Last night in the Witcher, Geralt discussed wihhis ex that he was nailing her friend for a year, when he had amnesia. He used this as an excuse and got teleported over a lake to fall a long distance. This was followed by a long night of drinking and cards with his friends. Witcher 3 owns.

I don't remember buying Child of Light but I'm playing it now and it seems like it's Castlevania but with turn-based battles which seems pretty cool.

Also I was following the wrong chat thread this entire time :(

Is the Wild Arms series good? Because I just found 3,4, and 5 at gamestop, this a day after purchasing Nier and some Japanese Saturn game I can't read the title too but it's an anime game.

Also i got the third Ar Tornelico game for the PS3 and Stella Deus

I've always heard 3 is a genuinely good game, though I haven't gotten around to playing it. 4 and 5 aren't very good though.

I just bought a pc and am having an awful conundrum. At first my gpu was poo poo and I couldn't comfortably run anything pretty with out it looking like poo poo and getting 10-15 fps, but now I can max games out and get a solid 50fps (new games even) after upgrading my gpu. Anyway this has nothing to do with it other than my pc is beautiful

Risen is a really fun game, skyforge is a really fun game, and the witcher 1 is a game I've been trying to beat for nearly 8 years (poo poo always comes up, whether I get super busy then don't play for awhile then have to reformat. Well its almost always this one, though last attempt my computer literally just stopped working and I went with out for 3 years). Also I refuse to loving play the witcher 2 or 3 till I've beaten 1. Why are there so many games I want to play when I have so little time :(

Gaming is a madness

gaming should be an escape from anxiety and worldly concerns although it can exacerbate and channel obsessive behavior and guilt in some people. as in all things a short break and sunshine can help ease these symptoms in some cases.

There's no easy way to say this, so I'm just going to get it over with. We've checked with numerous experts and they all agree that there's absolutely no doubt. Your taint has been reaped. You might ask yourself what you did to deserve this, or if there was anything you could have done differently to prevent it and I want you to know it's not your fault. Taints are reaped every single day, no matter how aggressively you guarded yours it was only a matter of time before this happened.

Were the hell do you live were coke is sold in increments of pennies? Or even in 30$ increments.

the smallest amount of coke i've ever seen someone buy is $80

but then i've only ever worked with/been friends with/been in bands with people who did good coke

which is also why i've never once paid for it, like, it's pretty fuckin good, i ain't lie, but like, for the price? naw, naw, hell nah gimme 4 Ferraris which is enough for me and my girl both to be totally nutted for about 7 hours whereas $80 worth of coke would be enough for like, 2 hours and then we'd have headaches

The original Total Recall game was so crappy that the publisher refused to buy ads on EGM after they gave it a bad review and made fun of it and it continued to be a running gag for the next 20 years of the magazine's life. So that's a hell of a pedigree right there.

I remember that one. Whenever you beat a boss, both of you would sit down for tea and I remember a skeleton butler would bring it out. That was probably the only good thing about it.

I feel like the 8 Eyes game was like that Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde game, where it barely even resembles a game and it's clear the people making it hadn't even figured out what were, like, satisfying controls yet (despite only having 4 buttons counting Start and Select)

You wanna play an even worse game?

Try playing Fox's Peter Pan and the Pirates. You can't tell the backgrounds from the foreground meaning you will die routinely because there is no logic or reason to what is a platform and whats not. Sometimes a background object is able to be stood on, sometimes the same object is really part of the background and is therefore unable to be stood on.

Now I have beaten the NES teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game and that was an enjoyable experience compared to that.
