just get destiny if you want good shootman mechanics made by the guys who perfected the console way

god i hope not.

in my experience, nathan fillion with anything space-related was always absolutely awesome. but i've had childhood dreams crushed before.

its a mystery :(

so much story was cut before destiny launched - there are cinematics in trailers that never made it live, like the brother meeting you on earth

im glad they got things back on track tho, everything makes (somewhat) sense in TTK

EDIT: TTK is also the Nathan Fillion show, so i hope you like his voice

i love nathan fillion

also destiny has really good gunplay but man it tries a little bit too hard to be ~mysterious~ sometimes

hello games thread did you know about the new xbox controller because i certainly didnt






this loving thing is $150. that's kinda nuts. at least it comes with a carrying case. If you want to use it on PC they will be selling an extra adapter, even if you already have Bluetooth (because gently caress you that's why)

it's a customizable controller for people insanely in to competitive call of duty, who are already paying ~$150 for unofficial controllers with those features. tbh it's cool that MS is offering something like that, and the price is absolutely normal for what it is.

i thought the conch shell & pig head were pretty on-the-nose but then i remembered that this is mgs

if this were any prior mgs game you'd get an hour long conversation about the plots of lord of the flies & 1984 when you saved your game. now instead you'll just stumble on two guys chatting about it and then they're interrupted by your punches

I was pretty much 99% nonlethal (outside of blowing up tanks/apcs/helis) until the mission where you have to save the child soldiers. It was just way easier (and more cathartic) to pull out the LMG and go to town on that one.

if I didnt have the gold headset i would have too - but not gonna dip on that, two controllers is fine, i can use the other for my PC

its expensive again anyways, i think like $100+ CAD

i got it on sale when it was like $59 or 69. i forget

but yeah man, its aesthetically super pleasing - i love this colour scheme

i think i wasn't posting much then, there was a bunch of dumb nintendo stuff filling up page after page. i didn't pay any attention to e3 this year, maybe it's just me

i would maybe pay like $90 for a completely customizable controller but $180 is bonkers

Basically it's like your assault rifles but with more stopping power and much deeper ammo pool overall. If you're just going to shoot the piss out of a bunch of people it's pretty useful; you can also shoot down helis with enough sustained fire.

And if you burst fire you can aim down the sights and still be reasonably accurate. If I'm rolling loud I tend to take the Riot SMG and an LMG. Hose down people with the SMG when I want to be loud non-lethal, then out comes the LMG when there's too many people to bother messing with and the Stun Arm isn't charged.

it also feels a little heavier than the standard black controller
yeah, theyre p expensive and not worth it for on the ear headphones
