General Gaming / Re: PlayStation4 - News/Rumor/Speculation - Over 1 Million Sold on Day 1

Well, The Order reviews embargo dropped and the end result is about what I expected after the last week: scores varying wildly between as low as an 5.5 from Polygon to an 8.2 from Gametrailers. As I feared, the central complaint seems to be the standard shooting gameplay, something that's bothered me every time Sony's put a 5 second FMV up on stage at trade shows instead of gameplay demos. That said, the Gametrailers review was written by Daniel Bloodworth and my tastes & feelings on games tend to line up with his. I think I'll stick with my Order...well, "order."

NWR Alum Daniel Bloodworth?

Egg guest can bite me.
I spent over an hour on one and had to abandon because of time.  Couldn't even end via subquest.

So you have to still a Rathian egg with and active Rathian.  If you take care of the Rathian every way have you climb down a cliff is covered by Jaggi or those rollipolly guys.  It takes about 5 minutes to walk the egg.

No, I'm going to win.

Though I think I have all the prizes.  Well its a digital version of Monster Hunter but you know.
I hope everyone is putting the Best of the Funhouse as the book choice.  With Commentary that could be really cool.

I be more excited about a new AoU trailer if they all didn't seem like remixes of the first.  What is the armor on the far left?

Downloaded this on the eShop last night on a whim. What is a good weapon to start with? Also, when do most people get online to play?

The easiest weapon to start with is the Sword and Shield.  Its the most versatile of the weapons which makes it a great starter weapon.  Though it hurts in power.  When your ready to move from there Dual Swords if you want to keep with swords but I recommend Hammers next personally or Hunting Horn if you want something a little more complex.

Also another great starting option is Lance.  The extra defense option and lance scales well.

Don't get me wrong though.  You can "beat" the game with any weapon type.

Most people in the Community are helpful.  It was better with Voice Chat for that because it was easier.

I'm really liking how they are moving the single player along.  I normally don't like it much but the actual variety here and a light enough story to make sense plus the localization is working for me.  Really mixed on expeditions though.

Screw selling things! How will I be able to build a shelf of priceless gaming memorabilia to drive my wife nuts and show off in the background of youtube videos to prove my nerd cred?

You say that but, I'm seriously considering shadow boxing all my Nintendo Handhelds.  I have from Gameboy and up just in my house.

Chances of survival of this round if you get to choose a word:

Mop it up - 75%
Soren - 50%
UncleBob - 25%
Ceric - 0%

With that Ceric knew too much.

There are some interesting Concept demo's from almost every developer hidden.  The money people though wouldn't let them get made.

I may get some older games I missed out on so ordered the new card.

According to my UPS tracking number, my 3DS will be here on Monday. Take that 1 or 2-day shipping!

Got ya beat.  Mine shipped Yesterday from Kentucky and its on my porch as of 10:48.  I would go get it but I live an hour away so its going to have to be outside in the cold for about 6 hours...



With that being said, I'm going to try to do the transfer tonight and post my Friend stuff for those who don't have it.

Everything about this game makes it poised to be a really special event. Lets hope NOA does its job and pushes this with some great marketing.

I've come to realize that it must not be NoA's Primary job.

NWR Mafia Games / Re: Mafia LXV: Super Smash Bros. for Mafia. Day 5. Final Destination! No items!

« on: February 13, 2015, 09:24:58 AM »

I disagree.  Items had a relatively large effect on this game because it really tilted it to Mafia favor.  4 Mafia I think was too much.  Though I really hate the Mafia knowing its full team from the beginning.

I also think the Detective should not be a night action par se.  You should be able to investigate once per day but get the results during the day.

Strategy speaking the most active players get killed the first few days.  Personally w/ items I think the Mafia was too big.  The detective has an interesting role.  They are really the only one that can build a trusted alliance.  Talk more when at computer.

« on: February 12, 2015, 11:07:50 PM »

ejamer and Mop-it-up would be the logical choice for Mafia unless someone has some good information otherwise.

Mafia will kill a Townie tonight.   Nothing can stop that.

So we'll have 4-3 no matter what.  Take my death into account because I seriously doubt I'm going to get a rally with a 3 votes already and that makes it 3-3.  I'm not even going to review the rules at this point but at 3-3 its pretty much a mafia win.

Vote Mop-It-Up

I would hope they don't try to do a mainline story but instead do a story of someone who is in the world and lightly intersects with the heroes.  That way it could be canon but not much more then fluffing up.

I almost had to pay 1 year because I filled out my W-4 as I was "supposed to" and it looked like I had 9 dependents.  I just filled it with 1 the next time and always get a refund.

So "unprecedented" that it was hard to fit into the definition of a partnership.

I actually had a coworker confused by the name today.
