yet, but no random items currently show up (which is what smashers prayed for, but at least they can be turned off no?).

I personally see no direct change other then the way you take out opponents (one trailer however did show a player losing from falling off the stage) and the super finishers. But nonetheless, this game is a total rip-off, but even I'd like to play it sometime.

Edit:
Er... what I said about items were slightly... Who am I kidding, the game has items. But at least they are different. Plus tons of fighting games have items so I find no problem with that (fanboys differ from what I said).

Other then being called a complete copy, but this video had me thinking on why Smash was so strong in the first place. The idea of the game shouldn't be disliked because of the similarities, but do the characters really fit in the same world as one another? Family wise really, other then Kratos and a few other characters that have a fan base, would some random plucked out characters really attract anybody?

judging by the characters i could see in the preview for the vid, the game has been marketed to the older gamers, you know, the ones that pleayed the original heavy metal, mgs, kh, etc etc, most of which were late 90's early 2000's. it obviously is supposed to be marketed at a younger demographic but has accidentally subbed off onto the older guys. sony hasnt really ever had that solid young demographic drive for their characters that nintendo had. look at their big drivers: kirby, pikachu, link, samus etc. theres a few there that are a little mor mature, but can still be picked up by a 12 year old and think its the best thing since sliced bread.

i cant see any 12 year old having the patience to play trhough MGS these days.....

Samus is like a Female Master Chief to some. However, since it's Nintendo, IT'S A BRIGHT ORANGE SUIT! XD
Link is like any knight. However, since it's Nintendo, IT'S A BRIGHT GREEN TUNIC WITH TIGHTS! :P

I don't know if I could play MGS myself.
I played Twin Snakes on the GameCube but that's it. I really enjoyed it though.
Oh... I played the demo for the one on the 3DS too. But I hated it.

But from what I can tell you enjoy the classics.... Megaman for instance ;) most 12 year olds think they're a gamer if they play cod. Sorry but cod don't count. Actually to prove my point, next time I'm at my cousins ill ask if he knows who solid snake is or samus or link or megaman. He won't know any of them and he calls himself a gamer because he's 4th prestige on blops. Cool story bro

Plus, it would be practical when I rent BDs or listen to my music.

Everyone at my school is like that, except for a few. Most of them say "I'm a gamer, yeah. I stayed up all night playing MW3." I try asking them anything about Nintendo games and they say "Nintendo is for pussies!" Tried asking them about Sly Cooper. Only one knew who he was. I can safely say that faith in my generation is quite literally DEAD.

Our generation is crappy. If you don't play god then your called a f@g at my school. I tend to stay away from Call of Duty, though I saw something that had a good point: Out of CoD's two developers, Treyarch always try and do something different and everyone hates their games, Infinity Ward do the same thing every year, and people love them.

Treyarch is much more revolutionary in their games, I loved their cod points system in BlOps, an I respect them alot more than IW, like a friend of mine said: "mw3 is the best game mod in the world". Treyarch just sometes screws their gameplay mechanics up, that's why I hated BlOps, it felt all sluggish.

Nonetheless, cod doesn't make you a gamer

If all someone plays is cod they're still a gamer. A gamer is just someone who plays a game.
They'd just be a not very diverse gamer. Same thing if someone only played super smash bros.
I'd rather play super smash bros. than cod but to be fair, ssb doesn't have as good online play as cod.
I've played cod before and I personally don't think it's amazing, but it's pretty decent.
Though it is repetitive, and seems to have a generally bad online user base.
Even so, it's still decent.

casual gamers: cod players (that play nothign but cod), and generally play, 1-2 hours a day, sometimes more if theyre crazy aboutt he game, but still havnt ranked up yet, complains their console/platform is a trillion times better than others

gamers: owns, or has owned 2+ consoles/platforms, plays more than just cod, 3-4 hours a day on average, complains their console/platform is a trillion times better than others

veteran gamers: retro games, rts, fps, etc etc, 4-5 hours a day, on average

**** gamers: cod, bf, rts, racing, (i could go on forever here, pretty much any gametype you can think of), 5+ hours a day, on average

elit gamers: owns ps3, 360 and a gaming pc, pretty much a god at everythign they pick up and try to play, possible pro, cares nothign for console war, or pc console war, thinks theyre all good in their own right

There's no downfall of Nintendo as long as there are Mario, Zelda and Metroid games.
And amazing games are still released on the Wii.
Monster Hunter Tri, Xenoblade, The Last Story, etc.

The Wii is only behind in terms of graphics. That's its only flaw. And it's not that important either.
It's just a bit annoying because it doesn't 'look good' on a 40inch and higher.

I pretty much agree with both Sato and Magoo on this. The Wii is great, but could be better if it held up graphic-wise to this generation (which doesn't concern me, I've played Nintendo stuff for longer then I can remember, I know the strengths and weaknesses already and accepts them). Xenoblade is a great game and I think it's nothing like Monster Hunter Tri and they technically came out around the same time (if you wanna compare that). Though I own both and I pre-ordered Last Story last month and I wanna see it on my T.V. already.

If I had to complain about Xenoblade's graphics, it would be the character models (for the humans) and the water textures. At least in Monster Hunter the models were more realistic and you can see into the water without actually diving in. I shamelessly can say the Twilight Princess models looked considerably better. This year and last year for me is all about RPGs. 2008-2010 (I got the Wii rather late) I got into Fighting, Shooters (lost faith in that genre by 2010), Racing and Adventure games.

I still wanna see a full on Console Pokemon Game though, not a Stadium/PBR bore for the next Gen Console.

All day yesterday i was playing n64 and GC, and today I'm playing Company of Heroes. I own a PS3,Xbox,Wii,Ps2,N64,DS,Gameboy Advance(x2), and a Gaming PC. I prefer my Xbox over my Ps3 but I think they are good in their own rights, and none is better than the other. I don't like wii at all, though. I find it as a sign of the downfall of Nintendo, which no one wants to see.
I'm not really categorized into anything.

Your very well rounded. I'm similar, cept I do believe the Xbox is inferior for a few reason, but I don't try to bash that idea into people's heads unless they try to bash their ideas into mine. Everyone has their preference for a reason. No need to try an change someone else PERSONAL preference. Nonetheless, I don't really categorize yself either, but me and you are quite similar from what you wrotr

Fair Enough, I stopped even listening to anything IGN says a LONG time ago.

Ign is paid by companies for their reviews. Paid by rival companies for bad reviews, they are probs the least trustworthy in regards to review.

Yeah, and they don't even try to hide that fact. It could be 'Baby princess happy cake party LULz' and it would probably still get 8/10.

That feel when you spend hours on a Portal 2 map, and people completely ignore you when you share it ;_;
Sorry, I'd probably try it out but I don't have portal 2.
I pretty much agree with both Sato and Magoo on this. The Wii is great, but could be better if it held up graphic-wise to this generation (which doesn't concern me, I've played Nintendo stuff for longer then I can remember, I know the strengths and weaknesses already and accepts them). Xenoblade is a great game and I think it's nothing like Monster Hunter Tri and they technically came out around the same time (if you wanna compare that). Though I own both and I pre-ordered Last Story last month and I wanna see it on my T.V. already.

If I had to complain about Xenoblade's graphics, it would be the character models (for the humans) and the water textures. At least in Monster Hunter the models were more realistic and you can see into the water without actually diving in. I shamelessly can say the Twilight Princess models looked considerably better. This year and last year for me is all about RPGs. 2008-2010 (I got the Wii rather late) I got into Fighting, Shooters (lost faith in that genre by 2010), Racing and Adventure games.

I still wanna see a full on Console Pokemon Game though, not a Stadium/PBR bore for the next Gen Console.
I need to finish twilight princess.
I agree on getting a full pokemon adventure game like XD/Colosseum.
I thought PBR was pretty good though. Of course I'm biased lol.

Well the fact that it was advertised all over their site makes you wonder. You think EA would allow them all those exclusive inside looks and make a freaking character in the game voiced by and based off of Jessica Chobot? Even if they didn't directly pay them, the fact that Jessica Chobot is in the game makes it clear enough EA was fishing for a high score.

Well, when I go to IGN, most comments bash against IGN.
When I go to GameSpot, most comments also bash against IGN.
So my guess is that GameSpot is better.

And yes, I need a huge one cause I need reviews of games other than the latest CoD or FF.

I also want a good e-mail newsletter. IGN's was good until a couple weeks ago...
I have yet to see GameSpot's... Seems like they don't send daily or that mine got lost somewhere.

This is true.
It's still not that solid proof imo. I do get your point,  but I dunno.
Ign's reviews seem to be fairly accurate,  if not opinionated like how ign reviewed xenoblades graphics.
It's not like they're giving "insert good indie game" a "3" and "insert horrible movie video game here" a "10".
Movie games based on MOVIES have more money than INDIE games, but good indie games still get better scores on ign.
Mass Effect 3 is a good game in it's own right based on what I know, and got a fair score.
I'm not doing this to defend ign, just pointing out what I see as the truth.
No offense, but a lot of people on this topic are jumping on the bandwagon opinion really easily.
Aka "any big company like ign's reviews can't be trusted EVER. D:< I HAVE NO REAL PROOF BESIDES GUESSING BUT THAT'S THE TRUTH."
I hope all of you are thinking for yourselves.

That's what I thought too but whenever I read the comments, everyone was bashing on them.
While at GameSpot, the community seems calmer and many say GameSpot is better than IGN.
So, from that, I switched to GS.
Because there's also the fact that reading constructive gamers' comments is nice when making an idea of a game and, on IGN, that's impossible.

After using the xbox version since release, I can safely say that the new controls are perfect. It takes a few mintes to get used to, but afterwards, it feels weird to play on the PC.

No, I am speaking from experience. God Hand 3.0, or Sonic Unleashed where the went out of their way to make the game look bad, and try and pass off a retarded Sonic rant as a 'review'
Also yup, with having Mass Effect 3 pasted all over their site, one of their own staff IN the game, ads, exclusive reveals, and etc all before the review is published, do you really think the writer will have a clean non-biased perception of the game? After all, how would a negative review look surrounded by ads and banners telling people to buy it? EA had IGN wrapped around their finger.
For indie games, they will usually get good reviews simply for being indie, aside from really unique ones like Minecraft, if an Indie dev releases another  decent 'retro' stylized puzzle platformer it'll get most likely an 8.

The reviewers are opinionated. After all reviews are opinions.
I'm not saying ign is the best reviewer site ever. I'm saying there's not enough proof to say they're paid off for their reviews.
It would be obvious if a good game got a bad review, and they'd lose tons of credibility.
I don't know about God Hand since I've never played it, but Sonic Unleashed did have some issues, even though I personally liked it.
Looking at the wii review on IGN (I played it on the wii), the review seems fair enough :
"Sonic Unleashed is half great game and half tedious gimmick. The daytime levels will amaze you for they harken back to the 2D classics and are positively overrun with raw speed, zigzagging pathways, loop- de-loops and more, all of it complemented by responsive controls and good technology. As far as I'm concerned, these stages are so well crafted, in fact, that die-hard Hedgehog fans can probably justify purchasing the title for the sunlit selection alone. Just resign yourself to trudging through the nighttime stages as penance for the daylight ones. "
Yeah, IGN is clearly paid off for ads, but that's different from reviews.
It'd be difficult to argue that Mass Effect 3 didn't deserve a 9.5.
If it didn't deserve a 9.5 that's a different story. 
And I doubt indie developers donate large sums of money for a better review.

Except ME3 is NOT factually a good game. It is an opinion whether others think so or not.
I never said indie devs bribe reviewers.. I said indie games usually get better scored just because it's indie.
There are multiple instances of publishers and developers either threatening gaming media outlets or trying to otherwise influence their coverage. While direct bribery doesn't seem to be the case, publishers hold an immense amount of sway over gaming news outlets, not just because of direct ad money, but because they decide what groups get access to preview copies, special press releases, etc., which in turn determines which sites get the "exclusive scoops" that bring in the hits they count on to make money.
Take a look at the most obvious proof of this.

Quote
Gerstmann was dismissed from his position at GameSpot as Editorial Director on November 28, 2007.[6] Immediately after his termination, rumors circulated proclaiming his dismissal was a result of external pressure from Eidos Interactive the publisher of Kane & Lynch: Dead Men which Gerstmann had previously given a Fair rating, which is relatively undesirable, along with critique.[7] This was at a time when Eidos had been putting heavy advertising money into GameSpot,[7] going as far as transforming the entire website to use a Kane & Lynch theme and background instead of the regular GameSpot layout, regardless of which game or page viewers were seeing. Both GameSpot and parent company CNET stated that his dismissal was unrelated to the negative review, but have never cited any reason why his termination was deserved.[9]

Quote
On March 15, 2012, it was announced that CBS Interactive had acquired the Giant Bomb and Comic Vine websites from Whiskey Media.[15] CBS Interactive is the parent company of CNET, which operates GameSpot. As part of the deal, the non-disparagement agreement between Gerstmann and CNET was nullified, allowing him to finally speak publicly about his termination over four years later. Later that evening on GameSpot's On the Spot web show, GameSpot VP John Davison appeared on camera with Gerstmann, marking Gerstmann's first appearance on the GameSpot web site since November 2007. He explained that the reason for his firing was the result of long-standing tension between the editorial staff and the new marketing staff that had recently been put in place. According to Gerstmann, the new marketing staff in place wasn't familiar with video game journalism or how to deal with annoyed publishers. He revealed that the problems began after publishing the review for Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction that went live on October 23, 2007. The review was written by Aaron Thomas and scored a 7.5 (good). The publisher, Sony Computer Entertainment America, complained to GameSpot over the score and threatened to pull their advertising money. Gerstmann, as Thomas' boss, was "called into a room" to discuss the review. He said the marketing team freaked out over Sony's threats and didn't understand how to handle threats like that. Tension continued between marketing and editorial, coming to a head after Gerstmann published his review for Kane & Lynch: Dead Men on November 13, 2007 and scored it a 6.0 (fair). His frankness of the game's quality led to the publisher, Eidos Interactive, also threatening to pull their advertising money. At the time of the review going live, the GameSpot home page was covered in ads for Kane & Lynch. Gerstmann said he was once again "called into a room" where he was sternly admonished over the review. After over two weeks of even thicker tension between marketing and editorial, Gerstmann was yet again "called into a room" and was informed he was being fired on November 29, 2007 effective immediately. He said they essentially caved to advertiser pressure despite vehemently claiming they didn't just days after the firing.

I haven't heard of IGN doing things like this, so I don't think it's definitely corrupt, But when things like this happen and publishers have such control over big commercial websites it's not unreasonable to be suspicious of big hyped games getting 9's and 10's from them.

From what I've seen, IGN still has fairly accurate reviews, if debatable.
I do see what you mean about the ads, but at the same time I still think it's definitely arguable to give ME3 a 9.5.
And I still don't see enough evidence to say IGN is bribed for reviews, which is what I was arguing.
Not saying that as a counter to your argument.
Anyway, I feel like this is wasting time now for the both of us, and we seem to be arguing about slightly different things anyway.

http://www.gamespot.com/users/masterpinky2000/show_blog_entry.php?topic_id=m-100-25963593&tag=nl.e513
A blog entry on GameSpot.
A guy telling the good and bad points of 3 game reviews websites. GameSpot, IGN and Giant Bomb.

Read if interested.
I agree with this guy (Especially at his apparent love for KOTOR xD).  Though I feel that he could have gone into more detail about each site, especially Giant Bomb.

Yeah...
I'll stay with GameSpot for now myself.
It's true that IGN's scores seem too high. And Giant Bomb is just no good for me.
There's like no j-games but Mario and Final Fantasy. XD
Not saying western games aren't good. Just that I like j-games too. A lot.

It's too bad that Bioshock got postponed. I REALLY WANT IT AS FAST AS POSSIBLE!
But I guess I have to get Bioshock 2 while waiting for it. Still haven't played it...
I loved the first~

Oh, and I saw an article...
http://www.gamespot.com/news/activision-aware-gamers-want-better-looking-call-of-duty-6376787
THIS IS SO DARN STUPID! RIDICULOUS!
I didn't know it was the same engine since MW2? Seriously, Activision is so lame~
Sorry to the fans. Or rather, I feel sorry for the fans. XD

Skip 1, wait for This. (http://www.blackmesasource.com/) It's a full blown remake of Half-Life 1 made completely from scratch. It's been in development since 2005, and apparently it's releasing 'soon' (Dev said so in and interview with RockPaperShotgun last week)

Good plan. I'm playing through HL2 while waiting for Black Mesa to come out. Then I'll start from the beginning with BM, and work my way through 2 and the episodes. Then, when Valve doesn't announce HL3 or episode 3, I'll slap them ALL.

Black Mesa Source?  xD

Even if it is coming out soon, I have a personal grudge against BMS.

EVERY YEAR it wins ModDB's Mod of the Year.  AND IT HASN'T BEEN UPDATED FOR 3 YEARS!  It doesn't deserve it >.<

They give what I think is a pretty valid reason to not give out any new info. They caused too much hype, and when they didn;t live up to the hype, the fans went all berserk, so they're not giving anything until MUCH closer to release.

I played Champions for a while.  But I managed to get banned because of some damn griefer.

I was trying to do the Werewolf questline during a Blood Moon event, but in order to do it, you need to join the werewolf faction, thus entering PVP mode.  And the Werewolf Hunting faction is really overpowered >.<

This one guy kept staling me, not going after anyone but me.  I eventually told him to **** off (remember that the game's chat censors words like that automatically), and I got banned because someone who was there reported me to a moderator....

I always play solo.
It's stupid when you're forced to join PVP. And I remember that quest... The people were kinda nice when I did it though.

Action MMOs man, Action MMOs.
The best battle system in an Action MMO is the one on Vindictus.
Vindictus is made on the Source Engine.
The bad point is Nexon won't fix their fucked servers so lag is omnipresent when playing coop.

My colleague showed me the website GOG.com (Good Old Games), and it's quite interesting. There's a lot of games I know from my childhood. Not exactly an abandonware site, but the prices are very low. And I got to see all the titles that I've known in my childhood ^^.

And I've also heard that they update the games with compatability patches for newer Operating Systems and sometimes they also add their own official mod and call it "Premium Content".  I heard they are actually pretty good.

DIABLO 3: VERDICT
Quote from: Karbo
I really wanted to like this game.. I wanted it to be great because I'm a big Diablo fan.I was kinda in denial at first but the fact is…  this game is quickly becoming boring T_T I am level 60 in A2 inferno and I just feel little incentive to continue at all. Overall, the game feels bland and terribly flawed.
 
It all goes down to two big points I think :
 
The character progression :I rest on my opinion in the previous journal that character building in diablo3 seems incredibly dull.  Everything is automated, there is no feeling whatsoever of having your own unique character with your own build. You don't feel anything when you level up, no feeling of progression, and there is absolutely no lasting consequence for choosing one skill over another.  Once the novelty has worn off,  it makes for a very poor replayability.The difficulty of the game is very artificial as well.  Many of the boss modifiers are feeling tiedious and sometimes simply out of place. Purple arcane gyrotating lasers ? meh >>The inferno enrage timer is a pretty cheesy way to boost up difficulty that make you feeling unfairly punished for not having the right gear. And, in the end, besides HP and big damage boost, monsters doesn't really behave differently for the most part throughout the different level of difficulty. They don't acquire any new attack or tactics and the game mechanic remain about the same. Yet there was so much things to do there. It's one of the area where Diablo 3 could really have easily outshined its predecessor.
 
I had really a lot of fun at level 1 - 40, as I discovered the game, then it started to go progressively downhill. Which lead me to my next and biggest point :
 
The one thing that made Diablo 2 so addictive and so captivating : the treasure hunting is all but gone in diablo3. Items are basically… boring.  You will only look for 2-4 type of stats on every piece of equipment and that's it. there is no requisite to wear a piece, anybody can wear anything and you get the strange impression that, in the end, the shoulder pauldrons you wear are no different than your pair of gloves or your pants.  You no longer have that feeling of excitment you had in Diablo 2 when a special item drops. The "rare" items dropping in Diablo 3 are actually very common but most of the time they are bad and, in order to play in Hell, and moreso in Inferno, you have to go to the auction house to get your gear. Here it's magical : you can get anything infinitely better than your current equipment in like 10 seconds, provided you have the gold of course ( and later dollars, euros or whatever, once Blizzard implement their real money auction house ). It's like Diablo 3 is nothing but a supermarket of items.And the more you progress in the game, the more you get this unpleasant, nagging feeling that the game has actually been build around the AH and not the AH around the game. Blizzard even said that the rate one item is dropped in the game is directly dependent on its availability in the AH. It feels…  very tedious and further decrease the replayability and the feeling of accomplishment, which is core to this type of game.
 
There is a hundred more things I would have to say ( the story, the servers.. ) but I don't want to bash the game further.. it's pointless anyway.So yes Diablo 3 is a very beautiful game, it has the appealing polish of a blizzard product, it's captivating the first time you discover it, but sadly it's soul-less and riddled with terrible design flaws, that make it more look like it's a beta than an actual finished game. It's an okay gaming experience and I had my fun with it but it's still a big disappointment That's my opinion of course, and I know a lot of people are enjoying it.
 
In the end it's probably a good thing though as it it will make me stop spending my free time playing it and use it for more constructive things ( There is a reason I usually stay away from online games, it's that I tend to go all out on them and quickly become addicted  >_>; ). So yeah I guess it's the end of that infernal hiatus. In the end I didn't struggled that much to get my soul back from Diablo haha ^^ ;

Yeah, this years conference was crappy compared to the past two years, buy tomorrow will be the 3DS only conference and my hopes for the Wii U have been slightly lifted since yesterday's Nintendo Direct focusing on the console alone.

Also, when it comes out, I'm totally getting the Wii U pro controller:

Did you watch Nintendo Direct? The online seems pretty robust.

Also the analog stick on the U Pro is good for me, just grab a 360 controller and pretend the stick is where the buttons are, it's not bad.
The ABXY buttons do seem a little far in, but I'll wait till I actually use it.

Anyone would be nervous in this situation.
Sony made it obvious it was direct competition with Smash and it's kind of a rip-off.
He has to try to say it's different without comparing to Smash and without revealing more info than what was already out.
Also, he's just a developer. He may not be at ease in front of a mic and camera.

Anyway, I'll buy PS All Stars. I wanna try it and I'm kinda tired of Brawl.
So it's nice that it's coming soon for that reason. I'll play All Stars until the next Smash comes out. :P

Hey guys, remember when I bought that Russian key for Diablo 3 becuase it was cheaper? Well, the moment my download finished, Blizzard decided to make every key language locked, despite the fact you can normally play in any language on any server with any key from any region.

So, I have Diablo 3, and I can only play in Russian.

I never played Crysis.
Just the kind of expansion since it could actually run on my laptop.
It was decent but there are far better FPS around.
Like Halo CE and 2.

I Feel like explaining this. Humble Brony is a group of bronies who, every time there is a humble bundle, all donate money to a massive donation pool and give it to the bundle.

This year, HumbleBrony and Notch are competing to see who can pay the most. Notch is being quite funny with it, like when HB donated $9000, he donated $9000.1 (IT'S OVER 9000).

Give the demo a go. You can play for, 10 hours I think but it gives you a really good feel for the game. Plus, if you do want to buy, it's (in my currency) £20 quid for the first 3 games. Awesome pricing.

Yeah but the fact that so many people play wow and d3 is there is such a high rate of players and such a laaaarge community. What would you rather play, a mmorpg based around elder scrolls that only 100 people play so there isn't much excitment in it, or wow that has like 1000000 players online at the same time where you can do so many things.

I went to try it out because dearest brother Sakashi went to play it with Linear, but I got bored and quit in a few days.

I tried Vindictus, but those spoiders scared the **** out of me qq

But I haven't tried Dragon's NEst and been meaning to play Elsworld
It's really good for F2P.  It just wasn't worth paying $15 for monthly imo.

Though after you leave the tutorial world, it is boring for the next to planets, so you have to get through that...
Hell Yeah! But I heard that you only get up to level 15 for free, or did they change something after E3?

I don't know.  When it was Pay to Play, I got to Level 21 no problem.

I guess if you got past 15 already, you can keep leveling up if that's what they are doing :P

Same kind of way as in many J-rpgs and VNs.
You see the faces of the characters with text displayed. And there's voice acting.
There's a Story mode that goes on with people talking, cutscenes and fights and the Arcade mode that's just fights.

Yes.
There are different paths to take.
Whether you make a choice over the other and there are minor changes if you finish the opponent in a certain way.

The problem with that is a group would start it but could never finish it due to GameFreak releasing 6th gen, then 7th, etc.
And they'd have to incorporate it.

Actually it's much better than current systems (Which are running off of tech that is almost 10 years old by now), and it's getting higher end ports of alot of games on current consoles and some newer ones.

they cut it cuz it made the ps3 cost more than the wii and 360 combined.


also, ms does suck. 54% failure rate for 360, refusing to fix the issue cuz a 50 cent magnet is too expensive, overheating issues. ._.

They cut out backwards compatibility because since the PS3 is so different from the PS2, it couldn't play PS2 games with the PS3 hardware, so they practically had a PS3 AND a PS2 in the same case.  and they had to be wired to work together properly, so it was so expensive to make back the money spent to produce each one.

The PS3 Slim is the PS3 without the built in PS2, so it was much cheaper and much easier to make (and also a less of a mess on the inside).  It should have been the PS3 Slim to start off, then the PS3 Phat would be available.  Or an extra peripheral that has the hardware needed to play PS2 games.

There are always reasons.
If they make something good for the 720, I won't say it's bad.
If they'd make an OS that would sell under 100$, I wouldn't hate.
If they hired better advertisement agencies, I would probably enjoy it.

Walk down the side of the road.  If you hear a car, jump into the nearest bushes.  Also, avoid any enemy outposts on the map unless you are ready for an ambush (Preferably at night with molotovs/a flamethrower available for a distraction).

And if you can save up the diamonds, get a gillie suit, it's really helpful for staying alive.

You can buy it at the gun shop (In the upgrades section, I think).

And why don't you try driving more often?  You can easily keep your map out then.  Though it's harder to avoid guard camps.

Oh, and remember to turn your headlights off unless you need them.

It's a review of the new Steel Battalion game, it was a great game, but Kinect killed it.  It just reminds me that Kinect is one of the examples of how Microsoft is ruining itself.  Play Station is doing better, but still not by much.

I don't want to deal with the stress of consoles and dumbass publishers.  The PC seems to have the nicer publishers imo.


Oh, and Sleeping Dogs does look really good, I'm hoping that it gets a good PC port.

PC ports are rarely good though. Dx
I personally don't want to deal with the stress of PCs. XD
I only ever bought 2 PC games for myself: Counter Strike Source (I don't even play) and Spore (I got bored).
Yet, I have already 8 PS3 games and around 8 Wii games and more for the DS and 3DS.

The stress of PC: hardware specs, anti-hack/crack, harder to be refunded, multimedia platforms and more.

Wrong. Wrong (Sorta). WRONG.

The Voices are all in English, but every bit of text is Japanese. This patches the ISO and changes the text to English, making it just almost like an English game.

The only thing close to it being in America was Re: Chain of Memories.

It's EA. When they say "Free to Play", they mean either:

You can play up to level X but then have to pay.
You get the first 2 levels but then have to pay
You get the base game, but have to pay A LOT extra for things like items, accessories, in-game shiz, etc (have you SEEN their Play4Free range? It's not free, it's shit!)

If EA released a game, with all content on disc, a full storyline, no DRM, no online pass, then gaming should fix itself. EA have easily been one of the biggest problems with gaming over the past few years.

And I know a LOT of other companies have DRM (FUCK BLIZZARD) but some, like Ubisoft, actually try and at least make a decent game, and not spam the same shit each year.

Example: Assassin's Creed II came out, a bit later they made Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood which had a Majorly improved engine and new gameplay mechanic (calling on other assassins to help). They also added online and a new story. Revelations added a new means of travel, improved on the multiplayer and introduced new characters (Though I will concede that the story sucked. Ending was confusing as well.)

Y'see, I've been interested with a certain game for a while now... I'm sure I've already ranted about it before... But Both games in the series are full of unnecessary blood, unique bosses, great humor, and a bit of perviness, all wrapped around a story that barely makes sense but if beautifully crafted (in my opinion...)
Of course, I only play Nintendo games. "WHAT?!" You may be saying. Well, I'm talking about No More Heroes. Of course, there are many flaws, like the first game's ending not really making sense in the second game, repetitive side-jobs, the annoying bosses and of course: The second game's final boss. It is literally the #1 "fuck you" moment in the series.

Yeah, yell at me if you wish. I don't care what you think about my opinion.

