  1. Yeah, same here. I don't think I've ever repped any posts because I always forget the option is even there.
  2. A spoiler tag button? Just write the code yourself [ spoiler ] your spoiler here [ /spoiler ] without the spaces inside the [ ] edit: eh, replied first and then I saw you already put the tag up
  3. I'd put that in a spoiler tag, man... If I hadn't already read that somewhere else, I'd be pretty pissed off. A warning a single line above is really not enough. But yeah, I agree that it kinda sucks. I just started the game, played for about an hour and a half and so far it's okay, I guess. Also, so far it doesn't seem to really address the first game's cliffhanger, and that really sucks. I guess something could still happen, but considering the spoiler you posted, I don't think that's too likely... What is it with devs lately and making sequels that pretty much give the shaft to fans of the original ? Oh, and I guess it wouldn't be a Crysis game if it didn't run my GPU's temp into the 90s
  4. Finished the story of Disgaea 3: Absence of Justice earlier tonight. But while I technically "beat" it, I'm nowhere near done with it. I still have a ton of post-game content to unlock and literally thousands of levels to grind. Plus, playing the story itself unlocked zero trophies, so I have quite a few left to earn.
  5. Ha, a delay at this point is kind of hilarious. But yeah, I'm not entirely convinced this isn't a PR stunt either. Oh and what's that no oceans thing you guys are talking about?
  6. Frisky Dingo was absolutely brilliant and I'm still sad it got cancelled. Archer is almost as good, though. I've been holding off on watching Season 2 episodes so that I can watch them all without interruption once the season will be over.
  7. Well I don't know about not buying it. It's still early to tell and the design team seems to be doing a lot of things right. It just sucks that the PC version seems to be little more than an afterthought. I sure as shit ain't buying it for my PS3. It just wouldn't feel right.
  8. So basically the PC version is being handled by some no-name shit dev? That's nice... Also, Snowblind was supposed to be a Deus Ex game? I remember being intrigued by it back when I had a shit PC and could only run games released prior to 2004. Couldn't run it back then and I sorta skipped over it once I upgraded. I remember it looked okay for a relatively unknown game. It's 10 bucks on Steam, might look into it.
  9. Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man!
  10. Might want to put that in spoiler tags there, buddy. Yeah, I was planning on watching that... THANKS!
  11. Big Lebowski is brilliant, Dean I can't imagine how anyone could possibly not enjoy the hell out of it. Anyway, I recently got around to watching Tron: Legacy Didn't have huge expectations seeing as I had watched the original only a few years ago and found it kinda boring. But I actually enjoyed it a lot. I kinda regret not seeing it in theaters/3D. And now I can't stop listening to the movie's soundtrack. Daft Punk really did an awesome job scoring it.
  12. Funny you should say that. I ran into an old friend of mine on my way back from class this afternoon. We started talking and turns out he has like three friends currently working at Eidos Montreal, which is where Human Revolution is being developed. All three of them are testers, but still. Now I feel like I should've asked about it
  13. Alright, gonna try to catch up in a single post! Day 03: The only titles that come to mind would be stuff like Darksiders or Valkyria Chronicles. But I'm really not sure they're actually underrated. Maybe just not hugely succesful at retail. Day 04: I don't know, really. I can't think of a single game I'm ashamed to play so I'm going to stretch this a bit and say Rock Band. Simply because I sometimes feel like such a sucker for buying so much DLC for it. Plus I haven't used that keyboard all that much in the months since the game came out. Day 05: I guess Nathan Drake. He's handsome, funny, strangely sociopathic and is basically Nathan Fillion. Day 06: At first I didn't know but then I thought about it a bit and I couldn't believe I forgot all about motherfucking ZEKE The so-called "friend" character from inFamous. Holy shit that guy has got to die in the sequel. Doesn't even have to be elaborate or complicated! Have slip off the roof and break his damn neck or something!
  14. Yeah, pretty much. It doesn't really bother me that much, though. Even Half-Life 2 does that. Also, I mispronounced the title as "Deuce Ex" for the longest time A friend of mine actually still says it like that. As for the meaning, I've always assumed it was meant to be "From God". But really, who knows. Warren Spector, maybe? edit: actually, now that I think about it, "God from the" kinda makes sense on its own. (You might not want to read this next part Dean )
  15. Hahaha, I was coming to post this very video but you beat me to it. Yet another example of them seemingly doing it right. I hadn't really noticed the glow until you mentioned it. What immediately stood out for me was when the view leaves the first-person. I'll probably get used to it, but I"m afraid it might break my immersion a bit. I understand that it's practical and the cover system, while not entirely necessary, will probably be very useful. But I don't really see the point of switching view when using ladders. :/
  16. Holy shit! Disgaea 3 just ate my saturday evening without me even realizing it! Started playing around 6 and before I knew it, it was midnight O_O How the hell can six hours just disappear into thin air like that?!

