System Wars Lounge V 84: May 2021 is looking great for games

LOL looks I miss one hell of a party @wandering_halls

@davillain-: Oh I think we missed you. 😅

Dealing with banks is possibly the worst thing ever. Outside of beetroot.

Oh, it was interesting. That's for sure.

Looks like IAmDavey deactivated his account.

@wandering_halls: @lebanese_boy: Took my lunch break 2 hours and surprised Verbtex got the job done since he's not here all the time. Thanks @verbtex

He got upset with MS not supporting JRPG cause they are only supporting Bethesda and nothing more which is why he left and felt that SW was a waste of his time. Oh well🤷‍♂️

The SW is a waste of time.

Au contraire. This place is the epitome of enlightenment.

What did he really expect? Lol.

I mean, you gotta give it to dude. Nobody trolls like this guy. Right smack in the middle of all the resurrected Silent Hill/P.T.?Abandoned/Konami psychodrama.....and he posts this. T-pose + Policenauts = P.T. Call him a genius if you want, or don't, but his freaking mind just does not operate like a normal person's.

The crazy SOB is really gonna pull it off.

About to give up on a GPU and just buy an xbox series x.

Unfortunate that Davey deactivated his account here, seemed like a cool dude.

The GPU prices are slowly coming down due to Bitcoin is dying in China. Wait a bit longer before pulling the trigger for XSX.

Eww.

well the fallen order ps5 upgrade is pretty shit.

if it's not in performance (60fps) mode it's choppy af, there's no way this is anywhere close to 30fps. its bad. borderline unplayable. if it is in perf mode any improvements are barely noticeable to how it was pre patch. not only that but it's not an auto update like every other game, you need to manually download through the ps store. it takes ages to download like everything from sony does. and there's an option to import previous saves but it crashes every time i tried to load one so had to start a new game then go back and retry the old saves to get it to work.

modern console gaming ladies and gentlemen

@davillain-: I've waited this long I guess I can wait a little longer.

One day I'll have chest hair.

You got it. ;). I only responded because I got an email about it, lol.

Oh please God yes!

Amazon prime day was good I guess. 42 peices of Tupperware, juicer, hair curling iron, and a firestick 4k so I can install Kodi. Also got assassins creed Valhalla ps5 and watchdogs legions ps5 for like $50 total at bestbuy. Pretty sure watchdogs is gonna suuuuck though.

I got a Ring Video Doorbell, a couple pair of Levis and one of those Samsung Galaxy smart tags for my keys.

Make a good opening for a Tom Clancy game.

always find i have to look reallyhard to find something to buy on prime day. all i get is page after page of tat. not a video game, book or anything interesting in sight. the mother of all buying for buying's sake events. ended up settling for alcohol. at least it'll get used.

considering re-watching game of thrones

Don't think they ever plan on fixing the Guilty Gear: Strives network issues. Forcing the player for minutes at a time to sit to idle, hurdle through menus and rooms. A to B to C to D rather than a simple A to Z.

Arc appears hell-bent on gimmicks over efficiency, self-sabotaging their own work in the name of being different, when different doesn't automatically equate to better.

Yeah it's shite man. I played ranked early on, just enough to get to floor 10 and then dropped it. Too much hassle.

Now I just go to a park and wait for match in training mode. Still boots back out to park on occasion. But at least when you do get matched up, can play long ass sets with no interruption. Really the best way to play right now.

At this point, just hope they fix private lobby invites. Playing with friends is a pain to get started. Also fix the "communicating with server" nightmare. Shouldn't take that long, and shouldn't happen every time you're back to main menu.

This is the shit they're invested your Netflix money into.

Anybody else picking up Mario Golf this week? I need a reason to dust off the Switch and I remember having a blast with the ones on N64 and GC. Hopefully they don't find a way to mess it up.

@NathanDrakeSwag: does it use motion controls? I know they are taboo around here but Wii sports is (mostly) super fun and i wouldn't mind a deeper dive into a sport with the more precise joycons

Looks like it does.

