So I know there was the whole discussion about Brad's preference to the List View in Steam rather than the default list, so I decided to give it a try. What I discovered was that everyone is wrong and that Grid View is superior. I took a screenie to prove it.

Found a website that has custom grid view images so I replaced certain games images like GTA V and CS:GO because I didn't like their default ones.

Watching UPF. Ben Pack showing up with one of the greatest games of all time? Making a good first impression.

Watching UPF. Brad Shoemaker acting like he's too cool to know any Pokémon while obsessing over his virtual Dota doll collection. Making a terrible 1828th impression.

I finished 2nd in my last Battlegrounds match. I saw the other dude first, got three shots into him, but I choked and he got me.

A game has never made my heart pound like that.


On a side note, I live in Asia and love leaving voice chat on. It's either competing chants of "TAIWAN NUMBER ONE" and "MALAYSIA NUMBER ONE," or some dude letting some Chinese pop music filter through his open mic. I look forward to the waiting area.

man PUBG makes me want to upgrade my PC so I can see shit off in the distance. I feel like I get in a good groove with the game, but then unknown bullets from unknown positions take me out and im spinning around trying to figure out where they're coming from, but my draw distance is so bad I can barely make anything out.

I scrape by on minimum specs with this game. I need new stuff.

Really didn't like Ben on the Bombcast but I'm gradually warming up to him while watching UPF. He's just such a massive nerd.

There's also been a long running GAF thread where people provide some great custom images: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=477211

I'm back on Dota. Haven't won a game in ages. Feels bad.

New hire bringing in Pokémon talk. GB knows it needs to cater to 90's nostalgia. 10 years from now they'll hire someone that liked Minecraft.

Some peak Brad in this Prey QL. "I haven't found out how to increase my inventory size" *inventory literally says how to increase its size*

The game is rad. Totally an old-school immersive sim. If you like Deus Ex or the *Shock games you'll probably like it. Just don't play like Brad and run at everything using nothing but the wrench.

They should've hired me. I would've filled a niche they're missing. Could've told them all about Grandia 1, 2, 3 and Xtreme, and then I could've immediately filled them in on the intricacies of college football.

You made a big mistake, Gerstmann.

If they hired me, I would've made a long running The Sims series where the audience would vote which character would get murdered by being locked in a room with no doors.

Now that I think about it, that could've been real boring to watch.

UK/Non-US duders, anyone recommend a place for US Eshop credit? Puyo Puyo Tetris is £10 cheaper on the US store than the UK store but it won't accept my debit card.

Just started watching Bring your B-Game. Such a good idea.

Apparently Psi-Ops can be downloaded for free legally, it's ad supported or something. I need to give that a try again.

Brad is playing it wrong. Also immersive sims don't show well because the fun is finding your own approach to any combat situation, or into an area, and making it work. The glue gun especially lets you do some crazy traversal shit. If you like these kinds of games, you'll like Prey. If not, idk, try the demo I guess. But the QL is shit tier.

It seems really good. Between the Dishonored series and this, Arkane might be the best developer in the industry today?

They're definitely the new Looking Glass.

I'm not gonna tell you you are wrong, because I do like looking at my grid view the most.

There's also a thread on GAF for custom steam banners if you are into that stuff.

But the list view is the most practical

Is it like Deus Ex where you spend upgrade points to increase inventory size?

Giant Bomb |OT29| Eat Sleep and Lara Croft

They returned to Demo Derby with an amazing disc, great games. I remember playing Tomba 2 alot but I never finished it. That Tarzan game is good and made me remember Tarzan Untamed which is an average game that I also enjoyed.
