[CanadianHockey]

this thread has got me wanting to ditch work and go home and play computer games. would actually rather do that then go to my birthday party tonight hahaha.

edit: anyone good enough with photoshop to make Kimi's hat in my avatar have the "O" logo? that would be nice

It's small, but it's there

If you're into RTS and haven't played Supreme Commander, you should. The first one and its expansion, not the second because that one sucks.

I'm slowly working my way through Divinity: Original Sin...
They're still actively tweaking balance through patches which is a bit odd for a single player game but thankfully still on my first playthrough and not really min/maxing yet to be worried about it.

Great old school RPG though.

I'm enjoying it as well, really feels like a newer version of classic Bioware games like Baulder's gate. I hope they keep making games like this.

Now if square could just release an oldschool jrpg in the style of ff6 or 7 with updated graphics, voice overs and keep the old school battle system, i'd be a happy guy.

Tales of is the only JRPG franchise I'd say is worth the time today

It's cookie-cutter anime stuff but the battle system is outstanding (although it's real-time, not turn-based) and would very, very highly recommend Tales of Vesperia on the Xbobx 360 and Tales of Graces of the PS3 to any JRPG enthusiast (Vesperia is one of the best JRPGs of all time). They've released Tales of Xillia 1 and 2 on PS3 in North America but I haven't gotten to play them, I'm sure they are fine games as well.

On gaming I recently finished Watch Dogs on PS4 and had a blast, it's a great open-world game. I found it much, much more engaging than GTA V which is probably a better game but I think the GTA formula just doesn't do it for me anymore, I've been playing GTA since the first one, been there done that.

 

[FolignoQuantumLeap]

Watchdogs is an awful game in my opinion. Easily one of the most disappointing games ever conceived. It's just a cookie cutter of other Ubisoft games but done in a more boring environment. I would highly recommend not spending anything more than $10 on that thing.

Don't compare it to GTA V. That is really insulting to one of the best games ever created. Watchdogs has no atmosphere whatsoever. It's like the anti GTA.

On PC, I've tried a bit of Agarest: Generations of War, and The Last Federation... both are console ports though I believe - but generally when I've had time to dip into them they've captured most of the the FF7/FF10 type feel to them.

I don't know what it is about Chrono Trigger and Final Fantasy (6 I guess? I'm still stuck eternally calling it 3) that make them just seem like the ultimate JRPGs to me. Nothing comes close and the story as you play through it just feels epic.

Y'all need to try Xenogears. It is one of THE best jrpgs out there.

Xenoblade Chronicles is coming to 3DS. Looking forward to that. It's so hard to find a retail version of that for the Wii now.

Fired.

Don't they normally fire the coach first?

I was working at Ubisoft when they were developing it. I never could get on the WD team though, so that's probably why it isn't that good.

Time stamped 3:00am. Yep. I've had this happen to me way too many times, just the 96 or 97 instead.

Way too much people in the way to just catch a glimpse. Did see the guys busted up face. He left the bus by smashing the emergency button and ramming through the doors. Cops held the bus back for almost an hour between Via Rail and St-Laurent.

 

[Beville]

So I get to spend next week playing hockey for the RAF whilst still getting paid etc...

I then get to do it for another week in Germany.

The 95 at 2:00am on a Saturday is prison rules.

Wellp Jennifer Lawrence naked pics everywhere

Actually it's a ********..of people..

 

[Super Cake]

Wellp Jennifer Lawrence naked pics everywhere

I just saw them. Apparently nude pics of Dunst and Upton got released as well.

Feel bad for them, but they should know better. After the Scarlett Johansson incident, you would think these celebs would think twice about saving nude pics on any computer or phone.

 

[18Hossa]

Well then brb
