Re: Whatcha Been Watching?

Yeah there's a 4th series coming some time in May. It's only on Netflix and all the episodes will be released the same day, a la House of Cards.

Re: SimCity 2013 and all the Sim City games

I heard SC4 has issues on multi-core machines making play somewhat difficult in the 'mid-game' I re-bought SC4 Deluxe Edition on Steam recently and have been playing the hell out of it ever since, haven't had a crash yet. I have heard there is a bug, but there are fixes out there to force it to run...

Re: Whatcha Been Watching?

Been working my way through Arrested Development again in anticipation for the imminent 4th series on Netflix. I've watched it all the way through several times before, but I'm still noticing little jokes and references that I managed to miss the other times. Genuinely one of the funniest sitcoms, a...

Re: Game Suggestions for the Podcast

I know it may have been suggested before, but I would love to hear a Witcher 2 show. Having just completed it, it would make for some great discussion, particularly the huge branching path which completely changes how the game plays out in chapter 2. I do appreciate it's not the shortest game, but ...

Re: Mass Effect 3 - Operation: Lodestar

It's not quite as fun but it's the best non-Gears horde mode I've played. Its doesn't have the same variation of enemies or crazy weapons like the mortar, but the different classes and powers make up for that.

Re: Mass Effect 3 - Operation: Lodestar

It's very different to Battlefield in that it's more of a horde mode, but it is super fun and the combat feels really solid. If you were ever going to check it out I'd recommend doing so while this event is on as the player pool will be really big.

Mass Effect 3 - Operation: Lodestar

The last ever Mass Effect 3 multiplayer event is currently running and ends on Sunday 10th. I intend to play a fair bit of this over the weekend, is anyone else interested? Mission brief from the Mass Effect 3 blog: N7 unit actions will pave the way for resistance and conventional forces trying to r...

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?

Tomb Raider turned up a day early (thank you ShopTo), played an hour or so and I'm impressed with it so far. If you're planning on getting it, be warned though - here be quick time events. Lots of quick time events.

Re: Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch

Ps. Just remembered, those xp quotes might not be accurate for everyone. I bought the swift solutions reward that gives you more xp for battles as soon as I could afford it so I'm not sure what the base xp is.

Re: Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch

Ni No Kuni farming tips below: There is a great spot to farm when you get the ship and the world map opens up. To the north of the Summerlands is a series of islands, the small one in the south east of the group (Ugly Duckling Isle) is the only place where the incredibly rare and almost impossible t...

Re: Dust 514 contacts list

Well I think I've got Tomb Raider arriving today so I think I'll be quite distracted this week too! I'll try and get some Dust in this weekend though.

Re: Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch

Picked up the Wizard's Edition at launch, put in just under 60 hours and finished the main story and a chunk of the post game quests. Still nowhere near completed though. If anyone is having difficulties I know of a couple of farming spots where a super rare mob spawns and gives more XP than most bo...

I've been dabbling with Dust for a while, not so much fun going at it lone wolf so I'd love to team up with some people.

Re: Game Suggestions for the Podcast

Apologies if you've already done this and I managed to miss it, but one of my favourite game series from the PS1/PS2 era was the Legacy of Kain series. Played all 5 games at least twice apiece and got totally sucked into that deep (but confusing) lore. Would love to hear you guys discuss some or all...

Re: Games completed 2013

02/03/2013 - Ni No Kuni (apart from a couple of side missions and some challenges)

Probably the best JRPG I've played in about 5 years, and my current GOTY. Although bearing in mind the only other 2013 game I've played is Crysis 3 that's not much of an accomplishment!

Re: The "Introduce yourself" thread

Been a listener to the podcast for quite a while now, and joined the forum quite a bit ago too but haven't posted, so I better introduce myself. My name is Mark, I'm on Xbox, PS3, Steam (those games my pc can handle), and 3DS. My gamertag is Damocles693 on Xbox, Steam, and PS3, no idea what my handl...
