Wait, when your characters lose shit it just stays on the ground rather than disappearing? That's actually kinda cool.

If it was an intended feature to be realistic (I lose shit all the time, so I can empathize), then that could be cool.

When it is not an explained feature of the game, then it is a costly bug and one shouldn't have to constantly monitor their companions items to make sure the game didn't glitch and force them to drop it.

Awesome Mordor is already sold out online at BB can't do in store pickup and it screws with the free shipping I'd get for getting it along with Infamous Second Son. Guess I'll be waiting on the flash sale. So much for GCU. I see amazon has both for the same prices or $21 and $25 but I'd save another $10 on BB. Maybe they'll re-stock? Annoyed.

Early bird gets the worm I guess.

I think this is one of the reasons these games have such an issue on PS3. The stuff doesn't disappear from the game world, and it's constantly existing. This results in your save file getting huge and eventually causes issues with rendering and loading things, which in turn makes the game run super slow and choppy.

Yeah, it's pretty cool that my follower randomly drops a rare weapon on the ground and makes me go on a fucking scavenger hunt to find it.

We'll call it an unlisted side-quest.

(but yeah, at least it didn't disappear or fall through the ground like items are known to do in this game)

Is it bad that I think parades are on of the most boring waste of times? I want to slit my throat watching them. Even worse when the family wants to sit and wait for one to start at Disney world. Only to have hundreds of people crowd around you and try to stand right in front of your kid who has been waiting for an hour.

I fucking hate parades as well. Waste of time. But the wife and kid love them. At least my son is the new designated parade watching partner now. Yay kids!

Yeah, your save file grows pretty fast. It's why a lot of people end up doing the dlc on a new game, because their end game file is so huge it causes problems.

I am glad Wal-Mart had the 3DS sale on the website this morning so my friend doesn't have to deal with trying to snag one for me. I was pretty surprised they had it since it was listed as in store only and Sam's had them listed as only 4-12 per store.

Now if my wife can get the one at Kohl's for the other kid tonight before the hockey game we will be all set.

Ok, cowboy.
 
Parades are rucking stupid, especially around this time of year. If you live somewhere that it's cold and you go outside to stand in a crowd with hundreds of people just to look at balloons rolling by, you're a retard.
 
fucking plow guy didn't come. Luckily I put the studded snow tires on last weekend, so we were able to get up my murderous driveway with no issues. Almost got snowed in on thanksgiving, that would have sucked.
 
If there was a 3DS for like $100, I'd consider it just for pokemon. But even then, that'd be a hard price to swallow for just one game. And I wouldn't use the 3D since it gives me a headache. Too bad that 2DS is so stupid looking.
 
Glad I am not the only asshole who hates parades. Some of the family give me grief that I dont like the holidays just because I despise parades.

I am defiantly thankful for football and alcohol on this day.

Did I mention the high is 65 today? And sunny? Beautiful.

Our youngest wanted a 2DS so he got one for his birthday. It actually looks a lot better in person than you'd think and it is definitely more comfortable to hold for adult hands. Kind of like having a built-in grip. I wouldn't drop the idea.

I'm thinking of picking up those 2DS deals just for pokemon. I only use my vita when I take a poop so not being able to fit in my pocket wouldn't matter.

 
I think GCU has spoiled me on Black Friday game deals. Infamous, Wolfenstein, and Mordor are all great prices but thanks to GCU I played them all at release for a profit. Only bought Diablo III PS4 and a couple 3DS games so far.

seems a bunch of places are running rivals complete on xbone for 25, but it's 35 on ps4. 10/10 therms

amazon seems to have lower prices on a lot of xb games compared to ps4. fuck ms

 
Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Be safe out there.

I have a 2 hour drive ahead of me after breakfast. I'm thinking that's a perfect time for some Vita. Got it all charged up. Not sure if I'll just play Spelunky or try something new. I watched a guy's 45 minute run on YouTube yesterday and had no idea about the Worm or Mothership levels. Pretty cool. I didn't know you could double jetpack either lol. And I unlocked a new female character the other day. It's been too long since I've gotten anything new. Spelunky it is!
 
I'm trying to get Borderlands Presequel and AC Rogue for $25 a piece, but it doesn't look like anybody besides Walmart is going that low. They're sold out online and no way I'm going to one of their stores to fight the crowds.

People are saying the prices are already live in store, so you wouldn't have to fight the 6pm masses.

 
I think the thing I hate the most about these televised parades this time of year are the shitty obvious lip syncing jobs. Like they really expect us to believe that one pop singer alone on a float is providing a full band sound and perfect vocals in the cold.

Though it was fun (in a "how the fuck did I come out of this family" sort of way) to see my mother react when the cast of Kinky Boots performed last year.

I knew someone was gonna say that. I'm carpooling. About to pull out the Vita in the backseat.

He had one strapped to his back and just carried the other. It looked funny. He really just threw it at enemies.

I played some more Geometry Wars 3 last night and it definitely starts getting pretty hard after the 2nd boss. I haven't finished the first level in the following set of levels yet. But the game is great. I also played some of the classic levels. I'm kicking PSNOT ass so far.

Just asked my husband why we don't have a trash can in the bathroom, that people want to know and he says when people come over that they're going to throw their dirty ass toilet paper in the trash can. I asked him if he thought we lived in Mexico and yeah......

Do you not have a toilet in your bathroom either?

You shouldn't play video games and drive. Hope you rethink your decision before you hurt yourself or someone else. We don't want to lose the only chick in our thread.

I'm a super multitasker. Plus the car drives itself. That's what cruise control means, right?

Look again old man.
 
Any deals on the Elgato Game Capture HD out there? Supposedly Newegg has $10 off $100 with Visa Checkout, but even though it shows that for the HD60 (and HD) when you try to use it it says it can't be combined with a combo deal - it keeps putting digital downloads of Batmang games in the cart and there's no way to remove them. :(

I'll have you assholes know that inhale a dream last night where I was sorting through an old accessories bin at a used game store and was super fired up to find a PS2 USB camera for $.33 and help.
