What could possibly go wrong?!

Fucking Far Cry 2. I'm glad that gun jamming thing didn't catch on. Worst mechanic I've ever seen in a shooter.

That arrow was sorta based on an actual weapon used by his comic version. Come on, though, you have to admit that one scene was awesome. You know the one I mean.

Witcher for me too, but for different reasons. After Witcher 2 came out and everyone loved it like it was the greatest game ever made I decided to get into the series, starting with the first one. I knew Witcher 1 wasn't as good as 2 but I wanted to get the whole story so I figured I'd just put it on easy and blaze through it so I could get my data for Witcher 2. The game was good enough to keep me playing except there was one problem. GOD DAMN BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH. No matter what, I was guaranteed to get a blue screen while playing Witcher at some point between 30 minutes to an hour or so. Every single time without fail it happened, and I tried every fucking solution I could possibly think of to fix the issue, up to and including switching out the video card, and nothing worked. Short of getting a whole new PC, I flat out can't finish the game. To this day I have never played Witcher 2 because I haven't finished 1 and I just can't bring myself to start a trilogy in the middle.

They're thinking about making one.

Yeah but...it's free!

Yeah but it's free!

I thought Mercedes cars in Mario Kart was retarded until I saw the word free.

Can you dig it?

Well it finally happened. When Google bought Twitch people were worried that they'd fuck it up just like they fucked up youtube, but others were saying that such lines of thought were overly pessimistic and we should give it a chance. Turns out the optimists were full of shit because Twitch has just integrated a content ID system for archived videos. If any sort of licensed music is detected in the stream, an entire 30 minute chunk of the video will be muted, even if the song is only a minute long. To make matters worse, it doesn't discriminate between music you play over the stream and music that was licensed for the game, so if you ever want to stream Grand Theft Auto you had better never listen to the radio ever. The cherry on this shit sundae is that the system has been muting music that doesn't even need to be muted. Tracks from Danny Baranowsky (Binding of Isaac) get muted, for example, even though he never wanted to be a part of this system and even though THE MUSIC WAS MADE FOR THE FUCKING GAME. The only reason youtube gets away with this shit is because they have no viable competition. I can think of at least two other streaming services for gameplay, one of which is already accessible directly from the PS4. Twitch is fucked.

Ninja Turtles might overtake Guardians next week but I swear to god it better fucking not.

Which game is better, Settlers of Catan or Carcassonne?

Oh man, I forgot I ever made this thread. There's so much shit you could put in here nowadays.

OH MY GOD YOU GUYS I SAW GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY AND IT WAS SO FRIGGIN COOL AND HILARIOUS AND FUN AND I WANT THE BLURAY AND THE SEQUEL AND THE INEVITABLE AVENGERS TIE-IN RIGHT NOW YOU GUYS.

I picked up Space Dandy like a week or two ago and I love it. I wasn't sure what to expect from it but most of the time it's like Aqua Teens in space with better animation.

The test is standing up to Wally.

I'm not going to have time to see it until Tuesday or Wednesday at the absolute earliest. I hate you all.

I think what Strangelove is saying is that the presence of a minimap makes developers feel like they're justified in making big, empty maps with no personality because as long as players don't get lost then a huge map will artifically inflate the perceived size of the game.

Maybe it just never happens on other difficulties because you'd have to suck pretty hard to run completely out of supplies in the easier modes.

The office building isn't what gives me trouble. I'll tell you what gives me trouble. It was a pain in my ass then and it's a pain in my ass now.

Fighting runners isn't that hard in my opinion. The hard part is avoiding a clicker sneaking up behind you while you deal with the horde.

You actually fight them? That's a last resort unless it's a scripted event.
