  1. I hope I won't have to wait months for the GTX 970 to get out of backorder. I want to try out my new card nooooow!

      Amazon hasn't shipped my order of Shadow of Mordor yet. :(

      Make sure you have the correct drivers installed and updated!

      It's taking forever for a coworker to pay me to build a complete pc out of spare parts I have, so hopefully it'll be out of back order by then.

  2. Well, I had to spend something like $10k on the card to get $200, to be fair. Edit: Which I did by only using that card to buy stuff, including an engagement ring, for about four months. Just reaping the benefits of my profligacy. Of course, I squandered those benefits on more profligacy. Anyone want to buy a GTX 570 for $50 plus shipping and handling?
  3. The card is on backorder, so I'm likely delaying playing SoM for weeks. I'm hooked on wasteland 2, so the wait is not a problem. Also, I got the card for around $190 because my credit card allows me to redeem points directly on Amazon orders which is totally boss.
  4. Just ordered one of these puppies: Insanely good value. Holding off on Shadow of Mordor till I get it installed.
  5. So that comic is bad because it mischaracterizes the loot cave as the only fun thing in the game when, in reality, it was just another unfun, but mroe efficient, exercise in the Skinner box button pressing that makes up the sum and whole of Destiny's gameplay?
  6. Shotgun = cone of cold, 'nades = fireballs. The further you get, the more you encounter enemies with attacks that work like cRPG magic attacks. The first time I blundered into such enemies, they TPK'd me in a single round. I am still loving this game, of course. I am pleasantly surprised by the balance inXile was able to strike between the speed of each level up with the relatively few skill points you get. Even if I save skill points between levels, I always feel like my characters are constantly improving. At least up through the mid-teens, where I am now.
  7. Wasteland 2: better than Destiny. http://bit.ly/1r6jTFf

      I'm cool and calculated like a wizard (from the moon).

      Wasteland 2: Still far less appealing than Destiny

      @FDS only to COD fan! Booooo!

       

      -goes and plays Destiny after-

       

      I enjoy both on a serious note.

  8. The cutscenes are key to understanding and enjoying the game, Mister Jack. And it takes a few viewings for the deeper meanings and connections to really set in, I hear.
  9. Been playing a bunch the past couple of days. Loving it.
  10. Like Borderlands. Oh wait, you said interesting. Never mind. Game of Thrones is what I was talking about, and you know it.
  11. Wasteland 2, which is exactly what I wanted and expected.

    Hardware Porn

    Mmmmm.... dat gtx 970.
  13. What a bunch of wuss-ass wimps you all are. Game over and save wipe is the only real death disincentive in video games. Any other method is training wheels.
  14. Mmmmmm, Wasteland 2. Yessssssss.

      Shameless Fallout ripoff.

      Shameless Syndicate ripoff

  15. HDD or mobo failure. Might also be the power supply, though usually power problems cause sudden shutdowns
  16. I would be, but I am out of town at a wedding. Not back until tomorrow night, which I will spend in the Arizona wastes with my crack team of rangers.
  17. Attention PC gamers: the new nvidia GPUs are unbelievably good. The gtx 970 is only $330, about $120 less than the comparable cards from previous generations cost at their launch.

      Titan isn't even top anymore, the GTX 780 Ti out performs it, iirc

    3. Mr. GOH!

      Mr. GOH!

      I thought the Ti was for Titan. But, yeah; the 780 Ti is the card for crazies.

    4. Faiblesse Des Sens

      Ti existed before the titan. This is Nvidia though so the performance for price is irrelevant. It's performance compared to other cards for the same price.

  18. But see FFIV. In keeping with FF canon and tradition, that black vehicle in the FFXV trailer is clearly a hovercraft. We can only hope that, at some point, the protagonists will exclaim that it is full of eels.
  19. Seriously, no one else thinks the characters look like awful people? Am I just too old for these new-fangled RPGs?
  20. Yeah, those dudes look like real douchebag J-bros. I mean, *fuck* that hair.
  21. I'm okay with Telltale moving on and dabbling in other interesting IPs.
  22. Kenshi any game that features character leveling and that people claim only begins after the max level has been reached is either poorly designed, an MMO, or both. All it really means is that the "real game" is chasing ever scarcer loot to upgrade your character because there's no more xp to be had. It can also mean that MP is only fun once you have all your levels, a design choice that seems un-fun in the extreme to me. Why force players to grind through less-fun boring parts to get to the "real game?"
  23. Eh, I'm a big Tolkien nerd and would hate play it to see how they mangle the lore anyway.
  24. and For 25% off on both through green man gaming. With these, Wasteland 2, and Civilization Beyond Earth all set to go, I am ready as fuck for the fall gaming season.
  25. On Friday, the 19th, the best game scheduled for September release will finally drop: Wasteland 2!

      Saturday night playing a retro-style PC video game. What about the LAN party? Lololololol

    4. Mr. GOH!

      Mr. GOH!

      Don't you fucking knock LAN parties, bucko. Without them, you'd never have your Halos or Destiny. I was LAN partying up with Marathon when all you could do is drool and shit yourself.
