Dammit, there I was try to post a link to amazon's price cock-up on the pre-order for the new aliens game and they go and fix it. Not quite as good a deal but if you have an editor's choice coupon there's a Syndicate/Saboteur pack for $5. Looks like Saboteur will be a pig to get to work on my system.

Holy shit @ the replies to the GIA's tweet about the new Castlevania. People stan for Lords of Shadow? Why? What the fuck!?

Why is every game doing a rape scene now? Is this how game devs are gonna tackle sexism? Repeatedly depicting virtual rape in games featuring mass murder? This shit doesn't happen on iOS, and you people wonder why the commercial future is so much brighter there.

definitely.  just that the nsa wouldn't qualify. 

monsanto should be winning this every year, hands-down.  but it doesn't mean anything anyway, so who cares.

It should be a tie between Monsanto and Koch Industries.

Monsanto wasn't even on that list, iirc. Out of the ones on the list, how could anything but Bank of America win? You know, that whole 'giving out bunk mortgages' bit and forcing people into foreclosure? But I guess that's not as bad as Mass Effect 3 having a shitty ending and Sim City having bad DRM.

It's crap that the Wii/WiiU eshop is fragmented like that, but that's our Nintendo. Maybe one day we'll be able to use the Gamepad to play Wii games, but that day is not today.

Just wanted to play the last bits in Hotline Miami (got the proper ending earlier today) but it seems like my pc decided to die in the meantime  >:(. Fans spin for like a second and the main led lights quickly than it goes dead again. Probably either the power supply or the mainboard. Guess I have time for final paper now :tocry

i wanted to add how there is another huge dissonance about how the same people that talk about brothers in a "delivering the promise of interactive storytelling" manner are now making dick jokes like the most juvenile frat boys but i tought it was too much "old man yelling at clouds-like"

Before we continue, I have the thing you need to take your Rust experience to the next level.  When you load into a server, the first thing you should do is to bring up the console with F1, and enter:

censor.nudity false

This will make people without clothing equipped appear completely naked.  There is probably someone for whom a limp-ass prong represents titillating material, but this is about as nonsexual as nudity gets.  Without the “false” flag set, people show up with pants when they don’t actually have pants, which is untrue.  It’s untrue mechanically and it’s untrue literally.  Rust is an open world survival game with strong crafting elements, so in order for it to be stable conceptually it must honestly represent itself.  There are many games of this type, but their choice to go as realistic as possible radically alters how you perceive and interact with the world.  Believe it.

yeah i get that but you can't make a statement about brothers being artistic and then write "dicks are funny",it's just logicaly wrong,it would be like if roger ebert liked a jason friedberg and aaron seltzer movie... if you honestly think that a videogame can be artistic then show some good taste

but anyway in the end it really doesn't matter so i'm just getting worked up over nothing

Bros I'm going to play Icewind Dale for the first time ever soon. What are your thoughts on it. I guess the Pillars of Eternity pics made me really nostalgic for a western rpg. I played some of Baldur's Gate as a kid but never really obsessed over it. At the time I was too busy with StarCraft and RTS in general.

Nonsense. Why is it not logical? Who says you have to pidgeonhole yourself that way.
They're not a brand (as much as it looks that way), they're just dudes, as was Ebert. He liked what he liked and maybe he showed more consistency in his opinions, but that doesn't mean that he or anyone else can't appreciate a silly thing when they're wanking philosophically at some other time over something else. Or even the same thing. It just doesn't follow. My special fellow sense is tingling.

there's nothing weird about appreciating brothers and also liking dick jokes.

ok,but these guys are sort-of professional writer and they should be carefull about what they write and how they do it,if you want to make a dick joke do it but be mature about it otherwise i will have an hard time taking you seriously when it comes to discuss thing that aren't dick and that thing i posted above certainly isn't...

yeah! that's why hearing the words "interactive storytelling" from the mouth of these guys bother me so much... seriously look at this shit here about the last of us

Quote
What I mean is that it doesn’t really offer ironic protection to the player.  This is not an adolescent game, and I mean that in all three ways.  Its themes are not adolescent themes.  It is not the product of an adolescent mind, nor is it the product of an adolescent industry.

gamers! high brow intellectual when it comes to the latest sony blockbuster,dick obsessed vandal otherwise... you'd assume someone who has some value as little that might be would try to break these sort of general statement
