I'm waiting for Free Lives to run out of ideas and start putting the likes of Bro Derek and Little Bro Peep in Broforce before I pick it up again. Great game though.
 
Looks like MGSV is a bigger game than I thought.
I was expecting around 30 hours for main story + the most relevant side stuff and some messing around in motherbase, but it looks like we're looking at 60 hours.

I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed, with 2 Tits games, Fallout 4, Yakuza 5, XCom 2, Persona 5 and the first TW3 expansion all coming this year...
I'll have to sacrifice Fallout and Xcom, I can't afford all these games anyway and I really want to support the localization efforts of Tits and Yakuza.
P5 and TW3 expansion are an absolute day 1, no matter what.

Even then I'm probably looking at over 300 hours here, TW3 took me exactly 3 months with a little over 80 hours on the clock.
Only other game I played during that time (not counting handhelds) was TEW.
I guess I'll be set for a year, at least.

I support the localization of Tits as well.

I need to buy Pillars of Eternity, people recommended it to me but bought Dishonored cause brother said to play that first. Now that I've finished it..
Where can I get Pillars for cheap?

DiRT Rally World RX Multiplayer Update

Woa! It’s time for DiRT Rally’s v.0.7 update already, which this month introduces online competitive play to DiRT Rally. That’s right, you’ll now be able to head online and challenge your friends in officially licensed FIA World Rallycross events.

DS3_Lydden_Wet_1_A.jpg


But wait there’s more! We’ve also added a stack of new features and changes including:
  • A new World RX track - Hell, Norway
  • New Rallycross drivers including, Liam Doran and Petter Solberg
  • Wet weather for all Rallycross tracks
  • Three new cars: DS3, MINI Countryman Rallycross and Subaru WRX STI
  • Brand new Wager Daily Event
  • Some new advanced gamepad options
  • Added a “Very Early” option for your Co-Driver calls
  • A frankly amazing set of Hints and Tips for you to read during loading screens
  • Removed the additional time penalty when the Off Track Reset Countdown expires and upped the limit on the timer
  • We’ll now show you your 'Fastest lap' onscreen for an entire Rallycross Event
  • Clutch Override which will give you the ability to use your clutch to override the automatic gearbox clutch


Highway to Hell - World RX Update 2 - DiRT Rally


And that’s not all! On top of all that goodness above we’ve also made the following additions and changes to DiRT Rally.
  • *bleep bloop* new achievements
  • Added a toggle for ‘Clutch Override’, which allows you to override the automatic clutch (allowing for clutch kicking)
  • ‘Advanced gamepad options’ are now available for joysticks... Yup somebody out there is playing DiRT Rally with a joystick
  • Message added indicating if you’ve missed the entrance or exit of the joker lap.
  • Optimised all routes for Lydden Hill so it chugs less
  • Graphical Improvements to all stages on the Holjes Circuit as well as the routes for Powys, Wales and Pikes Peak
  • Those excessive gravel surface sounds have been toned down – which should also help with stuttering audio
  • Fixed an issue where the Community delta time splits were being incorrectly shown in the Pant Mawr stage from Wales
  • Light pods no longer show on day routes when using the bonnet / interior cameras on certain vehicles
  • Direct Input slider axis enumeration has been fixed which is a fancy way of saying this should solve issues with pedal bindings, most frequently the clutch
  • Rallycross friend leaderboards now only show the players fastest lap time
  • Abandoning a Rallycross Daily Event now uploads the stage maximum, rather than the time the game was paused... oops
  • Jump starting certain Rallycross tracks no longer results in the players lap counter refusing to increment when passing the start/finish line
  • Fix for the Founder liveries disappearing after the player resets their profile
  • Community delta times are now displayed correctly in the standings before the event begins
  • The Community delta times that were invalid on some tracks have now been reset
  • Crossing a reset line will now always result in you receiving a penalty
  • The Rallycross AI will now find the correct gear at the start of the race and not comically reverse
  • Joker laps will now register even when exiting the joker sector backwards... Because sometimes it’s fun to show off
  • The AI will now take the Joker lap in a Rallycross event less than 4 laps
  • The AI should no longer accidently take a Joker lap when switching paths after losing control.
  • Did you ever see that bug where the Rallycross AI would drive into a barrier, reverse, then drive into again? It was pretty funny but we thought we better fix it
  • Used your data to improve our AI across all Rallycross routes. They’ll now put up much more of a challenge

Just like every time we release an update there are a few things which we know won’t be perfect, don’t forget that DiRT Rally is in Early Access still and we need you to help us polish it.

We’re confident that everything should run smoothly and thank you to all our players who have been helping us test this latest update. So if you spot something that isn’t quite right or working as you expect be sure to swing by either the Codemasters Forums or Steam Forums to let us know.

As ever thank you for your support so far, we know we say this a lot but we really are grateful of all the feedback to date.

Next month we head to Finland for the fastest and most exciting update yet.

Don’t Cut. Be Brave.

Well, yeah, but GZ is a lot more recent so I thought I'd point that out.
Like I said in my edit, people are also complaining about major TPP spoilers.

Yeah it's definitely a bit spoilery but context is key and I don't have a clue what that scene might imply. And none of yose try to point out to me what it might mean either!!! I'm sticking my fingers in my ears now until the 1st. Lalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalala.....

Ooooohhhh seems keys are up on the backer portal those who backed that tier or prepurchased.

Edit: And the sub says it's a swanky Kickstarter Edition too!
I doubt there's anything extra for this to be honest

Crap, I just got to work and now I already want to be home =(
 
Stop saying "*** is a spoiler"

Exactly. Telling me something is a spoiler is worse than just ignoring it. I have no context for this trailer, so nothing is a spoiler yetttttt.
 
Rex had a penis gun as well.

and Jehuty had a penis cockpit as did other mechs from ZOE


Basically mechs with penis stuff going on is nothing new for Kojima & co.
Metal Gear Zeke also has a penis flamethrower.

Kojima has a hard on for penis weaponry

as an aside, i think ill finally play through the Swapper. After playing through Halo 1 and 2 on Heroic, i'm pretty burned out on shooting things and not putting my brain to work. I think i might just play it on the PS4 though because Suspend/Resume is like the best thing ever.
 
I've been there. It doesn't look that nice now.

I searched for "World's smallest island!" Looks really nice actually, somewhere in New York state looks like.

I suppose you can't blame them for not allowing PC, it be hacked straight away.

Well to be fair Peace Waler kind of did that already. PO also to an extent but noncanon so eh.

Peace Walker also has a penis flamethrower.

I forgot all about the Peace Walker Mech and how much that one alone kind of did the MG1 and 2 mechs. Those must have just been made on a budget.
Also as for PO, that was about the lamest Metal Gear to ever come into existence. Outside of the fact that it could fly.

Area is still nice but that picture is a from a newer paint job, last I went it didn't have that. I'm about 30 minutes away from it since I am in upstate new york. There's a whole little tour where you can check that out along with a castle on a island as well.

Speaking of MGS (and no not spoilery) GAME put up some pics of the lithographs that come with Collectors Ed guide.


Might redo my custom Steam banner with that one actually as it's a pretty good colour match for the GZ one I did.

I realized that I made a mistake, it wasn't peace walker that had the flaming peepee but ZEKE, the Metal Gear you build at the end of Peace Walker.

I feel like i need to return my metal gear ultimate fan card for that error : /
