I don't think Kojima is a Molyneux but he definitely deserves his fair share of criticism.
If anything, his fans are just as bad, because if you have some kind of criticism of Kojima's work, they start circling the wagons.

Decided to break myself away from blizzard games and play Shadowrun Dragonfall, since people gush over it like Returns was shat from Satan's butthole, and I loved Returns so I'm assuming I'll love this aswell.
Anyway, what dictates your available skill slots again? I need more drones damn it!

I cant wait to see this ending that made you into the monster you are now.
The ending made you regret youre deeds
my bad i guess
i mean, his studio developed a new multiplatform engine, released peace walker, ground zeroes, pt and worked castlevania during those 7 years. they probably worked on silent hills in some shape or form, they did much of the early work on rising (tho it wasn't directed by kojima iirc) and who knows what else
and they made mgs5
i don't see how that's not prolific
and i'd love to see the sources for all the stuff you say like time and money mismanagement and whatnot

The question is, with all the cut content and split in the user base for MGS V, will it still win GOTY for folks? I haven't touched it, but from all the talk, I'd say no.
I was going to say stuff about perfect scores and such, but that's a rabbit hole that doesn't need to be opened here.

The correct answer is always Witcher 3, of course.
Three of those are shit.
I see your dilemma.
I'm not sure what the 3rd one is... Are you in camp Opium?

If youre anything like ozzy the good one is GZ

I haven't played MGSV, but I've played the other 3.
The other 3 are shit.
(If MGSV is more of GZ, I'll probably also find it shit, but I'm not judging without trying it... eventually)
Sure, threaten people =pI feel like you need to be gifted another game.

OT.
Football is back guys.
real
it was 33% off once, otherwise I believe he said he was a big fan of the game... He's given it away before
smh
Man, why the fuck did Valve hook the source 2 toolset into fucking Dota2, which you have to keep open in the background?

This is such a big issue. It took me and my friend about two and a half months to get through Divinity Original Sin. We spent about 70 hours playing it so it averages to a reasonable one hour a day. Except that's obviously not how it works out. Something happens, someone is busy and you miss a day or three. The second half of the game took us much longer and to some extent it became somewhat painful and frustrating to just get through it. It was still a fantastic experience and playing in co-op was totally worth it but it does take some stamina and commitment to get it done.
Now that I think about it, I've never really taken advantage of a free weekend either. Part of that is because my download speeds are miserable so it's rarely worth it to even try to get some of the huge games. But even if everything falls into place (like Ark Survival Evolved a couple of weeks ago), I just think to myself that it's unlikely I'm going to buy it even if it does end up being fun so why bother? On the other hand, I'm sure I've taken advantage of the price discounts on games I was interested in during free weekends and in those cases I didn't feel that I needed to try it out first.
It does work though, undoubtedly. The games usually get a ton of exposure and show up at the top of the sales charts. Evolve has managed to double it's pathetic concurrent online population on the back of the free weekend 5 days ago.
I guess maybe I'm just at the point where I don't feel compelled to try a game out before buying it now. I don't really remember playing many free demos in the last few years either. I think the last one that really sold me on a game was the Just Cause 2 demo. I had no idea what the series was about and I just tried the demo on a whim and loved it. Since then, no demo I can recall has had that effect on me.

Everyone buy Dragonball Xenoverse. The sequel needs as much funding as possible to become The Legit Best Game of All Time.
And so does Divinity: Original Sin 2, so go Kickstart it.
Is this you?

How much is Xenoverse?

It's 50% off right now, or ~$25USD. You missed the 83% off pricing mistake.
You'll literally pay for your sin of oversight.
i think im gonna buy that one too
i was thinking of getting a s3 to replace my very shitty xperia but that one sounds nicer
i wonder if it can run fallout shelter
morningbus
Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
The G is probably the best phone at that price point and Motorolla thankfully doesn't mess with Android at all.
You'll wish the version you're buying had the RAM of the latest model, but it isn't that big of a deal.

yea man xenoverse is fire, i wonder what will they do with the sequel story wise. Maybe cover the movies next time?

My prediction? Additions like transformable characters via power-up (Super Saiyan, etc) or stuff like Frieza's race and Cell's race, playable Androids, and an open storyline where you fight to restore or destroy the timeline, with or against the Time Patrol; in an opposing group of some sort... probably called the Singularity Patrol.
It'll be glorious! A GOAT if there ever was one.
cool
ohh that sounds nice
i mostly want it to not constantly reboot/freeze like my current shitty phone

Wow, that raffle is awesome. Not often you see the ability to ask for more than one game. Thanks Tiz.
Well, there is the new Dragon Ball Super series that's out already. I think it's up to episode 9 or 10.

uhhh ok.
Same here. What's your region?
Early FF titles are all region locked here as well. I'm fine with FF, but Dragon's Dogma..

i hope they remove at least one of the rngs. i understand that xenoverse is designed to have the missions played mutliple times but rng on top of rng... cmon son, thats something you make to just screw the player over. I hope next game everyone has some kind of transformations, like if a cell race does exist(which wouldn't make much sense since cell is an android) the default one(that you make) looks like a bug and the evo is perfect more humanoid and majin goes to kid form. also i hope that the majin's defense bonus gets tied to their ki instead of their stamina like how it originally was supposed to. their defense bonus is trash since it relies on stamina which you need for practically everything.
yea but like you said, only 9 eps. I'd assume that xenoverse 2 would be about the 2 canon and non canon movies and if a 3rd one happens, if super is done by that time, it will be about the 3rd(and only original arc) in Super.
yeah 1GB became an issue on the S3 and it's why Im even considering payin more for the Nexus 5 but ehh
$80 for 1 more gig of ram basically
seems silly
im sure reason why the S3 sucked at 1gig is cause I was running 4.3. jumping to lollipop and eventually marshmallow should be nice.
no removable battery is the only other bummer
BUT
that comes with the benefit of the back being sealed and 1mt water submersible for like 30 mins apparently
and I dropped the S3 on the toilet and broke it that way 2 times
so ey
I can no longer be afraid of toilets

You and me too, grats!
I'd say so, it's how I got on Steam in the first place. There was a free weekend of Left 4 Dead 1 in spring 2009, and since I liked the demo on my friend's 360 I tried it out and spent the whole weekend playing. As soon as the semester ended I went out and bought L4D and The Orange Box (boxed copies of both from Amazon, lol), added them to my Steam account, and never looked back.
I still use them occasionally for stuff I'm curious about, although it's bit me in the ass a few times since they end on Sundays for some reason.

IIRC Xenoverse was pretty much a desperate attempt to recover something from the now-dead (Asian-exclusive) Dragonball MMO that crashed and burned over there. It's where several of the concepts in Xenoverse came from--a majin race, time travel as a core gameplay concept, post-DBGT setting, etc--and I think Androids were a playable race there. They could easily explain away a Cell's race away somehow, just like they did Majins (Buu was lonely so he made company.)
But, really, there's so much potential for that formula that whatever they add should be great.
Asia, this is the first time a Capcom game is locked here since Bionic Commando, not sure why they start doing this again.
