EDIT : oh and by the way I saw videos of an upcoming DLC for the original Binding of Isaac, looks like they want the game to be harder, again

EDIT: wait, the original? Not the Rebirth? That's a bit weird... I thought Rebirth was the way he always wanted it, and that using Flash was very limiting... Feels weird going back to that

Edit Edit: Ah, its DLC for the new and old game, the latter being free, I approve ==> http://bindingofisaac.com/post/110884940374/afterbirth

im actually stoked as fuck. 100 new items.

He's also currently asking reddit which synergies they want the most, he said its a bitch to code them all in because there is literally too many combinations, but some wacky monstros lung combos will be awesome.

Anybody played Evolve yet? I've heard despite all the debate over how they handled DLC that it's actually a pretty damn good game and the 4v1 is actually more dynamic than initially appears...

 

Don't get it until they patch the Wraith (one of the monsters), it's too damn OP and ruins what could have been a great game.

 

Ok I'm exaggerating a bit, if everybody works together it's GREAT fun, a lot like Natural Selection meets L4D.

 

Yeah I ended up picking it up and playing a lot this weekend, and overall it's a pretty good game and definitely addicting... I'm pretty damn awful at playing the monster so I spend like 90% of the time as a Hunter. Wraith definitely needs a slight nerf I agree, I've managed to take a few down but they really are just a pain in the ass. I think nerfing the decoy would be a big help, either make it so the decoys can't do damage to the hunter, and/or significantly increase the cooldown so it can't just be spammed by the monster...

Against any case the important part seems to be that hunters know their roles and follow them... A team of hunters doing their jobs can stand up against most stage 3's even.

Man, the more I talk about video games the less interesting of a person I feel like. Well screw it, I'll do it anyway.

Back into Borderlands 2, level 39 Siren on the True Vault Hunter playthrough. Still think BL2 is better than The Pre-Sequel was.

I'm probably gonna get back into Fallout 3 with mods next, but that might be another month away. I'm itching to see how it works on the Lenovo laptop - four months later it's still kicking ass.

Wasteland 2 tho...that's one I've barely scratched. I've played the 1988 original game too, but kept getting my posse wiped out by either mutant critters or ruffians in a club. The second one was described by one critic as "what Fallout 3 would have been, had it not taken the FPS route." Pretty accurate description.

More plants in space, getting big now:

Speaking of game screenshots, where is Jason Donervan? Did he finally integrate himself entirely into GTA V?

guys, i want to play some new games, but i dont have the time to immerse myself for hours. i want a really good casual system for things like platformers & shooters. who shall i go with? xbox/ps/wii?

least money outlay as well, im trying to sort out my studio, just needing some relaxing time inbetween shiz.

im thinking a second-hand wii? i havent played any of the wii marios or other games yet

Agreed.

Grow Home is so cool, but it actuallly triggers my vertigo like fuck. ive only grown my plant a few times, but looking down, or stumbling at that height makes me queasy as fuck.

my new gf won some tournaments years ago in battlefield, so shes pretty good at computer games. and i havent played a mariokart since the '64. that could be really fun.

i expect it will get heated. she hates losing

I played through Fract OSC over the weekend. Cool stuff, I imagine a few knob twiddlers will be interested in it

Just begun Gunpoint, a stealth puzzle game which allow you to re-trigger levels (you can rewire the objects of the map between them to achieve your purposes). Original game mechanics + funny story telling = win !

Come at me, bro.

I'm still having trouble getting Meat Boy though. I've gotten three cubes using the Book of Revelations and then can't get the fourth because Mr. Fred spawns in Utero. SO FRUSTRATING

Yeah it seems its pretty hard to get a full Meatboy, the book of revelations method is the most straighforward, but it still doesnt guarantee 4 cubes in a row

I gave up and tried a few strategies here ==> http://bindingofisaacrebirth.gamepedia.com/Cube_Of_Meat

Not sure if thats "cheating", but it's very hard to get it from just casually playing.

Yeah, BUD's shanky ass wobbling walk doesn't help when you're tottering above the Earth.

Yeah man, I thought that came was great, surprised there wasn't more talk about it here!

Been playing a lot of Counter-Strike: Source recently, and I have no idea why. Haven't played it regularly for around 8 years. It's crazy how the servers are still really populated, especially when you consider it came out in '04.

are they not just populated with bots? i couldnt find a single server that was human only.

Predator DLC headed to Mortal Kombat X

In news that will probably shock no one, The Order: 1886 is getting roundly thrashed in reviews, confirming what everyone suspected the game's major flaws were to be...

I've been playing a lot of Guilty Gear Xrd Sign on PS4 - picked it up for 24.00 on a PSN one-day Flash Sale.

fuck sake, 429 hours on binding of isaac. im ready to say its the best game ive played in my 20's. goes in my top 3 games of all time, zelda ocarina/majora as a child, CSS as a teenager, binding of isaac now.

still got the lost to go but i dont even think im good enough. i can win ??? with a decent first floor most times now, but even then im guaranteed to get hit 6 or 7 times.

i don't get why developers and publishers even bother with games like the order: 1886. are they really that out of touch? as soon as they released early info about that game it became apparent that it was gonna flop big time. how could they not see it? or don't they care at all?

I bet they made a tech demo, showed it to Sony and they were like, "fuck yeah, graphics'n'shit! Turn it into a game and we'll publish it. You have 2 years."

Whats the Order 1886 controversy about? I'm out of the loop

:D

Graphics are nice and all but honestly I'd rather have something I can play