      Although that Civ episode was closer to 10 hours...

      Yeah, Civ is evil.

      And apparently, so is Disgaea!

      Sir, the first one rocks all. :P

      It also introduced me to the lovely Pleinair.

  17. That's exactly what I said when the game was first revealed months ago That being said, I actually loved the demo a lot. I've already played through it half a dozen times and I don't think I'll be deleting it any time soon. There's a strong chance I might buy the game when it comes out. I love stuff like Street Fighter and MvC as much as the next guy, but as a kid I was all about Mortal Kombat. There was this bowling place right behind where I lived and they had arcade machines for MK 1 and 2 set up. I sucked and the damn thing would eat all my quarters in mere minutes, but I loved every second of it! I lost interest in the series when they started going 3D and seemed to only care about adding a fuckton of minigames. But I really dig how this one is going back to the basics. If the nostalgia doesn't wear off before the game comes out, they just might get my money.
  18. Haha, yeah. I've also decided to grab Nier soon. It's only like 25 bucks on Amazon.ca and I haven't heard a bad thing about it since the reviews.
  19. Eh, I make it a point to ask Dean where he is in the game. Then I completely miss the thread he makes, thinking he forgot all about it That's just like me... I'm pretty excited for Human Revolution. The original Deus Ex is probably my favorite game ever and the team making HR seems like they have the right idea. Everything I've read so far makes me wildly enthusiastic about it. I never could get through Invisible War, though. I started and got a few hours in last summer, but at one point my save kinda glitched and I found myself unable to complete an objective and none of my saves were in a position to avoid the fuck up, so I just stopped. Kinda feels like I should give it another shot before HR comes out... Anyway, here's a cool song by Yahtzee
  20. I have a verified e-mail address and all but I still haven't received any code telling me it's been activated. Though I haven't been on Steam much lately and it needs to be restarted like 3 times, so maybe it's going to kick in next time I log in, or something.
  21. Oops. Missed this yesterday. Day 1: First game I remember playing is the first Super Mario Bros. on NES Day 2: Favorite game character? Hmm, though one. A few years ago I would've said Solid Snake without any hesitation. But I wasn't a huge fan of Kojima's decision to turn him into an old man. So I think it's a tie between Nathan Drake and Sam Fisher.
  22. I started playing Enslaved yesterday and it's pretty damn good so far. It's tempting to call it an Uncharted ripoff, but the similarities stop at the platforming. The combat, being mostly melee-based, is entirely different. Plus, so far the enemies are mostly robots.
  23. Red Dead Redemption I'm not sure if it counts, though. I played the story missions to the end, but from what I heard, it seems I haven't yet reached the "true" ending. It's only a side-mission away, but I'm keeping it as the last thing I'll do in the game. For now I'm working on other secondary missions and trophies.
  24. Started playing Enslaved tonight and so far it's actually pretty good! But one thing that drives me nuts is when a game doesn't allow you to pause during cutscenes! I thought we were past that bullshit? People around me have the incredibly annoying habit of always walking into my room and starting to talk when I'm watching one and it drives me fucking INSANE!

      You play with people around?

       

      Hrmph.

      I fucking loved Enslaved, such a great game. The character development is just great and the environments are incredible.

    3. 「Advent Chaos」

      「Advent Chaos」

      Fucking shit, whenever you're not playing no one wants anything to do with you. When you start playing and key vital elements of the story are being played everyone wants your full attention. WORK START BUTTON WORK!

  25. Oh, damn! Wonders of the Universe started airing?! I watched Wonders of the Solar System last summer with a friend and we absolutely loved it! Gonna have to torrent it! Brian Cox is such a cool guy. He really seems like the kind who would go "You know what? Let's have class outside today!" every single week.
