My only complaint of RE7 is that the enemy variety is a step down from 4-6 which makes it feel like kind of a slog near the end, but otherwise the game is outstanding. Also we get two new DLCs in December.

Anyway, apparently since yesterday EA removed the refund button from the Battlefront 2 page lol. You can still refund via customer service but they obviously had to react to make it a bit harder. I wonder how many refunded copies prompted that decision.

I will never buy another EA game until they bring back "EA Games - Challenge Everything" Taking a stand for the issues that matter.

Tuxedo Catfish posted:That's about a dollar a minute. The Kara no Kyoukai boxed set was at one point $948 for 590 minutes of animation. It may actually be more expensive now. When the heck has it ever been that expensive? I paid 350$ for it when I was in Japan (which was about the same price to have it imported through rightstuf for the short period they had it available). That was brand new in a anime/anime merch store. That must be some ridiculous eBay ask.

Jay Rust posted:Haven’t heard much about Resident Evil 7 for a long time, does it stand the test of time? I liked the game my first time through and much less the second. There's too many unskippable scenes and forced animation segments. It was the opposite with RE6 where I didn't like it as first but grew to enjoy it as a co-op action game.

I still say the best "Worst but ultimately inoffensive" thing EA has ever done (meaning the decision like, didn't cost anyone jobs or anything) was commission a new James Bond game with Goldeneye in the title even though the plot of the game had nothing to do with the events from the actual movie or said orbital weapon, but was about a new character you play as who literally had a golden eye. Because I guess, I'm not sure but I guess at the time that time in 2004 the name Goldeneye was more valuable than the actual James Bond name.

Saint Freak posted:You missed my favorite one though. The name change for LIMP BIZKIT is...."Flaccid Pancake". That's because I was only listing stuff from the anime  If we were including things past part 4 I'd have to include Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap getting changed into Filthy Acts At A Reasonable Price. I would have included Earth, Wind, and Fire being changed to Terra Ventus and Boy II Man being changed into Boy Man Man but I can't actually remember if either of those had their names shouted out in the show.

He mostly just says D4C but they've named a few of his attacks or whatever Filthy Acts At A Reasonable Price and listed D4C as some mysterious thing nobody knows the meaning of, similar to the treatment FF got where they just say it's a mysterious abbreviation and nobody knows what it means even though it stands for Foo Fighters.

FirstAidKite posted:Remind me what your review system is again please. F is the fun I had. It is divorced a little for how the game is. For example, a game might be bad technically but I had a lot of fun with it. Summarily, a game I recognise might be good and liked by a lot of people but I did not like it at all, so the G number will be higher. PUBG seemed to be a janky mess in all ways, I crashed on first load, I crashed during a match, the screen frazzled when I switched between view modes and when it did work there was a lot of walking around. Being early access means I can never assign a G value higher than 1 because it is due to change so much. Unless PUBG is out of early access, in which case goodness! Mostly I try to be unbiased with my G value because the F part is my subjective nature So, a G4F1 game for me is Halo. I dislike it immensely. I might even go as far to say it is my most hated game. However, I can see it did a lot to change the face of gaming. Popularising the idea of an FPS on a console, the network matches online through stable console, and caused the popularity of one of my previous favourite consoles, The Xbox. I still hated it.

Hooray, I finished the Bat Batman™ (Origins). Gonna steal VG's system here and call it a G3F4. As an Arkham series game they did some weird stuff, there's a big change in long-term gameplay focus despite being mostly the same game from moment to moment, which is a bit weird. There's a lot of focus on gaining XP through fighting random dudes, where the other Arkham games tended to give you much bigger bonuses for discovering secrets by comparison. The upgrades are also weirdly paced, which is a common complaint, but it seems they really expected you to fight every random group of dudes you come across, since otherwise the city's just too drat big. The story is kind of dumb, and mostly just there rather than anything interesting happening, but it does have its moments. Most of the VAs are different from the other Arkham games too, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but both Batman and the Joker sound like they're just trying to imitate Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill instead of doing their own thing. Riddler puzzles in this one are just as prolific, but... more boring? I enjoyed doing them all in Asylum, City, and Knight, but in Origins I kind of can't bring myself to care. Probably coming across kind of harsh here, but complaining aside, it feels like reading a Batman comic that's just good, but not great. All the Batman-y bits are there, combat's just as fun as the others if a little janky due to the new additions (shock gloves are fun but throw off the combat flow), but it's not one I can see myself regularly going through like the other three. Easy recommendation for a cheap thrill though, same day I got my copy for a straight trade I found it in the bargain bin at Family Dollar for five bucks too.
