I've said it before and I'll say it again, everyone who voted for First Past The Post instead of Proportional Representation is to blame. And what was it that everyone was boo-hooing about with PR? "Oh nooooo! It will lead to hung parliaments and coalitions!" Lucky we dodged that bullet then hey you bumbling nincompoops.

The palpable sense of relief upon opening a door that leads to somewhere I recognise as being near a save point is beautiful.

Especially in Bloodborne, where the stat boost is (relatively) marginal, and less likely to determine your chances of success.

It is free DLC.

Gun-Stunnable? She's next on my list and I'm a top-hat and cane kinda gal. I picked up the Saw Spear somewhere. But I don't like using it. It disrupts the fashionborne look. The only downside of threaded cane for me is lack of charge attack in whip mode.

It does indeed!

Platinumed Danganronpa 2. Screw you rng item drop trophy bastards.

Yeah, really. I use bullets to stagger enemies, but my timing is a bit off so I'll easily burn through 5 against a big scary or few. That means I can fight ~4 of them per life. I'm currently on a bit of a farming kick having finally and gotten the knack of taking down bag men for twin stone shards. After that I might farm for quicksilver bullets for a bit.

It's legit.

Haha, when I knew how good this is going to look.

I have blood vials coming out of my ears. To the point where I filled the storage chest as well as my inventory. Quicksilver bullets however. Those are a pain to farm. Giving me 20 of them every time I wake would be much appreciated.

Cheers Hotty! Arkham and Uncharted for me.

Done. Also, didn't realise that it was that "stream of conciousness" arse clown Tim Rogers. Still a good article.

This article makes the Castlevania comparison really well.

You often find that a term gets picked up by a couple of people and then explodes. One annoying recent one for me was (for obvious reasons): Netcode. As in "Fix the netcode DICE." By which people often meant, "I have latency issues when playing against West Coast Americans from the UK, please fix the laws of physics."

Yeah, there is a fair bit of that to it. Obvioulsy you don't get new ways of traversing, But there is that feeling of unlocking new areas and connecting them to old ones with shortcuts.

Feel like I have finally settled into the groove of this game. The biggest leap I find is swapping your concept of "progress". Progress used to mean going from a to b to c while your level goes from 1 to 2 to 3. Now progress is going from a to b to c to d so that you unlock a way to get from a to d skipping b and c entirely and then levelling up or repeating the cycle from a to d to e to f until you unlock the a to f shortcut. It's quite jarring at first because it sometimes feels like I've made no progress till I look back and realise that I'm skipping whole swathes that used to take 10-15 minutes to traverse and am wailing in on fights that would previously have been heart thumping, titanic struggles.

Ah, I thought Ivan worked for Stark, didn't realise it was his dad, and the extremis guy was a fired researcher of his. Oh well, the explosions and stuff were pretty.

Mostly current or former employees iirc.

That annoyed me too. It was probably the only "fresh" idea in the film, and they shot their bolt straight away.

That is the real issue. I only said the above to be like "I don't blame Lego that much for not having the domain already registered" Yeah, that's really the only unsavoury point for me. Mitigated somewhat by that fact that it pointed to stuff related to Lego Dimensions. If it had pointed to Polygon's front page, or an unrelated Mcwhertor article, I'd be less inclined to give him a pass. Very true, although in Lego's case, they hadn't even technically announced Dimensions yet and, if they wanted to keep it secret, buying the domain 'legodimensions.com' wouldn't exactly have been subtle. Still, McWhertor pls You can anonymously register a domain so that a WhoIs won't show the actual owner. Then for all the outside world knew it could have been John Legodo setting up a website for his mains electrical installation services. But then fountain-of-knowledge TN shows that even that argument wasn't well-founded. Yeah, sucks to be Lego – sucks even harder to be ethically-problematic McWhertor It'd still show up as a registration of "legodimensions.com" though, and concatenated like that it would almost certainly be read as a Lego thing, though I suppose it could be a wiki detailing the size and shape of every lego block. In an ideal world Mcwhertor would have gone all the way through to "Buy It Now" then sent Lego an email saying that the url wasn't purchased and waited to see how long it took for the domain to be snapped up. Such is life. I'd chalk this up to a no harm, no foul.

Given that Sony aren't crowing about the numbers. I'm guessing somewhere around not great and pants.
