    "Deja Vu" "What did you say?" "Deja Vu. I saw a cat go past in a box on a skateboard, then I saw the same cat in a box go by on a skateboard again" "A deja vu is usually a glitch in the Matrix. It happens when they change something"
  2. http://store.steampowered.com/app/102500/ Kingdom's of Amalur is on sale. I'm quite enjoying it, certainly a good game for that price. I'm kind of annoyed I can't get the DLC :/
  3. So I guess my suspicion on Nintendo's denial wording was correct, they are intending to make a mobile app. There doesn't seem to be any specific info on what it'll be for though, just what Nintendo hope it will do. Their shares have fallen even further since the presentation so it's pretty clear that no one is buying what they're selling. It just sounds so damned half-assed, half-baked or late. Hooray they'll announce NFC stuff at E3, nearly two years since the console came out with NFC capabilities. They're going to make use of the Gamepad more..because why was this not a specific internal policy already? Oh and hey Fitness games, with Wii Fit being one of the top selling games on Wii, despite the requirement of extra hardware that's normally a death knell, and Wii Sports and Sports Resort being pretty popular too, you'd think they'd have had a fair bit of a focus on that come this gen as well. Oh and the aforementioned app that'll convert people over to Nintendo devices. Somehow. Oh and you can download NDS games on your Wii U, but you can't download NDS games for the 3DS, and they still haven't released the GBA and N64 games yet either. I'm to understand China never got a mention either, which could be spot Nintendo could really excel in. I don't actually want to be pretty harsh on Nintendo, they've knocked out some cracking games Miyamoto is a cultural icon and Nintendo have a pretty important part in video gaming history. But like all history
  4. I'm still currently playing Kingdoms of Amalur. Man it's a pretty big game. I'm only like a 3rd of the world in, though I think it's wanting me to be dashing across places since many of my new quests are several zones away. It used to be each new quest was in the next zone over, slowly leading you across the map. Pretty much my only grievance with the game is my fighting seems slower than enemies (allowing them to interrupt my attacks, but I rarely have chance to block or dodge theirs), and the menu system is horribad.
  5. I might be missing something here, but there's only been 3 episodes so far right? 1st was set in ISIS/FBI HQ, second they went to Miami with shots of mansion, and only in this one was it a wholly "mansion episode", and we're only on the third episode. Going off Archers fantasy/mini-trailer in episode 1 still got to head out on tour for Cherleyne, invade Laos and go to whatever island it is that popped up in the trailer too. And float around in the ocean a bit.
  6. So is that FU aimed at me, or is it aimed at Google who made the Google Chrome Browser, who partnered with Lego and who own the "Buildwithchrome.com" domain instead of the "buildwithchromeandfirefoxandoperaandmaybesafariandlolnoie.com" domain? I mean, "website works on web browser" is a bit of a non-story in this day and age, but whatever rocks your boat of pedantry.

    The caption said "damn this static", but folks are pointing it actually just cos it's a pure-breed and thus has a flat face it's not meant to have.
  8. http://www.buildwithchrome.com/builder Build lego things in Chrome. Also I do like that advert but I may be biased in many many ways.
  9. http://imgur.com/a/wSvE3 Some stills from the film.
  10. At least you're taking corrective actions.
  11. It does just say "Toad (past)" though. It explains nothing. It also says about characters from the original (future) X-men joining forces with the new (past) first class X-men. And Toad was in the original film. Your link was the complete opposite of a concrete explanation on why it isn't the Toad seen in X1.
  12. See I expected to have to require to reformat but I slipped it in new PC and it booted up fine, just had to reactivate Windows. Oh and sit around for ages as it got all new drivers.
  13. See I was going to mention something on the counterfeit thing since Bitcoin and all, but IANAL.
  14. My recent build was just a smidgen over £600, but I already had Win7 and HDDs and blu-ray drive (oh and monitors too I guess). In general I'd jam in a bunch of components that match your budget, double check they're compatible (Mainly gonna be the MoBo/CPU to check here) and then hit up Toms Hardware and co checking out benchmarks for those components and tweaking price:performance ratio of your build. One thing I saved pennies on was opting out of the OC-able CPU saving a pretty penny since I know I don't overclock. I would strongly recommend a Shadowplay capable Nvidia GPU(GTX 650+) by the way since I know you're quite into your streaming and stuff, having it built right into the GPU would likely be up your alley.
  15. New Terry Gilliam film. Probably going to be worth watching. (also just me or does Christoph Waltz look a bit like Malkovich?) Also no idea why it's sub-HD, I can't find anything HD or even approaching it elsewhere, but I guess they'll crop up eventually. And more Maleficent

  17. http://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2014-01-28-nintendo-denies-report-of-going-mobile Nintendo denies it, it was a previously suggested idea but one they'd opted to not go through with. Which is great cos the described system would have been a half-ass to the extreme. (p.s not they said "we can confirm that there are no plans to offer minigames on smartphone devices.", so not ruling out games overall)
  18. 1. FDS is correct, it's past toad (as below image will illustrate) 2. Days of Future Past is a fucking awesome comic book name. Far better than plain jane "Civil War". The full stitched panorama. I guess it answers my question if they'll have Nimrod in. I've a feeling this is going to be a lot of folks to wedge into a movie, should really be a trilogy to fit all the elements of DoFP into it (heck it was a whole series back when cartoon X-men covered it) (right click - "open in new tab" for this one. It's big.)
  19. It's worth noting these are just Empire covers, so shitty poses n photoshopping are on their heads. Costumes on Singer.
  20. http://www.siliconera.com/2014/01/27/report-nintendo-release-game-demos-information-via-mobiles/ Huh. This seems a bit confused on if it's going to be like "Pokemon X/Y: The Demo" or like "Pokedex scanner app thing" kinda like what Sony does with it's games.
  21. First official shot of 12th Doctor.
  22. Goddamit I hope he hasn't got a big part in it. The rest are pretty neat though (there's only a handful up so far though so keep checking back) http://imgur.com/a/lZszR

    Help!

    Well today is monday and I haven't actually given the nod on doing the server move yet so anything seemingly fixing itself is likely anomalous.
  24. Yeah there's "this game bares a fair bit of similarity to our game", which is your regular work day in the games industry, only 8 games in the world etc. But to accuse another studio from another publisher of theft of code is a pretty series accusation to make and you'd be wanting to have something to back you up. Especially since it would seem we're all seeing the same videos he is, and not the source code.
