    ►►Re: Advice on a gaming controller◄◄

    Wired 360 controller is the easiest controller to hook up for your PC, and I'm sure logitech controllers work. I haven't gone into 3rd party controllers though.

    If you're looking to play action games like DMC, use your 360 controller. If you're going for side scrollers, get any controller that has the d-pad and button layout aligned, like the Dualshock for example. The only thing is that I don't know how those controllers are configured, unlike the 360.

    Been playing Shadow Warrior, I'm surprised that it's already 75% off after being released for a couple of months.

    The melee system is so satisfying, and exploding rabbits are amusing.

    We can all agree that this generation of consoles is just shit. But if I had to choose between PS4 or fucking spy camera Xbone-one then I would choose the PS4.
    The Kinect is no longer always on. So it won't spy on us any longer. :P

    ►►Re: Your Favorite Console of All Time◄◄

    The console I enjoyed the most: Gamecube. This is perhaps one of the most underrated console of any generation. The games were amazing, and has put good use to GBA titles. From Eternal Darkness to Metroid Prime, and even then the console was undersold. I also liked the N64 a lot too, (although the controller was like WTF) it revolutionized 3d gaming for consoles (making the analog stick mainstream), and made some of the best 2d to 3d transitioning of nintendo's earlier titles. Mario felt like Mario, Zelda felt like it was made for 3d to begin with, and then gamecube Metroid Prime surprisingly felt like a Metroid game.

    The console I appreciated the most: The NES, no questions asked. No matter how much you alienate from Nintendo products, this very console made what the console, and even the gaming industry thrived. After Atari screwing up the console industry due to fear of 3rd party and rushing their big boy games, the gaming industry was at a questionable state. Plus, the games were awesome, with Mario, Zelda, Mega Man, Contra, etc...The SNES was also amazing, and worthy of being the successor to the NES. Most gamepads follow the SNES controller layout. The Dualshock was heavily inspired by it, the Dreamcast decided to go with 4 diamond buttons as well, the SNES controller defines it basically.

    These two are my favorite in different ways, while I love the other consoles as well. I've always trusted Nintendo as a gaming company. I truly do miss Sega being a hardware company, and I respected Sony during the 32-64 bit era (5th gen).

    Also, do you realize how much money it costs to provide a service like PSN or XBL?
    I said they fail at doing so, like Dead Rising 3 cant go beyond 30 frames, and Ryse being 900p, when advertised at being 1080p with 60hz.

    Microsoft's shitty policies show me a reason why I don't give a shit to get the xbone.

    That's fine, except I don't support paying monthly for a console. Steam isn't monthly, and the Wii U isn't. So I'll focus on these two.

    The Wii U goes up to the Wii, which has some amazing games, like Xenoblade Chronicles and Mario Galaxy. Though they're working on HD remastering from Gamecube.

    I could understand the idea of not having backwards compatibility, but if there is absolutely no launch line-up, then I don't see a reason to get that console until the goods come out. If I upgrade my PC, I still get to play old games from Shadow Warrior with Dosbox, to older windows games like Unreal Tournament 04.

    It's cool and all, but as a PC gamer, both consoles don't interest me. More angering due to xbox one's earlier shitty policies and the 500$ starting price, and PSplus having a monthly subscription like Xbox Live gold.

    I am primarily a PC gamer, and if a console gets enough of my interest, i'll get it. Unfortunately, the PS4 and Xbone are trying to hard to be PCs and are too conservative with their products, no innovation.

    Just saying "Dude", some people can't afford PC's capable of comfortably running games. They're not fanboys, they're gamers like anyone else. Judging from your name though you probably aren't old enough to need to buy your own things yet.

    Reality's comin' in about 5 years for you though, so enjoy your childhood while you can.
    I'm not calling you a fanboy at all. But I'm saying that consoles are sourced by fanboyism. The reason why there's still a console industry to this day are because of exclusives. If there were no exclusives, consoles would be obsolete. Who goes for the consoles for the exclusives primarily? Usually fanboys. The fanbase determines the console if you think about it.

    I'll step out of this thread, I shouldn't have wrote that comment to be honest.

    If Next-gen is trying to be like PCs, why should I get a PS4 and Xbone? There is like little to no games for the PS4, and I am not paying 500$ for a console.

    I've been more Deistic than anything. Used to be a Christian, but I am more deistic, because I do want to believe that there is something more than what meet's the eye. As for modern philosophy, I definitely like buddhism, though I can't consider myself buddhist completely.

