  1. Decided to go shopping. Little did he know...
  2. Happy Birthday Church! To another 30 years! :P

  3. Might remember me from the last play date. VinWarrior
  4. ANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNGRY JOOOOOE! I expected him here, anyways, I agree completely, this is unfair and flat out stupid. Google messed it up first with Google+ forced integration and new comments system, this is strike two, strike three, you're out Google.
  5. Sorry this took so long, heh, never got around to it. Today, I'm doing a review on a very popular title under the name of "Bioshock Infinite" following the story of Booker DeWitt, who needs to repay a gambling debt by traveling to Columbia, a zealous city in the sky, with dark secrets. So, does it's story accomplish what it sets out to do, which is similar to the original, teaching about Human revolution through Religion. The short answer is yes, very much so. Story- Bioshock Infinite's large expansive story takes place in the floating city of Columbia, as you -Booker DeWitt- attempt to get a young girl named Elizabeth out of the city, soon, the city begins to tumble to pieces as this New Eden falls from grace from Revolution. Infinite executes this perfectly, not a single doubt about that, the atmosphere begins as this beautiful heaven of a world, that you just die to explore, it descends into the original's dark and horrifying view, as you are locked in the two way war with Elizabeth. The end is executed with precision never before seen, and so many ties and tricks it is a subject of controversy, an ending done right. It has replay value unusual for a game this linear, as you feel inclined to go back to the action and story again. You even evolve to feel like Elizabeth's protector through the story, and feel an attachment to Elizabeth. She is hands down one of the best executed female characters ever. Booker is also interesting, as you feel pain when he feels it, and you relate to such a differentiating character. Troy Baker did an amazing job doing Booker as well. Mechanics/Gameplay- Bioshock takes some odd leaps in innovation when it comes to combat. You use vigors and salts, essentially the same as plasmids and eve from Bioshock one. Each does feel different from the last, and very useful in combat, though, you can see some are unbalanced. Weapons are unique, but you'll feel like using mainly two for the whole of the game. The skyhook is without a doubt the major innovation here. When you ride the skylines, it feels invigorating and exciting, as you slow and speed yourself up, even doing special executions with the skyhook. But, it feels like they cut this mechanic short for little reason, as, it appears rarely in the game. But when it does, it is some of the best this game has to offer. Graphics- Infinite pushes the limited of the near out-dated PS3 and Xbox 360, making beautiful scenery and characters. The animations on character's faces feel real. It's obvious a lot of time was spent on this department, as it is executed with near perfect accuracy, almost on par with a good PC. Final Verdict- My final verdict was an easy one to bring upon, as I enjoyed this game so much and I know you will too!
  6. I can't wait to host with you people and to play with the wonderful Maestro-man and Weasel-boy. I'd like to say Happy Holidays as well to all out there, and have a safe holiday. NOW UNTO THE PLAYDATE DETAILS. I should be in the game the whole time with Weasel and Maestro, as we are the holy trinity of hosts. GTA will go first, followed by Reach, then Wars. If you don't have one, don't fret, you can join in the next.
  7. Love ya spark, enjoy your month or so in pink, you've earned it very much!
  8. Absolute Dog... Friend... Father-figure... When I was in a bad place, the vision of being someone like you brought me out. A kind, and amazing human being. I want to thank you for that. Wherever you go in the future, whatever life holds for you, I wish you the best of luck. Goodbye sir. Go out with a bang. -Edward

  11. Nice find Dumb, it's a possibility these were cut though, a lot was, these could have been unlocks or features never used, still, it does open up the question of old stuff being added in, again, good find, Nah, I like the BR one too.
  12. ^ The box art for Xbox One ^ Recently, it was announced at VGX that a modified version of Tomb Raider 'built specifically for Next Gen consoles' would be releasing on PS4 and Xbox One.

  15. Today at VGX, a new episodic game was announced, being produced mainly by Telltale games and Gearbox under the name, 'Tales from the Borderlands'! This will be a seperate story about Vault Hunter 'wanna-bees' and will focus on character development and story, rather then the usual borderlands weapon looting and shooting we've come to know. Not much info was released on it, and, from what we can see, we got the teaser of all teasers here. See for yourselves! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h7veS7WRXEY
  16. Congrats on your return to the News Group Dog, I can't wait to see your articles.

  19. Destiny will be available on X360, PS3, Xbox One, and PS4 Thanks for the info, Broseph.
  20. In the new News Bulletin from the lovely Halo Waypoint team, we have been shown some pretty exciting stuff. Let's take it from the top with 343i Day, or December 9th if you fancy that. You can unlock the rare Commando Armor by playing a single War Games or SP Ops Matchmaking. Pretty cool deal eh? The resistor mod will also be fully available on the Ninth. As well, a new War Games Playlist will be available under the name of 343 Day Slayer, featuring the Speed Slayer game! Speed Slayer • 6 vs. 6 Team Slayer • Score to win: 800 • 130% player speed • Preset Loadouts, each equipped with Resistor and Mobility • Initial Ordnance enabled, Random and Personal Ordnance disabled The game type will be featured on the following maps: • Longbow • Complex • Daybreak • Exile • Outcast • Meltdown • Harvest • Wreckage • Vortex • Vertigo • Perdition • Ragnarok • Shatter Next, is the big one, a Halo comic in collaboration with Dark Horse called Halo: Escalation. The comic series spins directly out of the events of Halo 4, and begins when the UNSC Infinity is assigned escort duty for a diplomatic mission between the Arbiter and the Brutes. The first issue arrives in stores next Wednesday, December 11th. This sounds juicy, doesn't it? A sample from Issue #1, right before the event of SP Ops actually, is below, Some wallpapers are also available, and they are ripe with colour, if I do say so myself. Final note to those in Seattle, a small launch party will be underway wednesday, with a few guests, I'd personally go if I were you, Cheers!
  21. I'll be there, mainly because, I prefer being circle rather then square, This sounds fun, a question, these are only for Halo right?
  22. Recently, it has been revealed that Destiny will be on Game Informers January 2014 cover, the Game Informer Magazine will feature 14 pages of Destiny News galore and 15 Detailed screens! Unfortunately, we have some time to wait, unless, you have a subscription to the Digital version. Though none can copy the screens yet, this is an amazing edition. You should pick it up immediately! Further news states that GI will be giving away 100 beta codes as well over the next two weeks, over a month of interviews and news as well! I can't wait to see what it is, I'm sure you guys can't either! Cheers!
