I have been avoiding this topic to ignore any MGSV spoilers because I have a bad habit of unspoiler'ing all spoiler-tags. Stops talking about MGSV!! Let me have my 1-6 months to finish it

You guys are so mainstream, my most played game soon will be Fairy Fencer ... and not because how long it is, it isn't, but how incredibly painful 100%-it is. I wish someone told me this, before I invested this much time and funny part, I still am as far from 100% as if I only started.

and yet he talked about how he wanted to use 'taboo' elements for the story of MGS5.

I'll be disappointed if Bloodborne doesn't win it, none of the games this year have anything on it. (Maybe Persona 5?)
It's the only perfection this year, a masterpiece.
While The Witcher 3 and MGSV are nice, only W3 have chance to even compete depending on persons opinions, whether they like more book-like story or not. Personally I see nothing GOTY in MGSV, while it does gameplay lot better than Peace Walker thanks to it being full-fledged console/PC game, everything else falls short and they even didn't have time to add co-op.

Tales of Borderlands Ep 2 continues to be great.
Asylum is a great game, but City is Rocksteady putting their all into making a game. It's jam packed with everything an Arkham game should be, and is the undisputably best in the series.
Undisputably.
I didn't.

When you have Bad Rats in your Steam library, you throw shame out of the window.
Just noticed ACE Academy released recently as an EA title...
why? Looks kinda cool with mechas and all, but EA...
IDK, some people can't say no to gifts, it's shameful not to appreciate those if even for +1

Kojima exploited every oppurtunity to sexualize Quiet, why should I be the one who's ashamed?
NOT A HERO just added steam achievements (don't think they're attainable yet, but you can see them on the store)
Which is just the incentive I needed to go back and perfect all the levels.
Honestly City is a bit too jam-packed, it improves on a lot of individual elements of Asylum, but it's also kind of all over the place, and it really didn't benefit that much from being more open world. When I first started it I was kind of annoyed at all the open world side-quest stuff that's yelling for your attention. (the constant banter by thugs on the streets/riddler trophies/ringing phones etc) There was also a bit of an overload of abilities and gadgets. I didn't really get into it until I went back some time later, unlike Asylum which grabbed me right from the start.
This is why you always look at an achievement/trophy guide first, they almost always have some estimated time/difficulty rating for 100% completion.

do you know what's on greenlight? Zero Punctuation: Hatfall - Hatters Gonna Hat Edition
since when zero punctuation does games?
I never look because you know... spoilers, I'm very touchy about spoilers.

Anyone happen to know how to turn off the mouse control for the touchpad for DS4Windows? I just want to use it as a start and select replacement like on the PS4.

Edit the profile and uncheck the scroll/slide options. You can also use the touchpad swipes to do the same thing (and give you a few more hotkeys).

The latter.
Since ages ago. He did several really good point and click horror games. They're free so I recommend giving them a try.
Well, if you really want to be remain 100% unspoiled you can always just beat the game by yourself first.
playstationtrophies and xboxachievments have a pretty convenient setup where they give an estimated time/difficulty rating for 100% completion right at the top of their guides, and also mention missable/multiplayer achievements.
If you're an achievement/trophy kind of guy it's pretty useful to at least give you an idea of the time investment required and if you can get everything in one playthrough etc.

Hm, never heard of that. Would be nice, but I have a Vita so I'm covered either way, they just need to announce that they're bringing it over already.
Also, people need to be careful with the MGSV talk.
I was under the impression that this was an important aspect of the game's plot, so thanks for telling me in advance that it isn't, I guess.

Yeap Nvidia is getting lazy without strong AMD, and AMD doesn't even try anymore.

You weren't dreaming but you should really consider using Search & Google on GAF more :V
http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=963142&highlight=xanadu+next
Basically they registered domains for the games, 2 of them are already confirmed and their retail release is drawing near.
With Xanadu Next, it's either a surprise release or they'll have it out after...
I've heard a lot of good things about Xanadu Next, at the very least it's among XSEED's future releases. ATM they're working on TITS SC and OG Corpse Party far as their PC releases go. Once one of those 2 gets cleared, Xanadu Next is likely to release afterwards.
That's what I do, I check after finishing a game if there is any need, but in this case there is no need, I can see how few of those achievements are plain sadistic. I finished a game twice now I'm not close of getting any of those. IF can be so mean sometimes, like no other dev probably.
He asked if it had been announced for Steam, which a website registration doesn't offer any insight to.
Xanadu Next is a PC game, so it's safe to assume if it's coming, it's coming to steam.
Xanadu Next doesn't exist outside of a domain name, as far as we know. If your point is rather "The original Xanadu is first and foremost a PC game and Xseed released a game on Steam just a few months ago, so it's safe to assume a Xanadu sequel would come to Steam also", then fair point.

