  1. I had a little break in the game to listen to this.
  2. I haven't started it yet, so this may not be the best advice, but are you on the mode were you don't have perma-death? If you've got get rid of the risk of losing team members you may be more inclined to plough through. Having said that - you shouldn't waste time on a game you aren't enjoying. I'm sure like most of us you've got a dozen or more games you could move on to. Just because it's a good game doesn't mean it's for you.
  3. Anyone played the 4 purchasable streetpass games? They seem rather expensive, but I fancy getting them. If they were £10 for the 4 I would probably just buy them, but at £13.49 I need persuading.
  4. You're probably better off without someone that uses the phrase "conscious uncoupling".

      I think I saw this on the BBC News site with a pic of Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin. Presumably some celebrity breakup thing.

      "We've become conscious that our genitals no longer couple satisfactorily."

      I'm pretty sure he never had genitals to couple with, and hers were a long, breezy cave where she stored her day-old tuna sandwiches.

  5. Point 2 may be related to the 5 hour long credits that I do not give a damn about but am to scared to skip in case something happens.
  6. to be fair picking the answer out of the thread is like picking sugar out of salt. I know the answer and find the thread confusing.
  7. omg, that's so evil/funny/cute. Kind of surprised the dogs couldn't just smell where the treat is.
  8. mmm, but $15 isn't a good price if you've waited this long I'd wait some more for a better price
  9. hmmm, weirdly I can't see it on the EU Psn AT THE MOMENT at all. It was £3 odd though so would be $10 or less in US when reduced.
  10. Tokyo jungle is reduced at the moment, at least in the EU so you should have a look
  11. well, it can't be worse than the british in AC III
  12. How does everyone feel about the French Revolution setting? Is that what you were hoping for?
  13. Did any of you play Two Brothers? It seems to have had mixed reviews, but I sent them an email to see if it was coming out on other formats still and I got this reply: Sounds like the original was a good idea, but needed a bit of polishing up so hopefully the ports realise the original's full potential. BUT, how freaking cool does a mother-style 3D RPG sound? Hopefully they'll have more experience for their second game and it will be as good as one short sentence makes it sound.
  14. I just completed Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons in one sitting. I enjoyed it a lot. I would say it is my favourite storytelling experience of any game I've played - It conveyed everything it wanted to in a simple, non-intrusive way. A lot of games try to have too much story. It felt like a proper adventure to me, like LOTR, starting out in your village and everything slowly gets bigger and more daunting. The idea of controlling the two brothers at the same time worked well. I did get myself mixed up a few times when I had them on the screen the wrong way around. I guess some people may complain that it was too easy, but I think it was more about the experience than the challenge so I think it was pitched well. It was also a nice change to have a game without combat. I thought the graphical style was very pretty It had the same solid looking rocks that the cave had, and I loved the rocks in that game too - I think it's because they look like they're painted instead of trying to look real. I didn't like how the people looked though, they didn't seem to fit in to the world somehow, maybe they looked a bit Kingdom hearts? cartoons in a painted world. Anyway. Overall, this is the sort of game I could play all day. Been looking for things that are similar: Dust an elysian tale papo & yo to the moon ico journey two brothers, strangely similar title! came up. Would you guys agree or have any other suggestions?
  15. "a head mounted display with 1080p resolution" makes it sound like there isn't a screen for each eye, and that if it is 3D it wouldn't be 1080o for each eye. I really want full HD injected directly into each eyeball.
  16. Are they officially released in the UK yet or is that an import? edit: I see it's out in the UK now,I was sure I read recently it wasn't out for a while here yet. I kind of wish it would plug into a USB port as I don't have a spare HDMI port on my TV
  17. I love bassets. Was not expecting that many.
  18. It doesn't mention anything about stereoscopic 3D? I thought that was usually a part of VR. VR headsets were my last hope of getting more 3D in my life...
  19. I guess the EU one would just be UK worst for everything.
  20. Yeah I guess Nintendo just put the cheapest components in they can find. It seems to be their undoing on several occasions. I think I forgot to put my main 3ds bugbear in my original post so I may as well add that in now. It's the hinge on the 3ds. My original one was so flappy I had to exchange it and when I got my xl it seemed firm enough so I was happy they had improved it but over time it's got looser and looser to the point were I worry about it. And it's not from harsh use.
  21. you don't hold the pad as close as your 3DS or phone though do you? I think my order is phone closest, then 3DS then gamepad. I may hold it a bit closer when I'm using off screen play, rather than using it just as a controller and the screen is a menu, but I definitely not as close as the 3DS still. I can't be arsed turning it on to check, and I'm sure I can see the pixels on it, but I'm sure the pad's resolution doesn't bother me half as much as the contrast, nor the resolution on the 3DS. Maybe it's because of the bright, simpler graphics on 3DS games shows up the problem worse on the 3DS than the higher polgon/textures do on the Wii U? I swear I could cut myself on some of the 3DS jaggies. Just made a quick search: DPI of my phone is 329 (obvs, others are higher/lower) the gamepad is 158 3DS is 132 XL is 96 this ones not really as relevant, but a 42" 1080p screen is 53 DPI though you are considerably further away so the gamepad has a 50% higher pixel density and I hold it slightly further away than my 3DS XL so the pixels are a lot less visible.
