  1. Bad meant cool, there's at least some kind of distinction there. Also I thought that one was dumb too.
  2. My DS3 charges when the PS3's off.
  3. Most of the time I'm okay with language evolving (which is not to say that every common mistake becomes correct just because it's common), but this one specifically really bothers me because it's "evolved" to mean the exact opposite of what it really means. It essentially makes the word useless.
  4. I use AC, it charges a million times faster that way.
  5. Apparently "figuratively" is officially in the dictionary as a definition of "literally". This literally makes me want to stab someone.
  6. Yeah, just got back, it's really good. It's not my favorite Marvel movie, but it's definitely up there.
  7. Cowboy, I take back every unkind word I said about Canada: I can't go see GotG tonight because we're going to the county fair...

      FLD, let's travel down to Iowa or Wyoming or wherever Ethan is from, and bust some caps in his ass, CANADA STYLE.

      You mean shoot him once, apologize, and rush him to the hospital? He might bleed out before you find the nearest hospital, just to warn you.

      More Canadians should come down south and teach people down here what real compassion is. Ass busting caps acceptable.

  8. Another teaser: Putting aside that this appears to be a F2P game so I'm not really interested, this teaser doesn't seem as interesting as the first one either.
  9. I just love that its abbreviation is TitS.
  10. People were ready for a new generation, but Wii U was just catching up with the last one.
  11. Contrast specifically probably wound up in good shape, because that game had some pretty serious issues that likely would have impacted sales.
  12. Yeah, but the deals are eating away at first month sakes too. I would have bought Rogue Legacy except I know it'll probably be free or cheap in a couple months, so that's a sale they lost.
  13. That was ODST's Firefight that we were playing that was so laggy, right? I played Destiny with Chronixal and there was no noticeable lag or latency for either of us. It was amazing. I'm sure a big part of it is that the world is actually running on dedicated servers, whereas with Firefight one of the party members was hosting. But based on my experience with it so far the biggest problem will be the time difference, no real technical issues.
  14. Unfortunate for devs, awesome for me. Probably working out fairly well for Sony too for the moment, though they may change their minds later when they're less concerned about boosting installed base.
  15. Yeah, a better strategy for Nintendo would have been to release it on Wii U first to boost sales, and then 3DS a few months later. As it is the 3DS version is going to cannibalize sales of the Wii U version, meaning it also cannibalizes any incentive to get a Wii U. They should have done the same thing with MK8.
  16. Yeah, that's part of it too: it feels just like Halo to me, but with less interesting encounter design and a progression mechanic (which I really really like), so I don't see how Halo could feel floaty but this doesn't.
  17. Huh, I have the exact opposite feeling: that the encounters in Halo tend to be crafted and well designed, but because of the open nature of Destiny and the 3 second respawn times Destiny's encounters seem super dull and repetitive by comparison. The actual act of combat is still fun though, so I enjoy it. I've never really understood what people mean by the "floatiness" criticism of Halo. Do you just mean the jumping? The jumping is floaty but I don't see why it would bother you... Options. I can see why you might not have the best experience playing with randos, but that doesn't mean you should be forbidden, especially since getting together a group of six people to play together is going to be extremely difficult for anyone not still in school.
  18. So raids can only be played with friends, no matchmaking, unlike strikes. I only have one IRL friend with a PS4. PXOD peeps, we're gonna have to unite for this stuff.
  19. I was really talking about Uncharted with the corridors thing. Like I said, I like it in TLoU most of the time except when they force the combat, like when you have to hold out in a room against waves of infected. That's just not fun.
  20. Because they rely upon waves and waves of bullet sponges coming at you down a hallway. It's just a tedious grind. I actually like it most of the time in TLoU because it encourages stealthing without making combat impossible, but I don't like the parts where you're forced to fight. In Uncharted combat is just a lame part I have to get through for the enjoyable stuff.
  21. I'm going to get this on PS4 eventually (waiting for a price drop since I already played the PS3 version) and I intend to go through on Hard, but I also expect I might get frustrated with the forced combat parts. Naughty Dog does everything in their games well except for the combat.
  22. Well that's dumb, they need to promote it.
  23. I've never heard of Road Not Taken, but it sure as hell looks interesting.
  24. Maybe I've gauged it wrong. If Enslaved is generally viewed as a terrible game then I would agree it's underrated. It was a fun game, I enjoyed my time with it, played it to completion and certainly don't regret doing so.
