Does the whole situation seem World War-ish to you guys ?

Does the whole situation seem World War-ish to you guys ?

@Young_Charter: No. Russia and Ukraine might fight for a bit, but can't see anyone else getting directly involved. Ukraine will end up being separated.

Bah. In State of Decay, if one of your characters die, they are lost forever. I got my favorite dude killed. :(

What are the specs ?

Hmmm... wow.

Finally finished Guacamelee, Decent game. I was thoroughly impressed with the platforming in the game. Fighting mechanics were well done too.

Started Singularity, that game did not age well lol, kinda fun though.

That happened to me once lol, I need to play that game again.

Haha. Metal Gear!? Kevin Hart knows what's up!

Ordered a 24" IPS monitor...

My current monitor is fine but the viewing angles are just so bad...

i've been getting the upgrade bug really bad. and i don't really have any problems with my current righ. so far i've kept myself from going to newegg, but i think its just a matter of time...

never mind....

Haha yeah.. I really want to upgrade some real parts (CPU, motherboard, gpu) but I don't really need to upgrade any right at this moment... Every time I ask for advice everyone tells me NO NO NO NO NO... So I figured I'd get a nice case and a nice monitor.

its had the cpu overheat a couple times, and i'm still using my sandybridge cpu, so i'm thinking of getting a new CPU and a new fan. wouldn't be *too* expensive. lol. ~365 for both.

I don't think I'll ever actually play binding of isaac because the art style grosses me out, but damn that title screen music is THE BEST.

well, dragons dogma has the best title screen music by default, the binding of isaacs is so fucking good.

made a comment on ign that Free-to-play games on Xbox Live aren't free, because you pay for live. I didn't think people were that butthurt just because of that comment

lol. its like saying the PS+ games are free...gotta love stupid people =P

Eh, if you have an Xbox you are going to have Live anyway.. That is the way I look at the PS4 now because of gating online behind a paywall..

Imo f2p + games with gold games on Xbox Live are free and the "free" games on PS+ are free because I'm not buying either service for the game selection, but the ability to play games online.

Exactly, they are a perk. But not free

Not me or 30+ million 360 users. I play games for singleplayer and i refuse to pay for something i get free on other platforms

A majority of users definitely pay for it... Back in 2006 Xbox Live had a 60% attach rate so I imagine that number is much much higher now.

i know last time i checked there were 30+ millions that didn't have it

If you have sources I wouldn't mind seeing them.. Attach rate for PS+ and XBL is actually pretty interesting to me..

The last time I see Microsoft making attach rates public were back in 2006.

http://www.joystiq.com/2006/07/13/xbox-live-attach-rate-has-grown-50-percent-from-xbox-to-xbox-36/

http://www.gamasutra.com/php-bin/news_index.php?story=10054

Ah, found an article from 2013 saying 46/77m 360 owners have Xbox Live.

Attach rate staying more or less the same.. Interesting.

I'd never own a Xbox without Live though.. Granted, I'll probably never own an Xbox again unless Quantum Break turns out amazing.

I'm still not sure wtf Quantum Break was even supposed to be...

I have no idea... Other than it has tons of FMV and if I remember right it's a typical Remedy third person shooter..

I forgot I finished Alan Wake's American Nightmare last night.. I can't remember what happened but I know I liked it! They use FMV and real time gaming together soooo well in that game. Really excited to see what they do with a better engine, a new IP, and (presumably) a large budget.

sounds low. or is this counting the rrod's?

Not a clue.. I would imagine no, but how would they track that...

Though what is 46 million times 60 dollars? Hint: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

lol. but how would they know? many people who got rrod didn't send it back.

The Lego Movie was good. It had quite a few hilarious moments.

God, why is GameSpot so slow, buggy, and painful to navigate now? :/

Welp, I guess I'll see you all in another year or three.

http://www.forbes.com/sites/insertcoin/2013/04/20/always-on-microsoft-xbox-live-subscriptions-up-to-46m-will-never-be-free/

that was last year, i would say it's around 50 now

"Microsoft says that Xbox Live subscriptionsare up 18% over last year, reaching a grand total of 46M, out of 77M Xboxes sold."

How would you know it's around 50% now? :O

So after not playing it for a while I finally finished Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon.... That ending was hilarious. One of the better DLC's out to date.

Wow.... They let themselves go..

Guys. A new Arkham game, guys. By Rocksteady. Guys, you can drive the batmobile in this one. Oh my god, guys.

Batman Arkham Knight? Yes please. Glad to see Rocksteady back at the helm on this one too. And now that we're not doing any more of that origin bullshit and needing a 'younger' Batmna, can we please get Kevin Conroy back?

Wooo, PS4 or PC though....

Hopefully I'll have a new GPU by then..

What you guys think for release date? This fall would be sweet.

Hazel! How you doing man? Stick around for a bit. We just got this new Lounge and swj hasn't stunk it up too bad yet. Who knows how it'll smell in a year or three. If you hang around you'll just get used to it :P

It says 2014 so I would assume this fall. And I'm probably going PC since idk if I'll even have my PS4 by then.

Fall would be great. I'm really excited to see that it's "next" gen only. That game is going to be so sexy.

And yes, please, let's get Conroy back into the fold.

Is it bad that I'm buying inFamous SS Day 1 JUST to get the Cole DLC even though I don't even have a PS4 yet and probably won't for some time?

Haha, we'll see. Been busy with the army though. Maybe in a bit, and definitely after I get myself a sexy new signature that's sure to get me suspended again. ;)

Dude. :( People use these forums at work!! :P

Anyhow, wow, I would of never pictured you in the army! Good for you man.

Yeah I think that is awesome... Though a strange business decision.. I figured everything was going to be cross gen for a few years.

Being next gen only probably means it will kick the shit outta my GTX 660 though. :P

Arkham Knight is a real dumb name and also doesn't seem to make sense? You can't just mash batman shit together, guys.

Also, reminder that Arkham City was lame.

I loved Arkham City.

But yeah, Arkham Knight doesn't make sense, but does it really matter? It is just branding..

Haha, well, I DO need something to do when I'm sitting in classes. I'm still a university student too, you know.

I'll sit my ass in front of photoshop and see if I can think of something.

I needed something to be negative about and the name is all I know.

loooooooooooooooooool

Wow the army. Good for you man. Hope things are going well. Really looking forward to another seductive anime signature. Unfortunately the new GS doesn't allow gif in sigs so your old sig with the girl eating the cherry or whatever won't work. Just doll something up though. I know you can do it :P
