But you're the one playing it at 30fps
On a console though.
>_>
Only playing it because missus got it on PS3 and we did the $15 PS4 upgrade thingo.
Ah so you can look past the limitations when you can't change the options. I was the same with Last of Us and GTAV on PS3, god awful performance (not quite the same as ACIV on the new consoles because it seems to run pretty damn good) but because I didn't have any other options it didn't bother me as much. Mind you I am still sitting in front of a TV on a comfy couch poang with a control pad so I may as well be on a console, albeit a super console

I'm the same with GTA V. I've got it on PS3 and I'll play it until the day it comes out on PC. After that I'll sell it or give it to someone.
I have this for PC, I must play it one day.
What a joke. A 7 year old game is all they can come up with?
It's bombing worse than Wii U?
ummm, that is certainly interesting!
Yeah, these certainly fill a gap in my collection of game types, Suburbia for some city building fare and Castles of Burgundy because I don't have any Stefan Feld games in my collection

All Blu Rays will be HALF PRICE at Big W on Saturday! Fuckers, why did they do it last Saturday when I was at a Big W!
Much much much better than AC3 was!
Best game in the series by far though. The texture work and atmosphere is unmatched. Was the first game that smacked you in the face and said THIS IS FUCKING NEXT FUCKING GENNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN! Loved the dank, pseudo-horror sections.
Did you see my post on it? Great game.
Does 'Xbox On' work yet?
Really? I found the 360 version to be pretty good. Frame rate was mostly solid for the entire games aside from a few instances when shit was going off tap.

Yeah TLoU seems to have a fairly low frame rate. I got used to it though. Just jarring coming from other games.

God damn future. And it's more likely to happen here than the States because commercial drone use is legal in Australia.
Edit:
I did not see it, I'll find it.
And yes it does. But only if you set your region to the States. Which makes no fucking sense. It works out of every box, but not on every location setting. What the actual shit? It's pretty god damn rad though. Region free is so good too.

ACIV is recommended if you liked ACII and Brotherhood. ACIII was , in my own personal opinion, totally awful, dull and just badly put together.
ACIV is my pick of the PS4 games I've played so far. Looks pretty good for a cross gen game.
The Amazon drone this is interesting. They have trialled things called Amazon lockers in places like a 7-11, very similar to AusPosts digital mailbox thing. My building collects all the parcels and packages for the tenants and they send you an email to come down to the office to collect it. With the the drones, I'm expecting a quiet tap tap tap on the window and see the drone hovering outside my third floor living room window, while it quietly prints out a 'sorry we missed you' card.

God damn, I want a drone to deliver me something. Anything will do!
I also want to shoot down a drone, and reprogram it to do my bidding.

Sweet man thanks. That does sounds mega fun. While I enjoyed 3, the main character (who's name I forget) was a dick, the forest was boring, and the cities were all pretty samey. I think the only reason I liked it was getting to be an assassin. I still don't understand the stupid present day stuff. Why does it exist? It's pointless. Just set the damn games in the past.
Apologies in advance for quoting from a week ago, but I was away at the beach and didn't internet much.
Man, I really want to be in a movie club. I have a group of friends who I watch terrible horror movies with, but I want to discuss movies with people in person.
I managed to get AJ to drop some profanity on me on twitter this week. Feel pretty good about myself right now.
Mario 3D world looks really good on the WiiU.
See you at Lansmash on Saturday !!
Tempted to get this on PC, though I think I will enjoy it more on PS4, when I eventually buy one.
Pretty good haul this time around.

It was a handy way to increase the length of games and give them a plot device to fall back on so they can pump out yearly sequels.

I believe you will if you want the extra content for MP and some tablet thing which is like that assassins side-game game from ACII. But you may be able to get Ubisoft customer service to issue you a new code.
If you dont want that, you can skip it altogether.
Can everyone please take some time out in their day to cast a vote.
at midnight tonight one of the following candidates will be banned from ausgaf chat.
Please vote for one of the following:
Lafiel. - [16:41] <LafielLIBRARY> AusGAF House Party (@ my house) [16:41] <LafielLIBRARY> Free booze, hentai and pods will be provided.
Cruncho - mute and silent person, no one has any clue who he/she is, could be a bot, could be a spy. we don't know and given that chat has personal info discussed often some of us want cruncho banned.

I'm not sure I'm on board with communal porn of any variety, let alone hentai.
Also chat is dumb.

Yeah I was drunk when I did that. You have 2 and your name is always taken. Use the top one

Still haven't bought anything this Steam sale. I'd be proud of myself if it didn't take a new console plus 4 games for me to consider exercising a bit of restraint.
