pancakes/chewy - any geometry wars news? Started back in last night trying to beat the dev scores and continuing the three star bonanza.
Not much news just trying to finish adventure mode. I have been going back to some of the lower levels and trying to three star them. I really want to get 110 stars so I can try out the clone attachment.

 
There were a lot, but I don't think there were too many of them. That might have been because I did several of them between story missions. I thought the worst aspect of the side-missions was that you couldn't restart them, but quit them and be forced to trek back to the mission-start point. :headache:
That was frustrating since you go into those pretty blind in terms of what you need to do. I remember not realizing one was timed and was way too far to have a chance to finish.

As far as there not being too many... not even those slave rescue missions which were pretty much the same damn thing over and over?

 
Man, that MLB 14 trophy list is kinda stupid. I might purposely avoid getting a trophy in this game so it doesn't drag my completion percentage down as I doubt I'll bother trying for them.

Nope, since I never really got tired of stealthing everything. I might have started to feel slightly fatigued when I had only those missions to finish before completing the story missions for the plat, but I only had 4-5 of them to do by that point. I otherwise mixed things up by doing a few slave rescue missions between other side-quest stuff.

 
Pharm, has LoS2 improved at all in the time you've been playing since you last mentioned it?
It has improved a bit as there have been some decent boss fights and more action. Overall the combat is still fun. The beginning was just painfully slow with a lot of nothing happening. The game is just not nearly as polished as the first. Somehow they went backward in the graphical dept. But for $5 it is still worth it for me. Especially if I can trade it in to BB for $10.

Yeah, I wish they would've put in trophies based in the RTTS and franchise modes.

If you want any shot at the plat, you have to pretty much cheese the game with a super roster, and they still are pretty hard even with that.

I just assumed the MLB 14 devs hate trophy boosters and wanted to fuck with them. Or they hate trophies for some reason.

 
You guys are nuts, MLB 14 is a super easy plat.

wait till u get to the modern day parts and the stealth sections. :roll: :roll:

 
Stopped by Kmart before work. Got a $5 los2 and blands 2 vita for $10. No ground zeroes unfortunately, even though I have the 100% already I wanted another copy. electronics lady said they're getting out of the gaming business. Oh, and they have nfl popcorn runs for $5, got a packers one of course.

It's pretty stupid, but not hard you just have to make a super roster basically. Hell, Eldritch got the plat for it...
 
There are some short (and dumb) stealth like sections throughout the game so far and even one around a boss battle.  Nothing too bad but they are fuck ing stupid and part of why the game sucks compared to the first.  Just let me kill things!

I wouldn't call it super easy. A lot of the trophies are just based on luck.

It would've been even easier if I had known you could use player lock to get the individual player trophies. I wouldn't have had to sit through all the pitching and batting through the order. The stupid trophy guide on PST said using player lock would disable trophies. I didn't find out they were wrong until I was going for the Cabrera trophy as my last one. If I remember correctly from watching your stream, you also didn't know about using player lock.

 
You can buy it online with free shipping though, if you're interested.

Definitely nice to hear. I've heard all the "blah blah God of War should die blah blah" but screw that, I'd love a new God of War for PS4.
Yeah this/was mail order only I think. I have never seen a PS4 or XBox One in the actual store. I was in Shoprite on Saturday and didn't see any. They sometimes have upto 50" TVs and in the past GPSes and stuff like that but never seen consoles.

I looked briefly on Saturday at my local Kmart. Slim pickings. No Ground Zero. They had 4 display cases for all video games. I didn't look too hard but didn't even notice Vita games at all. I would have grabbed Blands 2 for vita for $10 though if they had it and would sell it at that price.

1 of them was already re-purposed for Net 10 cell phone and sim cards. It wouldn't shock me if there were no video games at all there after say January. Since their sales a couple years ago I pretty much never even think to look there anymore anyway.

Stotch, as you know more about destiny than I do, do you know if you keep a rep package in the post office until after the tuesday update, when you pick it up will it have a commendation in it, or is it only new rep levels hit post update?

Screwed up and went up a rep level on FWC with my titan, left package in post office.

Also sitting on a few legend engrams in hopes that if wait till post patch they might give me the new legends.

 
I didn't think the MLB plat was that bad either after downloading the super rosters and optimized settings. Sure it was a little frustrating to start over some of them after one little mess up, and the Cabrerra one can eat it, but overall it was fun to play with the super roster. It's my 2nd highest TT scoring plat (after Disney Infinity).
 
You guys talking about MLB 14's plat as being relatively easy to get (boredom aside) plus its high TT score is making me consider trying for it myself, and you know how I feel about sports. :joystick:

so wait, you CAN use player lock for the player trophies?!  If so I may pick it up on the cheap to get some of the other trophies... wow that would have made waiting through the whole batting order a lot easier on some of them.

 
Did you just get really lucky or something? I remember trying for a couple of those crazy trophies and never really coming close. I dont care much though and didnt keep trying more than a couple times. So maybe its a matter of time?
Well I did it on PS3 and PS4, so I would have had to get super super lucky. But no, it's actually a really easy plat.

For any of the player trophies, you can just keep extending the game past 9 innings to get them. Play as the away team, try to do what you need in your inning. If you score, then let up runs to tie the game in the bottom of the inning so that you keep going.

Sliders take about a minute to adjust, and you can download a roster to get the players you want, already all jacked up. I don't think there's a single luck based trophy in the game.

Yes.

The trophies for 13 were definitely luck based. A lot of them had to do with hitting exact spots with home runs in certain parks.

How long did it take you though?

the cabrera one... I mean there isn't an automatic way to hit a homerun, you have to get lucky on that... the others you are right

Honestly, no idea. Someone asked this on reddit and people said it wouldn't work since that package was delivered before the update. That makes sense to me, but at the same time, no one has a clue how it's going to work. What I'm doing, is just stopping once I get pretty close to a rank up. Then I should be able to hit one on each character tomorrow. What I'm curious about, is how many commendations each item will cost. If it's one, that's cool, but it can take a few days to get a faction up if you're getting shitty bounties that only give 50 rep for each one.
 
Fun fact. If you watch The Wire on Amazon Prime Instant Video on:

Xbox 360: it shows it in 4:3

PS4: it shows it 16:9

Fire TV stick: it shows it 16:9

I am not sure if it is cropping the image or if it is unmatting it, but I wish there was a way on the latter two to make it show it 4:3 since that's apparently how it was shot. For that HD remaster that's happening the director isn't entirely happy with the 16:9 cut even after his revision of the first draft. Why don't they just HD-iz it but leave it 4:3?

Having said all this, after we finish season 3 I'm taking a break. I'm kind of sick of the show at this point. Oh, and Xbox 360 wins.

Well I didnt know about this player lock thing.  If that means I dont have to sit through most of the games I might try and go back to MLB 14.  Just to fuck with ya'lls TT score!  WAHAHAHAHA. 

 
If they gave you trophies for watching the shittiest shows on television, would you watch the entire series for trophies?
Are you implying MLB 14 is a shitty game? Because it's not. The most of the trophies are gotten in a silly way, but the rest of the game is fun, especially RTTS.
 
No, not saying it's shitty at all. But it sounds like the trophies are super boring to get.
I didn't really think so. I loved being the overpowered super team destroying the Yankees single-A team. Some peeps may find it boring, but I enjoyed doing it. And a decent amount of them you can get in RTTS mode.
 
Some chicks will put anything in their mouth.
I need to meet more of these chicks

Did anyone mention that they pretty much confirmed a new God of War is in development yesterday? Don't remember it if so.
