  How do you feel about the "gaming media"?

I actually don't hate G4, but their podcasts are infinitely superior to the actual television stuff. Other than that I really only go to Kotaku.

Old one's at the limit, so let's get a new one up in this hizzle.

Next update will have trading, a new game mode and the Polycount pack items. I am very happy.

So, you would like to play with very few people, is that what you're saying. I mean seriously, you expect people to not be jerks. If you have a lot of people playing, you're going to get a fair number of jerks.

You just described basic human nature. Most people want to be on the strong and more powerful side, and to crush their enemies with overwhelming force. When and where ever humans have come to fight they have always wanted to have more weapons, or people, or whatever then the other guys. It's not a sure thing but most of the time it works.

Still though, he does have a point, it's shitty, annoying, and can ruin the experience if you're on the team having your nuts stomped in (being first place on your team, maintaining a positive kdr, but the rest of your team might as well not be there, for example). Granted, it's all shooting games in general, not exclusive to TF2 by any stretch. At least TF2 has things one can put in place to prevent or deter stacking.

Day one purchase for me. Looks like RE4 mixed with NMH (and I'm not only saying this because I know who are working on this game, to be honest Mikami said as a producer he hardly did anything on this title, yet it still feels very RE4-ish) and with a soundtrack by Akira Yamaoka.

Small interview here:

http://tgs.gamespot.com/video/6275958/?tag=top_stories%3Btitle%3B1

It's odd, but good, to see Mikami without his typical sunglasses and clothes. Now that he doesn't work at Capcom anymore he can appear natural in interviews.

Got the full game a few days ago, and Admiral and I have spent the past few nights playing with a friend of mine. Dear god it is so pleasing. I don't think we've had that much fun with a multiplayer game since we used to play Smash Bros. Melee back in middle school.

I thought 2 was the best cause I liked the mini open world levels for each of the characters. Yeah Bently and Murray weren't as fun to play as Sly was but I don't think they were boring. 3 is where I thought it took a dive though because it was just mini game after mini game.

Why did they mess with her voice, though? It sounded fine in the first one.

I didn't mind playing as Bentley or Murray, but thought it should have been scaled down a bit. Sly's the main focus of the game, he should be the one you play the most.

No.93983

I heard that the Sly 1 VA was sick during the voicing of Sly 2 which is why she got replaced. Don't know about Sly 3's story with voice acting. But I'm surprised by how BAD Carmelita's voice was in the third game.

Not exactly a great deal if you ask me. Those 3 games don't cost much to buy these days because they've been out for a while and they're not in demand anymore. Not to mention neither of those 3 have 2 player local play so that 2nd controller isn't going to get any use for a while. If you want a better deal and to make him happy, I'd recommend this:

Xbox 4GB slim
80GB laptop compatible hard drive (I recall you can switch out hard drives in the slim models like the PS3. Feel free to correct me on this though.)
$65 gift card for a game or two (depending on what he picks).

That would probably cost a bit less and he'll have the system + money to buy a game or games of his choice.

Welp. My XBox is dead. I did my best to stave off the red-ring, but it happened anyway. It lasted me a good while, what with being refurbished.

We got too much of the latter and not enough of the former. Lets talk about Dungeons and Dragons! One of the first and still one of the most popular tabletop RPG's out there. How'd you get into it? You ever play? How do you enjoy the editions?

Last game I played was a 4th edition game on Skype that I ducked out of. With Tomb of Horrors and Dark Sun setting on it's way I figure now's as good as time as any to discuss the game. So what're you hoping for with the next big releases of DnD?

Personally? I can't wait for Psionic Power to be released so we can improve the Psionic classes in general. Ardents and Battlemind's really need an upgrade.

The newest addition to our pirate campaign: a half-orc avenger of Tiamat who used to serve as the first mate on a ship called the Ragamuffin before her mates were killed by lizardfolk. Her current goal: to storm their ziggurat, destroy their very religion, and replace it with her own. Her weapon of choice: a falchion enchanted so that it is basically a giant fancy chainsaw.

Fuck yeah I love this group.

So hey how about a Warcraft thread? I know WoW's shittiness has mostly ruined the fun of the series, but this was once one of the coolest things in gaming.

Recently I've been getting the itch to play it again, and am unsure whether I want to play W2: BNE or W3/TFT.

IT'S A SHOOTER SIMILAR TO CAPTURE THE FLAG. A NEUTRAL BALL SPAWNS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE MAP AND YOUR TEAM MUST CAPTURE THE BALL AND TAKE IT TO THE OTHER TEAM'S BASE IN ORDER TO SCORE.

WE ARE RECRUITING PEOPLE TO CREATE 2-3 PERSON TEAMS TO PLAY DEPENDING ON HOW MANY PEOPLE WE CAN GET TO JOIN.
