SiKboy posted:Yeah, absolutely. I play a bit of multiplayer sometimes (nothing for 6 months, then something that catches my eye solidly for a month, then nothing again), so I have never bought a game for its multiplayer, always single player with added multi an occasional bonus (although far outweighed by the times that I wish they had spent the time/resources they wasted on multiplayer which is essentially dead after a month on sharpening or lengthening the single player experience). I'm a dedicated Nintendo handheld guy and even then the only games I buy new are Pokemon and Mario and everything else I pretty much wait on till it gets used. But I grew up playing Doom, MechWarrior 2, Quake. I'd certainly wanna pick up the Marvel Vs Capcom stuff that came out on 360 and Arkam Asylum looks pretty good as well. I'm not completely against sports games but most of them that I've played seem to have convoluted controls, but that could also be because I'm not playing them enough to learn it. I also liked Katamari Damacy when it came out on the PS2 and my understanding was the sequel was a 360 exclusive, I think.

Yeah, if you liked Katamari Damacy then you'll definitely want to get Beautiful Katamari, I played the poo poo out of that game. I'm not sure about now but when I got it a couple of years ago, the GOD version was the cheapest I could find at $20. I recall people on the internet raged about it when it first came out because of all the ~*~on disc DLC~*~ but they're only a dollar each and there's 5 or 6 of them. I thought it was a pretty complete game without them anyway.

The other DLC for the game just unlocks some of the Cousins early and is completely worthless.

Just finished playing The Knife of Dunwall DLC for Dishonored. What a great game and this DLC for $5 was totally worth it. I also picked up Brigmore Witches to play through later. I really want to go back back and attempt Ghost/Clean Hands playthroughs on the entire game but that seems pretty daunting!

Was that Deadpool game any good? I don't remember hearing anything about it when it came out. Also, seeing that Mark of the Ninja DLC makes me realize I never went back and finished the game. I got to the last level and was distracted by something else. The DLC might inspire me to go back.

I was excited about 50% off Rayman Legends until I saw that that's still $30 :/ Guess I'll hold out for the winter sale on Steam, since they've already had it on sale for less than that. Dragon's Dogma I've wanted to play for a while though, think I might jump on that one.

If any of you decide to buy Diablo 3 on Black Friday, you should be made aware that it looks like Blizzard has no plans to release Reaper of Souls for the 360/ps3 versions. Just next-gen.

If any of you have the PC version too, and you haven't been keeping up to date on what has been happening, patch 2.0 goes up on the PTR by the end of the year and adds many of the features that make the console version so good, plus a bunch of other really cool stuff like adventure mode, which lets you bypass the storyline.

I know I'm like, a year late with this, but just finished The Walking Dead and seriously holy poo poo! I mean the 'game' part of the game is fairly weak but I don't think I've ever been so sucked into the story, some of the choices were really tough. Season 2 launches next month right?

There is no AH in the console version and Blizzard is axing the AH from the PC version. Drop rates and levels have been modified to account for that. Playing solo I've reached Master III (Monster 5-6 equivalent) and doing some hellacious damage. The game plays much better than the PC version even when you're playing by yourself.

So I just now got around to play the demo for Asura's Wrath, and, well, what the gently caress? How did I miss this so completely? Is the rest of the game as amazingly over-the-top ridiculous as the demo fights?

# ? Nov 26, 2013 20:25 |

Yes, but a lot of people don't like it as there's not a whole lot that you actually do. The combat never gets deeper than it does in those fights and the fights are widely separated by long QTE sequences and equally shallow rail shooting. If you want a really substantial, polished brawler that also has a ton of crazy poo poo constantly happening around you, play Bayonetta or Revengeance.

Double Fine is rereleasing Psychonauts, Costume Quest, and Stacking on disc at retail next year: http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/130022-Double-Fine-Reclaims-Costume-Quest-and-StackingEscapist posted:"I am pleased that we have regained full control over Costume Quest and Stacking, following a daring and top-secret midnight raid on the Nordic Games headquarters in Vienna," Schafer said in a statement. Terms of the deal weren't revealed, but Nordic CEO Lars Wingefors suggested that it was in fact an amicable arrangement. "I feel compelled to point out that we were happy to transfer distribution rights for Costume Quest and Stacking back to Double Fine in an entirely non-secretive and heist-free manner," he said.

So I should probably play through Psychonauts when that re-release comes out, right? I've been hearing goons praise the game for years, but I only played the demo of it on PC, never the full game. I don't even really remember if I liked the demo or not anymore, honestly. 2005 seems like so long ago. I frequently see it on Steam sales for less than $10, though, so maybe I should just buy it on PC.
