I just bought it because of this thread.. And I'm crap at it :p. Too bad there's no online co-op.

Hmm, let me help you out with that then. In short; I can recommend The lobster, Le tout nouveau testement, Maryland, Bridge of spies, Virgin mountain, A perfect day, and The good dinosaur, though I'd also give The gift a look. The lobster is perhaps my favourite of this bunch. Since last post: Crimson peak ♥♥♥♥♥ Was expecting something fun from Guillermo del Toro, with that cast, but it disappointed. I wanted more horror, but it's not a horror. Could have been a great detective story as well, but it's not that either.. I'm not sure what it is (apart from mostly boring), but it lacked something. Life ♥♥♥♥♥ Was ok. Liked the cast (Dane DeHaan and Robert Pattinson). It's about a reporter who captures James Dean short rise to fame. Youth ♥♥♥♥♥ Latest film from the director of La grande belleza. Not as good though, but was ok. It has more comedic elements in it, but it follows more characters, and as a result, don't get to know them as well as we do Jep Gambardella from La grance belleza. The lobster ♥♥♥♥♥ This was great. Just the kind of weirdness I like.. Probably need to go see this a 2nd time, and may bump this up to 5 stars. In this world, people aren't allowed to be single, and get turned into animals. A funny film with a very cynical view on love and relationships, but can be tense at times.. That ending. Mia madre ♥♥♥♥♥ An Italian drama that didn't resonate with me. 45 years ♥♥♥♥♥ A British drama that didn't resonate with me.. Is the man who is tall happy? ♥♥♥♥♥ A documentary from Michel Gondry who interviews a linguistic expert. It's interesting, but I'd have liked to go deeper into the subject matter. Son of Saul ♥♥♥♥♥ Absolute shit. Probably one of my most controversial opinions, because this film seems to be universally loved. Since it's controlversial, I'll elaborate, even though I don't want to give this shit film any more thought. We quite literally follow a guy in Auschwitz. The film uses a 4:3 ratio. I don't mind in itself, the ratio can be used to great effect, and is great for dialogue heavy films while capturing facial expressions. Problem: the film has barely any dialogue, and the guy we follow pretty much has one facial expression. The film has actually quite a bit of action, but you barely get to see any of it, because you see either his dumb face, or the back of his head. The film was extremy tiring for me. The film uses a lot of long shots, but they tiring because 1: again, you barely get to see any of the action around him, and 2: the guy is a fucking idiot. We follow him wandering from one location to another, on his stupid and futile mission, doing extremely dumb things, which kept me wondering why he's not shot within the first 10 minutes of the film.

Bought some stuff from the Square Enix shop. - Life is strange LE. - Deus Ex: mankind divided. - 2015 Holiday surprise box. Loved Life is strange so much, I'll happily buy an extra physical copy. I actually already pre-ordered Deus Ex, but then cancelled it to pre-order the LE, which wasn't available at their shop initially. But after their pre-order bonus debacle, and seeing what the LE actually contains, I re-pre-ordered (..) the regular edition again, I only want the artbook, but I'm not paying 120 euros for it. As for the surprise box, I was happy with the previous boxes, so I'm looking forward to the next. I'm hoping for / expecting Sleeping dogs, everything else is a bonus. This time they didn't leave a hint in the form of a minimum system requirements, so there are no educated guesses on the internet. Apart from Sleeping dogs, I expect Lara Croft and the temple of Osiris.. Maybe they finally add a Final Fantasy to the box as well. I also ordered that X-Box one elite controller.

Definitely interested. I never finished System Shock 2 though, I should reinstall it.

And Jade Empire is free on origin. I dismissed it initially because the name didn't really ring a bell, but then I saw it was a Bioware RPG. Bought Axiom Verge in the sale (you still have 10 minutes :p). Bought a physical copy of The Evil within for 10 euros. I'll buy the DLC in the Steam winter sale (Steam comments seem to be positive). It's now installing 40GB from 4 discs, geez. I can't remember the previous time when I bought a physical copy of a game in a physical store though. And I'm very tempted to get myself an X-Box one elite controller. I've wanted a controller for my PC for quite some time, for the few 2D games or 3rd person 3D games I have. Keyboard and mouse suffices for a lot of things, Tomb Raider for example played perfectly, but I don't see myself playing Yooka Laylee for example, when it comes out, and I obviously need it for Axiom Verge mentioned above. The other option is a Wii classic controller pro adapter, but the options aren't mutually exclusive, so I may get both.

I'm going in a minute, otherwise I'd photoshop that (it doesn't really work in plain text )

It's a bit early, as currently, there's barely any info. Coming in 2016. Full title TBA, trailer coming this week I believe.

3 episode mini series coming in February.

Yeah, it was a great surprise she came with a flying pony pegasus! I suspect the wings are detacheble, so you may be able to use it with other Nendoroids. Eventhough it's white, it may be fun with Link. Or Marth of course. Or Darth Vader.

Being shipped: Just pre-ordered: Getting a 3rd release: Respectively getting a 3rd release, a 2nd release, and just announced:

Apparently, there are some indications that it is a dream sequence, but I'm no expert.

Normally I don't watch trailers for films I'm guaranteed to go see, but I couldn't resist. And damn.

Well, that ddn't end well.. That's just a description of your play. I got the same, but there are other descriptions.
-
That would be good timing, as the final episode is coming in 2 days.
-
There's still plenty stuff to cover for a season 3. Although I read somewhere that the French viewing ratings weren't as great as the first season, so there may not be a season 3.

Pokemon Red, Blue & Yellow (3DS Virtual Console)

So, what about green? -
I'm not a fan myself, but it's a good effort, and I'm sure some of you will love this:

Which doesn't mean it won't / can't use the continuity of the films, but I really hope they will continue where Voyager left off. And I hope it will come to Netflix here, as we obviously don't have that CBS streaming service. That said, the fan-made series Renegades has a new Kickstarter up for episodes 2 and 3, and I'll probably pledge something. It would be so cool if CBS acknowledges Rernegades in the new series..

I thought that was pretty clear though. But if it wasn't, it will be soon enough. I'll come back in 5 weeks when you've seen everything.
