beautiful tune/game/ great channel(other places)

 

I've been trying to tell you lot this for months, get cracking!

Holy shit.

I just fought Mega Satan in the Binding of Isaac. I've got all the endings now, but still need to unlock one challenge plus get a few items.

been trying to get into Mount & Blade (Warband).... most of my time so far has been spent trying to figure out what to do with myself, but I just became a mercenary for the Rhodoks and things seem to be picking up. fun game, i'm just terrible at open world sims... I basically have my character do whatever I'd do IRL, which in this case is relegating myself to being a peasant and trading grain between villages for a pittance. im so lame.

This looks amazing. Is a flight stick strongly recommended?

Been playing Game Dev Tycoon, having a lot of fun. Made a million with a FPS for the mbox called Hallo. Lost lots of money with a game called Hokeballs on the portable GPS system. Fun fun.

Oh, and my main programmer is called Tycho Brahe.

Yay for PS4s on sale at Walmart today. Just bought one. Gonna play some Guilty Gear Xrd if I can pull myself out of bed.....

Mario Maker levels will be shareable online:

 

http://m.ign.com/articles/2014/12/18/youll-be-able-to-share-your-levels-with-others-in-mario-maker

 

Any news on how big a level you can create? And if you can warp pipes?

 

Word has it you can unlock warp pipes in Mario maker if you use the Warp Pipe amiibo™ .. should be coming out early 2015.

I can't tell if that's a joke or not.

This looks very immersive. although I'm a little turned off by the fact that it's an mmo.

Ignoring the fact that it's an 'online-only' game, there is a solo mode where you can play without any human interaction - so you can spacetruck or pirate your way around the galaxy without any pesky humans getting in the way.

I've heard talk of the gamepad support being competent, and to a lesser extent kb+m, however the HOTAS I bought for it (Saitek X52 Pro) should have been bundled with the game - it really ramps up the immersion, and the button maps are perfect for navigating the in-game interface. You'll still need a keyboard handy for typing in system names in the galaxy map (ED's futuristic version of using GPS), but everything else can go over to the buttons on either the throttle stick or flight stick.

This gives me a nice excuse to repost my pics from earlier this year:

Rock Paper Shotgun's latest article is a good place to start for getting up to speed - a lot of the older articles written on the game are fairly out of date now, what with the steady stream of updates and refinements across alpha/beta/gamma builds.

i,m getting by fine using a 360 pad and keyboard combo,sticking to solo mode at the mo,till i fully get my bearings,i sort of get some of the criticisms of the game, and combat can be pretty unforgiving,but as an immersive/exploration type of game it is so good,and probably as close as any of us will get to actual space flight,well worth checking out imo if u feel like treating yourself for xmas

this and assetto corsa are eating up my free time at the mo

Best Photoshop job ever. Looks like someone used a dog to cut out that sewer pipe.

got a few games for my birfday. dunno when i'll be able to get to them. alien: isolation (ps4), smash bros, little big planet 3. probably will be the only stuff i get for the rest of the year. kind of excited about playing alien after seeing how legit scary games can be now with p.t.

is there tutorial mode in smash like there is in 99% of fighting games now? something that walks you through the mechanics of the game. somehow i've managed to never play much smash ;O

Smash is just 2 buttons. You'll be fine without a tutorial.

The Evil Within is getting my time here - almost done chapter 6 I think and I've come to the conclusion that it is indeed a Resident Evil game.

 

Can't wait for it to get all racist......

I reached chapter 6 with a friend on his super computer with a giant tv and surround system. We were both incredibly impressed with the game, saying that it looked amazing. Frankly, I've never seen such good graphics. The lighting is unbelievable in his i7 with one of those radeons with 2 gpus and 3 fans. Sorry but I'm out Of touch with cutting edge pc gaming. Too bad I won't be able to finish it, since my iMac can't handle it. Is it good on ps4? I would buy one for that and Bloodborne. Honestly, evil within made me want to go all pc gaming master race and buy a neon pc tower with the latest sli gpus.

Captain Toad is really fun.

I agree. I was having a good time with it for the short period of time I had to play it. Hopefully I can get back to it later this week.

Finally beat Risk of Rain with a friend - the game is even more fun when you play it on coop, the ending is beautiful, boss battles were massive !

Aaaaannnnnd a friend of mine just offered me The Stanley Parable, played it for an hour and couldn't stop laughing - game is utterly fun

I need to finish Shovel Knight. The last time I played, the game glitched up on me and I had to start a stage over. It pissed me off and I just never got back to it.
