Dat last week at work feel. Congrats man!

Doing nothing on your last week is expected. Make the most of it!

What did everyone get up to on the weekend? I make £40 out of a £5 at the casino. STARTED FROM THE BOTTOM NOW WE'RE HERE.

Didn't end up seeing Princes Kaguya unfortunately though I did finally manage to play that P.T demo on the PS4 and successfully managed to shit my pants and nearly break a PS4 controller by throwing it at a mate of mine.

I do not handle jumpy/scary games well, I still haven't completed Resi 4 because I can't do it by myself..... life is hard.

I went to see Kaguya, it was incredible but by the end I was like

But it ended pretty late so it was like town transformed into a bad Left 4 Dead level while I was in there.

Feel like dogshit today. Fun!

Man, you're even more obsessed with The Simpsons than I pretend to be about Harley Wellington.

Huh?

Oh.

Huh?

(It's a standalone product acting as a teaser right? I don't get it.)

Yea, but what it's teasing probably isn't going to happen anymore with the Kojima split.

i mean in the sense that the game is probably cancelled.

Mates made me play it just so they can see my reaction. As I said I don't do well with games like that

Example:
They made me play Outlast in a dark room with giant speakers either side of my head. My phone vibrated on the desk in the middle of my play through and I jumped hard etc etc

Still though just because the project may be cancelled is that reason not to give it a go?

So?

That's like saying you should ignore a great EP because the band split up.

pt isn't a great EP though, it's a walking jumpscare simulator. It's more like saying you should ignore a CD filled with static noise with obscured voice clips in it which after about 30mins ends with "we're making a new album, please buy it" and then then split up.

Sounds like sploatee and Screaming Meat's more "leftfield" music recommendations. :p

Also, you appear to be particularly jaded and cynical about games in my experience, I think I'll try it for myself and make up my own mind.

what this guy said!

Yeah but still in your example, because it is so weird you'd probably still tell people about it and they will listen to bit's of it.

pt is just a free, quick shock game that only (I imagine) has any impact when played for the first time. I still think that's still more than enough reason just to download it, play it and show other people regardless of whether the project is cancelled or not.

It's the next gen equivalent of telling your mates to complete that maze game on that website where the ring lady jumps out at you.

Hey, I didn't say not to play it! I can just understand not really bothering with something that was created to promote something that'll now likely never happen (it might still, though tbf).

You're not wrong mind, especially with horror games (pt included), there seems to have been this big resurgence of them which on paper seems really good, but it just seems to me now that modern horror games are made for obnoxious youtube videos that idiots facecam. (edit: which I guess is pretty ironic since I watched PT on a youtube video with facecam)

With PT particularly I was concerned about its reliance on jump scares which is something Silent Hill never really did. Some honestly unnerving stuff though, and it's not like that would even transfer into whatever the full game would have been.

tbh games are filth. no one was there to tell compile heart to stop making games and now we're in the era of a million neptunia games and weird wizardry clones with names like "i can't believe my sister is an idol so i fucked her in a dungeon"

that sounds nice. Yeah I am indeed making the most of things.

Working from home is the best when I just have documents to write no hassles then!

Sounds cool grats on the win.

Well this weekend us lot went out on Saturday and Sunday was on the sofa with a hangover playing games and watching trailer park boys whilst feasting on left over pizza.

I just want to say domino's delivering till 2am is a bloody awesome thing!

Nice! good weekend then, yeah domino's has been a life saver time and time again. If only subway delivered then you could have done THIS

Good morning all.

Morning ye's.

Nice to see you all (ish) on Saturday. Kind of wish we'd come a bit earlier to catch up properly, but it's a good job we left seeing as I was way more drunk than I thought and went into stereotypical drunk girl crying mode and E's legs nearly fell off. Dark Souls.

Should've eaten something before we joined you but I thought 'nah, I'll be fine. Get doubles woo!' Souls.

Hopefully I didn't act like too much of a numpty. The coach ride home was agony but we went to Richmond Tea Rooms on the way back so that was nice. Dark Souls.

