  1. Just got done with my yearly replay of Ys I and II so... back to killing Nazis with Wolfenstein: The New Order. I absolutely hated the last game (I think it was the one that came out early in the PS3's lifetime) but I've heard good things about this one. Also people I know on Steam seem to like it enough to put in 30 hours. So this should be good. Now come on Mecha Hitler.
  2. Ground Zeros would be but as you've said, its too short. Phantom Pain will steal its year however. With that said, nothing really springs to mind since I haven't really played much games so this year games are quite sparse. I suppose I can shoot in Dynasty Warriors 8: Xtreme Legends Complete Edition for PC. Only real thing it is missing is online multiplayer. Absolutely shameful that they didn't put that in but besides that, it is indeed the best DW since 3/4.

      Kind of like the pet rock back in the 70's. Lives are damn near infinite.

      I'm personally appalled by the schistiness of its simulations. No erosion. No diagenesis. No metamorphism.

  3. I was going to do a status update but it was getting lengthy. Anyways, my setups at my parents place. Internet browsing station. I got a micro-HDMI cable today and it works out really well. The monitor is at 1920x1080 while the sound is going to my speakers. No crappy monitor speakers here! I suppose I could do some light gaming here but this is mainly for streaming and internet browsing. Main issues are the T100 weak wireless (I should look into it) and the overall system hangs a bit ever so often. No biggie. On a side note, this is a test run on me using the T100 for use with a projector or any other setup at CSUN. Unless something blows up, I think I can manage screen projection now... Here's my big tower. Big Picture mode works out really well. I also got my phone setup to control the mouse cursor so I can sit on the couch and watch shows and junk. Everything worked out better than expected. I just need to grab some good surge protectors for everything since all the ones around the house don't cut it...
  4. Dynasty Warriors 8 Might as well out this on here even though I never really consider the game beat until I unlock most of the stuff... Besides that... it scratches that itch left by DW4. DW5 failed to completely scratch it and DW6 was just plain heresy. I ignored DW7 due to DW6 but after seeing DW8 on Steam, I decided it was time and oh man, was it time. I bought it about 48 hours ago and I logged about 20 hours (So much damn free time). While I know some if not most of the improvements was done with DW6/7, I love... 1) Calling the mounts. It makes it pretty simple to move quickly through the battlefield. 2) The levels can be quite big. 3) Holy balls, the screen is filled with enemies. I think part of this is due to being on PC. 4) Weapon swaps. This is the best of both worlds that was done horribly wrong in DW6. If you skipped DW6/7. I think this is a good point to jump back in. Now for the mighty question... Do I see myself getting DW9? Hard to say but it'll depends on what they do with it. For DW8, it is nice to see characters to be more fleshed out instead of having same faces with tons of people (Still happens). Doing more of this for DW9 might get me to get it. I just don't know right now on what they can add or improve on.
  5. To be sure, not having this in season 5 would be heresy. Another problem is at the cave... Looked sweet but that is a problem.
  6. Hello! I'm Mal and I'm the residential not-so-official geologist. Think of me as Randy and it will all kind of make sense. And yes, alcoholic as well since beer.
  7. I'm just waiting for Metal Gear Rising and then I think I'm good.It doesn't make sense at all to get Dark Souls 2 if I still haven't beaten Dark Souls 1.
  8. Having a month or two off is terrifying to me. What am I going to do with myself!?

      No being screwed. Your parents might hear that, too.

      I suppose but seriously, all this free time is going to wreck me. I need some sort of routine.

  9. Geez, the 360 controller is as they say with regards to fighting games. It's terrible.

      I always bump start/back with my panic thumbs which brings up the command lists mid-fight :(

    Soccer

    Suddenly. People gives a shit about soccer.
  11. Lena Headey played us like a harp. Season 5/book spoiler. Oh well. It'll come. Well played... Anyways, overall I thought it was great finale. It kept alive theories which is nice.
  12. One last look before I take it all down in a day or two. My PS3 is behind my TV. It is holding up so far. If it starts to get hot in my room (which it can with my computer, monitor, TV and PS3 running), I turn on a fan to blow some air to that corner. I also would if I could mount my TV on an arm mount but those ones are expensive and I don't feel like drilling into the walls in a rental as a student. Besides, I have no idea if such a mount exist and if my wall can hold it up. And yeah, you can see my rock collection. More space for stuff. In TCP case, it makes sense to wall mount his TV. For you, you have a similar problem to me with a TV in a corner.
  13. Wall mount. That will secure your TV. Add in some rocks/weights on the bottom stand and it might work out. Worst comes worst is that any potential kids will become your child laborers.
  14. Looks alright. It will really benefit from multiplayer once that comes around. Also good initiative on charging the wizard with a shotgun.
  15. Now that I think about it, I'm bummed that we didn't hear anything about Sleeping Dogs: Triad Wars at E3.

      True. Clearly I was not thinking.

      Seems like a lot of devs/pubs are moving away from debuting games at E3. Which is probably wise, hard to compete against Zelda, Ass Creed, Halo, CoD, etc

      Oh crap, I didn't even know that was a thing. Thanks for the heads up, I look forward to anticipating announcements about it at games shows and being totally let down.

    I'm not watching due to reasons but stuff still come my way like this: Beautiful.
  17. Appears to be the Miix 2 8. 8 for 8" and I believe it is discontinued. There's a 10" and 11" now. Regardless, if I recall, the Miix 2 was my second choice after the T100.
  18. http://www.teslamotors.com/blog/all-our-patent-are-belong-you Lets see how this changes thing in a few years.

    Obviously you can't be 100% gay. A guy got to be slighty attracted to women! /s That is what I'm imagining is going through their heads. Kind of wish we were more like Dorne...
