Happenstance

Melee, Double Dash and I don't know the Mario Party games well enough to say, one of the N64 ones I guess.

I set my Vive back up this morning, managed to find some better spots for the lighthouses and actually used the sync cable between them this time for better tracking and it all seems to be working great. Raw Data is free this weekend on Steam so I'm looking forward to giving that a try.

I just think he comes off as pathetic. Im sure that some sites do score lower/higher but not any that actually matter and I doubt he was talking about the smaller sites.

Shame you then get Phil Spencer coming out with stuff like this: http://www.mcvuk.com/news/read/spencer-believes-some-reviewers-give-low-scores-for-clicks/0173544

The NX is a home console but when you take it out you wear it like an Iron Man suit. This includes the blood poisoning from Iron Man 2.

But I heard that we might not be getting some news this week...

Yeah its been discounted on Amazon and then I had an Amazon voucher from Topcashback so I got some more money off. Really looking forward to watching them all again!

Yeah I need to try the demo when it comes out. I'm still not entirely sure what the game is!

Couldn't help myself

I think as usual we just have to remember that power doesnt just relate to graphics. Devs need it for a lot more than that. AI for example is a big one.

I think I'm gonna spend some time this week trying to figure out better locations for my Vive lighthouses. They lose tracking a bit too easily at the moment.

Do we know what kind of boat? I'm hoping for some kind of galleon.

I dont think the design helped either. Consumers are used to sleek and light tablets. The Wii U gamepad really did look like it was from Fisher Price and at least for me, was uncomfortable to use for longish gaming sessions.

Breakfast Club meets Chronicle

Looks like its been removed Here we go

I know this may come as a shock...but I bought some more One Piece dvds :p

For me, Let's Plays tend to be less about the games being played and more about the people talking over them. I still watch Minecraft videos because I like the Youtubers playing it. As I said in the NX thread, I watched about 100 hours of Giant Bomb playing Persona 4 and still ended up completing more than one version of that game myself. Did the same with their Deadly Premonition and Chrono Trigger Endurance Runs. If anything Let's Plays have pushed me towards buying games rather than made me think I'd seen it all and didn't need to bother. I can understand the problem developers have. Not everyone is like me and still wants to buy games even if they have watched it played through already. I tend to have the opinion though that once someone has bought their game, they can do whatever they want with it and that includes putting it on Youtube for all to see.

My copy of Gears 4 just arrived. First one I'll be playing properly (only made it about an hour into Gears 1). Unfortunately the Xbox store is struggling to redeem my codes for the previous games. Only 2 and Judgement have worked so far.

Yeah speaking of speed runs that's why I like the Games Done Quick live streams so much. Sure the skills being shown are impressive but they now usually make sure they have someone else on the couch next to them commentating to explain just what is going on.

Anyone actually getting this then? Seems to have some pretty positive buzz around it.

I really wish those had come out on PS4 as well. It's too much hassle for me to dig my PS3 out and connect it up to play them. I never played the first Kingdom Hearts but really liked 2.

Just trying to help...

Thats the thing though, a lot of the time its more the conversations being had over the gameplay than the actual game itself. It's still one of their most popular features they've done.

Thats how it tends to be for me as well. Watching Giant Bomb play 100 hours of Persona 4 was what got me obsessed with that game and made me buy the PS2 version, P4 Golden on the Vita and then go back and play Persona 3 Portable.
