Ah, Gotcha. I was really hoping for something I could play on my couch, but I'll take any new Civ I can get.

Ground Zeroes is fun. There are more worthy things you can "avoid on principle". Like wsoxfans posts, the drunk losers at Penn Station after a Ranger game, or overpriced blended Scotch.

Its a full mission and a bunch of side missions. Its not like a 15 minute demo or Marvel Pinball. Buy it and have fun. You spend 15 bucks on lunch and that's over in 20 minutes. Spend 30 on a fun game you can bleed 4+ good fun hours out of.

Well I mean. I guess that's the thing, if I'm paying half the money of a regular game, I expect atleast half a game(unless The Phantom Pain turns out to be a really short game, that would be a problem).

Idk, I can see your point, but there's not enough content in it for me to spend $35 on.

It's a double-edged sword for me. I absolutely love MG (Still getting used to Sutherland...) so I bought the PS3 version on the first day, damn well knowing what it was. Glorified demo and all, it's still a very solid and exceptional game for what is there. Since I was able to finally find a PS4 for sale, I bought that version after and have really enjoyed the upgrade.

If you liked and enjoyed Peace Walker, this will be an epilogue to that game and a prologue to the TPP. The potential seen in GZ has me utterly salivating at how good TPP could be. This is coming from someone who doesn't really play many games anymore, but MG still makes me excited like a kid again whenever a new release hits. The open-world concept makes sense considering the direction the series has been heading for over the years. I'm curious what bonuses will be for TPP upon detecting GZ save data. I hope Kojima at least has some nice rewards for fans who took the bite of his appetizer game.

There are a nice handful of missions to do in addition to the main one, plenty of unlockables and the MGS throwback mission is a nice little nod to Metal Gear Solid. (Again though... Sutherland is going to take some time to adjust to. Replacing Hayter is the one thing I've been really unhappy with that Kojima has done, but oh well, it's done.) The games themselves will still continue to be some of my favourites.

I've been getting my money's worth on it, but I understand that it's not the same for everyone else. I'm sure it will come down in price eventually to make it more justified for other people to purchase eventually.

Huh... Season's over I guess for the Jets... Good to see them end on a nice note with wins over Boston and Calgary. Guess I'll head over to the Offseason thread with the rest of the Leafs fans. =/

The important thing is that McDonagh is apparently back to 100%.

Seriously dodged a bullet there.

I wonder when the last time Marty St. Louis was a healthy scratch was.

Granberg actually making his debut tonight? Let's try this again.

EDIT: Victor Hedman has 55 points? Dat bust.

I'd probably wait a bit longer for Ground Zeroes if you've waited this long already. I can't see the $30 price lasting much longer given the digital version is already available for 20.

Isn't that simply just the worst? Oh hey, you endangered peoples lives but it's not as dangerous as you endangering just your own through potential circumstances.

If I was fucked up and making ungodly decisions, I'd trade my own life for a car of sober people in a second.

What happened to Varlarmov? Giguere and Berra? Never heard of Berra, but I know his sv pct of .600 in the game isn't good
Click to expand...

Giggy was good at the start, but sucked eventually after teams figured out his lateral movement weakness. Berra was this scrub who was the Flames starter for after Kipper kicked the bucket. He showcased and became a worthwhile trade at the deadline.

Lucky for you, new Nvidia GPUs (GTX 750) are cheap and require a whole lot less power than the 600 models. I got a GTX 750 Ti recently and it's the best thing I've ever done to my PC.

I can understand it better for cocaine than something like marijuana, at least. Buying cocaine basically means financially supporting violent international cartels. I don't think very many people are growing and processing their own coca trees at home.


Also, lol Flyers, what are you doing? /late
