I'm currently playing Conker: Live & Reloaded.

FUCK LAVA SURFING

Dynamithix 07-30-2011 10:25 PM

Conker is motherfucking beast.

I've played it probably total of 100-150 hours with my friend, we knew every little glitch in every multiplayer map. Good times.

I just pre-ordered From Dust. Looks like a amazing game and i can't wait to play it

I loved playing that game over Xbox Live back when I had my original Xbox. Sadly playing it on the 360 is near impossible as the frame rate runs very low :(

Isn't that an XBLA game? How can you pre order it?

Steam.

JennyGenesis 07-31-2011 05:17 AM

Thanks for clearing that up :)

Do you get some special discount for preordering from steam then?

I dunno about discounts, but I'm pretty sure you got a shaman mask as a TF2 item.

JennyGenesis 07-31-2011 05:21 AM

I don't understand the point of preordering something you will be downloading...

Manco 07-31-2011 05:25 AM

Pre-order bonuses!

JennyGenesis 07-31-2011 05:34 AM

I don't use steam.

I preorder games because:

1. If there's high demand I have my copy secured
2. Sometimes they come in cool cases
3. Exclusive bonuses
4. EXTRAS!!!!!!!!

Alice: Madness Returns. The art style is fantastic, it's such a pretty game. It's a nice platformer too.

On Steam, there's usually a discount.

You pay extra for that stuff.

JennyGenesis 08-01-2011 12:30 AM

Or in my case you don't since I'll be getting rid of Kinect(piece of shit) to give me a discount, I want all that stuff but don't feel like paying £70 for it all.

Mac Sirloin 08-01-2011 09:19 AM

So you're selling your 150$ Kinect to get a Collectible Dodge Challenger?

Well, clearly you're the savvy buyer.

JennyGenesis 08-01-2011 01:22 PM

Kinect sucks!

Dodge Challengers are sexy!

Dynamithix 08-01-2011 01:28 PM

Man, I'm on the edge which to pre-order; Deus Ex: Human Revolution Augmented Edition or Dark Souls Limited Edition. Both look really nice, but I can only afford one of them.

Dark Souls:

Deus Ex:

JennyGenesis 08-01-2011 01:33 PM

I have no interest in either games but it seems to me that Deus Ex is offering the better goodies.

Dynamithix 08-01-2011 01:49 PM

Really? I thought the opposite. I mean, I'm more interested in Deus Ex because of the gameplay and such, but Dark Souls is something different and it seems really good and I've heard that Demon Souls is awesome but challenging. And it comes with an art book, a soundtrack, a guide book, behind the scenes and a different cover for the price of the regular game if you pre-order it. That's fucking awesome.

I've yet to decide though.

Wings of Fire 08-01-2011 02:12 PM

Put it this way.

If Dark Souls is anything like Demon Souls and you intend to play it... you're going to need that guidebook.

Gwan-Thwei 08-01-2011 02:13 PM

I just finished Portal 2, and it was pretty ossim. I finally understand why you had to shoot at the moon at the end.

Dynamithix 08-01-2011 02:18 PM

WoF, I'm sure of that.

Gwan, nice spoilers.

JennyGenesis 08-01-2011 02:42 PM

Deus Ex comes with more in game content which means more to me. Personal preference I suppose.

You're almost certainly wrong there.

My flatmates and I have wracked up hundreds of hours on Demon Souls.

Dynamithix 08-01-2011 02:46 PM

So Dark Souls it is.

JennyGenesis 08-01-2011 02:48 PM

Maybe Dark Souls is the better game, I don't know because I have no interest in either game. But I was just stating that in game content means more to me when it comes to extras.

Daxter King 08-01-2011 05:10 PM

There is a month in between them, perhaps buy Deus Ex, enjoy it, and sell it in time for Dark Souls? Impressions from the leak and early reviews are pointing Deus Ex to be quite the game. Both seem like you can sink a lot of time into them, personally Im hyped for Deus Ex more.

Mac Sirloin 08-01-2011 05:21 PM

Why not preorder both standard editions and then buy the manual with the extra money?

Dynamithix 08-01-2011 05:27 PM

Don't want no lame-o standard editions. And I almost never sell my games unless they sucked or I don't play them at all.

Anyways, I decided that I'll pre-order Dark Souls. Asked my mum if she could pre-order Deus Ex for me and I'd pay later, she's still thinking 'bout it. That way I could get them both.

And why would I even bother with a standard edition when I can get a limited edition for the same price.

Dynamithix 08-02-2011 05:28 AM

And your point is?

JennyGenesis 08-02-2011 05:31 AM

Backing up your point.

Dynamithix 08-02-2011 06:02 AM

Oh, lol, completely misunderstood that.

Anyways, let's stop the off-topic talk. I've been playing Kung Fu Panda. Just for achievements though. The game's okay, but incredibly dumb humor.

Mr. Bungle 08-02-2011 08:41 AM

I bought Demon's Souls the other day. It's really hard.

JennyGenesis 08-02-2011 08:52 AM

I started playing Mirrors Edge again. I don't seem to be enjoying it as much as the first time I played it through but it's still awesome, the speedrun achievements are just ridiculous. I can't get the one for Chapter 01, only one I managed to get so far was for Chapter 00.

Dynamithix 08-02-2011 09:16 AM

I enjoyed Mirror's Edge a lot, but the speedrunning achievements really are complete bullshit. You have to be a real pro to get almost any of them.

Mac Sirloin 08-02-2011 11:15 AM

Been playing Dead Rising 2 a bit. I like it a lot better than the first game, though some of the bosses are just complete bullshit. They should find some way to justify the fact that shooting a crazy stripper with a shotgun doesn't slow her down for a second. That kind of shit is just stupid.

Daxter King 08-02-2011 12:22 PM

Mac do you have Gold Live? My friend let me borrow Dead Rising 2, but I haven't touched, I probably would for some co-op action.

Jordan 08-02-2011 02:54 PM

Mirror's Edge started making me really angry. I remember shouting sexist comments at the woman when I got it on Christmas day.
