i've played one of them and the used price is going to drop fast when it hits 5-6 months after release.

Wolfenstein is pretty drat good. What I've played of the first Metro game so far has been good.

Mostly I've been running away from a body horror metaphor on a space station lately. It's old school hard, modern games have coddled me. I am rusty.

Good to see custom backgrounds are inbound. I will personally probably go with a new background screenshot of one of stux's posts where he literally lies about video games.

Disney Fantasia is getting surprisingly good reviews ( and we all know how important video games reviews are), currently sitting at 80 on metacritic. Ign love it http://uk.ign.com/articles/2014/10/21/fantasia-music-evolved-review

Wolfenstein is an excellent game, i played it through on I am death incarnate first time and it was a little bit too hard, I had to cheat and YouTube how to beat the last boss. :(

His "gimmick" is that he likes the console he bought. As opposed to the posters who have made thousands of posts about a toy they will never own, obsess over the sales numbers for that toy, and apparently lie over which of the toys they own to win an argument about the toy.

Maybe he isn't the hosed up "shill" in this whole business.

Fixed that for you.


Driveclub got a half-page review in my local paper today, it got 1 start out of 4, the lowest score :'(. I was at the main electronics retailer in town this weekend and noticed they had a Bone Throne worth of PS4/Driveclub combo editions, rivaling the (now-finally-gone) Titanfall bundle thrones. Maybe Crafty works for my local paper??

New details for the November patch and still no music in the background unsnapped? Are they loving serious? One year later and it still doesn't have this most basic of features that would improve the experience greatly for a large percentage of the users and it can't be that hard to code...

Lords of the Fallen seems pretty neat, a more forgiving Souls game. I'll probably check it out at some point before Bloodborne comes out, just not immediately.

The made-by-Disney rhythm game has a single actual Disney song, "Let It Go," as paid DLC (or a pre-order bonus).

Just Dance 2015 (also out today) is :10bux: cheaper and includes that song in its base library. :psyduck:

To be fair sony have come up with an ingenious way of never letting psn go down either. They call it the 'one in one out' policy.

Maybe it'll come in December, this seems to be one of the most requested of issues they haven't resolved.

With the new backgrounds there's even more reason to be an achievement whore. Once I unlock these beauties and set them as my home screen I will know I have made it in life http://teambeyond.net/halo-master-chief-collection-achievement-images/

If you're ever unsure you can always check here:

And to give you a straight answer, it's "up" but you can't buy anything or use purchased music, because DRM on music files is still a thing in Microsoft's world.

Nah, most of it's whining. Complaining about complaining is 10 times worse so 100 posts is as bad as 1000.

That's math. You can't argue math.



Complaining about complaining about complaining is actually only a 10th as bad so I'm in the clear.
