  1. Watched X-Men: First Class tonight. Holy. Shit. I can't get over how insanely fucking GOOD it is! I thought that the first two Spider-Man and X-Men movies were good, but they just don't compare to First Class. I also used to think that Nolan's batfilms were in a class of their own. But I believe First Class ranks just as high. I almost wish it was a reboot rather than a prequel so they could build a new X-Men movieverse from it. Though I did get a good laugh out of . Oh and fuck Ian McKellen. Michael Fassbender IS Magneto. He just nails it.
  2. Finally watched Thor last night. It was very enjoyable, though it kinda bugged me a bit that basically nothing happens in it. I mean, there is very little story to speak of beyond Thor's character arc. It can basically be summed up as Though I did enjoy the cameo about halfway through (not Stan lee's...) It does work as an introduction to the character and set up for The Avengers, though. But other superhero movies like the first two Spider-Man, the first two X-Men and even the Iron Man series felt like they had so much more going on in them. I like what Marvel are doing with their movie continuity, but I feel like this movie was nothing more than a stepping stone to Avengers instead of its own thing that also leads up to it. Hopefully Captain American doesn't suffer from this as much.
  3. Was going to post the sword vs gun scene from Raiders of the Lost Ark, but after it was all typed up I went back just in case, and sure enough someone had already posted it So now I must think of something else! Oh! I know! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bL_8Ugp9zI4 This is probably my number 1 guilty pleasure movie. I know it's terrible, but I can't help it. I just fucking love it.
  4. Almost done! Only about 1 GB to go!
  5. If this is true, and I fucking hope it is, then I think this thread needs a title change.
  6. You know, reading through that thread, I noticed that both Dex's and Fuchikoma's bans from Joel said "see Community Guidelines", so I clicked on it. Such a fucking load of crap! And what a joke, too, considering that Joel is the only one in that thread that resorted to petty name-calling and insults. That guy is so fucking pathetic
  7. Just did a round of pre-orders. I wanted to place one for ICO/SotC Collection as well, but I'm still not sure how much money I'll have left at the end of the month after buying all my books and such, so it's on the waiting list Stupid physics class requires 2 damn books at about 50 bucks a piece edit: aw screw it, went for it Malicious, if you end up getting it as well, let's play some Spec Ops!
  8. Same here... It's the only COD I don't have. And at 15 bucks it's pretty damn tempting, even though it's the worst COD, imo.
  9. I can't comment on the comparison since I haven't played DA2, but the floors in Tartarus are randomly generated, so they all have a different layout and if you go through a previously cleared floor, it will be different. Though it's true that Tartarus is pretty much the same experience all the way through. You won't suddenly reach a floor that plays differently than the previous ones. But isn't this true of most dungeon crawlers, especially randomly-generated ones? Also, reading your post makes me wonder, how far along are you? Like, what's the highest Tartarus floor you've reached?
  10. Hey, I'm not proud of it What's stupid is.. I bought P3 and P4 at the same time about two years ago. Started P3 and played pretty much non-stop for about 2 weeks then sort of burned out and stopped. Then I once again started playing it a lot back in like february 2011, and after about a week I stopped again. I haven't touched it since, and I think I'm like 2 months (in-game) from the end of the story. I haven't started P4 because, well.. I need to finish P3 first
  11. Wait, is Aegis in Persona 4 as well as 3? Or will P3 characters also be in the fighting game? That'd be pretty cool! I really need to finish P3
  12. Ultima IV is currently free on GOG. Don't know if it's permanent, though, so might wanna grab it while you can.

      Here, now the lazy ones have no excuse not to get it.

      Awesome! Been yeaaaars! since I played an Ultima game...I can't even remember if I played IV.

  13. Just grabbed these two Mostly got the double pack for the Cthulhu game, as I hear it's awesome, but the other game doesn't look bad either. And Dredmor has intrigued me quite a bit ever since I read about how great it is both here and on PXOD itself. And, I mean, at five bucks it's no big loss if I don't like it. Also, I'm suddenly very intrigued by Dead Island. It seemed okay, but I wasn't planning on getting it anytime soon, if at all. But I just saw a video on IGN, they're calling it a "review preview", which is every bit as retarded as it sounds. But what caught my attention is that they're calling it "Fallout with zombies". It seems the game has heavy RPG elements and plays a lot like F3 and NV. They didn't say whether the game is any good, but if it gets good reviews, I'll seriously consider getting it.
  14. I have survived my first class! But I have to go back in about 3 hours and then once more tonight. Ugh, why did the semester have to start on thursday, i.e. my busiest day?!

  15. I played so much today that I had to stop just now because I was actually getting a bit sick of it I'm 14 hours in (in Hengsha) and so far I'm loving the hell out of it. I think so far my biggest disappointment is the music in Hengsha. The soundtrack is great overall. Very subtle and moody. But for Hengsha I was hoping for something more... memorable. Something a bit like this Probably won't be able to play tomorrow, though. Like, at all. Got class early in the morning, class in the afternoon and class in the evening. And another class early friday morning, so I won't have a lot of free time after my evening class... Though it's a bit fucked because normally there are work periods before or after the classes, so thursday is normally my busiest day. But since this is the first day, most classes won't have the work periods, so I'll be stuck with 2+ hours holes in-between. I'll probably end up coming back home between each class, which is about a 30-40 mins subway ride both ways. If my laptop was powerful enough, I'd install Human Revolution on it and find a quiet spot in the school library to play between classes
  16. Really tempted to pre-purchase Hard Reset on Steam, but I kinda wish I knew more about it...

      I'm on the same boat. Particularly, I want to know how long it is.

      Yeah, exactly. I mean, the developer has a pretty good pedigree considering it's mostly ex-People Can Fly and ex-CD Projekt RED. So it's not that much of a stretch to assume the game will be good. But at 30 bucks, I'm worried it's going to be like... 3 hours long.

      I believe Giantbomb had a quick look of it. Looked interesting at least. Very dark, cyberpunky world.

    Windows 8

    Frankly, I never really understood all the hate for the ribbon in Office. It's perfectly functional. I don't know if windows explorer needed it, but it doesn't bother me that they're adding it.
  18. Isn't that coming out in september? Yeah, just looked it up and it's september 29, not august 29. http://www.joystiq.com/2011/08/17/witcher-2-version-2-0-arriving-september-29-included-in-xbox-36/
  19. Doesn't mean I have to rush through! If I play 10 hours today, and then 10 hours tomorrow... That's healthy... right?
  20. Listening to this while the game downloads. Only 2 and a half hours to go http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZiN6t7K7txw
  21. Better play as a shooty man then. Blasphemy! Hacking and stealth (with the occasional murder) is the true Deus Ex way!
  22. LET THE HUMAN REVOLUTION BEGIN!

      Give me your code. I'll download it for you. :>

      How generous of you! Unfortunately I don't have a code since I bought it directly through Steam. Otherwise, I _totally_ would!

      The Revolution will NOT be televised.

  23. My financial aid for the semester finally arrived, so yeah, I think you all know what that means All that's left to see is whether or not I can finish it before the semester starts (the day after tomorrow). Quickly now, Steam! Download like you've never downloaded before!
  24. Yeah, I was playing the Enhanced Edition. I heard horror stories about the original release...
