2014 VIDEO GAME CATCH-ALL THREAD


RIPPA

Recommended Posts

So I picked up Payday 2 when it was on sale on Steam and started playing with some friends, I have to say I'm really enjoying the game.  It's fun to play with a bunch of people on skype and actually plan out the heists and then pray it all goes well.  We were so stoked when we pulled a perfect stealth run on a hard Go Bank heist.

 

I also found a great solo stealth mission for grinding cash/XP to, I was pretty much able to jump from level 1 to level 25 in a night to catch up with my friends.

 

This makes me sad. I love crime fiction, and love a good heist story (the Parker books by Richard Stark are some of my faves and Heat is my favourite film of all time) so this game seemed tailor made for me. Alas I had no friends to play it with online on PS3 and the solo campaign AI was shocking so I traded it in

New update to PS4 firmware coming that will enable Youtube integration and Share Play.  If you're both PS+ members, you can do local co-op on games with an online friend - even in games with no online option.

Is this another update after 2.0? If so any talk if it fixes the rest mode issue?

Slightly off topic but how does one install arcadeox for chrome? I've tried retrouprising but can't get it working on chrome.

Sadly it doesn't work on Chrome. So it's the only thing I use Firefox for.

This Frozen Synspse Prime game on PS+ seems pretty cool so far. Maybe a little more tactically hardcore than I'll be able to manage at later levels, but it oozes style and when you get a plan to work, you feel like a genius!

I am afraid to turn on my PS4 until they fix the 2.0 rest mode thing.  Poor PS4.  It better be fixed before AC comes out next week.

At least IGN has extensive coverage on their site for the problem.

 

And by extensive, I mean "not a single word".

I played a little this morning, not knowing anything about the game except that it was free. I like the idea of a twin-stick shooter merged with Zelda, but the art style and the vibe aren't really for me. I also hate the idea of a twin-stick game with no 45-degree fire (you can curve your shots with momentum, but that is far from the same).  Still, it's not locking up my PS4, which puts it one up on Frozen Synapse (which crashes my PS3 every single time at the 'set your screen size' screen.)

So it's basically Robotron or Super Smash TV but with terrible graphics?  I love both of those games so will give it a shot but the aesthetic for the game is just awful

Best Buy has a deal going on right now where you get 2 years free ("$120 value") of Gamers Club Unlocked with the purchase and activation of any phone.  It also works with the purchase of SIM cards for Net 10, which are as low as $6.99 each.  There's a phone you can price match against Radio Shack to get price down to $5.  

 

So you can get 2 years of GCU - which gets you 20% of all new games - for $5-7.