Along the way you meet the love interest "Sylvia/Silvia" ((Idk how to spell it)). She promised that, bluntly, she'll fuck Travis if he gets to rank 1
It's full of blood
And... Nice camera shots! :3

But it's SUCH a good game!

you start out as a guy who loses everything and needs to beat the number one guy to acquire a female

you have to race your way to number 1 starting at 10

along the way you get new cars and customizations

there is carnage and epic camera shots

I'm going to sound weird, in the middle of an argument, and the game is weird, but oh well...

Y'see, I've been interested with a certain game for a while now... I'm sure I've already ranted about it before... But Both games in the series are full of unnecessary blood, unique bosses, great humor, and a bit of perviness, all wrapped around a story that barely makes sense but if beautifully crafted (in my opinion...)
Of course, I only play Nintendo games. "WHAT?!" You may be saying. Well, I'm talking about No More Heroes. Of course, there are many flaws, like the first game's ending not really making sense in the second game, repetitive side-jobs, the annoying bosses and of course: The second game's final boss. It is literally the #1 "fuck you" moment in the series.

Yeah, yell at me if you wish. I don't care what you think about my opinion.

Travis Touchdown is beast though, and fun fact, he's voiced by the same guy who does the voice for the Medic in TF2.

Just so I can join in:

Guild Wars = Epic RPG series that I plan on playing every game in before I even get 2. I happily paid the £20 for all 3 games (Besides Eye of the North)

Viewtiful Joe = Probably the most unique and fun game on the gamecube. Beat the **** out of people in slo-mo. It's epic.

I am proud to announce that I made my first SFM video.  It's a screwed up version of Meet the Engineer.

I would also like to say that I did this with absolutely no tutorials and no knowledge of the program, so I deserve credit for that :P

I'm rendering it, but in a couple hours I'll have it uploaded it and link everyone.

Edit: Screencap of the render window, think of it as a preview:

you can usually resell it and the person would just play offline or something.

They refused to take his license, bank statement, pay stubs, SSN, or anything other than a dead credit card as a valid form of ID because he used his old paypal account. So paypal ringed up steam, said this dude is a fraud, and lost thousands in games because steam sucks and so does paypal.

If you launch it from the files it still uses steam to launch.

It's part of Steam's RDM which I admit, does suck.

You can check the specs of the Graphics Card and Processor.  Just go to your program search bar (Usually on the start menu) and type "dxdiag" and launch.  System Tab should show stuff like RAM and Processor and the Display Tab should show stuff like your Monitor and Video Card.

I spent forever looking for realistic creations and I failed.  But I did find a couple realistic looking dog species though, but they were locked by the author so you can't do anything with them but look at the thumbnail.

Oh, and I found this:

Or he could get speccy and know everything about his comp

I usually don't like to use third party programs to check specs, but I guess he could do that if he wants.

Your actually a DJ :O Kewl :D What kind of music do you make?
1. DJ and Music producer are 2 different things.
He's not a music artist, he's a DJ. Theres a difference. One makes music, the other plays music others make and profits off of others hard work.

He profits off of other people hard work.
2. I both make music and play music, no ones really ever heard any of my songs (except maybe Sabo), I usually scrap everything I make because in my eyes it's not good enough.
Bastion is 75% off on steeeeeaaaamm.
I'd recommend getting it if you don't have it already. Really good game.
I bought Bastion for 3.74 USD, refresh the store and it turns into like $10.something.. so relieved!

The second is the best compared to Fallout 1 and Tactics, although they all are nothing like the third and New Vegas if you haven't noticed yet, so I can't really compare it to the other two, which are both good in different respects.

Portable NES's run on NOAC's or NES on a Chip's. It's like a custom built processor that contains the sound & video chips, and the CPU. As it's custom made, it is usually less reliable, and has less compatibility.

Unless.... You are referring to ones people take apart themselves and build the cases for, but nobody really sells them as they are more for personal use.

CD Projekt deserve more than that. They make epic games, with no DRM, and release older games cheaply, and again without DRM. They are as epic a company as you can get.

FUCK BLIZZARD For even being on there, they deserve no money.

Zynga are a ripoff company, that stole the game Tiny Tower, which was free and made by a team of around 5 people, and released AN EXACT CLONE as a paid app. dicks.

EA, goes without saying, suck.

square enix went to shit when the old CEO retired and got replaced with a guy who ONLY cares about money, not the games. He then outsourced FF14 to china and got called out, then so few people were playing the game it was made F2P until it gets good which will never happen. HE LET FF13 HAPPEN!

How did I spoil it? I just said it ends with a to be continued, no plot, mention of characters or nothing.


Walk straight ahead, fight, walk straight ahead some more, cutscene, walk straight even more, cutscene, walk straight more, boss/eidolon, continue walking straight. The only time you get to explore is a giant field with nothing worth seeing...

90% of the game is a tutorial, no exploration, meh characters with names picked straight out of a dictionary, the lore for 13 isn't as fun as previous cuz of the whole lack of exploration or interaction with people. 13 was basically a long, drawn out movie that couldve been better but didnt quite get thar. 13-2 fixed that stuff from what people say. ._.

Well, the second one is more fun.  It is a little difficult at first though.  I know a somewhat humorous trick that will make the game a little easier.  If you make a Female Character named "Buffy", when you get to The Den, the bartender at the bar when you enter town will give you a few supplies if you do a coupe missions for her and talk to her a few times.  The supplies are an SMG, some ammo, Metal Armor, and a Plasma Grenade.  Might be some more that I forgot, but it's REALLY useful early in game when your only weapon is a spear that will most likely get stolen by a pickpocket at The Den.  Also, get Sulik from Klammath as your first companion.  Give him some heavy armor and a Powerful Melee weapon (Like a sledgehammer), and he is your tank.

You could also get the Restoration Project like I did, but that makes the game more difficult by doing stuff like locking doors to quest locations and adding an annoying nemesis that you encounter randomly that gets stronger with each encounter, but usually runs away when he gets hit and lets his thugs kill you.

Travel is very unforgiving, but it's so much easier once you fix up and buy the car.  Although you will be doing ALOT of traveling before that though...


I'm probably putting you off from the game, but go here (http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Portal:Fallout_2) for anytime you need help.  It's a really fun game if you invest enough time.

I believe that it's actually a reference to a long time member on the old Black Isle forums.  There are lots of references to it's active members in the game actually.  There is an entire random encounter that is supposed to reenact the members of the forum fighting a troll to leave the forum.

Well, the second one is more fun.  It is a little difficult at first though.  I know a somewhat humorous trick that will make the game a little easier.  If you make a Female Character named "Buffy", when you get to The Den, the bartender at the bar when you enter town will give you a few supplies if you do a coupe missions for her and talk to her a few times.  The supplies are an SMG, some ammo, Metal Armor, and a Plasma Grenade.  Might be some more that I forgot, but it's REALLY useful early in game when your only weapon is a spear that will most likely get stolen by a pickpocket at The Den.  Also, get Sulik from Klammath as your first companion.  Give him some heavy armor and a Powerful Melee weapon (Like a sledgehammer), and he is your tank.

You could also get the Restoration Project like I did, but that makes the game more difficult by doing stuff like locking doors to quest locations and adding an annoying nemesis that you encounter randomly that gets stronger with each encounter, but usually runs away when he gets hit and lets his thugs kill you.

Travel is very unforgiving, but it's so much easier once you fix up and buy the car.  Although you will be doing ALOT of traveling before that though...


I'm probably putting you off from the game, but go here (http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Portal:Fallout_2) for anytime you need help.  It's a really fun game if you invest enough time.

Thanks.

And I do have the restoration project (And annoyingly, the installer won't delete from my desktop :() I also have Killap's Unofficial Fallout 2 Patch, Fallout 2 High Resolution Patch and Sfall 2.13. I may have to reinstall though, I keep getting a DDraw error.

Yeah, I'm using the same mods.  Try not to set the res too high, the game's text become a little unreadable on higher resolutions.

And I believe I had the same problem.  Forgot exactly how I fixed it, I think it was because I installed them in the wrong order or something (That or I installed an older version  of the RP by mistake).  Reinstalling should work, I know I did that when I fixed it.

So I was going to get a Requiem for a Capital Wasteland a couple weeks ago for Fallout New Vegas, but my internet was buggy and I was too lazy, so I decided to do it later.

So today I go on The Nexus, and guess what.  It was taken down for copyright.

2. It's not just that I don't like it, it's that the game has almost no differences between sequels other than campaign and a few guns, you'd think that people would stop buying the games because it's the same thing all over again (hell, it's been using the exact same engine since Modern Warfare), but nope GIVE COD ALL OF YOUR MONEY!  I'm mad that people actually pay full for something they already own, just slightly tweaked, and collectively that money ends up being more than what an entire country's economy contains.

People keep buying the game because it is the same. The fans enjoy the formula which is why they continue to buy the games. If you talked to a COD fan they would be able to point out the numerous differences between games while non-fans would see them as the same. It's exactly the same for Pokemon, a fan could tell you 50 differences while somebody else could probably only sight new Pokemon as a difference.

They do not kill Sims but they cause fear in fellow sims and might randomly kiss them or destroy their objects

Yeah, I think they are taking inspiration from Twilight again.  In The Sims 2, Vamprires and Werewolves looked like Vampires and Werewolves (Well the werewolves didn't have tails, but that's besides the point).  Now the vampires are city-dwellers with sparkly skin and Werewolves are regular Sims that grow arm, chest, and leg hair on full moons and flirt with everyone for some reason.

Both are just as important as one another. If the game play sucks, the game just feels like a story book that's only enjoyable for reading. If the story sucks, then the game will become boring even with the game play and people will just blast through the game not caring anymore other then just finishing it fast (just an opinion...).

Also when it comes down to graphics, it really never matters. Sure a pretty looking game with story is cool, but if the game play sucks. Then both redeeming factors fall. If the story is curd, then the game is just a cool looking beat em' up with nothing else going for it. If the graphic sucks but the other two factors are good, then the game is still playable, just not wowing anybody visually. If graphics are bad and one of the two redeeming factors suck (or for sake of argument all elements of a video game), then the game will be accounted for as a failed product.

The only thing that can be replaced (not always mind you, me and or anybody) are the music/voices. Sure a soundtrack is great and a game benefits from beautiful music, songs, themes and voices, but it's easily muted so unless the music is really bad, then the game can forget about music, but I always loved a great soundtrack to be honest.

Hence where I said, "If the story sucks, then the game will become boring even with the game play and people will just blast through the game not caring anymore other then just finishing it fast."

It's the competitive purpose in Pokemon that currently makes it popular really, plus it's just a matter of your opinion. Many people can like or dislike something and one person saying it's terrible is just one person. This same logic follows for people who like it, since one person can say it's incredible, it's still one person nonetheless.

And I really don't know why you chose Pokemon to counter what I said.

The anime keeps Pokemon popular.

Many people give up playing Pokemon around the ages of 9-14 and in order for the franchise to have more than a handful of dedicated fans who have kept on loving the series, they use the Pokemon anime to introduce people to the series. This is why the anime and Ash are so "stupid" according to older fans, because the anime is being used to teach new generations of fans about the fundamentals of Pokemon which we already know.

I guess I must be in denial since I don't think the anime has anything to do with competitive play. The game's popularity would usually be based around how many people like the games. Competitive play is merely one factor I stated and that still doesn't mean the anime is the reason the game sales. And with no way to prove it, you cannot state it as a fact. And my only mistake is how I said competitive has anything to do with the sales, but they do reflect on how many people would purchase the game in general to a specific party of people. Also everybody has their own ideas on what makes it popular. I think the competitive player field is very popular despite what you said, because you're stating your OPINION as a fact which you should just support with reason other then just bluntly saying so. And I do think the anime affects sales too. I never said it didn't.

And when I said competitive play is their market, that's because competitive play existed since the original games. And I honestly think older players would buy the game not only for fun, but to continue that competitive purpose. And saying these game are just for nine year old kids and fourteen year old kids is not remotely a fact and you're just (as well as me) stating an opinion. I openly say I buy Pokemon games because I collect them, but I play them for fun. Competitive battle is merely fun for me that's all I'm trying to point out, but you guys continue to contradict me without evidence.

The only evidence I'm able to provide is that competitive play is a good and strong selling point is that reasons sites like Serebii, Somgon and other major Pokemon sites are so strong and active that older gamers are interested in the game's mechanics and gameplay style. Kids like it due the the friendly atmosphere that the franchise provides and surely some kids will be attracted due to the anime as well, but I still don't see how the anime influences the game greatly due to how they greatly differ. Sure the anime is more so for children, but adults also watch it and surely like it as well. The game may be targeted for kids but we mostly see adults play it too.


That ends my pointless debate I guess. All I can say is that no matter what we say, our ideas will just differ indefinitely.

People new to the series don't go into Gamestop, look at Pokemon Black or White's box and say to themselves "You know what, I'm going to buy this for the competitive play!". Competitive play has not made Pokemon popular as the overwhelming majority of people who play Pokemon, would never know a competitive side to the games existed until doing more research.

I could get a source for me stating the anime is the reason Pokemon stays popular but I thought it would be common knowledge like Magoo stated before. I could go around my local area asking people three questions; "Have you ever bought a Pokemon game?", "Have you ever watched the Pokemon anime?" and "Have you ever played Pokemon competitively?". I know which two of the three questions would be answered with a yes.

Now you're assuming something I never stated. Yes, Pokemon is popular and competitive play (as stated earlier) is one of multiple reasons as to why. And you say the anime is the only reason? Bah... what about advertisement in ads, television commercials, toys, cards. They are just as effective as the anime but in various of different ways nonetheless. And in a Gamestop I go to, not only the managers, but even costumers, whenever they've talked about Pokemon, I would over hear about competitive play (not all the time mind you, but it has come up often) Even in Nintendo World, they have a whole section dedicated to Pokemon and none of it reflects on the anime.

Saying the anime is the only reason is just saying you're set on that one idea. I can point out many reasons otherwise that the anime is just as important as every other factor I had posted. Some people I know never even seen the anime and they have those games so that makes you argument invalid? No because that's a mediocre portion of people with such an opinion.

Bah... what about advertisement in ads, television commercials, toys, cards. They are just as effective as the anime but in various of different ways nonetheless.

Fact: There is no advertisement for Pokemon in Quebec.
However, there is no Pokemon anime in Quebec either. XD

My point was, how could anyone even know that competitive play exists if they are new to the series? Unless they have done enormous amounts of research they wouldn't know it exists so how could it be a reason that Pokemon is popular, if people don't even know about it when they are buying the game? It might entice a few of the already established fans into buying the game, but I don't think competitive battling is as popular as you make it out to be. Nearly every forum I go to the competitive battling section is the most dead.

I never said the Anime is the only thing keeping Pokemon popular but that it was the biggest reason that it's popularity has continued. I'll admit that the cards have helped keep Pokemon's popularity and the toys to a lesser extent I don't think advertising has had much to do with it's popularity either, at least here in Australia because they only Pokemon related thing I have EVER seen promoted through TV ads here was Pokemon Platinum.

Well that pretty much answers your question really. I mean if you look up Pokemon, you're bound to want to know everything about, including other aspects on how to play. But the anime nowadays can be overlooked, since the games are advertised through subliminal messaging (others playing, random name mentioning, etc...) but it can be proven useful for younger kids, which obviously is one good way to get kids in the franchise as you said. I've seen lots of ads on t.v. in the past for Pokemon games though.

It means that the meshes are missing.  Were you using any mods that replaces the meshes or textures of items?

In fact, were the items from a mod?  Sometimes the preview in the inventory uses a different model than the actual model, and occasionally mod authors don't bother making a second model for it.  That's why you see alot of armor mods using Leather or Steel Armor in the armor preview screen.

Though if it was from the base game or Dawnguard and you don't use any mods, Bethesda probably dun goofed and you'll have to wait for a patch.

No. It was some potions, a pickaxe a shiv, a mysterious amulet and a couple other items.

Will this affect my game.

Well it shouldn't.  Test to see if the Pickaxe and the Shiv have working models when you equip them.

Other than the mesh warnings it shouldn't be an issue.

Well after getting The Sims 2 working again, I decided to get Free Time and Apartment Life, the last expansions I don't have (Except for Bon Voyage, but I don't plan on getting that).

I go to Amazon and look for new copies of Free Time first, only people who sold new copies were small companies like book stores and warehouses.  Cheapest price for a new one is $68 (The rest ranged from $80 - $200)!  Used ones were about $15 - $20 for one in good condition, but none of them said anything about including the pamphlet (Which has the Install Key on it), in fact some of them said they didn't have it.

I went to get Apartment Life.  $50 was the cheapest new, like before the others were in the $150 range.  Used ones were the same story as Free Time.


What I learned - Small Companies can't price for ****...

Edit: Turns out it's not just small companies, it's "Featured Merchants"  Alot of people have been complaining about it apparently.  How can you get away with selling a game worth a MAXIMUM of $35 for $180 + $20 shipping?!

So I spent the past three days reinstalling New Vegas and all of my mods for it, now I have to do it all over again >.<


What happened is that I tried installing an overhaul mod, but the installer was buggy so I cancelled it and installed all of my standard mods plus a few others.  Black screen on launch.

So I disabled all the mods and tried again.  Black screen on launch.

So I disabled all the mods and used the standard launcher (I was using a script extender before).  Black screen on launch.

Turns out the installer that was buggy accidentally gutted all of the files with game resources in them, causing the game to crash at launch.

But I must say, besides the lag in-game, I did wish they had so more content for a after game other then a new game plus.

If I were to make my own channel (coz superminebroshd with sabo is kinda hard to manage unless we are together and I always wanna upload video footage but since that channel is for the both of us I can't do solo stuff) would you all subscribe to it? I plan to do stuff away from minecraft for a while, like mini games (random ones) until I get a fair bit of subscribers, then might do a minecraft series later on. What do you guys think? I love playing games but I never find the will power unless I am with someone, and if i'm uploading to youtube and what not it'd be like playing a game with someone next to me watching.

actually, the makers of true crime got most of it done, then quit, and square bought it, finished what little was left, and sold it for hueg munny, so its not really a square enix game. ._.

Yeah, although they did do alot, such as updating the graphics, maybe tweaking the story, adding new features and promotional items, etc.

Still looks like a great game.  I want to get it, but it would kill my Graphics Card...

PS3 man...

Games are so expensive... but money isn't the problem.
I don't have time to play my games... D;
Lollipop Chainsaw, Devil Survivor 2 and Tales of the Abyss rest on my shelf unfinished.
I don't think I'll get another game any time soon.

I don't really feel like investing in an outdated console right now.  And I have an Xbox, but the online sucks and I can't get the internet to connect properly because every piece of the system is more fragile than fine china!  I prefer PC, I just need to update my graphics card...

A PS3 cost less than a graphics card.
And I have a laptop anyway so for me it was the brighter choice. XD
And even though it's outdated, you'll have to wait a couple years still for an updated one that will sell for 1000$...

I could probably get a graphics card x8 better than that in the PS3 for not even double the price, and I already own about a hundred games on my PC, so I don't need to buy a new library...

If you already have a Gaming PC then the only reason I would see anyone purchase a PS3, a Xbox 360 or a Wii would be for the exclusives, but I can see replacing your Graphics Card can get expensive and troublesome.

Avoid alienware like the plague unless you want to spend more than the computer is worth on shipping back and forth to have dell "fiix it" every day.

DELL owns alienware, they make HORRIBLE computers. A new one isnt worth 20 cuz youd end up spending most of your time waiting for dell to fix it as dell uses proprietary parts so you cant do it yourself, and they use cheaply made sweat shot tier parts. and horrible customer service that wont you fix your computer if the warranty will end in about a month or so even if its covered. :x

and building a desktop is easy. pieces wont go where they arent meant to go unless you shove it in there with the force of a thousand suns. it's like legos, just less pieces and bigger parts... :x

I have to agree with Starrk too, I'm using a Dell and I didn't have any problems until I tried to update my drivers.  It's a mess.  I go to get the drivers from the companies that made the components (AMD, Realtek, etc. (btw, Realtek sucks too)) and as I look at just about every tutorial on how to safely update drivers, they all say that Dell computers should use drivers from their sites or else it could cause alot of issues.  Thing is, Dell doesn't update their drivers!  The driver for my graphics card was updated probably last week, but the version on Dell's site was last updated 2 years ago.  I got the new drivers from the AMD site for my Graphics Card Driver and installed it.  Worked alot better, but it causes a bunch of games to crash because of Dell's presets.

TL;DR: Stay the hell away from Dell and any manufacturer they own.

Is it making progress?  If not, cancel the download (should save your progress), and start it again.  Had to do that alot back when I used XBL.

I kinda feel bad for Xbox users, the Cold Stream update has been out for PC for over a year.  And we got to see all the changes they made, they Cold Stream campaign originally had a slow-mo part where cars fell from the sky and a part where you climb down the mast of a sailboat off a bridge, but they removed those parts for whatever reason :-\

Dont get an apartment, it will make your money go away, get a car first, wait a couple years for your insurance rate to go down cuz you are a new male driver, you will pay a HEFTY premium on insurance, so if you pick an apartment, you will be carless for years unless you get a raise, a promotion with a raise, or a better paying jerb, and you will still be taking the bus the entire time.

if you do decide to buy an automocar, stay away from ferds and chrysler stuff as they are a pain to fix cuz ferds put things in weird places making you disassemble a ton of things to reach something small, and chrysler uses weird computer and belt layouts.

get a cheby or japanese car.

Wait, whoa whoa whoa... Julius is the secret boss for Dream Drop Distance? That's kinda... odd to say the least. Does this mean he'll be in III since the other secret bosses have had roles in the game after they first appeared? Sephiroth was in KH1 as a secret boss, then had a role in II, then Terra's Armor was a secret boss in II Final Mix, and he was one of the main characters in BBS. And theeeeeeen Unknown, aka Young Xehanort was a secret boss in BBS and became one of the main antagonists for DDD. Soooooo, what do you guys think?

Who's Julius?

Its from a Disney cartoon where some crazy scientist created Julius (Frankenstein) and transferred Mickey's and Julius' brains and Julius kidnapped minnie in Mickey's body and Mickey had to capture him.

@AdmiralJackler, what secret message? Explain your self. I might have and not realized it.

Motion Plus is flawless and Skyward Sword's controls are perfect.
The Wiimote only is utterly ridiculous though.
But that's Nintendo being Nintendo. They always release some crap and then later have an update or pack that makes it good.

If you don't care, get a desktop, integrated graphics are terrible when you need to upgrade your hardware.

I highly recommend building your own PC.

I was going to, but I got Prototype instead... probably should've went with Journey, Prototype's a good game, but just not my style :L

An idea hatched in my noggin a couple days ago:

Since Kingdom Hearts III won't be the final game in the series, maybe they could make an official MMO for the series! Think about it though, you could create your own Keyblade wielder and customize their Keyblade with different parts, colors and such, and you could even name it! Plus you choose which element you can specialize in (you can still use all of the elements, but the element you choose to specialize in is the most powerful for you):

Space
Wind
Blizzard
Dark
Fire
Water
Thunder
Light

And you can choose which stat your character can specialize in:

Strength
Magic
Defense

And which style you use:

Commander: Enables command styles based on actions used (BBS)

Former: Allows for different Forms to be enabled, only 3 per character (KHII)

Dreamer: Enables Flowmotion and team attacks with your Spirit Partner (KHDDD)

And everyone starts out with a starting Spirit partner and can choose which side your own, Light or Dark.

Anything you guys can add on to this?

Incorrect. Kingdom Hearts 1 and Re: Chain of Memories are both being upgraded to HD, while 358/2days just has it's cutscenes remastered in HD. So we're getting 2 games in one!

The social game looks meh, but I believe it has got some story related stuff in it somewhere.

The final mix versions have English Voice and Japanese text. As the KH1 on 1.5 is Final Mix, then yeah, it'll be English voices.

To be fair, they just haven't "announced" it for NA/EU, they probably will. If not, you can easily navigate the menus by looking at the pictures of whatever item you want or something.

I had about $10 to spend and decided to buy a game on GoG.  Although my internet decided to drop to about 3 kb/s right after I bought it, so I can't download it right now D:

You know what the worst thing about that game is? Freaking teleporters. They send guys on to mess up your ship and set it on fire and such.

And they never seem to use them unless your crew consists mostly of species that are terrible in combat TT_TT

One time my main character that had been the only survivor from when I first started was turned infected by zombie scientists during a boarding mission and the rest of my crew killed him in the shield generator room.  Though he managed to destroy my engines, my weapon systems, and my oxygen recycler first ;_;

I only have games I never finished.

Overlord. Camera controls, and one level where I cant use minions basically. I'm not good without minions so I stopped playing after dying 5 times.

FF13. Forces me to use a team which cannot under any circumstances beat vanilles summon.

Far Cry 2. I cant walk 2 feet without being shot at.

Persona 3 FES. I cant stand to play through P3 a 4rth time, and it starts you out to underpowered if you just play FES.

._. Any gaems fer PS3 you dun want? I'll take them off your hands if you wanna mail them to someone who needs gaems.

After 2 hours of grinding and upgrading every HP up item I had, I finally beat vanilles eidolan.

And then I fought one of those things you can drive after beating it, and it had 1.5 million health. I got it down to 900k, and as I was changing one persons role to rebuff everyone, it had enough time to charge up it's cannon and point blank shoot it at me and killed me. I couldve dodged if the game didnt make me wait 5 minutes while it showed me the paradigm change. I despise this game more and more, but I will finish it someday. ;_;

I finally finished KH:3D on Critical Mode to get the secret ending (long story why I did it like that), and I gotta say, it felt freakin' satisfying knowing that I'd earned it, the last final battles took a lot more strategy and work to complete than the first time I played though (on Proud Mode) but it was definitely worth it in the end. ;D

I don't know if it'll work, but you might be able to get it fixed up.
Nintendo has a service that can fix broken game devices.
My wii actually broke a while ago, and I sent it over to nintendo and got it fixed.
It usually costs money though unless there's a special circumstance.
It might be worth checking out.

If they did any actual coding notch would just steal it and claim it as his own and then ubisoft would have to pay for more lawyers than the mod would be worth to protect their code and then ubisoft would get in trouble with investors because people would assume that notch didn't steal the code and ubisoft is just being mean. :<

I decided to get the Fake Factory mod anyway, since it has character model options, so there might be a version of Alyx that isn't wearing a skimpy outfit.

Although, the main download mirror was in a 19 part series of .rar files that were 200 MB each, and were on a site that had a 20 kb/s maximum download limit that only lets you download a maximum of 100 MB a day.

So I just redownloaded uTorrent and just used the torrent link :P

I beat Halo 4's campaign.
I played most on Heroic, butr I raged on the third-last mission because of a save reset (I turned my xbox off my mistake) and turned the difficulty down to normal.
I don't want to spoil anything, but man that was one of the most emotional endings to a game for me since Pokemon: Mystery dungeon

I would probably get the game if I had a xbox 360.

Apparently you can only earn a certain amount of experience online per day.

*meant experience

But yeah. I've done the math. Tghe xp cap is 150,000 per day. With double xp codes, you can earn 5000 xp at least. That means you can only play 30 games with double xp, and 60 without.

that seems plenty.
I do agree that there should be no cap, 60 games is pretty good though.

A ton of new info was released.

http://imgur.com/a/GsODP

^ The whole 25 page magazine article.

Some features:

  • 3 Protagonists, to create a feeling similar to the episodes of Liberty City (Multiple Stories going on within the main story and different perspectives on Los Santos)
  • A game world bigger than Red Dead Redemption's Mexico/American Border, San Andreas and GTA IV's Liberty City Combined
  • Tons of new features and things to do
  • Story based around heists
  • Detail can range from the clouds in the sky to the sprinklers on lawns.
  • Pedestrians aren't just random people. They have jobs and activites, making the city feel alive.

GameMaker makes things very easy to implement character movement and view management (the feel of having a camera following the player). That's why I love GM, we can make nice games without needing to be experts in physics or even bothering about how to make things feel comfortable.
Great debut, which kind of game are you wanting to do? Labyrinth, puzzle-solver, Zelda-style fighter, Pokemon/Final Fantasy-like RPG?

Yeah, I love how fast you can set things up. You can easily have a character that can move up, down, left and right in under 5 minutes, and a basic game thing like the video above in around half an hour.

I'm also still learning Python on the side, so I'll see what I can do with that.

*Playing The Sims 3*

*Sim taking bath*

*Cutest dog in the world barks at door*

*About to tell sim to let dog in*

*Sim gets distracted and runs outside, wearing only a towel*

*Sim runs towards a bunch of glowing lights that appear in the front yard*

*Flying saucer comes out of nowhere and grabs my sim*

...

*3 hours later, dog runs off and a space ship drops my sim off at house with an alien standing next to him, who then runs off and laughs maniacally*

....

