    Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag

    Heh the PS4 version has the over the top smoke in sea combat. Pretty as heck, but man going from the PS3 without it, it was an additional challenge.

    Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag

    Ah gotcha, yea some of those are obnoxious too. (I.e. ME1s biotic ones I just did the other night) They do seem to be getting rarer or controlled now though. (I.e. AC4 had 5 hanging kills - annoying but only 2 over what you need to 100% so an extra few min)

    Wizardhawk's memorial thread (a cautionary tale of dental care and garlic)

    Well if anything you guys may have saved my life - wasn't taking my shattered wisdom tooth seriously. Figured I don't eat on it and wisdom tooth issues are supposed to be no fun so why bother until I started reading this thread. Was out 3 days later...

    Pick My Last Charity for the Year

    I'm partial to genetic disease related ones myself - I believe Child's Play does specialize in childhood genetic diseases primarily though, right? Genetic ddiseases are the worst and kids should never be burdened with the costs - and are generally going to be the most aappreciative.

    Battlefield 4 (Frostbite 3)

    On BF4 PS4 only about 5 hrs over 2 sessions so far - but for it being unforgivably horrid, I have yet to hit a hitch. Or more simply as someone coming late to the party with no baggage from month1, it seems a passable launch at this point. I believe you that M1 sucked - but its M2 now. If...

    Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag

    I'd disagree completely, its wonderful having a tangible to do list for knowing you did everything or almost everything in MOST stuff. MMOs and multiple modes being under the same label being the exceptions to the rule though. Over the years I recall so many things I'd hear about from...

    Damn straight Yim. If they're gonna do MP ones it should be under its own list like a DLC or even better their own game.

    Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag

    DLC 100%'ed - took most of the day though probably got 7 hrs out of it counting breaks for food and such. Definitely enjoyed it - absolutely worth the $6.66 it is with the Season Pass (3 parts, right? I know there's MP bonuses too, but they're just "$0.00 bonuses" to me) - probably still...

    Bioshock Infinite

    Its brief but I'd agree. Its pretty much perfect for the type of game it is. I'm sure an open world version would've been insane, but its not something it was ever meant to be.

    Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag

    Freedom Cry is proving up to my expectations thusfar - nice touches like the slaves singing spirituals and the like when you're sneaking around plantations is a moving touch. New gear is a nice touch I didn't expect as well. (Blunderbuss and Firecrackers are new to single player to my...

    That's kind of my worry is that it'll be "Hey, you need these - wait a very long time or cough up cash" that will turn it into a 1-2 hr a day play if you don't pay for it. Hopefully just paranoia though.

    Neat but I hope the microtransactions are more optional than the vibe I'm getting from that.

    Could go for some girly stuff like Petz with a shared pile of general games. Pokemon seems to be a good unisex game too. Or could do 1 game each with a gift card to round out the others. Definitely want at least the one game for Xmas day use though.

    Awesome doing that for him. Was tempted to do similar when I saw PS4s being planned to be available again with Best Buy announcements, etc here but I just couldn't swallow a $400 donation right now. Sure $150 is less, but you know you're making a kids day doing it - making me regret wimping out...

    Steam code is the same as the uPlay ones if its like past similar promos.

    That is an issue with patched out things, they sometimes show back up by accident. I'm sure PS4 will get similar rewind glitches at times too. (Not that I can think of any horrid ones that could occur but still...)

    True but I meant large meaningless gouges. I don't mind skippable expansions or cosmetic shit as DLC myself, so my start point would be different. NWN is the firstpay for beta I knew of.

    Very true, but its coming to a head - MMOs are new to it mostly so probably a longertime til backlash there though.

    True but its coming to a crest now that almost EVERYTHING is doing it now, and what used to be addons - skins, bonus weapons, maps - stuff that's core like characters in fighters are getting added to the pile now. I can't wait for RPGs to start being solo only to start with DLC character...

    More elegant way of saying it than I did, thank you. Also update here since I was in Gamestop tonight (BF4 PS3 for $30 counting my coupon so I'll have it on PS3 + 4 in a few minutes for $10 more) - they quoted their XBoxOne stock as "over a half dozen for the past week" and that the PS4's...

    Heh not sure of his reasoning, he just doesn't share his WiFi, joke in the group is NSA related. Besides, he's a programmer - familiarity with the hardware is likely a must I'd imagine, no?

    Upcoming Games of 2014

    PS+ from all the current data seems likely the only cost besides owning the title in digital form. (Disc theoretically possible) Gaikai is supposedly how Remote Play works with the Vita right now for 100% free after all.

    There were 4 people there besides myself - the host who owns the XB1 was taking meal time to setup maps and such for part 2 of our Shadowrun session. Rest of us hadn't touched an XB1 previously, don't even think the guys console at all - only my wife did out of the 3. I'd imagine he's decent.

    Dude in thr video (producer I presume) was even saying it that if you just mash something to react you've got decent odds. But hopefully our host is game for a real match on Wednesday, perhaps my tune will change versus an experienced player. Although I doubt it will.
