I need new shit, I just finished Mass Effect again for the gillionth time and want to go back and play it all over again.

It's the modern day Evangelion.

+ Grasshopper
- violenceindarkplace.wmv
+ skateboarding grim reaper
- Gungho (known for mmo hosting and mobile games)
- integrated multi-player
+ made from the skeletal remains of Lily Bergamo
- scrapped the aesthetic of Lily Bergamo

I can't tell if this is shaping up for cult-fame or to be forgotten as Grasshoppers most generic game.

SMASH BROS FOR WII U, BRO

I'm really not a Console gamer anymore, i've been using a PC and portable consoles for the past 4-5 years.

But I am really interested in this beauty.


I'll happily take my Vita over my ps3 or even a ps4 anyday, all the Sony goodness without having to update your console on a daily basis. My PC plays new games on Ultra at 1440p so I don't need a new console, this is perfectly priced so I can play my PS1 and Vita games on a tiny set top box. This should succeed, it has everything it needs to - unless Sony cocks it up... which is probable.

EDIT:
Ooh! Oohhh!



I swear, Watch Dogs looks and plays so much smoother now. No exaggeration, can finally play on Ultra with no stuttering.

PVP on Dark Souls 2 is just too laggy to enjoy for me

Love getting backstabbed while it looks like the opponent is 15 feet away from me...

Sounds just like DS1!
I never PVPed, shit was always a joke, or at least it was on PC. It was always some level 15 dude who was on NG+9 or something and had fully maxed-out everything invading me.
Only times I ever won were when I ran around a corner and kicked someone off an edge, or when I dressed up as a Silver Knight and sat there long enough for them to leave

I hated parrying in that game, too. The animation and parry effect aren't synchronized.

i liked Watch Dogs through the first mission till i realized it's a more interesting premised GTA.

i fucking hate GTA.

Wolfenstein New Order was good shtuff. they made killing Nazis fun again! and there's a few parts that made me sad butts and shiver tear up guy.

I probably despise GTA more than any other AAA title. I don't like the driving in WD, but it's playstyles come straight from Splinter Cell and Far Cry so I have more fun clearing Gang Hideouts.

Yeah it doesn't help that I suck either. The single player and coop is still great thought, on NG+ and had my first chariot boss bullshit death

[LOCOPELAND]

Dude, the Chariot on NG+ is so. fucking. stupid. There's a good strategy for that fight, though. Alluring Skulls, ftw.

[Hyphen Nation]

I cannot wait for The Division

Got a few hours into Wolfenstein, but have returned to Don't Starve.

[Andrew]

Really hoping to get Wolfenstein on the steam sale. I'd buy it new, but I can't really afford to spend $75 au on the damn game.

Steam sales!!

[jfrey]

Anyone else playing Heroes of the Storm? It's fun, but I don't think it can compare to Dota 2.
