System Wars Lounge v53: Copyright Edition!!

@jg4xchamp: I've seen plenty of juniors get shutdown (not necessarily banned mind you) on gaming threads though, especially so when they go against the grain per say. They go way too hard on juniors for the fact that they are juniors. I kind get it, it's a bit of "trial by fire" for a forum, but it gives the the wrong image.

In any case, I don't post there so I don't care all that much. Great place for gaming news though, everything seems to get posted as soon (or almost as soon) as it happens.

Yup. But man, i didn't get any upgrades besides legs in my first playthrought. So final Sigma was aBITCH.

X2 is better imo, but in contrast, Sigma is.........................................terrible.

can you guys believe that where I live the tax will be raised to 16% in May of this year?

16%

And if the rumors are true and gas becomes expensive again during the summer... I don't know how I'm gonna live.

Which version? The Wii version is considered better then the HD versions.

Amalur was cool but the world was too big and the fiction and stories in that game were boring. Too many worthless side missions from what I remember. Felt like they tried to make a single player MMO

Didn't it start as an MMO or something.

But yeah, sidequests are shit mostly, but as far as the lore goes, I like it more now that I can compare it with how shitty Oblivion was at presenting its lore.

They were saying they wanted like a world like TES and combat of DMC or something, but in the end, the world is just big and nothing much to do other than shitty fetch quests (no random encounters nor any meaningful changes to the world) while the combat is fun, it's not deep at all.

I'd like a sequel though, always liked Big Huge Games and more or less Curt Schilling too (though I think he's now off the gaming business for good)

Never been more scared of paper than this time.

How's dying light since the latest patch

Well then....this explains a lot :P

wow 40k...

peace out, bitches

So, I almost bought Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines on Steam. I couldn't do it when I could get five Star Wars games (Dark Forces/Jedi Knight collection) at the same price.

Anyway, I made some other purchases today too, but I'm reaching my cutoff point.

Nice!

GS should be handing you the "Get a life bro!" award soon enough hehe :P

thats it? what a noob

Complimentary membership to warhammer?

Transistor's OST is too good to be true.

@inb4uall: Tell me about it. I beat Fallout 3, but it was overall shit.

It's amazing, it's way too good for that lame ass game.

Ah haven't listened to that yet. I really enjoyed Nier's though.

Hm? Gameplay sucked?

Pretty lame in that department.

Nice. Now its time to catch up to me. :P

I know I'll never catch up, I got better things to do with my time. :P

Nice! Was worried this one wasn't going to make it. Can't wait to see how it turns out.

If you have a GAF account (I know @jg4xchamp and @Slashkice are members), you should check out this thread if you haven't already.

@kitty:

Such an odd thing to be so arrogantly proud of. To each their own I suppose.

man, i really wish rockstar would give read dead the gta5 next gen treatment.

@mems_1224: Let it go bro. Those thoughts shall only torment your dreams... :(

for some reason i got the itch to play it again but i really dont want to hook up my 360 right now

@mems_1224: Yeah, it's a cool game. It would likely look ridiculously gorgeous on PC/current-gen. One of those rare games in which I would gladly "double dip".

Wrong image in what sense?

Because the underlying thing is that gaf has less shit posting, and all around is less tolerant for shit posting. Is gaf perfect? **** no, but as a gaming forum it's light years ahead of so many other websites. There is no bullshit "post in the sticky" mentality during E3 when everyone knows that E3 is so busy and everyone is excited that it is in everyone's best interest to let more of those threads go. Since that's what majority of the people want to talk about, and then you can spread the topics around. Just be reasonable if there are 4 topics about the exact same game at E3, or similar topic (ala xbox better than playstation thread).

The debates are generally better written on that forum, less straight attacks (yes yes I know), and more actual debating points. Games for older generations are discussed, hell games in general are the discussion, not pieces of plastic. Not to mention you get developers that actually use gaf. They are harder on juniors, because usually juniors bring in shit habits they learned was fine on shitty forums to gaf. Going against the grain isn't the issue, it's when you make a post against the thread, just to shit on a game, without being part of the conversation.

Juniors that go against the grain and then go through the trouble of actually explaining their point last pretty long and don't get shit for it.

Posters who go the route of being completely incapable of seeing the other side of the equation, don't hang. And frankly it's kind of awesome, less tolerance for stupid shit.

@jg4xchamp: Bro like I said, I don't care all that much. I gave you my opinion as someone looking from the outside in (and as mentioned, mostly looking at the gaming side of the forum). Is my view skewed incorrectly? Possibly, very likely in fact, as I've been told the OT threads are vastly different (almost an entire different forum on it's own even).

No need to justify to me why you like it or think it's better or even why I'm wrong :P I'm aware I may be wrong, but I honestly don't care enough. It's mostly just a simple/effective news hub for me lol Well, until the day they decide to make it a closed forum that is XD

You could do the same against me as well(catching me in posts).

god these new apple earbuds are a bitch to jog with.

Yaaaaaaay, ice day tomorrow.

Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate is one heck of a Game!

I will never understand women.

No, no you won't, but if you start lifting, you'll never need to my friend ;)

Not really proud. Just poking at lostrib. He has posted a lot and seems to be one of the more active ones around here.

Probably. :P But I'm back to my old self, more into helping others with the site and keeping the forums in good shape. :P

Eww, Jaggi gear.

Awww, who took away edgework's thread :(

Without even beating Dark Forces, I started replaying Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy, starting with a female Jaden (even though it isn't "canon" in the EU), reserving Saber play until it's dueling time (using a lot of blasters).

Just when you have a day where you accept woman logic can't get dumber, BAM, dumber.

@LegatoSkyheart: What is that? I can't quite see what's going on. It looks so shit.

I remember when I could look at that game's protagonist and not had to remind myself about Jaden Smith.

@funsohng: that's Monster Hunter 4

That looks painful to play.

@funsohng: it's actually not.
