Great news on the Street Fighter V bit but the exclusivity? Capcom are suchy hussies. While it's not exactly better when you have stuff like Resident Evil 'exclusive' to one platform (before jumping ship of course) and then Dead Rising and Lost Planet being new IPs with both spreading their wings in later releases and LP even getting a late PS3 port though they did dive back down this hole again for Dead Rising 3 only for a PC port to turn up a year later. But Street Fighter is flipping huge for them. So now you can only get it on 2 of 3 potential home platforms? Well fingers crossed this works out for them but I wonder if this has anything to do with the initial online only nature of the Xbox One (ie tourneys and what have you) or maybe a certain platform holder and money changing hands? Then again who knows if there's a timed component about it.

It sold 8m copies across all platforms and all versions. But he did say some things about funding for another game being hard to find. Guess someone at Sony stepped in.
And yes, it really sucks for any Xbox fans out there that this game's exclusive. Money hatted third party exclusives are the worst.

Quick throwing a batarang (double tap the trigger) shouldn't break combo.Kept my word and played some Arkham Asylum. So far, not bad! Though I dunno why but using a batarang in a combo kills the combo
I could also tell them the trailer was released 6 days before the FF13-2 Steam release and 2 days after DoA5 was announced for PC.

You realize this is Ono we're talking about right?

He got into a fight with Shadownet which was banned too.
Called Shadownet a scammer and a c*nt.
I'm sure they'll wriggle out of the exclusive by releasing Super or Ultimate version later.
Better than what MS doing with Titanfall or TR at least.
And now we are waiting MGS HD Collection from Kojima and Dragons Dogma from Capcom to complete circle XD
If Ozium got banned because of this, what did get Shadownet banned?

So is it safe to say that Capcom just shot itself in the foot?

Not sure. They probably both got banned for egging each other on in the thread rather than over PM.

How long are Ozium and Shadownet in the naughty corner?

Spent a little time playing The Marvellous Miss Take today (thanks SinineSiil for the giveaway!). It's actually a lot of fun. A more forgiving version of Monaco without the multiplayer and violence. The cartoon graphics fit the comedy heist theme perfectly, and the game basically nails the atmosphere it's going for.
The early heists are pretty short (2-3 minutes each) but I'm hoping it gets more involved as the game progresses. There's some repetition involved as you have to complete levels you've already played with another character to unlock content further. Short levels means it's not a big deal though. It's good stuff and worth keeping an eye on during sales and such.
Since there was mention of Steins Gate a couple of pages ago, I just came across this on my Twitter feed where someone is convinced it might be coming to consoles. I read a little bit and my eyes glazed over with the kind of extrapolation going on but maybe someone who cares more can see if there's any merit to the theory.
As for Street Fighter 5, I feel bad for Xbox owners for missing out. The thread on the subject is going predictably. What will it take for console gamers to realize that they are not the winner any time a game goes exclusive?
I also wonder if Capcom will be able to top the Indestructible trailer for SF4. That shit was amazing when it came out.

I think he mentioned completely clearing his friend list awhile ago but was re-adding people he knew. He might have forgotten to sent a friend request. You can always send your own request and see if he accepts.
In a sea of madness a ghst post usually has me chuckling.
You call it Need for Speed Underground instead of Need for Speed Underground 4.

He summed up a large segment of the Gaf community pretty well there.

Got the Steam guard notification. Apparently someone tried to access (or accessed) my Steam account from a mobile in the States. Had to go through the changing passwords on email and Steam thing and everything. But the way it was worded made it sound like they allowed access anyway? Is that how it worked?
Have at it. I'm quite fond of Tiny Barbarian myself.

SFV well there should be something else coming as well.
Guess we'll see what it is.

Not helpful. Kinda freaked out. It's not like I give anyone my information...
It's better than it was a few months ago! So by the time SF5 comes out it might actually be considered 'good'
It is really strange to see big game announcements during whole year not only around E3
I personally prefer a more spread out announcement strategy than the localized nature of E3 which only serves to encourage fanboy debates among console platforms.

It wasn't horrible during the Summer sale. I preferred it, really. The layout was less jarring and it was more responsive around the rollover times, like 1:01 EST.
This most recent sale was just garbage, as is using mobile Steam on non-sale days. It's the previous sales that proved they had a ball to drop and drop they did. Hopefully, WinterSeal will bring it back around.

Man, Ultra feels like it just came out yesterday. I guess i won't upgrade and hold till SFV. meh.

so I guess we got an answer to 'do mods come into this thread anymore' right?
Holy shit
The only thing he'll miss is posting in the sale thread, which is probably not much of a bad thing since most sales threads are complete dumpster fires.

Every Steamguard notification I've got since the system changed has given me the code to authorise the new device or computer, the IP address of where the request was made and then details of what to do if your didn't request it like changing your password or locking your account until you chat to support. I've never had a 'success' email or anything of the sort.
They mostly come out at night, mostly.

If they aren't dumb as hell. The trailer will be Fast Cars set to "Get Low"
Literally ALL they have to do for the hype to sky rocket.
