  1. My Kirby amiibo just beat me on Final Destination at level 30. I've created a monster.
  2. Everything about the remote play for DA is fantastic except the retarded control scheme. What the hell was Bioware thinking? In what universe am I going to use the R1 ability button more than the attack button? They really need to fix that.
  3. Does anyone know if it's possible to change which shoulder buttons the PS vita L and R correspond to in remote play? I want to play Dragon Age but for some idiotic reason the shoulder buttons are bound to L1 and R1 instead of L2 and R2 like in every other remote play game I've ever played.
  4. So I finally clear out all the quests I can do in the Hinterlands, thinking that now I can focus more on the story, and then I go and unlock FOUR MORE MAPS. You're killing me, Dragon Age!

      There's a lot more story, too, I think, TME.

      Yeah I have so many side areas and shit to do right now. I think I might do one more side area, then the story mission (which is in another area anyways) then the other side area. So much to do lol

      I'm sure there are, because I've only done the trip to Val Royeaux as far as story goes. If there wasn't a lot more I'd be extremely disappointed.

  5. I imagine that most of us usually don't shop for games at Toys R Us, but if you buy Smash Bros from them next week you get a free amiibo.
  6. Does anyone know where to find more Bianca Arms schematics for Varric? His DPS is seriously lagging and I can't upgrade his crossbow any further because I only have Bianca Arms I.
  7. Playing Dragon Age has given me a renewed appreciation for console RPGs that utilize the whole "skills on the face buttons + a trigger for a second menu" control scheme. FFXIV did this too and it's really convenient. I know that PC players already have the number keys to do the same thing, but I could honestly never get used to using the number bar when playing RPGs on the PC. I always have to look down to make sure I'm pushing the right number on a keyboard, which slows me down during heated battles, but since there's only four face buttons on the pad and they're all pretty easy to find all I have to remember is to either hold down the trigger or not hold down the trigger. We've officially solved the problems that were preventing point-and-click RPGs from being on consoles for so long, so I'm hoping to see a lot more of them coming over in the future. Hell, there's even a couple free-to-play games I'd like to see ports of.
  8. Shit, I had a scare for about five minutes today when the game crashed while it was loading and my save got corrupted. Thankfully, it only corrupted one out of the three autosaves it had done, so after I went into my storage menu and deleted the offending file it defaulted to the one before it and all was well. Good thing, too, because I had been playing for about five hours at that point and if I lost all of that I think I would have rage quit the game for a day or two.
  9. God damn it. I really wanted shareplay to work but it just doesn't. Not on my connection.

      Obviously I meant making a wired connection, not wi-fi.

      Okay, that was not communicated by your question at all.

       

      Yes, that would be a thing to try.

  11. Pretty much what Ethan said. I thought Destiny would be a game I'd want to keep forever and boy was I wrong. I'm sure Dragon Age will be better but still, I learned my lesson.
  12. Destiny taught me to never buy console games digitally again, so I'm gonna have to go pick it up physically like a caveman. I'm mulling over going to the midnight launch since I'm probably going to be up anyway, but I haven't made up my mind.
  13. As a veteran Isaac player, I can tell you that Rebirth is indeed easier. I chalk it up to five main reasons: 1) There's actually a difficulty setting now. Normal mode won't spawn champion enemies as often and it's more generous with item spawns. 2) Items have better synergy now, which creates the potential for more powerful combos 3) No slowdown to mess up your timing. 4) The rooms were redesigned to be slightly less random, meaning fewer chances of running into an unbalanced room where it's practically or sometimes literally impossible to avoid taking damage. 5) Azazel. Still, I'm not about to say the game is "easy mode" or casual. It's still quite a challenge; it's just more fair now.
  14. So Sweden is thinking about adding a "sexism" label to their video game ratings system. Am I alone in thinking this is a terrible idea that could easily be abused?

      Sweden: where it is legally okay to be a prostitute, but hiring a prostitute is illegal.

      I'm not exactly against it...but I wonder how it'd affect the age? or would it?

       

      As long as they don't plan on banning games that cross the "sexism" limit, then they can do what they wish.

       

      Guess some may worry that it could affect sales if some feel a game isn't displaying sexism, but they do. Bah...I'm tired of all the nonsense.

      *age* meaning rating. My bad.

  15. I ordered a new battery for my Galaxy SIII so hopefully now it won't die after six hours. I went with an Anker battery, thank you Dean for the suggestion. I also bought a replacement Micro USB cable since the one I had stopped charging my DS4 for some reason. Aaand I needed to round it out a bit for free shipping so what the hell.
  16. I gotta spend 15 dollars on Amazon to qualify for free shipping! Someone give me ideas!

      See my above post or the Donation Thread. I couldn't make a US account just yet, so no widgets just yet. I've put in what I currently have. It's 2:30am atm, so I'll look into it tomorrow when I can grab Ethan or someone.

      I'm not on Steam very much recently, but hit me up on Twitter.

  17. Did we ever get one of those amazon clickthrough things? I anticipate buying a lot of stuff from Amazon this holiday season and if I can get this place a little bit of extra dosh by doing it through here then I might as well.
  18. I think PAX is the main thing that is keeping them relevant, and the comic readership is just a side effect of that now.
  19. I'm looking into getting an extended battery for my Galaxy SIII because the one it comes with is complete ass. Has anyone here already done this with a Galaxy of their own? If so, could I get a recommendation on which one to go for?
  20. Fuck you if you've ever used the word "mansplain" non-ironically.
  21. Word is that Assassin's Creed: Unity is a glitchy, unfinished sack of crap. Caveat emptor, guys.

      I guess I should have gotten Far Cry 4 instead. :(

      I felt a little bit the same, Tenshi - but then I remembered Far Cry 3 scratched that itch perfectly and I don't really feel the need for another one yet

      Unity is a really good game, and the problems will probably get ironed out in coming weeks

  22. Binding of Isaac: Rebirth. Holy crap it's like a brand new game. There's so many new items that combine with each other in so many crazy ways that you never know what you're going to end up with. I collected a charge shot, bloody shot, and pulse shot in my last run that ended up turning my wimpy little tears into giant bloody vomit chunks that could kill a boss in four or five hits. On top of that, I picked up a piggy bank item which spawns coins every time you get hit, and a familiar who picks up money off the ground and then spawns special items. For a brief period, I felt like a god.
