Oh, they're fun enough while I'm playing. Afterwards I can't remember anything about the story or the big events, though. They all kind of run together into one huge meaningless mess. Chains of Sparta is the most recent one I played and I can barely remember anything aside from the basic premise of
Kratos having a brother that was captive for some reason or other.
I remember who the end boss was but don't have a clue what was supposed to drive the story forward other than the rescue mission. :whistle2:k I remember even less of 2 which I last year.
I don't remember a damn thing about the story in most of them either. It don't make no nevermind to me. I just like killing some fuckers and big ass boss fights and cool ass weapons.

 
I am pretty surprised that there hasn't been a marvel game that wasn't Lego based or figure-on-a-pedestal in a while. Was deadpool the last one?
There was Amazing Spider-Man 2 last year. They've been putting out a bunch of mobile games. 7 mobile games over the last 2 years.

Looking at the release list, this is the last non-mobile X-men released and it came out in 2011. It got mediocre reviews, mostly around the 30-50% mark depending on platform. I remember liking X-Men Legends quite a bit. Never did play X-men Legends II and it's a bit late to bother now. I'd like to see an updated release on that same basic formula.

What solution did your CS reps come up with? I still haven't gotten anything "official" from mine.
confirmed that today's promotion is tied to the orders. it's apparently supposed to take 24-48h for it to reflect with existing preorders, but I've got it in email now that it should apply and that should be good enough ammunition if it doesn't apply and I'm feeling greedy.

edit - the 24-48h claim is also on the promo fine print, so I'm going to roll with it.

Well, I'm skeptical it's going to work. They just said my order is now eligible for the 15% discount and they said my credit card will get a refund in a matter of days. That's clearly not right since they don't charge until they ship, so probably I'm not really part of the club, but I did save the chat transcript. I'll have something to argue with if I don't end up getting the 15% discount when the charge me.

It would be nice if the discount was automatic, but at least we have the chat transcripts.

I did end up grabbing tylers game wreathe and a Fallout wallet from ThinkGeek. Its smaller size will break my habit of carrying the dozens of cards for places I don't need around with me. Plus I've got a fever, and the only cure is more Fallout.

I'm dying to go back and finish New Vegas, or possibly even restart it after I finish Fallout 4 in two years. I'm like 50 some hours into 4 and at level 41 and still haven't touched like any of the main quest line. God help me when the DLC releases.

They also had a Lego Christmas Wreate but it looks like shit. I guess you can put your own bricks on though.

On the flip side, the Legend of Drink is awful.

The Legend of Vodka? The Liquor of Zelda? (probably couldn't use that one) There's gotta be something better than The Legend of Drink.

The Legend of Vodka: Drinks of Slakening?

fuck platform accuracy when the name is that bad.

Yeah I know slakening isn't a real word.

This Skytorn game from the devs of Towerfall looks sweet.

I guess they announced it at PSX last year, I don't remember hearing about it.

 
I can't believe that dariusburst is $40.  I was really looking forward to playing it, but no way.  I'm holding on to my ps4 20% off coupon until sf5 drops and maybe I'll get it at the same time if it hasn't had a decent sale.
