I thought you were kidding and then I went to check that stream/thread.

 

Also Jack Keane 2: The Fire Within sitting on sale with 80 copies for nearly 2 hours on GoG. No one wants it.  Only like 20 copies sold of the 90-100 they allocated.

Turok bombing on 360 happened.

"hey, even for unrepentant sonyfags, i guess we were a little fast on that title change. after an hour of hoping that everything goes right for us, i guess we better alter the title again to press the narrative that this guy is just a BIG DUMB DUMB whose supreme idiocy somehow overpowered sony's flawless engineering."

[Shaka Khan]

That thread underwent at least 5 title changes. This is sad.

I love how GAF acts like PC gaming is the gift of the gods until the console wars start heating up. Give it a few more years and they'll be back to their "PC" fanboyism, aka alliplayisconsoleportsonmuhpc.

Make a STALKER or Jagged Alliance thread and see how much discussion you get. Those aren't even obscure games either. GAF didn't disappear up The Witcher's ass until the series was on consoles. I remember when the only people that discussed PC games on GAF was me, Borys and Tre.

[thisismyusername]

Hey, now. I just got a PC to play Stalker, I was interested in it from /v/.

I haven't played SoC in a month or so because I got frustrated being shot to shit while having to mess with the mechanics on the hardest difficulty setting.

/v/ is obsessed with STALKER and anything that comes from that part of the globe. I played Man Of Prey because of the threads that were popping up.

[thisismyusername]

Yeah, I bought all three Stalkers on Steam sales and haven't given them much time of day because the gunplay is just frustrating me. SoC seems good, but Master is kicking my ass because I can't nail things I should be able to nail in other FPS titles.  I need to get back to it because I want to finish the story and move to Clear Sky (or is it Call of Pripyat?) and then the other after that, but can't because I'm just getting annoyed by the Urikrane Jank.

I haven't heard of Man of Prey. Should look into that.

People should be excited about games like X: Rebirth, game looks great. Of course it might be a buggy mess (okay, it's Egosoft, it will be a buggy mess at first, patches though!), but hey .

Edit: I remember GAF basically not talking about PC gaming at all by the way, makes me wonder why I even bothered to register to begin with given that I pretty much play nothing but .

[StealthFan]

They only started talking about PC gaming this gen, when console ports became more common. Spending $500+ to play better looking console games

I am going through Mass Effect 3 and the tragic decision to give EDI a sexy cyborg body has made me think back on Bioware's worst characters. I want to say KOTOR had the worst cast (still love that game) but I just realized I can't remember a single goddamn character from Jade Empire, with the exception of your mentor. If it wasn't for the hilariously obvious twist I wouldn't even recall that loser.

I'm a huge PC gamer. Been since I was a kid.


I have a dark secret though... for the last 8~10 years.. I'd say 90% of games I play on the PC are korean F2P grinding games. I fucking love grinding

Slightly TLDR version.

He got obsessed as did most of SonyGAF with the idea that MS were infiltrating Gaf with 'shills' after their reveal and was doing his own investigations. Of course we all know Gaf 'detectives' can't resist putting on their sweat sodden greasy fedoras and breaking a 'case' and a lot of people were suddenly doing their own investigations and throwing the word shill about to other users. Of course insulting a fellow gaf member is against TOS so Bish suddenly started banning people for using a word he himself threw into the crowd in the first place.

He could have easily removed the pretty obvious marketing people,but made a song and a dance about each one. Further feeding the monster he had created.

Of course the idea of marketing men and shills both paid and unpaid on Gaf was such a shocking surprise. It seems to have fried his mind and have him seeing them everywhere.

I personally think it's time to change Bish's Samuel L Jackson character from

[Olivia Wilde Homo]

bishoptl has been an sfag since I can remember (the PS2 era).  The only time he may have talked about the 360 positively was when he was talking about his shitty Turok game.

[StealthFan]

Didn't he also make The Outfit? Man that turned into a franchise, didn't it?

