    Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag

    So I'm stuck at 99% complete on the PS4 version. I still need to kill a mob with every weapon 7/9 and kill all 6 different sea animals 5/6 looks like these 2 challenges are bugged and can't be done till they patch the game. Doesn't happen to everyone though. I also need to finish the last couple...

    Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag

    Best way to get metal early in the game is to keep a wanted level and kill pirate hunter ships. They usually have 80+ metal. After that the best way is to travel south on the map and take down man-o-wars. You will need some ship upgrades for these though. The legendary ships drop $20k also but...

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    Just picked up a launch edition from Amazon for $410 with 1 day shipping. The launch lineup seems very weak though. Guess I'll just upgrade AC4 for $10 and play though it again and maybe pick up Kill Zone even though it's not getting the best reviews and I've never played the others. I forgot we...

    Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag

    Should be 2 codes in the box. Actually 3 if you redeem it for the $10 PS4 upgrade.

    Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag

    Just finished AC4 and I have to say it was a blast the whole way through. I finished with 95% but will go back and get the last 5%. I'm not sure how Ubi can top this game with AC5 though.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I have a CE code from GMG that I cannot use. I didn't know if you already have a 1.0 account you have to get the CE upgrade from Square the other sites won't work. First $20 gets it.

    I have a FFXIV CE code for PC from GMG if someone wants to buy it for $20. I didn't know if you have a 1.0 account you have to upgrade to CE from the Square site. This code will work with new accounts only.

    For those that got an email from GMG today with 2 codes where do you enter the 2nd one since it's different than the early access code? I also checked my FFXIV account and it shows I'm running the normal version not the collectors. Only place I see to enter a code is under bonus items but the...

    Anyone know where to get an updated list of what classes are needed to be a bard, black mage etc..? You would think this would be on the official website for the game but I'm not seeing it. Looks like Bard is no longer archer/conj.

    Trailer for what could be the best martial arts movie of all time

    Haha Van Damme. One of my friends was so gay for him he actually started taking karate lessons and became a black belt and still does the shit today. Van Damme starting doing big name movies then he fell off the face of the earth. What happened to him? Did he pull a Wesley Snipes and not pay taxes?

    Man of Steel

    Just saw this movie with the wife and we both liked it. One thing I thought was cool was when they played the song Seasons by Chris Cornell. A classic tune from the movie Singles. Actually got choked up when that started playing. One question I do have is the ship that was buried in the ice had...

    The Last of Us

    It probably won't but it would be nice to have a consistent framerate and all those other perks the pc brings.

    The Last of Us

    This has to be the most over-hyped game this year. I'm only a few hours in but I can't help but think how much more amazing this game would of been on a PC. I haven't played a game on my PS3 in months since most games this year have been multi platform and I always go PC first if available. Game...

    GRID 2

    Played for a few hours and I like it. I never played the first Grid though. This is a 100% arcade racer. No sim here. I like it for what it is though. The graphics are good and the sound as well. If you like arcade racers you'll probably like it. Using a Dual Shock 3 controller with motionjoy in...

    Falling out of love with gaming

    I agree with most of this. I played Rift at launch and got a warrior to max level and then quit after the first patch that gutted warriors. Haven't been back to the game since because I knew they would keep fucking around with classes every patch and now with Hartsman gone I see why it's FTP...

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    That's an insane amount of cash to drop on vid cards and a processor though. I have a 2600k Sandy Bridge and a 680GTX and this setup runs every game out there maxed and will probably last another year or 2 before I even think about upgrading. I can see dropping the cash on a setup like that if...

    Returning to WoW after 18~24 months...

    I was in the same boat about a week ago. I have 1 of each class and about 7 of them are 85. Rest between 30-60+. I decided to level my 85 mage. I played a mage since friends and family beta and always seemed to be the best at them. Frost spec seems the strongest for leveling. It's all about...

    Neverwinter: PC

    There is a sort of hidden set of sliders and settings under video options. Click the troubleshooting tab and you can select DX11 and a lot of other things. On my rig with a GTX680 maxed everything I think it looks pretty damn good. I've been playing the entire early start and have a trickster...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I played over the beta weekend and came away unimpressed. I was falling asleep in my chair for the first 30-45 minutes just running around town doing the fetch quests. Really? Fetch quests as soon as you log in? I don't want to visit every npc in town as soon as I log into a MMO the first time...

    Bioshock Infinite

    When you log into steam from US with a Aus VPN should you see Aussy prices in the store or US prices? The first time I did this I saw games at crazy prices but then it switched back to normal. Just want to make sure I'm doing it right for the early unlock. I'm using Flyvpn btw. Still shows 19...

    IGN already has their review copy and it will be posted Thursday. Getting review copys this early "usually" means the game will be good.

    Tomb Raider (X360/PS3/PC)

    This is the best game I've played so far this year. Can't wait for the next one, but I hope they actually put in some actual tombs this time. I'm really hoping Bioshock Infinite is as good or better. I picked up Alan Wake and the expansion on Steam a few months ago for 75% off and just got...

    Tomb Raider (X360/PS3/PC)

    I have a 6980 and was crashing frequently. I rolled back to the 310 drivers and the game runs butter smooth on Ultimate. Just turn off vsync and the exclusive fullscreen whatever the heck that is. I'm about 50% complete and have crashed twice. Nvidia said they didn't get the final release code...

    Bioshock Infinite

    Bioshock 1 is one of my all time favorite games. No other game since has had that kind of atmosphere or hooked me like the original. The story in my opinion was fine. Yeah the stuff after the twist could of been done better especially the way you turn yourself into a big daddy. The voice acting...

    Tomb Raider (X360/PS3/PC)

    TR is one of my favorite series. I remember the first time playing it with a voodoo card on my PC and was amazed. I know it started to go downhill by the 3rd game but the last 3 by Crystal Dynamics have been really good. Amazon has Underworld, Legend and Anniversary on sale for $4.49 each. Buy...

    Crysis 3

    It's amazing how the first Crysis still stands up graphically after 5+ years. Playing it with the 64bit exe but the last level on the ship still has a bug that will eat all your ram and crash the game within a few minutes. The only way to finish the last level is to run the 32bit exe. Wierd...

    next Arkham game announced.

    I loved Asylum and actually did everything you could do in it. Never even finished AC. The game just felt like GTA with Batman. While I love me some GTA I couldn't get into AC.

    Lord of the Rings Online

    I subbed to this game for a month after watching the Hobbit and lasted about 2 days before I uninstalled it. I've had the game since launch but just couldn't get into it. The graphics are decent. The character models are kinda weak though. The game just feels so generic to me. I had a problem...
