Why? I 100% need it, but not right now, so this is relevant to my interests.

I don't love every game, I tend to make very good game purchases. Sometimes I'll get caught in the hype of something, like Dead Island (what a buggy waste of time). The games I do love such as the Dead Space series (still happy that I won the first game and I was sent concept art with it), Batman, etc are damn near the same stuff you guys like. I'll stick with what I've been saying AC: Revelations is going to be the best out of the series, even if the sci-fi elements are weak.
Anyway, glad to see I'm not alone on Saints Row. It's nice to play a game that doesn't take itself serious, compared to the tons of dead serious games.

Softmodding the Wii takes like 10 minutes and then you download any game from the Internet. Somewhere in the board in a Wii thread I posted the link with the instructions, or just google it.

yeah i did that already, fucking ruled! thanks for that link if i didnt say it in that thread already. i dont have a dvd burner or an external hd yet though so i cant play wii games until i get either one of those. it will happen eventually and i will be stoked!

Amazon just sent me a notice that Metal Gear will be with me come next week. At this point it's become obvious I want to create some sort of Scrooge McDuck type gaming vault filled with games I need to play just so I can dive into and swim around in.

also pissed that they're excluding MGS1 and the original Portable Ops in the bundle.

I don't want to gum up the good vibes of the Skyrim thread because I am genuinely happy for (and jealous of) all those about to embark on glorious journeys. That said,

I can't be the only one who looks at an image like this and sees revolting tacky bullshit, right? I'm not trying to claim the graphics are outdated or anything - I'm talking about aesthetic choices. The same shiny sheen of crap made it impossible for me to watch my girlfriend & friends play Oblivion without getting totally detached. It's neither realistic nor cinematic... rather it seems fully devoted to (or accepting of?) the fact that it looks like a game. This is not a ubiquitous problem - certain outstanding games overcome the challenge (Portal & Dead Space games, most "gritty" nowadays FPS, and the ultimate-of-all-time example: Shadow of the Colossus). Eh?

Steam has been hacked! Go change your passwords, I don't have credit card or barely any info on mine, but I know majority of you guys use it.

I like how Steam doesn't send an email out to it's userbase advising them of this hack, nor allow me to change my fucking password despite the fact that they've been hacked.

Welp, time to watch my Credit Card for suspicious bullshit.

That's a great example that I would've brought up if it wouldn't have sounded insanely queer in an already queer post - James Cameron talked extensively about how generating the visual feel of that movie (a huge task since the majority is CGI) is absolutely NOT "realistic" and is deliberately cinematic. To round out the cinematic analogies: Avatar works at creating a cinematic feel, District 9 succeeds with a realistic feel, while Star Wars prequels look like videogames in the same way Elder Scrolls games do.
