I thought about Magrunner but I really really really need to stop buying PS3 games (which I keep saying but haven't done). I'm also figuring since I haven't played Portal 2 yet it would be silly to buy a cheap Portal clone.

Vig - You think Toon Link is rare or going to be rare (sold out online)? I've seen some popping up in stores lately. Wondering if I should hold a few.

Doubt it, he's been pretty common since he released. Steady stock to most stores.

I now intend to do the same, got 2 Lucario's at TRU yesterday. Muhahahaha.

I don't know you you can start so many games and not finish them. I stopped doing it awhile back as I feel like I would never really finish anything. My finish doesn't mean platinum it just means finish the story though. I haven't even dropped a game in a long time after starting although Freedom Wars might be the one that breaks that streak for me. Not enjoying it yet...too talky for no reason.

In my lame defense like half or more of those are fighting games / sports games that I'll probably never be done with in any meaningful way.

Watching bluemaxima's qbert rebooted gameplay review. Funny. It looks a special kind of awful and apparently the controls are brutal.
 
I am trying to buy that $50 card but it keeps failing and says the seller (PayPal digital gifts) doesn't accept PayPal. Uhhhhh.... Might be an issue only on mobile. Oh well, not like I should be spending $40 anyway.
 
If anyone cares, Square Enix is re-implementing a rewards program.  You'll have to make a new account as any old ones that they fucked up during their European migration are not valid.  It looks like you only get them if you buy directly from their store or do some other stuff through their website.

I blocked the cartwheel update on my phone this morning because screw you zimm
 
So turns out I was pretty close to the end of the good playthrough in inFamous 2 when I started it up last night.  After doing I think 3 main missions, the beast is only 113 miles or so from New Marais.  Third island isn't unlocked yet, but that should happen after the next couple of main missions.  Trying to sprinkle in a few side missions, but I might just barrel through to the end tonight & tomorrow so I can have more time with my bonus game Far Cry 3, since that one seems a bit longer.

So has anyone here actually played Magrunner? I had never even heard of the game before you guys talked about it yesterday. Looking at the videos for it, it looks to be slightly similar to Portal 2 which I loved. I am sure it is not anywhere near that in terms of quality, but for $1.49 it looks like a no brainer.

My only hesitation is that I have had an issue with motion sickness in first person games at times. I doubt enough people have played it to have any info on that one way or another.

Looks like Yanks has played it. He's the only one on my TT friends list with any trophies, but he's only got 2.

But cool new features! improved bar code scan! A widget! Passbook on your lock screen for the last 5 stores you redeemed at! Push notifications for new & expiring offers! My damn screenshot!

Just make the offers load to my red card or otherwise I'm not going to use it. I'm not going to be fumbling through my pockets to find my phone, find my app, and bring up the coupons while I'm trying to checkout and keep a kid from running over to the pizza hut.

You can print out the barcode before going and have them scan it instead.

 
I still dont know how you all find the time to play games on other systems.

Oh thats right, you dont, you just add to the backlog!  See Mild/Jeff/NotPete's earlier post.

Go home, Nintendo. You're drunk:

At Indiecade East, [Nintendo of America senior manager Damon] Baker told Nintendo Life that Nintendo of America wanted to make the distinction between the existing Nintendo 3DS models absolutely clear. If Nintendo were to have released the smaller New Nintendo 3DS in the US, it might have caused confusion, he said.
"We're a different market," Baker said. "And now we have clear differentiation between those three systems. Before, there was a very limited difference between the 3DS and 3DS XL: other than size. It was the same resolution, same functionality... now, there's the 2DS, 3DS, and New 3DS XL, all of which have their own functionality and features."

"The different price points give it a clear message for consumers," he added. "The core audience... we weren't going to win with them on that decision. But we had to think about expanding the user base, we had to be able to market it and make it easy to pick up for consumers."

While the New Nintendo 3DS and New Nintendo 3DS XL feature the same technical specifications, the regular-sized model supports custom faceplates, meaning gamers in the US will miss out on that feature. Baker admitted that the faceplates are "super cool," but not enough of a reason to bring the model to the US.

Such stupid reasoning. Here's how they could fix things:

1. Cease production of the 3DS.

2. Bring over the New 3DS to replace it.

3. Release the custom faceplates, making lots and lots of money in the process.

4. Fire whoever names things at Nintendo now because "New 3DS" and "Wii U" are so terrible.

The $50 for $40 PSN money purchase issue appears to be that I had to accept a new terms of service. Stupid that it didn't say this on mobile, instead just giving an error. In the end decided not to bite, though. For now. We'll see.

 
So, opinions on the the games in the Focus and Aksys Sale?

The Focus ones are all super cheap, but are they all super crap? Thought about getting Mars War Logs, and Magrunner. Maybe Faery?

And then from Aksys:

Blazing Souls (?)

Mimana Iyar

Ragnarok tactics 

Record of Lodoss War (nah. only if they were on the Vita)

Kirby and the Rainbow Curse review from Destructoid: http://www.destructoid.com/review-kirby-and-the-rainbow-curse-287744.phtml

Meanwhile, at gamespot: http://www.gamespot.com/reviews/kirby-and-the-rainbow-curse-review/1900-6416031/

I think they sometimes rate things much lower for clicks. I use to follow the site a lot but not for awhile now.

Regarding Kirby, I've got it preordered and expect it to be great fun. I enjoyed the DS version that looked just like it. I also like supporting this $39.99 price point that they are electing to have for some games.

 
Nintendo has a bag of dicks running the company. Get rid of the 2DS, 3DS, bring over new 3ds and don't name your new console "new" asshats. 

Microsoft must be worrying...I got an e-mail for $50 off an X1 and a free game of my choosing...lol...Microsoft...lol.

I've said this before: Gamespot's current review layout reminds me of Polygon's, so that's reason enough for me to ignore them.

Rainbow Curse is a perfect candidate for one of Best Buy's B1G1 __% off sales on Wii U games. That and Captain Toad are the last Wii U games I want that I don't already own.

What's all this then?

Probably just a dumb new blu-ray release or something not as awesome as what I don't know I want in my head.

EDIT:  Nevermind I just realized 2015 is the year they go to in part 2 even though I fucking know that because I'm always calling out the dumbasses on the Facebook when they share the photoshopped images with the wrong date.  I'm guessing they're doing fanciness around the actual day Marty is to arrive.  As you were.

How many of those were Cubs fans posting that stupid banner? I hate baseball, live in the south, and do not even have a facebook account and I have seen that shit about 1000 times. I can not imagine how many times you must have seen it.

I could move it up in the Q at any point I guess. I want to read into the game a little more and see how the gameplay compares to Most Wanted. I will try to get to that today. At the moment, I am trying to go through all the sales games to see what if anything I want to add to the backlog.

It's a racing game :)

Rivals on ps3 or ps4 pharm? I just got the ps4 digital version. Also cute chic as your avatar.

Yeah, true, but Burnout is a racing game too and is much much more fun than Most Wanted.

I know Rivals has cops like Most Wanted did, and I hated the cops. It felt like a completely useless game lengthening tactic to me. Just give me arcade style racing without a bunch of other nonsense involved. I could have done without the whole upgrade thing too.

 
I'm almost to the 4th island in Second Son on my exteme playthrough. I don't have that many blast spores, but I just got the electric light power from Fletch. Hopefully I can bang this out in the next couple days.

I got the digital PS4 version too when it was on sale. Cause I like pretty things. See my new avatar pic. It is just some random woman that popped up in the middle of all the other pics on google when I searched "hottest women in the world." I dont know who she is so I thought it would be nice to have as my avatar for a bit.
