Thanks Durante and others. I know that wireless is not optimal but pulling cables from here is simply not a choice. I would literally have to wire it through every single walkway in my house. Then again, I haven't had any wireless problems in past ~1.5 years myself. Then again got an A grade from Cisco CCNA part 1 so I am kind of an expert, you know.
EOP sounds interesting too. And yeah my router supports wireless N.

They played with hue, saturation and brightness! That's art.
The presentation gave me a headache.

Im super skeptical of the game. If they worlds are truly random (as random as it could be), it will be uninteresting. It has to be rigged in order to create memorable moments.

The Mako basically handles like a Warthog, so I love it.

Any idea how long this lasts or if I can transfer it to a new machine? My new computer gets here next week.

RE: Ethernet over blackmagic: If I get this: http://www.verkkokauppa.com/fi/product/2163/dgvgf/ZyXEL-PLA-4201-Powerline-adapteri-2-kpl
I would be good to go? (Couple of RJ45 / CAT5 cables non withstanding)

Yeah me too, but that is an unpopular opinion.
The mako was great to build up my kb/m drivin' skills. Far Cry 3 was a breeze after that.

Go for ones that have gigabit ethernet ports, the ones you link only have 10/100 and will limit your speed a lot regardless of the 500Mbps speed advertised.
Using the same site, these are better.

Wow this really is the polar opposite of gaming side

Weird, the description claimed 500Mbps so I thought that it would have been 10/100/1000. Thanks
1) The license activated now will last until 2018. 2) Yes.
What? Why? Should I buy the mega pack?
Including the new mega pack. It says weekend deal, ends in 24 hours, so it probably wasn't supposed to go live yet.
Not bad, but I own everything except for BattleMat and $10 for that alone isn't much of a deal.

LEGO Star Wars 50% too?
...
no
New Mega Pack?
Also before buying anything I'm waiting to see if there'll be daily deals.

Time to buy the Princess and Fairy Pack so it can sit in my inventory until I hit 3,994.

So I did a bad thing on the way home...
Still not as bad as EA though...
Also I loved the Mako. I could shimmy that sucker into a sardine can.
Well when you looked at the PS2/Xbox/GC era and their outsourcing efforts and then how they responded it was a complete polar opposite. Lost Planet was a cracking job but then DMC4 & RE5 raised the bar. Then again GFWL was festering around and Capcom had started courting the consoles more afterwards
When you get your hands on RE5 you should be able to push it further than I can. 5120x2880 and I'm out of VRAM with plenty of performance to eek out of one GPU let alone 2.
Yeah I know

I mean come on it's not like they have 100's of releases to manage and not get them in the wrong order.

You know, I loved exploring random worlds in ME1 and I really missed that in the future versions. I realize that there was little to do but give me that over the mining mini-game that was introduced instead.
The mega pack of games they added not long ago: http://store.steampowered.com/sub/52412/
Now I need to find a trader to sell it to me for $20.

Huh, I thought DMC4 wasn't GFWL but just regular GFW.
Must've played it after they patched it out then or something.
I can't wait until GFWL is patched out of RE5, I played it earlier this year and damn, it still looks purty.Well when you looked at the PS2/Xbox/GC era and their outsourcing efforts and then how they responded it was a complete polar opposite.

Heck, Origin doesn't even know what DLC for Dragon Age Origins I own.

The standard difficulty isn't super hard.
Yes, there is a NG+ option -- when using it, you can play on any difficulty you completed and below (via chapter select or whatever).
So if you start on Survival (not Casual) when you complete it, you can play Survival or Casual in NG+ with the unlocked weapons and your upgraded Sebastian.
And starting from the beginning on any difficulty is doable -- it's forced that you start over if you choose a difficulty higher than the ones you completed on. If it required NG+ to have upgrades and such, it'd be outwright impossible. I'm almost done with chapter 6 on Survival and I haven't hit any area that's outright rage-inducingly difficult.
DMC4 and the initial Lost Planet were GFWL free though retail copies were GFW branded. It's LP Colonies and after that the disease caught on.
I'm in two minds whether to go through RE5 and get the Xbox/GFWL Live achievements before the Steamworks patch drops or hold on in case they give us some extras (though I doubt the Gold Edition DLC is coming over but it's nice to dream).
I've got the same with some of my ME2 DLC. It shows up on BioWare Social but not in the Origin client. I really should get on to support about that.
On the other hand it's a pretty apt counter to inane "If a developer features A in their game then they obviously can't have B." See: Gameplay > Graphics, Gameplay > Story/Cutscenes, etc.

Wait until the weekend sale officially starts or you might look dumb when we get dailies. Or I might look dumb when there isn't a weekend sale.
