farcry 4 has glitched out in a really strange way and randomly made me invincible. ive tried everything i can to fix it but im at a dead end.

I'm thinking about getting DA:I but I'm torn. I read many user reviews on Metacritic and I can honestly say I've never seen a fan base this split on opinions. People seem to either love it or hate it.

This sort of tough decision making is fairly indicitive of the gameplay in dragon age at least : p your decision will carry over into your playthrough of DA:I of course!

DA:I is awesome on console. i think a lot of the hate comes from PC players because the controls in the PC port is utter shit apparently. unless you're using a gamepad.

[Frank Poole]

Hmm sounds like the same kind of hate Dark Souls got when it was ported to PC. Fuck it I'll give it a shot. Thanks!

Game is amazing. The bad user reviews are mostly angry PC users (surprise) complaining about lackluster keyboard and mouse controls. Just compare user reviews between PC and console versions and you'll see.

Been playing it on console for the last week and the only problem I've run into was the game locking up once, because I accidentally entered conversation with two NPCs at once (which is not meant to be possible), and a bard playing an invisible instrument. And this is after more than 30 hours of play.

Great life hack: Amiibos will open certain subway turnstiles. Moscow confirmed, anywhere else?

[YEK]

Man, these Steam sale prices sure are fidgety! One day, Saints Row IV is £11, the next it's 8. And now today, suddenly, it's £4!

 

What is this parlour game they play with my finances >:(

[Braintree]

I really need to put together a gaming rig. My Mac Mini is armed to the teeth with RAM, but the graphics card sucks so bad that Mark of the Ninja won't even run smoothly.

I would take advantage of more of the Steam sales if I wasn't so worried that they won't even work.

[doublename]

I was OD'ing on FFX HD Remaster before school intervened. Goddamn these old games with unskippable cutscenes.

[luke viia]

bought castlevania LOS: mirror of fate and LOS 2 on the steam sale. i really enjoy this reboot, despite the incompatibility w/ the canon stuff (alucard, belmonts in general etc). well-made fun to play games, with admittedly shitty puzzles... still good times.

[Stock]

Finally started Half Life 2 yesterday, I was stunned by the atmosphere, the sound design etc. and just learnt that it turned 10 years old like 2 weeks ago !

Kind of awesome. Never really played "recent" games but I think the graphics of HL2 are still really beautiful !

Is the japanese retail version of Biohazard HD completely import-friendly? I was tempted by importing it but I was afraid there would be a language barrier at some point.

The Japanese retail version of Biohazard only has Japanese as far as I know. I think there'd be a definite language barrier. I think there's a Chinese version that's coming out before the west that has both English and Chinese so that's definitely import-friendly.

YOU KNOW NOTHING!

 

Here are the language options currently sat staring at me on my JP version:

 

 

So display language is Multi5 (English, French, Spanish, German or Italian), subs on or off, and voice in Japanese or English. I'm pretty damn pleased!

Godammit - I hate GTA with a passion, but these visuals are sooo impressive, it kinda makes me want to play.

Why wouldn't you be able to save? AFAICR, WWHD allows you to save anywhere, anytime.

 

Been playing a TON of games during the holiday break (well, a ton for me and my limited playtime):

 

Geometry Wars 3: Fun, hard and awesome! Music and visuals are really good.

Binding of Issac: Rebirth - finally "got" it, and can't stop doing runs to see what crazy shit I'll get

Rayman Legends: So amazing - visuals, sound, music, characters - honestly, the modern Raymans (Origins and Legends) are waaaay better than any Mario game (!) - more challenging, more fun, and way more creative (IMO).

 

I also finally picked up Last of Us: Remastered for 20 bucks, but won't start that until I block out a good chunk of time to play it properly...

In the settings you can switch the game to a 'do not disturb' mode, which stops phone calls, missions kicking in, etc. so you're free to just go off and explore. I've spent far more time doing photography than playing it 'properly'.

I would say doing whatever the heck you want is playing a sandbox game correctly
