I hated when a cougar comes out of no where and kills a nice horse you just found.

I think the internet is blaming it on anonymous.

No that's what they get (therefore, what WE get :rolleyes:) for getting too liberal with their free service by allowing open source Linux and "Rebug" on their servers. :/

Oh well as a PS3 :fanboy: I'll tough it out and be grateful for the security updates as long as it doesn't hinder the connection speeds.

I am now playing Socom 4: Us Navy Seals single player. :drunk:

Considering a CRPG with my new fat rig but what's their to choose from? Arcania sucked shit in the end, I've stomped New Vegas many times, and Bioware games are painfully overrated.

How's Two Worlds 2?

I played Two Worlds 2 for a couple of hours until the console-y feeling killed it off for me completely. Honestly, I TRIED to like that game, but for some reason I get an inherent revolting feeling when playing anything that was designed for the console.

Then you turn it off and keep playing, you little bitch.

The real reason why you shouldn't play FME is the FUBAR controls. Four separate Fire buttons? Fuck you.

A game called being fucked up on meth. I don't know which is more badass heroin or meth but damn does this sink nice and shiny.

oritegames I just finished Uncharted 1 and 2. you know them single player types of games that happen when douche hackers decide to fuck over billions and trillions of people and the like.

They're both pretty hardcore but the second one was more interesting to look at you know like that hot chick who decides to bring an even hotter friend to the next party or something like that i guess so.

The grand finale:

AoD combat demo #3. I could play this friggin thing all day and all dayer because it's just so friggin cool and random you never know when you're gonna get your ass handed to you or score a good hit, even after you beat it ten thousand and thirty two or three times. Some good rolls and RPG mechanics in there. Let's just hope the entire package delivers as such eh :batting eyelashes:

PS If I made a cool game I wouldn't let anyone else play it.

You know, the auto-aim's there for a reason. Reason being mouse aiming is complete shit.

Then you only mount 2 weapons and keep playing, you little bitch.

No, it's there because it's a console port and pads suck ass at everything. Jesus.

Playing Sigerous Mod on Call of Pripyat, about thirty hours into it, really enjoying it so far.

Well excuse me for thinking they were there because whoever made the port realized that the mouse aiming in the game was shit, rather than assuming they'd just forgotten it.

Point still being that having auto-aim in the options menu of a PC game is a pretty good indicator that whatever you're playing is going to turn out to be shit.

Europa Universalis III: Divine Wind, but I only play here and there, so I'm somewhere around ~1500, give or take, recently unified Japan, eyeing Korean and Ming land.

Started Ze Witzscher 2: The Sausage of Kings. Kinda disappointed so far.

Very "gamey". Single clicks to "do stuff" (climb ladders, jump over walls), fucking QTEs up the backpipe, no more different combat styles, level ups are messed up, frustratingly hard start, playing on 4:3 gets you some huge bars (game's 16:9 only), the direction is a bit crass (every shot looks like it's out of a Michael Bay movie), ugh.

What's worse is that it's taking cues from console games. First 2 hours are spent running through small linear maps from cutscene to cutscene with all these annoying set pieces thrown at you every 5 fucking seconds. But I suppose the "YEAH AWSUM" crowd'll love that.

Pros so far are the voice acting (apart from Triss who sounds like an annoying 16y-o american who you just want to drown everytime she opens her fucking mouth), the graphics (actually, it's more the design than the engine itself, the asscreed engine did a better job with crowds as far as I can tell, but the fuck do I know, I'm running this way under spec and either way this DOES look good) and the inventory / potion brewing got a much needed overhaul (but then why can't I see my equipped items when I'm at the shop?).

It's not so far removed that you'd think it to be a buttraping of the original, I certainly welcome it not being so fucking slow, I just wish it wasn't so "current gen".
