So is Type-0 going to have a retail release then?

It looks cooler than any other FF game I've ever seen except for the trailer for XV.

Type-0 HD is being used to bring the FF fans to current-gen before FF XV's release, so Squeenix would be incredibly dumb to not release it in retail format.

Were you doing a farming run, crucible, what? I tried the glimmer farming run on the moon and it works very well, and it's good for leveling up your cryptarch. People say he has to be a higher level to get better results from the engrams. People may just be talking BS though because I don't think anyone has everything figured out about this game yet.

But I also tried that engram/drop farming run where you kill the dudes coming through the door and I got maybe one drop in 30 minutes. Meanwhile the dude in the video is getting 10 drops a minute.

I don't know exactly when I got it but in that little gaming spurt, I did the daily story, the weekly strike, and a Level 24 strike.

I read that raising your engram level means you get better results but then I've also read that it's bullshit so it's probably random the entire time and it just seems like it's getting better for those people. The good thing is you get those legendary packages every time you level him up.

However, after reading this: http://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/2gmi8z/100_guaranteed_full_legendary_exotic_armor_no_rng/, I'm not going to bother with farming anymore. I'll just go for marks and hopefully get an occasional legendary engram. I'm gonna focus on daily events today.

This is tempting as I could use a 4th for local mayhem, but I really want one of the new ones, which I guess you can only be sure of by buying a different color. The damn bumpers are awful on the 1st gen DS4s.
Click to expand...
If by bumpers you mean triggers, yes, they are. Sounds like an old motel mattress that's seen a lot of Velo action. I've contemplated saying something to Amazon or Sony but not sure if it's worth the trouble. Seems like something I could fix myself but don't know how.
 
The more I see you guys post about Destiny the more I am glad I didnt get roped into the game.  Seems like a lot of research and work to play it.

Lame. Amazon's sold out of the AC Unity CE now that I finally go to order it. I can still get it from Walmart, but I can trust Amazon to get it to me in good shape and on release day.

Another thing: what's the deal with the Black Flag CE for PS4? Amazon has the Xbone version for like half off MSRP, but no new ones listed for PS4. 10/10 Therms.

So if somebody is streaming Fibbage, don't they have a 30 second advantage over everyone else? Or how does this work exactly?

No, because you're playing it through fibbage.com, not Twitch.

edit - I mean you're putting in your answers via the browser. You see the results on Twitch.

One thing I do to check if my post went through when it doesn't automatically appear is open up the previous page in a new tab then navigate to the current page and scroll down to see if my post is there.
Click to expand...
Sometimes I do this. Usually when I want to make a post I just right-click "Quote" and type the post in a new tab. If I'm caught up in the original tab I just refresh. This lets me open quote posts as I get caught up without having to use multiquote or have the quote button jump me to the bottom of the current page.

The only annoying thing about it is that CAG won't let you open a quote in a new tab if you've posted too recently. You get the message about having just posted. It's weird and stupid because it should only do that if you open the quote in a new tab and then try to hit "Add Reply" before the appropriate amount of time has passed. Just opening the quote tab shouldn't trigger this.

The bumpers are the horizontal ones above the triggers. But, yeah, and they stick too. All 3 of mine have this issue. I think it may be because I play pinball arcade and there you are using them a lot (at least if you use the bumpers to control the flippers, which I do).

That makes me wonder why this is a console game at all. Why not just do the whole thing via a website? ??? Probably I need to see this game in action to understand….

A place called Brandsmart is selling Destiny for $30. I've never heard of it and it's only in south Florida and parts of Georgia. People are successfully price matching at other stores, though. Might be easier if you live in-state. GOTY for half off is one heck of a deal!

I think I missed something. You were talking about Destiny, then you switched to some GOTY. Which game are you saying is GOTY?

Did anyone here see Snowpiercer? I've heard a lot of positive buzz for it, and the Blu-ray release is at a tempting $14.96 preorder price at Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/Snowpiercer-Blu-ray/ref=%26%2574%2561g%3d%2562l%2575r%2561y%252d031%252d20?SubscriptionId=AKIAIY4YSQJMFDJATNBA&tag=bluray-031-20&linkCode=xm2&camp=2025&creative=165953&creativeASIN=B00M7D824O&ASIN=B00M7D824O&m=ATVPDKIKX0DER

Snowpiercer is fantastic! But I don't buy movies. I'll rent it and watch it again, though.

Just buy the Xbox One version and sell the game. The game is going to be the only thing that is Xbox-related, no? Everything else will be the same regardless of which version of the game you buy.

There is some for sure. A coworker explained a bunch of things to me some of it stuck some of it didn't. Still having fun playing the campaign and random events that pop up. I am on the last planet with 3 or 4 missions left. Only level 15. I played a bit last night and the night before with a friend who was a lower level helping him progress his story.

It if fun but yeah to be great at it I think you really have to figure things out. I am never going to be a top 1000 player or anything like that so I just muck around and figure things out as I go along mostly. I am sure I will be googling stuff soon enough too.

 
*sigh* Alien: Isolation DLC will be released over the course of 6 months. Seriously?

http://www.ign.com/articles/2014/09/17/6-months-of-dlc-support-for-alien-isolations-survivor-mode

When Alien: Isolation is released next month will come with one playable map (Basement), but from October 28th the first of five expansion packs will roll out for purchase. The first drop will contain three additional maps, each with specific objects and challenges, a new playable character and will vary the enemy types (on top of the alien itself, of course). In the coming months, four more expansions will be released, each containing a new character, new maps, and a variety of challenges.
Players will be able to pick up an Alien: Isolation Season Pass, which will grant access to all five Survivor Mode expansions and offer a 25% discount. And SEGA has said all of this DLC will be released by March 2015.

You don't have to do any research/work to play and enjoy it. I'm perfectly happy doing the story missions and competitive multiplayer at the moment. I actually have no idea what the fuck these people are talking about with marks and whatnot. Once I reach the level cap I might start to look into it, but it's hardly necessary. You can enjoy it as a straightforward FPS if you'd like.

Yeah I'm doing marks today too. Mostly doing the public event in The Divide and running over to The Mothyards every now and then. The Divide comes at ##:15 and ##:45 on the dot.

I guess I didn't really think of that. I'm gonna watch some unboxings on Youtube and see if anything else is different.
