Someone ran into my avenger and hid in my bed as I was taking off because I forgot to close the back of my ship before taking off from the port. As I was preparing to go into hyperspeed mode to warp to the military station I see someone randomly go flying out the back of my ship into the abyss and I suddenly realized the guy in chat who had been bragging about hitching a ride was talking about me.

Haha, that's ridiculous! It's kind of bummer right now how you can't have two people in those ships (and the Aurora). Sometimes it works for a moment, but inevitably one or both people get glitched out of the ship. Walking around in a Constellation that is actively flying feels like fucking magic though.

this kind of got lost in here but dude what????

go play the marios!

SMB, SMB3, World, Wii, Wii U, Galaxy, 3d Land - any of these will do. But for goodness sake at least play SMB. It just must be done

Dark Souls II is waaay more player-friendly, prettier, and works better on PC than its predecessor. It would be the best choice to get into the series, I think.

I actually find it a better game than DSI (don't burn me)

I would say you should try out a Mario some day! Maybe Super Mario Galaxy, 3D Land, 3D World, SMB3, SMW.

If you were committed to the idea of playing both then I might say play Dark Souls 2 first just because it's worse than the first Dark Souls, it's still a great game but a number of it's flaws become more glaring when you've already played the first game. Don't forget that you'll want to get DSfix for DS1.

Has anyone done this and can confirm? I feel like going from 2 to 1 is a worse experience than the other way around, but I also like 2, so who knows?

I never had a Nintendo console; went from Master System to Mega Drive to the Playstations.
Never even touched a NES, SNES or a Gamecube.
I also did not play any Zelda, Kirby, Metroid, the original Mega Man series (played X6 only on PS1) or Donkey Kong :/

When I finish FFXIII I think I'll grab a Mario to see how it is

Guys, I'm thinking about quitting watching wrestling. Or at least mainstream WWE. At this point my three hours seems worth more to me every week.

Definitely quit. Watch the highlights that seem interesting on their YouTube channel. Can digest it all in 10-20 mins and then you can move on with your life.

So if somebody were to have missed... let's say the last 5-6 months of content, what would be a good place to start? :)

Mario Maker streams have been some of the best stuff. People are more mixed on MGScanlon V due to the nature of the game not really meshing with Drew and Dan's style, but its still fun stuff.

And of course, Demo Derby and all GBE streams like COOA, Playdates, and Vinnyvania.

And if you need any more, extra life has a ton of stuff. Its all worth watching, but my favorites were the GBWest and Austin streams.

I judge all my GOTY awards by whether or not Trails in the Sky SC is involved. So far, all outlets have failed. Will any pass? We shall see.
I kind of doubt it :( Maybe Jason can get it mentioned for Kotaku.

Started episode 1 today, didn't get to play a ton, but it seemed alright so far. I'm curious to see where it goes that has gotten everyone saying it's so great.

And having not played any Telltale stuff since Walking Dead season 2 episode 1 on 360 it's nice playing a Telltale game on a new console and it doesn't run and look like garbage.

Will I enjoy Tales from the Borderlands if I know only the bare minimum about that world and the characters involved? I've heard that it's accessible for non-Borderlands players but I wanna make sure I don't have to read up on anything before I begin.

Yeah. No prior knowledge is needed to really enjoy it. Its very much its own thing, though you might miss out on the occassional reference here or there.