WHAT?!
I never got to meet the dog ;_;

So I got the urge to play Spore again.  I pop it in and go to launch the .exe, but it's missing.  In fact, all of the game files are missing apart from empty folders.  I checked some of my other EA games, same thing.  Turns out TS3 wasn't the only game Origin messed up, it took ALL of my games in the "Electronic Arts" folder in Program Files and deleted the game contents.

I eventually found someone with the same problem as me, and he talked about it on EA Customer Support, look at how 'great' the customer support is: http://forum.ea.com/eaforum/posts/list/8958105.page

I would fix this like I did with TS3 by redownloading it, but Origin doesn't believe that I own Spore, so I can't redownload it.  So it loos like one of my favorite games is broken because of this >.<

Probably would. Microsoft don't seem to understand how big of a profit they could make by porting the remaining Halo's to PC. But I think they won't, considering it's basically their only self made character and they need him to make the Xbox profitable.

Yeah, but they need to realize that people are no longer buying their outdated XBox 360 for Halo 3.

It would be awesome, reliving Halo 3's multiplayer on the PC with dedicated servers.  Or playing co-op on ODST without loading teleports.  Or even playing a fan-made version of Blood Gulch or that train level from Halo 2.

The tokyo career sucks so far. LA career was glorious, although I kind of cheated as I sold my tuner before I finished the tuner part without realizing it so I spent forever in a end game charger with all the upgrades until I realized  my mistake, and then I didnt have to try cuz I had so much money....


Also, saints row will probably never get a sequel. I'm not sure if I care to much cuz SR3 was very boring as it gave you everything right away and you didnt have to work for anything...

THQ ruined/cancelled their only good games in the past two years.  They made Red Faction: Guerilla, which was a good change to the series, then Armageddon which was bad.  After that, they decided that people don't want Red Faction games anymore (And not that the last game was ****), so they buried the franchise.

Then they made Saints Row 3, which was more of a feverish dream than a Saints Row game.

SR4 was in devolpment since SR3s release actually.
They confirmed it, and said there is gonna be aliens, i.e. its going to be even more saints row 3-like then ever.

SR3 sucked, I cant imagine how bad SR4 will be.

While it did have some fun moments, it gets really boring fast cuz it gives you everything right away, no working towards it, no realt satisfaction when you get it, and the weapons are OP as hell. ESPECIALLY the pistols.

So I just realized that half of the main characters in Halo 3: ODST are voiced by actors from Firefly.  I was suspicious of Buck when he once yelled "Why won't you goram sonsofbitches die?!", but I should have noticed that Dutch was Adam Baldwin a long time ago.

There's more to hide behind in FC3 though, and gun customization.

I currently try to pick my enemies off from far away with a sniper, rocket anything large like vehicles or large groups of people, and use a silenced pistol for anyone who gets close. Works pretty well, but I am now saving up for a noob tube and better sniper rifle. I'm just really getting tired of getting shot at every 2 minutes. ._.

You mean the no fire zone? I know that, but I want to know if there's something I could do to stop people from shooting me every few minutes ;_;

Dishonored is a stealth game.

about 50% of the time in Far Cry 3 I walk in with a LMG, and say 'LOOK AT THIS GUN, ITS THE LAST THING YOUR PIRATES WILL SEEEEEE' and they all die.
Far Cry 3 isn't easy, yes. But it hardly relies on stealth tactics only.

It's really annoying though. You have to kill a bunch of people to get to one person, and then half of the achievements are "Don't get seen in one level." Or "Don't get seen in the whole game" or my personal favorite "Complete the game without killing anyone." Kudos to the man or woman who gets that achievement.

Is that really a criticism? Most games, not just modern ones, tend to have a boss with goons.
Mario
Grand Theft Auto
Zelda
Assassin's Creed
Borderlands.

I have to give my 2012 Game Of The Year to Far Cry 3. With Max Payne 3 as a close tie. Far Cry & Max Payne both got me so engaged my heart was pumping, and it was so much fun. True fun. Something which is a rare gem in modern games.

Far Cry 3 is one of those games that creates moments to talk about and the gameplay is really intense and crazy, I didn't even do anything stealthy most of it.
I loved the character designs also, fantastic and the story was pretty great too.

With the achievements thing, why would you go for achievements on your first playthrough? Yea those achievements sound bad and they sound limiting, so why do them if they are limiting.
Your not enjoying the game, your trying to get achievements.

Just fast travel. The way the game is set up is so you spend the first half accumulating all the upgrades, becoming a bad ass, and then the second half you can actually use everything you worked for, where every other game, by the time you unlock everything, the game is over and you have nothing to use your new found powers on.

If you plan your trips to new missions around hunting, it makes it easier to collect everything, cuz the animals tend to be on the way to missions.

Though if you really dislike it, you could always try FC2~

You do get rewarded for stealth though, like triple EXP for forts if you go undetected, and a lot of the hunt/pirate assassinations also reward stealth because you dont get shot up as much.


Isn't there a difficulty setting too?

Those achievements are in Deus Ex HR too. It adds an extra level of challenge to the game as most people will just run and gun and expect achievements like in cod or any ea/activision game...

I know you get rewarded for stealth, but my point is the game goes fine without it. It's not necessary to do stealth :V.
And your right with that first bit. Sure it took me a while to get dem upgrades, but in the end, it was so worth it.
Plus the hunting was fun anyways.

I was referring to Dishonored when I talked about stealth. In Dishonored, It's not a boss though. They don't even have different mechanics then their guards. They attack, die in two-three hits, if you're smart.  

As for Far Cry 3, I just can't get into it. I like coop, haven't tried multiplayer yet. But the campaign just seems way to complicated. Want another gun? To bad, go find a pig skin or deer skin. Want more money? Too bad, go find deer skin. Want more syringes to keep yourself alive? Too bad. Go kill an animal.

In other news.
Ps2 is done.
They stopped making it.
Almost 13 years old, and its done production.

Ps2 seems timeless, it should have never stopped production.
Despite how modern it is, it goes down in my book as my favorite video game console.

No, RARE hunts, which require a weapon that they provide you at the location that you need to slaughter the animal with to get the exp and stuffs.

You need to be in the blue portion on your mini map to find whatever it tells you to find, also, after you complete the first few missions, it becomes a lot easier to go hunt animals because some areas have more animals than others, the beginning missions are just there to teach you how to do stuff and then you get to do your own thing.

Look on your map, find whatever one you need and go there and look around, if you cant find any, try a different spot. It aint hard.

Also, I still fail to see any difference between hunting to get supplies and doing odd jobs for more money to get the same result...

Glorious. I haven't had this much fun in YEARS! It's the FF12/KH of the PS3 for me. The colors are so vibrant and beautiful, the hunting is fun, and I even took over 2 forts with no alarms triggered, and 1 without being detected, and that one I used only knife takedowns, and one sniper shot to kill the last guy. I just finished finding shrooms for that drug guy and it's so my game of the year. I lurv it man, so worth the 50 bucks I spent on it.

I'm prolly going to spend tomorrow hunting and finding radio towers for moar free gunz, cuz all I got right now is an F1 with no attachments (no munny) and an SVD with no attachments, and limited ammo.

I need to find some durr and those tipur things.

I'm trading in GTAiv and liberty city stories, GT5, FF13, and using my coupon for some money off to get it for as cheap as possibru, I hope they will have some trade in deal so I can get just a bit more for them.

I need GTAV Dx

Ive got some issues with Skyrim...

First one is really messed up. However, I haven't done anything about it for a while. I didn't go to the Greybeards until I was at least level 20. Now, I'm level 50. Whenever I talk to Arngeir, he goes through the regular dialogue, then he tells me to learn "Ro" from Einarth. However, Einarth doesn't appear. Actually, he still exists; he is still roaming the temple as if it's any other day. He just won't do what he is supposed to. "Ro" appears on the floor without him, though. Then, Arngeir says to learn the understanding of the WoP from Einarth. Einarth still won't do anything, and I can't receive the knowledge. Because of that, I can't do anything more on the quest.

Next, issues with the Imperials. I let this sit for a little while as well. I've won the first hold for the Imperials, but now, I'm stuck. Rikke wants me to blackmail the Jarl of Riften's steward, but no map marker appears for the quest. If I talk to the steward, nothing comes up about blackmailing her.

Lastly, any new mod I've tried to install in the last few days won't work, even if they don't require any updates to Skyrim. The ones I really want to use are Warchief Armor and Hoth the Follower. Skyrim crashes at the Bethesda logo if I have the former loaded, and Hoth won't appear where he is supposed to if I have the latter loaded.

Before I could respond he sent me seven gifts, then ran over to a bed and wanted unprotected sex. I grabbed my mic and said "I'm a guy." I've never seen a person leave a game so quickly in my life.

And half of the mods I used before require Dawnguard for their new versions because they have like one crossbow added to them, so I should probably buy that before the Steam Winter Sale ends.

So I found out the problem was with Sky UI, it crashed whenever I opened the Spell Menu, so I uninstalled it and made a clean save (because this has happened before, and this fixed it).  But when I go to reinstall, I realize that I accidentally deleted it, and now I need to wait to redownload it because the Nexus servers are full and the game is unplayable without it.

The walking dead game has very little little to do with the show, and has way better writing and less gaping plot holes, only something like 2 characters from the show are in the game.

There is a game coming out based on the show I think. :u

Far Cry 2 would do you well since there is no hunting and everything is purchased with diamonds you earn by doing missions and such.

The final level in DEHR was so disappointing. The entire game I was struggling to find ammo, then suddenly, why cant I hold all this ammo and gunz, and then the end itself annoyed me because it relies on you playing the first game to understand everything.

Who's the second boss? Invisibitch? Just stand next to the generator things on the wall and esplode them when she comes near them, she will be vulnerable for a few seconds, and there's lockers filled to the brim with weapons and ammo all around you as well.

It also helps having the xray vision mawd.

I didn't notice the generators, I knew that the computer was trying to tell me something, but I couldn't hear or read the subtitles because I was being chased by an invisible dominatrix.
They were?  Who the ****'s idea was that?!
Yeah, when they blow up, they shock the water around them, and stun the chick, who loses her invisibility powers for a few seconds, and you can attack her while she's rebooting.

Yeah, that's why they seem so out of place in a game meant to be stealthy, and it's also why you can't take them out peacefully.

The CEO who took over Square Enix a few years ago stopped caring about maiking good games and only cared about making profits, so he started buying up games and just shoveling out crap stuff as best he could, and outsourcing work on games to others for cheap, but then the whole FF14 MMO thing happened and Square stock dropped so he had to start trying to fix his mistakes, which he hasn't been doing that well if you look at things like hitman or anything else they've released recently. >_>

Any game with that style of gameplay bores the hell out of me. Diablo 2 sucked and looked horrible even for it's time, torchlight 1 was slow and not at all interesting, Diablo 3 got shitty reviews due to the fact it was nothing more than a money grabber.

That, or anything that has a decent graphics card that isn't an Alienware, anything else dell, or toshiba. I'm only mentioning these brands because I've owned a Dell, which sucked and I'm on a Toshiba laptop right now which plays minecraft at 1-3fps while my friends 7 year old laptop that's missing it's whole damn keyboard can play it at 50.

The gaming toshiba laptops are pretty good, but the normal ones are ether going to outlast you, or will break right after your warranty ends.

Also, thats unfair to toshiba as you didnt list the specs, and the toshiba could very well have been the cheap gacebook machine while your friends laptop may have been the ihgher end GAMAN one of its time. ._.

HP is also as bad as dell, but supposedly the customer support is good, though they have been moving that to india and it's been getting worse and worse.

Digital storm makes great gaming rigs and laptops and they come with lifetime customer support, and they get good reviews from pretty much everyone.

Thinkpads are my fave cuz the good ones have a gutter system in the keyboard so spilled drinks just pour out the bottom and dont screw up your laptop. <3

Hey, I asked for a gaming pc so I could get Team Fortress 2 and Skyrim so I could download mods. I didn't want a Mac. I told my mom earlier today that the Mac can't run games, so she said something about getting a cheap gaming computer and something about tax refund or something in February

But you don't just 'get' a cheap gaming computer.
If you want it cheap you have to build it.
There is no such thing as a cheap pre-built gaming PC, the are usually overpriced because they charge you for brand name and building it.
Especially something like Skyrim, which if you want a lot of mods, needs a powerful PC.
You have to look into these things or then your going to waste your money, think its good for a few weeks, then realize you could have gotten something much better.
http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/build-balanced-platform,2469.html

Or you could ask here. I don't know much about parts, but I think Sato and Daniel do.
I know AMD and Nvidia G-cards tend to be some of the best.
And I know from experience "buying" your way into gaming PCs isn't that great.
I paid $1500 for my computer, my freind has $500 custom-built PC that preforms 50% better.


Title: Re: Gaming Discussion [ToT of Gaming]
Post by: Chaos on January 06, 2013, 06:16:13 pm
You need to know what you're doing when you're trying to build a budget gaming PC that's decent, or else it'll be crap.
Another thing to note, is that it's best to buy on dedicated PC websites, or niche stores. They tend to have better stuff at lower prices.
Sometimes website will even have stores at their warehouses where you can go and buy stuff directly.
Like my dad was a PC tech and my brother has his own gaming PC, so they helped me build my starter PC for around 200$ and it could run games at low-medium settings fine before I upgraded it.
You really need to know you're stuff though and a little bit of luck if your trying to build it on the cheap, so you shouldn't expect to build one for that low of a cost. (Well it's also partly because my dad has quite a bit of PC stuff in the garage so I didn't need to buy a monitor, keyboard, mouse and a few other things.)

I heard the Nvidia drivers have been having problems as of late, and the AMD/ATI is best for a budget gaming rig, and they are cheap and get comparable performance, and AMD usually gives free upgrades for anything that comes DoA or needs to be RMA'd.

I would personally only splurge on a Western Digital HDD when making a gaman rig, cuz seagates love to fail after you transfer all your data to them, and western digital has been spending a lot of money on R/D to make them more reliable at higher capacities.

There are lockers around the room FILLED with WEAPONS AND AMMO, just drop all your pacifist weapons at the start and run around opening the lockers and taking all the weapons, and if you listen to the computer thing, she tells you when you are about to be attacked, and you can see her coming at you as well. She isn't hard at all, even for a pacifist run. There's even mines you can drop all around you to injure her.

Also, it's definitely the kind of thing you'd need to know what all the buttons do before you play.

Not really, I picked it up on my own quite easily.

And yeah, high-res backgrounds + Serenity mod is complete win ^_^
But it always depresses me when the inevitable destruction of my ship comes and I have to watch Serenity drift into pieces ;_;

I'm not using high-res backgrounds anymore, as soon as I posted I was, I found one that replaces all the background with WAAAYYY nicer ones. I think it's just called the "Better backgrounds mod" or something.

These are games I'd highly recommend:
-Radiant Historia (Great story, time travel mechanic (was compared to chrono trigger), and amazing battle system)
-Ghost Trick (Great story, amazing characters, great animation, interesting concept, thoroughly entertaining)
-Mario and Luigi: Bowsers Inside Story (humorous, active battle system, lots of charm)
-Pokemon Conquest (haven't played but I heard it was really good)
-Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon (also haven't played but heard it was really good)

New special infected wouldn't be possible in the current game because it would break the balance that the game has.  And I believe the way they coded it wouldn't allow it.  A new game would be nice, but there's nothing wrong with the current one.

And for your other wants:

I agree with Starrk. I got bored of Left 4 Dead because it for repetitive and felt samey each time I played it.
No new content in the whole time I played it, and downloading maps and stuff isn't that great because there is only 1 good one out of the 100 bad ones.

Yeah, games need DLC or something every now and again to keep it interesting, otherwise it gets SO BORING and people stop playing it.

And a lot of people don't want to mess around with modding their games because as daniel has shown us, some can break your game. :\

Online is bad, it runs fine but the mic quality is really bad for some reason [his mic sounds way better in RDR or COD]
Co-Op local is actually fun.

He also showed me shadow of the colossus.

Well games nowadays make you install them to the HDD to cut down on loading times, where as previous Gen you had no HDD to install them too. ._.

The Metal Gear PS3 remastered one cuts a lot of content from what Metal Gear fans are saying. SO it's good if you are getting started in the Metal Gear universe but otherwise not worth it if you are a fan already. :c

Also, if you want to play P3, get P3FES, that way you dont have to play 3 again to play FES, cuz if you try to play just FES, it starts you off horrendously underpowered and underleveled. :\

And P3P has a female protagonist and her Bonds change because of it, so it's somewhat different.

What? Suddenly it gets complicated.
In person games, much like pokemon, your personas have "types", when you become friends with people, you create bonds, which power up your personas and give bonuses.

In P3P, because you can be a girl, the people whom you forge bonds with change based on your characters gender, so your interactions and side stories change a little bit. You also get to control your side characters instead of them just being controlled by the AI.

In FES, it comes with Persona 3 (it's a PS2 title on PSN) it takes place after Persona 3, if you choose to just play the FES story, you start off very under powered, if you play through p3 then do FES, you can carry your characters level and personas and shiz to FES and enjoy it, it's just I played p3p like 4 times and I can't bring myself to play p3 again to play FES. ;_;

Why don't you try taking a closer look at the level up system.  You might change your mind...

Don't try to get Starrk to get too deep in a game.

I said return, not trade in. You can return any game in 30 days or less. I knew a guy who abused that system and would buy a game, beat it in a week, and return for a different game. He basically used gamestop as a video game rental store but with a one time fee and unlimited exchanges.

There's this game-trade shop nearby, and I could spend the gift card on a sort of rare game that the place wouldn't normally have, or trade in a GameCube game, then use the money for Amazon.

No it's just an RPG, you do get to customize your character though.

But Far Cry 3 is awesome q_q

Yeah hahah, me and Sabo are going through all the games in chronological order, we are through Birth By Sleep and are now playing through KH1 (hardest mode and all that). We are playing it on computer with an emulator (for convenience so I dont have to take my ps2 to his house/his to mine every time we want to play, because we both only have 1 tv in our room..).

Please actually read it before you try and complain. It's literally just for Game pad and MiiVerse compatibility. You can still use the regular ones without paying again...

In unrelated news, I'm considering selling my xbox and buying a PS3 because PS3 actually has exclusives that aren't halo. Upside is I get PS+ and a lot of new games (Ni No Kuni, Kingdom hearts 1.5, etc) downside is I lose access to playing any halo game besides 1 and 2, and all my friends are on Xbox, so I wouldn't be able to play with them.

And I can't just buy one separately as I'm saving up for a PC...

Take this into consideration.
I had the exact same situation and I regret buying my ps3.
Ps3 has exclusives but no friends, xbox didn't have exclusives but has freinds.

If you like Nintendo you don't need a ps3, we all know nintendo has the best exclusives of any console.

the exclusives he listed are single player though, no friends needed.

@sato you could buy a used ps3 and make it cheaper by trading in all your unwanted xbox games to amazon, that way you can have you halo, and the ps3 wont cut into pc budget by a whole lot.

also, i loved linux and ps3 before they were cool~ >:3

I almost wound up with no persona over level 20 trying to fuse my way to alice today, and my King Frost wound up costing me 113k cuz I spent so much time at the arcade his stats were almost maxed out! I had to grind for hours to get that kind of money to buy him back! Dx

He was OK. Had some good skillz, and didnt share weaknesses with anyone else on my team.

In P3, there's an arcade where if you play games, it boosts a stat on your Persona, I use this to cheat my way to powerful instead of grinding for days, I just play games, and my persona become overpowered as balls because of it, though it only raises Attack, magic, or agility, it's still nice to be able to wreck anyone while being under leveled.

In my P3P version, my thanatos and Messiah have maxed stats, so it really doesn't matter to much, I just liek thanatos more, he's epic! :3

I will have to grind for days though, as I need to complete a couple more fusion quests to be able to make a thanatos, and I aint strong enough for the persona needed to make him q_q

Plus, DS is better than DS2. Even though DS2 is amazing also.

The battles are good. Sometimes you gotta grind to level up or to get enough money for the demon auction to fuse better demons.
The story is great and your choices affect the ending.
The critics named it best RPG of its year.

The story was very meh, the persona mechanics/auction thing was forgettable, and the battle system was more RTS than RPG. Get Persona! D:


Thanatos is the best if you like Physical, almost everything near the the end of the game resists Phys though. :L
Bro, I beat Persona 3 Portable like 4 times, I know how this game works.

And as I said earlier, thanks to the arcade, it really doesn't matter which persona I use, there stats will all be maxed out anyway, and I can get almost any skill with the skill cards/fusion, so I might as well go with the coolest looking one. >_>



I got alice today, but I couldn't use her as she didn't have high enough stats to be comparable to frost king, and I needed to keep walking through certain floors looking for an enemy for a quest, which took 4 hours because the first one I came across didn't drop the thing I needed, and the second one didn't show up for hours! Dx


I now have one moar boss shadow before I finish the Death social link and can fuse up thanatos, so soon I will have my precious! >:3

They're so many. Depends on what you have already.
Off the top of my head.
Platformers:
Yoshi's Island
Alice in Wonderland

RPG:

Radiant Historia
Etrian Odyssey III


I'm gonna try the rest of these in a bit, pretty much finished SMT: DS2, and damn...

These are games I'd highly recommend:
-Radiant Historia (Great story, time travel mechanic (was compared to chrono trigger), and amazing battle system)
-Ghost Trick (Great story, amazing characters, great animation, interesting concept, thoroughly entertaining)
-Mario and Luigi: Bowsers Inside Story (humorous, active battle system, lots of charm)
-Pokemon Conquest (haven't played but I heard it was really good)
-Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon (also haven't played but heard it was really good)


Beat Conquest and own it, great game I must say. Fire Emblem also caught my eye. x)

Yea, but I found out GTA IV's old update, 1.0.4.0, you gain 20 fps because they added some BS in 1.0.7.0 that changes the way shadows work.

FFv13 is still in development because they are making it the most realistic game evar, they are getting rid of cut scenes and replacing them with active scenes like in half life where you still control your character during the "cut scene", and because of this, it takes a long time, and also, because of this, they can't work on KH3 until FFv13 is finished, cuz guess which dev team/game writer is working on FFv13? THE KH DEVS! Square enix isn't to blame, it's tetsuya normura, he's holding everyone up trying to make a game his devs can't deliver, and it's going to end badly.

Also, type o wont get translated because there isn't enough demand for it, but they do wish there was enough so they could.

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
Halo 4
Halo: CE Anniversary
Battlefield: Bad Company
Assassin's Creed
Assassin's Creed 2 (Maybe)

I know that most of them are FPS's, but still, should be fun for a while. Wish me luck.

whats your bandwidth cap breh?
It would make more sense to release it digitally, it'll still cost money yeah, but I would think they would make money back considering it Final Fantasy and the Vita audience is hungry for games. (Especially RPG's, look at P4G's numbers.)

GTA V's release date is now confirmed to be
9.17.2013

September 17th, 2013.

Not spring 2013.
That Kinda ruined my mood, since It's the only game I was looking forward to this year.

I actually did, forgot which one.  Didn't get far because I saw a pokemon I really wanted and let it get away, and could never get over it :\

What pokemon was it? if it was the 3rd one and felinear then you can get that later on in the game. It is suppose to flee.

They would have to recode it and translate it, which means hiring voice actors, and hiring a dev team, which would make them lose money as there isn't demand for type o in english.

Fo realz. I beat the bosses so fast cuz I hit so hard, though the mini bosses going up tartarus were harder, I was able to 1 hit a couple of them.

Nyx is going to be a pain though cuz I don't do healing, and yukari won't use the team heal spell and only heals one person at a time unless we all have like 2HP left, which has caused a lot of deaths so far. :<

Worth it if you don't already got an Xbox.
Not worth it if you already got one.

Just realised, couple of times.

You're barely going to use either, I wouldn't bother.

Honest opinion with no bias, I say don't buy either if your not already fans of MS or Sony, maybe get a WiiU

Xbox is much cheaper though, you can probably get a used Pro for like $110 if money is the problem.

Most of what Starrk or Mag says is biased towards PS3, I'm thought of as Bias to Xbox, but I don't even like xbox anymore, PC is master race, only keep xbox cuz friends. Ps3 cuz mom.

maybe get more PC stuff with your giftcard if they are available in the stores rather than downloaded.

She said she will only use it a couple of times.
People have different opinions on different games.

I prefer multilayer games these days and flat out Ps3 is empty to me. Nobody I know plays it.
They all play Madden or COD, or they don't play at all. They all have lives and don't play.

If an exclusive comes out for ps3 they play it for 2 days when its released and never again.
My Ps3 is lonely and ruins the system. Nobody to play with, and I don't have the money to invest in single player games because I'd rather use that money on PC stuff.
And when I do play my Ps3 it does one of these things.
- Freeze
- Crash
- Lag Out
- Lag in Multiplayer
- Or some other BS

Say what you want but this is my honest experience with the Ps3 thus far and I'm disappointing. I'm not an Xbox fanboy, I only prefer my xbox because I didn't have these problems.
People's xboxs crash all the time, Mine only did it once, and I just moved the power cord and it worked again. My xbox never freezes or anything.
And on Xbox there is always someone to play with because more than 5 people own it in my schools, and more than 5 people use it at my school.
Even the people who actually used ps3 constantly are switching over to Xbox because its such a loner boner console for them too.

You guys can be biased all you want but so far 'in the long run' Sony has stole my money [off my credit card] , and my ps3 has been a horrible, lonely and frustrating experience.

As much as I want to like the Ps3, it doesn't let me.
That is why I plan to just emulate Shadow Of The Colossus on my PC and sell my Ps3. I plan to have this done soon.

Tl;Dr  I want like my ps3, but it doesn't want me to like it. I have had a horribad experience with it and am in serious dissapoint son. Reasons above^

Sounds like you need to reinstall your firmware. >_>


And with all the glorious exclusives the PS3 has, she would get more and more use out of it the more she looked up games for it, so even though she would buy it for one game, she would find more and more. :u

Glad I have a PS3. ;P

Also, today I went to COSTCO. And I got 3 games for under 60$.
Grand Theft Auto IV
Grand Theft Auto Episodes from Liberty City
Red Dead Redemption
All for my PS3, all for 19$, all I wanted but didn't wanna spend 60$ on each.

You know halo multiplayer doesn't work like
team vs team
or 1v1
or actually shooting each other for points, right?
that only applies to like extremely **** people or people who don't know how to have fun with Halo.

Theres this thing called custom games, and people make stuff like

Jenga, Run Over The Strippers, Saw, Fat Kid, Ghostbusters, Predator, etc.

Jenga is like, non-infected [randomly chosen] stand on some sort of destructible structure. And the infected launch objects at this structure, last man standing wins.

Run over the strips [tons of names] is 1 person is the stripper and he has to avoid getting ran over by other players. He has infite grenades, if he kills somebody they join him.

Saw is a game where you run through a map and the map is actually trying to kill you, with traps, while one slow guy [randomly selected] chases you.

Ghostbusters is 1 person is a ghostbuster, rest are ghosts. Ghosts can jump really high, run really fast but do no damage, they can only **** with the ghostbuster. The Buster has to 'bust' all the ghosts, if your busted then you become a ghostbuster with him. Game goes till everyone is gone or time limit is reached.

Predator is like everyone has a time limit to avoid this one guy who is invisible but has a spartan laser and energy sword.

Hide and Seek is as the name says.

These are just some of the many fan-made gametypes for Halo 3. No these aren't "mods" these where made with the default Halo 3 options and stuff for gamemodes, just tweaked a little or alot.

It's really what makes Halo 3 the best Halo, and I say you should at least try playing with us first.
That is if Halo 3 PC is real.

This is what got me into gaming, without this I wouldn't be the gamer I am today. I strongly urge you to try it, and there are no drawbacks, I don't even care if you don't talk to us, just check it out.

Well the reason Halo 2 only worked for Vista was because it used DirectX 10, which only Vista, 7, and 8 have (Although 7 and 8 have DirectX 11, it runs very similarly to 10).  Windows 8 doesn't have any new systems like that as far as I know.

I can't wait to see how badly nintendo loses to the PS4/720 when they go on sale for once.  Nintendo will either ditch the WiiU and try a new system or try more gimmicks and go bankrupt.

Wii was the cheapest console so anyone could afford it, it was family friendly, and it got people exercising.

The WiiU is none of those things, and **** gamers don't want it because it's using old gen hardware, expensive, and the tablet is bawlz.

Nintendo will be facing serious finacial difficulties thanks to the WiiU.


It would be in good hands with Sony.
Not only would it look awesome, it wouldn't be used to showcase all the gimmicks Nintendo uses and would actually be about good gameplay, and they would totally add way more content with it. 10/10 would buy~

The move was just to show off how much better they are at making Wii motes than Nintendo is.

No one actually bought one.

They won't be making enough profits from the WiiU to stay the way they are unless price cuts happen. Again, this is what happened to the PS3, it came out, was too expensive, so very few sold until they ahd a price cut, but by then it was too late and people moved to the cheap wii or 360.

