Word on the street is that Titanfall 2 owns, anybody played it? I still have BF1 to play so I don't know why I'm asking but hey.

It does own. SP is short but it's up there with Do4m's campaign and does a lot of fun, varied stuff. Much more Half Life/Portal than COD. And multiplayer is even better than the first game's, imo and has a lot of new toys to play with.

Hey Games, we should have a screenshot thread again, imo. I won`t make it though, I`m more of an Ideas Guy.

Because I won't buy EA's Boring Gimmick 2, and Generic Competitive Shooter with a war history twist? My time and money are better spent elsewhere. At best I would rather play Shadow Warrior 2 and want to.

If only more games used Titanfall 2's gimmick of "being really loving good."

So is there a hard cutoff age for knowing or caring about Pokemon? It was my everything as a kid, but I'm listening to an animation episode of We Hate Movies where they're talking about an episode from the show and they barely even know that it was a game first, and only have the slightest inkling of what a Pokeman even is. The WHM guys are only about 5 years older than me, 32 or 33, but they're completely ignorant about something I'd always assumed had fully entered the collective unconsciousness.

It's really good. Pc version leaves something to be desired but they weren't joking when they said "Dishonored, but better".

Here's a literal transcription of a conversation between two guards in dishonoured 1:

"Boy, the guy Corvo was sent to kill sure is eeeeeevil, isn't he?"
"Yup!"
"Yikes!"

Wow!

Should we gather for whiskey and cigars tonight?

Yes, I believe so.

Good to hear you're enjoying it! IMO Twin Peaks goes downhill after the murderer reveal not only because of the big secret being out but because of the overall quality of the writing going down. However even then it's still a really enjoyable series if you have a soft spot for small-town shenaningas (I do). It does come back it its former glory closer to the end.

I still liked it because it's still bizarre as hell but yeah, there's a hard turn there. I'm probably the only person who doesn't hate the Windom Earle stuff though, but who on earth could care about James Hurley? It's got a hell of an ending though, and I really need to watch FWwM one of these days.

Yeah, gently caress that poo poo. It also automatically turns on streaming functionality when you launch a game too. Oh yeah, are their latest drivers still broken or have they fixed them yet?

Re: AAA sales, I've heard part of it is that companies are now factoring in the long-tail a lot more than first week nowadays so maybe not all doom & gloom.

Between Brigador going more than 50% off and Infinifactory being on the BTA tier of the Humble Bundle this has been a hell of a month for indie devs who stubbornly swore they'd never, ever go on sale crumbling in record time.

Yeah! gently caress 'em!

These sales are killing me. In the last week I've grabbed Titanfall 2, AC: Syndicate, Mad Max, XCom 2, Jackbox Party Pack 3, Jazzpunk, and Trackmania Turbo, and that's just for the PS4 and to fill the gap until FFXV. I grabbed Brigador(?) on Steam and.that seems like good fun once I wrap my mind around the controls. Is it worth learning the game pad controls for it, or is m&kb fine?

It's best played on m&kb using default tank controls, if you can get used to it.

Looks like Titanfall 2's gonna be having a free trial in a couple days, I encourage anyone who hasn't already to try the game out.