    I will, however, say that it doesn't matter what you do or don't believe in, I don't see anyone more enlightened than the other (including Atheists). I've always seen "Away from Religion is knowledge" as complete bullshit, because I've heard some pretty ridiculous comments from Atheists. If I really want to be underestimated by you, get to an innovator like Tesla's level, and I'll take you seriously.

    I have faith, but I don't see it necessary. For me, it's Real Life > Faith.

    I will agree Storyline is meh, and I'm not to attached to it. The only Elder Scrolls game I've played is Skyrim, so I don't know/care enough about the "Tamriel" world to get angry at any lore-breaking mistakes they're making.

    As an EverQuest veteran with over 2 years play time logged (and having subsequently tried multiple "F2P" MMO's), I have to say I don't mind and actually prefer the subscription model. Most F2P games, even if by some miracle they aren't P2W, will do a great job of rubbing the cash shop in your face throughout the whole game, just enough to make it annoying. So far as the dollar per entertainment hours ratio goes, subscription MMO's are the most efficient entertainment medium in existence. Bottom line, I've never gotten as attached to nor played as long on any F2P MMO as I did EQ.

    I can't blame you for looking forward to EverQuest Next, though. That game is also looking to be great, although I'm seeing it through EQ fanboy's eyes, so my opinion is probably skewed on that matter.
    It is a different-style combat, but I don't really find it any better than the traditional hotkey gameplay. I don't blame you though, the combat in MMOs have always been iffy. But I've never been a fan of Elder Scroll's combat, although I loved the storyline.

    I understand. But as someone who has played Morrowind, Oblivion, and Skyrim, there are plotholes, especially how anyone can be emperor. I can't wait to see xxLegolas101xx Septim. I pretty much played elder scrolls for the mods and storyline.

    I've personally gotten used to cash shops, but as long as I can play the game and enjoy without any restrictions (like TERA for example), I'm gold. I don't even prefer the complete free to play route either, though it is good for MMOs to attract more and more people to come in, and DCUO's F2P transition has heavily got SOE's attention. But the true model I prefer is the Guild Wars 2/The Secret World model, where you pay for the game and don't require a subscription. I have subscribed to WoW before, and for me, WoW will be the first and only game i'm subscribing to. If I really didn't care about it that much, I'd probably be playing eve to this day.

    As someone who has siblings that played Everquest, I don't really see it as an Everquest game, though I am extremely excited. One of my brother's don't have time for MMOs, while the other one is actually anticipated for it. I'm looking for enjoyable, dedicative MMOs that doesn't get in the way with the business model.

    The Storyline, I personally do not like how we're going back in time, and yet we see a faction composing of nords, DUNMER AND ARGONIANS.

    And the Subscription model doesn't really work well in the west. If you think about it, WoW and Everquest were the only MMORPGs that thrived with the model for their times.


    As for my MMO of choice, I'm looking forward to Everquest Next. I am interested in Warhammer 40k: Eternal Crusade, saw behaviour's recent interview, looks like they're not making a shovelware this time. And if World of Darkness has a reasonable business model, I will definitely get my hands on that game.

    This thread delivers.

    Of course people are going to talk shit in a chat game. Which is why this game requires thick skin when it comes to these situations. ESRB welcomes strong language, but at a limit...but this goes for campaigns, not community. You're right about people don't have to read people's "pottymouth" if they don't have to, which is why you'd either deal with it, or make a fool out of yourself over words. Xbox live is a prime example, because the community is known for kids screaming in their mics. The one feature that Xbox Live and Mafia has that you can use, is -mute (which may change the game, but still). If you can't deal with the strong language people put out, you can just walk away. Just remember, this is the real world. You either grow thick skin, or don't.

    Anything that involves community, should involve Blizzard. Mafia doesn't welcome cheaters or gamethrowers. Trolling exists so it really doesn't matter. In fact, I have seen trolling strategy, like this one time, a Veteran baited half the town by caps lock, calling everyone "Niggers", and ctrl + v'd shitty song lyrics. Trolling isn't going away, plain and simple...Of course it sucks, but it isn't game-breaking, depends on the situation.

    Capcom used to be good back in the day, but now they don't know what the hell DLCs are supposed to be.