No one is the demographic they were looking for. The WiiU is an identity crisis in console form.

the wii u isnt that bad. have you played on one? its extremely handy for families with young children. which is EXACTLY the target audience. the tablet is pretty innovative int he fact that you virtually have a "picture in picture" functionality; your 8 year old wants to play some mario (although i hate the fact that theyve completely cartoonised it and made it shitty [ive played it so.... thats my review]) but you want to watch the latest episode of doctor Phil. simply load up the wii u and run the display throught he tablet. you keep your 8 year olds mouth shut and keep them happy, and you can still watch your succulent mustache.

theyre going to do very well, and honestly anyone who thinks that nintendo are trying to appeal to "hardcore" gamers, is ignorant. for the passed 15 odd years they havnt been appealing to this demographic with amazing results. why fix what aint broke?

Until the kid breaks the screen and you can no longer play games until Nintendo feels like sending you a new one, and in the mean time you have an upset child and upset parent to deal with because they have a 400 dollar paper weight.

Not to mention the screen doesn't fit well in childrens hands, and can tire them out, and the battery life is bawlz. It isn't good for anything except netflix, and phones already have you covered on that front.

No one needs that functionality anymore, TV's are a dime a dozen, this isn't the 90's where you were lucky to have 1 TV.


Nintendo THEMSELVES states the WiiU is aimed at getting their hardcore gamer market back, this isn't some speculation, it came from Nintendo, and they are failing miserably.


Nintendo is going the drain and will soon be a fondly remembered relic of our past, as Sony will buy them out and make everything better than ever.

the way i see it, people that are really passionate about hating one particular console, for wahtever reason, hardware etc etc. i dont really refer to them as **** gamers. ive had this conversation with one of my old friends who is one of those people who say "pc master race" and it constantly ends in me calling him a  fudgein idiot. this **** doesnt deserve to be on this board or forum.

A Mind-Boggling 30-Year Collection of Video Games Can Be Yours for Only $550,000 (http://kotaku.com/5982626/a-mind+boggling-30+year-collection-of-video-games-can-be-yours-for-only-550000)

Quote from: Kotaku
-The games count over 6850 pcs. with about 6780 boxed and 70 loose, and are in various format NTSC Japan or Usa and also PAL.

-The consoles are over 330, with 307 system boxed and 24 loose, and even in this case we have all the different standards.

-The controllers are about 220 with 167 boxed and 52 loose. I included all the kind of controller, from the simple joypad to the special controller like all the konami bemani to the densha de go train controller, and the arcade joystick as well.

-The accessories are about 185, and in this category I put the ac adapters, the various av cables, the rumble packs, the memory cards, battery packs, the converters for the region locked games, and various other items like screens, printers etc.

-The promo and various items are composed by promotional items like soudtracks or gadgets relate to a specific game or console, demo disc not for sale, limited edition item like the resident evil umbrella box or the Kratos twin blades, various action figures, strategy guides etc.etc.

Is it worth it? Think about it. I doubt you can play all those games in one life time.

But you'd never get bored, would you? Unless you get sick of ALL those games.

If I was a millionaire, I'd do it. Make a whole room for the storage of them.

Is it worth it? Think about it. I doubt you can play all those games in one life time.

But you'd never get bored, would you? Unless you get sick of ALL those games.

If I was a millionaire, I'd do it. Make a whole room for the storage of them.

i definitely would

I've been wondering if I should get Darkspore, I enjoyed the original Spore and I heard good things about this spin-off. Have any of you played it?

It's nothing like spore.  Only thing it has in common is the character customization.

But is it good? I know it's nothing like it apart from that, but I was wondering if it's worth the buy.

We need a game that we can all play, such as when we had a Minecraft server, so we can have a house next to each other, chill, and all that stuff. Just a thought.

No matter how hard I try I just can't find fun in video games anymore.
I have nothing to do anymore.
WiiU is for people with RL freinds, therefore sucks, 3DS isn't that great until Pokemon X & Y comes, which I don't want that bad because its too much for 2 games, Ps3 is like boring as ****, Xbox is boring as ****, and PC has nothing that interests me ever since skype group was gone.

the WiiU isn't for people with friends cuz only 1 person gets the tablet and that would cause a lot of fighting.

I don't like japanese games
i have played every major exclusive, god of war, MGS, gran turismo etc.
Only one I really liked alot was Gran Turismo but Forza was way better.

I have RDR, COD Black Ops 2 and Gran Turismo 5.

GT is a japanese gaem, as well as MGS...

NFS shift? It's more of a realistic drivan game and supposedly it has a cockpit view like GT5.

So, I installed Aliens: Colonial Marines.  Everything was working fine, then I noticed alot of graphical glitches on the moving background on the main menu.  I shrugged it off as a problem with some .bik file they were using for the menu and launched the game.  The cutscene played with no problems, then I hopped in game.  Same graphical glitches and nothing was responding.

A more detailed explanation of the graphical glitches would be everything leaves a trail.  If someone runs down a hallway, it'll leave frozen copies of them in place behind them...

Aliens vs Predators 2 was good, though D':

I have a huge list of problems with this game, so I'll copy them from my complaint on skype:

Quote
[10:29:02 AM] Daniel McMillan: IN AN ALIENS GAME
[10:29:09 AM] Daniel McMillan: It controls like CoD
[10:29:14 AM] Daniel McMillan: And CoD controls don't work on the PC
[10:29:29 AM] Daniel McMillan: I spent about 70% of my time on the first level with the options menu open, changing the controls around
[10:29:40 AM] Daniel McMillan: And the controls are designed horribly
[10:29:43 AM] Daniel McMillan: menus*
[10:30:00 AM] Daniel McMillan: And the first level had nothing to do with the opening cutscene
[10:30:05 AM] Daniel McMillan: So I was confused as hell when it started
[10:30:09 AM] Daniel McMillan: The HUD is pretty shitty
[10:30:28 AM] Daniel McMillan: And every time your character talks to someone over the radio at a scripted scene, he holds his gun up
[10:30:38 AM] Daniel McMillan: So it's kind ofa  death trap when you're fighting
[10:31:00 AM] Daniel McMillan: And there are scripted scenes where your characters puts his gun away for no reason
[10:31:09 AM] Daniel McMillan: In situations where you probably should keep your gun out
[10:31:20 AM] Daniel McMillan: It would have had NO EFFECT if they let you keep your gun out other than not ruining the mood

Oh, and the entire second level is fighting humans.  IN AN ALIENS GAME!

Have you tried dwarf fortress on your PC?
I have shift. It's bad imo, NFS is bad, ever since they released undercover they are just bad.
I have both Shifts for Pc and I play with an Xbox controller.

GT is japanese game, but I mean I don't like those anime-styled game. "weaboo" games.

Major exclusives?
Like Killzone, Infamous, Uncharted, MotorStorm, Sly, Ratchet, LBP, etc?
Owned Killzone, Infamous, Uncharted, Ratchet and LBP.
Played Sly and rented Motorstorm.

I honestly barely like these, LBP is probably my favorite but its no fun alone.
Killzone 3 was meh, i didn't like it. Halo and Valve games are the only FPS I really like. and Farcry.
Infamous was just like prototype, so I got bored. It is a good game but not my style.
Just like Uncharted and MGS. Good games but I could never get into them
I had the Ps2 Ratchet games. They where alright.

Ever since Gran turismo 5 was mediocre i kinda gave up with exclusives on ps3. It was like a gigantic fuck you.
Horrible horrible multiplayer, worlds longest updates and downloads, barely any customization compared to Forza.
It was good in some way, but outclass ed in everyway by Forza. Forza had better car options, more customization, almost as much cars (GT5 had 1000, forza 4 had 800 at the start, with DLC bringing it to 1000) and they all have equal looks and quality, unlike only 200 "good" GT5 cars.
This isn't Xbox vs Ps3.
This is Forza vs GT5,
and I say Forza. GT5 misses out on a ton of good cars, and lacking in customization. The game is too easy, but so is Forza, but at least Forza had a well made multiplayer.
I played GT5 with a Ps3 Fanboy and he was so disspointed in it also.

He points his gun at the ceiling with one hand.  So essentially every time he talks, you can't use your gun.  Oh, and he holds down the "Transmit voice" button on his earpiece, even when the other person is talking, which annoys me even more >.<

Oh, and there are hidden weapons in the game that supposedly belonged to the marines from Aliens, but when I picked up one of them, I didn't realized it would replace my currently equipped weapon.  So I dropped my pulse rifle for a shotgun.  Now I have two shotguns and a pistol in a level that mostly involves long-ranged combat.  And I can't pick up any of the Pulse Rifles from the hundreds of human enemies I've killed so far for no explained reason >.<

Also, EVERYONE was disappoint by GT5, but GT6 seems to be promising as they seemed to have learned their lesson with GT5. <_<

That's what you're supposed to do, it's called being safe, cuz ic can fire and if you have it pointed at body level, it may kill/injure a team mate.

Just run and gun bruv~

Also, they keep their hand there so if they have something to say they can press it. It's like how when you play games you keep your fingers on the buttons in case you need to press them because reasons.

Everyone bought it for multiplayer, and they weren't ready for such activity cuz not many played the beta cuz it lacked sounds and shiz, so they assumed only a handful would buy it, and they were wrong, and it started a snowball effect where after fixing all the problems and being prepared for all the users, interest was gone.

Nothing on PS3 has entertained me enough to make me want to keep it.
I only keep it because I think I will be entertained.
If there is a game for Both Xbox/Ps3, I get it for Xbox, if its for Xbox/Ps3 and PC, I either get it for PC or if i don't know if I can run it, xbox.
Once again, PS3 is dead here, nobody plays it unless they want to play COD, and most of the Ps3 players are switching to Xbox because nobody plays ps3. I like multiplayer games, I got sick of singleplayer games because thats all i ever played my whole life.

Then you should give MAG a try.

Be warned though, the servers have a small waiting period, but if you go for the 256 player servers you could be waiting for hours to join. It is a fun game though. I wish I didn't suck at FPS gaems. ._.

Also, for some reason, whenever I start up TF2, it always "Validates" the cache files for some reason. After I start up my computer and try to start it up, it always "Validates", so it takes pretty much 15 minutes to start up TF2 the first time everyday... unless I have to restart my computer, which I usually do because it sucks. Anyone else have this problem and/ or know how to fix it?

I would say JRPG but someones gonna say something like "URGGH SOMETHING SOMETHING ISN'T A JRPG" but it is in my mind, or "URGHHH POKEMON IS A JRPG"

I had one guy singing a medic song he made up on the spot whenever he needed one and I would show up and save him, and then die because I never see the enemy snipers in time.

Only RPGs I have ever gotten into are Fallout and Skyrim. If you count borderlands, that too then.
I like the way American/European RPGs are. One gener mixed with RPG Elements, not like full-on top down rpg or third person rpg with turn based battles.
Pokemon is the only game I like that is like that.
It's difficult to explain.

I also have a tendency to shift over to mainstream games because I just like them better. Not all mainstream games though.

It's difficult to explain.

I also have a tendency to shift over to mainstream games because I just like them better. Not all mainstream games though.
A tales game would work since they arent turn based I think. Mag would know moar since he lurvs tales gaems.

Good News, Aliens: CM is getting better.  After landing on LV-426 (I believe that's the planet's name, I could be wrong.  It's the one from Aliens), the game starts to pick up.  The story still sucks, but gameplay is pretty good.

Oh, and I had alot of fun with this:

Indeed, like, Tales of the Abyss has almost 50/50 for story/battles.
And it's action rpg too.
Right, you 'enter' battles by bumping in enemies but then you're in an arena comboing and dodging absolutely freely.
Tales of Graces f on the PS3 had the best battle mechanic yet. Only the story was a bit slow to boot.
However, Tales games are FULL ON anime styled. If that even matters.
Oh. And you don't need to grind. :3
I have to agree though, the RPGs Zohaib mentioned clearly stand out from any RPG. Not just JRPGs though.

Also, http://www.gamespot.com/news/gamestop-wii-u-needs-blockbuster-to-spark-sales-6403808?tag=nl.e513&s_cid=e513&ttag=e513

Funny how GameSpot keep posting GameStop's outlook on the future of videogames.
There was that article about the new Xbox and PS that would forbid any kind of game trades too...
Shit's getting real fucked.

Sony said used games are OKAY, MS however has refused to comment on the matter, which means the 720 will not allow users to use used games, and that will kill sales.

If it uses disks, people will amass a collection they wont be able to sell and will waste space, if it's internet only, not everyone will be able to buy as many games cuz not everyone has unlimited bandwidth, or fast enough internet, or even internet in the first place.

the 720 isn't looking so good.

I'll probably wont' go for either tbh. I don't play consoles enough to need a new one, especially since they aren't really NEXT gen consoles, they are just different/updated current gen consoles. Based on what I've read on them, they don't seem like they are going to much different then what the current gen does, they aren't extremely more powerful or nothing like that so I'm not expecting to see THAT much of a difference in graphics between the 2 and what not. So I'm not expecting games to be only released for PS4/720 and not on the PS3/360 which much difference at all. The only difference might be is the motion controllers and all that that sort of stuff, and how playstation wants the "social gaming".

Knowing Sony the PS4 will have a big leap in tech but lack in MP games and Social stuff at launch, until it gets hacked and people buy it in droves.

I want to see how the touchpad works though~


the only one so far that had no leap in specs was the WiiU which is using ye olden technology.

Most good gaming PC's, especially home built, will last a good 4-6 years, often the lifespan of a console. People are still always porting to PC, most new games are released on PC, it's maybe 2 or 3 publishers who won't port, and even then, It's usually only a few games. And a PC isn't just for games anyway, of course it'll be more money.

except a PC is not just a console and can do other things.  It's not too expensive considering what is it.  Not to mention many consoles are way overpriced (PS3 was stupidly expensive for a long time).  Plus PC gaming has become way more popular, if anything ports are on the up.

oh yea, along with it having more features, the PC, PC gaming is on the rise. Ever since Steam's popularity jump in mid 2011 PC gaming is just getting more and more popular.

Everyone has a PC, so having a gaming PC is just adding a console to your daily PC. Price-wise too.

There's a couple PS3 games coming out soon you probably like then.

The last of us comes out in may and seems right up your ally.

And a PC isn't just for games anyway, of course it'll be more money.
It's still like 1K for one that lasts that long before needing upgrades, whereas a console and a cheap laptop is like 500 at most.

When you don't play games, you know deep down that you spend most of your time browsing fb or watching the youtubes, which doesn't require a hexacore CPU and quad GPUs and 64GB of RAM.

Honestly, it's cheaper and better for most to just have a console and cheap laptop to do most things. Sure, PC looks better and has fun exclusives, but as long as steams DRM crap keeps punishing the consumer and doing nothing to pirates, and viruses exist, PC won't be as mainstream as a console will.

Also, most people can't trouble shoot basic problems and you have to do a lot of trouble shooting with PC, which is another reason consoles are better for most peoples gaming needs, a reboot/update fixes pretty much everything, unless it's a bethesda game.

Before you say that it doesn't allow you to sell, no ****. It's a digit store, most don't give refunds and besides, steams sales take enough off the price that I wouldn't care even if the game was crap.

Consoles don't get viruses because they are pretty locked down and hard to make them for, but with windows, viruses are everywhere and screw up your system, steal passwords and other things that can ruin someones month.

No it isn't, it's a very bad DRM, which is why sites that sell digital media DRM free are taking off, because people are sick of dealing with DRMs.


If you paid for it, it becomes your property and you have a right to sell it, and with physical media, you can sell your games. If you need some money for food/rent, you can sell yoru games to get some, but with stuff like steam you  are screwed, or if you just want some extra money to buy a new game, you can trade in physical copies of old games you no longer play to pay for a new game. You can't with steam.

Until DRM is gone and you can sell your Digital games, PC gaming won't take off as well as console gaming does.

It's why I don't get when people defend and compare the Durango's rumored used copy restrictions to Steam, so while yeah you can't get used copy's or resell them, the pricing and sales make up for it, and going by Games on Demand, Durango's games will probably stay full MSRP even with all the restrictions.

Cause fewer and fewer games get released on PC.
And don't tell me 'Steam' cause I don't get games digitally. It's unwise and boring. And I don't really like Indie.
And it's usually a lot more pain getting a game to work on PC.
Many patches and fixes cause most of the games are bad ports.
And some morning it can just stop working because another software is in conflict or some file just corrupted or virus.
And as Starrk said, it costs more. And don't link to obscure blogs.
The difference between a custom built 300$ PC and a retail or built 3000$ PC is the parts. They're cheap, like my bro sadly understood.
His DVD stopped working, his power supply burned and 2 of 4 RAM slots are defect.

Don't try and explain them as fact, you have to know what your doing. PC's are way to diverse for such generalizations.

BTW Did you really read the link, see the specs, and somehow know that it's cheap and will break? It doesn't seem like you know that much about PC gaming hardware.

Just they way they are handled.  Apparently you press the summon button again to change if they are passive or not, but there is no notification for this nor does it tell you what mode they are currently in (It even greys out the summon button, so it looks like pushing it does nothing).  Then you need to hold down the summon button for 5 seconds for it to despawn (Again, nowhere in the game does it tell you this).

Agreed. It's like Champions Online.
Just a bit better and more expensive. :/

I'm eager for Marvel Heroes. This one's gonna be good.
It is alot like Champions Online, but it isn't Pay to Win like Champions was.  Most features are unlocked for free and just about all premium features are things that you don't feel cheated out of for not having.

Are there still packs of high leveled people roaming the opposite faction's lower leveled areas? If there aren't, I might try to pick it up again... if my computer allows it :L

I'm on PvE, which puts Heroes and Villains in separate servers.  So I don't get that problem.

I posting an article a while ago stating the same thing. Nintendo needs to start working on new IPs instead of relying almost entirely on the ones they have been using like mario and zelda, because people are starting to get kind of tired of what is effectively the same thing over and over again so much, mix it up more often.

Or do a crossover. Zelda kart? The legend of peach, a luigi to the past?

You go to a phase shifter in the hall of doom/ watchtower.

You can shift between pvp and pve worlds.

PVP is essentially PVE except other players [villains or heroes depending on who you choose] will try to kill you.

PVE has both heroes and villains but they don't fight each other, you can only see the opposing team but not interact, and they are quite rare.

PVE with your friends is like playing the game Co-Op really.

Not Pay to Win. At least, not when it got in the hands of PWI.
Maybe for PVP but who cares about that?

I'll never get tired of Zelda. Every game is fresh and new. It's never the same thing over and over again.
Yes, usually Zelda gets kidnapped and a demon king is about to be reborned but, they explained that through Demise's curse.
The only 2 Zelda games that are the same are Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks on the DS.
I'm not counting the 2 Oracles games because they are meant to be played as one.

Even Mario is refreshing. However, it's just for the levels. The story and characters are boring.

But, I like your idea of crossovers.

It's because Nintendo takes their time with Zelda, but I think the reason why Nintendo has become so predictable is because of the financial issue, the Wii U's sales is at an all time low, and Iwata is implying he might resign because of the financial failures and mistakes, so Nintendo ends up mostly making sequels and "rehashes" of popular games that sold well (Multiple Mario games like NSMB.) And can't afford to risk it by making more unique games that might not sell enough.

Also Galaxy 2.
First time they made a sequel to a 3D Mario game. Or to any Mario game since Mario 2.

It hasn't even come out yet, no one knows what's in it aside from rumors, and weren't you saying to not trust rumors earlier? Besides, PC will never be a main stream option cuz there's too many combinations of parts to code for, and the amount of pirates make it a huge turn off for Devs to even bother with.

So I found out why some of my games were using my integrated Intel card instead of my Nvidia card.  Apparently installing an ENB mod (Or more specifically, the d3d9.dll file that comes with all ENB mods) causes whatever game it's for to only detect my Intel Card, which tends to overheat and can hardly handle most ENB mods.

Take it out and see what happens, it might just be that when you try and disable one, it disables the other, so if it isn't in there to begin with, it shouldn't affect the nvidia card.

You know the saying, all or nothing.

Google and see if it's easily removable, if so, give it a try, and if it doesn't work, just put it back.

Also, laptops are designed to break the day after your warranty has ended, might as well break it and just claim it fell out all on its own if things go badly. :u

I got around to playing FTL today, and I spent all day playing it.

I died after 20 minutes on my first play through because invaders crippled my door subsystem after I opened a lot of doors to stop a fire, which then caused fires to spread because I couldn't put them out, then after I put them out and got rid of the invaders, I had 2 guys left. I tried to fix the O2 system to breath but my guys weren't going to make it, so I sent one to pilot us out and the one closest to death to try and fix the o2 system, he died. I jumped into a new sector, oxygen at 4%, and jumped about 5 times hoping to find a store so I could repair my ship, but the nebula I was in caused my downfall, and I died after trying so hard to live. Was sad.

On my 2 time I got 2 members named charlie, a engi and a human. was lolzy.

You can't unlock a lock with a spear. :x

They keyblade is a weapon but is also used to unlock the hearts of different worlds and people, it serve multiple functions. Also, there's a lot of different keyblades and some are more weapony than others.

I think it's enough.  It's randomly generated each time and there are alot of special encounters (some of which can even unlock you new ships).

Try some mods. You can get different ships, HD background textures (The only mod I really use, it looks beautiful), different ship weapon models to make them look less samey, a mod that makes the ships stop chasing you so it's essentially endless, a harder difficulty mod, etc. Check here: http://www.ftlgame.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=10&sid=42abc6d8fc9e43835784adb011d23b13 (http://www.ftlgame.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=10&sid=42abc6d8fc9e43835784adb011d23b13)

Mods I use are mostly graphical: "Better Planets and Backgrounds", "Better Asteroids" and "diversityMod".

Get some Mantis or Rock Crew Members (And a teleporter if you can afford it, then you can beam on board their ship and kill the inhabitants, thus getting you more scrap from their ship).

Aim for the shields. It's that simple. If you get 2 weapons, aim at the shields, and when they are destroyed, set the weaker one on the weapons, it will cripple them and make them easier to destroy.

How do I get mantis crew?

Also, I tried that once, my crew members died. I usually hope for a fire laser and just set fire to the O2 room and weapons/shields anc choke them out to get their ship.

I always aim for the shields.  Usually my energy weapons are not strong enough to pierce their shields though, and I run out of missiles at the worse times.

You can hire them at some stores or have them join your crew through random encounters.

Only send Mantis and/or rock to other ships and beam them out as quickly as possible at the first possibility of them dying.

Oh, never seen one then, though I do get rock men sometimes, and my fed cruiser starts me with one, otherwise, no mantis to speak of.

Various different ones.  Since I reinstalled the game, I haven't been able to unlock the alternate versions of any of this ships.  But I tend to use The Kestrel, The Torus, The Adjudicater, and sometimes the stealth cruiser (It's incredibly hard to play as, though).

How have you never seen the Mantis?  Half of my crews have been killed by their boarding parties...

Upgrade your sensors and don't beam on board if they outnumber you.

You tried the engi one with the ion blaster and drone? ._.

I get killed by them but until I posted that I never actually had a friendly one.

I didn't beam them back fast enough because I didn't know fire causes hull damage, I had my sensors up to lvl 2 so I watched the fire engulf most of the place, then I beamed in some crew to finish up the last 2-3 guys, and after they died, KABOOM, half my crew gone because the fire had engulfed pretty much the entire ship at that point. Had I known fire can kill the ship I would have just waited for my enemies to die from the fire/lack of oxygen. :\

Ah. I dun know there names aside from the kestrel D:

Whycome they liek teleporters?

What really sucked was my shield guy was on the ship when it went, and I had to use my weapon guy to pull double duty, as all I had was my captain, my FTL guy (evasion boost which I needed) and my weapons guy. I died not too long after everything. :<

Because they have x1.2 movement speed and deal x1.5 damage.  They can win a fight with just about anyone (except the occasional Rock).

If you are trying to install mods, you have to put the mods (.ftl files) in the mods folder.  If you have having trouble installing the installer itself, you have to put the files that it came with in the main FTL Game directory, then run it at least once before installing anything.

I didn't get shields until sector 5, and I maxed them out by sector 6 cuz I was hoarding scrap to afford any good weapons I came across so I could beat my enemies before my cloak ran out, though I only won because I found a random laser lvl 3 that fired 5 shots and could take out anyones dhields all by itself usually, combined with my other lasers, I could shoot 9 times in one volley. Errbody mad~

Keep a supply of 150 scrap, dump what you can into shields early on cuz it will give you an advantage and help cut down on repair costs, go to as many areas as you can, even if it means you will have to fight the rebels to use the exit, and hope you can come across some blast laser lvl 3 for those 5 shots, and then use another laser to follow up and finish off the shields. :u

I've never used it. I always shoot for shield charge boost, weapon charge boost, scrap collector, and if using drones, drone collector, , cloak weapons, and weapons charged after ftl jump (not actual names, I just forget them)

I only needed FTL nav once, and that was today when I got killed in sector one because I had to go back into the rebel fleet to move forward, and my stock everything couldn't deal.

But yeah, I focus HEAVILY on lasers that shoot 3+ rounds per charge, because I don't have to waste scrap on missiles, more chance to take out shields, and usually faster recharge rate once you level up your weapons guy (I suggest engi cuz of the halved repair speed) and just lay into everyone shields, and once they go away, I focus on weapons so they can't fight back.

Drones are acceptable if you have 2 anti ship lvl 1 drones because those will weaken enemy shields down to one or to allowing more chance to hit the shield systems and eliminate their shields faster and they use 4 energy, only problem is you need a zoltan or two to run max weapons/shields as well drones and as much FTL as you can spare, because you want to dodge as many missiles as possible, again to save scrap for more upgrades.

Oh, and if you can spare the scrap, upgrade things even if you don't have anything to use that extra energy slot. That way if it's damaged, it will still have undamaged energy slots to keep the power on whatever it is. IR your oxygen has 2 energy slots, but is only using 1, if it gets damaged, the second energy slot will be unusable, but the other will still be used to power your oxygen.

Finally, if you can, get cloak. It helps give you more time to allow your weapons to fully charge so you can get an advantage over your enemy. And if you need too, wait until all your weapons are ready to fire before firing, it usually helps because you can time your weapons so any hull lasers/fire weapons can hit right as the enemies shields are down so you can cause maximum havoc. :3

tl;dr get chance and luck

That's because the 720 isn't out yet. They can't say whats going to be developed for whats kept so secret by MS that they won't even announce it's reveal.

I still believe both will be the exact same.
I mean the PS4 is announced, so every gaming site, even your biased PS sites, will orgasm over whats going to be on it.
Same with the xbox.

So far the xbox has just been shooting for gimmicks, the kinect, smart glass, and the fact they wont say anything about banning used games is turning a lot of people towards the PS4 because they are handling it a lot better and reassuring everyone that they will have plenty of games to play and they will also be able to sell it and wont have to worry about it being one huge gimmick machine like the WiiU. If MS doesn't start doing something soon, they will lose out to the PS4. :x

The touchpad will most likely be used for internet browsing and such, because the stick sucked for browsing.

The Move was just Sony showing off, and it worked far better than the Wiimote, and they didn't expect anyone to use it, thats why they never pushed it, unlike MS/Nintendo pushing their gimmicks on as many games as they could

A lot of games used the sixaxis, but no one ever bothered to turn it on. I used it for GTA cuz it made motorcycling easier. ._.

Dance games. Thats all the eye was used for was the dance games.



Nintendo/MS are pushing for devs to use their gimmicks, Sony just makes them to show off and one up everyone else, because they need their ego stroked every now and again~

and lol sure the wiimote was bad but the move was abysmal, the gimmick of the gimmickiest proportions.

Again, the move was PURELY to one up nintendo and show off. It wasn't pushed, they didn't waste much if any money marketing it, I doubt any games used it, but they just wanted to show off.

Sony is a smart company.

Sony game division isn't smart, especially when to came to the PS3. :x

The whole PS3 scenario was a stupid business decision, and it did make them look bad, which is why they are trying to do the opposite of the PS3 with the PS4 and make sure they have good games coming out to keep people interested and focusing more on core gamers.

What makes you think that?  There have only been 4-  No wait, 5...
Shit, 6...

But two of those didn't sell really well and were fairly obscure.
Two more were great, but evidently nobody has played them past the first city but me and a bunch of old school elitists.
And the other two were made recently, being a decent time span apart considering they are both on the same engine and one of them is a spinoff of the other and made by different devs.


But the new ones are coming out in the same timing and fashion as Bethesda's other big games.  And until they start getting poor sales, they're gonna keep making sequels.  That's how the industry works.

And it's why Indy games are taking off, because you keep getting the same game every time and it causes a lack of innovation because people are afraid to change a winning formula, because they always change the wrong thing and make the game worse.

Sequels are killing new game ideas. :c

By your logic, they should stop making Persona games.

