im considering it. im super fucking stoked on new core games later this year.

I'm excited too, but I thought for sure we'd get a Z first.

[backwardsvoyager]

Yeah...I fucked up and didn't preorder....nowhere in town has them and they're sold out everywhere within driving distance.

Which would be fine if it was players...but it's not. It's assholes that bought them to turn around and sell for $100-250 more than what they paid....soooo pissed off...

Gamers are worse with that than pedal gougers, there are still people around here trying to flip the 25th anniversary zelda 3DS for $1500
Or they buy the limited edition games and split them up selling the boxes and little plastic accessories for like $50 a pop. I don't fucking get it at all.

[CyaNitrate]

I FOUND ONE! The last one at Target. Oh man. Pumped!

But yeah...gougers suck. I mean, I get it...supply and demand, make easy money. But I think it's shady. There is a dude trying to sell a Gameboy Advance SP with the limited NES graphics for $150. Now, while that's not *as* bad, you can get a current system for that.

I've been walking this strip of grass for two hours, trying to catch an Abra.
I've got no Abra to show, but my Jigglypuff, Deathwish, is buff as hell from pounding Weedles.

i was hoping for Z or Emerald as well. oh well.

i bought yellow. renewed my PokeBank and bought Metroid II as well. very happy.

I'll be needing you's guys' friend codes once I finish this system transfer. Also, don't forget to get your Celebi in XY and/or ORAS.

Am currently nerding it up with Card Hunter on a casual basis.
Petty cutefor a free to play.
Sorted all my hard drive issues out last night though, so it's back to grinding through Fallout for me.
Not sure if I should reinstall my mod packs though, seems like Bethesda may make some of that stuff redundant with the new bits coming out.

Haha, Gears of War - only for Windows 10

Bravo.

"its not that bad"


Ayy lmao

I don't know, I was expecting the PS4 Dishonored version to be a bit higher quality. I'm not a framerate whore like every other gamer on the internet is now but it does feel a little janky. The $20 that I spent is worthwhile, because the game is great and It's still better than Thief.

I still want a Corvo mask though, it's badass.

[Iommic Pope]

I didn't get into Dishonoured, but Corvo and the whole concept and aesthetic were fucking bad ass.

[UglyCasanova]

Dishonored was a masterpiece.

[SecretMachine]

Agreed. Pity it was so short. Looking forward to Dishonoured 2 though.

[CyaNitrate]

It was really good. I liked everything about it

[Wes Mantooth]

Dishonred is the shit.

I think higher framerates are fairly noticeable once you've played on them for a bit. After upgrading my PC with a new GTX980ti and adding a 1440p 144hz G-Sync monitor I'm keenly aware of how much smoother everything is on my PC as opposed to my PS4. That said, it doesn't really affect how much I enjoy a game, it's just an added bonus.

Haven't really found a game to get sucked in to, should probably really delve in to the Witcher 3 but just get frustrated that it doesn't play like Bloodborne and I'm just not in to all of the alchemy and crafting options and so forth.

I don't think there are a lot of soccer fans on here but anyone play FIFA16? My friends and I love playing eachother but EA completely fucked it this year with all of the bullshit scripting, it's infuriating when a game is turned in to nothing more than a passive ride through a match with no real control over it for either player.
