I'm kinda scared to play Fire Emblem these days. I'd prefer to think of it as a mildly punishing rock-paper-scissors series I played instead of waifu to the future or w/e it is now.

Wait, there was a new Tales game announced? How did I miss this? And the character designs are Inomata?

I...completely missed this announcement apparently. Too bad it's PS3/PS4 so PS4 version is just another Zestria up-rez. I think the jump to PS4-only might bring a little bit closer to Vesperia nice looking Tales again.

The $80 Fire Emblem version is going to be the superior version. Actually comes with both games on a single cartridge, unlike having to buy two separate cartridges.

I want it but since it apparently sold out in 5 seconds and is still $80, I'll take the L and buy them both seperately

Gamestop's shitty payment gateway is going to prevent me from getting a Xenoblade X LE I ordered back in September. Apparently they have issues with my billing information I provided, which SOMEHOW has no problem with Amazon and many other fucking outlets.

I was kinda peeved but when I realise I would be paying $100 for a stupid art book and stupid usb stick I just cancelled the order and will get the regular version.... VIA AMAZON

A friend of mine wrote two books on working in the game industry. His first book is just a short intro, and is always free, but this weekend he made all three books free on Amazon. Have a look if you're interested in getting into games.

ps4 user interface is garbage water, but stick with it. once you find out where everything is you'll see that it's a trillion times better than the shit sandwich ps4 was. the connection issues stuck tho; i had constant drops with ps3 but ps4 has almost no issues. dunno

Mods Help · « **Reply #15925 on:** November 28, 2015, 09:43:03 PM »

never had ps3 internet issues.

worst thing about ps4 combined with the "please wait..." crap is the bg music. There's some chirping noise that sounds just like a fucking confirmation/bubble sound that shows something is on screen. It's not actually something on screen though, it's just some random ass noise. So every time you hear "BEEP" when there's a "please wait" screen, you look up, and there's nothing there. Whoever made this bg music needs to have a stern talking to. And then after that slapped hard in the face.

Mods Help · « **Reply #15926 on:** November 28, 2015, 09:55:28 PM »

Finally got it connected by moving the ps4 to the tv next to the router/modem.

PS4's wireless really is worse than ps3's.

Even hooked up to the net it's slow and awful. I just bought a premium avvy and chose "go to avatar settings" and it's been on "please wait" for two minutes loading an avatar menu. I remind you that my internet speed is 100mbps.

I haven't played it, but I would definitely buy it for $4. Even bad games usually have some interesting ideas and for that price you can play it for a few hours and see for yourself.

If you're hard up for an RPG, $4 isn't a bad price, but it's probably my least favorite tri-Ace game. Combat is clunky and there's a ridiculous amount of backtracking, especially if you're trying to do side quests. Some of the environmental graphics look nice though and the music iirc was decent.

PC version needs more microstutter to be accurate. It runs awful on PC unless you are running top range Nvidia or AMD at the moment since there's big memory leak problems and microstutter on GTX 700 range cards and any AMD below 290X. The console versions are bad, but if you are going to make some PC Master Race bait. Use a game most PC gamers can actually play at 60FPS and isn't a fucking mess. It's a pretty game but holy shit it runs awful at the minute even with the AMD Beta Drivers for the textures.

Also the story behind it is even more hilarious since PCMR accused IGN of "Gimping" PC's and running them on low settings in multiplat comparisons. IGN's Editor In Chief showed up, showed the PC they used to capture their footage and raw footage from the comparison (Showing PC was running on Max) and they all got butthurt because IGN showed them up. So PC Gamer made that video in response and now they are hopping mad because IGN showed them up again and called PC Gamer "disingenuous".

PC Master Race infighting over trivial shit like console comparisons instead of reaming Avalanche and Square for the awful performance

if a little blurb on a leaked vid is to be believed, PS2 on PS4 won't allow discs, no surprise there, and also won't include the ones you bought on PS3, which is a little less expected. I guess they're considering these somewhere in between a straight ISO and a full HD remaster since they're getting res bumps and such. Probably takes more QA and all that, so I think it's a bit understandable.

People are already melting about no discs + no ps3 PS2 games. but the real meltdowns will happen if Sony goes full asshole and charges $19.99 per game.

The fact they're not even BC'ing the PSN purchases is a bit stupid. What was the point of offering those if you can't say "oh they'll work on later systems" for at least 2/3 gens? Even the PSP titles weren't thrown under a bus like that.
