spoiler about final fantasy x novel

Tidus explodes

I heard about that, but it makes no sense cause of that extra part in the X-2 remastered that they put in, which if that did happen before X-2 that will make me hate Yuna even more.

better than uncharted(lol). I like the sniper personally. A proper risk/reward weapon. Also getting a headshot with it is one of the most satisfying things I've yet experienced in gaming.

Why did I not play the swapper before? To think I would never have looked twice at this if I didn't get a review copy.

Swapper? Not familiar with that.

So usually I'm asleep by now, but I appear to have a strange case of insomnia tonight, not sure if anyone else is having this same problem.

While I admit that move looks cool, I prefer Raichu over Pikachu, and even then that one's not really on my favorites list. Lanturn's where its at, love the water/electric combo.

@illmatic87: On a typical run, how much gold do you get?

Depends on the class I get rolled with.

I usually scour a minimum 600g with a Barbarian King/Queen or Paladin.

I can manage similar numbers with a Shinobi, but luck plays a big part as Shinobis are great vs enemies, but I havent got used to platforming with its increased movement speed. I do have better success with a Shinobi in the Forest Zone, but I cant seem to manage to get far in there so far.

I barely get much with a Knave or Archmage.

@illmatic87: I have a bit of an excuse with both. I only obtained a PC that wasn't pants on head stupid about 5 months ago, and had no contact with the XBLA either.

Swapper has only just become available to me and Mark of the Ninja was just a pleasant steam sale surprise. :)

I started playing Pikmin 3.

It's m first Pikmin game, so here are some impressions:

  • It's gorgeous
  • The controls are easy and streamlined, and the entire game appears to be one giant environmental puzzle
  • I like the concept, although I assume (hope?) it develops and becomes more nuanced later.

Can anyone tell me if soul sacrefice is any good?

Soul Sacrifice is a monster-hunting game sans the exploration/gathering aspect, focusing purely on the fighting. Good idea in theory, but that just means you'll be fighting the same monsters again and again within a smaller time span. Weapons being simplistic doesn't help matters. Game doesn't try hard enough to encourage you to learn their nuances nor the monsters' for that matter, especially when projectile weapons happen to be broken-tier.

Delta brings in new content, updated mechanics to make melee more viable, and some balancing among other things. Can't tell you how much that makes things better though as I haven't played it.

Nice. But too bad the upgrades cost just as much and continue to increase :P.

Rogue Legacy has one of the most impressive and balanced 'economies' that I have come across in a game in awhile. I think it's Rogue Legacy's most underappreciated quality.

You can change your steam profile showcase to rarest achievements and it will show how many "perfect" games you have

I love it. The RPG nature of it is so good. **** grindyass shit found elsewhere. Don't want to upgrade? **** you, you'll lose all/most of your coins.

It's awesome. Not Godlunky level yet but really awesome.

It's 1333 default, but I usually have it OC'ed to 1600.

lol.

I have multiple tabs open, my cpu is usually at 30c. Max is 100c. But it usually doesn't go passed the low-mid 60's. It's at 4.4ghz now and I had it at 4.7 before.

My gpu idle temps when up a bit, both are usually at 29/30c. But since I set up the third monitor, the idle jumped a bit to 39, which is fine. In games temps are the same.

Which it only peaks at 70c and the bottom 62c.

What's the advantage of overclocking an already apt cpu? Like in my case my cpu never goes past 50 at max load, so Icould easily overclock it I think... But I see no reason yet cause my gpu is not even close to making a bottlenecking situation.

We're joking with ya meng :P

It's obviously idle. I mean that's literally only a few degrees above room temperature, to get temps like that at max load would need water cooling or some really powerful third party fans/heatsinks everywhere.

You can get more fps out of it. I don't think my current cpu would bottleneck these cards :P but my other one did.

But I got all around improvements when I switched to this cpu.
I need ram for my other computer (old) and I'll show you the differences once I get it.
