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 03:18 PM

WoF, I'm sure of that.

Gwan, nice spoilers.

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 03:46 PM

So Dark Souls it is.

JennyGenesis 08-01-2011 03:48 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 06:10 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 06:21 PM

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

Dynamithix 08-01-2011 06:27 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.

Because Papa said so.

Dynamithix 08-02-2011 06:28 AM

And your point is?

JennyGenesis 08-02-2011 06:31 AM

Backing up your point.

Dynamithix 08-02-2011 07:02 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 09:41 AM

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

JennyGenesis 08-02-2011 09:52 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 10:16 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 12:15 PM

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 01:22 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 03:54 PM

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

JennyGenesis 08-02-2011 05:31 PM

I know your pain, I relied on a friend to help me get past some parts.

I don't think I would have patience to beat the game without runner vision but I am working on the achievement for beating the game without firing a bullet.

That is AMAZING. Kudos.

Back to Silver at the moment. I definitely owe you and DI some XBL time, though. Should snag another gold card within the month.

Crashpunk 08-03-2011 07:41 AM

Mirrors Edge is a fun game. Its also a very hard game that makes me cry with rage,
A bit like what Super Meat Boy, BIT.TRIP Runner and VVVVVV does to me.

Jordan 08-03-2011 08:29 AM

I finished Alice. That's one of the trippiest games I've ever played. But bloody wonderful.

On Steam, there's usually a discount.

But not this time.

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.

Deus Ex:

Deus Ex represents a worrying trend of preorder bonuses that ought to be in the game anyway.

After I played don't take it personally, babe and read Neuromancer, the next logical step was to play Digital: A Love Story.

The plot was nice, the soundtrack was good, and it did interesting things with the format. Plus the character of a guy sitting at his computer getting bored was automatically the most immersive player role I'd ever experienced.

So yeah. Near-classic, I guess. WoF might like it, I dunno. Pilot wouldn't. Its representation of the '80s isn't pedantic enough.

Dynamithix 08-03-2011 06:48 PM

So, I tried out VVVVVV. Time played: 10min, Deaths: 67.

Yeah.

jumper 08-04-2011 12:46 AM

Does that imply you're giving up? Also, prepare to die a lot more, but it never gets frustrating.

MeechCrunchies 08-04-2011 12:46 AM

i finished the two level demo of it.

i believe I had a total of about 100 deaths O_O

Phylum 08-04-2011 01:06 AM

I just beat the Veni Vidi Vici run in VVVVVV. I feel awesome.

Dynamithix 08-04-2011 03:34 AM

Definitely not going to give up on VVVVVV. It's a really good game in my opinion, just kind of hard.