Persona gets a new battle system/story each time, even the ports get extras, but a lot of current sequels don't change much besides the setting and nerfing things.

And I don't mean stop making sequels, but stop making so many, start doing reboots or spin offs. :<

Well Fallout has only had 3 official games, the rest being spinoffs (Unless you count New Vegas as a main game).  And the story is different with each game, also half of the fallout games have a completely different play style from the other half.

The first 2 games were an isometric turn based RPG, the first spinoff was a real time isometric squad based combat game with RPG elements from fallout, the next spinoff was...  I don't even know what the hell it was trying to be...  Only the two most recent Fallout games have followed the new gameplay style, and one of them was a spinoff of the other.  So it's not too soon to judge them :P
(Although I don't expect Fallout 4 to deviate far from what Fallout 3 did, unless Bethesda over simplifies it like with what they did with Skyrim).

Well fallout, and Persona add new stuff and change things quite drastically, the vast majority of sequels recently aren't doing that, because COD literally changed the setting, nothing else, and still sold millions, so other big game companies are doing the same and just changing the bare minimum to make it seem like a new game, and pushing out sequels like mormons push out babbys. It's slowly giving Indy game devs more power as people dont like samenessto this extent, especially when it's 60 bucks for what is ultimately DLC tier content.

Well Fallout 3 was nothing at all like Fallout 2. It actually changed the genre, thats how different it was.

Fallout: New Vegas is a spinoff of Fallout 3, it's not another main series fallout game.

So Fallout 4 might have some improvements. I'd like to see fallout 4 on a new engine.

Nope. It came out during the time where game devs decided the user had zero choice in control schemes. I despise using the triggers for race games, I am far better at using the buttons, even when I played GT5. ._.

It's supposedly the last Singleplayer DLC for ME3. Basically what happens is that this new organization is out to get Shep and his pals, so he/she has to call all of his/her past allies to stop them. And when I say past allies, I mean all of the squadmates you've had since ME1 (if they haven't died yet :L). The script seems a bit... eh... but it's still pretty epic that you get everyone back.

PETA is on the FBIs watch list cuz they are classified as a terrorist organization, and have ties to well known terrorists.

Also, PETA kills almost every animal it "saves", they have no guidelines on what makes an animal savable or not, and non of the members want to actually put in the effort, so they kill them all without a second thought, and have no shame over it either.

Neptunia has a cool battle system~


I'm loving the new Tomb Raider!
Everything is so beautifully done~
And that extra preorder area was nice. Though I'm missing a tool to proceed to another smaller area...
what kind of battle system? :O

And what is neptunia about anyway?

It's turn based but you have kind of free movement and you can combo like a ninja.

It's about console wars~

I played some Crysis 2 MP today. Sticking someone with your only thermite arrow and watching as they realize you stuck them and they just stop running and accept their fate and then look at your is lulzy, especially when watching the kill cams. :U

Crysis 3 has a mode on MP called Hunter. It's humans VS nanosuit guys (hunters), when you die as a human, you respawn as a hunter and have to hunt the humans, and humans are tasked with merely surviving for 2 minutes.

Well I was a human, and at about 30 seconds left when my only other team mate was killed. Suddenly, a hunter starts making his way towards me, and me, with only a shotgun, I shot randomly, and when I ran out of ammo, I made a mad dash away. I was running through tunnels and buildings, and at abou the 15 second mark, all 11 other players were shooting at me, and cuz I was sliding every few feet, I was dodging them all, and then they started shooting their explosives arrows at me, and again I dodged it, but for 15 seconds, with explosions going off everywhere and I skillfully dodging them like the coward I am, I felt like I was in a micheal bay movie.

I managed to live and win the round, which angered the 2 guys on the mic who couldn't kill me. Felt glorious man =w=

You mean halo 3's infection mode, expect without customization?

I played Crysis 2, and that game's multiplayer was glorified COD.
I heard Crysis 3 is much of the same. It's just the graphics (which sucks on console anyways) and story that people bought it for.

FFS, it's EXCEPT! Dx

Yeah but you get to have neater abilities and the guns are more scifi, and it's different enough to be fun to play.

Also, it's lulzy to stick someone with a time bomb arrow and watch as they realize in the 5~ seconds it takes for it to blow, that they will die no matter what they do.

The graphics on the PS3 aren't near as bad as the 360 versions ._.

The story made ZERO sense. None. Nada. Zip. Zilch. It has so many plot holes and stuff it aint worth the 50 bucks. maybe about 30 or less.

But yeah, the MP is pretty fun.

All the reviews say it has good story, it didn't make sence to me either. I don't think Crysis is that amazing tbh, graphics in recent years haven't suprised me. I mean, GTA V looks great, but only looks great in distance, not in textures and stuff. Since the new gen is coming, all current gen things are at their limits.
GTA V will probably tear shreds through both consoles hardware.

The story was meh. I mean, where did all the aliens come from? Why are you still playing as prophet when he KILLED HIMSELF in the intro to crysis 2? Why did cell not remove Prophets suit while they had him immobilized for TWENTY YEARS!?

Honestly, it was lack luster, and the areas weren't very open, and you couldn't hide in bushes anymore, and invisible walls all over the place. Twas meh.

Grafix were good.


I wonder if GTAV will be available on the ps4 o.o

Yeah, but it's pertaining to stuff that happened in earlier games, that not everybody has played.  I was planning on playing the Crysis series soon, so I had no idea about it until you spoiled major plot points.

I went to my home, keeping an eye out for that pacifier symbol that signifies a child as yours. Well, I found it pretty easily. It was a little black boy.... What???

"Hey, I'm your son, you know. In case you didn't remember." He was so smart-allecky with his first words to me.
"Daddy, your home! I love you, daddy!" His mood changed immediately.
"Dad, you're a murderer, aren't you?" Then I remembered that I killed a noble just a few game-days before.

It's very mainstream because all this generation of gamers care about is GRAFIX and Crysis pushes the limits on them, so people talk about it and buy it all day err day.

Plus, it's very fun, though Crysis 2 is tons better than Crysis 3, cuz all crysis 3 did was add a bow that one hits everything. I mean everything. I took 5K rounds to kill a boss, but it took 8 arrows to kill the same thing when I had to refight it cuz the checkpoint system in C3 is bawlz.

Crytek said it themselves that C3 was more meant for optimizing the CryEngine 3 than making it push boundaries and such. :x

TDU2 was released in 2011, and TDU Ferrari was released in 2012.

TDU2 is pretty fun, but has some problems. Like hitting a tree at 100MPH? Dead stop. Touch a wall at 5MPH? Flipped around and launched at 20MPH in the opposite direction. Really annoying because touching a wall means I have to come to a stop, turn around, and continue on, where as hitting a tree is just backing up a couple feet and continuing on. Dunno if any patches fixed it as there's 2 patches and the first one is 350MB, and I aint got time for that.

get upgrades.
try the impreza
its so much fun offroad.

I was tempted to get one earlier but I decided for the audi hatchback cuz I needed a good A7 car and it handles so good! Takes days to shift though. Like, at least a 3 secod delay when shifting into reverse or 1st gear. D:

I'll give it a shot after I decide which house to buy though, cuz you can't sell cars you win from other racers, and I have no room for moar cars ;-;


Yeah... that feel.

I was thinking of getting nostalgic games, but then I realized that some of my favorite games from when I was younger were never ported to PC :'(

These Include:
Star Wars: Jedi Starfighter (The original is on PC, but it doesn't have the replayability that the second did)
Big Mutha Truckers (Don't judge me, it was a great game)
Star Wars: The Clone Wars (The game sucked, but it was the very first game I ever owned, and it was so much fun)
Thrillville (Terrible, simplified version of RCT3, but the minigames were so much fun)
and Halo 2 (No wait, that was released on PC...)

18 wheels of steel and euro truck simulator are trucking games if you want to kind of relive your childhood. ._.

Yeah.

I do too cuz it would cut down on my laptops heat problem and be more energy efficient, but I keep reading about their life span being 150-300 days before complete failure and loss of everything on it, which worries me as I don't have the money to keep replacing it every couple months, and I was hoping someone here has one and has input about it.

So I just realized that the Official Razer Switchblade Skyrim App is useless if you remap your menu keys.  Since the hotkeys don't lock onto the actual action, but instead are just replicas of the keys in the default settings, just with pictures on them.

So, say if you remap the Wait command to "Y" and set your spell menu to "T", pressing the wait button will bring up the spell menu.

Great job, Razer >_>


Edit: Just about all of these apps do this except for the SWTOR App >.<

I'm sure someone will make a patch that removes the DRM and allows unofficial servers soon.




Also, the Subaru STD in TDU2 is OP as hell. I could take hairpin turns at 70MPH+ with no driving assistance no problem, but I spin the tires for days and spin out in the MB convertable SLS (or is it SLK?) and need some assistance stuff turned on! D:

This is the SLR, if its not this than it's the SLK.

The Impreza has 4WD made for offroad, not like lambo AWD made for launch. The Impreza, Impreza WRX are toned down rally cars, the wrx is just the body kit. The Impreza WRX STI is the full rally car, all the tractiony goodness and 300hp, I4 Turbo.

The SLR is a V12 RWD Supercar.

I love the impreza, because it, and the lancer, are big trololos to supercars. They can beat supercars stock, without mods, if driven by the right person. The old ones smoked diablos and ferraris, while still having 4 doors, a trunk, and quite enough room. they are like slightly bigger than a toyota corollas and can outspeed murcilargos. Problem is they don't have the supercar image, and people think the impreza is ugly.

I don't care, I love them. Especially in video games with offroading, impreza kicks ass, because its so light it can jump from place to place, its so agile it can smoke the suvs.

enough of me jizzing over the impreza.
How far are you in TDU2?

It's the SLK with a VEE ATE, not the supercar. I couldn't afford that cuz I just spent 179K on a house with 4 car garage D;

I doubt your assertions that a stock suby can beat a super car. In a drag race of course cuz AWD and thicker tires, but around a track I dont think so tim.

The Suby looks ugly, the evo looks better I think.

Seriously, if supercars stopped putting rubber band tires on cuz it looks cool, they would:
Ride better
Not need new rims if they hit a pothole/speedbump at speed
Launch better

Cars need thicker tires so they can crinkle during a launch and grip like a sumbitch. it's why drag cars have massive rubber on the back and nothing up front.

I just got to hawaii and got my offroad license. Gonna need some moniez for a Audi V12 Diesel, and need to get some other licenses and moar cars. :u

I also need to drive around more and get high discovery so I can upgrade my cars beyond level 1.

Actually its around turns that  stock mitsi/subie can match a murci and beat it. Off the start it will lose.
Also, i think that was 04 models only. New supercars are tooo fast. Also back in the day, WRC cars where technically supercars, and since the Subaru and Mitsu are road WRC cars, they could beat mid-late 90s ferraris and lambos.

The WRC Street cars have always been the same, while supercars get faster and faster, thats why.

I am doubting your assertions more.

Well sub/mistu cant make them much faster cuz then they wouldn't work in rally races as they would be too powerful and lose grip and go too fast and cause more problems than it's worth.

Is it just me or are super cars becoming unsustainable as of late, cuz a lot more are selling them at a loss. ._.

Dragon Age: Origins

Or, if you want a retro game, KOTOR or KOTOR II.
But if you're gonna get KOTOR II, you need to get the restoration project, otherwise the game is incomplete and the story makes little sense.

Weapons typically do more damage, making them more lethal to everyone involved.
High grade shotguns also had their accuracy increased, so they're far less useless.

And the Camo Suit did have a stealth bonus in the base game, but it was so small it is very easy not to notice.  The mod simply makes it much more effective.  It also halves the price, so you don't need to save up the crazy 45 diamonds for it.

yeah!

though the article says they still have work to do on the mod because you still need to connect to the server to save the progress apparently.  But hopefully that'll get fixed.

It's called Saints Row 4.

This game looks so bad, it looks like DLC for the third game.
And it's more over the top and stupid, which is when the series took a turn for the worse, when they made it overtop and stupid.
SR3 was the most disappointing game I bought in 2011, all it was was unfunny childish **** jokes, unsatisfying gunplay & gameplay (i mean you unlock everything within the first 5 missions), a bad story, and overall bad game.
SR4 looks like the same old same old. People in the comments of the video even agree xD

SR3 was the most disappointing game I bought in 2011, all it was was unfunny childish **** jokes, unsatisfying gunplay & gameplay (i mean you unlock everything within the first 5 missions), a bad story, and overall bad game.
SR4 looks like the same old same old. People in the comments of the video even agree xD
So...
Red Faction is cancelled because the new game only sold as much as the previous, but SR4 gets another 'sequel'...


I give up.  Volition is dead to me...

I give up.  Volition is dead to me...

As part of THQ's bankruptcy and dissolution in January 2013, Volition was acquired by Koch Media which will publish its future titles under the Deep Silver label, although the Red Faction franchise was not included in the transaction.

Which means that Volition doesn't exist anymore.
Not as it was anyway. It was reborn.

Look Saints Row 3's new DLC!
It's called Saints Row 4.

Please don't tell me you preferred SR2 to SR3...
SR2 was the most disappointing game ever for me.
All the characters ever talked about was drugs and all they ever did was smoke. Boring as fuck and not even funny. It tried too much to be GTA.
SR3 though is fabulous~ The wacky humor is hilarious. They go overboard sometimes but it's the only game like that.
They really distinguished themselves from GTA which is what's awesome.

SR3 was one of the games where I had the most fun.
More than GTAIV.

SR3 tried to be GTA:SA and earlier GTA games.

GTAIV tried to be SR2.

Both were major disappointments because they did 180s, and while doing some things good, they got old fast for various reasons.

SR3 was horrible.
It was a bunch of penis and boob jokes.
the gameplay was unsatisfying. People where more like paper, and cars where pointless.
Character and Vehicle customization is missing so much stuff from SR2.

SR3 was a quick cash-in. SR4 is the same.

The radio did have the best in game radio music selection of any game so far though, and it was colorful, but those do not make up for how boring it was. God the moment I fully upgraded my pistols I just rolled through the whole thing. Character customization isn't as fun as SR2 was, and it was too over the top, and you get everything unlocked byt he end of the tutorial missions.

Not to mention it bankrupted THQ and they are making a sequel! And it will most likely be overshadowed by GTAV and sell even less! That's just bad business decision making right there.

When GTA V comes out, saints row franchise will be gone. They are brining back the crazy stuff like jets and ****.

I mean, it did bankrupt THQ, and the sequel doesn't even LOOK like a sequel, it looks like friggin DLC.

They say that, but to what extent will GTAV be crazy like previous GTA installments, or is just crazy by GTAIV standards. I am going to buy it day one, but I am trying to keep my optimism down a touch in case it isn't all they are promising, cuz I hate companies that over promise but under deliver.


Yep, and whoever owns SR now will regret shoveling it out. I wonder if it will have an even shorter campaign than SR3, or even less options than before, cuz THQ did love removing features their fans loved...

I'm keeping hopes up for GTA V, because I don't want to be dissapointed.
I had a long convo with my freind about the few games that genuinely made me happy. I genuinely liked them, i wasn't forced to like them.
GTA IV, Oblivion, Halo 3 are examples. Its why I want to keep my hopes up. Skyrim kinda dissapointed, Halo 4 was crap. I just don't want another **** up.
I liked every GTA so I think GTA V will just make me happier.
GTA Iv may have made alot of people not like it, but it comes 2nd on the most fun of any game I have ever played. Halo 3 is first. It's mainly due to multiplayer.

And that logic is backwards. If you keep your hopes low, you wont be disappointed because it's what you were expecting, but if it meets/exceeds your expectations, it makes EVERYTHING better. Keeping your hopes high will only lead to disappointment. q_q

It was fun for a little bit but I got bored WAY too fast. There was no pacing. You never had to work for anything, it was all given to you in the first few missions, so when I got something new I didn't feel anything for it cuz I never had to work for it.

And losing tires and damaging your cars had no adverse effects and was pointless. You could speed away and turn just fine. Radio was awesome though~

I will prolly get SR4 when it goes on sale just because though :\

They do, but maybe not as bad the DA ones, cuz DLC usually comes out way after everyone beat the game, unless your EA, then it comes out on release day, but they usually expect you to have beaten the game before wanting DLC. :\

But the thing is, a lot of DLC is meant to be played at the same time as the main quest.  Because alot of RPGs tend to end after the main quest.

Well, take Bethesda Games as examples.

The only time they had DLC that had anything to do with the ending of the game was Fallout 3's Broken Steel.  And that contained an endgame mode and a few new quests, weapons, armor, and enemies.

Unless you count the New Vegas DLC that foreshadowed the game's ending, but everyone already knew what was said, even people who haven't beat the main quest yet (Like yours truly).

Nintendo cant do anything new because then their fans blast them, and they cant do rehashes cuz then EVERYONE bashes them. They are being held back by all their iconic games.

I just wish COD didnt exist, cuz now no FPS game does well if it doesnt try to be as easy as cod, cuz the players get upset when they arent as good as older players, where as cod managed to make the skill gap almost non existent, so anyone can just pick up a controller and play it and not do super terrible or get killed repeatedly.

COD has forever killed FPS games, and most others as well.


Also, I miss single player games. Now everyone focuses entirely on multiplayer and just adds a single player campaign because then they can charge 60 bucks no matter how short the campaign is. :c

listen to 1:37:27 while I say this

COD Ruined modern gaming.
I know i'm going to get punished for saying this.

But Skyrim and Halo 4 and Alot of Modern sequels to classics are ruined by CODs idea of simplification. Simplfy this because your too much of a friggin idiot to do anything properly.

Any jackass can pickup COD and master it in a week.
Anyone could pick up classics like Halo 3 and it'd take forever to master, and it felt like an immersive, connected experience. It felt like how a video game SHOULD feel.
This goes for old Nintendo Titles and everything.

There was a journey. There was an immersive, loving experience, it took time to beat.
At the start of these great games you felt like you where small, and useless. You couldn't stand a chance against anything, but by the end you feel like you mastered the game.
You OWN the game, You are the victorious one. You helped guide Mario or Masterchief or you yourself through the eyes of Red, or Link.
There was a true experience, a true journey to behold, and on that journey you had a great time, and by the end you felt all nostalgic and warm inside because you did it.

Games these days just, cannot deliver the experience. They are too busy focusing on crap like gimmicks or multiplayer, rather than making an enriching experience. CODs half-assed random story and reptitive gameplay aren't trips. Halo 4's redefined multiplayer and extensive focus on it ruins everything expect the Story.  Skyrim's simplicity makes me feel like I'm too stupid to do anything (Though I did enjoy some of it).

IDK, I really wish more games had experiences like this. And Multiplayer can be done right, but personally, the best multiplayer is the one you can share with your friends. Local Multiplayer, or private games. They are much far superior to massive multiplayer with a bunch of blokes who don't know jack crap about a good game and good sportsmanship, or even being slightly freindly. People make this general assumption that Halo is all about that, and to that I say, No. Halo 3 has the option of that, but the custom games and community sharing was worked out so incredibly well, it created an enviroment you could single out for good people to play with, instead of annoying little 13 year olds. COD is trying to this in recent releases, but it can't. It's just a quick cash-grab. As are many recent games.

My female character in TDU2 who was last driving a lotus evora.

I dunno lol.


Also, the evoras gearbox is all sorts of what. 1st and 2nd gear perfect, then 3rd comes along, and its a VERY tall gear, so you lose power until almost the end of 3rd, and then 4th is ok, and 5th last from 122 until 128, and then it shifts to 6th gear, which is also a very tall, powerless gear. EXPLAIN THIS BULLSHIT!

I still use it cuz the V8 sounds like a V8, and it handles very well for a RWD VEE ATE powered coupe.

I feel the same.
Though I'm completely satisfied with the game selection on PS3.

The Vita is outselling the WiiU so it will get more games soon, but for now it's just getting ports and PSx classics, which is good or bad depending on the game I suppose.

@zohaib as I said, CoD removed the skillgap and poplarized multiplayer, and people liked it.

If you want single player games, start playing Japanese games. They hate multiplayer and all games are very single playery. I'm sure theres plenty that arent super kawaii desu, but I wish you would get over how a game looks and focus on gameplay. :\

You want great experiences?
Did you hear about the PlayStation?
Another great exclusive is coming out soon. Rain.
Look it up.

Uncharted is a great experience too.
Zelda still is.
There are still a lot of games that bring an awesome experience.
DmC. Even though most people hate the new Dante, those who actually completed the game agree that it's at least better than they initially thought.
When the character grows, this is what makes an experience. When you take part in the characters' development.
That's where CoD fails. Every other 5 minutes you're a new guy somewhen else.
The last 3 console Zelda games used facial expressions to propel more Link's feelings which brought players closer to him.
The best Mario game to me was Sunshine because it had kind of a more elaborate story.
Mario showed feelings there was a sense of drama too.
Also, games where you need to make choices are growing more and more popular for the same reasons. Or games with RPG elements where you gotta earn your way through. It's what makes for immersion.

Immersion isn't about 1st person view.
The most immersive games, at least to me, are 3rd person views. (Mass Effect, Uncharted, Tomb Raider)
Of course, some work in 1st person view like Bioshock.

I could go on and on about this yet it all comes down to the same.

You got to FEEL the game not just BURN through it.

So I agree with most of what you said.
Though I don't agree with taking forever to master Halo. :P

When the character grows, this is what makes an experience. When you take part in the characters' development.
That's where CoD fails. Every other 5 minutes you're a new guy somewhen else.
The last 3 console Zelda games used facial expressions to propel more Link's feelings which brought players closer to him.
The best Mario game to me was Sunshine because it had kind of a more elaborate story.
Mario showed feelings there was a sense of drama too.
Also, games where you need to make choices are growing more and more popular for the same reasons. Or games with RPG elements where you gotta earn your way through. It's what makes for immersion.

Immersion isn't about 1st person view.
The most immersive games, at least to me, are 3rd person views. (Mass Effect, Uncharted, Tomb Raider)
Of course, some work in 1st person view like Bioshock.

I could go on and on about this yet it all comes down to the same.

You got to FEEL the game not just BURN through it.

So I agree with most of what you said.
Though I don't agree with taking forever to master Halo. :P

I don't think character development of Link and Mario are why those games feel great. (I don't think the have much at all..  even in Sunshine and Skyward..I don't think that's what they were trying to do, though if they were it's a very half hearted attempt.)

I know for Skyward they tried and I think they did pretty good too.
Sunshine's a theory. I believe it's the game where Mario shows the most feelings. And from the whole imprisoning and imposter, I believe they really tried.
Though it's not as great as other games, it still was a nice touch.

Yes, I totally agree with that. The adventure styled games in my opinion were the best (including Heroes)... except for Shadow the Hedgehog, because that was just silly. That was when the stories were actually deep and keep you immersed, plus they weren't dumb and rushed like Sonic 06. Not saying that the newer Sonic games like Colors and Generations were bad, they were freakin great, but the stories weren't as developed as the Adventure games which made them feel a bit shallow.

But if we're talking about deep immersion and compelling stories, The Walking Dead fills that bill pretty well. Sure, you can say that it's not a video game, but that doesn't mean you can't get invested in it. And even though you aren't technically playing as yourself, but it's your choices that shape the story. Plus it becomes a really touching tale about two people sticking together through a ruined world.

Eh. Don't get me wrong I have nostalgia for SA2 as well, but in hindsight I don't think the story fit Sonic that well, it took itself a bit too seriously, it makes me think of it " Good game, that Sonic just happened to be in, rather than a Sonic game." They tried to push it even further with 06 and look what happened there.
Colors and Gens (Even Unleashed I guess.) they realized to tone it down, though they went a little far with Gens having pretty much no story. (Though it seems like some cut scenes were cut.)
I think SA1 had a pretty good balance of story and Sonic charm. (Though both SA1 and SA2 had really bad animation.)
But S3&K should be the benchmark of Sonic stories IMO, perfect balance.

To you maybe, no offence starrk but your not the most open to non-sony stuff.

I tried Uncharted 2, Infamous, God Of War 3, LBP, MGS: 4, etc.

I haven't tried resistance yet, but the ps3 is broken I think, so no point trying.

Ever played custom games?

Also, trust me, COD is easier.

The main crisitism I hear with Halo IRL is

"they take too long to die"
"you can't aim down the sights"

Let me give you an example.

Not every gun in Halo kills you instantly. Every gun in COD DOES kill you instantly.

Gamemodes like SWAT put an emphasis on skill, in a competitive term. Headshots only kill, nothing else. Limited ammo.

In single player, there are.
*shock*
different types of enemies
weapon drops and hidden weapons
co-op
hidden skulls to find, and go back to the story
a decent story
a good balance between shooting segments and driving parts
actual movement in shooting parts.

COD is just
stop shoot generic enemies
maybe 1 different guy
do some cutscene where you act like you use a new feature, but really its just a quicktime cutscene
repeat

As if anyone plays the single player in COD.
To unlock cool looking armor in Halo 3, you had to beat the story on hard difficulty levels or collect skulls. Armor that doesn't effect gameplay.
It gives you a reason to play single player, it gives a point to the single player, its very classic in that sence.

I dropped mine and it did the same thing.

Unplug it, press the reset button with a toothpick, and turn it off, then reboot the PS3 and see if that helps.

I have played custom maps. Were fun for a while but not long.

Halo is easy because you may not be able to kill someone quickly, but that also goes for you, you can run away and live to fight again, giving you extra live basically.

Both CoD and Halo are easy for their own reasons, and after Halo 2, the SP campaigns have been immensely short and all about the MP, and the same can be said about CoD, after CoD4, twas all about the MP.

Also, the different enemies in Halo are basically all the same but with different skins, same with CoD.

They're more fun with custom infection gamemodes and a lot of friends.

So?  You don't die quickly, others don't die quickly.  So it balances out.

Halo 3's Campaign was the same length as Halo 2's.  Granted that less things happened, but it was still the same length.  And of course they put more focus on the multiplayer because Xbox Live was reaching it's peak, but at least it didn't stop them from dropping the single player quality.

Have you even played the campaign for a Halo game?  No two different types of enemies are remotely similar unless that's their point.

Grunts - Fairly weak, quick to run away from a fight.  Although if they are in a large enough group they can quickly take you down
Elites - Standard enemies, somewhat strong shields and decent armor
Jackals - A little weaker than a grunt, but they tend to stay in a defensive stance with a focused shield that only protects their front
Brutes - The Elites' replacements in Halo 3, they have weaker shields (no shields in halo 2) but stronger armor
Hunters - Deadly shock troopers that always travel in pairs, their bodies are mostly armored but you can do a lot more damage by aiming at the unprotected 'flesh'
Drones - Wasp-like creatures that are equipped with Plasma Pistols (Standard weapons for Grunts and Jackals) that tend to swarm in very large groups.  If left unchecked they can kill a player in seconds.

All completely different.  Only similarity is between Elites and Brutes in Halo 3.  But that was because Brutes were replacing Elites as the main enemies.  In Halo 2 they were much different, they had no shields but much more armor/endurance and when their health got low they would charge at you and do extra melee damage.

I agree with that.
I dunno about Halo 3 but the first 2 had awesome SP.
I played Halo 3, ODST and the other one (was it Reach?) on MP and it kinda all felt the same.
And it was easy enough to get kills against experienced players too.
Gears of War MP was harder to get used to. But again, it's TPS.

Therefore its a good game to me, because I enjoyed it.

Also, the different enemies in Halo are basically all the same but with different skins, same with CoD.
The different skins mean something.

Different colours of elites and grunts have different weapon sets and different armor sets and different tactics.
COD just has brown people, russian people, slightly more brown people. Black Ops 2 has black people.

DmC didn't really do much new besides make it VERY casual and easier to appeal to a wider audience, which is NOT what DMC fans want, and it sold less than the HD collection. They basically killed something good to appeal to edgy teenagers, not to mention they didnt do anything new and just did a very basic story thats been done before.

What did Bioshock and dota do that was new?

mirrors edge, bioshock, dmc (the new one, some might contest this, but they went against all the hate on the character revamps and tried somethign new) killzone, dota, theres a few others that i cant remember right now,

games that are the same:
battlefield (these days) cod, every other gaming franchise ever
Max Payne changed alot.
GTA changes at least, I mean the games are distinguishable from eachother much more than COD, and no yearly releases. GTA IV was good, but some people don't like the change, which I can understand, but they didn't change it for mainstreamers. It would be saints row then.

They liked the physics, but they hated the endless cityscape cuz it was depressing and all looked the same. Not to mention it wasnt over the top like it used to be, which TBoGT was able to fix up a bit.

In earlier GTA games you had different areas that were distinct to explore and things to do in all of them. Not so much in IV, but V is looking to make it happen.

WHY CANT IT BE SEPTEMBER ALREADY??! Dx

I loved GTA IV for the multiplayer & physics, but I agree with you alot on the city.
jesus its dull and grey

I have enb mods so its nice and bright, but the normal game should ship like that.

