Wait why are people in the OT surprised that the game is 60fps. I thought it was well known it was going to be 60fps ever since Platinum got it. It's why the game doesn't have the greatest graphics.
 
Yeah it was always planned to hang around 60fps. People have been saying that since Platinum resuscitated the project.

Buying Metal Gear Rising day-one. Will probably be the last game I buy in a while too. Can't wait.
 
I cannot fully express how much I hate "Revengence." Just say "Vengence." It sounds dumb Plantinum. 60FPS can't make up for you making up idiotic words

Naw it's a awesome title; and gels perfectly with Platinum games goofy aethestics with all their titles.

Probably your loss, but I'll hedge my bets anyway

I'm sure others will love it, but its not for me. Boss fights are particularly evil. Vanquish I love, this I do not.

It does look pretty spiffy I thought.

My copy of Ninja Gaiden 3: Not That Bad This Time, We Promise! Edition arrived today and is currently downloading the extra breasts. We can be Wii U update brothers.

If you find the dlc for non-eco cases, let me know. My zombi u box is missing all its plastic.

Surprised they had any in stock.

I was going to buy a PC but they had none in stock, so my second choice was a Wii U.

This is the scariest thing ever. Its like the article comments on News Ltd websites became an incorporated, embodied blob of stupid.

Holy shit, its this cunt:

LEIGH SALES, PRESENTER: A new political party has set its sights on this year's federal election and its policies are turning heads.

The Rise Up Australia Party is the brainchild of Christian preacher Daniel Nalliah.

He's anti-Islamic, claims to have raised people from the dead and once blamed the Black Saturday bushfires on Victoria's abortion laws.


Today he launched his new party with help from renowned climate change sceptic Lord Monckton.

Although I like their logo, it seems to suggest a Tasmanian takeover of the mainland. Queensland in particular.

Purely as an experiment, I would dearly love to see some everyday muslim Australians stand for election against the rise up party. Just to get more votes than these bigots. Or, the Australian Sex Party. Preferably with as many candidates who are either homosexual, former porn stars, family planning clinic doctors, atheists (or all of the above). I'd vote for them
(again)

Seriously. This makes me almost wish we could just have the stupidity of Family First and One Nation. This lot seem far, far worse - and that's saying something.

Also, while I'm posting waiting for the Wii Pad to charge, HOLY SHIT THIS CONSOLE IS TINY.

It's barely any bigger than a Wii, and it is far less obvious since it's black making it hard to see it's size in the tv cabinet.
 
Massive delays on South Morang line. Delayed 5:53 train, then cancelled, then its suddenly the 6:17 then its suddenly the 6:07. Didn't leave until just now anyway. Well done Metro.

I thought you weren't onboard with it? Did you get it for a good price?

Not as good a price as I was hoping, but choice is limited locally. :/

Got the games for $68 each though which is not too shabby at all.

I think I was pushed over the edge by playing Pikmin 1 and 2, and the new trailer for Lego City. I'm obviously finding more enjoyment in recent years out of nintendo first party than most of what I expect AAAA gaming to be like on PS4/XBox 3, so I figure I'll bite the bullet and deal with the inevitable disappointment when I realise I won't be playing Metal Gear Solid 5 and Beyond Good and Evil 2. I do expect to keep my PS3 (bluray player, psn+ freebies) until they give up the ghost, and I also expect a lot of cross-gen titles for the next three years if the games industry is as doomed as it seems.

At the end of the day though, my 5 favourite games this gen were SMG, SMG2, Skyward Sword, Portal and Pixeljunk Monsters. 3/5 is enough to sway me, and Q Games do put games on Nintendo systems from time to time.
 
A lovely new political party.
http://riseupaustraliaparty.com/ What a cool website they have!

I'm kind of curious about that picture actually, since the site says that they are anti-multicultural.

People who practice same-sex sex have exactly the same equality to marriage as any one else under the law. They are free to marry someone of the opposite sex, just the same as people who have sex with the opposite sex.

We wish to make abortion history by providing those social conditions and factual educational information that support women in their lives so they are not forced into situations where they feel there is no option but to have an abortion.
I like how 'no abortions' now means that women get a choice. Thanks Rise up Australia!

I like how they make it out to be a matter of simplicity. Because women I know are all "Oh yeah, I'm like, going to the shops today, might grab some new shoes, get some coffee, have an abortion, then I might go get my nails done".

It's not a procedure I can imagine anyone enjoying having it done, or doing it because they are careless with contraception. It's simply because these precautions fail and they aren't in a position to raise a child. Making that decision is far better than raising a child in a situation where they are neither wanted nor able to be supported to the best of the parents' ability.

I think the anti-abortion types seem to think sexuality should be locked away until wedding night, and only then for procreation. Newsflash: it hasn't been like that for 99% of human existence.

