Whoa the ghost hotel in Vampire The Masquerade Bloodlines was rather
I liked the Ocean House Hotel level and I love the game but I really do think that level is overrated in the amount of praise it gets. It's definitely no Ravenholm or Shalebridge Cradle I'll tell you that.
Now someone will say that Ravenholm and Shalebridge aren't all that either

"Square Enix are liars"
"Guys,this game is fantastic, what are the reviewers on"
"Just played FFXV, the reviews are right"
"How can people enjoy these FF games"
"The graphics are not that bad"
"I cant believe they released the game this way"
"I think people are way to harsh on FFXV"
"Digital Foundry: PS4 vs. XBONE, why did they even release it on these consoles"
"Digital Foundry: PS NEO saved the game, get one losers"
"Its time for me to eat crow, this game is....."
"Anybody wish they finished Versus XIII"
"Tabata should never direct a game again"
"Tabata just created a masterpiece with XV"
I could probably go on and on, but there are gonna be alot of threads with FFXV
How you make me want to refund your game immediately:
Bought Blood Dragon, can't remember my uPlay password so I send a request for a new one and every time I open the link to reset the password it says that it's expired. I've requested multiple password reset links and they all have the same problem. Now I remember why Ubisoft sucks, definitely avoiding their games going forward.

Actually speaking of UPlay, I notice that the UPlay store has an exclusive UPlay Store only pre order bonus for South Park 2.
What is it you ask?
They don't say!

Might else well redact that info. They've pretty much done the same to all their announced upcoming projects.

I enjoyed spirits within.
The Spirits Within is fire and I'll fight anyone who disagrees with me. FF7 Advent Children is also fire, a garbage fire, and I'm pretty sure that Kingsglaive is leaning more towards AC than TSW.

Actually, a random thought just occurred to me, why on earth is every Legacy of Kain title available on PC these days except for the very first one, Blood Omen??

Who owns the rights and how do I bribe/blackmail/fight them into putting it on Steam?
Activision did the PC port long ago. SquareEnix owns the IP.

You would think Square would just pay them. Acti probably asking for a outrageous amount though
Activision has been releasing games on GOG.com recently. So at least we know they care now about selling old games. SE released Gex on GOG.com on November 25, 2014. I don't think Square has released anything on GOG.com in almost 2 years.
I'm hoping that GOG.com has been working on getting additional games from SE.

at least you got the money back...one way or another
While we're talkin' 'bout FFXV
Will still watch tho
Was probably worth putting that money there instead of Nixxes or someone for a port.
Spirits Within is a competent film. Still probably the best VG adaption alongside the first Resident Evil.
AC is dog shite
I like the title. I take it to mean "enjoyable when drunk" but it was lost in translation from Japanese. And surely, you can actually enjoy it with a few pints down.

Yeah, pretty much. Gaming side is pretty predictable every time. Reaction threads everywhere.

I did catch a 20lb fish once and threw it in a pot I made.
We're in community though. Safely separate from those Gaming side people.
I'm fairly confident it was over 2 million.

Every time I release the R2 trigger on the DS4 while playing Grow Up, it pauses the game. And when actually pausing the game with the Start/Options button, it exists the pause menu on release.
I updated DS4Windows but that does nothing ; - ;
Any way for me to fix this?

I wouldn't call Spirits Within an adaptation, it shared few similarities with the games.

The Steam Link & Controller are both $35 on Amazon and Steam this weekend. The Link is such a helpful little box.
np! You can also automate the process if that's your thing.

idk, i like the story in dx1 and the endings while pretty goofy on their own right were at least sort of interesting. they had that spiderbot puzzle arena dungeon thing that was kind of really bad in a very funny way lol
dxhr actually i can remember very little of its story, mostly the big plot twists being really out of nowhere and ZOMBIES
ZOMBIES was just like, omg why
i think there's definitely room to be like "hey fuck developers/publishers for all the bullshit they promise and don't deliver". i respect that, that's cool, i'd be upset too if i was promised a game and gotten another. in no way ppl should be like "it's gamers' fault for falling victim of the hype", there's a 50 million dollar marketing machine operating full force to get people in that state, while people should be less dumb about it, they're also fighting a much stronger enemy
my issue is when it's like, people actively enjoying seeing the whole thing fall apart
shouldn't we all be wishing for games to be their best?
the whole schadenfraude thing just bothers me a lot, and i say so as someone that's not innocent to that and just yesterday had a big laugh over metal gear survival whatever
hey, when it's funny it's funny!
but i also feel like there's an active disdain in like just doing gifs and pictures and more pictures and writing sarcastic remarks over and over that's just draining, specially when it happens with like so many games
and also, i feel a lot of these people being like "hey ff15 looks like shit" and are like "hey i want it to look like you promised" end up being like the biggest victims of this hype machine thing, because they buy into it, even if they genuinely "never really cared" or whatever, they actually do care right now about how bad it looks compared to some unreasonably good looking demo, and by acting like that you just keep telling publisher this is the kind of material i want to see and it just reproduces the same cycle over and over and over again
it's on devs/pubs to use that footage for advertising tho
i don't really follow the no man zky stuff but say, bio infinite, that e3 demo was misleading as fuck, and like, i guess the final version of bio infinite was decent enough for me, but i held out for the last second in that game hoping that maybe in the next section the game will finally become that
what's different to me tho is that this is a mechanics thing, while most downgrade controversy stuff i've seen has been about gfx, which is kind of something that's really strong marketing cos it's so much easier to sell, specially in a mass market, that maybe won't tell the difference of what was promised in that e3 demo and what was delivered in the final bio infinite game
so idk, i'm rambling a lot, but it's mostly cos i wish ppl were less jaded and would just chill out and you know, say hey this sucks but not have to be really annoying about it lol

Dead Rising 4 is apparently not gonna have a timer. That is some bullshit. Only people who didn't want the timer there didn't even bother with the games.

Exactly! Need to expand the audience! Dumb it all right down!!
I remember actually enjoying that Silent Hill movie.
i wouldn't even call it dumb it down
like it's not like dead rising had complicated time management mechanics behind it, you can play it real chill and ok you'll have like half the people dead on you, but it's still more than playable
it's not like a huge audience was not playing it cos they were scared of the time limit, i can see the more "western" non-goofy look of 3 helping them with that if they wanted to reach a bigger crowd
removing it is just really disappointing to me cos the time limit was something that worked so well for that game, and it's such a unique mechanic to have nowadays and it was used in an actually fun and interesting way, it just isn't the same without it
also it kind of forced them to keep the game short which i find to be a pretty good length for a dead rising game since it's not really all that fun heh
Why do you care man? You play games on easy mode anyways so this should be right up your alley!

That's an incredibly apt description of DXHR. It went from OK to bad to why in a few short turns.
