Gaming Thread 11/02/2014Apparently one can bruise their kidneys when spraining enough muscles in the lower back. And don't be a goober, if you fall, get up as soon right after unless you want to be living on the floor for a few days till you say to hell with it and call the paramedics. Final parting piece of advice before I get on with the show, sometimes it just better to let plants rot through the cold as when you get older, anything can pop anytime, anywhere.
GOG had a countdown for a new publisher being added and it ended up being LucasArts. Contract is for 30 games with the initial offerings being: Indiana Jones And the Fate of Atlantis (been on Steam for awhile now but nice to see a no DRM option) And really, the stars of the show: Hot damn. So good ![]()
• Bethesda finally gives a non-crap look at the upcoming Battlecry • Apparently someone still trusts Denis Dyack enough to give him money. Only question I have is: WHY?
As I laid on my bedroom floor for a few days, the two games that got me through it were Sentinels (which I've found works better digitally) and this year's release of Pro Strategy Football. With Sentinels, I've found that just the general gameflow meshes better with the computer taking care of everything for me (and the card game is pretty obtuse on it's rules and just the amount of cards). That being said, the presentation really leaves a bit desired. I'm still not a fan of the game's art and any sort of videogame effects could really push the game forward. And I've personally never noticed in how needed the expansions are to this game as it's a bit lacking in variety. If you like the physical game, buy this and hope they release the expansions. If you haven't, eh...there are worse games out there but I'd wait for a sale. I really liked last year's game and Pro Strategy Football 2014 starts off the same. The game is just good wholesome stratergy fun wrapped in American Football. I like that he added casual difficulty mode for who wants to get their feet wet before they play the game for real. The bump from Tecmo Bowl to to a 16-bit version of Tecmo Bowl is actually quite nice. That being said, the UI is still atrocious and seriously hurts the game and it's appeal. If he could get that squared away, you would have a serious contender with mainstream appeal on his hands. And I also wish it shipped with the career mode as playing the season is a lot of fun but being able to keep a team and seeing them stay together. Of course this would also hopefully lead down to robust GM options. Just one of those games that is great but it needs more polish and a bigger budget. I very much recommend it if you want a turn based football game that borrows from Tom Landry Strategy Football. It's Call of Duty week, you're not getting much in new releases. Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare (PC, PS3, PS4, XBO, 360) - They've finally done it, they've added zombies into the campaign with Zombie Spacey. Considering this is tracking 70% worse than Black Ops 2, this should be interesting. So shaken Activision are with this, they've added a new mechanic with the limited use jet packs. Game looks good IMO and I'm really not a fan of COD so this game is gonna bomb so hard. Be curious on the deals on this during the Christmas season. Depth (PC) - After years of talking about it and showing off the alpha and beta, this divers vs shark multiplayer game is finally coming out. It's strictly all death match. Hope this game is good