Technically there's no official announcement from XSEED, but with Trails of Cold Steel and Corpse Party Vita getting officially announced weeks ago and with them having pages on Amazon, it's safe to assume that Xanadu Next is next in line, but it's a matter of when.
It's called vocal minority for a reason. They keep making noise trying to make you believe that's the majority opinion, but as has been proved twice, the majority of GAF denizens love MGS4.
nope, that wasn't my point, Next is not a sequel, it's spinoff, and it was created as a PC game, it even has fan translation (for PC), which I never tried to my shame. So if it's coming to us, it's safe to assume that it will be on steam, because that only makes sense and because Xseed is likely to do the job.
As for Dragon Slayer series itself, I'm not sure we'll ever get those games, them being old and all, while Next we could, probably.
Since before practically anyone had heard of Zero Punctuation.

All I remember about MGS4 is how it had more cutscenes than it has any right to, and that all those cutscenes get in the way of the pacing of the game. Like you could get through a part of the game in 10 minutes time, then you'd spend like 5 minutes skipping cutscenes :V
I've been eyeing the Dragon Slayer collection, which is offer by the EGG service in Japan.
If GOG can somehow get those games onto gog, it'd be great, but that'd likely require going through some licensing or legal hooplas I worry.

Majority of GAF also loves Dragon Age: Inquisition.
People get too sensitive over this game with extremely thin plot.

Honestly after MGS4, I don't think one should put much faith into any MGS story Kojima thinks up :V Particularly one that features a Horse Poop Button and the ability to Fulton sheep.
Also one where they use modern terminology and themes in 1970s-1980s settings.

Don't want to spoil the nanomachines for anyone.
Exactly. And Skyrim too.
Here ya go:
http://www.fullyramblomatic.com/games.htm
5 Days A Stranger - A cat burglar breaks into a supposedly deserted country mansion, only to find himself imprisoned along with four strangers by a mysterious force. A nice nasty horror game with some murders and gore, with the distinction of being the... er... sixth complete game I've made with AGS.
7 Days A Skeptic - The sequel to 5 Days A Stranger. Four hundred years into the future, the scoutship Mephistopheles and its crew of six discovers something it should have left alone.
Trilby's Notes - the third game in the John DeFoe series (eventually a quadrilogy), which expands the storyline and connects 5 Days and 7 Days. Master thief turned paranormal investigator Trilby follows the trail of John DeFoe's soul idol to a small hotel in Wales, where he discovers the dark history of the cursed wood.
6 Days A Sacrifice - the long-awaited fourth and final game of the John DeFoe quadrilogy. It ties up all three previous episodes so don't even try understanding this game without playing through all the others first. Council inspector Theodore Dacabe is sent to investigate the headquarters of a fad religion and finds himself embroiled in the machinations of destiny.

Ongoing.
Nah, the game has huge pacing and plot issues, and it's probably the weakest of the mainline games. It's fine if you like the game despite those, because to be fair even at it's worst it's still an interesting train wreck just because of the production values and how crazy dumb it gets.
you know your post makes no sense? It was proven twice that MGS4 is liked by majority on gaf alone, even more outside of gaf, that you don't like the game doesn't make it less popular than it is, because let's face it if Skyrim can be this popular, nothing should surprise us anymore and I mean nothing.
People on gaf like Gone Home fgs! what more proof do you need that people can like whatever the hell they wish to like and not necessary what's good, or close to perfect or better or superior, etc.
I never hear of or played any of those games, I probably shouldn't start now, seeing as I'm drowning in games I know about.

Uh you sure read their post? They did say that it's fine to like the game, and even at it's worst, it's craziness is entertaining.
It also gave us the best Ocelot
