I liked GTA IV as well, it hasnt aged all that well but it was a blast to play when it first came out, I liked Niko's character a lot (heck, even Roman wasnt terrible at first)

 
It just dawned on me that the same guy voices Sully in Uncharted and Tom Sheldon in Just Cause.

Finished Binary Domain. It reminds me a lot of games like Vanquish, Metal gear rising revengeance, maybe even Anarchy Reigns, but it isn't as fun as the ones previously named. Not a horrible game, but nothing too special.

 
And in that Fibbage game, who was Betachris? Dude was looking up every answer. There's no way you know the answer to every single question like 10 games in a row.
Seriously. I don't recall who it was, but someone was getting way too many obscure questions right.

We're definitely rocking that game when it comes to PS4. But I will fucking shame the shit out of anyone suspected of cheating. Don't do that shit you ruin it for fucking everyone!

Thanks for posting that Cleaner. I saw a video that made the game look fun, but I still didn't even expect it to be that cool. Awesome way for 8 people to play with only one person owning that game. Eventually the questions will start repeating but hopefully we can get a lot of games out of that.

 
Ibb and obb.

It's ok.  Some of the platforming puzzles are fun and some are a pain.  Bums and I are through 9 levels, so we have 6 to go.  It's definitely not easy.  Those who haven't played it yet, I'm not really sure I'd recommend it.

 
You probably have several digital games which are pretty short. Unfinished Swan? (that was my quickest 100% at under 5 hours) Doki Doki Universe? Proteus? Spec Ops The Line? Puppeteer? Thomas was Alone? If you can't decide can just go with my method, list all the (short) games in sequence, assign each of them numbers and then ask someone to pick a number at random from 1 to X.
I have all of those games and ended up starting Velocity 2X and then streaming Fibbage for nearly 6 hours since we had a good group of people playing.

Pretty sure it's a friend of Cleaner's, so he's probably played a lot of the game with her already.
It is. I know he played the game once without me so I'm not sure how many questions he saw before but we only played for maybe 2 hours previously since I haven't been on XB1 much. To be honest he's really good at trivia games. He usually kicks my ass when we play YDKJ on 360 so I usually try to have more players to compete with so I have a chance. :) I usually kick his ass at everything else so trivia is kind of his thing.

Out of the 2 hours I played previously and the nearly 6 tonight I didn't notice repeat questions until the last game of the night. I know there are hundreds of questions in the game. There's an achievement for experiencing them all and I haven't gotten it yet. I did get my Master Baiter achievement haha.

I probably won't play the game again until Extra Life so that way the questions should still be new. We're going to stream it then and giveaway some codes for the game too but I think they'll be for XB1.

At first I thought it was lame that you had to use a tablet/smartphone but streaming made it pretty cool. Only one person needs to own the game and obviously it's easy to type with a keyboard.

Cool. Sly is supposed to be a really good port. I kind of regret getting the PS3 version instead.

BTW: Thank fucking god that's over. Finally got the Ghosts plat--my 5th and by far the rarest. What a pain in the ass the last trophy is. If Velo hadn't picked me up at the last second I'd have had to spend at least another hour trying again. Playing through the same damn scenario ~20 times with each attempt being an hour or so long is not a good time when you have to play with other people who are invariably complete morons.

This sucker is going to Target TODAY for $20 TIV. And good riddance. Great game except for that last part, but still.

 
Ive never tossed a bottle or brick at an enemy. Does that make me weird? Im on my 5th playthrough on TLOU right now.
I never did it until my Survivor+ run through. When I did and saw its usefulness, I kicked myself for not having tried it before. I remember the exact spot too in Pittsburgh, hotel kitchen.

You beat it with one relic, imagine beating it with more. I beat it with all 5 top row relics before they came out with even more. Hardcore just to get the patches/backgrounds for mp.

and yeah that was insane, all of us went down at like the same time. I started running away thinking fuck those guys but noticed you were down too so I ran back and saved ya. That would have sucked to make it to the end only to go down running to the Heli. Good job on the plat man!

The relic really adds a ton of difficulty. I was using the low ammo one. I figured using turrets would offset that, but it really didn't. My turrets kept dying for no reason I could see--I wasn't sure what was going on there, they'd just disappear for no apparent reason even from the beginning of the game. Those morons screwing up the challenges over and over so we didn't get skill points made it harder than it should have been to compensate for the relic. As a result I was constantly out of money and scrounging for bullets. Near the end I got pistols leveled up to carry 2 main weapons and that helped, but one of them was the Saw and the reload times were horrendous since I couldn't get my reload speed upgraded and nobody had equipped the hand speed booster.