    Resident Evil is no longer Resident Evil. It got from horror to action. I mean, I'd rather play left 4 dead 2 or dead rising 2 if this were a case, and dead rising 3 was a huge disappointment for me in E3. They need to work on the PC port for Resident Evil...never had so much pain with the FoV in a third person game. Even L4D2 has FoV issues. Also, don't remind me of Gears of Wars, as I desperately hate epic games (although Unreal Tournament is my favorite franchise of all time)

    Yeah, Square-Enix can suck a dick. EA was the worst of the game industry this generation, but Square-Enix will be the EA of next-gen. At least EA is trying to not be the "worst company in america". Square-Enix are now a bunch of babies this generation. FF is being a cash-in, they're butthurt over sales that don't meet CoD standards, and they're trying to make mobile gaming an actual platform, which is a huge gimmick. You should've seen my face when Deus Ex: The Fall was announced as a mobile game.

    Pretty much. Especially that valve is pushing PC gaming to be compatible with controllers with the promotion of big picture and whatnot.

    The 6th generation ended my console journey. I enjoyed games on PC more, and consoles were last good at that time. If I were to get a PS4/Xbone, I'd only get it for Kingdom Hearts 3 and that is pretty much it.

    PC is just so much better for core gaming. More access, more comfort for concentration, easier sales, better deals, etc...I prefer to use the console with the big tv for party games, which is why I consider getting a Wii U. Playing with Friends and Family and nerding a night out on Smash Bros or something.

    Not referring to consoles, but how each major company sees this. Valve owns Steam. As of right now, Steam is a big thing for PC gamers. My point is that this is is how four major companies on these platforms (Wii, Xbox, Playstation, and PC) are seeing everything differently. Major ones being Microsoft and Sony, as one is being douchey, and one is taking advantage of the situation. Nintendo and Valve, both are trying to make a solution.

    As long as Steam exists, I can still consider it the PSN of PC, which makes me wonder why they can't be involved.

    Exactly. Even if they admitted to their faults back in 2006, like overpriced PS3, you could tell what kind of business model they want. It is obviously for the money. Before, they were going on what looks best on paper, which is guaranteed to fail. Here, they want to look as consumer friendly as possible. The only reason why PS4 is a huge success is because Microsoft is tired of having customers. Nintendo and Valve combined gets it to be honest. Quality over quantity.

    i sure hope gamestop goes out of business. seriously fuck them. they did the same thing blockbuster did in the 90s putting local stores out of business so they could dominate the market. and just like blockbuster, the paradigm has shifted and they are gonna be left in the dust.

    but what makes them even worse is they are gypsies. they seriously contribute nothing to the gaming world. they dont fund, develop or publish anything, they just give you a fraction of the value for your games and turn around and sell them back. they are a leech on the industry. they sell used systems that always break within a month of buying them, and dont even use proper quality control. at least blockbuster provided a unique service.

    Yeah. The only thing innovative consoles can bring is benchmarking, which can push for much more powerful GPUs and CPUs...except for this gen with CPUs. The sad thing is, the Wii U has best CPU out of the 3 consoles. PS4 is using 8 core AMD jaguar, which is mobile CPU. And Xbone's CPU is pretty equivalent to the PS4's CPU. I personally hate core gaming on consoles. Especially that most of the core games mainly consist of FPS on controllers, which is utter shit compared to mouse and keyboard. I will be sticking with consoles when it comes to party games, but everything else is nay. The Wii U is very damn similar to the dreamcast, which is what I am most worried about.



    As Apocist said below, Gamestop is nothing more than a pawnshop. I would take advantage of Gamestop, but I don't really buy disc games anymore. I have sold things from my Xbox 360 after it got red-ringed, such as the wifi, the hard-drive, and 2 copies. Selling things used is pretty much their "Specialty" sadly.

    I liked Iwata Satoru's response on used games though. But here is this whole situation in a nutshell...

    Microsoft) Support devs by making games restrictive with gamers and retailers.
    Sony) Let's do what our customers want, no DRM, and disc-based games.
    Nintendo) Make games that people won't bound to sell.
    Valve) Offer better than pirates, keep supporting devs, and make gamers tempt to buy games with impressive sales.

    It is obvious to see where Microsoft is going, but gamers and even indie developers are not very happy with Microsoft. You should see what Phil Fish, the developer of Fez thinks about Xbone. Sony is blatantly taking advantage of the whole situation, pretty damn obvious. Nintendo is more passionate about their games rather than doing something about the whole issue. Valve is doing it all-round a better choice when it comes to touching gamer's hearts, and supporting developers.

    Meanwhile at Gamestop, used games is the priority of the industry, it is doing nothing useful but taking advantage of disc-based copies. Digital copies are the innovation of manufacturing sales. Gamers don't have to waste time, it is easier to access deals, and developers will still get money even years after the release of an old game. It is also true that their quality is shit.

