PC gamer salty entitlement. Delicious.

Would be nice to have Rapture on PC though.

What a surprise, a bunch of children ranting and raving about "moneyhats" and "selling out" while ignoring the fact that game developers are adults trying to feed themselves off of their jobs, and were unable to do so without Sony's help.


But hey, they should totally just starve and make games at a loss because they owe the PC gaming community right.

I'm a salty PC gamer. Consoles have been destroying my favourite platform for over a decade now *grumpy face*

I like my Vita though, so I can't stay mad at Sony.

 

[Planet_JASE]

Oh... maybe I should renew my PS+ now again. Does PS+ time stack? I can't remember. I already hopped in on the 90 days last time...

Yep, it certainly does.

Games that go into Sony Jail never seem to get out. Microsoft Jail seems easy to escape.

Maybe it's a sign that you picked the wrong platform? It's okay, we all make mistakes. It's just about learning from them.

Some people make more mistakes than others, though...

Spoiler

I like my Vita, too

It's hard to even begin to get mad at Sony. The two options were: game doesn't get made at all or game gets made for PS4 with help from Sony.


I really should get a Vita. I have too many cross-buy/play games.

 

[hamchan]

The trick I do to combat any gamer entitlement I may start feeling is to just buy all the platforms.

If PC gaming is wrong then I don't wanna be right!

 

[Deeku]

i need to renew my ps+ too, get that bonus 90 day with the year sub!

also dat ps+ update like seriously, i reckon if i'm not absolutely day 1 for a game, ps+ got me covered down the road!

 

[Planet_JASE]

If PC gaming is wrong then I don't wanna be right!

Excellent. We have reached an agreement, then!

Spoiler

I own all the platforms. Except WiiU. But that's barely a platform, as it is.

PS. Did you buy the EA Humble Bundle thingy? Spend over $5ish? Good news! You now own these for both Origin and Steam:

Of those two games, only C&C Music Factory: Red Alert is for the Steams. Populous is Oragin onlee.

 

[dishwasherlove]

I was kinda holding out for a Vita PSN+ bundle like in the US but then I remembered we live in Australia where logical things like that do not occur.

 

[codswallop]

Papa & Yo?

Indeed. Some Sony inmates do get cakes with files baked in, but Microsoft seems to just leave the keys under the front door mat.

 

[HolyCheck]

Does anyone know how to get a pokemon starter deck these days?

I can't work it out when browsing online, they seem to be themes or pokemon decks. not starter decks

I.E. I need a starter deck of cards, all the rule books for the game + anything required to play, health counters etc.

its difficult to work out

Well, we all know Microsoft's history regarding the security of their own products.

Theme decks usually come with a damage counters, a coin and a mat.

Friday, Hot Chocolate day. Maybe a kebab for lunch day too, I'm sure rezbit still really wants one.

Happy bday Death!

Thanks, I started my day with a hot chocolate and some ice cream for breakfast.

Happy birthday Death. I've got my body ready for a hot chocolate this morning.

Happy Birthiversary, Death!

Happy birthday death.

Congrats Death.

Thanks guys!

Death doesn't grow old, Death matures. Happy birthday.

True that. Thanks.

Damnit, I was going to do that

Haha, prefect one Gazunta. Shane, you're too old and too slow.

So my PS3 version of SR4 has been dispatched from OGS, guess I'm sticking with that instead of a PC version. :/

Yeah I received shipping confirmation yesterday, hopefully it will arrive by end of this month.

I like my Vita though, so I can't stay mad at Sony.

Anyone playing the Killzone Mercenary public beta on vita? It's pretty good.

Ah! Splendid. The sites I was looking at never really went into "contents" details. Hard towork out

 

[mandiller]

Bottom line is that SSM is developing Rapture with TCR and it might not exist if Sony didn't agree to fund it.

Thread was so delicious. Made up for lack of Xbot meltdowns.

