I just noticed that MGS: Peace Walker has an online trophy that's made easier by playing missions with someone else via co-op. Would anyone be interested in helping me out with that? I don't know when I'd get to PW since I plan on taking a short break from MGS after Snake Eater, so it would be a "whenever" timeframe. I figured I'd ask now before I forget.

I might be able to, but I can't guarantee it.

 
If you have Amazon prime, the complete Batman the Animated Series and Superman the Animated series are available to stream free. And apparently so is the complete power rangers according to things recommended at the bottom of the page.

Apparently I waited too long to play 3D Dot Game Heroes. All of the best character sites (including the official website) have gone the way of the Dodo, I've only been able to find pockets of custom characters.

If you can find a URL for where a site used to be, don't forget you can always bring it back via the internet archive.

I think you had to choose at the beginning what controls to use. Maybe you can change in the options though, I am not sure. It is much much better with the touch controls, IMO.

In season two at least you can go back and forth between touch and buttons as you wish. I've done one QTE with analog stick, then the next by tapping. Dat innovation!
 
I liked the Prince of Persia games but the first one was the only one I finished.

I really wish they had subtitles as well. All games should have subtitles. When you're playing late at night with the volume turned down, or there are kids yelling at the same time subtitles are a must.

I've watched up to Season 1, episode 3 of Doctor Who (the new version). I put it on sometimes when the kids are getting ready for bed to stop the endless onslaught of children's television.

Damn instant streaming. In my day you had to -wait- for a show to come on!

I find it hilarious that this guy says it saved him time and money. Was he really planning to buy a (I have to assume) shitty and completely unfun DLC for trophies only? Gaming: it's not fun, it's a job. Ok, I know that this kind of post is against the rules here. Sorry.

You can't search for them in-game? I don't remember exactly it's been forever.

Was the 360 dead in Europe? I know it killed in the US and sucked balls in Japan, but I don't really know what the EU was like.
Click to expand...
It wasn't dead, but it got spanked pretty badly by PS3. Not nearly as bad as PS4 is going to spank Xbone though. Those that bought 360 last gen in Europe realized how little Microsoft cares about them and how US-centric Microsoft is. If you buy an Xbone in Europe you're a fuck ing idiot who is going to end up complaining about a lack of games and support from MS all generation.

Someone in that thread posted that the game actually ran better without the patch. Can any of you confirm/deny? I may try for the trophy glitch, but I don't want to have to wade through tons of bugs/glitches (I know some persist even after patches) to get them.
Click to expand...
As a rule of thumb, very few games really ever work better without a distributed patch. Id start it up just to get the trophies and then patch it afterwards before really playing the game.

Good idea. For some reason I was thinking you'd have to complete single player unpatched to get them.

So pete left me to get my ass kicked all by myself in TLoU this morning. Thanks pete.

Fortunately, after many ass-whoopings, CAiNiAC came in and saved the day. Sort of. He kicked ass, I sucked ass. Same thing, right?
Click to expand...
Haha. I was on a roll that first game despite my team still all dying less than a minute in. Though I did have my ass taken a few times too. It was unfortunate that matchmaking put us on opposing teams the first few times despite being partied up. You did well on checkpoint when I saw you last man standing against 3 of my team. I went down early that round lol. You'll hit your stride in it if you stick with it.

One thing I like about survivors mode, other than personally finding it the most fun, is that its a great learning tool. You're forced to really think about every move you make and choice you take since you only have 1 life each round. And if you do actually die, you can watch your teammates picking up either great pointers or learning from their mistakes as well. I've seen some players wipe out a full team singlehandedly after their allys all died early.

Some people really really care about their completion percentages. I was perfectly happy not getting the DLC trophies, and I wouldn't have if it wasn't for that glitch. No glitch, I'd just be sitting at a 95% or whatever! and be perfectly happy with it. Completion % doesn't matter to me. Part of the reason I don't care about getting to level 50 in Bioshock.
 
I still marvel that Simmias has or had 100%.  Even being anywhere near it is unbelievable to me.  There are so many trophies I look at and no there is know way in hell I would ever get them.  I could play a game a thousand times and not get some of these trophies.  I would shoot myself in the face well before that though anyway.

Yet you cared about reaching Rank 100 in GTA Online (probably because it was relatively effortless)? :roll:

He only had to leave his ps3 running for 72 hours for that. Totally different from spending 8 more hours chatting with people and pressing a button. One is insane, the other is _____? (hint:insane)

 
I have a really random celeb story, nowhere as cool as Simmias but I always thought this was pretty strange and funny. A few years back I was hunting down CAG deals at K-mart. So I go in and head for the electronics section. When I get there I see a woman near the game cases on the phone. She is chatting away but for some reason she looks familiar to me. I'm like where the hell do I know this lady from? So I go about my business don't really find much so I head to the next isle. I look near the register and I see this guy look over at me. He's got chops, a handlebar mustache, and a shaved head. I go about my business. I head to the next isle and I see him again. Then it hits me who this person is. It's John Travolta and the familiar looking woman was Kelly Preston. It must have been around the time he was filming The Taking Of Pelham because his look matched his in the movie.

So him and his wife were buying a bunch of random stuff like Portable DVD players and assorted electronics. He got a little upset when they wanted his zip code to pay for his purchases because the clerk was being pushy for some reason over it. Overall though he was really cool, polite, and he took pictures with everyone that asked. Talk about random.

Strange thing is I don't see the dupe. ??? Maybe Tapatalk, in lieu of fixing the problem, now hides the dupes (I guess this will be duped too).

It does that to me on my phone and on my work laptop. I think the site itself just slows down sometimes?

It took me way to long to figure out what was funny about that gif. I thought at first we were making fun of the cheerleader or whatever going to the bigger woman first. I didnt even see the kid until I looked at it about 10 times.

Classic doped up wrencrest quoting the wrong gif.

Vag, maybe if I compared how I like getting platinums to how you spend 12 hours a day flipping games for 15 cent profits, then you'd understand.

Where did you get this idea of me? I haven't done much flipping lately, but when I do, I only spend 1-2 hours at most for at least 50% profit. I haven't paid cash for purchases at Gamestop, Best Buy, or Amazon for nearly 3 years now.

Probably the same place you got the ridiculous idea that I do retarded things for DLC trophies/completion.

I only spend time getting trophies for at least a platinum. I haven't spent time doing stupid DLC grinds for trophies, completion percent, or epeen in nearly 3 years now.
