Also no Arkham City preload on Steam? Are you seriously going to make everyone wait until noon tomorrow and let your servers get demolished? Really?
 
[quote name='Chacrana']Rolento, you're going to love 999. I don't care how you feel about the premise. Just buy it and fucking play it.

DO IT.[/QUOTE]

fuck. you are mean. I have a ton of shit to play right now. >_<

but the price is so good ... gah!

Ain't WB's servers, what do they care?

Look at it this way: You get paid to go to school. 999 will school you.
 
[quote name='RelentlessRolento']I'm on the fence on getting 999. I hear it's damn good, but the premises is something I really am not into (similar to how I don't like horror films). I know it's a visual novel, but... yeah I don't know. lol

I say this and I love Hotel Dusk with a passion
[/QUOTE]


Just for comparison, I absolutely hate the SAW movies, which have a similar premise. And the main appeal isn't in the horror of the game (although it certainly has plenty of that), it's more of a mystery game at it's core. And despite being a visual novel, it fully takes advantage of the interactive nature of the medium in a way I've not seen done in any other game.

I love Hotel Dusk with a passion too. Shame it didn't do so well in the US.

Don't listen to him. 999 has horror elements, but it's not the main appeal. It's more of a mystery game at its core, and despite being a VN, it's more interactive than those games tend to be.
 
[quote name='distgfx']Hai Guyz, I pre-ordered Lollipop Chainsaw.[/QUOTE]

I don't pre-order games, but I'd buy that shit day 1. Cuz yo. Tits are sweet.
 
[quote name='RelentlessRolento']I want to try and avoid going over $700, but if I have to I will.[/QUOTE]
I'm going to be (trying) getting the (UN55D6005) 55" Samsung LED (1080p 120hz). At Best Buy on bf, its $1000 - but they may have a smaller size for less. Still researching it though...

This shouldn't have made me laugh, but it did.

[quote name='distgfx']Hai Guyz, I pre-ordered Lollipop Chainsaw.[/QUOTE]

I will eventually do the same, but have no real incentive to do so yet since the game won't be out for a while, and I get my games from amazon anyway.

Panasonic VIERA, dammit, especially if you're playing fighters.

Where do you think I pre-ordered it from? It was in my Goldbox.

I see. I hope it pops up in mine sometime in the next few months.
 
Also, completely disregard what I just said. And disregard anyone who recommends a Samsung.

I would've just let you buy a Samsung, but if you actually did on my fake say-so... I'd feel kinda bad.
 
[quote name='hankmecrankme']This 100%.[/QUOTE]

Agreed. My 2007 Panasonic Viera Plasma still looks amazing. I just wish I could've bought a bigger one at the time.
 
[quote name='RelentlessRolento']So real talk: wtf TV should I get or should I wait? Fighters are high priority of what I'll play on it.

Direct links plz too[/QUOTE]

We just told you like... 3 times over, and you're the one who linked us to a list.

[quote name='Halo05']If I was buying a new TV today, and had less than $800 to spend, this is what I would buy.

Thx. I'll wait I guess. Kinda realized I'm not a plasma type of guy
 
[quote name='Chacrana']wut why :([/QUOTE]

Mostly cuz of burn in. I leave my shit on for a llong ass time most days both for programming and gaming.

Plus LCD has always been good to me
 
$$$$a please, you just upgraded from gaming on a Commodore 64 like last week. Just because LCD's been good to you for like 30 minutes don't mean it's tha shyt.

Cuz it ain't

The only way u gonna get burn in on a plasma nowadays is if you honestly do leave it on a static image all day. You use it as a PC monitor, for example... yeah, mo problems.

But if you play games on it like a normal person it's rad. It looks so much betta than dat Puff Daddy Radio u kallin' an LCD an' plus it ain't got dat input lag problems.
 
Burn in is indeed a problem with plasmas if you plan to leave the screen on a static image for a long time. I don't know specifically how that one everyone is recommending fairs with the issue though.

I think you mean "fares."

Looking passed what this idiot says, burn-in is only a problem nowadays if you leave the TV on for seriously like 12 hours. And if you do that your just unresponsible.
 
It can be a problem if you are playing a game with something static on the screen though, like HUD items such as a mini-map or health bar.

Like you said, it would have to be for a really long time though.

I've had the same game with HUD on for 6+ hours straight and not had a problem. Burn in is either overblown or people just play games for days at a time because they have no life.

[quote name='BlueScrote']What is a mid-level graphics card for computers that aren't designed to play video games? I'm building my parents a computer and am reusing most of my old parts, but I don't have a spare graphics card since my last one died before being replaced.[/QUOTE]

Anyone?
 
I highly recommend checking out the two latest episodes of the Irrational Interviews podcast. It's a 2-part interview with Guillermo del Toro. Dude's really smart and funny, and talks about his approach to game design, which really makes me think the game's going to turn out great.
 
[quote name='ihadFG']He's making a survival horror game with Volition called Insane.[/QUOTE]

Volition should change their name to Violation.

Because their games fall below any standard of decency.
 
[quote name='ihadFG']But Red Faction Guerrilla was awesome.

And Saint's Row 3 is supposed to be really good.[/QUOTE]

I believe it when I'm dead and gone, burning in hell where my punishment is to play the Saint's Row games for all eternity. If I somehow start having fun and liking SR3, I'll be glad to say I was wrong. :lol:
 
[quote name='hankmecrankme']I really want a cheap MGS HD Collection for PS3 this week.

Preferably from Amazon.

Make it happen.[/QUOTE]

The universe gave me a copy and $10. I was pretty stoked. :cool:

It is, it makes GTA look like a poor man's Saints Row.

That must make GTA look pretty bad.
 
Thanks for the plasma "advice". I'm looking into that now -- I've been out of the TV arena for a while now, so its tough learning where everything is at. So LED is still shit for gaming?

And I'm with rero, I'm worried about burn in. I do leave my TV on at times, but I'm more concerned with say Skyrim health bar burn in. After I play it for 20 hours straight... will it still be there?
