Hooded

I played the demo a couple of times and I am currently watching the IGN 2 hour Livestream (Here) and it really bugs me that there is two different types of conversation displays, there is the Mass Effect wheel style and a boring list style. The reason why I think it bugs me is because I find it inconsistant, at least I think I do... If anyone can explain why it comes up one way than the other, please do. Maybe that will make it less annoying.

online passes are bullshit enough for online play.

online passes for single player content are worse than Hitler.

The issue being that they make me jump through more and more hoops even though I am paying them premium price for it, Instead of having a nice booklet accompanying the game, I get a single sheet of paper with a code that I have to punch in, in order to get the "full experience" and that is terrible and insulting. At a point it's more convient to pirate a game than to actually buy it (I'm not promoting pirating in way, shape of form).

I get that making games is a business, and as a games lover I fully support it, but making people jump through these hoops is not acceptable. This isn't even the most egregious form of used sales control, but if the market keeps accepting and compromising on this, more and more we will see nefarious, invasive methods becoming the norm (not chan).

The answer to stopping used sales lies elsewhere, where exactly I don't know.

Hahaha oh man, you're too funny.

@Hooded: Forgive me, I was just skimming, and only noticed the argument over Mass Effect. I'm far more excited for Borderlands myself.

Who needs dialogue wheels when you have massively generated colored loot?

YEAH! So true.

Assassins Creed 2: Uh Uh Uh Uh UH!

Does Borderlands 2 not count?

If you read the second page someone reminds me of Borderlands 2 as I totally forgot about it. Its prob my most anticipated game of this year aswell lol.

Only tip I give my Pizza guy is to get a better car, his wreck falls apart more and more he delivers.

Here in the UK a tip is rarely given, and when it is, its kinda like "Keep the change" And even then i'm pretty sure most just put it in the til. I do tip watresses though esspecially if its good friendly service.

It's probably a one-off to pimp Kingdoms of Amalur.

You are prob right, I think IGN are doing a 2 hour Livestream friday, so maybe Jeff will show the game off also. Hopefully.

Good news, i've missed the Happy Hour, I just hope they keep it interesting, Comic Vine and Screened stuff were never my favourite parts of the show, normally i'll get a drink or some food at that part, but to be fair its not aimed at me.

I was one of the lucky B*ds to get Halo 3 3 weeks before release LEGIT, heard stores had them in and went to about 7 or 8 until a store accidently sold it us. I made the mistake of boasting about it (whilst also reporting a bug) on the official Bungie forums and for a little bit they didn't believe me but they did after a couple of pages. I was then flooded with Messages, Friends requests and Private chat invites for days. I couldn't keep up deleting them, more would come in faster than I could delete.

I've also had a bunch of games early, GTA: IV a week early, Gears 3 a week early, theres a few stores that sell it early.

ME3 is a third person shooter and Witcher 2 is a port, the rest of the games are kinda meh. Last year had Skyrim and Witcher 2 and Dark Souls, as well as Hunted and Dungeon Siege 3.. This year doesn't have shit on 2012.

XD lol.

There's another Tales game? Gotta finish Vesperia soon. Hopefully it has cool characters and doesn't waste a character slot on an animal this time.

And doesn't flaunt some badass, Kratos-esque knight in yo face for the entire game alluding to him becoming a party member, then becoming a party member--for like 2 minutes--then removing him entirely. GODDAMNIT FLYNN, I NEED YOU!

They actually added him to the PS3 port as a much more prominent party member too, but naturally they wouldn't localise it because they're scum.

EDIT: Fuck, you haven't completed it. Well sorry to break it to, but you don't get Flynn in your party (least not for very long). It's best you found out sooner rather than later.

Lol, oh man. Yeah you have to finish the game, its one of my favourite games this gen. I completed the US version and I bought the EUR version on Games on Demand. The dog didn't annoy me too much, I just didn't use him all that much, Amazing game and I hope Graces F will be as good if not better :)
