[tanis_lionheart]

Yep. The new expansion, brave new world really adds a whole lot And changes the social policies and cultural victory in other things It's actually a GREAT idea.

Instead of JUST adding a some new cultures or whatever, it gives you more ways to win during the later game.

I wonder what they're gonna do next.

[glory of llama]

EXTENDED POST ON CIV V:


I would like a way to put units into control groups... managing 100+ units one at a time in battles at endgame are just exhausting, mentally, especially in multi-front wars...

and the same for cities. I REALLY want them to develop a Mayor or something, some AI that you can let run a city so you don't have to tell it what to do all the time. call me lazy, but I tend to focus on my Big Three, you know? or five or six, whichever are my most productive cities. The rest I just pop open the build menu to see what random structure hasn't been built yet, and click it just so I can Move On. I mean **** Sid, it's not a subscription game, you're not making money by forcing me to micromanage this ****!

Not only that, like just back in previous Civs, I want my select-all-cities command. Back in IV, you could control click one city's quick production bar and cause all cities to build an item (if a city wasn't able to, it continued whatever it was doing). you could also shift-click and ADD an item to the production bar, instead of this bull**** with first going into the city screen, then clicking the little checkbox to tell the game the production your choosing is being ADDED instead of changing to, and then you can select the item...and instead of simply rightclicking to remove an item you have to hit the little X, which again you can only do if the Add Items button is clicked off...... gayness. ridiuclous timewasting gayness.


I've never had a problem with any of the "game concepts" decisions of the Civ games, not really. Each game has been somewhat different in terms of relgion, spying, types of victories, etc etc. That's fine. If anything, that's GREAT, cause it means it's really a new game each time.

What ticks me off are the INTERFACE choices they make, when they don't add in super-useful interface features or don't continue to use ones they've given in the past. You can have the best damned game ever, but it's still gonna piss me off if it doesn't have ease-of-use. I feel like they need to go back to Civ III or IV and catalog all the ease-of-use interface implementations they had, and one by one go through to make sure any new Civ has em.

...and as a final note, wtf Sid, F12 is the quickload button? F12 has been Steam's screenshot button for how long, and you don't even give us hotkey reassignment? Not one other game I have uses F12 for ANYTHING, but the one that does doesn't let you change it, and even worse, Civ V's own screenshot button (known only by accidental keypresses or finding the manual) takes screens in TGA format. TGA!?!?!!? WTF?!?! Is jpb or bmp or even freaking PNG not good enough for you?!?! I have to go online and get a converter just to show some people my screenshot without having to use QUICKTIME photo viewer! Jebus, Sid, get your ****ing head right.

[glory of llama]

The XCOM Squad in Civ V may be the most useful unit ever!

Paratroopers were pretty lame IMO, cause they had a pretty small airlift radius, were weaker than pretty much every other unit, and therefore weren't very cost efficient.

XCOM Squads however had a range of 40 tiles! On the earth map I'm playing (on Huge setting) that means they can drop from an island west of australia in the pacific all the way to just north of India, and do it again every turn as long as they're in friendly territory. Plus, their strength is 110, making them more powerful than anything but Giant Death Robots. And they cost just less than Stealth Bombers to build. Also they still have their 3 movement points after dropping, so if you had a whole bunch of em lying around somewhere, you could drop them onto every defensive tile in enemy territory and next turn beat the crap out of the locals. I like to use a tank or some fast unit to get me sight of the tiles adjacent to a city, then drop one there, giving me sight of the whole area, then surround the entire city wiith em. And I do the same thing when one of my city state allies is getting invaded, I just drop a bunch of em all around the city, giving it a wall of green plasma death! It used to be Mech. Inf. were my ground-holders, but now it's XCOM Squads :D

So yeah. XCOM Squad- makes maneuvering obsolete.

For a game that scores you on creativity it doesn't offer you many options to be creative. Kind of like Bulletstorm. Still not as great as I thought it would be.

It is beautiful, chaotic, fun, idiotic, ridiculous, tragic, mesmerizing and blood boiling all in one and it is so in a highly stylish matter.

Funny story. There's this Russian actor that has taken the liberty to claim copyright imfringement on every Shin Megami Tensei related video on Youtube, leading quite a many video being taken down and even having a lot of accounts - both big and small - taken down. She's been very productive, actually. Making a massive impact already in the amount of SMT related videos available on Youtube.
Here's the kicker. She taking down all of these videos because she has a website named personastars.com. That's right. She's persecuting every Shin Megami Tensei related video because its spin-off game series has the name Persona in it. Nevermind the fact that the Persona games, as well as the SMT series has been around longer than her site.

why would you do that?

