how good is Alpha Protocol brehs

Good if a bit janky. I played it as a shooter and it was fine.

On a completely unrelated note, I found a monster 3600mAh PSP phat battery to replace my totally dead one. It's hard to find a damn working PSP battery nowadays.

the beginning is like shitty mgs4 and splinter cell and capl of duty combined but the main game is one of the best executed dialogue and consequence systems ive seen. raping mass effect at its own game

alpha protocol

This has just been posted on some cheapskate Facebook group I follow...

I get the feeling quite a few of you are down on the ol' Weeooo, but if you're in the UK - you can get the Wii U Premium Pack + Nintendo Land for £202. You need to sign up a new account at Zavvi and use code ZV16870409 -- if it doesn't work, it's still cheaper than normal at £224. http://goo.gl/caktG

You could maybe buy and re-sell, try and turn a profit? Wouldn't surprise me if a price cut comes in soon to make it this sort of price more permanently

i have to say though these boss fights are somewhat terrible. the brayko one especially, makes me wish id invested more in assault or shotty. that pistol chain shot slays tho

I blasted the final boss in about two seconds with pistol chain [and maybe something else, can't remember right now].

2K13 is actually one of the smaller versions recently, 2K9 is like 11 GB.

RAGE is a 21GB install. I think that's the biggest game I have on Steam. GTA IV is like 17 GB.

Really? Holy shit... Never played any of his games but I always loved how outspoken he was. RIP.

Everything I've read today about Kenji Eno makes him seem like a great guy. RIP

In other news it sounds like there are layoffs going on at the sites owned by IGN (UGO/1up/Gamespy). Looks like Mathew Rorie was let go. WTF he just got hired like a month ago $:-\$ I'm still bitter with his treatment during the giantbomb sale. They really should have kept him on. I hope he lands somewhere good

Cutting back makes sense though. I don't know why you would run IGN and still own a bunch of smaller sites

I never got to sit down and play D2, would love to. I never played Enemy Zero or his WiiWare game too (Me, You, and the Cubes).

I'll give it a shot, but from screenshots it just seemed like another game in the classic RE/Silent Hill style of aimless wandering until you figure out where to go/what to do. If that's the case, I probably won't like it. But hey, it's on PC so why not.

Hadn't heard about this before, but apparently people found an early version of the sequel to Resident Evil 1 [which was much different from what actually became Resident Evil 2] and have patched it together into something almost like an actual game:

Don Flamenco · « **Reply #10945 on:** February 21, 2013, 02:22:28 PM »

the version that came out is actually a alpha version of the patch they're working on, so it's kinda messed up. They released it cause someone who had it was planning on selling it.

I'd imagine that releasing a PSP game at this point is like playing Russian roulette with 6 bullets. You can't win.

EDIT: So the internet tells me that Generation of Chaos: Pandora's Reflection actually did come out here. 3 days ago. You can buy it now: https://store.sonyentertainmentnetwork.com/#!/en-us/games/generation-of-chaos-pandora's-reflection/cid=UP1063-NPUH10184_00-GENRATIONOFCAOS6

Or did you mean that they should have released one of their own games instead of that? But haven't they released all of NIS's games over here?

trying out Big Picture steam on my TV. i like it a lot but the homo moaning whale music in the background is kinda annoying. kinda reminds me of ass creed

this is the only way i game on pc anymore. just alt tab over to steam and hit the guide button on your remote! feels so much better than leaning over to alternate between kbm and the controller. also the cheevs have a different window style that makes them look more like 360 cheevs and thus 1000% more desirable.

and i think you can turn off the music in the options menu.

Capcom changed the text for Dragon's Dogma for achievements to say "DD: Dark Arisen" -- looks like the list will be the same as vanilla, the DLC is just extra fluff. Good thing too, now I can hold onto my copy.

I don't know how people do it. I guess maybe the stuff that NIS publishes could be good, but I just look at it and it looks so obnoxiousness and everything I dislike about Japanese anime.

The Time and Eternity game could be fun(I hear it's not) and the animation thing sounds interesting, but the character designs and subject material are a total turn off. Hey I like my sex in games, but the panty flashes just look kind of creepy in that game.

both versions are rough. iirc, 360 has the better framer rate while PS3 doesn't tear. pick what bothers you more.

there's a ~4 gig ~40 minute long demo out on the PS3 if you want an idea of what it's like.