Huh, so it is possible for your virginity to grow back.
I don't know why, but that made me piss myself.

I'm still just running exes, albeit through different interfaces.
Or in the case of Colonial Marines, you're still looking for the exes!

Each generation, internet gamers increase the intensity of their predictions, only to guarantee that they'll be more and more disappointed when every feature they've invented in their heads isn't included in the console they decide to back. It's mental. It's like a 12 month cycle of prep work for telling everyone how shitty their new favourite thing is.
PGR5 on launch. That's all I predict. That, and I predict I'll be pretty fucking happy about it.

I'm probably buying a Friday ticket when I get paid so I can see the opening keynote.
Totes dressing up as one of the characters from Maniac Mansion/DotT. Probably Hoagie.

PC does what Nintendon't
It actually does what Nintendoes as well. In fact, it does what Nintendoes *better* than Nintendoes.

It'd want to have some pretty fucking spectacular modes to make up for disinterested xenomorphs.
He/she/it shuffled around EXACTLY how I imagine Holy would in his new pyjamas after a good night's sleep.

I've really got to try that demo sometime
What's that from? And why is that important... I thought it was always 60fps? Or is the demo not 60 or something?

That did make me laugh. But I don't think I'll get another Team Ninja game until Ninja Gaiden X: Itagaki's Game Bombed So He Came Back to Team Ninja and Made This One Good

The Rise Up Australia Party sounds like some kind of orgy for geriatrics where they hand out bucketloads of Viagra.



So guys, is the MGR demo on both PS3 and 360? Which one is better? Will it come to PC and shit all over it's console counterparts by having 20000fps and shitty multi-GPU support?
 

Yagharek

MGR demo is on PSN (maybe + exclusive, dunno) but all reports are that it is on par with or better on PS3 due to lack of video compression. Otherwise both versions are apparently identical (like Vanquish was, not like Bayonetta).

What do you prefer more? One controller over the other, or uncompressed cutscenes?

Haha, I missed this.

b-b-but Judeo-Christian values! The admin also seems to think that 70% of rape victims want to keep the resulting babies, so obviously rape victims shouldn't be exempt from this abortion ban! There was also a great comment in which someone pointed out that Australia had a secular government, to which the admin responded "Too True – exactly why any imposition of Sharia Law should be opposed". Amazing.

This is something my mother doesn't seem to get whenever we argue about abortion. No reasonable moral person or even most people take the whole issue of "abortion" lightly, in fact it's due to those reasons that a woman should always have a "choice" because the complexity and delicacy of such a situation calls to have all the options available to any woman who is unlucky to find herself in such a situation, so in turn she is able to make the best "possible" choice for her own personal well-being.

I'm not seeing anything wildly different in the misogyny that occurs in some Islamic cultures compared to the misogyny that is tenuously justified by "judeo christian values". In both cases, women are treated as second class citizens, and are left to bear the consequences of other people's bad choices.

I mean, let's be serious here for a minute. In cases of unplanned pregnancy, it's down to recklessness on the part of the two people doing the tango. You should be using protection, but if you're riding bareback, it's pretty easy to tell when the horse is about to bolt, so to speak.

In cases of rape leading to pregnancy, I could not imagine anything more sadistic than putting the victim through nine months of unwanted and unsolicited stress, constant reminders, and inevitable pain of childbirth. It really should be a case of a) get the dna evidence, b) get the emergency contraception ASAP, and c) get them to trauma counselling just as fast.

lol good luck with that!

Didn't some of Bizarre wind up in a new studio working on xbox stuff, and some others wind up at Evolution along with ex Studio Liverpool people on a PS4 product?

As in, Wipeout x PGR talent.

That would/could be something special, almost like StarFox x Metroid.

The dude was on TV this morning, talked about how they welcome people of different ethnicities integrating into Australian culture and the Australian (read: Judeo-Christian) way of life.

That would be the best thing, yeah. There would still be cases were abortion for rape would be needed (women being too afraid to seek help in time for the morning after pill to work, for example). Some people also consider that a form of abortion too, which complicates things even more.

Ugh. I really don't think they understand how absurd asking anyone who comes here to "leave your culture (and probably language) at the door" is. The worst part is when people harass tourists over it.

KAP wins the election in Coalition with the Rise Up Australia Party, One Nation Party and Family First Party.

"It's the principle of it" sounds like a line from The Castle.

Their website is so bad that you can get into it and dig up unused banner attempts.

The party is about as confusing as the web design.
Once they realised them blacks wasn't true blue Aussies, they booted 'em.

Of course. Not every situation would lend itself to getting to a hospital/police station right away. Some people might not be able to do anything about it for days or weeks.