Pretty much what Shuiia said. You can make progress much faster. Assuming that X and Y will be like every other game, after the fourth gym and the inclusion of Audino, you're pokemon are going to be overleveled as ****. Trainer's simply offer cash and higher-level pokemon, thus gaining you more experience; however, they become an annoyance on that higher level because they only carry level 30 fodder pokemon, while your stuck with level 60 tanks of destruction. Once you beat their pathetic baby pokemon with your level 67 dunsparce army, that exp is kinda wasted on them due to how much exp they need. Black and White had a good fix to this that made Breeders rebattle you every time you enter the area; however, with this, you can avoid unnecessary battles as well as save said battles to help level up the certain pokemon in the future - sparing yourself from fighting the same breeders and committing genocide on the Audino population.

i found geting past trainers with no confrontation sort of a chalange on it own

I gotta admit, while having to fight through hordes of embarrassingly underpowered trainers is almost a chore when I'm simply trying to get all of my pokemon up to level 70 after having finished the game, I can't say that I disliked particularly when trainers suddenly challenged you from out of the darkness inside caves, or when you had to sneak past constantly moving trainers to drag your only tank's poisoned/paralyzed ass back to town to get healed...

If you can't play with a keyboard and mouse an xbox controller works great. The steam controller isn't that good. They're are many different controllers out there and if like me your both pc and console you should probably have a backup wired xbox controller if you have an xbox.

the thing with the steam contorller is itll work with all steam games even those not designed to work with a control pad.

Preview for Pokemon: The Origin shows Red's Charizard, who isn't shiny, becoming the X megaevolution. So it's petty much guaranteed for version exclusive.
EDIT: Finished the episode a bit ago. Mega confirmed.

[jinzo64]

it's been confirmed that megaform of charizard will be a different design in X and Y, the same for mewtwo so I guess they'll do the same with all the mega forms and do the same again for pokemon Z

[Backmask]

If there even is a Z. Remember, they still haven't done a third iteration for Black/White or Black/White version 2.

Black and White 2 was technically Black and White's third iteration The Pokemon games usually start with two separate versions to introduce people to the new generation, then a third version is released and establishes the canon story of the generation.
Black and White, however, did this differently. They wanted to give these a continuity(hence the memory link function and the narrative of B&W2 in general).
Essentially, in the Pokemonverse, Yellow, Crystal, Emerald, Platinum, B&W, and B&W2 are all the canonical games. 5th gen just did stuff differently.

random thought on the mega forms I wondr if they'll eventually give it to every final stage pokemon and every legendary pokemon.

the idea was interesting but I think they might be pushing it with there being multi mega forms for each pkoemon depending on which game your playing.

They can hold up to 8 gigs, actually. Pokemon X and Y are only 1.7 gigs.
But I'm sure you're right in that their workload is a factor in the number of new pokemon.

[jinzo64]

maybe they kept the new pokemon numbers low so that Z can be the big multi region game everyone as been after for years, every pokemon and every region on one cart that would be awsome.

It's not that the apps are overpriced, it's that they're ****ing retarded and only get any sales due to the tie-ins they have with the main games. Though, five bucks a year for Pokemon Bank is absolutely bull****, all things considered.

If I recall correctly they've openly admitted it was their cash cow that they were milking for all its worth now and aren't really taking too seriously any more. The last part is evidenced with the fact that many of the newer generations are uncreative (or maybe extremely creative?) or just plain ass weird and unnecessary.

It's been like that since Bad Company 2.
I hated Bad Company 2. It basically pretended Bad Company didn't exist. I mean, in the first game they basically deserted the army and the army became their enemies. If I recall correctly, they even stole gold from the army (that the army stole from some mercenaries that the characters were trying to steal the gold from xP) Now in Bad Company 2, they're in the army again like as if nothing happened. Did they receive a presidential pardon or something? Did they return the gold to the army and are poor again?

...forgive me if there's any inaccuracies in my statement. It's been awhile since I actually played either game, but my memory is generally pretty good.

That kinda sounds right.
At one point, they were AWOL, but were able to cut a deal with the army to drop these charges so long as they investigated a neutral country. Then they got in a pickle and the army said that they won't be helping Bad Company out of their pickle, so the Bad Company decided to do their own **** and get the gold. At worst, they stalled the U.S. Army by blowing up some bridges, but that was all of their confrontations. How they got away with the gold in the end without getting caught is beyond me.
As for the second game, they had their charges dropped and resumed their service in Bad Company - as stated in the army's deal (they aren't aware that they were the ones that blew up the bridges in the first game, so they didn't have much animosity towards them).

