I don't know what's even still coming out this year. Dark Souls 3 or Final Fantasy XV though are what I know I'm looking forward to.

Anyone that wants clear and concise delivery of Dark Souls and Bloodborne lore (which it can be a little difficult to delve into all of the lore) should check out VaatiVidya's videos. He's made a lot of videos just talking about the stories and lore of different characters in the games and the bosses. He was apparently also approached by From Software for Darks Souls 3 to give input on the lore. Even if you've played the games his videos are interesting to watch.

Demo was too short. Loved it though. I never completed the original demo, but enjoyed that as well. I do think I prefer this more DMCesque gameplay where switching weapons on the fly is possible as opposed to the previous method of putting weapons in an attack order. I will say this demo is a HORRIBLE representation of how battles should work. I got stomped the first time on the boss because other than O to attack I stumbled through relearning bits that I learned in the original demo. Respawned the Iron Giant and slaughtered him.

I skimmed the Jim Sterling review and this is what he echoes. It is a stock standard mundane shooter, but in his opinion Remedy made it fun and interesting with the time manipulation mechanics. He also says that it strikes a good balance of after a battle there is a cool down period, provides a nice juxtaposition from the action.

Hey man, video games is serious stuff. I still can't play Mario because it doesn't make sense that he gets big when he eats a mushroom! But really @killthenet, the rule of thumb in Final Fantasy is rule of cool. If it seems fun or cool or looks good, they'll do it. I think as early as FF6 guys with swords were killing guys in mech armor. Shit Sabin suplexes a train. Rule of cool has gotten a bit looser with some releases and can be just silly.

Jim Sterling gave it an 8.5 as well. So it seems like it's generally positive. I haven't seen any media for it personally, it seems like it might be good, but hell I haven't even finished Alan Wake yet so I'll give this a pass for now. Plus between 72-80 hour work weeks and Dark Souls 3, no time for an Xbone game.

Enforced? Wouldn't the term just be forced? I pretty well agree, taking away the illusion of choice from the gamer and pushing a singular mechanic without adequate explanation is basically pure bullshit. Like games throwing in escort missions in which the enemies swarm and murder them ignoring you. Sometimes it's done well. Wind Waker and losing your sword felt like a valid reason for link to need to sneak. The Last of Us was built as an escort game and made the escorted a non issue. TLOU also allowed for the more freeform style of play. It's hard but possible to stealth a decent amount of the encounters. Similarly Dishonoured.

Still hoping for Bloodborne PC.

I need a hug.

Iunno. A lot of people that actually game still enjoy the console and real controller experience and not just the tablet experience. Of course, if the future of gaming really is just bejeweled and angry bird clones and RPGs with dodgy controls, then yeah a tablet is great for controls. I assume unit 2 meant two controllers and the other is unit 1.

Could be but I really don't think so. Looking back at the original "leak" these nubs looks slightly farther inset than before. Not that that means anything.

Hmm second picture the angle and the lighting shows square edges that appear as if that's where the screen ends. And the joynubstick is like 90% into the screen. Looks like a good fake.

Hmmm. 28 Days Later. I can truly watch it over and over. Honorable mentions to; Trainspotting Reservoir Dogs Pulp Fiction Inglorious Basterds Kill Bill Children of Men Smokin Aces No Country for Old Men The 5th Element Spirited Away My Neighbor Totoro Princess Mononoke Akira Sideways Super Troopers The Rescuers Down Under Who Framed Roger Rabbit Brick Poolboy 2 Drowning out the Fury. Made in a B movie style but it's absolutely hilarious. Perks of being a Wallflower. It sure was a movie. I'll never watch it again, fucked me up enough already watching once.

Hell, the old brick Gameboy wasn't exactly sleek. Of course it did fit with everything else of the time. Virtual boy certainly wasn't pretty to look at.

Looks like? It is the Vita, just with different button layouts. I just compared to mine and the shape is dead on.

Test drove a car, probably gonna buy it since it's nice and has good mileage (and I'm driving 2 hours a day commute for the next two months). Also went to a 4th grade bingo fundraiser which was a good time. Annnnnnnnd my mom was dared by people we didn't know to stand up and yell "Shake your balls" at the guy reading off the bingo numbers....Well my mom of course did. (Of note, she also once pinched Josh Gates butt soooo...) It was a fun day. Nice to have it off, 40 hours of sitting for training to work at the Nuclear Plant drained me. Training is harder work than work. It was a decent day. And I'd like to thank @ReZourceman for making this thread. I don't know why, but it just felt like a really nice and appropriate time for this thread to have popped up.

2DS? I sort of agree though. Not entirely on the durability front but on the fact that the Clamshell design is very good IMO.

Looks awful. God I hope they don't think it's acceptable for a tiny ass screen with a couple real buttons with screen around them.

8 still because shortly after starting it my PS4 decided I was only allowed to have 56k speeds over wireless and I've yet to maneuver my router to a closer area. Oddly updates download fine seemingly and it would connect to the game servers. I switched to Bloodborne instead (and managed to post online in that as well.) I'm also going to be going to overtime and night shift shortly so I'm not seeing gaining too much more, which really sucks since the group I want to play with will be hella over leveled compared to me.

<_< >_> <_< I'm more excited about PlayStation Vue than PSVR. Too rich for my blood (no camera) and VR is really cool to me tech wise, but for gaming I'm not sure I could do it.

What do you have because I know the GTX 680 can run the game acceptably at 1080p

Are you looking to replace the internal one or just set down a large external to use?

Indeed it is, but it's not displaying properly. Certain areas (like a black screen) look like the right side. And I highly doubt that is something I somehow glossed over and missed when playing before.

If it has them I can't find them. At least they aren't inside Wii mode as that has no settings. Part of it I'm sure is just nostalgia eyes (of course even in 2011 I was playing HD games) but the dithering is new I'm sure. I can see it on text boxes even.
