Ubisoft confirmed two day one patches totalling ~1 gb. Still a far cry from the rumored 18 gb patch.

Wasn't Grim Fandango Remastered $6 a month or two ago in a flash sale? It still screams "Plus candidate" to me.

EDIT: Yup, looks like it was the same price the week of 8/24: https://psprices.com/region-us/game/87069/grim-fandango-remastered
Probably won't be on Plus any time soon since we just got Broken Age. Seems like a perfect candidate for next year's October lineup which is longer term planning than I care to do.

I'll wait for a good Steam sale.

And for this sale I'll likely pick up Dracula X. Glad I didn't pick it up during the last sale.

 
I've been waiting on a deal for the PSP version of Dracula X Chronicles (remake of Rondo of Blood), it also has a version of Symphony of the Night on it as an unlockable. Easy pick up for $2.25.

Organ Trail launch discount of $6 seems very fair, I would have picked it up if I had a PS4.

I enjoyed BloodRayne Betrayal, it's more in the vein of the older Castlevania titles (linear stage progression), but it is hard and the controls can be a little loose. $2, review.

Grim Fandango for $6 is a possibility, but I agree it has kind of a future PS+ title vibe.

Catherine I've been meaning to get to, maybe I'll play that next.

Wish they would move up the review embargo for AC Syndicate but I'm still hyped because I refuse to learn my lesson. (And didn't play Unity)

is it normal?  I went to put my PS4 in sleep mode after playing Unity a bit this morning.  It said PS4 can't go into sleep mode with this game opened.  It will close before going to sleep.  First game that hasn't allowed me to put it into sleep mode.

Yeah it did that to me too. Sucked but it works.

Wait, the store page mentions "Purchasing this content entitles you to both the PS4™ system and “PS Vita” system versions!" I take it that means there's a vita version? NM then, I'm in.

edit: For some reason only the PS4 version is listed on the sale page.

It has a shared trophy list for both systems, so I don't see why you wouldn't get the Vita version, too.

quiz: what's the correct way to use the A and B buttons on an NES controller - with your thumb or with your index and middle fingers?
Trick question. Everyone knows you use your toes!

Unless your playing Track and Field games then of course its a pencil or similar sized object that you can rock back and forth over the buttons as fast as possible.

 
I forget how lucky I am. I could never date or be married to a girl that didn't worship me. My girl and I absolutely adore and love each other and I couldn't imagine us not getting along. Sometimes we fight over what to order for food or when the kids have to go to sleep etc, but i forget how good I have it. We spent 5 years running a store working together and spent the last year just camming together and we still don't spend enough time with each other. All this divorce talk seems so depressing. Hopefully there are tons more happy couples like us in here and it is just a few vocal cags airing their grievances. I would hate to think so many people are unhappy with their lives/wives. Wren at least is trying to get out of his loveless marriage, but it sucks seeing people like topside saying they hope their wife goes to the movies with him and others saying yeah i hope it goes well. omg. either you love each other or you don't. idk life is too short. hey at least now i know who topside is after a year or so other than the bioshock 2 mp guy ;) He is like wren cept he is trying to save his marriage instead of get the hell away from it, lol

also no trophies in this lowriders gta update. doh. i was hoping for some more trophies! k im gonna go toke n play video games etc

Catherine is great and absolutely worth the $5. Plus it's already been a PS+ title in EU so you don't have to worry about a slap down the road (unless it shows up as a $1 flash sale title.)

I do need to play it again for the plat. When I went through it the first time I wasn't really doing trophies yet.

Yeah that and I think GTAV were the only two games I couldn't suspend. Guess they use up too much ram or something and can't swap to disc or something. Oh and Destiny was another.

 
I've never seen the original cuts of Star Wars. First time I watched through them was in the theaters when they were rereleased. I think I was in like middle school.
 
Um, well they are the same movie, just without all the fake looking bullshit so not sure that's true.
Exactly..it's the same movie, and whatever new fake shit in it never bothered me. It's Star Wars..a science fiction movie. I said I wouldn't like it any better, not that I'd like it less.
 
So for any of you who have not watched Star Wars at all or have kids you were waiting to watch it with. You should try Machete Order. It is a really long blog post that explains why (which you shouldn't read if you haven't watched) that sounds like it really would be the best way to introduce a new person to Star Wars.

I kind of want to watch the movies this way now just to see if the narrative really does flow better.

 
Just had a weird ass argument about if The Walking Dead was Horror or Science Fiction. 

Its fuckin horror for fucks sake
 
Machete order is a pretty cool idea. I read about it quite a while ago and have posted about it in here once or twice, but I've never actually given it a watch. Has anybody in here actually tried it yet?

This will definitely be the way I watch with any kids that I have... my wife is already a lost cause, she has seen episode 1 and new hope and didn't like it. :wall:

 
I have a VHS box trilogy with the black cover and big faces. Kept meaning to bring it to Half Price Books or eBay it.
That was the first re-released version and is not the theatrical... so not sure if you are trying to say it's worth something?

below is the box for the original trilogy, it's the one my parents had and I kick myself for not knowing where it is. The movies themselves have the original movie posters as the covers...

Interesting order. Will probably try out the alternative order the night before the 7th film comes out.

My parents had this when I was younger. No idea if it survived the VHS purge though.

That is an interesting question. The show isn't really scary (well sometimes it is), but it is excessively gory and has reanimated humans, though they are not of a supernatural origin.

All the topes for TWD are horror based rather than the tech or sciency stuff in Sci-Fi. Its not usually scare based horror, but it still definitely falls into the horror genre.