I find the comedy and gameplay and physics make up for the over the topness, though it doesnt hurt.
I'd like a mix.
The physics lay down the relaistic down to earth fun
but theres still jet planes and quad bikes and dune buggies and stuffs

which GTA V will add :D

I wish GTAIV had better radio stations so I could enjoy more of the humorous commercials but my god they were boring.

The LCHC was bawlz cuz it had screamo, and all I could listen to were the WKTT and Integrity and the mexican station despite not understanding a lick of spanish, san juan wasnt it?

I still want some user radios back so I can enjoy driving longer, cuz listening to the same music gets old...

You think GTA IV had bland, colorless scenery?  Have you ever played GTA III?  It's must more dull and grey.

At least GTA IV has it's oranges and yellows at certain times of the day on the beach, it's grey 24/7 in GTA III.

What did Bioshock and dota do that was new?

Have you played Bioshock?
It really isn't your typical FPS.
Sure you get guns, but you also get tonics or plasmids to build your character.
And in Bioshock 2 you get to play a Big Daddy instead of a guy that fights the daddies.
You get a Rivet Gun and a Spear Gun.
You can throw bees at the enemy, shock, burn, control, etc.
Plus the original had a big morale: Either harvest all the Little SIsters killing them or get less upgrades and powers and save them.

I don't really see what Killzone and DOTA did different.

Killzone is just a generic PS exclusive FPS, and DOTA is essentially Valve's version of LoL

Umm. That comment actually offends me. LoL is a ripoff of dota which was originally in the WC3 engine,which is solely there to make money by making people pay to unlock unbalanced characters to win. It makes me angry when people say this. So I'm bringing it to your attention now, as I'm feeling generally ok ATM because you may not know what I've just said

Radio Stations where alright.
Electro Choc didn't have good songs till TBOGT.
And Liberty Rock Radio and Radio Broker get better songs in TLAD.
Also Vladvistok gets Dance music in TBOGT, and tbh I actually like it that way.

TLAD had ok story but it didnt add anything great.
all the choppers look the same, and I don't like choppers either.

TBoGT added the buzzard, APC, Buffalo (Dodge Charger Civillian), Sticky Bombs, Grenade Launcher, Explosive Sniper.

Yusuf Amir gives like the most crazy fun missions. Like stealing a traion or sinking a cruise liner for a helicopter. he also gives you a gold Rolls Royce and gold Buzzard.

I couldn't help but laugh at the grenade launcher taking down the chopper, as the guy was hanging out of the car and hearing the song all together it then reading the description "...and more realistic" was the last straw for me!

You can never do anything kickass to good song on the radio in real life because the radio always changes the songs when it gets good.

Not to mention the CoD double scope thing. It doesn't look super great, but it might be decent. All depends on a lot of things though.

Just avoid it. It's gonna be plagued with problems and gimmicks, and it wont be able to compete with the PS4, and maybe even the 720.

3rd party devs dont want to touch it cuz they wont see any profits and it's expensive to dev for cuz of all the gimmicks, and it wont even look as good as a 360/PS3 game which turns off most gamers. It's a flop.

Every game needs the expansion stick. It sucks so much.

I"m actually with Starrk.  I feel like I've wasted a lot of money on my 3DS.

There's not a very good selection of games and it has very few uses other than basic web browsing and Netflix (And the app is very buggy).

The Vita has more extra uses and is getting a better selection of games.

That's not a problem with the system, it has plenty of good games, especially on the eShop. Just because it's not ones to your interest or heavily advertised doesn't mean they're not there.

It's just, 200+ for only 4 games doesn't seem like it's worth the money :/


Title: Re: Gaming Discussion [ToT of Gaming]
Post by: Murican Jakler on March 30, 2013, 09:05:47 am
Luigi's Mansion is pretty damn good, and it doesn't really hold your hand as much as other games out there. Sure it tells you how to use the functions on the Poltergust and other things, but the rest you have to figure out.

It also does a Mega Man and introduces new enemies, items and puzzle pieces by having you experiment with them a little bit in a controlled environment, so when you figure out how to use it then, you'll know what to do with those elements later on when you're faced with a big challenge that involves those same elements. The first boss of the game is a giant spider, and the game introduces almost everything you need (minus the attacks it does on it's own, but those are pretty obvious to dodge or counter :L) to take it down.

It tests the player's intelligence and memory to solve the problems and stop the ghosts from wrecking more ****. I haven't tried out the multiplayer yet, but I'm hoping that it'll be fun.

Also, I beat Sly Cooper 4 yesterday and the final boss was pretty good, but it was basically a big quick time event. It was pretty cool, but it should've been something added during or after an initial boss fight with LeParadox, like fighting his mech or something. Also, I think it's safe to assume that there's gonna be a fifth with the way they ended it, which is fine with me. :3

The Vita has good games, and a lot of PSX titles are being ported over, and with 2 sticks, touch screen, track pad on the back, cameras and microphone, and like 9 hour battery life, it's the best hand held system right now, and the Vita also has a thing where if you buy a PS3 title you get the Vita version for free so you can start playing a game on PS3, and finish it on the Vita, and vice versa. It's a very good system and worth moniez.


The PSP was a great investment. Unlimited gaems cuz I put cfw on it, good battery life, can watch movies and shiz on it. Pretty good. The PSPGo is a waste of money though. :\

I'm sort of neutral in this. I own both, and I love both for different reasons. I'll say 3DS has more titles, most of which are incredibly good, while Vita has less, and only some of them are good, but the good ones it does have are really worth it.

I'd say I use the 3DS more, because I get the whole DS library without having to pay again, but I like the Vita for PS+ and it's instant game collection.

I like to play on the Vita more than the 3DS.
Yet I have lots of DS games and a couple 3DS ones but only Persona 4 on the Vita.
The Vita has a better shape, bigger screen, dual sticks and everything the 3DS has.

Though I hate the web browser on both. It's shit.
3DS: Pages that stop loading get locked until you reload. Why can't they allow us to see what's been loaded. Sometimes it's like just a small gif image that stops everything.
Vita: Half the time I get an error and I can't use the browser at all.

Quote
Recap: in the wake of the IGDA party dancer scandal, unsubstantiated Twitter rumors surface about women being paid to be in the VIP room of a Mojang party, apparently too attractive and numerous to possibly be there of their own volition (sexism much?). Mojang flatly deny claim and the source of the rumors is rooted out, essentially a game of Twitter Telephone, but a delusional feminist extremist crusader decrees that Notch is still at fault for people thinking that they were paid for even if they weren't, and that he should take some sort of action in reparation. Arthur Gies takes her side and promotes her on Twitter.

The OP is permed for going on a witch hunt (in conjunction with insane extremist posts afterwards) and refusing to update his thread after the attempt at scandal fell apart. Libelous, agenda-driven bullshit.

Arthur Gies is officially the most disreputable person in the enthusiast press.

The ending nearly killed me in ecstasy~
torrented
didn't like.

I don't like bioshock, thats my opinion.
I'm not a fan of the combat and gameplay, turns me off from the whole thing.
Infinite may have a good story, though its super freaking obvious probably, but its the same old gameplay. I didn't enjoy it.
Columbia looked great though.

So Persona 4 is really popular now? Not trying to be a hipster, but it used to be a niche thing. I'm curious as to why I'm seeing it everyone talking about it now. Was it the anime?
Persona has always been poplar, hell, persona 3 got 3 versions. The original, an after story, and then a PSP version which had a female MC and the story was slightly altered to match.

Persona 4 is pretty poplar, and Persona 5 is gonna sell like hot cakes cuz it takes place AFTER high school and deals with depression and stuff.

yea
all 6 of them

i own black ops 2, red dead redemption, and gran turismo 5

i dont even like GT5 anymore
sooooooooo
You need to expand your horizon and stop judging games on their covers >:(

The reason they weren't in charge of this one is cuz it was meant as a facebook game, but then EA realized they wouldn't make much profit off of facebook and ported it to PC last minute. Thats why towns are so small and it lacks many features of previous installments. It's a FB game!

It's not SC5, it's Sim City. It's a reboot, not a sequel.

Even without the DRM it's a meh game. It has less features than Sim City 4 and it's smaller and the AI dumb. Also, tropico is better.

It was at it's final phase, 5% health, everyone but Slippy had to retreat (So I might as well be alone).  Then, just when I'm about to launch the bomb I picked up, it hits me and I die.
It was my last life as well ;-;

We've been there mang. Thought I havent been there in any recent games, cuz they give me more weapons and ammo than is really necessary to fight a boss. Deus Ex HR being the worst. Ammo scarce throughout entire game, last level, weapons and ammo fucking everywhere, and not a single enemy to use them on, and then the boss dies in 2~ seconds if you have the laser rifle. the fuck bruh?

Well like I said before, boss fights were outsourced to another company, and so they never made a way to knock them out or something, so they had to give you a bunch of weapons for the boss fight cuz there are people who will be doing a pacifist run and wont have any weapons to kill the boss with. :\

I had to settle with pairing up the avatar with Chrom to keep lolchrom out of danger and only deploying them. Stand on a forest tile for the evade, equip Book of Naga for the +5 Def/res and 1-2 range, hit end turn until I win. xD

Ok, I'm starting to like Star Trek Online, though it still has a few glaring flaws that happen to be the same reasons I don't like most MMOs.

The biggest being that it's hard to get immersed.  Almost every MMO I've played has a main quest that refers to you as someone unique to everyone else (In this, that would be owning your own ship even though you're only a Lieutenant..).
Also, there's always the one player that always shows up and does something stupid that doesn't fit.  It could be something such as having their character running around in their Underwear (Thankfully you can't do that in this, unlike in most other MMOs :P), or naming their ship the "USS RAINBOW DASH" (I've already seen 2 ships with that name).

The only MMOs I've had a lot of fun in were ones with dedicated RP servers, although those were always ruined by people overreacting over the smallest things (Like once when I was playing SWTOR, and someone was yelling at me in the chat for stopping to sort my inventory during a quest because it looked unrealistic (ironically, he did this all OOC)).

I meant, Kimishima is only getting promoted to NCL managing director, Iwata is still NCL CEO, he's just also taking control as the CEO for NOA as well.

I think they aren't having a large conference this year, instead they're having a few small ones throughout the event. Some might be for business, others for games.

People always complain.
But what's for sure is that Smash will make WiiU sell. Whatever anyone thinks, everyone must agree on this.

Also, I remember them saying there would be a playable demo of both Smash at E3 right?
I just remembered that so a Fall release is possible.

I just hope they make it for the 3DS too, because I'm pretty set on not getting a WiiU. But cross-connectivity with both of those systems would be GOD-LIKE.

They're making it.
I just don't think it will be the same game.
To enjoy the complete experience, you'll have to get the WiiU one and the 3DS one.
That's what I think from the info we have.

I caught it with a dark ball (the ones best suited for caves) cuz I ran out of great balls. I dislike ultra balls cuz the color is so boring, so I use poke/great balls to catch my legendary pokemenz.

It happens to everyone who games too much, you burn yourself out on them. Just stop playing games for a week or two and do other things in the mean time, then try gaming.

Depends on how much you pay for it
For 2.49, **** its a steal, it can occupy you more than most games for 2.49, alone, just screwing around in single player if you got the imagineation.

Or you could try the Trouble in terrorist town, RP servers, Jailbreak servers, zombie servers for some multiplayer fun, and some of them you don't even have to talk to people :D. It's like a single player game, expect everyone's an NPC :D

Sony co-owns Blu-ray. Plus you could buy a blu-ray dvd player for half the cost of a new PS3, and most likely a quarter of what the PS4 will cost. It's not that big a deal.

it will make them fail cuz if they stick with dvds, they wont be able to match the content of the ps4 and require more disks, which will raise game prices, or if they go proprietary like wii/u, they wont be able to be a cheap home media center cuz having dvd hardware and whatever hardware will make it expensive.

which is something you can get on any internet enabled device.
Phones
Tablets
computers
Consoles

and focus on what gaming consoles are for?
GAMES.

Gaming should be about Games
not if the Ps4 is gonna kik xboxes ass or whatever because it has blu ray

The point here is that they can't make a media box without Blu-rays.
Because Blu-rays own the video market right now.
Also, Starrk has a point. There's a lot more room on a Blu-ray than a DVD. So either they go proprietary and all the movies you wanna watch on it you gotta buy them again or they stay with DVDs and split games on DVDs.
Though they could do both like it is right now I think. But the point still is that DVDs aren't HD so you couldn't play HD disks on the media box without buying the proprietary copy.
Just a reminder: The fact that the next Xbox is a media box is just a rumor.

Also, about Bioware, Mass Effect and Dragon Age are both fantastic games. I want them to make Star Wars games.
And anyway, it cannot be worse than Lucasarts. ;)

KOTOR, Mass Effect, Mass Effect 2 (Arguably), and Dragon Age Origins were good.

SWTOR, Mass Effect 3 (Arguably), and Dragon Age 2 were terrible.

The terrible ones being their three most recent games, so I don't have much hope for any further games they make...

I know it doesn't make up for SimCity, but at the very least it's nice that they bothered to care for once.

Maxis team members on reddit's /r/SimCity are very friendly I find.

It's not just that, it's that the site doesn't even care about it's own rules, so many times you'll see someone or a group start one for something when they obviously have the money to do it and yet they'll make thousands of dollars from rabid fans.'
You'll have millionaires starting Kickstarters and using their daughter to prey on ignorant people's good will.

The only MMO I had fun with was Mabinogi, mostly cuz I made friends with higher level folk who let me run dungeons with them, gain enough EXP to level up like 5 times each, and never had to do any fighting, though I did heal and bring supplies cuz thats what I was good at. I even bought a burr at one point and continued harvesting gold, then the updates made it impossible to run on my computer at the time, and I had to quit, and when I got this one, it changed so much and not many people still played in the beginner areas so I lost interest. :c

It is SR3, the same city with maybe a couple new buildings, it's literally DLC for SR3, but your paying full game price for a couple new features. You're helping make people think it's ok to turn DLC into full on games! D:

They made it into a full game.
Also, what's really different from Episodes from Liberty City?
I swear Episodes has less new content.
It's the same town with a new story.
And they still charged 60$ for DLC. But since it's Rockstar, it's ok?
SR4 has tons of new skills and weapons, a new story, a new warped Steelport, etc.
No, SR4 will be nice and well worth the money.

Because Episodes from Liberty City was DLC first, and they packed it on it's own later.
They just packed the DLC together as a 30$ game.
Sort of how you can buy Red Dead Redemption's Undead Nightmare seperate.
or how Far Cry: Blood Dragon is standalone.

TLAD and TBOGT where downloadable DLC, they pakced it together as their own game about a year after TBOGT's release and sold it like that. For 30$, which is equivlant to both DLC stand alone's price put together.

It was never 60$, I know because Rushad bought it on launch day. He got it for 34.99.
Thats the same if I bought both DLC on Xbox.

Saints Row 4 was orginally DLC, but they decided it to make it into a fully priced game. For 60$.

Episodes Of Liberty City is the 2 DLC from GTA IV, packed together to be able to be played without owning a copy of the orginal GTA IV. for $35!
Saints Row 4 is something that was supposed to be Saints Row 3 DLC, but they just dropped the idea of DLC, and made it into a fully fledged standalone game.
FOR 60$!

Yeah, it's based on DLC maybe, I get that.
But it still has more stuff than Episodes. I thought it was 60$ at launch. I may be in the wrong. I got it for 20$ a month ago.
And when they say they made it into a full game, that means there's more content than the DLC.
There are tons of other companies who release games that are exactly the same yet you pay full price every time.
SR4 looks like it will have tons of new stuff yet everyone bashes it cause they said it was originally DLC?

It was DLC. The Devs wanted a superhero DLC for Saints Row 3.
When they where making it, THQ went bankrupt.
So the new company decided to make it into a fully fledged 60$ game so they can make money out of it.
It has the same graphics. It looks like the same activites. Same Cars same this same that.
Thats why it looks like DLC.

It was DLC. The Devs wanted a superhero DLC for Saints Row 3.
When they where making it, THQ went bankrupt.
So the new company decided to make it into a fully fledged 60$ game so they can make money out of it.
It has the same graphics. It looks like the same activites. Same Cars same this same that.
Thats why it looks like DLC.

Point taken.
I still want it though.

Wouldnt your money be better spent on that asuka figure than 60 dollar DLC?

psh bethesda games on console, thats good way to waste money.

I was never interested in Persona.

I'm just going to see whats more popular with people I actually play with.
Most are sticking to xbox, even though its not out, so unless their mind changes its probably gonna be xbox.

It's pretty a fun game. During the day its a life sim/dating sim where your friendships give you power ups and during the night it's a dungeon action RPG.

It's very plot heavy and a lot of relatable characters.

It's a turn-based RPG. Dungeon crawling style.
But brought up in a more Action-like way than the SMT games.

But not in the style of most JRPGs.  Zohaib doesn't mind if it comes from Japan, he just doesn't like the stereotypical Japanese ones.

Although tbh, I don't even know if Zohaib has played Demon Souls/Dark Souls.

So if DS was exactly the same gameplay wise but with an anime style, would it be a JRPG then?
I just don't get modern western gamers vendetta against anime styled games or Japan inspired.

Because Anime styled games cant have crysis tier graphics because of the anime styling, so people dont like it.

Hand drawn graphics.

Also, Persona 5 may very well be super great looking since P4 already had amazing graphics.

well the problem is with facial expressions in a lot of anime styled games dont translate well when you push them to like Crysis tier graphics, so they tend to make up for the meh graphics with ART and CREATIVITY instead of REALISM, which zohaib doesnt like. :c

TF2 is one of my favoruite games.

http://www.joystiq.com/2013/05/15/gran-turismo-6-officially-announced/

http://www.allgamesbeta.com/2013/05/gran-turismo-6-officially-announced.html

Gran Turismo 6 revealed, coming to Ps3 This Holiday.
Probably like, Holiday 2017, if it was more realistic considering how much they delay games.

To be completely honest.
I was utterly disspointed by GT5. It was half-assed. 75% of the cars in the game where just GT4 and Gran Turismo PSP models smacked into there.
the Premium cars could barely be modified. The game was too easy, and the multiplayer was horrible and laggy.
I give praise to the graphics. Gameplay too. But it wasn't worth all those years of waiting.
I mean, 2 of the premium cars where the same car, expect one had red seats (Suzuki Swift). It was incredibly lazy.

Forza 4 totally knocked this one out into the ballpark. 700 cars on release, and all of them kept the same content, graphics, and customization through and through each model. DLc probably made the final to almost 1000. Sure the graphics may not have been good, but the multiplayer was more fun. The cars where better choices (Instead of 50 skylines, there was 1 Skyline for each generation of Skyline, and only GTRs, making the selection better) and overall had a better car choice roster. 2010 Camaro, 2010 Challenger, 2012 300C for American cars. '94 NSX, '89 Skyline GTR, '84 Toyota Corolla GTS for Japanese. 64' Gullwing Coupe, every generation of BMW M5 and M3, More Ferraris and Lamborghinis than GT5. And all these cars could be modified. With most of them having body parts like bumpers, spoilers, hoods, rims changed, all could be coloured, made with designs (I made a Ford Van that said "BUIZELS SUCK" in one of my screenshots), most having engine swaps (Toyota Supra engine in a Yaris? With Twin Turbo? fuk ye).

As much as I hate to say it, one of my favoruite gaming series, GRan Turismo, has been outclassed, and I'm scared for this one too.

tl;dr GT5 wasn't as good as it should have been. Forza 4 beat it.

I learned about this a few weeks ago when /o/ tried to guess what car was under the car blanket thing and they chose a new Nissan tree fiddy, and considering polys hard on for Nissan, they were right.

I will reserve any hopes until I see some gameplay and they show that they updated the car list with more premium cars like Forza and added some level of customization, cuz right now any NFS game is better than GT5.

How is Zelda anime? It doesn't really take it's style from anything. All I can think of is AlttP/LA and OoS/OoA but that was only in the art.

Which one? Though OoT or MM don't look anime in the slightest. TP..? Some characters, but that game had crazy designs everywhere..
There's WW but it's style is too original to be considered anime inspired.
I don't see how it's anime inspired at all, it's too goofy. It seems like it's own style to me.

As for FF, how was it impossible? The games had portraits and art and was pretty much 100% percent Amano style until VII switched to generic anime mostly.

Anime style includes lots of styles.
Anime artists use many distinct visual styles.

And no, I don't mean to say it includes everything. But OoT and MM are both anime styled. In fact, they're the best examples in the Zelda series.

This is just backing my point that nintendo stopped caring about games, its just so out of place for them to claim the copyright.
I mean, its free advertising.

I'd understand if it was Music, or a Movie, but no, it's orginal content involving the game, each LP is different in it's own way, its not stealing anything. IMO it's wrong for them to claim it, also it's completely not nintendo. I'd understand if MS, Sony or EA did this, but Nintendo?

I'd understand if it was Music, or a Movie, but no, it's orginal content involving the game, each LP is different in it's own way, its not stealing anything. IMO it's wrong for them to claim it, also it's completely not nintendo. I'd understand if MS, Sony or EA did this, but Nintendo?

sigh.

Saw this article earlier today.
I thought the same damn thing as you. It's crazy stupid.
And then, there's Sony that included a Share button just for the people who like to share their plays.

It seems like Nintendo is doing the opposite of everyone else and the direction they're taking is ridiculous.

Seriously, that's the stuff I hate the most...

Nintendo's not stopping you from uploading Nintendo content, so Sony including a share button is irrelevant, you wont be making money off ads through that. (Sony may even put their own ads on them)
Nintendo just doesn’t want you making money from their games. It's kinda questionable, but not entirely. The only anger should be from the LPers who do it for a living.

As part of our on-going push to ensure Nintendo content is shared across social media channels in an appropriate and safe way, we became a YouTube partner and as such in February 2013 we registered our copyright content in the YouTube database. For most fan videos this will not result in any changes, however, for those videos featuring Nintendo-owned content, such as images or audio of a certain length, adverts will now appear at the beginning, next to or at the end of the clips. We continually want our fans to enjoy sharing Nintendo content on YouTube, and that is why, unlike other entertainment companies, we have chosen not to block people using our intellectual property.

But they try to take away the money aspect, I find the sharing is the benefit to nintendo and the money is a benefit to the LPers.
It's a win win.
Now nintendo kinda just gets everything.

So I just bought Game Dev Tycoon for 8 Bucks, and this shiz is AWESOME! I almost went bankrupt making a new game engine but my racing sim and space sim sold so much I made over 1M dollars and it's still selling like hotcakes. HELLS YEAH! D:<


My earlier Prison simulation game, Bite The Pillow, received mediocre reviews but sold well enough to keep me afloat, and fund my game engine (cost me 130K to include all the available options), but it worked out. You guys need to buy this or try the demo they have on their site. IT'S FUCKING AWESOME!

My Space Simulator, Space Sim 2020 Made me 2.4Mil and set a standard, and then after many finacial troubles, the Sequel bailed me out and I made another 2.4Mil, but I went bankrupt trying to make a sequel to another previous big hit when the bank wanted their loan paid and put me in the red right as I was almost finished. I would have at least 10Mil with it. I had 3D graphics, Stereo sounds, Multiplayer, Steering Wheel support, and much more. :<

You should look into getting a PSP for P3P, cuz it's good, and you can play as a female which has it's own bonds to make and you get more backstory to a lot of the characters that you wouldnt get in regular P3.

Also, FES aint fun. They took out everything that made it fun and just made it a generic dungeon crawler, but you do get to find out what happened after P3.

I wish I knew about that before I bought P3
I just saw it at GameStop the other day (i nearly screamed when i saw it. nobody sells P3 here) and bought it

Just download P3P, cuz it is still kinda expensive cuz it's relatively new.

Well, FES is basically a standalone game that takes place after the original P3. You play as aiges and stuff happens, but theres no social links anymore, no more fun activities, the characters are all depressed and heartless jerks, and all you do if grind, cuz it's almost entirely about dungeon crawling. I got really bored of it really fast...

Save up 5-6Mil before leaving the garage, and dont do medium games unless you have 100K followers, or use a publishing contract for medium games so you dont spend as much making it.

also, here's a guide for how to not suck at games.

My best hit got every rating at 10 and got me about 3 mil.
But then I released crap after crap and I burnt all my moneyz. Now I live in a cardboard box. ._.

After making a big hit, DONT MAKE ANOTHER GAME!

Research a couple new features, and make a new game engine with those new features, and then make a game with those features, but only if they will serve to make the game better, dont go adding moral choices to a sim, unless it's a surgery sim.

Basically, you have to beat your scores each game, so if your Design/Tech scores are lower, the games score will be lower, if it's the same/similiar, it will do ok, but not great, but if it's better, it will do better, and depending on how much higher your design/tech scores are compared to your last game, it may even make the game a huge hit.

Also, learn what system likes what games and what demographic plays the system to help your game sell more.

You all know that Game Dev Tycoon is a ripoff of Game Dev Story, and that the creator has some of the dumbest views on piracy on the planet?

To see how many people would pirate the game, and how much it would affect sales, he put a BROKEN VERSION of the game on pirate bay. It was broke in a way that meant it would say your game is being hampered by piracy, then not give you much profit. The creator was then shocked to see that nobody went on to buy the game after trying it through piracy.

So, he did this:

-Put game on Pirate Bay to show how many people pirate
-Made it a broken version that would make your in game studio bankrupt insanely fast
-Wonders why nobody is buying it after trying it through piracy.

I lold hard when I heard about that, and then I looked on the forum and the pirates were asking for help with it and getting called out on their piracy. I mean theres a pretty decent sized demo to play, no need to pirate.

This is quite fun, I might buy it.  Though my company is in a bit of a pickle, my only games that sell well are my Anthros and Starweasel games.
(Which is funny because I expected those series to sell terribly xD)

I prefer to figure that stuff out on my own.

But anyways, I bought it, had a lot of fun with the Lite version and I want to bring my company to the modern era ^_^ :D


Edit: I installed the game, and it's a lot harder than the demo was ;-;

It's that last point for a perfect 10 that's just SO hard to get.

At least yours a Post-Ap RPG.
My Kiwi Rod is just a Fantasy Adventure for kids on the Game Boy.

I've been most successful at creating 2D games for portable devices.
Until I reached 2D Graphics V5.
V5 just saps all your creating resources... I should have kept V4 and went on 3D.
But my 3D was never welcomed because I was still on V1.

After moving into my new office, I screwed up and went bankrupt.  So I'm trying again.  I'm a little mad that I got all 9s for a game, then it crashed.  So I loaded a save from just before I released it and got all 6s >_>

Dont move until you save up at least 5Mil, because you will need it, as employees and new game engines and research add up so fast.

Also, make a game named Pong.


Dont forget to train after each game so your stats go up a little bit and help keep your games innovative and good which helps drive sales and keep you afloat.

My most successful game was Dr. Life Saver, but it was done under a publisher (I was broke and it was a last ditch effort) and so I didnt make a whole lot from it, but enough to get me back on my feet. It's sequel did bretty gud, but I think me hiring 8Mil+ worth of new employees and using a new, better game engine caused it to do so well.

So true

How is PS4 crap? It has the best specs, best games announced for it, and the controller is bretty gud.
Well for $1000 today, I could buy a PS4 level built PC, and once the Ps4 is announced that will be about... $400-$600.
I get Netflix, Blu Ray, Etc. Etc. Et.c in all that, plus extra computer customizablity.
If I want a controller it's $60 to get an xbox one, or I could just get a blue tooth and use the sixaxis.
Along with that garbage about "Pc Gaming master race"

Sony still has that stupid "Share" button, and the graphics aren't MIND-BLOWING, they are just better than what we have now.
The console leap from Xbox 360/Ps3 to PS4/Xbox One wasn't that great. It wasn't that amazing. Neither where.
Consoles will be crap until they go back to focusing on gaming over media.
Sony did do much better, but both where not mindblowingly good.

Because we've reached a point in time where we cant adequately cool high performance parts for cheap yet, so to make a huge technological leap like you want you'd have to pay a few grand for a console that did that, but you wouldnt, no one would.

The Share button only uploads 7 minute clips, so say you manage to do something really cool or some humorous glitch happened, you could upload it, in the background, because it has an extra CPU for background tasks like downloading games, or uploading things. Heck, you can even play games while they're still downloading with the PS4 thanks to the extra CPU.


The problem with PC gaming, is you have to keep upgrading your PC to handle the next game, which adds up, where as with a console, you just buy the game. While the graphics wont be all crysis tier realistic, they will still be good and you will be a couple hundred richer for not upgrading.


And with gamers enjoying social media and lets plays, the share button is actually a good thing right now. Sony actually paid attention to what gamers like right now, and they are delivering it in a 400ish dollar console.

