Happenstance

Happy First Contact Day!

Yeah I did. Im planning on playing for a couple more hours before I head online but once I do that'd be good thanks.

I need to work on pushing through the early hours of this game. Ive only done 2 or 3 of the first quests and havent been back to it for a few days now. I know it gets better though so I need to get back to it.

Everytime I visit Leamington Spa I feel like im in a seaside town. I think its the long straight roads and style of buildings.

Terrible nights sleep. I was up pretty much every hour either with a really dry throat or to pee because of the water I was drinking to sort my throat out. Its a vicious circle I tells ya! Then wake up this morning and its absolutely freezing, turns out we've run out of oil so thats no heating until we can get a delivery.

Age of Ultron has been such a slow moving event. I know Bendis tends to be known for that but this feels worse than usual.

Women in the video games industry related: You have to wonder how Machinima thought this would go down considering everything thats gone on lately. Including the complaints from GDC parties just last week. I am surprised though just how many people in the Youtube comments are also against it considering that is usually pretty much the worst place on the Internet.

I ended up downloading the commentary and listened to it with the movie and thats the only extra I was really bothered about missing out on so I'd probably be ok now just keeping our crappy version.

Nah its ok thanks. To be honest the money has probably already been released as I sent back the broken phone last week. Its just because I cant check the card myself that I was wondering.

Were you getting yours replaced then because everyone else I've read about had their new Nexus 4 shipped to them first then sent the old one back after that. I had no choice as the return shipping label was coming g with the new phone. Plus the other reason they hold the money is in case the phone you are returning has a fault that isn't covered by warranty so you'll have to pay the full amount for the replacement.

Yeah pretty much the same for me.

Yep. Theres a lot of PSP and PS1 games that I would like to get for my Vita along with the free games that have come from PS+ but I can only hold a couple at a time at the moment on my current card and I refuse to pay a stupid amount to buy myself a 32gb card.

I wonder if this will help at all in getting more of their back catalogue available to buy again.

It just turned off one day and wouldnt turn back on. When you tried the notification light just flashed red. I checked online and it seems to have happened to a fair few people. Some managed to get it working again by holding down the power and down volume key but unfortunately for some like me it was just dead.

They really do seem to be putting in the effort to win developers over ready for the next generation, its nice to see as someone who's main console will likely be the PS4.

Meh, just habit. Plus I would bet that he'll be back on the forum after this years NE meet just like he was after last years.

Yeah once im finished downloading the Injustice demo I'm gonna get Okami. Might have to leave it going overnight though as its just over 6 gigs. One of those games I always heard was great but I never got round to playing.

Thanks. I did make a quick post about it in the good stuff thread but wasn't really looking to make a big deal out of it. Finished playing the demo eariler. I like a lot about the presentation of the game with the super moves and stage transfers but Ive got to admit im struggling a bit with the fighting system. Just havent really been able to get many combos going with any of the characters and while I know MK is slower than most fighting games as well, theres something about the moves in this that makes it feel even more sluggish.

Nice. @Goafer is planning on getting something similar for this years Extra Life event so we will be able to stream out both a PC and console feed this time along with the usual webcam.

Demo for this should be up this afternoon. Good timing for me as I'm trying to decide if I'll be keeping my preorder of the Collector's Edition or getting the 3DS XL next week instead.

Any of you had to return a device to Google before? I did my Nexus 4 the other week and was just wondering how long it usually takes for the payment they take out to make sure you send the old one back is cancelled. As I didnt use my own card because I couldnt afford it I havent been able to check if its still there or not.

Hopefully Falcon will look just as good in the movie because that concept art is pretty awesome.

Justice League and Justice League Unlimited have been added to US Netflix. I know what I'll be watching for quite a while.

I dont remember the specifics but I know I didnt like the aiming either. 3 also had stupid difficulty spikes. I ended up just putting it on the easiest settings so I could finish the story then traded it in.
