Hey, I hate to be so negative in this thread. but the pink haired chic that was over last night died in a car crash a few hours ago. I'm not religious or anything like that, but pray for her up in heaven. Shit like that is always fucked up.

Man, sorry to hear that dude. Crazy.

Oh yeah I get character development. My favorite show is Lost, and that was 95% character development. But fuck, there's a difference between developing your characters and just saying the same shit over and over to fill up time because you have no idea what direction you want your story to go in.

That's an absolutely terrible choice for favorite show. Golden Girls would have been better. Hell, even Gilmore Girls would have been better. Lost? Really?

:shame:

I actually did know who he was after youtubing a scene, just not by name. It really doesn't fit him at all.

You do know his dad is Martin Sheen and brother Charlie Sheen, right? Martin Sheen was born Ramon Estevez, but he and Carlos took stage names.

Ouch. That sucks. Sorry to hear it, man.

 
I'm sorry to hear that Velo. Its always harshly sobering when something like that happens so close to home for someone. Best wishes to her family and loved ones.

Yeah I know. Their names dont fit either of them. Martin was even told he looked Irish when he was starting.

 
You guys remember that BioShock tease with Eve's Garden? Looks like it was just for an iOS port:

BRB--going to go cry in the corner. :cry:

(Destructoid already made the BiOShock joke, so don't bother.)

I had ignored Bioshock for many years but the hype for Infinite got me to pick up the Rapture edition last year when it released. Got maybe halfway through Bioshock 1 and was so bored with it I just traded it away. Bad level design, boring atmosphere, lackluster story (and yes I knew about the big twist), and dated graphics just made it hard for me to slog through.

Thanks again for the inspiration all you inFamous shard hunters. Went back and finished off the last three trophies for the Enslaved platinum, including those orbs which were a bitch to find, but the journey has ended successfully from a fun ass game.

fine fine call off your dogs. I'll replay enslaved next because it's totally bitchass awesome.
 
who is this group of people that wants to play bioshock on their iphone? who is the target market here? I literally can't figure it out. maybe they just have some intern working on it or something so it doesn't cost them much. bioshock / bioshock 2 on vita? or remastered for next gen? probably would've been day one for me at this point. ios? what the fuck? who is buying this?

How tough was the plat? Don't want to "proceed at my own risk" to view .org trophy site.

 
Bioshock iPhone is great news, people. It pretty much confirms that the only thing stopping a Vita port is the willingness to create it. If people eat up the iOS version, then maybe a port to Vita won't be far behind.

If people eat up the iOS version, they might just port that to Vita, touch controls and all. :puke:

(But if it had a plat, I still might get it.)

How tough was the plat? Don't want to "proceed at my own risk" to view .org trophy site.[/quote]It's not too horrible. I did the Hard playthrough right from the start, so if you get all the collectables the first time around, that's all you need. I recall I had to play a little bit after to get enough currancy to buy all the upgrades for that trophy. But I missed a bunch of collectables my first time, so I had to go back and play almost all the chapters to find them. And the ones that I couldn't find after that I finally broke down and followed a guide. There's also some time related performance trophies you can't really do on hard difficulty, so you'll have to play those again on easy. A couple hard sections, but I powered through.

I highly recommend the game. When I went back to it yesterday after so long away, I realized that I really really liked this game. Great atmosphere. Great combat. Cool mech noises. Amazing motion capture cutscenes and voice acting.

I'll probably try to knock out the DLC tonight.

EDIT: Not sure if it was clear above, but yes there is chapter select after you beat the game. Tells you percentage of collectables you found, so it's helpful some, but not as much as saying exactly how many you need.

Hey we don't know that touch controls are going to be awful. A port to Vita would at least let you use the analog sticks, face buttons, and triggers. I could only see touch controls being used for plasmid/weapon switching. Maybe the hacking game. I feel like on Vita it would be very minor things that they'd have touch control for.
 
shit somehow I skipped over the page where the pink hair girl stuff came up. really sorry to hear about that velo, keep yours safe and you know where to find us if you need anything. we're your little internet support clan now, don't forget it.

Pretty much sums up how I felt. Never finished 1 either.

 
I don't understand how you people think BioShock has no atmosphere. That's the thing the game is dripping with.

And Lost is the bee's pajamas. I'd never been obsessed with a show as much as I was with Lost (hence the 108 in my screen name).
 
enslaved. one of my top 5 'don't skip these games dummy' from the last generation. in no particular order:

1. vanquish
2. enslaved
3. portal 2
4. batman: aa
5. littlebigplanet

honorable mention to remember me, even though it's janky it's a cool game that probably quite a few people ignored. and men's room mayhem of course.

I hope you're right. It could work really well if done properly.

You misspelled Spec Ops: The Line as LittleBigPlanet. Common mistake. :shame:

You should watch Once Upon A Time, then. It's by the same writers and has the same terrible problem of more screentime = shittier character.

 
I wish konami or someone would've had the balls to make a guardians of the galaxy themed old school brawler like the 6 player xmen game to release with the movie.

Can't even "like" this ironically; that's just awful.

RIP Pink Chick :(

We finally watched the first episode of The Wire. Yeah, late a bit. Ok, so it's engaging, but you could make a drinking game out of it. Every time somebody says fuck you take a drink. You wouldn't make it 20 minutes into the show. I say fuck a fair bit, but jesus h velo, these people hold a record or something.

If you think it is bad, you may not want to watch Dexter. I think the chick we were debating on her attractiveness the other day had to have set the record for the use of that word in a series.

Sorry Velo to hear about that, crazy since you were just talking about her...

Moving up true trophy CAG leader board, moved two spots thanks to plat in MAdden 12 and a few more NHL 14 trophies.  Probably won't be able to plat NHL due to two online trophies, but I have got some pretty rare online and other trophies for it.  I know NHL 15 will be the same since they haven't changed trophies since NHL 11 really as far as EASHL and HUT go.. :(

My platinum backlog grows adding Infamous 2 and Saints Row the third...  Not to mention I preordered Madden 15 and NHL 15 and once I get my GC from Directv I will be adding GTA V as well....

I know you could go back, but there was some limitation like maybe you had to finish the chapter for it to count or something? I don't recall, sorry.

You just have to make it to te next checkpoint for them to count/save. So you don't have to replay an entire level, just make it to the next section if you think you found your last missing one.