The PS4's PC equivalent hardware is midrange, the reason it looks so mindblowing and better than a average gaming PC is because PS3/360 has been holding PC back with quick ports so most games don't fully use the power of the PC.  PS4 is closed box so it's optimized with tweaks and tricks to make it look amazing.

The lets play market is already overloaded with people doing them, even you did one, adding a share button so people can upload 7 minute clips isnt going to hurt it anymore, especially because no one watches anything less than 15 minute lets play videos unless it's funny like a glitch or bug happened, or someone manages to pull off some amazing kill streak or something. It's mostly going to be used and seen by gamer clans showing off how MLG pro they are at COD.

PC is holding PC back. There's too much crap to code for with a PC and you cant do any neat tricks to make your product better because one trick wont work on all PC hardware.

Games wont ever take advantage of PC power. Ever.

Welcome to the internet, the home of all opinions.
I personally don't think the consoles are all that great because recently I haven't been phased by gaming news outside of GTA V.
I was disappointed by the many disadvantages the Xbox has to me, a person that practically only buys used games and plays in a cramped room.
I am also disspointed that Forza 5 is out of my reach because I will have to suffer with a console that doesn't meet my needs just to play one of my favorite gaming franchises.
I don't like seeing xbox hoping on EA like that, it just seems so "corparate". I hate EA, it's alot of what wrong with gaming, money money money, no gameplay. They repeat the same games but smash DLC into our faces like we should buy it or we are disadvantaged. If I don't have the money, I don't want to freaking hear it. Microsoft teaming up with that noise is just bad news.

It's casual. Like Microsoft. Like Windows 8.

I wanted the Xbox 8. Destroy the boundaries between PC and console and have all Xbox games be playable on Windows 8.

Seriously, I cannot understand why you are all always so displeased with news.
Except for Pokemon news of course...
Sony has their own app to go with the PS4 launch that will turn any mobile device into a PS4 glass, allowing you to buy and download games to your PS4 through your phone, so if a game comes out, you can use your phone at work to download it, and have it ready to go on your PS4 when you get home. It also has more features that I cant remember cuz I skimmed through the Game Informer articles.


PS4 will also allow indy games to be self published for free (you still have to buy a 500 dollar dev kit first) on the PSN store so indy games, which is what the market is leaning towards right now, will be heavily featured in the PS4.

There's even going to free to play games on the PS4 this time.


The fact is the PS4 is doing everything it can to make it Pro games while Xbox is making the new xbox pro EA.


Also, netflix sucks in canada because, and this is what netflix said, your internet is just as bad as most 3rd world countries. It costs too much for bandwidth so they dont make much money, so they cant buy licenses for new things, and so their lineup blows. Blame your ISP companies, not netflix.

Lets look at this postivley!

Remember how my decsiion was mostly biased on what my freinds would buy?

Xbox was such a flop, everyone wants a PS4! This is glorious! Glorious!

I can play with all my freinds. I won't ever not have someone to play with.

Wow this is actually making me smile :D
Just think of all the games you'll get to play! Seriously, the PS4 has so many games lined up and many indy games and free ones as well, and you'll be able to show off how MLG you are to your friends with the share button! :D

This couldn't be more wrong.
I have pretty cheap Internet with unlimited bandwidth.
And it's my 3rd ISP.
The 2nd one featured the same stuff but was unstable.
Let's not talk about my first one.


But yeah, Xbox One looks great, nice features.
PS4 looks perfect~

Pretty cheap for canadians is fucking expensive here in murika, and for business class internet, and one that will use terrabytes, if not yottabyes of internet a month, it will be expensive and costs will add up fast.

So PS4 may have streaming options cuz in GI it said it can allow spectating. I dunno if it means your PSN friends can watch you suck at COD or if anyone can.

It also has a feature where if you cant get passed a spot in a game, your friends with a PS4 can remotely play the game for you and beat it for you.

Also, the triggers are finally shaped so you fingers dont slip off if you use them! :D

They're doing a Direct which will be shown on screens at E3 on the 11th.
So, it's basically a conference but not live.
And they have a new 3D Mario, a new Mario Kart, the new Smash, probably Pokemon X&Y, maybe SMT X FireEmblem and SMT IV.
They have lots of stuff planned.

All sequels, and the mario ones will be exactly like every other one with one new feature. They cant keep relying on mario to sell games and systems, they need to start taking chances and making new IPs to go with the classics, cuz crap gets old. It's why disney is buying up everyone elses IPs, mickeys getting old and needs a vacation.

I think it may be some games will do that.

Also, >Most if not all of those are for the 3DS

Only Galaxy 2 took all of Galaxy and added new features. Other 3D Mario games have always been completely reworked and each time the new puzzles are extremely entertaining.
Same with Mario Kart. It's always new stuff.

Also, Mario, Mario Kart, Smash, SMT X Fire Emblem all on WiiU.
Smash, SMT IV and Pokemon on 3DS.

It's equally split.

Their June 11th Direct is gonna be awesome and will finally get WiiU back on the market.

You obviously never played a mario game before. The setting may be different, but they are the same game underneath. It's like FC3 and FC3:Blood Dragon. It looks different, but underneath it's the same game, and nintendo has been doing that with mario, brawl, and kart and more for way too long, and people are getting kind of tired of playing what is effectively the same game each year. They need new IPs to mix things up and maybe give the current line up a breather. Instead of releasing a new game each year, maybe release one every other year, so they have more time to add more content and let people be more excited about the new releases instead of being all like, oh hey, a new mario game, they can be all like, aw shiz son, new mario, look at this content!

The WiiU will never be back on the market, not as long as that tablet exists...

It's like Bioshock: Infinite, yes you have to kinda escort the other person, but they are more of a benefit than a hassle.

I thought you of all people would know, since your sony fangirl.

It's a Ps3 exclusive, made by the makers of Uncharted. The end of the world happened through a invasive plant species that overgrows and infects people, but it isn't really a zombie game since the infected aren't as big of an enemy as other survivors.
You play as Joel. Joel and Ellie (14 year old girl) trek across the united states to look for safety. The story is supposedly really amazing and compelling, and Ellie's AI is a bit like Elizabeths in Bioshock, she gives you ammo, supplies and stuff so you don't have to search, and she can distract enemies and stuff to help you.

Okay, so I downloaded PPSSPP to see if it'd actually work on my computer. Amazingly, I got 25+ FPS and the game actually works, which shows how well they've updated as it didn't only a few months ago.

So after playing it for a while on Square Enix's free game streaming site, I bought Hitman Blood Money.  I love this game so much :D
Free streaming site?

Make sure you play it in the right order, or it will spoil the story and not make much sense.

Also, you will hate it with a passion by the time you get to aquas story.

Square Enix set up a site where you can play some of their games for free on the browser.  You just have to watch ads every 30 minute or so.

Not a day, after the 20 minutes are up, you just watch another ad.

It's quite a good way to try out some of their games without resulting to Piracy.

You need to play BBS first because it explains so much about the KH universe and who/what everything is.

25FPS should be more than enough for it, you just need the story to have everything suddenly make some sense.

I understood it perfectly, but now that I think about it, some of the other stories do have slight spoilers for the others, and I agree, Aqua's story was hard as hell because you aren't used to not being an all out physical attacker (she's more magic based). But it's still a really fun game once you know how to use the mechanics and stuff.

Terra, ventus, aqua.

Aqua wasn't hard as in difficulty, but hard as in I just played through those levels 2 times already, FUCKING GIVE ME SOMETHING NEW!

I played it Terra>Aqua>Ventus.

Aquas spoils everything and ventus has a lot of spoilers. Even the devs wanted people to play it in a certain order to get the most out of the story, otherwise you can just play aquas and understand a lot of what happened.


Also, did anyone ever use that ability thing where you like, fuse with a disney character and gained their powers for a short time? Cuz I tried it once and never touched it again cuz it was so useless.

They will have anti piracy measures like on the PS3, but they wont have DRM because everytime they tried it, everyone got mad and stopped buying their products outright because they were basically a hackers wetdream.

They also stated before that they wont ban used games on the PS4.

It's not a single-man thing.
He was one of of the devs working on the Rift project.

The company named Oculus is making it, and Rift is the product.
thus, Oculus Rift

the ball collects things, it like sticks to the ball.

there are missions

i.e. "Get it this big"
"get it this big in a time limit"

etc.

its quite basic but its fun.

the story barely makes sence.

In Katamari Damacy, the king ate all the planets in a binge-eating spree, and you (the prince) have to roll up Katamari Balls so he can create new planets out of them.

The game is like "weird-japanese", so the story really makes no sense, and doesn't have much significant value.

Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon
Mario Kart 7
New Super Mario Bros 2

If you want an incredibly hard RPG, you should get SMT IV.
Though I heard Fire Emblem was impossibly hard at any level but Easy.

I think I'm going to play Fire Emblem now. What was the point of pre-ordering if I haven't been playing? :P

I might get SMT4, but I think I'll emulate the older ones first. I need to complete Persona 3 as well, and I want to get Devil Survivor: Overclocked on 3DS.

Aw that's lame, but it's cool that you payed off your house.

I think I did that once, but I set the clock back so I could play at three in the morning while the game thinks it's still noon.

Literally the only characters i know from Sega are from Sonic.
Tails, Knuckles, Shadow, Sonic, Dr. Robotnik, Rouge, Amy,

I don't know anything Namco-Bandai. Other than like Dragonball-Z, Soulcaliber, Katamari, etc.

Too bad for you.
You should really get into .hack//.
It is awesome.
And Kite and Blackrose are epic. It's awesome they're included in there.
And Morrigan is just too hot~
And adding in Megaman and Tales and God Eater is beyond awesome.

You should really get to know Namco-Bandai.
They're like number 1 toy creator in Japan.
Most of their franchises are amazing.

When I hear Bandai, I think Tamagotchi, then I remember my awesome childhood :)

I'm a little annoyed that Capcom still haven't put classic mega man into any of their fighting games, but other than that, the roster looks pretty good.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_Crossing

In all Animal Crossing games, the player assumes the role of a human character, who moves into a rural village populated with anthropomorphic animals and lives there indefinitely. Gameplay is open-ended: players have no defined objectives, but are instead encouraged to spend their time in the village performing any number of activities, which include collecting items, planting plants or other items, and socializing with the village's residents. All Animal Crossing games are played in real time, utilizing the system's internal clock and calendar. Thus, passage of time in the game world reflects that in reality, as well as the current season and time of day. Some in-game events, such as holidays or the growth of a tree, occur at certain times or require some duration of time to have passed.

If you don't already have them, Bethesda games are pretty boss on PC, with the great moddability and such.

And there's also The Sims, but avoid TS3 like it's the plague (Unless you like advertisements, lag, and microtransactions in your paid for games).

Well, you can never go wrong with Valve's games (And not their competitive multiplayer games like CS and TF2, but stuff like Half-Life, Portal, and Left 4 Dead).

And if you liked Blood Dragon and have a good enough PC for it, you can get Far Cry 3.
Civilization V is also great (But if you have a Nvidia card, avoid it.  It hates Nvidia drivers).

If they were trying to fix things, they'd do a public announcement saying we heard you, were gonna go back to making the best games ever. All their doing is trying too fool everyone with old names and LGBT support so people will forget how bad they are to their games and their employees.

I've been noticing a pattern though.

Ever since they got voted the "Worst Company In America" they have
- apologized about the DRM in sim city 5
- made maxis it's own again
- Fixed Battlefield 4
- Announced games fan wanted
- the Sims 4 is Single Player Offline only.


Since they got a new CEO, we should give them a chance. things may or may not change. We can only hope.
They haven't released a new game since these events, so we can't say if they are bad or not.

I never heard about EA apologizing about the DRM and just fixing the server issues with sim city instead.

How did they fix BF4?

They announced game titles, we've yet to see if they are any good or not.

I know nothing about sims.

Who's the new CEO?


Also, theyve been voted worst company for a long time now, it's just this last year their pro LGBT campaign wasnt enough to hide that fact.

i think your behind
the LGBT was before they got voted worst.

They fixed sim city

That is true.

The Sims 3, current condition
- in-game ads all over the place
- microtransactions shoved in your face
- unwanted social features
- social stuff causes major lag
- Made By Maxis

Maxis and EA and showing that DRM is stupid, so the Sims 4 is going to be single player only.

KH3 wont even begin development until FF13Versus is finished, and thats been in development for what, 13 years now? So yeah, PS4, and even PS5 probably wont have KH3.

Well they did finally finish FF13 versus so I was right :x


And nobody gave a shit.

KH has always been Sony and Nintendo. Why did they feel the need to release it on Xbox One?
Because now that Xbox and PS4 have similar hardware, it isnt hard to port them, and SE is all about the money nowadays, they dont care about their fans :<

Well to be honest, I can honestly say unless it's an old game, I never buy a used game. I'm always online, so that 24 hour thing is no problem. Kinect could be a problem when I'm in party chat and it still has a mic feature because there is a lot of yelling in my house, but I suppose I could just turn off my console for a bit.

In short, I personally have no problem with any new thing Microsoft is doing. I was going to get both systems but when I found out KH3 was on both xbox and Playstation, I decided to just get an xbox.

The Kinect watches you and apparently that's legal with that new US act.
I don't want that. That's fucking creepy.

Really Halo 5 and Forza 5 are the only reasons TO get the new xbox.

Well see that's the b-e-a-utiful thing about New Jersey. Everyone's too stupid to look up actual facts about the new consoles. For example, everyone in my school. They don't care what the playstation or xbox have or doesn't have. If it can read a game and play it, they'll buy it.

I aint. It looks ugly and no one will want it as it will clash with the decor, but the PS4 is bretty gud, so people will buy it. The PS4 is also cheaper, and most xbros are poor so they will either buy the PS4 or wait a few decades to buy the X1.

I'm expecting 5 million, but I'm hoping for more like 3 million as more and more people learn how bad X1 is. I mean, all sony has to do is a run a campaign about the no game sharing, no game selling and all that other stuff and X1 will sell so badly.

EVE is very different, think of it like X3 with a more realistic economy and other players.

And if you don't like that, you can try that TPS spinoff they made for the PS3 (Forget what it's called).  It's servers are shared with EVE, so you can interact with EVE players.

i hate mmos

Don't mix EVE with other MMOs.
It is on a whole different level.

Try Dust 514.
It's a MMO FPS in the Eve universe.
I tried it and it's pretty cool~
It's a bit complicated at first though.

Putting this together, it's going to Cost $2039 (approx)
Assuming that
World Of Keflings and Trails are 20$
Every release there is 60$
3DS games 40$
GTA V is $150
PS4 is $450 (50 will cover taxes and maybe a headset)
3DS is $199

You should cut a bit on that.

I narrowed mine to:

The Last of Us
Project X Zone
Shin Megami Tensei IV
Tales of Xillia
Saints Row IV
Grand Theft Auto V
Pokemon X
Watch_Dogs
Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem
Star Wars Battlefront
The Crew
The Division
Final Fantasy XV
Destiny
Mario Kart 8
Super Smash Bros WiiU/3DS
Zelda: A Link Between Worlds

Red is already preordered.
Green: I just preordered now at 33% off.
My bro will probably get these so I don't need to pay them.

Digimon World Dusk is not a game for the faint of heart -...-

My team building process is so complicated.

I'm leveling up both Wormon and Veemon together so I'll eventually have a Black Imperialdramon
I've got a Kokuwamon and a Haguromon in my DigiFarm that I'm going to DNA Digivolve into Centarumon which will hopefully make it to Black MegaGargomon
My Lopmon is training in the DigiFarm so that it'll hopefully digivolve into Evil Cherubimon one day
I've got a DotMirageGaogamon serving as a powerhouse; protecting my weaker Digimon
Training my Dorumon, just hoping it will at least make it to DoruGreymon
Training my Keramon to become a Diaboromon eventually, and maybe an Armageddomon

And all the while I'm fearing that their individiual Aptitude stats will be high enough so that they reach their desired digivolutions
Also, I have to keep going back to my home PC to train each of my Digimon, and that involves dealing with the difficulties of the storage system of the game which bugs me :P I wish it was at least as simple as the Pokemon PC system

The game devs were raving about the new PS controller and how awesome it is. The sticks have divets so your finger dont slide off, the triggers are more like the 360s so your finger dont fall off and they are easier to press, the sticks are shorter so more accurate and no finger touching, the dpad has been reworked I guess, and the touchpad is bretty gud and perfect for mini games and web browsing.

My aquarium in the museum is filling up fast, I caught a Hammerhead last night, though I lost another finned fish right before when I panicked.  :-\
I refuse to sell fish unless they have been donated, same with bugs. I sell fossils though, they are worth too much to pass up.

Also I may have gotten the two most ugliest villagers in the game move in the past two days. *sigh*

Digimon so far after multiple days of playing Dusk:

Diaboromon
Dorugoramon
BlackSaintGargomon
Antyllamon
Dinobeemon
MagnaAngemon
ExVeemon and Stingmon(In training to become Paildramon)

Dinobeemon and MagnaAngemon turned out to not have the aptitude to become Megas... I degenerated MagnaAngemon into Angemon to get some more aptitude, hopefully that will be enough. I might degenerate Dinobeemon, but I'm training another ExVeemon and Stingmon to become a Paildramon just in case.

The wiiu doesnt have next gen graphics, it doesnt even have current gen graphics, and being the second most expensive system, and being forced to use a tablet that only allows 3.5 hours of gaming and single player only experiences, it aint gonna do well for a long time.

Their first party titles cant save the WiiU, it can help it beat the Xone, but it aint gonna make it better.

It still is hated because:

Expensive
Tablet
Cant purchase extra tablets
Can only play for 3.5 hours with the tablet
Isnt even up to par with the 360 or PS3 processing power which means lesser graphics
gimmicks out the ass


The WiiU will always be hated, but if they make some decent games, it just wont be hated as much. It's like how zohaib is with the Xone, he will prolly buy one against his will so he can play his favorite games, and then be depressed that he wasted his money on such a bad console.

4.45 was released yesterday I think. Late at night.

Also wii u is the cheapest. Imo the middle one., but still the cheapest.

Nintendo has its own market. Its not competiting wih the big boys anymore. It has its own nintendo market.
People who want nintendo games will buy a wiiu. Thats all they need.

Imo Wii was the worst console since the virtual boy. But it sold good cuz of gimmicks and nintendo fans. The WiiU wont sell the best because its gimmick is outdated, but itll sell more than the xbox on games alone.
 
Its 349.99

Ps4 is 399.99
Xbox done is 499.99


Im not buying xbox one. Illjust play forza at one of the fanboy's houses.  Im buying a ps4 and  a new pc. No 3ds either. I need to figure out my priorities

I thought it was 449, my bad.

The WiiU is trying to compete with the big boys, that was even one of the selling points of it, we hard core gamer now, but with tablets!

Wii sucked but it was so very cheap that anyone could afford one, and the launch games werent that bad, and it was backward compatable and was all around a decent system for poor folk, the WiiU, is not a good system, and even in the UK where independent game shop owners gave the WiiU a price cut, it didnt sell well anyway.

Isnt forza on the PC as well though?

The other next gen consoles are priced more though. The tablet is quite resourceful imo. You don't need another tablet because they are very durable. And graphics shouldn't matter much to people, it looks all the same to me anyway.

Not by much.

The tablet is horrible.

What if you want to play with someone else at your house? What if the tablet breaks? You DO need another tablet.

They do matter, quite a lot, and people will notice and complain about them.

The other next gen consoles are priced more though. The tablet is quite resourceful imo. You don't need another tablet because they are very durable. And graphics shouldn't matter much to people, it looks all the same to me anyway.
WiiU isn't next gen.
It's next gen nintendo.
It's not competitive next gen.

Graphics don't matter, yes your right.
But the hardware does. Alot of Devs don't want to downgrade their games for the WiiU, thats why alot of games are on Pc/Xbox One/ Sony and not on the WiiU.
It's the same thing with the wii.

I know we all hate COD, but it's a good example of porting to a bad system. Compare COD: Modern Warfare 2 on the Wii to the Xbox or PS3, it's really bad.



ALSO BIG NEWS.

Nintendo doesn't need to compete; it's got its own market and succeeds with its first party stuff.  The Wii U is beginning to sell more and when the games come out, it'll be successful just like how the Wii was (admit or not, but the Wii sold a lot more than the other consoles).

One of the most ridiculous things you've said Steel.

Imo Wii was the worst console since the virtual boy.


Ok maybe a bit to far.
If it didn't have the backwards compability to the GC, then it'd be the worst imo.

I hated that garbage thing. Everything good with it had nothing to do with the console itself.
Decent Games.
GC Controller
GC games

I hated the motion controls, I hated how party-oriented it was because nobody ever wanted to play with me. I hated the channels.
I hated how it turned nintendo into gimmtendo. Gimmick this Gimmick that. I didn't like anything.
If i still had my GC, i'd throw it out.

Isnt forza on the PC as well though?
no
never was
never will

Worst thing about PC is it has no racing games at all. Keyboard is **** for racing games.

i had that game
it was ok

it's no Forza.

PC racing games are extremely garbage compared to Gran Turismo and Forza.
There aren't any racing simulators with enough arcade to be considered fun. They also don't have car customization, and not as many cars.
There aren't any quality racing games.

Redline doesn't even have real cars. And It has like 8-9 cars anyways.

They still are being a bit too vague, cuz it sounds like the Xone wont need internet connection, but the games probably will.

The wiiu doesnt have next gen graphics, it doesnt even have current gen graphics, and being the second most expensive system, and being forced to use a tablet that only allows 3.5 hours of gaming and single player only experiences, it aint gonna do well for a long time.

Their first party titles cant save the WiiU, it can help it beat the Xone, but it aint gonna make it better.
When was 4.45 released exactly? >.>

It still is hated because:

Expensive
Tablet
Cant purchase extra tablets
Can only play for 3.5 hours with the tablet
Isnt even up to par with the 360 or PS3 processing power which means lesser graphics
gimmicks out the ass


The WiiU will always be hated, but if they make some decent games, it just wont be hated as much. It's like how zohaib is with the Xone, he will prolly buy one against his will so he can play his favorite games, and then be depressed that he wasted his money on such a bad console.

You can play with the controller plugged in.
The graphics are better than current gen.
The newly announced games have graphics surpassing what was shown by Microsoft. Clearly next gen.

What do you mean by single player only?
Do you even know what the WiiU is?
Like, every game is multiplayer...

They don't sell new WiiU controller because you don't need any.
Every game is playable for up to 5 players.
4 have Wii Remotes and another plays asynchronously with the WiiU GamePad.
It's loads of fun. New Super Mario Bros cooperative is the most fun I've had in a while.

First party WILL save the WiiU. Nintendo has always been able to survive from their first party titles and will still do.
I don't know what you mean by they're trying to compete with the big boys.
Because clearly, that's why they didn't hold a conference at E3 this year.
They always do everything their own way.

The WiiU is powerful enough.
Just ask people who played Lego City Undercover.
No lag at all. The world is bigger than GTA. Awesome top of the line graphics. Great reflections.
Vast story and lots of collectibles.

You make it sound like you're still on with the pre-release rumors.
Get on with the news.
The only thing that sucks is that there's no game on it.
But lots were just announced so it'll get right back on track.



Also, about the PS3 update, it's okay now.
You can update your stuff.
Sony is working on a fix for the locked down consoles.

if wii was made by microsoft or sony, it'd hate it more than I do.
The games are the only saving grace.


So I'm still debating on Xbox or PS, pretty much what'll finalize it is whos getting what.

If it's the same people getting the same as last gen, im getting an Xbox.
If my xbox freinds go to PS, I'm getting a PS.

The one I play with the most got a job at dodge, and he thinks he'll be to busy to afford either.
The other doesnt know

The newly announced games have graphics surpassing what was shown by Microsoft. Clearly next gen.
BAHAHAHA
you mean the ONE or 360?
If you mean 360, thats debatable.
If you mean it's better than the ONE, i want what your smoking.
The Xbox One could be worse than the PS4, but it's not the WiiU.
Have you seen Forza? god damn.
There is no way you can possibly think the WiiU is on par with Xbox One

It would be like the PS3, many people invested in it, they bought a bunch of games for it, and basically like the games too much to switch, and then when MS starts DRM and such, they wont be able to sell it (unless its a hackable model) because the games would be useless cuz DRM, no one would want it because of the DRM so you wind up stuck with it, and just stick it out because you dont have the money to purchase a PS4.


Besides, there's plenty of Xbox smashing videos already, they still werent build that well and broke pretty often, or scratched games. :x

I've seen more 360 smashing ones than any other system, because they had so many issues because the design didnt allow adequate airflow and MS didnt bother to add certain parts.

I never seen an SNES smashing video because most people want those so they tend to sell them...

Because I was only able to see dannys quote of abbys post, it was smaller text, and I couldn't tell the R and the N apart, so it made an M, where as when you posted the link, the text was larger and I could see the difference.

In Mandarin, World of Warcraft translates to "The people's fun and noble plan for sterilize youth" so I'd avoid playing it if I were you :P

Alright, I'm not getting back into it then. I miss the friends I made in the game, but it's just not worth it.

Can't, if I get back into it now, it'll only be a free trial which means I can't join back into the guild I was in or even message them, even if the trial temporarily reactivates my account and I already started it by accident. And I don't want to make my folks pay all that money for something I'm not even going to enjoy.

Use the forums and send messages to their forum profiles, then see if you can join the guild chat group or get your friends emails.

Borderlands 2 and Left 4 Dead 2 seem to be the Games he tends to play.
Garrys Mod sometimes.

The Rest are Single Player, like Fallout or Skyrim.

I got bored of BL2, and I can't stand Left 4 Dead 2.
GMOD I play occasionally.

So I started playing this game:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CpKD4VCPtXQ


On my first playthrough I decided to try and land on the comet.  It was fun, I had such a beautiful view.  As I was about to leave I decided I'd place a probe on the front of the thing, to study where it would travel.  So I wandered over to the front and just when I was about to place the probe, I saw a light.  I approached the light as it was coming from a crack on the front of the comet.  I considered going back to get my ship, which was arguably the safest place to study phenomenon such as this in, but the crevice was too small for the ship, only I could fit.  Looking inside I saw a large array of blue glowing crystals, it was a spectacular.  I decided to crawl in to see what it was.  I, carefully avoiding the crystals, moved to the middle of the comet.  I got closer and closer...

...but I bumped into one of the crystals.

Suddenly chaos.  There was a large crashing noise and the glowing crystals disappeared from sight; before I could react something hit me, disorienting and causing me to spin out of control.  After I settled into one spot I turned my light on and could see the core of the comet was filled with ash; I couldn't find the crack I came in through.  Panicking I looked for an exit.  As I was moving around I swear saw something in the darkness I hadn't seen when I first entered, what looked like a big, red root or vine.  This of course made me panic even more.  Finally I could see the light from the sun shining through the dust.  I flew towards it as fast as I could, faster, faster, but everything was happening so fast...

The comet collapsed in on itself before I could escape...



That was probably the most genuinely interesting and exhilarating thing I have ever experienced in an exploration game such as this ^^
It was so amazing I had to describe it in such an overly dramatic way xP

I heard Sins of a Solar Empire is a good one, but does anyone have any other recommendations?

There's a lot of stuff to explain, but I'll try to keep it nice and short. MLG stands for Major League Gaming. MLG Anaheim is an offline tournament which will be held from June 28th to the 30th. There will be three tournaments: League of Legends, Starcraft 2, and Call of Duty: Black Ops 2. Teams and players from around the world will compete for a prize money. Also, the teams/players who win their respective tournaments get to claim the MLG 2013 Spring Champion title, which looks really good on their records.

We barely made it, 80% of my species was killed in the war, only a small fraction of us were still alive to reach omnipotence ;-;

It's cool if you like it, but it's an easier rip off of Dota, which is why Magoo called them casuals, cuz they really are all casual games with far less skil requirements than the other games.

The FPS game should be using Red Orchestra for maximum skill, Star Craft 1 for maximum Pylons, and Dota for maximum teamwork.

It's only balanced because the mods suspend and ban anyone trying new combos for not taking the game super cereal. I've heard some stories of people trying a new combo, and then their team mates reported them for not being a 1337 LoL player and they got suspended and a couple just outright banned.

Could you guys PLEASE open an Animal Crossing thread!?

Yeah, we probably should...

So as part of my process of slowly forgiving EA (And as part of the process of me breaking down), I'm gonna get the Mass Effect Trilogy off of Origin and some of the DLC.  I played ME2 on the Xbox (And had some of the DLC on it, wasn't able to use the weapon pack I got though, because no respawning combat areas >:() and loved it, but I feel bad for never playing the first or third game, so I'm looking forward to it :D

In other news, I bought Dungeon Village on the Playstore for 4.99 and I am loving every second of it. Basically you control a town and you try to make adventurers come to your town to go on quests and fight monsters, and you can gift them stuff, upgrade your city and just awesome stuff. It's like Sim City meets WoW. I am an earned customer~ :3

Nope, but don't worry.  Turns out I can play in OpenGL mode.  Not quite sure how it's different than DirectX mode, but I assume it has something to do with quality/optimization.  Or maybe DirectX mode just has some of the game's more advanced features (Such as 3D an 5760 x 1080 support).

