When my Playstation 4 is installing something, I just go into rest mode and check on it every now and then with Remote Play or turning it on. I don't nurse it for 5 hours because I've got better stuff to do than waste time optimizing my download speeds.

I download stuff from the web store while I'm at work and it's usually done when I get home.

HGH posted:Jennifer Hale is an extremely talented VA and she nails both serious and comical scenes, but there's this bizarre quality that maleShep has that just makes most of what he says sound weirdly comical. Combined with his default face it gives off this weird B-movie feeling. I think Mark Meer gradually improved as the series went on but Hale was always really good, mostly because she already had a ton of professional experience before Mass Effect. I think Meer was mostly known as a stand-up comedian before being cast as Shepard, which explains how he tends to land comedic responses better than dramatic ones. I think what made Hale great is that she was always able to differentiate both Paragon and Renegade responses while also not coming off like a total lunatic, which was a difficult task to accomplish when you consider how totally bipolar some of the dialogue options were.

Snak posted:A big smasher on a conveyer belt came down on my head and killed me in one hit. I was really surprised that it killed me because enemies do almost no damage to me at this point. Like I was just walking through the level and they hid a smasher behind a puff of steam in the foreground and I died out of nowhere. I've been wondering if I'm getting old man eyes, or has there been some difference in visual design that you really need a bigass TV or to sit close to make poo poo out now? I'm on the same not-so-great 40" TV that seemed pretty big when I got it during the 360/PS3 generation, but now I'm no joke putting down some games till a planned summer nice TV purchase cause sitting ~7-8 ft. away from this one I just can't make poo poo out. E.g. Caladrius Blaze, Overcooked (mostly), old Lego Harry Potter games are fine, but new Lego games and kind of in Bloodborne things on the screen can be too small or cluttered to clearly make out.

I'm feeling lucky that both I don't know what Blasto is (or was) and wasn't interested at all in ME:A when I loved ME 1 and 2 (still have to play 3).

Mass Effect 3 has probably the moments I love the most about the entire series and also the moments I loathe the most. It's a maddeningly uneven game in that way, but it's totally worth the experience if you're at all invested in the first two games.

I might just run again ME2 with the ME1 save game creator (if that thing is still around) on PC, so I can play ME3 wich I purchased two years ago for 7€ on Origin. I don't even remember that I owned it but hey, one of the hundreds of games I purchased and forgot about it.

ME3 was still pretty active on PC when I went back to it a couple months ago. There's probably still some solid games to be had on consoles too, although I wouldn't know for sure.

I disagree with most of this tbh it's at best mediocre and at worst the low point of the series (barring andromeda, which I know nothing about)

hey did a recent update break something? I idled on the home menu for a few minutes while doing something else and suddenly it started stuttering by an insane amount, taking like 10 seconds to respond to my inputs, and then when I turned the system off to let it stop making GBS threads itself it froze before finally turning off a minute later. turned it back on and it was fine. seems like maybe it was a memory leak or something? did it just have a violent negative reaction to me putting in the Nier Automata disc? what's the deal? should probably mention it's a vanilla PS4, 500GB EDIT: Nier Automata disc got spit out saying "Data is corrupted", but then I put it back in and it worked fine. Uh...ok? Augus fucked around with this message at 22:21 on Mar 20, 2017 |

kirbysuperstar posted:No, they're seperate. It's pretty rare for an FPS to be cross-platform (what was the last one, Shadowrun?) You probably wouldn't want it to be anyway. Mouse + Keyboard in a game like Titanfall 2 would wipe the floor with players using a controller.

Has there ever been a cross console game? I know there has been ultra rare PC/console cross platform games but has there ever been something where you could play PS with Xbox?

I think it had a ton of prerelease hype too, pretty sure it was even on the cover of Next Generation and was supposed to be the (or at least a) next big thing. The unrelated Blasto character in Mass Effect was funny and good.

Final Fantasy 11 could be played on 360 and PS2 and I think server were completely platform independent. That would be the only time I could think of.