Actually it went as follows:
Que 3 guys bad on their luck in Bad Company
One time during a mission they find some gold from the legendary Legionnaires
They then embark on a mission to find said gold seeing as how their rewards for being in the army are kinda low and they have nothing to lose in general
Going on said mission leads them into a neutral neighbouring country succesfully invading that country
The squad is at this point prone to being court martialed should they be caught by US troops so they decide to pursue the gold even further
which in the end leads them to be caught by US troops.

Now they got a deal out of it by investigating the country that they just invaded and capture it's eccentric dictator since the squad is officially AWOL and therefore free from US liability. They then set out to capture him(sorta they escape legionnaire troops in his solid gold Hind). By this time the country they previously is considered hostile and at war since they shot down a Black Hawk earlier on. After cripling the legionnaires which now invaded said country they set out again to get the gold.
Doing that they slow down the US advance by blowing up some bridges unbeknownst to them, kill the big baddie and then find the gold depot. To see that it already being raided by US troops. Preston then convinces the chief in charge that they are also responsible for a load.

So they take a truck and ride of merrily into the sunset.

Now, as to how BC 2 plays out.
The squad is no longer in Bad Company, they transfered to the real deal.
They are in said real deal since they were put on a special assignment to investigate a scalar weapon and they are the only ones to pull it off etc. etc. etc.
As to the gold, they were probably caught at some point soon after their little hustle at the end of Bad Company

In fact, while I’d intended to post the above tech demo of the improved Kinect from Microsoft Research, I noticed, alongside the intricacies of a hoodie and jeans--and there’s no graceful way to put this--a dong. The Kinect hardware/software is now so effective at deciphering the bumps and folds of clothing that it can pinpoint a man’s package down to its pant leg, carving out the distinctive folds in our trousers that society, backed by a bit of shadowy denim, has become remarkable at ignoring.

As soon as I made the observation, it brought me back to a moment I must have repressed during the Xbox One announcement at Microsoft’s campus in Redmond. Testing the new Kinect in a cozy room, I, amongst a small handful of journalists and engineers who I didn’t know, caught a glance at my own man lump snake python on the screen. I felt the fear of every ninth-grade boy called up to the chalkboard.

I also agree with this article, the ps4 and xbox one having nothing at launch that can't already be done by the current gen and the future promises are to make them do what current gen is already doing. the more I think about the more I think microsoft and sony may have jumped the gun on next gen.

Uh, it's been 8 years, the gun has definitely not been jumped. The systems can do things that the older gen stuff can't, like the PS4's live streaming function. I'm personally liking my new PS4, and haven't really stopped playing it since I picked it up at launch.

[jinzo64]

Personaly I think sony could have got another 2 maybe 3 years out of the ps3, but thats just an opinion.

also alot of the featurea that sony and microsoft announced at E3 won't be available til a later via updates, I think it would have been nice if the launch of next gen had be held off until the consoles could have been launched with all there shiny new bells and whistle out of the box.

[Haar]

Super Nintendo had F-Zero and Super Mario World. Dreamcast had Power Stone and Sonic Adventure. I don't particularly care for Super Mario World or that version of Sonic Adventure, but you generally need flagship titles to push consoles.


When I got my N64 for christmas the same year it came I'm posative I got mario kart 64 and Mario 64.

Mario Kart 64's European release date was June 24, 1997. Super Mario 64's European release date was March 1, 1997. The North American release was earlier, but it had a larger gap between the release of the two games.

[SuperLoliSentai]

When I got my N64 for christmas the same year it came I'm posative I got mario kart 64 and Mario 64.

As a child I believe we all had our own release dates for consoles that don't match the original launch date, aka when you were able to bug your parents enough for them to drop hundreds of dollars on a stupid plastic box that they knew would waste all your time, so in that way the N64 probably did launch with Mario Kart 64 for you.

[tanis_lionheart]

Only system I ever got at launch was the PS2.

And that's only because my dad felt guilty for breaking my (barely functional) PS1...
Plus, it was the cheapest DVD player out there at the time.

So apparently Drakengard 3 is gonna be released pretty restrictively in the west. Things like website only orders and limited supplies are no stranger to this sales tactic.
The devs and pubs claim that they want to test and see how well these games are gonna be sold in the west so they can make more knowledgeable decisions on exporting games.

