@Blabadon: I thought the atmosphere, music, and feel of the game was really cool. And the story was leading up to some cool places. Unfortunately, even though I wasn't very good I still thought the game didn't control the greatest (on Vita) and the enemies were cheap. I also am not a fan of that style of play; the bad stuff came together to make a very tedious game.

And yeah, PS+. Looking forward to trying each of them!

@Blabadon: It's only a matter of time before shovel knight comes to the good handheld. I wouldn't wish that d-pad on anybody for shovel knight.

Played the game on Wii U myself. Was amazing.

@darkspineslayer: @Zassimick: In that case, may I suggest you skip Fez and DC for now and start Stealth Inc instead? It was part of PS+ and it's fantastic, especially on Vita.

I know DSS can back me up here. How's Shovel Knight on the 3DS besides the D Pad which I don't use.

@Blabadon: @Zassimick: Yes, Stealth Inc. the perfect blend of Portal, Metal Gear and N+.

You would use the circle pad? Your funeral.

@darkspineslayer: I dislike the 3DS' circle pad but I've never been one for D Pads. Is it worth waiting for on Vita? Is the game good enough I might double dip?

@Blabadon: It's a great game. I would recommend you play it. My only hang up is the hardware you have to play it on. I loved it when I used the Wii U pro controller (a input device designed for human hands)

We're not talking Castlevania precise here, but it is a rather demanding platformer. If you think you'll be fine with the 3DS circle pad, go for it. Otherwise, I might suggest waiting. I know I'll double dip once it hits PSN.

Agreed. I saw both in the theatres. Disappointing.

Yeah, you know they just weren't good. Divergent just had this crappy lead female and this pseudo-crap world/order that didn't make much sense. Add in the lackluster performances and just a bunch of other crap wrong with the movie... definitely glad I didn't pay for it. And Transcendence just felt off the entire time. Like, it wasn't a horrible film, just... it was just there.

And I beat Hotline Miami last night, well got through the credits. Can't say I enjoyed the game; I enjoyed aspects of it but I didn't really have fun while playing it. Saw there was more to play after the credits and I was just like, "nope." Now it's time to try Dragon's Crown and FEZ. ^_^

Completely agree. Divergent seemed like it would be a fun movie, but it was predictable and made very little sense. Transcendence was just sort of eh. Not terrible, just forgettable.

I settled with this for now http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16815129011
The 10% off put it at a nice price, if it doesn't work, then I can blame myself for not listening. :P

That said, thanks to a friend over on the ign side, I was able to get my 5760 x 1080 wallpapers to display correctly now.

Yeah a couple of hours ago but only in the beta client so far, it looks pretty good. I have no idea if it affects the custom skins or not.

And speaking of UIs.. *looks around* ...Did something change here?

I am a "beta participator" too. Haven't seen any changes... I doubt they can top the skin I'm using anyways :P

It's EA so probably the latter although they gave out Bf3 for free. It doesn't matter anyway, I can't stand the in browser menu a game. I hope Battlefront doesn't use it.

Nevermind. Found it lol

You can also now select multiple games in the library at the same time, so adding things to categories is no longer horrific. :P

Dementium 2 HD is $2 on steam. I couldn't pass it up seeing as I enjoyed the series on the DS...though looking at Reviews I don't think I'm gonna like the port.

Funny, I have this program called Flux that turns down screen brightness at night, and the snipping tool used the dimmed values, while using prntscreen didn't (so it's darker and has more contrast).
