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

    OTA tuner for Xbox One announced for Preview members, $59. For some reason I thought varying standards or something (RF/VHF depending on market?) were why we never got the Sony tuner for PS3 in the states. Between that and Sling, inching close to cutting the cord.

    Interstellar (2014)

    SomeIMDB triviarelated to that, they had an actual physicist as executive producer and consultant on the film for all of that stuff: Early in pre-production, Dr. Kip Thorne laid down two guidelines to strictly follow: nothing would violate established physical laws, and that all the wild...

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

    MSRP is reduced to $40, so sales are going to be pretty nice for it. Just released DLC so probably an effort to get more eyeballs on the game and drive DLC purchases. I'd grab it digitally for that price to give it another shot, wasn't really a fan of the beta. That's the grip I have, lets me...

    Avengers: Age of Ultron

    Yeah, was hoping for a little more Vision, guess they're saving him for the movie. Also in the overhead fight shot you get a glimpse of Quicksilver zooming through fighting drones.

    The Order: 1886

    Arguing overall numbers are kinda silly though. What about the reviews are wrong? Replayability? Issues with the story? Length of the game? Auto-fail QTEs and their general prevalence? Watching vs playing? Lack of depth w/ the gameplay? Don't really see exclusivity being the reason...

    Interstellar (2014)

    Wife and I enjoyed it via Amazon Instant last night, first time she's ever really heard of time dilation so that was fun talking about that the rest of the evening.

    Furious 7 (2015)

    This one fell flat for me. I like the franchise, and in the context of that I enjoyed the last couple especially (outside of the infinite runway)... but there was too much to this one that just bothered me. I was bored through the first act or so, shortly after Kurt Russell (who was great) was...

    Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    So is Gordon going to end up filling the 'role' of Lockjaw and they can just have a dog on the royal palace as an easter egg or something? Does seem to be sewing seeds for Civil War, expecting a less than amicable split between these factions of Shield and for that to be a background element...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I play seasons because that's what my friends are playing, Season 2 is my first time playing hardcore too. Otherwise, playing 2.0x with my wife on the PS4.

    Yeah, they just came into stock this week. Wife has been watching like a damn hawk, every day. She got this one: Amazon.com: Acer Chromebook 15 CB5-571-C09S (15.6-Inch Full HD IPS, 4GB RAM, 32GB SSD): Computers Accessories

    The Order: 1886

    Looks like MSRP on the collector's edition has been reduced to $59, it's not even on sale, just listed at that price on Amazon, wonder if other sites haven't made the change yet is all.

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

    I could see slim revisions of these pretty bulky consoles, but not hardware upgrades that would only serve to splinter the user base. Maybe if they're done in an unnecessary way like supplementary hardware to support the VR efforts, and current owners would have to buy an expansion kit...

    They're trying to figure out how to handle the network load and not piss off their paying customers is everything I've seen to defend it. They need to just get it over with, it will he overloaded for a week two and then subside. I wouldn't be surprised if we just get the full version instead...

    Yeah. The Crew has demo up today too on both platforms for everyone to sample how bad I've read it is. Driveclub is just a really nice looking game, would like to add it to the collection digitally at some point. The more simulation-style games I've historically sucked at (impatient, all...

    Don't regret the PS4 at all, but this year it's only been used for Diablo now that my wife has started playing it (might be best couch co-op game ever), The Order for the 7 hours or so it took to complete that game and return it to Redbox, and Madden. Madden is on EA Access now so I'm trading...

    Wondering why they're doing application backup to external HDD but not just allowing you to install to and play from it too.

    I think next week we'll get her fending off attackers with some semblance of control. Then faint or something of course leading to her capture anyways.

    Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    Maybe I just don't care about Ward and 33, but this episode was pretty flat for me. Just setup for the craziness of Coulson's team being dismantled next week.

    15% in-game coupons dropping for Zen store stuff is clever. Got me to bite on the Black Dragon Ioun Stone.

    Neverwinter: PC

    So I just did the dailies associated with assisting the harpers... and can do nothing else. So this is basically a gating mechanism? When time expires if I've done what it's asked it opens up the next (Order of the Gauntlet), then the process repeats for the duration of the 'campaign' ?

    Suggestions for Gateway? I've got like level 12 leadership, almost 13... and like platesmithing and mailsmithing at 4-5. Should I buy a 4th companion or is there an in-game companion I can buy/farm? I've got a vicious dire wolf, phoera and a damaran shepherd and got autoassigned a gimp for my...

    Virtual Reality

    I agree, this is what will most heavily influence my first VR purchase as early as this fall if these consumer units really launch. The idea that Valve is building a platform with the VIVE the first piece of it has me hopeful that people will just fall into line with what they're doing to some...

    Neverwinter: PC

    My toon that I haven't played since a bit after launch is only 37, a cleric. Logged in last night... omg I have so many of those charms/enchantments, but at least loot is more manageable than Marvel Heroes. Once I got my powers and feats reset a huge health bar appeared on my screen. Checked...

    It's a balance, more loyalty and play of their titles as the result of cross-buy may equal more DLC purchases and players willing to put more investment into a game/franchise. I'm not the gamer I used to be, but even when I had a lot more time it was things like Steam sales that resulted in...

    They threw a bone to the Droid Turbo users waiting on Lollipop still and said we'll be going straight to 5.1. Yay I guess.

    Yeah, wondering if Dish has an exclusive locked up with Disney or they're just too expensive for Sony to add at current prices.

    Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    I wonder if this could lead to Coulson being freed up to start Secret Warriors / SWORD / Secret Avengers. Probably starting to set up any ties to Age of Ultron also.

    House of Cards

    I wouldn't be very disappointed if by the middle of next season the focus is on the Dunbar family and administration than the Underwoods. This season made me ready to move on from Frank and Claire, if not the series in general. Aside from some of the Russian stuff around episode 8-9, and some...

    The Order: 1886

    So there's been no DLC announcements for this thus far? With how they reused some fights and assets you'd think they wrap up some trimmed-for-time content together a couple more 'episodes' as an add-on for this title. Could do some vampire-centric stuff, maybe something from the perspective of...
