Blood Dragon is almost offensively stupid, but it sure is scratching my Far Cry itch. I minmaxed the damage on my favorite guns, now nothing stands in my way as i try to stop some general man who is juicing on dragon's blood.
And I'm stuck at work for another 2,5 hours é_é

I tried bumping the Origin thread, but it's a graveyard.
I thought it unlocked tomorrow?
it's so damn annoying. I stopped changing party members because of this.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
To be fair, the climate back then was very different to today. And if anything, that post at least serves to reflect the time period it was made in.

I'm rocking Sazh, Vanilla, and Light now. Am I doing it wrong?
I beat the game using Light, Fang and Hope.
Hope is the strongest RAV in the game, has great buffs as well. Just put a HP+1500 accessory on him with Tetra-Defense Crown and he stops dying so much.
Fang debuffs almost as well as Vanille and is a much better attacker and tank (SAB is required for many harder encounters).
Light is just damn fast, especially with Auto-Haste. Good backup healer as well.
And i still don't know if I should make a quick "visit" to Mexico and get the game early/cheap or wait for it to drop in price (no way I'm spending 60 on it or any other PC game). Maybe i should just replay Origins in the meantime and see how well that game holds up today, although that would probably only lead to my impatience growing further.
Dragon Age: Inquisition might just be my favourite game released this year. Considering my expectations and relationship with recent BioWare games, that’s about as likely as Saturday night’s soggy kebab being my favourite meal of the year. I’ve spent almost sixty hours uncovering as much of Inquisition’s enormous open world and intricate story as possible, and as soon as I have a few days free, I’ll be spending another sixty or eighty hours seeing it all through new eyes.

Let us know how it works with the Denuvo stuff.

I find it fascinating how much WiiU/3DS get recommended here. So I looked at their games libraries and it is hilarious how lopsided it is. First-Party neither on Nintendo nor Sony/MS means automatically fun for everyone. It's very subjective and most important, very similar output. Most of Ninty's current games do nothing for me. Bayonetta has zero-zilch appeal. All the platformers/kart/smash would only matter as fillers during droughts at best for me as well. Mind you, it has nothing to do with the quality. If you're a sucker for Nintendo's output - and only theirs - then I could recommend it.
And the appeal of BC to play Wii games is also a bit dampened when you can relatively easy play them at better fidelity on PC.
The 60$ price mistake - only US sadly - is just worth it currently imo. I would recommend PS4/Xone much more. For the the next 2-3 years they seem like quite the cheap alternative for PC. I mean, there were many threads and angry posts about how PC and PS4/Xone cannot be compared but I recently watched many direct-feed videos of new releases and I am for the most part impressed what 400$ machines can output. Far Cry 4 at 1080p with very stable 30fps was impressive. Some friends of mine who were very much PC folks got pleasantly surprised at their consoles performance.
I'll still stay PC anway. Mainly because I buy late and cheaper than on consoles.

What the heck? You had fewer games than me just a month ago and now you're more than double me already? When and what did you get so much stuff?

Wow. Just wow.

You always have the most unique emotes. I mostly don't understand them though, haha.

Part-time huh? You were in the movie biz, so I guess fluffer?
So weird. My mouse gets disabled completely once I start the game. Only touchpad works and I have to close and reopen explorer.exe from task manager to make the mouse work again.

Haha, I have been trying to get a job at either of the two nearby cinemas, but thus far no luck. I'll just be glad to be working more than a few hours or so a week.
People can get most of the multi-platform titles from the Xbox One and PS4 on the PC, and even some "exclusives" too, like the recently released Ryse. So it makes sense to recommend the Wii U with the PC, since Nintendo won't be releasing Super Mario 3D World, Pikmin 3, Wind Waker HD, or any other of their great games on Steam. You get the best of both worlds. Sure, you do miss out on some games, like Sunset Overdrive and Destiny, but those very well could come to PC next year.

I havent enjoyed a BioWare game this much since Baldurs Gate II and I havent enjoyed an RPG this much since well, Divinity: Original Sin. Ask me to choose between them though and Id throw sand in your eyes and run a for the hills clutching them both to my chest.

I managed to get several more hours of Watch_Dogs in this weekend, and I'm really wondering why it gets so much hate. Now, the game certainly isn't revolutionary, and it's got flaws, but I'm actually really enjoying it overall.
While some of the hacking stuff really is just fluff that doesn't do much, I really enjoy being able to use my environment to my advantage and bring up barriers or burst steam pipes under the road and take out my pursuers. I also really love the use of cameras, being able to hack from camera to camera to gain more info about enemy positions or look for things to remotely blow up to take them out.
What I'm not so certain about is the story. I'm nearly halfway through it, and while it is not 'bad', it isn't great either. I feel like we were pushed into the wrong part of Aiden's story to start with. In the Assassin's Creed games, by comparison, we usually get to see the character get introduced to their abilities and life as an Assassin. In Watch_Dogs, it begins and the game is like 'oh yeah, by the way, you're an awesome vigilante for reasons. Also, you hack stuff, but you're not a hacker'.

I like to imagine JaseC plays the Licensed Game Steam Stock Market. Buy low, sell high. I myself have 20 or so copies of Wheelman that I'm waiting for the right price to sell on.
I get what he's going for here, but it's a video. Of course he can always make it 1080p and 60 fps.

Fucking hell Ubisoft. Your games can look amazing, but for the love of god please hire some decent UI designers. Don't just plaster the screen full of UI elements and then refuse to let me turn at least some of them off. Jesus christ. Seriously, I feel like half the time AC looks like this (on console at least, I presume the PC version also doesn't let you turn that stuff off )

wait what, it's not being released in India because you can have gay relations in the game?
The player from The Escapist was only 1080 if you paid (correct me if wrong) and I don't believe it could even do 60 FPS.

You can turn UI elements off under HUD options.

Every AC game has HUD options!
You know, I almost made a new thread because this annoyed me so much. I'm glad I didn't. Although I might deserve ridicule. I seriously have no idea how I missed that.
Go on.
Uh, there is not much else. That is the story. http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?p=139096828#post139096828
Somebody mentioned lean keys and everybody else was surprised which was very funny.

Man, working at a cinema sounds fun. You get to watch movies for free and early. Free snacks and drinks. But there are bound to be unpleasant people, like many service-related jobs. Ah well.
Wish Amazon Turk was available in Germany. Need a job. Looks like winter sale's gonna be a no-show for me :/
Do you have any movie project to show yet btw?

Yeah, for people having multiple systems maybe, if they're into Nintendo stuff. But the diversity in exclusives at Nintendo is just not there compared to the others for me.
Interestingly enough, today is MGS3's 10 year anniversary and Konami has a PC-specific announcement in a few hours...
I was just trying to get the keyboard prompts out of you, but I will just look it up in game.