With JP devs and pubs not accepting anything less than CoD-tier sales for a microscopic succes, this might become an extra nail in the coffin of JP exports.

B-but that doesn't really make any sense. Even the top selling games in Japan don't get into CoD-tier sales. The closest they get is in the 2-3 million area, and you'll only ever see those numbers coming from Pokemon, Tales Of, or Super Mario Rehash.

It was a gross exageration. My point was that they will label a game an immense failure if won't sell like hot sandwiches over here even if it'll take a few years to get to that point and even if the fan reception is pretty strong.

[humnut]

I don't know, Sega released the Hatsune Miku game on PS3 over the summer. It comes down to individual companies. Like the Tales of series, we got Tales of Xillia and if I remember correctly they have green lighted the sequel for a western release, however, due to poor sales on the Vita, we won't be seeing ports of the Vita titles, which are Tales of Innocence and Hearts.

I don't think they want these games to sell immensely well, but they are businesses and do have to make a profit, so I'm sure we won't see a lot of the games that we want come over here. Your best bet is to learn Japanese and import the games if you really want to play them.

The thing is though. Exporting titles costs a bunch of money and a lot of JP devs and pubs are having money troubles at the moment so anything that isn't a sure cash in for the weeaboo dollar i.e. Project Diva, FF, Tales etc. is bound to be JP only for the next couple of years.

So actual proper games are looking at severe restrictions IF they are released at all in the west.

Meanwhile you have devs that are such enormous westaboos that they will not shy away from taking a financial risk.
Luckily for us this game is actually good.

Good point, and I don't think MGS is ever not going to come over here, seeing as it is a huge money maker. Hell, MGS 4 sold ps3s when they were expensive as hell. But I've seen some strange games come over here, things like the Hyperdemension Neptunia series, Mugen Souls, Time and Eternity and Guided Fate Paradox, to name a few. These are not huge hits and still manage a to get a western release. I find that being an employee of a gaming retail company (I'm not allowed to say which one), these titles are hard to sell, no matter how much I promote them. Still the games keep coming, and though I don't see them move out of the store, companies will still shell 'em out.

I guess it could come down to the consumers now though. I hate to bring it up again, but Project Diva F would have never been ported if people didn't bug sega for a long ass time to do so. If there is enough outcry for a game, we could see it ported, if enough of us gather together, and tell these companies that we want to buy their games, we'll see an increase of obscure Japanese titles.

Yes, petitions and the like do help a lot. Even so though Sega is STILL not willing to export Yakuza 5 to the west even though there is a pretty strong demand from western players to play this game.

Wait, wait, wait. You never ****ing played Snake Eater until now?

Also, MG1 and 2 are horrible, and not from terrible aging. They're just down-right awful games. Both riddled with tedious amounts of backtracking, terrible AI, ****ing pathetic bosses, level design that feels like ass, and contrived puzzles. What's more is that MG2 improved upon MG1 exponentially, yet it was still a monumentally **** game.
Though it does make certain conversations in the series more humorous. Like how characters keep talking about that "legendary balls-to-the-wall amazing" fist fight between Frank Yeager/ Gray Fox and Snake - which really consisted of Franky briskly jogging circles around a small room while Snake stood in place punching Franky whenever he got too close to Snake.

Both riddled with tedious amounts of backtracking
You only backtrack like what? Twice in MGS1? In 2 it was annoying yes, because you had to drag Emma along at one point but other than that you don't really backtrack at all in 2. But the backtracking is at least not as bad as in say Zelda games 4 e.g.


terrible AI, ****ing pathetic bosses, level design that feels like ass, and contrived puzzles.
terrible AI: not quite, how so?
pathetic bosses: In 2? myeah, sorta. In 1? absolutely not. entertaining and quite intense boss fights at times. Psycho Mantis for example was quite something, Rex's battle was something to remember, Sniper Wolf's sniper battles were also quite fun and Ocelot talking dirty whilst reloading is just golden.
level design that feels like ass: How so? Keep in mind these are bases, tankers and Off shore platforms. So it is quite normal for it being a corridor fest, claustrophobic and just not open battlefields and the like.
contrived puzzles: Metal Gear has never been too big on puzzles m8.


What's more is that MG2 improved upon MG1 exponentially, yet it was still a monumentally **** game.
Dude, the story was pretty damn good, graphically it was good as well, the gameplay was a vast improvement and paved the way for coming installments.
Did you even play it or is it just that you didn't like having to play with Raiden for the majority of the game?


