  1. I too picked up The Evil Within at Best Buy and the $10 card will be used towards Bayonetta 2 next week.
  2. No, which will be a shame. Although I somewhat suspect that Evolution Studios wouldn't do well with DriveClub (after having played MotorStorm Apocalypse, I just didn't see it). I really want them to do a PS4 Wipeout game though.
  3. Judging by the reaction from people having played the beta, The Crew is terrible. I've seen streams of it and....it looks interesting. Surprised that Ubisoft didn't make it a Driver game though.
  4. He has glimpses of breaking out like Austin did, but Ambrose just doesn't have a great single match to cull that out (although his lumberjack match with Seth Rollins did a lot to help him). Last night's 'hot dog cart' spot is almost Austin-esque, but that's just it. I think Ambrose would be a logical choice to feud with The Miz but the Miz is where wrestlers go to die. It would make great "You left Cleveland like LeBron / I had to give kids like you money growing up" promos that The Miz just can't do either. So I guess feuding with Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, Bray Wyatt and Cesaro is in Ambrose's future? In other words, unless things change, Ambrose will be a mid-carder. He needs an "Austin/Hart WrestleMania-like" match where he's lying in a pool of blood refusing to tap out. If CM Punk would come back, that would be the perfect guy to do that match.
  5. My problem with the Rock segment is this: After feuding with John Cena, interrupting/feuding with Rusev is a step down for him. It's also a step up for Rusev but it makes him look bad since the Rock can't/won't take actual wrestling moves anymore. The perfect resolution to the segment would have been Rusev attacking the Rock immediately after he began his spiel at the end, but we know that won't happen.
  6. Naughty Dog is pretty good about announcing a game/setting a release date relatively quickly. I know with The Last Of Us there was a delay, so you are probably right. Recently, they were tweets from people involved showing actors in mocap suits for UC4. So I think it's still on track for a 2015 release date. EDIT: It's also rumored that God of War IV is coming from Santa Monica Studios. I wouldn't be surprised to see the announcement trailer in December at VGX.
  7. What's a Dark Souls boss battle doing in my Assassin's Asylum in Middle Earth?
  8. Really? Ridiculous premises for Dr Who has been the norm since the show begin, so I was willing to overlook how ridiculous what was tagged in spoilers. It's simple compared to most of the 11th Doctor's run.
  9. Tonight's episode is probably the best Dr Who episode in a LONG time.
  10. Some caveats about IGN's review: 1) The reviewer admits to playing the game on Hard Mode. Then it complains about the game not being very good (well, reviewer play it on Easy Mode like all the other game reviewers). 2) The reviewer is also the same person that really enjoyed Titanfall for their preview saying stuff like "it's too much for my eyeballs." He also seems to be trying to please Microsoft (for a job there maybe?) 3) It's IGN. They slap scores on games after playing it for maybe 30 minutes to an hour tops. What I've been doing is using the "Live From PlayStation" feature to watch streams of this and DriveClub. Based on what I've seen of both: Wait on getting those games.
  11. I didn't either....until I Platinum'ed Sly Cooper & Thievenus Raccoonnus from the Sly Collection. Then it was downhill from there and now I have 27 Platinums. It's basically OCD planning/collecting about everything.
  12. Ugh, that's terrible to hear Tabe. Which trophy was it? Do you have multiple saves?
  13. Dear studio formerly known as Criterion Games, What the fuck were you thinking when you designed Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit? Every car handles like shit, when you drift the car just loves to spin around and not actually fuckin' drift, and the fuckin' AI either stop dead in their tracks for fear of "OMG you might hit me" or rubberband even if you get in 6th place. And review sites gave this 8.0 out of 10, or 4 out of 5 or such shit like that? Did they just play the game for 30 minutes before handing out the review score?
  14. The thought has crossed my mind, but I'm going to wait. The problem with online focused/online only games is that the community for it is likely to die very quickly. So nuts like me that care about chasing Platinums end up speeding through the game.
  15. I think Sebastian Roche would be PERFECT as the Doctor. He would appear to be 'young' (even though he's in his 50's) while conveying a world weariness too. His catchphrase would have to be "Don't Care!"
  16. Yes, it is also cross-buy (so if you got the PS3 version, you'll get PS4 version for free).
  17. Oh Jesus Christ, this Whovian Divergent Maze Runner Percy Jackson Giver Harry Potter tween shit can kiss my ass. I don't give a fuck if they are the new demographic hotness. :Let them acquire the taste the same way we did. This easily digestible portion approach to sci-fi makes me angry. The problem is, it can work, but I don't really want them to do it either. Having teen angst would be a crap idea for Dr Who. Someone in Hollywood is probably floating the idea of J.J. Abrams-ing Dr Who. I think Dr Who though needs a 'giant reboot' and get back to square one as far as what the show is about (and I don't mean Clara/11th Doctor romance subplots). Maybe have it be about the adventures of the First Doctor (in other words, he had other adventures before he went to Coal Hill with Susan Foreman). You see every other Doctor that came after (before?) him in him and you would get a glimpse of what the first Doctor would later become.
  18. Trying to go for a Platinum in Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit and I want to smash the game with a hammer. The handling of the cars suck, the other cars in the game and their AI really sucks, and there's a lot of rubberbanding AI in the races.
  19. I actually liked this episode -- I'll never be warmed up to Clara with Danny, but this will have to do. It felt a bit like Smith & Jones but with Groundskeeper Willie as a Time Lord.
  20. I can confirm this to be true. When I did Flawless Striker trophy, the first few tries I had people I did the Devils' Lair strike with dying on me and at the end no trophy. Then I did the run without anyone dying and *ding* trophy. So I guess the thing to hope for is for Bungie to raise the level cap by introducing more gear that goes above lvl30. Then whenever anyone does the Vault of Glass, they can cakewalk through it.
  21. Freakin' FINALLY. This may make the grind towards a Platinum more tolerable. Although completing a raid without any dying will be impossible. Crap, every time I think I am out, something pulls me back in...
  22. Yeah, I didn't really need reviews to confirm my Shadow of Mordor purchase next Tuesday along with Persona 4 Ultimax & Pier Solar HD.
  23. I'm there on Shadow of Mordor, The Evil Within, Bayonetta 2, and surprisingly Dragon Age Inquisition. I'm also there on AC Unity & Far Cry 4 but that will be around Black Friday. EDIT: And against my better judgment, DriveClub but after I hear from other players/read reviews.
  24. That's a legit gripe. I hate the present-day stuff as well. I can't even fathom why it's still included. There can't be more than 5 people on the entire planet that think that stuff adds to the games. *raises hand* I liked how similar Assassin's Creed Brotherhood modern day section is to the main game.
  25. For the first time in my life, I traded in a game to Gamestop and it is Destiny. It may have been against my better judgment to do so, but it's for the best. I'll pick it back up later whenever Activision/Bungie get done counting the money and realize that 'oh shit, we have a HUGE problem right now.' I'll just keep an eye on this thread but not comment anymore on it -- I think I have long since beat that drum about my dissatisfaction. Those who enjoy it, hey have fun.