Leaving PS Plus this month:
28th August: Need for Speed Most Wanted
28th August: ICO and Shadow of the Colossus HD Collection
28th August: Demon’s Souls
28th August: LEGO Lord of the Rings
28th August: When Vikings Attack

Entering PS Plus this month:
28th August: Assassin’s Creed 3
28th August: The Jak and Daxter Trilogy
28th August: Stealth Inc: A Clone In The Dark
28th August: Urban Trial Freestyle
28th August: New Little King’s Story

Fantastic, assuming Stealth Inc and Jak & Daxter are also free on Vita.

 

[Planet_JASE]

Crossbuy: Jak & Daxter is a 'no'. Stealth is a 'yes', I think. Urban Trials is a 'don't know'.

Just went for early voting because I realized I couldn't be arsed waiting in big lines on Election Day.

yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep. I might go if those rumours about a Japan stage end up being true (the sumo theme seems to indicate it might?), but otherwise I'll probably just go to the Avenged Sevenfold sidewave. Nothing there worth paying $200 to see as yet.

Our 3D modellers for this space battle game seem to have realised we don't actually check their work.

Because I just noticed our missile model... (... nsfw?)

Anyone find the hidden dongs in Viva Piñata Party Animals yet?

 

[teekun]

Holy shit, Assassins Creed 3 on PS+ already? Well, time to see now bad it really is, and figure out if I should be at all excited for 4.

 

[reptilescorpio]

lol Yosp is the coolest.

I'm a salty PC gamer. Consoles have been destroying my favourite platform for over a decade now *grumpy face*

Consoles the last 4 or so years have been sending people flocking back to PC's which is great! The great XBLA lottery scheme certainly helped the indie push on PC with the stupid decision making by MS over release dates, set prices and patch fees.

* I take no responsibility on the very very slim chance that Steam stops finding VPNs acceptable and bans everyone who uses them or something

There was a sticky thread in the Steam forum about using VPN but they would be setting a new precedent to ban your account after allowing it for the last few years.

Papa & Yo?

Oh yeah that just came out, forgot all about that! Another Pub Fund game I think.

I expect that's where EatChildren has disappeared to.

Hint: look at rocks in Legend of Spyro: A New Beginning.

 

[codswallop]

Thanks, I started my day with a hot chocolate and some ice cream for breakfast.

Planning on having my first beer float tonight. It'll be vanilla ice cream in a chocolate milk stout.

Next step after that is mulled (or at least warmed) beer. Don't have a poker or an open fire to try that method of heating beer, unfortunately.

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

Spare C&C 3 steam key if anyone wants it.

Y'know, 1.5 or so years after finishing Storm of Swords, I decided to finally pick up Feast for Crows. I kinda like it so far. Even if the book is a bit slow, it's nice to get back into that universe again.

Feast for Crows at times is painfully slow. Book 4 and 5 have the same timeline but each book focuses on different characters. Dance with Dragons is also slow to begin with, but picks up around halfway.

Beer and milk? I've never tasted this concoction. Where might I try one?

NOPE!


Looking through the rest of the list, also nope!

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

Thanks Jintor.

I'm a sucker for all things C&C and Red Alert! Yes please?

 

[Jables Swan]

I feel really old when I look at festival line ups like that and nothing there interests me.

Also, the Gaf meltdown over Affleck as the new Batman is glorious.

 

[Gazunta]

Wait until you get so old that you don't even recognise the names of any of the bands!

Spoiler

apparently

Affleck as Batman makes me so happy.

Need Affleck to kick Synder out of directing chair too though.

Er, I'm gonna assume that you didn't see KORN

The 90's are back.

It's soundwave, it's a festival for genres and bands that no one's cared about since the 90's.

It didn't used to be.

Wow, typing that out it seems really incorrect, but when I say it sounds like fine English.

Edit: Also, fuck this civil war quest line in Skyrim, the thing is utterly busted. I have just spent 3 hours trying all the various fixes and it still won't work.
