If you do skip AC Unity, at least watch this.  I thought this part was neato (spoilered for those of you who aren't this far along):

The optional supporting objectives idea in Unity was a really good idea too - there's one (I can't remember which) where if you help someone outside a heavily guarded building/palace then he'll set off fireworks behind the building for the whole mission which makes most of the guards inside watch them through the back doors/windows, making them all face one direction.  I tried it both ways and it was a lot tougher to sneak around without the fireworks.  That's pretty clever.

I always tried for poison + incognito (+ focus if it was available with poison on brotherhood, don't remember) on my first target to buffer my score before everyone started getting antsy. Except for the people that were really confident/patient, it seemed like everyone that played brotherhood mp eventually ended up like the thugs in arkham asylum. more and more nervous over time, more erratic movement, punching anything that moves, etc - until they finally just end up gunning/runstabbing everything.

man I loved that game

We all talked about how out of place that part was last night, lol. With that said, it was kind of fun.

That would be level 9 mission 2. The main reason that both wren and myself were frustrated just a bit last night.

out of place? absolutely. very very nice to look at? definitely. it's also a good example of how functional the free running mechanics are now. I don't actually remember if it was fun, all I remember is the video game score missions you unlock after those and how those were obscenely out of place.

 
Yeah, I didnt get the fireworks guy at first cause he was walking away from the objective so far I thought it was wrong to follow him.  But it definitely pays to do the optional distractions for each mission.  If you want the 100% its a must to get all the objectives in one play.

I remember when me and my brother went to the casino in the Dells and I hit a Royal Flush on the draw poker machines. My brother looked at me stunned, then moments later said "lappers". Good ol Cruisin' Chubbys.

Even if it is not a great lineup overall for Xbox this month, I would say Just Cause 2 makes the Xbox lineup better than Plus on its own. I am not one of the retail or bust morons, but Plus this month consisted of a tech demo that people decided to pay for and a lot of oddball games.

What Gator really means is that Sony sucks. Long live MS!

 
If anyone was interested in the Persona 4 rhythm game...

I'm not a fan of the pricing ($80 for the Disco Fever Edition, $50 for the standard game), but still, Disco Fever Edition from Best Buy for me because GCU.

Have we had this conversation? Do you guys think the Vita could run PS2 games? Seems like an easy way to open up the library even more.

Dunno how plausible it is, but if I could throw a bunch of ps2 classics on my vita I'd spend even more money on games I'd never get around to playing.

Based on how Unity has been running I am fairly excited to play it as well at launch. Especially with the bonus which will make it a free rental most likely. No MP? Perfect! Although playing with Munky and Gator last night was fun.

Anyone down to play Friday (anytime) or Saturday night? Wouldn't mind knocking out some of the co op trophies.

My favorite was from GAF, about Pool Nation:

"They ran some numbers and figured with the load times in that game, some needed 3 months to finish it."

You guys probably don't know, but Pool Nation FX on X1 is supposedly an unfinished unoptimized piece of shit with awful load times and constant crashing. Paul tried to stream it and couldn't successfully finish a full game. Maybe they've patched since then, but it was pretty clearly released before it was ready to meet the GWG deadline. So it's funny that they've left probably the objectively worst GwG game on there for 3 months now.

I'm actually going to be off tomorrow, so if by anytime you mean during the day then we could play some of the 2 player missions then at least. I wont be around tomorrow night, but Saturday works for me.

 
And 20 seconds left! I don't understand how this motorstorm rc plat is so common. This is actually kinda tough. At the very least it requires some dedication.

Absolutely not. Vita can run PS2 games that have been ported, yes, even after HD conversion, but emulation requires a much more powerful system than what you're trying to emulate.

Having said that, there's absolutely no reason they can't release a better PSP emulator. PPSSPP works great on Android devices for running PSP games at 2x or 3x the original resolution. The Vita is definitely powerful enough to run 2x or maybe even native Vita resolution PSP games. I've never been happy with the PSP emulator on Vita because of that.

I tried out PPSSPP on a computer once, that shit ran like butter even when upping the resolution...3rd birthday looked awesome...so I agree.

There only being one new Xbone game is not surprising since its been that way pretty much all along. Not going to defend them on that strategy since it is just foolish considering what Sony is bringing, but Massive Chalice is a good get. I was probably going to buy that day 1 anyway.

It's a pretty good month for 360, IMO. Both are previous Plus titles, but the fact that they are yours to keep do make them a little more valuable in my mind. I think that's the reason why the 360 GWG tend to be much older. That said, I think the Thief might be the "newest" disc based game to go free on 360. So that's something, I guess.

Will they feature bribery and the FBI coming in to arrest most of the FIFA execs. And do you play the CEO or Pres or whatever he is of FIFA who doesnt get any charges brought against him?

I mean Qatar in 2022??!! What a fuck ing joke!

Sepp Blatter, and he will most likely be getting his soon once they turn these guys who just got hauled in.

Everything so far basically stems from Chuck Blazer who is a former us fifa rep who apparently at one point wore a wire, weighed 450 lbs, and had a penthouse in Trump Towers for his cats.
