PSN Off-Topic - Happy Thanksgiving Chumps and Chumpettes!

[mpaullin]

That Strike Suit Zero game looks really cool, but reviews say its boring?

The fact that it is one of the free games on Xbone means it has potential to be a PS+ game. Oh, and I did play it for a bit and found it to be pretty ing boring. Suggest waiting.

How long has it been since we had a a good space dog fighting game? There were a couple pretty sweet Star Wars games on PS2 and Gamcube (man I want a new Rogue Squadron) but basically nothing since.

 

[QuarterRoy00]

Is this poll pre-tax or post-tax? Cause that changes my answer.

 

[endergeek123]

Why the hell did my comment show up blank lol. Oh well, I edited my original comment back in

 

[QuarterRoy00]

I did a draft yesterday while cruising along the highway yesterday afternoon using the Yahoo app. Worked like a charm. And I didn't even crash. Well I have Jake Locker as my starting QB so maybe I did.

Didn't it release at like $23 or something? People should not support them just for overpricing their mediocre game through the roof.

Pre. When I've reported income it's always been pre-tax unless they specifically ask me for my post-tax income.

There sure are a lot of unsafe drivers in this thread!

It launched at $20. That price kept even me away.

I probably missed a few but the last one I really liked that I can remember is Colony Wars back on the PS1.

Hmm I thought it was more than that even. Weird.

There's no ing way. If you honestly are hoping even a little tiny bit, stop.

It was free on Origin GameTime.

Not that that helps a console peasant or somebody who wants to play more than 3 days.

This Obesity Action Coalition sounds pretty sweet. I think I'll subscribe to their newsletter.

 

[QuarterRoy00]

I'm awfully tempted by Into the Nexus. Feel it could go cheaper. But sounds like a quick easy plat.

It is. I love the series and was happy to have a real Ratchet game again after the last couple of duds they made. It was very short though.

 

[tylerh1701]

I'm locking in my PS4 PS+ guesses as Velocity 2X and Awesomenauts.

PS3 and Vita, who the hell knows.  So let's go with Portal 2, Constant C, Dynasty Warriors, Lego LotR.

That would be a pretty darn good month. I would be totally ok with that

 

[GamingGator]

Tyler, you mentioned getting that Tiny Brains game.  It appears to be co-op only based on the description.  Am I missing something?

I know its not..just saying cause I hate buying games nowadays for full price

I wonder what the other 70% of girls with excess weight and 76% of boys with excess weight do differently so they aren't being bullied. That sounds like a great way to waste a bunch of grant money, right there.

 

[wrencrest]

As Gator said. Do it. It is great R and C fun. (Somewhat) short and sweet. I wish more games were about the same length. It was fun the entire way through and didnt get boring because it didnt outstay its welcome.

It is so obvious you never play Dynasty Warriors when you don't elaborate which one you mean. Next? 8 Xtreme Legends Complete Edition? I'd prefer the latter.

I was under the impression it could be played solo as well. I need to do more research I guess.

Yeah, the two I mentioned are on Vita.

boss is on vacation so lets see how little attention I can pay during this staff meeting.

 

[ctrlcthenctrlv]

Stuffing my face with Hot Pockets is a disease and I won't stand for people making fun of my illness.

 

[tylerh1701]

oh. um....

all I want to know is if Guuacamelee is on sale boi.

 

[GamingGator]

If the boss is on vacation, why in the hell are you having a staff meeting. Doesn't that kind of defeat the purpose?

 

[Vigilante]

Are you OK with sitting for it?

 

[QuarterRoy00]

Includes entitlement for the Full Digital version of Ratchet & Clank Future: Quest for Booty™.

Oh shit. Forgot Nexus gives you Quest for Booty for free too. So double games = sold!

Now to find room for their giant ing gigasizes.

 

[laundrymatt]

oh. um....

Shtu it dick faggtz, just anser the damm ?? This is i want to no to.

 

[captaintek3304]

Listen boi all I want to know is if Guaacameeleee on ps4 is on sale.

You basically have to spell it out for these bois.

 

[mitch079]

I have to assume your mouth and tongue have all nerve endings and taste buds decimated by doing that.

Dark Souls II: Crown of the Old Iron King (DLC) - http://www.ign.com/articles/2014/08/26/dark-souls-2-crown-of-the-old-iron-king-review

The Golf Club - http://www.ign.com/articles/2014/08/26/the-golf-club-review

I keep going back and forth on that Golf Club game. If the gameplay is really as true to form as they say, it could be good, but the animations from the video someone posted the other day made it look kinda low in quality. If they put it up at 50% off at some point, I may give it a shot. Been a while since I've played a sim golf game.

speaking of emmys is modern family actually funny? I bet I've tried to watch it ten times and I haven't thought so yet, but it seems I always hear about the award shows shoveling statues on top of it.

Love Modern Family. Best comedy, IMO on network TV right now. Definitely not overrated.

I only made it about 3 or 4 episodes into Breaking Bad. I'm wondering if I should just skip season 1 and start with season 2. It started out promising, but after a few more episodes it just seemed OK. Maybe it gets better later?

Definitely don't skip it. I wasn't a huge fan of most of the first 2 1/2 seasons, but I thought in the 3rd, then all of the 4th and the first half of the 5th, made it worth the wait. Still don't think it was as good as people hyped it up to be, but definitely a really good show overall.

It does? That must be new, I tried to do a baseball draft from my phone with ESPN app earlier this year and it wouldn't work.

Nobody has thoughts on cable? $10/month for 25 channels worth it?

Do netflix/hulu and bum someone's cable login for ESPN.

Another good but short Ratchet game. Too bad there were not trophies in it though.

I hear the Mitt Romney cosplay there is top-notch.

I hear Awesomenauts is great, so that would be a very welcome PS+ addition. Where do I place my vote?

meh, nm.

big thanks to handsome pete for helping me get some boosting-req'd trophies for R&C:FF and KZ:Ms.   I'd like to nominate him for a best of thread award.
