I got the metal super rare in the bottom right, canobonga or something. and then the top left wood patapons.

I really liked TLOU. im glad i played it, ill play it again on ps4. 2 trophy lists i presume?

im considering the season pass, but keep thinking goty edition or free ps+ or sale, something...

I heard left behind dlc was awesome also.

I thought mp would suck, but it's pretty awesome too once you understand what's going on.

? i know nothing of this game. I'm glad I didn't delete it or merge it. If I trade, I presume I lose it?

I knew 4 star sr was probly a good thing, but im pretty slow and it was right after I finished tutorial ;)

Should I put it front of my list so people summon it or? I have another rare metal white touch or something dude and iv been using him more just cuz that canobonga cost 5 points and that's all i had to start with. now im at 6 cuz beating areas, but still...

yeah, you lose it if you trade it. i wouldn't worry about it unless you're gonna get hardcore into the game again. not sure how much people will bother summoning a low level spirit. so i'd just use whatever you have until you get beefed up a bit. rentals usually revolve around the raid bosses.

Crunchewy is streaming Pinball but no commentary. Start calling him snakey.

I guess there's a ton of terribly annoying sound effects though, so that helps a bit.

I turned off the comment sidebar and I think I saw you pop up and maybe post a comment? But of course I can't see them. Then when I go on the web page to the channel there are no comments. ??? Or did you not post a comment?

Sorry about the lack of voice. I will address that next time. This was just an experiment.

Yeah, you have to be on the webpage when the comment is posted to see it. You can't just go there whenever and see the whole chat log. I posted 4 times.

I stream full-screen like you did, then have my laptop set up right next to me to read comments. Has been working well for me so far.

 
hopefully my cable comes in tomorrow before i go to work. otherwise i'll probably miss the delivery, and have to pick it up on friday. don't want to download the 12gb+ beta on the current connection. i really want to stream like all the cool kids too, and i have some shiny new things to play.

Next time I'll leave the iPhone app up on just chat. And use a mic. But I need followers so I don't have to beg for viewers here. Just beg for followers here....

I just post my stream in the thread, I don't think there's anything wrong with that. If people are bugged by it I hope they post. None of us are making any money off of Twitch so I hope it doesn't bug people here too much.

 
it appears my vita is back to form now. was a pita, but very happy i got my baby back. was kind of stressing me out a little bit. especially since i really enjoyed playing on the sentry last night, and i would have had to give that up to replace the vita.

 
tylerh1701 said:
Not addressing you directly cuz I don't think you make this joke all that often, but the "Can't play Vita, has no games" joke has run it's course in this thread even more so than the Wrencrest pillpopping thing.

He's the only one making that joke so you were right in directing it towards him.

Yes. Play it twice. But you probably won't think it's great until after the mid-point of the game.

So you have to get halfway through a game before it starts getting good? That means it's not that good of a game if half it is subpar. I will never understand why people think TLoU is the greatest thing to happen to gaming. I prefer Playstation, I love Naughty Dog and all the stars should have aligned with my preferences and TLoU, but it didn't do it for me.

Two things about that. 1. Really because we disagree on one game? 2. I guess I should disregard your opinions as well.

Yup, Last of Us is a litmus test. And "nothing special"? Seriously? I'd love to see your list of special games from this gen.

I'm riled up.

I said "great." It's good from the beginning, but pete will probably wonder what all the hype's about. He'll find out after the midway point.

Uncharted series
Bioshock 1
Heavy Rain

I am not really in the mood to defend myself or argue about the last of us. You like it, that's great. I wish I liked it, because then I wouldn't feel like I wasted that time playing it. I would have loved to have the same experience that most other people had, but I didn't. It is incredibly boring. I think it is easily one of the most overrated games of last gen. TloU, RDR and Journey are three games I will never understand what is so special about them.

Playthrough 2 on NIER is really making me feel like a d-bag. Good story though, I'm glad Vigilante refused to let be do just the one playthrough.

Capping off my night with some Doctor Who.

Dear Mr. Pete,

I'm posting replies in letter form as '@' is no longer acceptable. As one of the few who does not think TLoU is god's gift to gaming, I still say play it. I'm just over the zombie/post-apocalyptic trend so it was never going to impress me the way it has others. I watched World War ZzzzZz last weekend and thought the same.

I obviously can't say if it's worth waiting for the PS4 remaster, but all indicators point to yes. Here's an excerpt from a gamespot article where the devs talk about the improved framerate:

"It was a toss-up before; people were saying that you lose quality and graphics and what not," Gregory said when asked why Naughty Dog feels that it's such an important component for the game. "But being able to compare apples to apples like we have now with The Last of Us, going back and playing the 30 Hz version feels, to quote some people in the office, 'broken.' There's something that can't be captured in screenshots and playing an adventure game where you just walk around and experience the world at the smooth 60 Hz.

I have newfound respect for ND. It's time more prominent devs prioritized performance. And since one of the minor complaints about TLoU is its controls, it'll be interesting to see any improvement with responsiveness. Uncharted 4 will apparently run at 60 too, though I can't find confirmation. Trailer looks awesome.

I actually thought the intro was incredible as far as set pieces go. it was the two hours after that that made me put it down. I will play it, it's just a matter of priority I guess.

oh good, I liked rdr so that's promising.
 
fuck, I missed the boat on this. Earlier in ere spouse to Pete I was going to say:

Just about everyone: Yes, TLoU is an awesome game! Great story, great atmosphere!
@Breakfuss: I guess I'll be that guy who says it's not that great.

But I didn't want to get @Breakfuss riled up again. Damn it!

I honestly feel like I wasted the time I spent on Heavy Rain. Didnt like it at first, kinda began enjoying it at least for the story about mid way, and was ready to shoot myself before it ended.

I never finished Bio 1.

didn't you hear? The @breakfuss shit is played out.

Yeah but the difference between the @Breakfuss thing and the "Who's wrencrest?" thing, is that the first one was actually funny. The other thing could have been funny, but you overused it way too much too early and because of that it died quickly.
 
The @ thing isn't played out yet.

And it actually doesn't bother me at all when breakfuss or anyone else uses it.  It has become part of the social media spectrum.  Only people who would be bothered by it are those "ew Facebook, ew Twitter...back in my day we actually TALKED with one another....change is bad.....blah blah blah.....OBAMA STOP SPYING ON ME!"

He'd disagree at first, then give in because he just can't stay mad at her.

I'm super annoyed that I started playing last of us on ps3 now. I'd like to play the shiny ps4 version, but I'll be forever irked by the 0% on the ps3 version.

You know you can just hide it if it is a 0% and it won't make a difference on any of the trophy sites. Of course, you will still know it is there.