I was absolutely sure we were all going to die there. I initially got picked up and was going to take off, then the roadblock showed back up even though it had disappeared earlier. At that point my guns were empty and that rhino was all over me, so I just went down again in no time. Not fun. I'm glad you stuck around and picked me up. :)

BTW...anybody have any idea what the image in my psnprofile is? I didn't set it to that and it's not a game I've played AFAIK.

i believe that is for under defeat HD

 
That is silly that your psn profile pic is a random game, idk. Yeah I thought I was just tripping out when that crystal roadblock appeared again! I was ready to run off and then I was like, well scratch that and turned around and saved ya. Thanks for saving me also when we kept going down after the first roadblock. and LOL I went with the slow movement and no reload while sprinting relic our first game, which was great until the very end when your main goal is to sprint as fast as possible. That was lots of fun but yeah idiots that don't know what prone means infuriate me. That lobby where he just got hit at the first hive I was like fuck this and backed us out. Good times man.

also I totally forgot that you can customize your extinction character different then your mp character so I decked my dude out in gold and black now with a big rhino helmet :) I never got to unlock the class upgrades but playing with you these last few days earned me like 30 teeth. You notice my IMS was shooting alot quicker and leaving pools of fire behind?  Too cool. peace man

I bought Fibbage last week and it is hilarious. My main problem is I like to make the funniest answer rather than a believable one. But I always win the like trophy st the end!

Example question: Kevin Spacey's brother works as a _______ impersonator. I couldn't help but put "Kevin Spacey's brother" as the answer.

Damn. Hella regretting the ending I got to in TWD season 2.
Eh. Decisions don't matter in Telltale games anyway. If you decide who lives and who dies then they both end up dead no matter what just a bit further down the line. Sooo...no worries; the apparent differences in how S2 ended will all be wiped out shortly into S3.

 
More TLOU tips for Pete:

1. If you hold down the throw/aim button when crouched (L2 on PS4, I think L1 on PS3), you automatically move the absolute slowest you can.  Makes it so you'll never get discovered sneaking up on an infected or sneaking around clickers/bloaters/etc.  Extremely useful on higher difficulties.

2. Shiv glitch is great if you're OK with that.  Personally I think any in-game glitch is fair game, especially ones that Naughty Dog didn't bother to fix in a remastered rerelease.

3. Hardest part of the game on higher difficulty (don't read if you haven't played yet):

is when you play as Ellie.  Especially the parts where you're in the cabin with David then a bit later in the bigger room and having to fend off multiple infected with limited ammo.  One trick is to stay behind/close to David, then stab anything that grabs him or was just pushed off him.  Makes it way easier.  I was able to get out of there with 4 rifle ammo and 8 arrows doing that on Grounded.

4. Don't be afraid to use a molotov.  They can make encounters trivial, especially in Bill's Town, the Sewers, and the Dam.

5. Play Deus Ex, dumbass.  That game is great.

 
Looks like Under Defeat to me which would make sense since it is the most recent game on your profile.
Hm. I thought it went off what your last trophy was from. Guess not.

I did start Under Defeat a bit ago. There must be some natural selection process for people who are good at shmups; I'd be bred out in a heartbeat. I can't even beat it on easy. I've been playing a couple hours and almost got to the boss of 1-4. Not my kind of game at all. I hate starting over from the beginning every time I die.

Oh well. Started a game and left it paused. I'm okay with being a cheaty little bitch.

 
Started ZE: VLR. I see they upped the weird/Japanese shit with the narrating bunny rabbit. I'm sure you were delighted, @cap. Also, after playing P4G I believe I'm hearing a lot of the same voice actors. Story forks in different directions but hopefully it doesn't require a bunch of replays to get the "real" ending. I just went with the cyan door since its path is the longest.

Have to say, while I appreciate the upgraded a/v presentation on Vita, I sorta miss the 3DS' stylus controls. I cringe anytime I have to touch the Vita's screen.

I will if I could just get musicians and sign guys to fuck ing spawn! Last two trophies for plat and it takes forever to get these guys to appear. fuck.
I used this:

An easy way I found to get this acheivement is to head to the Queen Anne billboard, assuming it has a 0% DUP presence (not sure if this is necessary), save the game and load your save. Off to the left a police icon can be seen, go and kill the two policemen and a street musician icon should then spawn south of the Queen Anne billboard, kill him then zoom off to the North and a sign spinner icon should spawn just across the street from where you killed the musician (sometimes the sign spinner and the street musician will spawn together), kill him then save your game and load it again Rinse and repeat until you have the acheivement.

 
Fibbage is on Fire TV, so that's awesome. We have about 6-7 devices we could use for it too...might be able to scrounge up a full 8 if we dug some old computer out of the closet. Then we can have a full game at home!

Hahahaha yeah right I don't know 8 people in real life that I'd want to play a game with.

thanks. After I bitched about it I went and read the guide. I found a spot where both were killed them saved and reloaded. Basically what you have there. Thanks. Plat done. Now I will probably wait to buy first light. Hope its discounted at some point but if not I'll buy it later when I am ready anyway.
