Forgot to post here but I also beat Mass Effect 3 a few days ago. Ending was disappointing but nowhere near as terrible as everyone on the internet made it out to be. Overall the game was still a damn fun 30+ hours.

Spent the past 4 hours finishing the game. Now I'm tired and going to bed. But before, there's just something I want to say. *clears throat* FUCK YOU, INTERNET!! Ah, that felt good. Seriously. The ending was disappointing, but holy shit was this blown WAY out of proportion. I guess some people just had such a raging hate-boner for Bioware and EA that they were going to fucking despise it regardless, but what the fuck. I had fun right up until the credits rolled.

You know, it actually really feels like they wanted to just ditch the graphic novel style but felt obligated to include it somehow, so we get this half-assed crap. I don't know, I'm still not convinced that the writer of GTA and RDR can pen a Max Payne story. A good story? Probably. But his overall style just doesn't seem to fit the series. At this point I'm really just looking forward to playing a Rockstar-designed shooter. Gameplay should be pretty amazing considering the focus of the team was designing the shooting mechanics as opposed to creating an open world.

Wait, so text is actually going to pop up like that during cutscenes? That looks so fucking retarded... Ugh, I still want to play it as I'm sure it's going to be an amazing shooter. But this trailer really didn't put my mind at ease as far as the storytelling is concerned.

You shut your filthy whore mouth, Excel! Or I'm going to hurt you!

I have also grabbed Tried it a bit this afternoon. Seemed fun but it froze on me during the second level. Like, complete system lock up. :/ I suspect the game isn't entirely at fault, though. Been happening in the Diablo III beta as well. Also, this Through Origin... I feel dirty. Someone hold me...
-
Got an email about a 50% off sale on Origin last night so checked it out, not really expecting to find anything. Then I saw this for 15$. I remember hearing good things about it around release and while it was never really a priority, I'd been meaning to play it at some point and this was too good a price to pass up. I love how these Origin sales apply to console titles as well. I mean, it's obvious that their goal is to promote the digital side of things but I'm really not sold on the idea of actually buying a PC game on there. That being said, Dragon Age II for 10$ is kinda tempting... I mean, I still feel like they removed everything that made me love the original, but for some reason I've been thinking about maybe giving it a shot lately. I would much rather have it on Steam but at this point it doesn't look like it's ever coming back on there and 10$ is hardly steep...

Might want to make sure that they'll ship the steelbook right away, then. I know Amazon.ca doesn't ship pre-order bonuses in advance. When I pre-ordered mine, I went to ebgames.ca because Amazon.ca didn't mention the steelbook. They now do but they also specify that they'll only ship on release day. So if it's the same for Amazon.com, then you'll probably lose your steelbook if you cancel the PS3 pre-order.

Agreed on the Vanguard. I was soldier in ME1 but then prior to ME2 launch they released a promotional video about the class and showed Biotic Charge. I knew instantly that I needed to switch to it when ME2 came out and I've never regretted it. Biotic Charge + Claymore shotgun is a very deadly combination and the strong melee attack in ME3 complements it quite nicely!
-
Well, that's enough math for today. Time for some Mass Effect 3
And since it's friday night and I've been a good student, I think I'll get me some beer! Can't be saving the galaxy sober!-
get shepard drunk in the bar. it's lollerskates

Man, so many spoiler tags in here. Must tread carefully... So, I'm about 15 hours in so far. I guess maybe I'm about halfway through? I really have no way to be sure but I'm really taking my time and generally try to clear all the side-quests I can before doing the major plot quests. I was so in a hurry to finish ME2 at launch that my final mission was quite the disaster. I was very thorough when I replayed it on PS3 and I won't be making the same mistake again! Anyway, earlier I completed what seems to be the first major plot point. For reference, it took place on Tuchanka.

Way earlier than I usually place my pre-orders, but considering I do it exclusively online, I usually miss out on stuff that stores hand out early like the steelbook. But ebgames.ca mentions that you get it "at the time of purchase", so I'm not sure if they're going to send me one right away or just hang on to it until launch (fat chance of that lol), but according to their site, I *should* be getting one! I normally don't care much for steelbooks when they replace the regular box (like with the N7 Editions of Mass Effect) but in this case it's more like a badass collectible, so why the hell not. edit: just got a shipping notice for the steelbook! I was worried they'd charge me for the full game right away, but it seems they didn't. The only charge from them is for 0.00$, which I'm guessing was only a verification thing for the credit card.
-
Ugh, for once I actually try to be a good student and decide to open the books and do some math while it's still early. But I just can't get my head into it >_/emoticons/default_sad.png" alt=":(" srcset="

