As for the boyfriend part... I want another gamer boyfriend. My ex was one of those types that really liked watching me play cause they couldn't play the games but really liked the story (Mass Effect and Red Dead Redemption), and became a 4 box EQ player after I introduced him to it (yeah didn't see that one coming).
I think there's a surfeit of gamer boyfriends. Its the gamer girlfriends that there's a shortage of

Yeah but it's finding one that's actually in shape, masculine, and has no interest in ever going into a Pottery Barn that I'm looking for. Oh and not afraid of playing Fruit Ninja (or any Kinect game) while intoxicated and in front of others lol.

What liberties are they taking with the history?

Cutter the entire series is if pretty sci-fi, history being distorted is the least of the worries.


While I have the 360 version, so far I like it. Not very far into the game, but I'm really enjoying the sea combat, but overall the combat has been changed a bit over the easy mode of the previous games.

Dark Souls for PC on Amazon: $15.

Dooo it.

Much as I'd like to I've heard it's just a horrendous port. Even on Steam there's a disclaimer saying you should be playing with a console controller. I seem to recall the devs saying they didn't really care about PC and it was going to be a half-assed port at best. It's hard to want to reward that sort of attitude with a sale.

Anyway, how is Dishonored? Seriously? Is is any good? What's it like? Thief? Bioshock? Is it really consolized?

I'm enjoying it even though I'm not very far into it. Has a pretty cliche starting story, and no self shadow, and I'm not sure I'm thrilled about 10 item inventory being set to a wheel (then again not sure if I can setup hot keys), but so far so good. If anything it's making me more interested in Bioshock Infinite.

Ok trying for a non-kill game in Dishonored, but I have 1 MAJOR gripe. No player shadow. It's a huge pet peeve of mine and I don't understand why it wasn't implemented.

Why is that a pet peeve? No wonder you can't get a boyfriend. I bet you're one of those 'Please don't squeeze the toothpaste from the middle' types aren't you?



They'd have to climb over the mountain of underwear and socks in the bathroom to get to the toothpaste first! And my only peeve about toothpaste is leaving the 'toothpaste boogers' at the opening especially if it has a flip open lid.

Ok is it me or are the Steam Flash Sale timers going nuts? It was set so 1 set had 1 time, and the other the same, but earlier today it was all sorts of nuts and the Fable 3 sale had 2 hours to go is now back up over 3 1/2 hours.

lol. fuck these newer generation games.

back in the day, in the 90s, quake 1 was released and had a console and gave you all the commands you could ever want to configure it. guess what one of those commands was? yup. fov.

people used fov 90, 100, 110, and 120. whatever they wanted.

go fuck yourselves, next-gen developers.

Um 'back in the day' Quake was the ONLY game that had this command and people didn't even know about all the commands till at least a year later.

First World Problems. Bitching about shit just because they can bitch about it.

You really have faith in Molyneux to make anything good anymore? I sure as shit don't, troop. You feel me, dog?
Fable 1 and 2 were excellent games. Then 3 just sorta shit itself, and waddled over to a corner and sat in it.

I'm surprised that hasn't been "Fox'd" already.

Everything I wanted to see in the video was there. Turrets, Door Hacking, Door Welding, I'm sold, here is my money.

How and why is this guy hurting for funding $$$? In the same vein as "Why does God need a spaceship?".
"Jim what are you doing?" and it was "What does God need with a starship?"

Lionhead started off as a good thing but Microsoft bought Lionhead and turned out nothing but Fable games, which is why Peter left.

Granted Halo would be perfect for a Planetside type of gameplay, I just don't see it working.

And they already tried it once before.


Hence the 'have canceled them' comment. Sides that Halo MMO was (at least by appearance a WoW type MMO)

Why would they even attempt a MMO? Microsoft has shut down every MMO they have attempted, and on a console made 1 attempt and shut it down. Granted Halo would be perfect for a Planetside type of gameplay, I just don't see it working.

No Kool-Aid needed Blue. Microsoft needed a number 1 console selling piece of software and Halo was it. Halo brought FPS'ers to the consoles in a way that no one could do, along with online/multiplayer gaming for consoles.
