  1. BattleCry

  3. The threat of Watch Dogs

    Lol! I wonder if you could contact support and get a refund, I'm sure people do that all the time
  4. BattleCry

    Come on you cynical bunch! Let's look at the positives... Looks like at least two classes can be played as either a male of female and not an armoured bikini in site. I say "at least two" as I'm not sure if they'll have a female version of the mechanical armed brawler? If there is I'd be curious about the design and all the pink DLC mechanical arms, oh wait I've become cynical Side thought. The ascetic can't remain humourless for long considering the amount of customisable DLC they'll want to offer
  5. BattleCry

    ...annnnnd with a focus on melee! Only not... We have to keep the shooter fans happy after all
  6. BattleCry

    No gunpowder, but there are laser guns! Why use a sword in a world with energy cannons (I'm calling them energy cannons)
  7. BattleCry

    How does he load them? Also, the off-hand crossbow has a vertical bow. Didn't you know? Vertical crossbow are cool, all the kids are using them Is it a bad thing that's its a total rip-off of TF2. I don't know if it being so blatant will turn people off. "Hey! Stop playing TF2 and come play this poor mans version!"
  8. The threat of Watch Dogs

    Thats strange that they've made it so difficult on PC but actually made it easier on consoles. For example, with Assassin Creed 4 the one time use online pass code thing that you get to deter buying second hand just installed itself, it must have recognised that it was the first time the disc was being used and issued the online pass to my console. So they've done away with having to put in any codes to get the games working on console
  9. PlayStation+

  10. I've realised the health system works the same way as butcher bay. if you remember. the 100 health is actually split into 5 segments of twenty, so for example if you health goes down to 85 it will recharge back to 100. but drop to 75 and it will only recharge to 80. I played most of it on hard but had to lower the difficulty in an underground train station, you should be coming up to it soon. You have to take on 3 ubersoldats and i was getting annihilated, i do wonder if you can jump on the train and skip the fight, maybe that is what you are supposed to do as it was a serious difficulty spike even on medium.
  11. The Dancing Thumb (aka: music recommendations)

    Devon Townsends new concept album side project thing that got funded through a music kickstarter Casualties of Cool STOLEN FROM WIKIPEDIA: Casualties of Cool is the debut album of country rock group Casualties of Cool, consisting of Canadian musicians Devin Townsend and Ché Aimee Dorval. It was partially funded by the crowdfunding site PledgeMusic, and was released on May 14, 2014. The album is a concept album. Background On his blog, Devin Townsend stated, "Casualties of Cool [is] a duo with myself and Che (ki)... It sounds like haunted Johnny Cash songs. Late night music, completely isolated sounding and different than anything I’ve done. Che sings most of the leads, and it’s probably the truest reflection of who I am in life at this point." Concept Townsend described the story as being about a traveller that is lured to a sentient planet, which feeds on the traveller's fear. The traveller finds solace in an old radio and later an old phonograph. Eventually, he confronts his own fear, and his "force of will to not submit to the fear" liberates a woman held inside the planet, which also frees his own soul.
  12. The threat of Watch Dogs

    It is actually very good. I'm just renting it so i can't really comment on value for money. I'd imagine it'll be one of those games that reduces in price rather quickly. i seem to have accumulated like 800 uplay point over the years, does that make me a Uplay lover. He's a Uplay lover, they'll get a hold on you believe it, like no other, Before you know it you'll be on your knees
  13. When I get a self drive car my alcohol consumption is going to go through the roof. This was my amazing dawning realisation when I was reading about the google cars yesterday http://googleblog.blogspot.co.uk/2014/05/just-press-go-designing-self-driving.html
  14. FYI watch_dogs and ass creed are in the same ubiverse. How could they not be? The watch:dogs corporation is mentioned in an assissin creed 4 hacked email. http://www.vg247.com/2013/10/29/easter-egg-ties-assassins-creed-4-to-watch-dogs/ FYI2 it's a television series not season I love that the thumbs have the exact same reaction as me but in reverse
  15. The threat of Watch Dogs

    So is anyone actually playing this? It had the largest amount of GameStop preorders of any game EVER and it has just sold more day one copies of any previous Ubisoft game. So someone's gotta have it? (I have actually got it, but I must first rid the world of nazis before I can don that iconic cap)

    Ok, scene for scene :obtusesmiley:
  17. The E3 Retrospectapalooza

    I predict that almost everything will get "leaked" or revealed before E3 as why the hell would you announce your game at the same time as everyone else guaranteeing you only receive a tiny sliver of the limelight Case in point New Bethesda free to play game: Battlecry is Bethesda’s take on Team Fortress envisioned by Half-Life 2 and Dishonored designer Viktor Antonov (Dishonored 2 will get shown at one of the conferences innit) http://www.vg247.com/2014/05/28/battlecry-game-bethesda-pc-trailer/
  18. Movie/TV recommendations

    say's the man you hasn't seen Broadchurch. It all looks a bit soulless, perhaps half of it is the cinematography, Broadchurch had really nice shots and clever use of the camera. It all looks very perfunctory and stale here. I would say go watch the broadchurch trailer on youtube but it gives away the whole series, you should just watch Broadchurch
  19. Movie/TV recommendations

    Weeeeeeeeeeeeiiiiiiiiirrrrrrrird (this is the American word for word, shot for shot remake of Broadchurch... but with terrible acting) http://youtu.be/s9IWvbbZPZc everone should go watch Broadchurch it was stellar
  20. The E3 Retrospectapalooza

    as cameras are banned they'll have to carve images into wood?
  21. The E3 Retrospectapalooza

    That game company will show off their new joint at the Sony conference http://www.forbes.com/sites/davidewalt/2014/05/27/thatgamecompany-raises-7-million-to-develop-ambitious-new-game/ I hope we got some concrete confirmations of VR games. Like the Witness and No Mans Sky releasing the same day as Morpheus with VR support
  22. The threat of Watch Dogs

    I guess the labels are supposed to be the data collected by the big bad surveillance company you're fighting against. So that's ubisofts get out if free card, it's not us, it's "the man", man I wonder what my labels would be? Probably "rad dude" "delusional"
  23. Movie/TV recommendations

    X-men: Days of JLaw hobbling What magneto does with those train tracks was beyond ridiculous and kind of ruined the film for me. I've just read up about the next movie (which will feature the 1970s crew) and the destruction will be even bigger! Apocalypse has power like that of a natural disaster :/ I'll catch it on tele
  24. PlayStation+

    No, i believe they were on playstation plus about a year ago... just before i signed up so i missed out on them. I don't think they recycle games on plus so there's no chance of them coming back on for free. They've been on sale quite a few times recently maybe grab um next time they are 50% off looks like portable ops and MGS3 are individually half price at the moment i the MAy madness deal, just not the HD collection https://store.sonyentertainmentnetwork.com/#!/en-gb/games/metal-gear-solid-3-snake-eater-hd-edition-ps-vita/cid=EP0101-PCSB00176_00-MGSHDVITA0000000?gclid=CjkKEQjw75CcBRCz2LiEs5OPsZoBEiQADgUma2-PUzEErYIvpD17yg5m6jLAYp1_eDKZ1dTYeIxfRdzw_wcB
