I have yet to buy a skin pack either but the Animated Series Batman suit calls to me.

Batman dlc on sale for next week as DoTW? Holy craptastic! Whoever is doing the weekly deals for M$ has surely fallen off and into the crazy train. Fire that person, for majority of cagers are in disappointment!

Yeah the more I think about the Batman DLC I think I am going to pass. All the achievements require you to get all the medals on challenges and campaigns and they are only worth 100 total. I have not even touched Catwoman on the challenge maps and gotten past about half of the Batman ones. There is more than enough there to keep me satisfied. On a side note I went back to AA to try and finish those challenge maps and was stunned by how much more frustrating the combat was compared to AC. I had forgotten how the knife guys would automatically break your combo if you did not cape stun them. Combat in AC is much tighter but I did not like managing so many gadgets.

I finished Deus Ex and I was stunned to see I put 41 hours in this week on it. I am a bit burned out on it so I am not sure if I am going to tackle The Missing Link right now or wait until I feel like it will be fresh again.

Can't tell if this was mentioned previously since the thread got so off topic, but xbldb is showing Wheelman Premium Street Showdown pack as free. It used to be 400 msp. Just downloaded it from my 360 and the description states it "features 5 unique races that put you head to head against 5 other opponents." Has no achievements, but it's free and is only 15MB so why not?

Thanks! Any Idea what the difference is between this one and the previously considered free version? The descriptions are the same. Is is a total of 10 races then? I really wish more older games would do this. I guess it is still a possible revenue stream.

Edit: Ok the free version is just one race as opposed to 5.

Great find, adding to download history in case I ever do get the game. Thanks!

You may be on the money with the Crimson Alliance sale, I too have not decided yet. The DLC from Square-Enix I accepted as good a deal I can get at this time. Agreed, I wish more of their content was up for sale mainly because they tend to ask for so much in base pricing.

Add Trials HD to that list and you have the Mount Rushmore of overratedness.

So I haven't touched Deus Ex really since I bought it after Christmas, but should I buy the DLC? I hardly sit down to game anymore (I mean I have the time, I just always find myself going out in my off time), but I'm going through Dark Souls at the moment. Just want some inputs

you're asking us if you should buy DLC to a game you haven't played since Christmas, on top of the fact that you don't game anymore.

my answer is yes.

also, no.

I have no words.

I'm one of the few people who wholeheartedly agree with this statement.

No, it had lots of defenders a few pages back.

After the update from Rocksteady, I played through the whole game as the Animated Series Batman. I just wish they would release animated skins for all the villians. I would easily pay for that DLC.

I thought you could do that anyway after the first playthrough? Or did they change it so you could use the alternate suits from the beginning? That would be awesome.

I'm pretty sure I remember hearing that they issued an update where u can use an alt skin right from the beginning.

Here's a great quote from Film Crit Hulk on the subject:

THERE'S AN ANECDOTE FROM CHUCK KLOSTERMAN ABOUT HOW HE ONLY LIKES TALKING ABOUT MUSIC WHEN IT'S SOMETHING THE OTHER PERSON LIKES TOO. WHAT MAY SEEM TO SOME AS A MATTER OF STRIVING TOWARD HIVE-MINDED AGREE-ABILITY, COULD NOT BE FURTHER FROM THAT GOAL. IT IS MERELY REFLECTING THE GOAL OF MUSIC ITSELF. BECAUSE WHEN IT COMES TO MUSIC, WITH ITS BROAD INFINITE SPECTRUM OF TASTE AND STYLE, IT CAN REALLY ONLY OPERATE AS SOMETHING THAT BINDS PEOPLE TOGETHER. AND THUS, DISCUSSIONS OVER HATING BANDS ONLY REVEALS SOMETHING THAT IS DIVISIVE. IT BUILDS A "YOUR FAVORITE BAND SUCKS" CULTURE INDEED.

That really sums up how I feel about discussing games with others as well...

That was honestly one of the most enlightening and profound things I've read in a while.


And I'm someone who loves to argue.

Good article and quote. My favorite part was what he had #1 on his list of WHY YOU LOVE MOVIES:

BECAUSE OF STANLEY KUBRICK.

Also pretty fun that you actually insult a game within your signature.