Though it does make certain conversations in the series more humorous.
Yeah, from MGS2 onwards convos became more slapstick than serious thoughtfood.

You just stood in place? I was running around trying to catch the bastard and trying to not get hit. Also when do they mention this? I've never heard it mentioned before in MGS2 or 4. At least not that it was an epic fistfight to the death kind of match. That was their brawl in a minefield circa Metal Gear 2. The fact that it isn't as grand as say Solid and Liquid's fight on top of Rex or Snake's and Ocelot's fight on top of Outer Haven is to blame on it being you know...old.

I'm talking about Metal Gear 1 and Metal Gear 2, ****dick. Not MGS1 and MGS2.

Also,

Yeah, from MGS2 onwards convos became more slapstick than serious thoughtfood.
It was pretty self-aware in MGS1. Pretty much every conversation with Snake was on par with a generic, cheesy, and somewhat broody Super Special Secret Agent. Hell, look at every conversation with Vulcan Raven.


Also when do they mention this? I've never heard it mentioned before in MGS2 or 4.

In MGS1, you have a codec call with either Mei Ling or Naomi - can't remember which. And I think it's mentioned again by the Colonel.
All in codec calls, but still.


Did you even play it or is it just that you didn't like having to play with Raiden for the majority of the game?
I liked Raiden throughout MGS2. The only person I hated was Rose, who started drama for absolutely no reason.


pathetic bosses: In 2? myeah, sorta. In 1? absolutely not. entertaining and quite intense boss fights at times. Psycho Mantis for example was quite something, Rex's battle was something to remember, Sniper Wolf's sniper battles were also quite fun and Ocelot talking dirty whilst reloading is just golden.
In MG1, the bosses operate the same way that a Koopa would in Super Mario World. They have one "gimmick." Take Shotmaker, for example. All he could do was move left and right - as if he were on a rail - and shoot his lil' pee shooter. Another example is Dirty Duck, who stood in place and threw three dinky boomerangs.
MG2, they were more gimmicks than actual fights. Running Man, you never saw because his gimmick was that he ran fast. Jungle Feaver was a game of whack-a-mole. Red blaster was a glorified Shotmaker. And Dr. Marv was just retarded to the point that I can't really describe him well. He, like, latched onto your back, and you had to shoot RC Rockets at him.


contrived puzzles: Metal Gear has never been too big on puzzles m8.
MG1 and 2 had Newgrounds-tier puzzles. For example, you had to hatch an owl egg and have it hoot to trick the guards into thinking its night.

Well butter my balls do I feel idiotic now. One of the most colossal missreads of my online career.
I wondered what the motivation could possibly be to find MGS1 and 2 objectively and undeniably ****.

Also yes I understood those parts are horse****e. Kojima even apologized for one of the two and a specific version if I remember correctly. But I'll play em and then come up with a coherent criticism instead of mouhting of prematurely.

[humnut]

i really need to get revengence but it to expensive for a game you can finish in 4h

Check in at gamestop on black friday, I think they may be doing a sale on it. or, if you don't want to deal with the lines, i think the same sales will go back up on cyber monday. also, get it preowned, it's cheaper that way.

^Also the DLC is now free. And it was free for a while if you were a Playstation+ member.

wait, what? When were any of the MGS games free on PSN? I've been a PS+ member since they started doing that free games thing, and check it every week and I've NEVER seen Revengeance for free.

Unless, of course, it was free in the EU region.

[regnier]

just finish playing 9.03m. i have to say it a simple but really beautiful game full of emotion. it was made for the tsunami victim in japan. all the profit will go too the victim family and it just 2$ on steam. if you are an emotional person you gonna drop a few tears

eeeeeeh, I'll have to disagree to some extent. Yes this was yet another example of Kojima's-look-at-me-writing but honestly I've seen way worse. And well Snake is supposed to be this gravely, broody, "badass" seecrit aegint since he is a retired mercenary and all. Generic but likeable more or less.



In MGS1, you have a codec call with either Mei Ling or Naomi - can't remember which. And I think it's mentioned again by the Colonel.
All in codec calls, but still.
Naomi, whilst you were in the slammer I believe. You were telling her about your fistfight with Frank Jaeger in the middle of a minefield in Zanzibarland. Not the S&M party in the room where Otacon let his weeaboo show and consequently pissed himself(yeah I know it is in reverse order with the whole pissing thing but whatever)



I liked Raiden throughout MGS2. The only person I hated was Rose, who started drama for absolutely no reason.
A lot of people tend to not care or like Raiden but honestly I liked him too. Yeah he was a pansy and even greener than a freshly mowed lawn but he was really likeable. Plus his child soldier shenanigans and whatnot was a pretty good backstory which lead to some fine character development.
Rose...yeah she was a ****.
I like her somewhat but man oh man can she nag and also in the worst way possible.

