Hahaha good gawd Resident Evil Revelaitions is dumb. In all new levels of dumb. I do like the ship segments though. And the shooter sections too, expect they are way too simplistic. But the dumbness here is just over the top.

Yeah. While the old RE games were still on the border of having some B-Movie flair, Revelations is a full blown B-Movie in terms of games....

Best part of the Humble captcha is if you try to click the refresh to get another one, a popup dialogue gets in the way.

I want to thank everyone who convinced me to buy RE6. I just finished the prologue and it's surprisingly good. I'm not a fan of the huge amount of QTE's but whenever it shifts to actual gameplay its SO good. It controls like a slower paced vanquish, which is probably my favorite third person shooter of last gen. I can tell I will really enjoy playing through the game.

I was also surprised by how well it runs. I have a moderately good laptop (6gb RAM, latest gen i5, R7 M265) and it runs at an almost constant 60fps with almost all settings on high. I'm glad I didn't settle for the ps3 version, the performance difference is night and day.

Injustice Patch just went out. Now to hope that they release patch notes. Maybe we're finally getting that online patch?
 
I should feel pretty damn bad for not wanting to play Crimzon Glover

Maybe not Glover but Clover? All the way! Granted, it's kind of quite hardcore shmup fan oriented but Simple mode is simple enough and very challenging.

I put a combined of 80 hours between the original demo release and the doujin retail version. Then put another 10 hours on this new version.

For those who think shmups and such don't have replayability!

NetherRealm and Warner Bros. have released a patch today for Injustice: Gods Among Us Ultimate Edition to fix some issues related to Online and Framerate – details below:
Fixed issue related to players not being visible in rooms
Fixed the invite system to address simultaneous invites and invites that arrive after the player has started entering a match
o Note: This fix changes the system so that invites arriving after entering a match or actively matchmaking are ignored
Fixed a desync when using chat in Big Picture mode
Fixed framerate issue related to cutscenes

Hope that means we can finally see that Scarecrow cutscene at 60 fps.

Also those invites things sound like what was plaguing Ultra SFIV

This. More often than not the misconception of lacking replayability comes from the innate tendency of western gamers to just credit feed like mad, or think it's some sort of CoD where death doesn't have a price.
1CC all the way!
 
So, from what I've played of DR3 so far it looks like Melee > Ranged. Is it safe to invest most of my points into Melee over Ranged then?

Grim Reaper Fire Awesome Scythe ftw.
Combo firearms can be just as mindnumbingly overpowered as combo handweapons. The Z.A.R. wrecks every individual opponent (special enemy types or bosses) while the Splitshot decimates waves of zombies like it's nothing. Can't go wrong with either, even though melee gear is higher in number overall.

I think ranged is generally stronger, but there is the problem with ammunition. You should definitely start to max out melee first, but ranged comes in handy and sometimes even necessary in the later missions. Always have a fully loaded rifle in reserve.
Ammunition isn't really a problem with how safehouses are always 2 minutes away and with how much more potent guns get (including an increasing amount of bullets) further down the "Ranged" skill tree. I could lay waste to 200+ zombies with only 50 bullets from the Splitshot (out of 150+ total IIRC) after I had that category maxed out, so take that as you will.

Wow, if you liked the prologue you will definitely love the rest of the game.

You can turn off QTE's btw.

Also for the handful of people here that bought the new Naruto, preload is up and apparently it unlocks in a few hours. Of course this happens when I'm unable to get to a computer... ;-;
