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

    Yeah, I absolutely love my physical collection. I need a new bookshelf to hold my games, my current one is overfilled. There's just something about a shelf full of games that gives me more of an emotional attachment to them. I can look over at the shelf and it's like a gigantic collection of...

    JRPGs of the X360/PS3/Wii Generation

    MK2's alotbetter gameplay wise, but the lead isn't nearly as funny as Nep was in the first one sadly. It's not quite as silly over all too, which really made the first game shine. Really looking forward to Victory though since Nep is back as the lead.

    JRPGs of the X360/PS3/Wii Generation

    Totally agree, it's very overused. And lol, you're probably the only other person on the board who has played that series. Can't wait for the next one in a few weeks!

    JRPGs of the X360/PS3/Wii Generation

    I wouldn't say that. I'd say it's alittle bitoverrated, but definitely not one of the most overrated games ever. The combat starts out pretty dull, but gets a lot better as it goes. It has a ton of content and a fairly good and interesting story. I think the voice acting gets way more praise...

    Dragon Age: Inquisition (Plot Details in Spoilers!)

    It's basically a mini-expansion that has its own completely separate area, it's like a big dungeon. You can do it at any point once you get into the city, I think. It might be best to do it post game so you're at the highest level of enemies for it. For your party I'd probably go with Varrick...

    Dragon Age: Inquisition (Plot Details in Spoilers!)

    Most of the hate for DA2 comes from three major things: Act 3 completely throwing away the illusion of player choice mattering, ridiculous amounts of art asset reuse, and some of the worst encounter scripting ever with no creativity and nothing but stupid Ninja Waves of mobs. Other than that...

    JRPGs of the X360/PS3/Wii Generation

    It's Wii only, but you should emulate it and play it on your PC with a X360 controller. It looks alright on the PC, but it's pure eye-cancer on the Wii with crazy aliasing.

    Recommend a console game.

    You mean Demon Souls, Dark Souls was X360/PS3/PC. He also said he's a PC gamer mostly so that's why I didn't recommend it, since he can just play it on there instead.

    Definitely check out Lost Odyssey too if you haven't yet, it's probably my #2 JRPG this generation. Blue Dragon is also pretty good, it's basically Dragon Warrior. Magnacarta 2 should be given a shot too, if you can find it.

    JRPGs of the X360/PS3/Wii Generation

    Oh Jesus no. Like some of those Wii games are total shit that no one should ever touch. A lot of the PS3 ones are super super niche JRPG weeaboo stuff. Definitely Metacritic a title or ask specifically about one if you're not sure. Most of the Tales games are pretty good, though this...

    I'd like to recommend Magncarta 2 to people who have played the big JRPGs of this gen and want more, but haven't played it yet. It's a real diamond in the rough and definitely worth checking out, imo.

    I cannot believe Gearbox's completely unethical behavior in this, it's just sad. I hope no one ever licenses a game to them again. Taking a license and sitting on it for 7 years while you use the publisher's money to fund your own projects and keep asking for extensions and farming it out to...

    Don't troll medicated Seans bro. And god, I really hope they stop with this 30 FPS bullshit with the next generation, 60 FPS games are super rare. Those PS4 specs should be able to handle 1080p at 60fps fairly easily.

    Yeah, a lot of people don't realize just how close you have to sit to a TV to fully see 1080p of detail. For a 42 inch TV it's a maximum of 5.5 feet withnormalvision. For a 60 inch it's about 7.8 feet.

    Yeah, I can't imagine paying 50 dollars when MadVR is available for free and has the highest video quality out of any Renderer and Lav, which is also free, has the best speed of any Decoder. No one juggles codecs anymore, those two work together perfectly for everything when plugged into a...

    There aren't any console games with high resolution textures, not one. And yes, it will be quite noticeable.

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

    That's not true at all. There's going to be a *huge* jump in texture quality. Current consoles use low-as-fuck resolution textures and almost all of them actually Render at 540p to 720p. The PS4/X720 will use way, way higher resolution textures and render at full 1080p. Have you seen a low...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    It's very possible that the RMAH part of the AH won't make it over due to various issues with online transactions and such. The AH itself probably will, but I wouldn't be surprised if red-tape keeps the RMAH away (which would not be a bad thing). And what I said before was that analog sticks...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Well buying another version of a game you already have issilly. But this is opening up the game to a wider audience, this isn't something they're putting out there soyouwill buy two copies dude. Not everyone plays PC games and ARPGs are a genre well suited to consoles, it's to bring in new...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Have you never actually played a console game with text input? It'll just use a virtual keyboard that you hunt and peck on with the stick/d-pad. It's cumbersome and slow, but it works just fine. Typically a key is also assigned to delete/backspace for clearing stuff as well. It's like you have...

    Demon Hunter would actually work pretty well on a gamepad - they have a lot of directional attacks which work great with a gamepad setup. Anything where you just turn the direction you want to shoot, basically. The problem with gamepads + ARPGs is Targeted Attacks where you move a cursor and...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    No, I just greatly preferdirectly controlling my characterwith a separate input method from the mouse. WSAD movement + Mouse to aim abilities would have been better and a stick + mouse would be the best. It's far, far more fun to play Action RPGs with direct control. Guided movement is...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Direct control is way better than pointing where you want to go and clicking. It may be precise for positioning a character somewhere, but it's god awful for moving around in the heat of battle and inferior to directly controlling movement.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Are you seriously trying to say that "Point and Click" movement is precise control? lolololol. Yeah, stopped reading there. Diablo 3's system works somewhat, but it's not really "Point and Click", it's more like you hold down your mouse and drive the character. Most Point and Click movement...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    There's no kool aid dude. Movement is better on a gamepad, period. Analog sticks are a superior movement method over keyboard due to keyboard movement being only 1s and 0s. And click-to-move is well, dumb. Diablo 3 should have shipped with WSAD movement at least. The best of both worlds would...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Movement with an analog stick is vastly superior to a keyboard or Diablo 3's retarded mouse-movement. ARPG Diablo-clones designed around a gamepad are typically built a bit differently though in regards to spells and abilities. Usually they don't have much in the way of circle-target...
