from what another guy said on a different forum, the Morse Code on the sight reads the date of the announcement (when the count down finishes)

edit: also rumor has it it'll take place in Boston.

So I was watching extra credit's "games you might have missed" and came across this around 2:15 in the video. Its an RPG about running a shop in an RPG. Its called Recettear. has anyone tried this? I may load up the demo when I get home today. I am not much of a JRPG kind of guy but the idea of being a shop owner in an action RPG sound intriguing.

The Demo on steam.

Also apparently what you do in the demo would transfer to the actual $20 game if you decide to buy it according to EC's video.

Would've been a great idea if it wasn't anime goo.

Meh, just an art style. Ni no kuni worked despite the anime style.

Can't get excited about another fallout unless they do something new. Bit of a post apoc overload recently. I'm finding as I get older bugs annoy me more and more - I have less time to play so if I end up having to replay a huge chunk because an npc bugs out or whatever it's enough to make me want to drop the game. Bethesda is notorious for that.

so I got rome to work, but turning off all mods.

Cant launch a save of games i had mods on for- the last 2 campaigns i was running.

I didn't know they had RTW for consoles!

Blame the developers. CA's track record for this kind of bullshit isn't admirable.

Haha, that was hilarious.

So I decided that since I never played through Mass Effect 2 or 3, I'd do that.

I started yesterday, and before I noticed I'd played ME2 for 10 hours.

Nice.

Feanor Fire Heart · « **Reply #6260 on:** November 21, 2013, 02:39:41 PM »

ME2 is the best of the series IMHO. Did you port a character from ME1?

Fandir Nightshade · « **Reply #6261 on:** November 21, 2013, 02:42:19 PM »

Bioshock Infinite expansion out...and nobody is talking about it.

Feanor Fire Heart · « **Reply #6262 on:** November 21, 2013, 03:18:23 PM »

havnt finished the original infinite so havnt tried the DLC...heard it was OK at best.

Feanor Fire Heart · « **Reply #6263 on:** November 21, 2013, 04:22:17 PM »

Well....I am through it.....yes within a couple of hours and nope it sadly isn´t good.....even though I still want it to be.

Finlay · « **Reply #6265 on:** November 21, 2013, 06:34:05 PM »

Infinite was ok with quite an interesting astory, but a weird middle section and pacing and not overwhelming gameplay.
Not that interested in an expansion.

Desperate fir the xcom expansion, but trying to be good and wait...
New Zelda I might buy, and pokemon at Xmas. Might buy Xbox one if there's a good bundle.

It's good. Another playthrough, but they really added a lot. Including a surprise or two.

After a 3 month break I've picked up Red Dead Redemption again. It's like I've never been away, great game, finished 5 missions right after each other, was really sucked in again.

Still playing MWO but atm only if there's people from my friends list online. Fighting battles and grinding for money and xp are much more fun with friends!

honestly I friggin love ME2
*spoiler*
kind of wish they made the reaper invasion ME4 of 5 and had 3 be another romp in the galaxy.

I detest Miranda. Hopefully she'll die.

Finlay · « **Reply #6271 on:** November 22, 2013, 04:04:14 PM »

miranda was an awful character. never used her.

good game, though. imo needed to be slightly more rpgish

Feanor Fire Heart · « **Reply #6272 on:** November 22, 2013, 04:11:20 PM »

I won't say much about Miranda, suffice it to say, after a certain obvious point, she becomes cool with me. Kind of like the trooper's first companion in The Old Republic Aric. Comes off as a tight wad but grows to be your friend. Granted Aric in SW:TOR did it WAAAAYYYYYY better and more naturally.

Playing Chivalry: Medieval Warfare tonight. Cracking skulls with a morning star is brutally fun

Feanor Fire Heart · « **Reply #6274 on:** November 23, 2013, 08:13:06 AM »

finally got around to finishing Far Cry 3. I knew about the choice in the end but the way they went about it, I wasn't expecting that. All in all I give the game an 4/5. It was fantastically done with a couple of interesting characters but there was a huge disconnect between Jason and the player IMHO. Definitely one of those games that show you the dark side. I'd recommend it.