You're ****ting me...
That is quite funny actually. But yeah ridiculous puzzles.

You know what this is a very good possibility let me look that up.

REPORT: just looked it up and it would seem that you yanks are **** out of luck on this one.

however The game is now for sale at 30 bucks and the DLC is, as I mentioned before, free of charge since early november.

Also in response to a sequel.
Kojima said he'd be willing to make a sequel if Rising would be successful enough. Platinum would also have to be developer since "nobody else could do it" according to him.
He would be also willing to make a game detailing Raiden's life before MGS4 as was more or less his original intention when he conceptualized Rising.
So maybe in about 2 or 3 years time we might have a sequel folks.

That's ok. Sometimes we get better games than you guys :P

[Shuiia]

Such as?

Also:
christ the bosses in MGS 3 are annoying as hell. You waltz over them but not without some goddamn annoyance. The playthroughs I saw made it all look so easy. But then again I saw those years ago.
The Pain: actually he wasn't that bad.

The Fear: poison darts, low ammo, barely enough health AND he can navigate a forrest laid with traps for food and eat it faster than I can reload. Took me a lot of tries but finally I bested him when I poisoned the bastard all of a sudden.

The End: You snooze you lose mate. sneaked up on him every time, he only used his photosynthesis once and I never got knocked out. Took a while but all in all not that tough of a battle. Felt bad beating him though because I just waited around a corner on my last assault and when he used his disappearing trick I just knocked him over and put my final tranq round in him.

The Fury: **** him and his flamethrower. He's not that hard to put down but when he loses it at almost the very start of the battle he just sets the whole place ablaze not leaving much room to navigate and to put tranq rounds in him.

Now onto the Sorrow after I molest Raiden in the locker room for a bit. After I'll lose my eye first of course.

Can't recommend this one highly enough (http://www.remar.se/daniel/iji.php) if you like old school 2D side scrolling action. One of the best freeware/independent games I've played.

http://www.remar.se/daniel/games/ijizoom.gif

Iji is an action-packed strategic platform shooter with a detailed story, large levels with multiple paths, powerful bosses and lots of secrets. There are alternate gameplay events, dialogues and scenes depending on what you do, a wealth of extras and bonus features, and seven stats to upgrade through a leveling system. Iji herself has superhuman strength and abilities, and can crack Nanotechnology, use her enemies' most devastating weapons against them, and be a pacifist or a killer - the story adapts to how you play. Soundtrack by Chris Geehan and Dan Byrne McCullhough, songs also by Tom Mauritzon and Captain Goodnight (and LifeForce, but their song was not originally recorded for Iji).

Just finished MGS3.

Man oh man what a game. Definitely gonna play it some more later on. All the Bond nods were pretty fun and the game played like a charm.

BUT

shooting guns can be a pain, since you have to firmly press the square button in order to shoot. Do it somewhat loosely and you'll just put your gun away with an asskicking to follow.

MGQ 3 will be out on december 6 YAY!!

Going through the news to see if anything interesting was actually annouced during the VGas, I was surprised to actually see two promising annoucments.

Tales from the Borderlands

COD ghost was mediocre but i had fun though.

I liked the ending of that one.

Bad guy's still alive, and drags off the main character to turn the main character into a bad guy. Left room for a sequel (which everyone KNOWS is coming) without having to randomly add in a new villian.

[Kaiju]

My time's been spent between Civ V, EU4, Minecraft and Enemy Within as of late.

It's great to see Gunbuster in as well as Unicorn. However, I'm not looking forward to Rebuild due to L, but, hey, maybe they won't bull**** in Rebuild this time.
Though I am disappointed with the cast. All things considered, they're about to go up against an intergalactic force, yet only a portion of the cast is actually set up for that stuff. Hopefully, Z3.1 focuses on finishing all of the near-finished story lines from Z2.2, and leaves Z3.2 with a larger possible roster with a more fitting cast. **** I'll be pissed if Demonbane isn't in Z3.2.

I got over 18 hours in two days, in AC4: Black Flag.

I've probably only gotten 20/30 hours in the rest of the series COMBINE.
BF is actually, what's the word?
FUN.
