Re: The Bill's Now Playing Video Game Thread (Now with Bames
if you're only really planning to play games and not do video editing or any other kind of high-end computing, there's no reason to get an i7. spend the difference in prices on something else. i think you might average about a 5fps increase in a game with an i7.
revengeance ran at 60fps on last gen consoles, so that sounds like a bullshit recommendation to me.

if there's anybody in the world who'd be fucking unobservant enough to actually damage themselves with trap-soap I guess it'd be the guy with dialup in 2007

I love the part about Tetris - It reminds me of the end of the movie Wargames.

Re: The Bill's Now Playing Video Game Thread (Now with Bames
Thanks, man. The graphics card I'm getting smokes the recommended one on Steam, so I figured that was the case. All the other 360 era game recommendations are below my systems stats and then some. Outside of Halo, 360 doesn't have any pure 360 exclusives I care about, so this thing is going to retire it to the attic. I still never touched Resistance 3, Jaks collection, nor the Ratchet collection so the PS3 survives. Also, Heavy Rain is still there on the shelf, more as a reminder that I love Riley and Geoff's tit for tats than anything else.copstache wrote:if you're only really planning to play games and not do video editing or any other kind of high-end computing, there's no reason to get an i7. spend the difference in prices on something else. i think you might average about a 5fps increase in a game with an i7.

Whenever the hell I do play it, if I do something wrong and not see some video game boobs I'll snap the disk in half.

Re: The Bill's Now Playing Video Game Thread (Now with Bames
The PC versions of the Mass Effect games don't have controller support. I think there are mods for 1 and 2, but not for 3. Course if you're going to buy those again so you can retire the 360, you can also just get them on PS3 for next to nothing by now.The Bill wrote:Outside of Halo, 360 doesn't have any pure 360 exclusives I care about, so this thing is going to retire it to the attic.

Re: The Bill's Now Playing Video Game Thread (Now with Bames
That's irritating. I actually have them for the PSN as well. They were on sale back when I bought the Sony Golds and I was planning on retiring the 360 then. Of course, that's before I got the amp and superior headphones that also use the 360.spacehamster wrote:The PC versions of the Mass Effect games don't have controller support.

Hadn't heard about this before you brought it up, but apparently there is, yeah. But there's also the fact that the ME team is working on a new game, so who knows.The Bill wrote: Anyhow, isn't there talk about ME series re-whatever for the new consoles?
Sadly, I would totally buy the games again on PS4. And play the shit out of them.

Re: The Bill's Now Playing Video Game Thread (Now with Bames
Not only did I order the PC, but I pre-ordered Grim Fandango, and bought nu-new brand new all new Resident Evil. Is the GameCube version a decent bit different from the PSOne, because shit seems a lot different vs my play of it over a year ago.

Re: The Bill's Now Playing Video Game Thread (Now with Bames
What's this game's official name? Resident Evil HD Remaster? Well, fuck you to purists and virgin nerds, but once you go new control scheme, tank controls can stick it, brother. Tank controls are for unhygienic losers that cry in the bathroom because even though they painted themselves in black face, their imaginary anime girl friend still won't fake touch them. New controls are for the Caesars and Conan the barbarians of the world. Jesus Christ, like I'm going to stick with operating a car with books tied around my shoes and sticks attached to the wheel, or am I going to grow up and buy a fucking sports car that drives fucking well and bitches are snorting coke off my balls. Fuck off.
Didn't care for the game when I fussed with it in the 90's. Like it in a sort of nostalgic way two years ago. Now, game rules number super excellent hour. Make RE2, you fucking gooks. Fuck it, make Code Name Veronica and whatever the hell they had as well, I'll buy it.

You never played the GameCube RE remake? Burn em or blow them heads off.
Just beat RE3 for the 20th time. It was not rewarding....

Re: The Bill's Now Playing Video Game Thread (Now with Bames
No, sir. I have not. To be completely honest here, I think I blew it. I thought I was a hot shot and I'd do search and destroy missions then go back and fiddle with the puzzle stuff. Seems I've left a lot of zombies around that still have heads, so essentially I just made more work for myself. I think I'll come back to this game in a month or so, and start from scratch.Ghost Dad wrote:You never played the GameCube RE remake?
Tonight is Friday, time to get back into GTA V. Haven't played it in two weeks. Last time I did I think I won a million dollars in the stock market then blew a ton of that cash on colored weapons. I think I need to buckle down and hit the main missions hard. Love 90% of this game, but I've been at this since before Thanksgiving (USA). Time to get getting on.

I'm seeing that as missions go by its less about the jerk off annoying characters and more down to business. Good!FVBTVS wrote:i actually put a little time into gta 5. its the first one ive sat down and played since vice city really. im really loving it.

Re: The Bill's Now Playing Video Game Thread (Now with Bames
Actually it turns out that the higher your difficulty is, the fewer orbs the game gives you and on Normal it's just about enough by the end of the game, so it's probably not even possible to do this on Titan. Haha.spacehamster wrote:Yeah, I know.

Once you get all of them, the chests give you like 1000 reds each.
Looks like I'll be playing through the whole game again on Easy. That'll help with the Labyrinth trophy as well, which as it turns out I don't have yet. It's fucking boring on Easy, though, you practically have to try to take damage. The Poseidon fight was ridiculous. Mash square to win.

Re: The Bill's Now Playing Video Game Thread (Now with Bames
Ah, makes sense.
If it's any consolation, running through it on easy takes about 2 hours. I did the aMAZEd trophy first try and not even on the easiest setting -- it's super easy as long as you don't touch any of the instakills.

Re: The Bill's Now Playing Video Game Thread (Now with Bames
Took a sneak peak at a walk through to see where I stand on finishing GTA V. Seems that I have a lot more to go, and some of it requires more flying. Fuck! I did okay Friday with the helicopter trying to scare some folks and I landed it without dying, but I wasn't trilled and don't really want to do it anymore. I hate to quit on a game I put so much time into, but skipping missions might have to become a thing.

I'm stuck on the "Kamikaze" trophy in Heavy Rain (the one where you have to drive the "best path" on the highway. Can't wait to be done with this game.
Anyone else getting The Dying Light on Tuesday? I watched some Twitch streams yesterday, it looks pretty fun.