NEXT MEET IN MANCHESTER PLEASE LONDON IS TOO INTENSE AND SCARY THANKS AND CAN WE GO SOMEWHERE A BIT MORE GAY BECAUSE I THINK IM HETEROPHOBIC SORRY BUT YOU BREEDERS FREAK ME OUT WITH YOUR HETERO STUFF DONT MIND YOU DOING IT IN PRIVATE BUT IN PUBLIC ITS JUST A BIT UNNATURAL THANKS

Anyway, what's new? Souls.

I'm gonna go for a walk and get another set of ear piercings seeing as I'll never be able to get my nose pierced. Also (just to say) Dark Souls Dark Souls Dark Dark Souls Souls Souls. Souls.

Actually, and Prince Prince. Prince Prince. Prince Souls. Dark Prince. Souls Souls Souls.

There. If I don't post for the rest of the week then you've hopefully got enough there to randomly insert it into otherwise productive conversations. Dark Souls.

The sneaky KFC was a saviour for sure.

After discussing my backlog woes with you guys I ordered 2 more 3ds games yesterday. The struggle continues...

Maturity, bitches.
That's because it was in Camden i.e. hell on Earth. Should have gone somewhere more civilised like Croydon.
 
I watched all of Wrestlemania, live. There's a hole in my soul where regret usually lies, but now it's just irritatingly empty.

(It was fun)

Dark Souls? More like arse holes.

Bloodborne is killing me. I started a new game because #YOLO and I can't remember how I killed the Hooded Bruiser in Central Yarnham, and it's really beginning to piss me off.

If I can persuade y'all to come to Manchester (it's not that far and it's cheap! Come ooonnnnnnn) we can go to tea rooms and drink gin from teacups and all of that cheesy stuff.

weird how little dark souls has been mentioned recently, huh.

I know, right? Bloody turned up on Sat and the Southeners thoight I was obsessed with it or something. Bizarre.

Well those lobe piercings were easy. MORE

make sure you stock up on gold rings before fighting any boss as you can always collect them after they scatter should you get hit.


more importantly i bought the wrong flavour of chewing gum.
 
It was good to see you again sploat even if it was seemingly only for five minutes. Enough time for us to collectively boo the hobbit films and for you to allege that I was the kind of person who eats After Eights, which I took as a massive compliment. At least that's what I remember.

I'd forgotten that! I was bladdered daps. Next time we come for the whole meet, pace ourselves and then go home at 11 like the aged crones we are. Anyway, hope you had a good time.

No Bloodbornes in Manchester. Nothing. Not even normal editions. Not in Game, not in HMV.

HAHA, Well it wasn't that bad I like The Worlds End, HELL I met a girl who in 2015 has gout, that's mighty impressive if you ask me!

It's good, but at the same time when I am at home and meant to be working yet cannot stop playing games it's reallly hard to stay focused!

Yeah that just looks like too many carbs for me...

Press r1 several times in combination with circle.

haaaaaa maybe.

Yeah pacing is key, I certainly did manage it, by the end of the cocktail bar I was feeling the effects though...

WOW what a ghetto town, make a US account and buy digital only cost me 37 quid doing it that way!

I just got into the office for the afternoon, I really should have just stayed at home, it's dead in the office and I just wish to continue working on documents in peace.

Not really, but most of the wrestlers at Wrestlemania should've gone into retire-MINT long ago.

Eh, there was quite a few newer wrestlers in there and they've given the title to one of them that is actually good instead of the guy with the charisma of a soggy piece of toast.

unless that was just an excuse to post a terrible pun in which case I've been tricked!

You have indeed been tricked. I don't know anything about wrestling any more, I am a dissapoint-mint.

OK I'm done now
 
Mint puns, that's refreshing.

I think you caught me after my 6th cocktail so I was ever so slightly gone myself. Chatting with you was a mini highlight along with biting mikes thumb and beating jed in an arm wrestle. I did enjoy the "go, be young" parting comment too. In my head I was like "I will sensei! For you!" Then danced away to cheesy music and fell asleep in a nightclub.
