No seriously don't.

Man does Ground Zeroes look insane! Just those shadows waving on Snake, and that lighting, as well as from far away. I gotta test if there's still any flickering. Apparently I was only playing on High these past days, so turned it up to max and with the mod there's clearly a difference.

And that control and shooting feels so tight and satisfactory! There's nothing more satisfying than shooting a guard in the head with one shot, or just sneaking my way past everyone feeling the tension. I'm loving this.

PS: A little off-topic but I see my Norton is defragmentizing my hard drives, so I looked it up and it'll help with performance, but should I be afraid of losing any of my data?

Am I correct that Enhanced Steam is now Chrome only, although the homepage displays Firefox and Opera support?

Looks like the standalone version was also discontinued. (Haven't been using ES for ages).

ES 7.3 still works and jshackles even got it certified so you can continue using it. No new features though for the time being.

so nuuvem no longer selling ff games? :( oh well

Where did you read that? If anything it looks like they're going to be selling more FF games 'worldwide' as they all show up when I search for FF now instead of just FF8 (I'm in UK).

All say keys temporarily exhausted though (and I'm still waiting for my FF8 key from that sale the other day).

Ugh, now I am having trouble with DS4Windows for Windows 10. I followed the official guide:

Download zip
Extract the 2 programs (DS4Windows and DS4Updater) in the zip wherever you please (My Docs, Program Files, etc.)
Launch DS4Windows
If not in Program Files, choose where you want to save profiles
A windows will pop up showing how to install the driver, if not, go to settings and click "Controller/Driver Setup"
If you have used SCP's tool in the past, you may need to uninstall the drivers to use the DS4 with bluetooth
Connect the DS4 via a micro usb or through bluetooth (DS4 Device name: "Wireless Controller") may need to enter pair code: 0000)
All should be good to go once you connect the controller.

I have installed the driver, and my Dual Shock 4 is currently connected to my desktop through a USB cable, but the software won't recognize my controller. :(

Great premise for a game, very unique, very original, very smartly programmed (try to break the chatbot and you'll realize how it was implemented--incredibly smart), great themes. Couldn't get to sleep last night after playing it because my wife and I kept talking about it. Very very cool.

Now my Dual Shock 4 seems to be connected through Bluetooth but the DS4Windows software don't recognize it.

[edit]
It should work now! I just don't understand why the lightbar is blinking blue and red.

I'm really curious about it. Too bad I lost my job recently and am broke atm. ._.

Yessss, I knew you'd dig it. Should check out the spoiler thread for the in-depth debates about what may or may not have happened. Really impressive how much it got everyone thinking, trying to pull apart the evidence to get to the "one truth".

Ground Zeroes is great to play with the Dual Shock 4, but I might go with keyboard/mouse in The Phantom Pain. It does seem, that I need a stronger Bluetooth 4.0 dongle though, to have a solid connection to my controller.

Do you guys have any suggestion?

Daaamn. Someone is so lucky right now :O

I really want that poster as a desktop wallpaper. Looks so good.
I'm calling fake.
Nah. The box is real, but he conveniently put stuff on the banner at the top. It's just a pre-order box. You can pre-order games in retail Germany and get an empty box until the real deal arrives, sometimes it has a code for the pre-order bonus or even something physical like a map or a poster. People got fooled. One of the links even showed it:

sell cards -> get game for free. card money can't be used to pay for rent so there's no worry there :)

After I finished it and watched all the videos chronologically and translated the
tap code
stuff and talked with my wife, I read the thread. I feel quite strongly that (SPOILERS FOR HER STORY: ENTIRE GAME LAID OUT BARE. ABSOLUTELY DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVEN'T PLAYED) SmiteOfHand (SPOILERS FOR HER STORY: ENTIRE GAME LAID OUT BARE. ABSOLUTELY DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVEN'T PLAYED) got it dead right.

Talked about it a bit with XANDER CAGE as well. Again, major spoiler discussion, entire premise of Her Story discussed, everything spoiled. The game is basically an interactive mystery, if you read this you might as well not play the game. Don't read it if you haven't played it:

The red pre-order banner doesn't seem to be on the photo L.O.R.D. posted -- you can see where it should just be a red stripe, but it doesn't appear to be there.

Of course it's there. Press your eyes together, you can see the dark orange that isn't part of the actual MGSV cover. It's even more visible on his second picture.

I don't have enough cards. :(

Luckily I get money from my school relatively soon so I'll probably just use that lol.

I'm gonna check out those links you posted once I've played it.
