Sweet Lily Dreams --MB-BEB2EB2CF648DCF4- Taken by A Fish Aficionado
I guess teams will be random if they choose to go that way for winter sale and they give away these tokens in case you want to be red again. Doesn't explain the description tho. Could be a bug.
Kingston HyperX 120GB (Rev 3.0)
A decent but not amazing SSD model performance wise. The Samsung 840 Evo/Pro or Intel 730 series are better performers and now with the new price reductions, from Black Friday that will likely repeat in a few weeks, are better deals. But considering the ancillary needs when I purchased it, the HyperX was a better overall choice
Wolfenstein is a very entertaining experience. The only issue with a clean replay is the collectibles. Some of them are just there to be collected, but others unlock new aspects of the game. While discovering them for the first time is amusing, especially the ones in hidden rooms, there is no gameplay mechanics associated with finding them unlike the Batman series which often hides their collectibles behind mini-agility challenges. So it may become tedious. :/
Hmm, I haven't had the time to do extensive analysis. Thanks for the tip however, I will see if that is the underlying issue, which I do hope it is. I don't look forward to dealing with a possible RMA process.
Yeah, it's a good idea to use a cloud service as a secondary backup for personally important files and images. Especially because a fire or flood can ruin your personal physical backups.

You'd be crafting most of the time though, loot drops tend to suck.
dude cmon
i've been trying to build hype for this game for months
why does no one listen
(also aside from the current patching tragedies, my post-release dead state experience has been pure unfiltered falloutian happiness)
Oh Hekk! Are those cocks under your Gooch?

But isn't it heavily censored?
You just jelly nobody does a Mussolini game
Only the Nazi stuff was removed, IIRC.
Haha, I love Sunny. I was gutted when I read that the upcoming season wouldn't kick off until January (normally it'd almost be over by now).
Nope, some names were changed and a level was changed.

It's in german, but the pictures should speak for themselves. Also mind that this goes on for seven pages.
edit: my favorite fix:
You just jelly nobody does a Mussolini game
man that spooky face building would make for a pretty cool level
i don't think you're allowed to judge things as interesting

What did they replace them with? Nazis and the alternate history stuff are the best part of the game in my opinion.
I wish the Wolf3D easter egg offered the entire game rather than just one the level.
See Chariot's link above.
Look at the link I provided above. They replaced everything that has to do directly with nazis, including nazi soldier ranks and they call it just "the regime" instead of the nazis.
Does Mussolini has a building build after his face?

i guess the layout is kind of pedestrian for a videogame but it's a pretty creepy image
A building only a mother could love.
Holy Shit. I mean... holy shit, I can't

Man, I've been gaming since 1987 and I'm pretty damn sure next year will be my favorite ever.
The 2 japanese games I most wanted to see localized and had already given up on are finally happening (Trails in the sky SC and Yakuza 5).
Most of my favorite franchises are getting new entries:
The Witcher 3
Bloodborne
Uncharted 4
Persona 5
Devil Survivor 2 Break Record
MGS 5
REmake HD and Revelations 2 (not as big as getting a new mainline game but with the way RE is going these might actually be better, REmake is one of my favorite games ever).
Arkham Knight also has me very hyped.
Xenoblade Chronicles looks awesome too (really enjoyed the first) but I don't have a WiiU.
So yeah, this is crazy. I just wish most of these weren't releasing so close to each other, the first trimester is insane.

Is there any patch to make it the good version?
False alarm, I have the uncensored version, for some reason I thought those pics looked like my version, but mine has the svastikas and they are called nazis.
You just jelly nobody does a Mussolini game
Yeah and thank god for it!
Our idiot young'uns and their fascist revival totally need this kind of endorsement from the entertainment industry.
IIRC they delayed it because they were about to do (mostly writing I think?) a show with Tracy Morgan before his accident.
actually it'd be pretty interesting to see a game made from the nazis' point of viewYeah and thank god for it!

something like jin roh or something
aaa developers are not nearly ready to make something like that, but still, would be interesting and frightening
Yeah, I really wish publishers would spread out their releases more evenly. But, unfortunately, the sales data shows it is more advantageous to release within certain shopping seasons and certain dates. There is a small exception when releases will significantly cannibalize sales however.
Arkham Knight is a title to watch, but I am a bit apprehensive due to the issues with Arkham City.
Alternatively, The Witcher 3 is less ambiguous. Not only due to the pedigree of the developer but also because getting a refund for my purchase at this juncture would be...difficult.
MGS5 is completely dependent on whether I can use the Japanese VA for Snake. Kiefer Sutherlands' rendition has been disappointing to unbearable so far.

That's a good point. It's weird that the trailer doesn't mention PC because it would be a good idea to include the fact that it's cross-platform in the trailer.
Don't white supremists try to make those all the time?XD But yeah would be interesting to see a game like that, that wasn't a strategy game.
IIRC they delayed it because they were about to do (mostly writing I think?) a show with Tracy Morgan before his accident.
Ah, that'd explain it.
Well, we did get cross-platform play confirmation with SFV. One outta two ain't bad.
