Awesome! \m/ \m/ I also hope they'll increase the amount of players for the PC version, hell, increase the amount for all versions!

Not sure, I think it was DuckTales.

Those shows are also the only ones I watch there, also, there's a show here called "Extra Normal", basically, a bunch of dudes talking about stuff they know nothing of and trying to tie it to anything paranormal or whatever they call that stuff, the first time I watched that show I honestly thought it was supposed to be funny, and everything there was a joke or something, but apparently they are serious about it, a recent example of their stupidity: They showed this and then one of them said "this is an energy vortex forming inside earth's atmosphere, most likely it's channeling energy to the inner earth that's described in the hollow earth theory"... Like... I'm not even kidding, that's exactly what that dude said. So, after that I went to their website to see if they had that episode online so I could share their stupidity with others, and I find that people there actually believe them. I was really surprised by that. And it's the same with everything, earthquake somewhere in the world? They'll say it has something to do with the four horsemen or something like that, and the list goes on...

I know I'm late (PC was sent for repairs and I was trying to work on my games backlog ), let me say about this, Tom Araya, vocalist and bassist for Slayer is a religious individual: As for actually contributing to this thread (and to be honest, after reading what you guys have posted, I feel way too stupid to participate here ): I was raised by a Catholic father and a Christian mother, while the rest of the family takes each of their traditions and whatnot very seriously, I stopped believing in god a while ago. I like the philosophies of some religions and stuff, and recently I began reading the Poetic Edda, which contains stuff from Norse traditions and stuff, from that, what I really liked is the Hávamál that contains "phrases" or "sayings" cool stuff really, if you can I suggest reading it. Here, part of it: Cattle die, kinsmen die the self must also die; I know one thing which never dies: the reputation of each dead man So yeah, I still feel like most of you are way too smart for me (Edit: Which may or may not be obvious... ), but I also felt like just posting that bit about Slayer wasn't enough...

I enjoyed Too Human, it was a really fun game. When I bought it I already knew that a sequel wouldn't happen (probably) but still, the concept was interesting enough to me.

Hyperdimension Neptunia. \m/ \m/

From what I've seen, it's pretty easy to use. Also damn, I need to upgrade my PC I can't work with the UDK for long without this thing threatening to blow up and kill me.

After reading and watching some stuff from that game, I have to say, I would like to see it on those platforms too, unfortunately, I don't think it'll be easy to get it there. Also, Amy sounds cool from what I've read about it, I'm waiting for more details now.

and

After watching this: http://www.giantbomb.com/quick-look-ex-skullgirls/17-3845/ I guess I'll add Skullgirls to my list.

I really enjoyed the first one, the sequel was really fun too, though I didn't like that I couldn't carry a full arsenal. Still, both are really good games, I haven't played any of them online, but the coop in 2 looked pretty cool. I've also yet to play Resistance Retribution, played the demo, but since I couldn't get used to the controls I haven't gotten the full game yet.

Speaking of that, one of the things I have to check before buying the tickets and stuff is that, do you personally recommend that Travelodge thing? Or anyone else, do you recommend any hotels close to the Expo and stuff?

I would like to go, but I'm already planning a trip to the UK in July thanks to this: http://uk.sonispherefestivals.com/ So I'm not sure returning there some months later is possible as far as money goes. Still, considering there are a lot of dudes from here going to that Expo I'll try to be there too!

Yeah, I was thinking that summer would be a good time to try and get this working. It'll also allow me to get some practice on both Unity and UDK.

According to this: https://store.unity3d.com/shop/ The "base" version of Unity is free, this is the engine used for Interstellar Marines, looks cool, but I don't know if anyone here has heard about/used it before. Also, it looks like UDK offers better stuff and it's easier to use, so I guess it's better than Unity, but I'm not 100% sure of that.

Brink Hands-on Previews: Part Deux Again, lots of interesting stuff, I like how they made it so that even if you can't talk with others it's still easy to complete objectives like a team and stuff. "The end product works surprisingly well. My fellow writers and I -- none of whom I'd met before -- completed two challenges as a cohort of silent killers with time and lives to spare. Smartly, the console tells you how many teammates are suited up as each class, so it's easy to maintain a balanced crew suited to any objective. We played as the Security, and one objective tasked us with escorting an injured comrade. After accessing the console, I saw that our team was stocked with medics, so I picked the engineer in order to lay down remote turrets at choke points and protect our escort as the medics fed him health packs. Both challenges required precision teamwork skills, and yet we didn't need to speak one word to get them done. The braying morons who love to lob hate-filled insults on Xbox Live are going to hate Brink because of that...and that's more than enough to get me interested." From the BITMOB preview.

Told you!... Maybe I didn't... But I did told you to chill and wait right!... No?... Ok then, maybe I just thought about it... Anyway, seems like they're keeping the covers intact, so now to decide, which one to buy? Also, I wonder if they'll leave the original difficulty or if they'll change it, apparently it was too freaking hard in some levels or something. Edit: Official site http://www.catherinethegame.com/

Invasion of the Brink Hands-on Previews Lots of cool info there. \m/ \m/ Special focus on there parts from the VG 24/7 preview: "Underpinning the class system is XP distribution. XP is distributed with an eye on how effective a player you are being for your team, not how awesome you are at headshots (which, incidentally, will only ever result in a one shot kill if you manage to land one on the very agile and fast moving ‘light’ body type). “The scorecard at the end of the round doesn’t show kills,” Stern explains. “Of course we track that information and if you want to set up a multiplayer server that’s all about that, the data is there for you. “But we’ve seen what happens when you rank players by kills on objective-based maps: you get medics that won’t revive players and soldiers that won’t give out ammo, because everyone is just chasing kills. “We look at how to incentivise players. We give you much more XP for buffing your teammates than for kills, and we smother you in XP for actually doing the objective. In addition, the XP that we do award for kills is proportional to damage, so if you cause 90 percent of the damage to an enemy and someone else swoops in and delivers the final shot, you will get 90 percent of the kill XP.”

Took me a while to read this whole thread, but it was fun, lots of interesting stuff here, reminds me of when we discussed the Spanish language in school (differences between regions, countries and more ). Anyway, based on that list that was posted by Dean when he started this thread, I can say I mix both, I use both words from American English and "UK English", probably because my school had English teachers from all over the world. Still, there are some words there that were completely new to me. Also, going back to the "Cornetto" thing we have Cornetto and Magnum here, so if you ask for a Magnum you'll get this: As for pronunciation and stuff, it was cool to hear dudes speaking, interesting way of learning more about you guys. I used to speak without an accent (as in, without a "Mexican" accent) back when I was in school, but since then I haven't used English in conversations with other dudes so I'm sure that has changed a lot.

Valkyria Chronicles 2 MGS: Peace Walker The Persona series Knights in the Nightmare

The Giant Bomb guys and Gametrailers, though I tend to ignore reviews if the game looks cool enough to me.

The only game that has caused me problems was Halo Reach, during cut-scenes and stuff it had way too much motion blur or something.
