worms 4
No bully, poor Vita-chan
Sorry, but Vita was shoved in the locked by Steam this weekend. We still don't know which locker though and Sony has no interest in finding it
ಠ_ಠ
Not loading for me either. Do you mean the 3D worms 4? Worms Ultimate Mayhem?
Eh, still an alright game but not really representative of why Worms is great.
Edit: Checked Team17's Twitter, they're giving out the original Worms 1.

I play fighting games on wifi 20 feet away from my router. Just so I have the edge.
I know, I know, but... she is still so young. She didn't deserve all the bullying done by GAF ;(
The only thing I'm looking forward to about FF7R is that it's UE4 and the screenshots from the PC version will probably be glorious.
To maximize store front visibility in the "popular new releases" list on launch day.
It's a sign.

I will be cautiously optimistic. Like I said yesterday, if they give a "Part 1" that has a fully-realized Midgar that's much more than the linear experience it was, and I can do much more sidequests/exploration than before (visit sectors and new shops/NPCs, bonus dungeons or battles, areas like the Shinra Building realized in much greater detail), I'll pick it up and see where it goes from there.
But the notion that a game like FF7 can't be recreated fully because of "unique assets" is total bullshit considering how many games have come out with similar or more content (story or otherwise) in the last decade. I don't think people were going to lose too much sleep if the assets or visuals were streamlined a bit in favor of an even deeper gameplay experience than we had before.
It's more likely that Square can't/won't invest as much upfront in it (even with outsourcing), even though it's basically been their ace in the hole for the last decade.
Well all the bullying made her a strong indiependant woman who don't need no AAA games

What if FF7R parts thing means it actually comes out soonish, the first part anyway. At this rate it's probably out before FF15 is out.
What if they split FF7R in the same spots as the original game changed discs?
It is, until it isn't.
It makes more sense to assume that anything and everything that isn't first party (either developed or owned by) has a big chance to come to other platforms. And even then it's not always certain as we now know with Helldivers.
It just doesn't make a lot of financial sense to limit your audience these days, unless moneyhats. And even then, the pile of money has to be pretty big, and Sony as a whole doesn't really have money to throw around.

I keep trying to go back to Alien Isolation, but then the Alien shows up.
Backlog smchaklog, buying games is my new hobby not playing them. It's a pretty shit hobby though
Until Squenix lock the resolution down on PC

those games are looong for my standard
the alien ended up annoying me more than scaring me lol so I dialed down the difficulty, it's still pretty tense since I just suck at stealthing

Oh you!
the article is clickbait. There is no data to suggest that. Sony got bigger because they are eating the pie of xbox and wii. And someone who buys a PS4 while having a PC is not switching, he is buying a second choice.

Doubtful, considering that the original Disc 3 for the PSX version was basically the final dungeon/Weapon fights/Wutai sidequest (if you hadn't completed the latter two yet). It was barebones compared to how much stuff was on the first two discs.
I can see them splitting it up into 7 parts.
I: All of Midgar (+expanded content)
II: Kalm to Temple of the Ancients (with Aeris cliffhanger)
III: Great Glacier to Cosmo Canyon
IV: North Crater encounter to Huge Materia sidequest (+Wutai/Fort Condor sidequests)
V: Cloud Returns / Midgar Raid
VI: WEAPON fights (+ sidequests/exploration)
VII: North Crater Finale (+sequel hooks)

I love the game, it's tense as fuck. But I'm not sure if I could replay it.
IIRC, there a mod that disables the Alien and let you explore the space station.

OMG I need that cover!
Lol, there's no way they are going to split it in that many parts. 3-4 max at most IMO.

The one issue I can see coming from FFVII being episodic: Doesn't that pretty much prevent them from doing a world map?
I suppose they could just do hubs for each episode, though. Kinda similar to what the Witcher 2 did with its progression.
so maybe not as bad as it might seem.

I can absolutely see them doing that, considering what we know so far. Midgar is 10% of the overall game, and given how they're planning to structure this as "multi-part", it would absolutely make sense to string it out over the next two-to-three years and make as much money off it as possible. It's S-E's cash cow for a reason.
I fully expect to see costume DLC and sidequest DLC too, because I have no idea how stuff like the major sidequests or the Gold Saucer are going to work with an episodic format. The most I can see them doing is allowing you to traverse a single continent/hub world with additional exploration/content, but leaving the majority of it gated off until the next installment.

Got into the Division Alpha on Xbox One. Will inform how it is.
You have to if you are not buying a PS4.
Is it only for people on the waiting list and those who pre-ordered?

Xbox one Preorders seem to be getting in. Everyone else has to wait until the beta next year.
In this day and age of insane production costs and even more insane marketing costs to recoup said production cost, third party exclusivity is only happening if a small developer who would struggle with costs for extra staff accounting for multiple version simultaneously (though most indies go PC or specific console first then round the houses one at a time afterwards), said publisher can make that back on one platform, broker a deal to cover loss of sales on other platforms or has planned things to a tee ala TakeTwo/Rockstar with GTAV (doubt that's happening again soon as it was a tail end of last gen type dealio). And pretty much every single time it's a timed exclusive glossed up in some sales patter to get said platform who has exclusivity in the interim to drive sales towards their platform. Really you could argue no one winds in exclusivity deals but without having a multi dimension machine it's impossible to know for sure.
Be careful it's NDA'd up the wazoo.

Ah yeah I was looking at the Samsung before I settled on a similar Dell but an IPS, need that color reproduction and I've always been happy with Dell. Though a part of me kind of wishes I could have waited for similar gsynch screen to go down in price and not be "busy" design wise as you said.
We all know how NDAs of closed alphas on consoles end up.

Make a trivia involving picture reordering where the answer is your feelings about the game.

Whatever number you're thinking is probably too much.
