SEGA’s futuristic squad based shooter Binary Domain has been handed a 15 certificate age rating from the British Board of Film Classification due to it’s depictions of “strong violence”.

The listing also reveals that game will feature 255 minutes of cut-scenes (that breaks down to 4 hours and 15 minutes)..

damn!

Xenosaga Episode IV: Binary Domain

Binary Domain looks like Sega trying to make Mass Effect to me. It doesn't look bad, but there's nothing really interesting about it either. Just a by-the-numbers TPS with robuts and lots of cutscenes or something. Will rent.

apparently atlus new mystery game starts with "G" and ends with "R" some people are thinking it might be growlanser iv for the psp

alternatively there is a chance of it being one of the last sting games,named gungnir

i wish they would bother to bring more metal max for once

Himu · « **Reply #7569 on:** December 13, 2011, 08:15:50 PM »

I bought Growlanser V for ps2 along with Wild Arms 5.

Both were the last and final time I buy c-tier jrpgs.

Growlanser V is one of the worst games I've ever bought. Never trust rpg fegs for rpg suggestions, because they will suggest the most outright average tripe.

I've really dug myself in a hole at the gamestop near me. I occasionally preorder a game because the guys are nice there and I know it helps them. One time, the guy reminded me I had an open preorder for something and I said I didn't want the game, but I'd move it to something else because he was cool and I know they have quotas and stuff. He was really surprised by this, thankful, and all that. His co-workers overheard this too, saw them noticing. I don't really ham it up or get super friendly with anyone who works at the store, despite them clearly recognizing me every time I go in and me knowing them, which I feel is a little weird, but whatever, I just buy games there and know enough to be mindful about the preorder process because I've been shopping at gamestop/funcoland since I can remember.

so I went in yesterday to buy ME2 and a $20 PSN card. This clerk was one of the ones who overheard me in that previous story. He told me they might have a code for the game I was gonna get on PSN and I was like "Nah, you definitely don't have codes for the P.O.W:Prisoner of War Mini and besides, it's not out yet." and he's like "all we have is a listing for the PC version, maybe they did a spiritual sequel or something." and I was like "that's not it, I don't think SNK even makes PC games...this is an 80s double dragon clone and i'm probably the only person in the world looking forward to it." I'm just trying to clarify, but it takes a nerd war tone when he apparently didn't appreciate being "shut down" or something and gets grumbly about it.

To pay for part of the transaction, I canceled a preorder for a game and he just went cold for the rest of the transaction, ending with "have fun" in complete dead pan.

I guess he thought I was doing that on purpose. moral of the story: don't ever be nice

I'm always nice at stores I'm a regular at and it did nothing but pay off in the long run. You were just in the situation of someone trying to work that niceness into more money for them.

This. 100%.

You don't have to worry about being nice, the minute the other person isn't worried about it anymore.

Also: Gamestop clerk evinces lack of social adeptness. Film at 11.

I've never really owned a Razer product before, but heard complaints about how shoddy the build quality of their products are. After 20+ years of gaming and never once having a controller break down, my Razer Onza randomly decides to give up, not even a year into owning it, without heavy usage. Both analog sticks jitter like crazy and automatically move in arbitrary directions. Shame since the analog sticks, rubber feel, and face buttons are great.

I was looking to see if MS ever made a wired new 360 controller (changed d-pad, better plastic, different analog grips) and it's wireless only. No clue where I put my PC 360 controller adapter.