3 weeks? Oh well oh jeez, I thought the test was soon. Well yeah of course you're not gonna feel like crunching some numbers, you shouldn't think too much about it and just relax.
-
My finals are next week. Woooooo, quarter system.
-
That sucks Malicious. I have spring break this coming week and it's gonna be practically spent finishing ME3 then playing Amalur

Grabbed inFamous 2 Festival of Blood since it's less than 5 bucks atm. Haven't played inFamous 2 yet, though. Should I hold off on playing or is Festival of Blood mostly spoiler-free and/or completely unrelated (like Undead Nightmare)?
-
Completely unrelated, but I'd probably play the main game first.
-
I have not played inFamous 2, but I played Festival of Blood. Didn't spoil anything for me and got me pretty excited to eventually get to inFamous 2. Have to finish the first one though.... ugh tunnel level ugh.
-
Hmm, well I don't think I'll be playing it right away anyway, so I guess I might as well wait.

Grabbed a few things on PSN last night. It's a pretty good week for PS+ subscribers. Got the original Sly Cooper along with two weird games called Hamsterball and Battle Fantasia, all free. They're also giving away SSFIITHDR and Umjammer Lammy, but I already owned both of those. Other than that, I bought the From Ashes DLC for ME3 along with inFamous 2: Festival of Blood and Chrono Trigger, the last two being being on sale for less than 5$ each. I'm debating getting Journey as well, but 15$ seems a bit steep to me. Especially after having just spent close to 20$.
-
About 4 hours in so far. First impression is it feels a lot like ME1. I am not displeased. They actually brought back a lot of elements I missed in ME2. Mostly small details, but I'm glad to see them back nonetheless.

Got my ME3 shipping notice
Looks like I'm getting it tomorrow. As much as I hate buying from gamestop.ca, their free shipping is actually pretty fast. I rarely get my games on release day with Amazon.ca- Show previous comments 4 more

Yeah, that's pretty much my experience with them. I think once I actually got a game a day early. Sometimes I get it on release day but usually it's a day or two later. No big deal.
But sometimes it's fucking ridiculous. There were a few times where release day came and my copy still hadn't been shipped, and the shipping estimate was a whole week later. When that happens, I usually just cancel the order and go out and get the game from a store.
-
I have never in my life gotten a game before street date. I feel left out.
The closest I've come was Best Buy trying to tell me that Twilight Princess on the GC wasn't releasing until 3 days later. I went to Walmart and bought it there instead.
-
lol It's not always awesome. One time, Gamestop (US) sent me the Limited Collector's Edition of MGS4 a day early.
Problem is, I didn't have my PS3 yet >_<
-
I assume that was in reply to my post? If so, I didn't mean the "feel" of it. I was referring more to how Brotherhood and Revelations are basically the same game. I don't want ACIII to be set in a single city which I will slowly renovate for no reason whatsoever. I still want to run around on rooftops and stab people in the throat, just make the general structure of the campaign and side-stuff a bit more interesting.
-
Okay, so this is basically what I was hoping for. They've been working on it for a few years now and it looks like they improved the engine and everything. If that's all true, then as long as they basic gameplay formula isn't lifted straight from Brotherhood and Revelations, then I'm definitely back in. http://gamingbolt.com/assassins-creed-3-info-blowout-new-engine-protagonist-information-new-camera-animus-3-0

PC version. I heard it runs like shit on some most systems but I've wanted to try it for a while now and it's currently 3.75$ on Steam, so if it doesn't work I won't lose much sleep over it.

I just hate how exam logic works. I was convinced I'd totally nailed my calculus mid-term but only got 78. Then I spent the past week convinced I'd somehow screwed up my programming exam on C and today I find out I got 92. Go figure.

I know what you mean. I came out of my exam today thinking "that was harder than it needed to be" and just saw my grade and still got an A
-
I got a calc mid-term tomorrow... blah. I am going to die, for real when combined with a chem mid-term.
-
It always happens. My first ever essay at uni, don't think I've done well, didn't care about the topic, got 72 (a great grade at this uni). Wrote a massive, passionate essay about More's Utopia, feel like it's amazing, and get 62

comic book

Damn! Count me out
-
Is there even a new movie version of those Avengers in the works?
-
That's true, and I thought the ending was actually quite good. But it was (no actual spoiler, but I don't want to blurt out details people might not want to know)
-
My excitement went down a notch when I remembered that EA owns Maxis and as such that this all but guaranteed to require Origin and not be on Steam :/ But still, glad to see it's on the way. Can't wait to hear more about it.
