Forza Horizon 3 is a really good looking game.
More people are using the Vive than I thought. There are 300,000 owners of The Lab on Steam Spy.
That's pretty good for what essentially is experimental hardware.
Man I really don't know about Watch Dogs 2 - they appear to have solved the 'dull repetitive city' issue, but I'm not feeling the switch from 'dull, completely soulless protag/story' to 'lame internet humour protag/story'. I'll probably enjoy the open world aspect then hit yet another cringe cut scene and be 'nope'.
I just don't trust Ubisoft to put up anything even approaching a consistent and well thought out narrative.
I like where this is going. The whole HAXXOR setup is dumb and they embrace it.
Haha, Drew's look straight into the camera as Dan refers to Sweden, Finland and Denmark as "the dong countries".
The shame might partially be mine here, I think I might have misquoted Dan and replaced Norway with Denmark. (Maybe?) Let the record show that at least Dan wasn't wrong about the geography.Yeah, Denmark is no dong country! Norway is, come on Dan, don't you know you geography or your anatomy!

Denmark is our dong. It might not be much, but hey, it gets the job done.Sweden has no dongs.
Err no, Norway ruins the whole thing. That's why the map of EU has a dong in it.Yeah, Denmark is no dong country! Norway is, come on Dan, don't you know you geography or your anatomy!
That might be an outlier, every other VR exclusive game I looked up had miserable sales/owner numbersMore people are using the Vive than I thought. There are 300,000 owners of The Lab on Steam Spy.

Are there any specific Jar Times I should check out as a relatively new subscriber?
Isn't a i7 3770k bottlenecking a 1080?
Jeff couldn't achive a solid 60fps @1080p on medium settings.
I found the watchdogs 2 quick look a little unsettling, and someone who works for Google sent Jeff a question about it on his tumblr: http://jeff.zone/post/150849300101/long-time-listener-and-also-one-of-those-google
Its sort of like the weird situation where the guy was trying to reform as a criminal in GTA4, but did so by going around murdering hundreds of people.
In this, its a cringey story about the typical 'wake up sheeple' anonymous hackers taking on Facebook and Google, except instead of just DDOSing a website for ten minutes the guy suddenly pulls out an assault rifle and starts mowing down cops and civilians. Its sort of implying that whatever issues people might have around privacy and Facebook or the Google bus is worth resorting to blowing people up over.
Possibly if Ubisoft handle it right it could be ok, but I really can't see them doing that, and the hacker group comes across as exactly the kind of thing you see from 4chan and Lizard Squad and all that bullshit in real life.
Yeah, It's why I'm glad there's an option to go non-lethal but I'd wish that was the only way to play the game. It feels like the lethal route there because they didn't think the game would sell without it, it doesn't mesh with the story at all.
Here's hoping for story consequences if you go around shooting people.

ha
I'm sure there are others, but Dishonored is the only game coming to mind that really changes the world if you go on murder sprees. Most games just don't even acknowledge you did it.
Undertale.
ProbablyI bet there won't. Ubisoft is just absolutely tone deaf when it comes to stuff like this.
I'm not expecting a series of world state changes for murdering civilians but if there's some ending B where you'd get arrested the I'll take it.ha

Bayonetta 2: 2016's 2014 GOTY or just 2016's GOTY?
Shenmue: 2016's 2000 GOTY or just 2016's GOTY?but bayonetta 2 doesn't have references to outrun or space harrier
You would first have to erase any trace of any other game before you can give Shenmue that award.
Dishonored had consequences if you chose to go the lethal route, and it was annoying as hell because it meant that you couldn't go to town with the fun toys at your disposal without getting the bad ending. I'm all for posing difficult choices to the player, but there's a point at which it gets unnecessarily restrictive and undermines the rest of your game, and for me, that point is when you start applying the moral code to every random grunt you encounter.
Knowing Drew, it's probably for charity or something.
As someone who's studied some linguistics, with a non-trivial component of phonetics and phonology, Dan's reasoning from the spelling of the word to the pronounciation was painful to listen to.is everyone just trolling dan with this one syllable fire nonsense
EDIT: To be clear, "fire" can be pronounced with only one syllable.