OpenGL is open source drivers, DirectX is proprietary. :v

Okay, It's VERY similar to Lord of the Flies (people get trapped in this school and are forced to kill each other) and a courtroom type game (after each murder, you check out the body and try to figure out who killed them in a very entertaining school-wide trial)
I don't know if that helps at all :x

Doug never actually did anything for me aside from the TV remote thing, but that wasnt actually required cuz it was the stores alarm being set off from the brick that attracted the zambies.

You're still paying 60 bucks for DLC and basically guaranteeing that there will never be a SR5, because whoever bought SR will never make enough money off this to warrant more sequels, also, GTAV.

Keyboards viable until you have to fly something, the controls are horrible.

look for a controller that doesn't have analog triggers like the xbox 360 one has.

Though, you could try using keyboard, see how it works. Xbox Controller is more universal so it's a better investment.

I got The Last of Us yesterday.

...This game is so damn good.

I just got to the Capitol Building. I'm doing pretty good on supplies, except I'm out of shivs. I have 13 9mm rounds, 8 revolver rounds (used so damn many in a fight at the museum) a health kit, a molotov, and enough supplies to make a couple more health kits or molotovs. Saving them because I'm not sure which I'll need and when. So far I'm doing pretty good on just the health kits I find, and I haven't even sued a molotov yet.

I always used all my stuff cuz I suck at games.
But Last of Us was the best game since Bioshock Infinite~

I'm the opposite with supplies. I'm very hesitant to use them. I actually was full on ammo for my 9mm when I fought my first clicker, so I ended up finally using the gun and shot it to death just so I could pick up ammo again xD
I have a habit of punching things to death in open combat instead of using my gun. I sometimes take a lot of damage in this way, but so far I've had the supplies to survive the strategy xD

you know what bothers me?

Why hasn't nintendo even hinted at the idea of another colossuem/XD like game. So many people want another 3D pokemon game, that has a story and overworld.
They would gain so many new customers to the wiiU and make a ton of money.
But you know, it's the logical thing to do, and logic is something that never applies to gaming companies.

AFAIK they streamlined the Triforce pieces hunt (Which I'm guessing they removed fishing for them and paying Tingle to decode maps, and replaced the map chests with the pieces itself, much better.) and replaced the Tingle Tuner with a Miiverse thing. (Meh, I'd prefer they kept it and used the Gamepad or 3DS.)

I just beat the main storyline of this hack the other day; I think it's the first hack I've actually completed. I'm still playing it because there's stuff to do after the story :) Amazing story, too. The premise is genius, and it's put together so well. Of course, as a Pokemon spriter, I have criticism towards the sprites themselves, but I recommend this game!

http://pokemonfusion.wikia.com/wiki/Pok%C3%A9mon_Fusion_Generation_Wiki

Quote
Pokémon Fusion Generation is a fan-made RPG based on the Pokémon series, developed using RPG Maker XP and the Pokémon Essentials starter kit. It features gameplay similar to the official series, but it includes Pokémon Fusions, fakemon created by "fusing" existing Pokémon. The fusion theme extends beyond the Pokémon themselves, as the game combines elements from the different generations of Pokémon. The game is set mostly in Kanto, the setting of the Generation I games. Chronologically, it's set between Generations III and IV, and the player character, among other elements, is taken from Generation III.

I might actually end of collaborating with the guy who made the game, because he's making a sequel to be released next year. I've contacted him on Tumblr and he's actually one of my followers XD I'm in the middle of submitting some sprite sheets right now.

Try out this game! (It's for Windows)

Yes, my old Samsung flip could too.
The problem with Youtube is always Flash. HTML5 isn't supported by too many stuff outside of computers I think.

Maybe they should make photoshop and stuff not $600, then maybe someone would buy it

Also, Netflix is horrible.
Why pay for movies when you can torrent them for free? it's not like the money even goes to the people who made these shows & movies.
It's such a horrible selection outside of the USA imo, and they take forever to get new episodes.

I'd gladly pay $100 - $150 for photoshop, but what they charge right now is insane.

Netflix isn't bad, and I think the creators will at least end up with a cut. And think about shows like Arrested Development, which is now being developed and paid fr by Netflix.

Outside the USA it is horrible, but it's not their fault, it's mostly down to stupid licensing reasons.

But then they'd have to share their moniez with other people, how can the CEO possibly afford a new yacht every year if he shares his money with steam! YOU ANIMAL!

Yup. I got the demo a while back and Miku is enraged cause she doesn't own a PS3.
The game's nice.
It's a rythm game with Vocaloid songs and you unlock costumes, voice packs and Vocaloids to play the different songs.
And they all dance to the music.
It's super cute~

I kinda not like Max Payne 3.
I mean, I think I hate it.
Sure I'm getting better and better at headshots.
But it's just that.
It's aim training.
All you do is aim and shoot.
No tactic at all. No story either. You just shoot.
And there's always people to shoot.
Seriously, Payne is worse than ******. I'm not half through yet and my genocide is even worse.
Every mission puts Max alone against a freaking army.
It is such a pain.
And sometimes you die and die and die until you realize you had to pick this weapon over another or kill this guy over another.
There's also a killcam for every guy you take out.
My rant could go on but fuck it.

i got an idea
pay attention to the game
It has a story, and a pretty good one.
Of course it has no tactic, it's a freaking action game. It's like saying Saints Row, COD, GTA, RDR, Gears, Halo, etc. have "no tactic"
And of course theres a freaking army of people to shoot, it's a ****ing action game!
your acting like your playing an Action Game expecting it to be a freaking Point and Click game.
I'll agree the game is difficult, but I got over it and beat it. Lower the difficulty for gods sake, and quit complaining.

It's a game thats been mainly popular because of it's story and setting. Saying that theres no story is just a stupid way to say "I have not been paying attention".
Essentially what this is, your bad at the game, and blaming the game itself for it.

Story so far: Everyone dies, Max gets drunk. Start over from everyone dies and continue.
Maybe there's more to it but for now that's all there is.

I'm already at the lowest difficulty setting... q_q

Wherever you go there's always a huge army out to kill you.
It makes no sense. No sense at all.
They keep throwing waves after waves of angry folks.
And there's always someone badder meaner.
And everyone dies.

It's freaking depressing.

Not yet.
I don't think so.
There are terrorists attacking. At clubs, twice.
Paramilitary group that seem to wanna mess with everyone.
They killed Max' boss. Supposedly they wanna kill Max.
The terrorists killed the girl in the favela.
That's about where I'm at.
I was in the cemetary flashback but the game crashed.
I had no weapons and no access to menus.
So I went and took a snipe to the head and after that, no more display, all black. Passos was still talking though.
Odd.

the back parts are the main story to explain why he was in this rut and how he got out of it, only to go back into it.

Yeah...
I want a Zelda CG movie real bad but not something like that.
They should just go to Bandai for this too.
I mean, they did FANTASTIC .hack// CG movies.
And they also did a great Digimon CG movie.
And since they're working on Smash, then what's holding Nintendo back?

They betrayed everyone and turned back on their oh so promising view!
Which means they even betrayed themselves!
Companies work on trust and MS' trust has reached bottom zero. They're in the pits!

Forget about EA being the worst company!
MS is WAY over them! XD

EA isn't being completely stupid anymore. They're considering an offline mode for SimCity 2013 and have suddenly announced new game sequels that people have been wanting for years.

Xbox One changes everything or Xbox One changes every week? You gotta wonder.
Of course he has trouble explaining how it changes gaming.
He himself doesn't even know anymore what's in or out of Xbox One. XD

Gotta love this quote. It is the embodiment of truth.
Quote from: DVONvX
I'm all for the xbox having all these extra features. However, they do not "change everything." Improved hardware and better exclusives changes things-which I believe the ps4 has. I have, netflix, hulu, skype, twitter, youtube, and facebook all on my tablet. There is nothing new here on the xbox one except stuff to take up half my tv screen away from my game.

Quote from: berzerk0912
"The Xbox One "changes everything," according to Microsoft." Yep, it made me change my mind on buying it.

Quote from: Coco_pierrot
They have until November to change everything about Xbox One ... maybe it won't even have that name in november !

https://www.humblebundle.com/?originbundle

Battlefield 3, Dead Space, Burnout Paradise, Mirror's Edge, Crysis 2, Dead Space 3, Medal Of Honor, The Sims 3 + 2 Expansions. ALL FOR A MINIMUM OF 4.53!
All money earned from this goes to the Humble Team's Charity, and EA donates all the money it makes to another charity!
Totally worth it, best deal ever. I'm totally getting this.

You can choose the charity if you don't trust EA.
Best humble bundle yet, so many triple A titles.

Some of them are on steam, incase you don't want to get Origin. I'd honestly suffer through origin for this.

I already have all the expansions in it, so it's of no use to me.
(It does require Origin though, if you're willing to make that sacrifice)

Why are you trying to convince us.
Most of us are already set on PS4/PC/WiiU and Ian is getting it for reasons unrelated to superiority.

Hes getting it because his friends are, which is agreeable. I'd leave PC gaming if Daniel wasn't around.
I have a PS3 and barely use it because nobody plays anything other than COD.

Poor guy just wanted to say what he wants and you guys pester him. That's probably why he noticeably stopped replying here.

It's actually about the people who created the Halo rings.
The Forerunners, the things the chief faces aren't 'aliens that look like other aliens'
because they don't look like other aliens, and they aren't aliens, there like these living defence system things. robots.

(http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120624145146/halo/images/thumb/2/28/Promethian_Knights.png/250px-Promethian_Knights.png) vs (http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110425144024/halo/images/thumb/e/ee/HReach_-_Sangheili_Zealot.png/250px-HReach_-_Sangheili_Zealot.png)

I can see similarities, but there aren't much outside of their stance.
Also unlike the Elites, gameplay wise the Promethians are more like mini-bosses.
The main grunts in the Promethians look like dogs, not like anything else in Halo.
There is some covenant though.

Halo 4's gameplay was the same old, same old. The multiplayer sucks now, imo, but the story was fantastic. Campaign in general, I liked the level design and stuff. It was fun.

So, I've been reinstalling The Sims 3 after I got my new hard drive.  Things are going fine, downloaded and installed the first half of my expansions along with the base game, then I get to pets (one of the larger expansions).  Spend a few hours downloading it, then it gets to around 86% with about 3 GB downloaded.  I go afk and come back a few minutes later, and it's at 72% and at around 2.3 GB.  I think "that's odd, Origin must have been misreading the data storage or some bullcrap like that.  I go afk again, come back and it's at 43% at like 1 GB!  Now, an hour and a half later, it's worked it way back up to 70% (after skipping bag about 10% a couple times), and will no doubt skip back again.

THIS IS EATING UP MY BANDWIDTH!

Still looks good~

They showed the new UI for the PS4.

GT6 is getting exclusive car prototypes.
They will be exclusive to GT6. Some of them will be built too.
That's quite cool.

LittleBigPlanet.hub will be free to play and will be a massive expansion to the LBP series.
Updated regularly with new content.

Borderlands 2 is coming to PSVita.

Everybody's Gone to the Rapture and Rime look really good~

They showed TONS of COOL looking Indie games.

Driveclub and Resogun will both be free for PS+ members at launch.

The Playroom will be pre-installed to all PS4 systems.
Looks like a bunch of mini-games à la WarioWare/Raving Rabbids.

There will be additional exclusive content on the PS4 for both AC:IV and Watch_Dogs.

They're working on a Watch_Dogs feature film.

Minecraft is coming to PS.

The launch date is November 15th for NA.
And I think it was November 27th for UK.

It's still 199 everywhere.



And they made fun of Microsoft at the very end.
Cause unless some other company who change their minds on everything, they're constant with their ideas. XD

You'll be able to purchase the PS4 version at a much lower price for a limited time if you already own the PS3 version.

Well house building is mostly the same, they just made wall dragging more responsive and added a cut/paste option (which I really like).

Though I do absolutely love the face editing in TS4.  TS3 had the sliders for facial detail, but tbh they were far too menacing for most players xP

I've seen LPs of it, and my friend likes it, and doesnt care for the crafting with a controller, and I wouldnt either after using a touch screen. It's much quicker this way to find and craft junk, theres no dragging, just touching and sliding the list up or down to select the object you want to craft.

Combat def needs physical controls though. D;

I agree with you.

So, after a week of downloading and messing with spotty Origin servers, I've finally reinstalled The Sims 3.

And so, the first thing I did (After downloading the mods required to then make my obligatory anthro character...) was make Walt and Jesse from Breaking Bad.  To be honest, I think I did pretty good:

Xbox Live is cheaper!

People who do that kind of thing are predisposed to doing it anyway.  Correlation is not causation and thus video games are not to blame for shootings.  A killer might want to play a violent game but that doesn't mean a person playing a violent game wants to be a killer.  Basically the archaic people have things the wrong way around.  Oh that reminds me; Cracked did a video about the whole video games being blamed thing recently so people should watch that.

Also that was an 8 year old who presumably had some kind of disconnect from reality which caused them to pick up a firearm that was left irresponsibly.  If people want guns, at least put them in a safe or something away from children.  Is that so much to ask or are the rednecks gonna protect the 2nd amendment rights of preteens too?

Video games are the latest in a series of things that the old people want to fight against.  It's been comics, movies, even books in the past few centuries because people generally want something to hate.  It's why progress is slow but eventually video games will be accepted and not blamed by sensationalist news people and instead they'll likely move on to something else that of course a few decades later people will realise is innocent.  I feel like the only way to stop stupidity is the for the previous generation to die off.  But then the whole thing just starts up again.  The lesson to be learned is to be open minded.  And if that doesn't work, play good games like Legend of Zelda The Wind Waker (coming to HD guys!).

Also everyone at Fox News needs to be hit with a shovel repeatedly.  Old white doubletalk guys in suits are not the most objective people here.

That said, kids that age probably shouldn't play GTA anyway though.  It does have some things they might be a bit too young for anyway.  But I'd say the same for something like 50 shades of derp, it's got stuff not meant for the young folk.

Regular safe sounds good.  It needs to be good enough to keep out children at least.  But real men use bow and arrows instead of guns. ;D

the last thing is under debate.
Most people I know started playing GTA when they where 8 or younger.

For my kids, I'd say 12-13 would be suitable enough for a game like GTA, once they can effictivly determine virtual reality from real reality.

People think that me playing games like GTA would turn me crazy.
but no.
I know ones a video game, and one is reality.
I have a brain. I have common sence.

I hate how everything is so one sided in these kinda cases.

It's always Old 50 year old white guy vs old 50 year old white lady.
Who have the same goddamn opinions.
And just agree on everything.
Then they bring in some guy from the NRA or something, so he can further derail the topic away from guns.
Why don't they bring in a video game professional if they bring a gun professional? Oh right, they might prove the media wrong, don't want that happening.

Not saying guns should be banned, but I'm pretty sure it's a law to have a loaded firearm kept away from reach of a child.

And on the topic of GTA being a Murder Training Simulator.
Niko doesn't ever teach you how to use the gun. He doesn't go "here player, you hold the gun like so, unlock the safety like so, and pull the trigger like that".
He just randomly pulls the gun out of his ass and pull the trigger.
The same thing a water gun can do
For all we know, the kid could have gotten the knowledge to use a gun from his father.
Or whoever owns the gun.
or movies.
or tv shows.
A gun is so simple to use if safety is off, you just pull a trigger. Saying the game taught him isn't a valid arguement. I bet you a 6 year old could use a firearm without anybody teaching them, after the safety is off.

things like this make me wanna yell into a pillow for an hour because i know i'm powerless to stop it.
if GTA gets banned because of this, im gonna be so dissapointed. Probably won't though, since I don't live in the USA.

yeah 12-13 is probs fine providing as you said they know reality.  But kids these days are definitely exposed to more risque stuff so gta probably isn't that much considering.  But under 10 would be a no for the risque stuff, ratings do still have some purpose after all.

probably the parents, leaving weapons around with the safety off.  But the kid probably had some kind of problem already... which should have been picked up though so umm yea...

I wonder what will happen when the kid grows up and they come to terms with what they did.

It cannot lose against Call of Duty.

I think I'm going to purchase a 2DS

I don't care about the 3D
It's probably never going to leave my room. So I don't care about portability.
And it's cheaper than a 3DS. All I want is to play Pokemon X & Y, and it's perfect for that.

Yeah, they made it for you. XD
But really, I think they're targeting children.
Since children aren't even supposed to play 3D and young children won't take it in their pockets either. (they're too small)
Yet the parents were still forced big money for crap that wouldn't be used.

The real bad thing about the 2DS is how much time Nintendo took to finally realize there should be that kind of alternative to the 3DS.

I just really hope it's not a preview for their next portable. XD
I want them to keep the dual screens and their amazing portability.

Also,
Quote
Nintendo gave a unique explanation of the device’s design:
“The appearance of separate screens is merely simulated by the way the case masks out the extraneous portions.
This means the entire screen is by necessity a touchscreen, with the upper screen protected by a layer of plastic that sits above it.
This has naturally prompted many to ask just why they did not just make it into a full tablet anyway, as its non-folding design so obviously invites.
Nintendo’s own official model comparison also reveals the unflattering truth that the console manages to be heavier than the 3DS despite having shed functionality ranging from power saving to stereo speakers:

What a bull of crap Nintendo. Thank you anyways.
Guess I'll keep my Zelda Special Edition 3DS. :P

I'm thinking of canceling my $150 GTA V preorder,
and instead purchasing the Limited Edition /w The Limited Edition Strategy Guide.

The Guide is Hardcover, comes with a exclusive lithograph and some artwork, for only 10$ more...

This will bring my total to around $114.
I save 40$ but miss out on a hat, a deposit bag, a key, Niko, Claude & Misty as parents and an In-game Garage with 2 cars in single player and 1 car in multiplayer...

The character creation system for GTA Online uses 'parents' to generate the face, animation set and voice for your character.

If you preorder GTA V's Collector Edition, Niko, Claude (GTA 3 Protag), and Misty (Prostitute from GTA 3,main character) are added as options for your character's parents.

very silly idea because many cosplayer girls are saying they wish characters look less like that so that they don't get treated bad by dudes at conventions so having them less like that would actually encourage the cosplaying more

its my second favoruite saints row. Sr2 being my fav. They got the comedy right and superpowers are cool.
I juat feel too OP and steelport is the worst open world city ever.
But yea good writing and gameplay is decent, but easy.

I do like the different direction though. You cant really compare saints row to GTA because od the completely different directions. You can be a fan of both now, really.

I'll even say Battlefield 4 and COD: Ghosts (as shitty as it will be) look the best and most ambitous.

Yeah, the controls for superpowers are great.
At some points it feels like a superhero game or a matrix game.
And everyone knows Matrix games suck and most superhero games suck too while SR4 doesn't~
But yeah, you get OP fast.

And if you do the Tank Mayhem subquest early, you can spawn the tank anytime for danger zones and everything. XD

And the direction is good indeed. I hope they won't go back to imitating GTA.
Because SR4 is great because it's more unique.

Do you have counter strike source? Or half life episode 2?

Most mods don't work unless you have those 2, or atleast CS:S because they updated the engine, and Garry's Mod uses those as a platform.

Actually, GMod was using the Episode Two engine last I checked (which is much  newer than the CS:S engine).  But that was a few years ago, so they might have switched to the Portal 2 Engine (but I doubt they have, because if so the game wouldn't break when launching L4D(2) and Portal 2 maps xD)

And also, they updated it to use placeholders for missing content.  Like, they have low poly CS:S, Episode One/Two, and (I believe) TF2 models and texture if you're missing the game, but I can't vouch on how much that fixes.

I also think the Workshop filters out addons that require games you don't have by default, but if you own the games and don't have them installed, I can see that causing problems.

You used to be able to get mods from multiple sources (Most of them were on the mild cesspool that was garrysmod.org), but ever since the newer update they did about a year ago it uses the Steam Workshop.

So far, I don't believe Garry's Mod uses anything from Left 4 Dead 1 or 2, it just gives you the option to load the maps (but they crash the game if you try launching them).

And yes, you need them installed, since gmod loads the resources from those games.

So far, I don't believe Garry's Mod uses anything from Left 4 Dead 1 or 2, it just gives you the option to load the maps (but they crash the game if you try launching them).

And yes, you need them installed, since gmod loads the resources from those games.

Good.
The question is:
If I host the game and load content from CSS, my bro who doesn't have CSS will just see errors or is the host sending the info to the clients?

Your bro will just see errors.

Purple/Black checkered textures, and big 3D errors are commonplace.

Well, as I said, they did an update so the player models have low quality placeholders (Since they were the most used  resources from CS:S, sometimes even the only ones on some servers).

But yeah, textures and props will probably be errors.

Sony's releasing a new PS Vita.
Slimmer, cheaper and in a great array of colors.
For only 150$.
However, they got rid of the gorgeous OLED screen for a cheaper LCD one.

Sony also announced the PS Vita TV.
The PS Vita TV is about the size of a portable hard drive, you can hold it in the palm of your hand.
You connect it to your TV and have access to Music Unlimited and Video Unlimited.
You can play your Vita and PSP games on it on the big screen.
It will also be able to stream PS4 games as the PS Vita will do.
For only 150$.
It comes with a Dualshock 3 and a memory card. (No info on the size of the memory card)

Both of these are amazing.
I may get a Vita TV if the memory's good and play these amazing handheld games on the big screen~

I might get one of those.  But it really depends on the usefulness of them when the choice comes around.

If I had a PS3 and/or PS4, I could see the Vita TV being useful for when traveling (which is not an uncommon event in my family), but then again I could do that with the regular Vita anywhere (but I'd have to either pay for 4G or be at a fast enough wifi hotspot, if I'm not mistaken).

Come to think of it, I might just get a regular PS Vita when I have the money.

Probably alongside.
Since there are no plans for a 3G version of the newer one they'll want to keep selling the old one.
And many would rather pay more for the OLED screen.
My guess is that they'll do like Nintendo except they released big and then slimmer instead of small and then bigger.

I'm not a vita fan but I have to say, having it connect to the TV to do handheld stuff on the big screen is a good idea.  I wish the DS would do the same cos I loved the Gamecube's Gameboy player.

There are games he has that I'd like to try and so do I.



I got my TES Anthology.
It has ALL the expansions.
The maps are great.

And I have a beta key for TES Online!

Well worth the 100$ imo.

The same reason why when XONE tried to introduce DRM, and no reselling of games, everyone hated it.

They just love to eat Steams shit.

I on the other hand, hate both and which they would just go away so PS4 can be the definitive ruler of the gaming world.

I never saw anyone complain about Xbox One's family sharing, they were complaining about the DRM and not being able to trade physical copies of games.

And tbh, the response to the Steam Family Sharing has been mixed (which confuses me).  I've seen noting but people saying that it's bad because you have to take turns playing (only one person can play games owned by a certain account at a time).  Meanwhile I'm thinking "IT'S BECAUSE IF THAT WASN'T THE CASE, PEOPLE WOULD ESSENTIALLY BE ABLE TO LET 5 OF THEIR FRIENDS GET FREE COPIES OF THEIR GAMES."

Basically, it's like if your brother borrows your game, and then you get home from school, wanting to play it. With a solid disk, you could beat your brother and take it back, with digital copies, you cant do that anymore and will be at their mercy.

Unless you bought the game.  Then you have top priority.
The user who owns the games can play whenever he wants, but once they start playing anyone who's playing a game from their library has a set amount of time to stop.

It would lag your game though cuz the game would send out a request, the cloud would compute it, and then cloud would answer said request, so there would be noticable lag.

But since Don did everything wrong with it, most people don't even know stuff was fixed and are all crowding to PS4.

My current situation:

There are no repair stations nearby, and neither of us can destroy eachother in our current state (unless one of us shuts off their shields or jumps away).

So yeah, the AI never does that sooo....


Edit: Trying again, this time using boarding parties and only energy weapons (except for Health Bombs).
This is the only circumstance in which I think the ancient Rockman's "Lockdown" would be useful, because the crew are like borg or something.  They know exactly when they're hurt enough to get to medbay and send replacements at that exact moment, making it near impossible to kill any of them (except for the weapon engineers) because none of my weapons can get past their shields!  If I could just trap one of them in a room for 1 more second, I could win this battle D:

yea but its like
not pc compatible at all probably
same with PS3 controller
you had to use ****ty 3rd part software to get the PS3 controller to work on PC, with the xbox 360 controller you just plug it in and it works. No drivers, no nothing.

ugh I'm so torn between what to buy, I feel like not getting anything.
PS4 has freinds but like I couldn't give less a **** about the exclusives.

hmmm what about maybe Arkham Origins Blackgate coming out soon, then the Smash Bros of course, Scribblenauts Unmasked :P , etc
Id rather get Batman and Scribblenauts on PC.
Games on consoles that are on handhelds usually suck on handhelds.
Like every psp game.

Arkham Origins Blackgate is handheld only.  Two games are being released, Arkham Origins (console) and Arkham Origins Blackgate which is the second part.

They do that all the time.
> see assassins creed.
But in the end its just an inferior game with a new/different story so people buy it.

Anyways, I am going to buy a 3ds tomarrow.
Probably with Animal Crossing or Mario Kart, or some exclusive.

The news has hit a new low.

Minecraft was blamed for a kid bringing guns to school, because the kid said "They use hammers to dig and knives and guns to protect themselves from zombies"

They do. Just ignore the bad ports and pick only original games.
They are many.
It's just too bad you won't ever play JRPG's cause the best are on handhelds.
So you miss out on that.
But there's still plenty.

I'll admit I only have JRPGs for my DS/3DS but that's another story.

Get Zelda OoT 3D. It's glorious.
And there's Zelda A Link Between Worlds coming soon that looks amazing.
You could get either Lego Batman DC Super Heroes or Lego Marvel Super Heroes.
There's also a ton of Indie on the Nintendo eShop and tons of old classic titles.

You lose nothing on Nintendo handhelds.

omg that is the stupidest thing I've ever heard
minecraft doesn't have guns, what kind of moron believes that
there aren't hammers either xD
the kid is clearly just another stupid kid who gets hold of their parents weapon that hasn't been stored properly.  But noooo they can't possibly bring up the fact that it's fault of that, no they have to find some stupid way to lie and blame a computer game that is pretty much the virtual equivalent to freakin lego.  Parents can be so irresponsible but have to give the blame to something else even if what they say sounds like utter crap.

edit:
*reads some comments, here is a good one*
Quote
This sounds like evidence that the father has no idea what his son is playing. While it's not proof, it's evidence of a disconnected parent who doesn't seem to care what his kid is doing. This is further evidenced by the fact that the kid was able to locate a firearm and ammunition and bring them to school.

The father wanted to shift blame away from himself. He knows the kid plays Minecraft, but doesn't know enough to even really know what Minecraft is about. Blaming videogames seems to be a popular approach, so he tried it out.

The final verdict? This is a man who likely has no business being a parent. An investigation should be launched regarding the child's home life.

I might get a Link Between Worlds. Maybe Animal Crossing, and maybe a mario game.
Not gonna get classic games, tbh, because the 3DS probably wont ever leave my house, and I can just play those on my pc using an emulator.

Fair enough.

New Super Mario Bros 2 looks good and Super Mario 3D Land is supposedly really great.
And if you have someone to play with, maybe Mario Kart 7.

I'm watching the newest south park episode "Informative Murder Porn"

It's a great commentery on Parents vs Violent video games.
It's pretty much an exaggerated role reversal parodying the whole anti-violent video games.

I thought it was more about violent TV with a video game thrown in just to add some flavor as well as add to the tendency of parents to reference older things kids would have never heard for their passwords

It was kinda a mix of those yeah, but i found it more of a role reversal for violent media vs parents.

"I wish Jaden Smith was my son! He let's his parents watch what they want!"

The cable company who kept rubbing themselves saying there are no other cable companies and doing all they could to be horrible to their customers. Time Warner Cable, Comcast, and Charter are all like that and do just that to their customer base, because they have monopolies in a LOT of areas so people are forced to use them or pay outrageous money for a satellite provider which goes out whenever theres a storm or something.

Everyone hates it when that happens. Even worse is when they come by finally, and then it takes them three hours to set things up, and then they steal your signed baseball.

Oh god, I had my DS with my almost completed pokemon pearl in it stolen, and I saved so much xmas money and stuff to buy it all. Then my mom wouldnt beleive me until 3 months afterwards of me hounding her to find it or call the cops, so she looks, realizes I was right, and then calls the cops but they cant do anything about cuz it was so long after it happened.


I had to buy it myself again the next year cuz she said it was my fault even though it was entirely hers.
