I think you just get a certain amount of things for free to share with neighbors when you hit a threshold of some services. There was some mention of this in a review or Q&A that I read, that every ambulance you have you also get a regional service ambulance or something like that. For other...

I've only been able to play it for a couple of brief sessions during the betas and find myself poking around streams to get a fix. Tuesday can't get here soon enough. Only real scary problem I've seen is someone dropping 90% of their population (playing at fastest speed) for no real reason...

This doesn't fix the problem you are describing about lag between switching channels in general, but there's a better solution for the 'watching 2 games' use case. Press down, it will say you're about to start Double Play. Press it again, the channel will change... now go to the second game...

Did you point out to him that the Watch Dogs demo at the Sony presser was running on a PC with PS4-equivalent specs?

There's been a bit of discussion with the media since, this is where that came from. http://www.destructoid.com/psn-purch...--246229.phtml Sony has since clarified that they may be able to honor previous PSN purchases, but won't say if they will. Unrelated, they've said there will be no...

So I've won our first 3 games of Twilight Imperium... game just tends to start swinging my way and nobody can stop me or someone grossly overlooks something and I win abruptly. Think a couple of my friends might kinda hate the game now as a result. It's not my fault if everyone's carriers...

Per Destructoid/Sony comments PSN purchases won't be moved over to PS4.

It can be matched to a degree though, if the next Xbox can stream content to any Windows 8 device for example. Not necessarily as convenient as already having a handheld in the market of course. If to edge out MS's console you have to spend a couple hundred more dollars it's only so much of...

So you're saying we'll need extra waste management in our region, that can be done.

I like the Vita integration but would want to see what v2 of that hardware looks like before buying into it. In a way that could also get people to buy a Vita and no games. Would be nice to get some options there, a Vita with clickable thumbsticks and L2/R2 buttons. Hell, make a a device...

Thought the games were kinda lacking, but bar has been set pretty high for the functionality the console is providing.

I flip through the kiosks from time to time, and Rayman has been the only game I've ever seen playable - and that demo has since been removed from every kiosk I'd played it on previously.

Doubt we'll see actual dates and launch details until later.

If I had to muster a list, this is what comes to mind, but the longer I think about it the more difficult it gets. 1. EQ 2. A mario game (either 3 or World) 3. Tribes From here I'm torn on some really good experiences, like the story in Call of Duty that's the same story of...

Less concerned about sticker price, more about all that's required to go along with it... subscriptions, fees for backward compatibility, accessory pricing, etc. For all we know the new Dual Shock could debut at $80 for all we know. I expect a pretty strong push for Vita (could be wrong, could...

I love GL, but as soon as I miss a few issues I say fuck it and wait for the next 500-issue mega event start so I can read the previous 500-issue mega event. Otherwise, I almost completely ignore DC every Wednesday.

All I've heard that's really stuck about New 52 for the most part is how good the bat books are. I haven't been reading Death in the Family, it worth reading despite the ending?

Boo. Didn't realize being in the last test didn't get you into this one.

More interested in instant game demos and trials rather than streaming PS3 games, since there's no reason that will be free. Rentals and stuff via streaming could be an interesting innovation too as long as you can try it out and make sure latency, legibility of text, etc aren't an issue...

To those suggesting other home consoles have had months like this, most haven't. This kind of figure is only comparable to the Dreamcast and Virtual Boy sales (Vita too, which only sold ~30k units over this same 5 week period, but that's not a home console either). One article I read said US...

So apparently only 55k units sold in the US the first 5 weeks of the year, less than $15m in software sold for the same period.

Liking Superior quite a bit, Hulk, All New X-Men, and the Avengers books too. Looking forward to Infinity, the event later this year. The upcoming Age of Ultron and the X-Men crossover for Age of Apocalypse and X-Treme X-Men both aren't interesting to me at all.

Chris Pratt picked to lead the Guardians of the Galaxy.

Wife picked up on that too

It's like a dark version of what would have happened if Josh Lyman from West Wing ever made it into Congress. Really liked the talking to the camera stuff (and the occasional glare/glance, lol), for some reason Don Cheadle doing it in House of Lies made was one of many reasons that I can't...

The crazy 2k bundles are back on sale at Amazon, $20 for Civ V + expansion and Civ 4 Complete... Bioshock 1, 2 and Spec Ops: The Line. $5 off if you buy a bunch of stuff from them.

Free app in the store called Steam Tile. They're able to be live tiles scrolling through achievements too, but I turned that off.

LAN coming up is what got me to start organizing mine a little more. I have so many in Steam it's hard to even start tinkering with them there, so just added the relevant games to the metro UI and started tinkering with that. Think this is our first LAN where we've actually bought all the...

Yeah, tilt-shift looks either optional or only for specific angles.

The style kind of insulates it from that, and despite not being a fan of the theme Pandaria is pretty nice looking.

Yeah, my problems with PS2 were confined to having to unplug my 360 controller when starting it, a problem they (Sony) eventually fixed. Steam is kind of a joke with Windows 8, kinda funny that 3rd party tools have popped up to make it more friendly to metro because of their tantrums over it...

And/or just posting garbage to get to 5 posts so they can rub one out in screenshots.

I really don't mind many of the revamps, having just played through the redone SM dungeons for the first time a couple of weeks ago, plenty of nostalgia there as you bust through a wall in GY and are now in the cathedral. Would love to see Karazhan, UBRS reworked into relevance.

Yeah, Skylanders is crazy, just passed $500m in sales.

ComicBT is back.

A lot of that depends on how reasonable and necessary the repairs are I think. I wouldn't think they'd be a problem for the most part. A leaking roof or something might be a whole other story though. We just had some broken windows that were able to be fixed within a couple days. I...
