    For Honor

    The game is going to, deservedly, get shit for peer2peer and all the absurd microtranactions, but it's the best multiplayer game I've played in years. I had tons of issues with connections in the beta but virtually none in release. I said I was going to wait but the day after beta ended I was...

    Smed teams up with Amazon to create new studio

    They have multiple games in development and their own engine, so even without hiring Smed they wouldn't be just a Twitch and shipping gaming division.

    For Honor

    I had problems too, but I played a couple hours of infinite bot sessions and would just practice a single move over and over until I got it, then I'd move on to the next and repeat until I got it all down. This game, man. It's probably the most fun I've had playing any game in a long time, but...

    For Honor

    Played it for the first time this morning and it's as much frustration as it is fun. When everything is working it's excellent, the problem is it only works about half the time. The matchmaking is garbage, I've gotten kicked mid game multiple times, I get "matchmaking not ready" errors which...

    E3 2017 - Now Open To the Public

    I don't know why would want to go to E3 anymore. Most of the good stuff is behind closed doors now. It's not like the old days where every game was available on the floor, hot chicks were everywhere, and free booze flowed like water. Atlanta '97 was a fucking blast, and I'll never forget it, but...

    Wii U and 3DS jailbreak

    Have you actually gotten any Wii games to run yourself? I have 5 that I downloaded, including Skyward Sword, through the tik downloader and they all freeze at the title screen and then reboot my system. I've tried it on both the USB drive and on the console memory and it's the same.

    Wii U and 3DS jailbreak

    I did but I'm not sure if I have the wrong key or if I was just tired and screwed up somewhere in the process. And, yes, downloading everything ahead of time would have made the process so much better, I wish I had known I could do that ahead of time.

    Since when is calling out obvious design flaws having a sandy vagina? P.S. You quoted me so don't whine like a cunt because I responded. Edit: Hands on impressions, or does he have sand in his vagina as well? More disappointed hands on impressions, that also mention the "d" pad that isn't...

    Wii U and 3DS jailbreak

    I grabbed a used one through Amazon last night, if it really doubles the life that would be great and I think the weight will actually help with the cheap lightweight plastic feel of the gamepad. I finally finished up and everything works like a charm except for a couple of hitches. Hyrule...

    Do Nintendo engineers not understand how thumbs work? There is a reason the DPad and face buttons are offset on everyone else's controllers. I'm sitting here holding the ghastly Wii U controller and it's tiny offset is bad enough, but at least it is somewhat offset, the Switch controller just...

    Cool, thanks. I'll just skip 5 then.

    Wii U and 3DS jailbreak

    So my Wii U just came in from Nintendo and I'm looking at the list of steps, it says step 4 and 5 are optional. If you skip these can you still download the games through Nintendo and what do you lose out on?

    The external hard drive support is huge. I swapped out the drive in my Pro last month to a 2tb and it's still not big enough.

    Resident Evil 7

    That was my plan as well, but I was walking around BestBuy when one came out of the back and just impulse bought it. I left it sitting next to the TV for almost a week before I finally decided to open it. It's definitely early in the VR game, and there will no doubt be huge improvements, but I'm...

    Resident Evil 7

    After playing the demo in VR I don't think I would play it any other way. It singlehandedly took me from being a skeptic to falling in love with it. I was one of those people who saw people using VR and acting scared, falling over, etc. and thought they were being ridiculous, but when I loaded...

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

    The demo blew me away in VR and I can't wait to play the full game that way. I've seen a couple reviews from people not under the embargo and it sounds like it will be excellent, hopefully that's the case.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    I think they are hedging their bets and the future of the 3DS will be determined by how well the Switch does. The better the Switch sells the shorter the life span of the 3DS and vice versa. I honestly don't see them killing off the 3DS until they know the Switch isn't another Wii U situation...

    Capcom isn't going to have the manpower to make ten AAA console games in the first place, so even if they somehow manage this unprecedented effort you seem to think is possible they'd be quick and dirty 2D remakes at a considerably lower price point. Second, they aren't going to drop everything...

    Yeah, the Nintendo defense force has gone full retard. Speaking of retards... God damn, you're either a ten year old with no concept of how this industry works or just stupid as shit. Here's a tip, don't spout the above nonsense after telling someone else they don't understand how business...

    Path of Exile

    I don't see why looting or gameplay would be an issue, they both work excellent in the Diablo 3 console versions.

    A) Buying a console, especially a Nintendo console, in the hopes that third parties resurrect games or series from days past is a recipe for disaster. B) In what fantasy land is Capcom going to make hundreds of millions of dollars on the Switch? At best you'll see VC versions of some of these...

    I'd love to know where they are "easy" to find considering I've seen exactly one in a store since it released, which I bought, and they are literally sold out everywhere online, and have been, since they came out. I'm pretty sure it sold as well as Sony expected, or better, considering they...

    That video is hilarious. If they actually ship the Switch version in worse shape than the U version that would be ridiculous, but after everything else involved with this system it wouldn't surprise me. This is what they should have done in the first place. The technology just isn't good...

    This is nonsense and anyone who was subscribed for any length of time both back then and now knows it. PS+ used to be something people chose to purchase because it was excellent, now people purchase it because we have no choice. I guarantee you the subscription numbers would plummet it weren't...

    Because all they "give" away anymore is indie shit that can be gotten in humble bundles or other means for chump change, when before online play became a mandatory part of PS+ they gave away decent AAA games on the regular. PS+ has sucked for a long time and it's because they know they have...

    Jesus, those specs are awful. It doesn't even make sense. It's either a super powerful portable that's too fucking big to actually be portable or it's a disastrously underpowered home console. 3rd parties will ignore this as much as the U which seems odd onsidering all the hoopla they made about...

    I think I can remember one, maye two, controller update in the last 3 years. It's certainly not worth complaining about. And the product did work when it was shipped, they've just improved over time. Would you rather they not update it and force you to buy a new one every time they change...

    Overwatch

    Blizzard does have their own unique system for Overwatch, and they admitted that certain characters were not ranking up or down the way they should have been compared to other characters. At the end of August Jeff Kaplan posted as much on the forums. I bitched and bitched about being lower than...

    Why pay more for a digital product than a physical one? When these companies get their collective heads out of there asses regarding digital prices I'll start buying digital on day one, until then I'll take release day deliveries and a 20% discount.

    Caps need to die, for sure, but developers could care a little more about how bloated their patches have gotten. It's more than a little ridiculous that many games have you practically download the entire game again with every patch. Even for people who have the bandwidth and cap space it's...

    UHD tv's have a higher adoption rate than HDTV did during the same time period, and 4K discs are selling 4x faster than regular blu-rays did as well. Considering the price of a stand alone UHD player and that fact that a lot people bought a PS2 and PS3 just for their drives, Sony left a lot of...

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

    Considering the Xbox One S has a UHD drive and is significantly cheaper, I doubt it's only a cost issue. The more likely answer is that they just dropped the ball. Sony doesn't even have a 4K player on the market, and won't until the middle of next year, and they certainly weren't going to buy...

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Well that would be a mistake if true. It's far too big and it's battery life too short to replace a traditional handheld. However, I've been hearing rumors that there will be a smaller, more portable, version released later that will replace the DS/3DS. Either way, this NX version isn't...

    Is the Democratic party still a relevant political party?

    I've seen this repeated multiple times, but I'm not sure it's accurate. Everything I've seen seems to show that there isn't much difference in the size of the two parties and that independent voters are what sways the elections back and forth.