I have...feelings about Bishoptl, much like Puddles does with Duckroll. I am not as angry, or obsessed though. I just really, really, REALLY dislike Bish. If he was on fire the only thing that would stop me from masturbating is fear that my cum would alleviate the burning.

I find all the Banderas stuff funny. How it got co-opted by sony fans is still a mystery to me.

This is very accurate. He once banned me because I pointed out that there were quite a few inferior sony ports on cross platform games. His message was "Earn your check from someone else, not here, see you in a month" or something to that extent. Laughable that the only opinion one is allowed to have over there is that PC is the king, Sony is the Queen, and Nintendo is awesome, okay? Quite sad this guy is worshipped there by the masses.

[Am_I_Anonymous]

I prefer this one.

[hampster]

Ok, this Bandears thing is getting sad. If Sony really has him at this event, I may end up quitting gaming forever.

Sony knows if they embrace the meme now the internet will love it for about 30 seconds and then quickly move on to something else. Frankly I'm glad Sony is getting out in front of this and saving us from years of shitty banderas gifs

How the hell he became a trusted 'insider' on MS stuff will remain a mystery. His also one of the idiots really pushing this Banderas thing.

Hey, Andy: Is there anyway to remove the adbar near the top without removing the entire "bar" with Adblock on Chrome? Remove it Permanently on Firefox removes just the iframe, but Chrome doesn't have that extension and the extension replacemen it does have doesn't do iframes. :/

[nobody of note]

GAF's relationship with insiders is weird. All the prominent Sony insiders are also, coincidentally, Sony fanboys. The only real prominent MS insider I can think of is CBOAT, who is most definitely not an MS fanboy (and is revered for breaking NDAs anonymously, something that is much less cool when Arthur Gies openly does it.)

GAF would ban the MS equivalent of famous mortimer for being a shill, I think, so Thuway being what passes for an MS insider doesn't surprise me. He's too busy begging Sony to pander harder to shill for MS.

Indeed, although I think most of those were for non-Nthing reasons. Maybe. My memory is honestly pretty fuzzy.

I remember getting banned for bumping the Wii name thread, and for calling out Dcharlie on Christmas last year... I think something about Sonic one time, too? Oh and referencing John Harker's old tag in an admittedly tasteless way.

What do you mean?

There's an option in AdBlock Plus "Hide placeholders of blocked elements", does unchecking that solve what you want?

Your memory is indeed fuzzy. Everything except your piracy ban was for either being a jerk (an official ban category) in a Nintendo related thread, or something "system wars" related like port begging. The last was for calling out DCharlie in a Vita thread.

That last one was so obviously in good fun as to be absurd. And on Christmas too, Aeana has no heart. :'(

The piracy ban was just me being oblivious, lol. I'm really thankful for Stump for understanding that and cutting it in half.

Still, eight bans over six years? Coulda been worse.

The only time I ever got banned was saying something to the effect of "I wouldn't be surprised if MGS4 got ported to the 360 in the future."

That was apparently ban worthy. Granted, it was only for a day, but I thought it was pretty hilarious that me, a guy who only owned a PS3 this generation got banned for that.

You weren't kidding. Him and Kagari are doing some serious firefighting in that PS4 defectives systems thread. Suddenly the burden of proof for posting rumors regarding the PS4 failures has risen above vague mentions of insider status. I see one of them has already updated the thread title. His basically just told this guy he has half an hour to provide a source to a quote he posted or he gets banned.

"A handful of people have reported issues with their PlayStation 4
systems. This is within our expectations for a new product introduction,
and the vast majority of PS4 feedback has been overwhelmingly positive.
We are closely monitoring for additional reports, but we think these
are isolated incidents and are on track for a great launch."
-Sony 2013

"A handful of people have reported issues with their Xbox 360 consoles. Failure rates are within our expectations for a new product introduction... We are closely monitoring for additional reports, but reports show these are isolated incidents ...."
-Microsoft, 2005
