I'm TOTALLY digging Arkham City the game is fantastic & it's a HUGE game as far as content goes. But beware the PC version has some serious "saving" issues. The game has lost numerous peoples saves because of some kind of cloud sync between Steam & GFWL, some folks had 70+ hours of game saves vanish. I had it happen to me once with about 4 hours into it. Also I had to get a new key from Steam because GFWL would not accept the one that was issued to me....Yep a TON of people have that issue too.

LA Noire is a pretty shitty port, in case anyone was wondering. I'm hoping the gameplay will make up for it but I wasn't impressed with my first go with it.

I found the game pretty enjoyable, although it gets really repetitive after awhile & some of the interrogations are damn near impossible to get right. The graphics were fine, the controls were very similar to GTA 4. The side missions were a blast but all were pretty repetitive type missions. Overall it's worth about 19.99 IMO.

I have no problem taking down choppers with a Stinger. Now if you get a really good pilot it could be pretty tough. I also try & play only on HARDCORE servers they are FAR better & balanced much more.

I would have left this statement out "Best Multiplayer Game of 2011” from MSNBC". I put more weight in places like PC Gamer, Blues News, etc. You know places that focus on games exclusively.

So they have not hit the 1 million member mark yet?

Boo hoo. Start entry level IT jobs at a higher salary and provide better benefits and/or a better workplace or hire older employees. Problem solved.

Exactly. Corporations haven't had any loyalty to workers for over 20 years now, so why should the opposite be true. Fact is these guys are in demand and they know it. Someone offers them better hours, money, and perks why the hell would they stay? Why can't this CIO match or beat the offer? His whole spiel comes off as some dinosaur who doesn't grasp why young people don't want to work 24/7 for slave wages. The problem here isn't the techies, it's the CIO.

Any why the hell is Jobs getting a Grammy for the ipod and itunes? Did the Napster guy get a Grammy? MP3 players were around for 6 years before the ipod! Apple's "innovations" amount to the Japanese concept of just knocking of other peoples stuff with a slick marketing campaign.

Amen!!

The rumor is that the Steam sale starts tomorrow anyone have an info?

I'm personally hoping we get a deal on Skyrim & I'll pick it up. I have no issue paying retail for it, I know its worth it. I just have so much going on right now that I'm playing.

BF3 (Tons of it! I'm in a league & it takes a lot of my time)
L.A. Noire (About half way through it & enjoying it)
Dead Island (Just started it, seems "ok")
DCS:A-10 (LOVE it, but I'll need months to devote to this one)

I'm looking forward to playing this but I'll stand by my 6 month rule for all MMO's. After 6 months the game is balanced, patched, stable, more content, etc. etc.

I bought BF3 for the 360 for like 5.00 (coupon and on sale for turkey day) but only got the vanilla version. I don't think I will play it much on console to justify the expansion pack....bummed I didn't get an LE version....

I can't think of any reason WHY you would buy this game on 360?? This type of game is all about the PC & its granular controls, better graphics, larger community, etc...etc.

Probably because the ones working on Origin and the ones working on BF3 and the ones working on the VOIP via battlelog (Sonar or whatever they call it) were different teams in different places.

I am guessing they want to, at some point, integrate the whole battelog style functionality directly into origin so that they can bind games to that service and create a game-spanning community functionality. If they want to add it now to BF3 they probably gonna have to change both BF3 and Battlelog fundamentally...

That actually makes sense, & is a good post.