I don't remember playing much of the golf in Wii Sports. The tennis was fun as hell with a room of people though.

@NathanDrakeSwag: yeah boxing sucked, but tennis and golf and bowling are good clean fun. I wish the Switch came with a Switch Sports bundle

Not as bad as they introduce Cuties but still, WTF with this Furry crap?

@davillain-: If this is what the hiked sub is to pay for, doubt Disney has much to worry about.

Which reminds me, been watching that Mighty Ducks show, very wholesome. Nowhere near as good as Cobra Kai, and surprised Emilio Estevez is still alive.

John McAfee has apparently been found dead. I knew he was in trouble but I couldn't fathom this would happen.

Pretty suspicious.

If Power Rangers is weird, it's root series, Sentai is REALLY f***ed up!

I remember in the Power rangers the blue one was always useless, even the putty soldiers could beat the shit out of him.

He was supposed to be the "smart" role, but he never really done anything smart. Just got chased around in the park.

Even though this is technically "Legends", always cool when video game stuff gets integrated.

“But the Force cannot be treated deferentially,” he added as a few final tendrils sparked from his fingertips. “In order to summon and use lightning properly, you will someday have to be on the receiving end of its power, as a means of taking the energy inside yourself.”

Sidious watched the last of the brush fires burn out, then said, “Will I eventually be physically transformed?”

“Into some aged, pale-skinned, raspy-voiced, yellow-eyed monster, you mean. Such as the one you see before you.” Plagueis gestured to himself, then lowered himself to the ground.

“Surely you are acquainted with the lore: King Ommin of Onderon, Darths Sion and Nihilus. But whether it will happen to you, I can’t say. Know this, though, Sidious, that the power of the dark side does not debilitate the practitioner as much as it debilitates those who lack it.”

He grinned with evil purpose.

“The power of the dark side is an illness no true Sith would wish to be cured of.”

gsc dubiously translated response to criticism over rambo-esque action sequences in stalker 2 e3 reveal trailer

For the trailer, we deliberately turned the AI ​​down to a minimum for maximum cinematography. In the game itself, you can choose How many bullets, and how often you catch them.

@Macutchi: Makes sense. Difficulty on the OG Stalker games make a fairly huge difference, mainly in damage. Last segment was purely to show off how proud they are of their sparkly sparkly pylons.

Which, was kind of dope. Great trailer overall, loved the dude dancing.

My friend linked me this tweet today. 🤔

@uninspiredcup: i think most people took it for what it was and didn't read too much into it. just one or two overly dramatic types on here willing to write the whole game off based on a few seconds of combat footage.

and yeah those are some mighty fine looking pylons tbf

Lol, no joke. But it's even crazier than that. People try to tell you shit wasn't suspicious, that you're a conspiracy nut, whatever. Meanwhile, this:

Sonic Mania and Horizon Chase Turbo are Epic's free games for the week. Grab it while it's still free.

Already have Sonic Mania on Steam but not Horizon Chase Turbo so I'll grab it on EGS. Thanks for the heads up. I'm more open-minded towards EGS and don't even regret using the client either. If they have the game I want to play up front before someone else gets it, I'll get it on EGS.

Thanks for the heads up.

Despite ubisoft being an average dev in my eyes I still find myself purchasing their Ass Creed series. Not because I play them no but because of their insanely cheap sales bundle. I checked my email for past transactions and counted that I only spent $50 for 7 Ass Creed games and all of them except Black Flag is the ultimate deluxe edition that would have cost buyers up to $100 each back then. Will I ever play these Ass Creed games idk, probably never. Waiting for $10 ultimate deluxe superior HD season pass remix edition of AC:Valhalla to complete the set of all recent AC games on PS4/PS5.

Unfortunately yes.

Yet another Halloween sequel. Of a reboot, of a reboot.

Although the last movie was legit good imo.

Thats what people do. I (ie me) always search and then judge the game. instead of jumping to conclution.

Crysis 2 is more linear than original = Dumbed down

STALKER 2 being more open and bigger than STALKER 1 = Dumbed down

LOL the logic of PC frauds never made sense.
