Gods, it's hideous. What does skyrim do? Let you walk normally? I get why they do it, teleporting does do wonders for motion sickness, but that looks like a hideous experience.

@deanb agreed. Big nope. Not familiar with the source material but the bug eyes thing makes her look like a flippin' Powerpuff Girl. Also, Ready Player One seems to have captured the source material perfectly in so far as it is a list of things that people may or may not be nostalgic for.

#ThatsWhatSheSaid

Haha, have added everything I can see that I would like. I'm time poor and tend to only play games during lunch breaks.

Couldn't agree more. World War Z was about trying to stop a glacier, not outrun a flood. The point was that running from them is easy until you end up with no place left to run to. It's a completely different type of scary. “World War Z is a name synonymous with heart-pounding fear and action, and we’re excited to finally capture that energy in a fast-paced and gruesome experience crafted specifically for modern consoles and PC,” said Saber Interactive CEO illiterate numbskull Matt Karch in a statement.

Which one? Rampage looks crap, am curious to see if the next coin-op movie will be Bubble Bobble, or Altered Beast.

Same same.

I think GTA would be a decent setting much as I have parted ways with that series, it works on stories of revenge and tribalism so feels like a natural fit.

Other than this (which doesn't necessarily *need* a kinect) no.

I am delighted that the game gives you time off. Tuesday-Thursday I play a fair bit, by Friday I've done everything I want to do and I can have some time to play other things. Stops me burning out on the game.

Did you guys play Dead Space 3 online, with mics? Cos that was some messed up shit. I remember playing Isaac while my mate was the other dude, and I started tripping balls, seeing birthday shit everywhere, following people he couldn't see, or shooting at non-existent enemies. It was brilliantly messed up.

Universal Paperclips: http://www.decisionproblem.com/paperclips/index2.html. A cookie-clicker, with an end.

I also completed JC3. Had exactly the same issues with it as Mister Jack. The only tree I maxed out was the tethers one, everything else, I just muddled through with what I had. The upgraded tethers came in very handy when I turned up to the final boss fight with a sniper rifle and a machine gun.

Not sure if you're being facetious, but he's not necessarily a bad journalist, he just sucks at side scrolling shooters.

Disconnecting would "fix" it. But as you say, it shouldn't come to that.

Just Cause 3 is an absolute fucker for this. It doesn't just do it the first time, it doesn't have a "play offline" option and their servers seem pretty flaky so every challenge is delayed by connecting to server crap, which totally spoils an otherwise really fun game.

I thought Cowboy was just trolling...

Why oh why oh why

I'm also in the Jon and Dany will blatantly hook up camp. I don't think burning the grain was Dany going full Aerys. I think it was a tactical decision. They are very near Kings Landing with a large Lannister force approaching. There's no way Dany can get the grain to Dragonstone, so the next best option is to deny it to the enemy. So she torches it. Dany and Jon marriage is the only way to resolve the Northern issue. Jon and Dany rule in Kings Landing. Sansa is Warden of the North, Tyrion is Hand, everyone is happy. Most people won't make the link between Dany and Jon being aunt and nephew, and even if they do, Queen Victoria married her cousin and we're all completely fine with that. Plus that way we get Dany and two other Targs (in the form of Jon and Tyrion) riding dragons which is going to be aces.

Dracarys. Best moment of the season.

I remember the mine one being there but originally, it was a 1% spawn rate for the chest and a 10% chance that the spear was even in there.

Yes! I've had a constant trickle of games that I've been enjoying on it. Was just introducing my sister (who also has one) to I Expect You To Die (which is getting more content soon) and Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes this weekend. Edit: I also finally solved the HDR throughput problem with a switch box and a couple more cables.

Dodging lightning bolts was the absolute worst.