    It does add up. I still don't trust Microsoft to begin with. The fact that they had intentions to put the console on DRM also shows that they have intentions for a darker future.


    As for restrictive sales, I do love the idea of digital downloads nowadays. Especially if you have an old game like Unreal tonurament, each time you get a deal you'd still get money. Retailers like Gamestop would go as far as selling used games, and give store-credits to you. After having my xbox overheating not too long ago, got myself a 50$ steam wallet. It puts players and certain companies at an advantage, but the publishers/developers don't get anything in return, which sucks. I still have a problem with the idea of paying full price for AAA titles digitally, due to the fact that the portion of the CD price goes to shipping and handling.

    And to the console wars, I'll probably get the console with the most party games. I've enjoyed playing consoles with friends and family, and the Wii U is already in the lead for me. The thing is, I don't like core-gaming on consoles. The only game I've enjoyed while core-gaming on consoles was Bayonetta, but that was pretty much it. I core game on PC, and party game with friends and family on consoles. Smash Bros is an excellent example as a party game. I just don't really care about consoles that much anymore.

    They removed DRM from Xbox One, and will no longer restrict used games.

    Still isn't considerable, because:

    A) I don't want always-on kinect
    B) I don't want to be having to pay an extra 100$ for a console with worse specs due to a shitty camera
    C) I don't like Core gaming on consoles.

    Heh, just saying what the internet always says.

    Honestly, the Wii U doesn't look that bad, has the best CPU in this generation. PS4/X1 use AMD Jaguar, which is a mobile cpu, which is shit...where 4 cores would even power.

    Wii U needs more games. Backwards compatibility, no drm, can trade used games and whatnot, I think it is more user friendly. PS4 will probably be the best console overall. Xboned is shit.

    I am seeing a rise of JRPG in the market, which is what I want to see for consoles. We need more platformers, and then I'll be core gaming with consoles again along-side with PC gaming.

    From what I've heard, yes...for 5$ a month.

    I have a feeling that Dust 514 is coming to PC. The reason why they made it playstation exclusive was because of Planetside 2. Now that that game is coming to PS4, and Destiny is underway, I really don't see why they won't bring it to PC. Especially with the promotion of XIM support to play it on mouse and keyboard.

    Bit worried about ME2, they didn't show much parkour and really focused on the hand-to-hand fighting. Maybe it'll be good, but I'm worried about most of the EA games. Reserving my judgement on DAIII until gameplay.

    Titanfall looks neat.

    For the most part, though, all the good games are multiplat so I'm not gonna buy either console. If there's a price drop, I MIGHT buy the PS4, but you still need a 60 dollar per year subscription to play online so it's iffy
    Yeah, I am still kinda bleh with EA, but I think they may do better. Remember, it used to be that Activision was the bad company and that EA was the good company. But the shittiest time with EA was with Riccitiello.

    BF4 True, but the destruction just looks pretty amazing, though it is unneeded.

    I hope ME2 will be good as well, hope they do a good job on it. I never played DA, but I heard DA2 was shit.

    Indeed, running on walls look interesting.

    And so true. I may buy the PS4 in the future, but not near...Distant, probably very. I really love the idea of Destiny, it's a shame that they've not announced a PC version. FPS sucks on controllers, but ah well.

    Troll of the Year goes to: Sony.




    As for consoles, I personally don't care for them anymore. The generation of consoles have been long gone for me ever since companies focused on making FPS on gamepads. But I envy Sony's strategy, so much win. Anywho, back on E3...EA is beginning to get my trust again. They've been quite twitchy ever since they've been called "Worst Company of America". But let's be serious...BF4 looks badass, Mirror's Edge 2, and STAR WARS BATTLEFRONT WOOOOOOO.

    I've been most interested with BF4, ME2, Battlefront, and Titanfall (Which is also coming to PC). I would be interested on Destiny, if it was coming on PC.

    This computer is worth 700$, but got it for 350$ on a deal over there. Worth the check.

As high fantasy roles such as Werewolves are added to the game it will make it seem more fantasy anyways. I want to allow fun and goofy characters and houses and maps to be in the game. Being 100% true to any theme will limit these kinds of things.
    That's very good to hear. Very agreeable actually. SC2mafia is supposed to be mafia themed, but with SC2 style models. The mafia have tommy guns, so there's your giveaway.

    Dunno if you're using the point system like SC2mafia (Haven't checked much of it actually), but for Donors and people who have spent enough time with the game, you should be able to pick and be open to different models. Just like people have character limits/color limits in SC2mafia.
