General gaming chit chat.

I thought the beginning of the description of this DOS game was funny: But that might only be me :-)

Description
With robots now in control of the Earth, the last remaining humans are held in a Zoo. They are alongside key American artifacts, for the entertainment and curiosity of the robot overlords...
 
Got GTA V installed. Was in the game. Change some settings. Loaded up Story Mode and it crashed to a "ERR_FIL_PACK_3" error.

Verifying files now. Gonna be a big download of "corrupted data, I know it!

I did not have this issue with Windows 7 -way back when.

The update is apparently 2.19 of 5.04GB completed. Guess I gotta do it, if I wish to play this game (that I love so much) again.
 
Playing Dragon Age 2 after battling my ass of with Dragon Age origins and eventually quitting after 5 years on/off play.

Wow what a flippin great game it is. Cant believe it was panned like it was. I've been playing for weeks now, it's so great.

I also liked it. I can understand that people were angry about the areas that are reused but it was a great game in my opinion. Inquisition is just as awesome! And yet people don't talk much about Inquisition either.
 
Funny, the Witcher 3 re-ignited my love for RPG's and I went back to my old Dragon Age 1 save but I quit because I hate my character haha Elven Rogue.......not my type but tried something different.

So I gave DA 2 a shot and its exactly how I thought DA should be: A Fantasy styled Mass Effect. I have DA Inquisition too which I will definitely get too when Im done with number 2.

I really cant stop playing it though, its utterly fantastic. The battles are crazy chaotic especially with a few high level area of affect spells in the mix.

I wish more RPG's had companion tactics that you could set up. Its so cool not having to baby sit them but at the same time knowing there success has still been based on your input.
 
I think I've made the conscious decision last night to stop purchasing and/or playing online first person shooters.

I realised how poorly I play and how easily upset I get when playing such games (PvP).
People are that much better than me, and my atrocious K/D does not help either. Heck - at one point I think I was on 5/20+ K/D respectively; if that doesn't make you just want to quit, I don't know what will.

I love shooters, but online against highly-skilled players -- not my cup of tea.. anymore.
 
Who remembers this game? I played this game to bits...but never got very far, still, was great game. Great sound, visuals and was loads of fun.

PS. Dont watch in front of your kids, AVGN drops more f bombs per munite than most rap songs.

We all have to start somewhere :) was in the same boat as you guys.

I was just as kak, but after a few days/hours you can dramatically improve if you put your mind to it.

I never touched a FPS in my life, and i don't plan to. I watched some of my friends play it, and it does not look easy alright. I'm guessing I'm sticking to TPS.
 
So, I wanted Dishonored 2, loved the first one. Then saw this over at raru.... pre-ordered. Well, I've been oogling over it for a while now, but it became available for pre-order yesterday.

To me, for the price, it looks like a great package, especially if you see what other Collectors Editions go for these. A bit above my purchasing bracket, but what the hell. That mask just grabbed my attention so much in the first game, a rally unique item. Also, its not small, it stands 34cm tall.

This looks good!

it does look good, but I hate when I dont see any gameplay, kinda leaves me hanging. It builds up the hype for the game turns around, gives you the middle finger and walks away seductively....but not in a good way.

Googled and found this

Amsterdam – August 4th, 2016 - Gambitious Digital Entertainment has announced it is partnering with independent developer Pixel Spill to release the upcoming narrative adventure game Outreach.

Set in the 1980s near the fall of the Cold War, Outreach sends players into the unforgiving grips of Earth’s orbit as a lone cosmonaut to investigate the disappearance of the crew of a covert Soviet military space station. They’ll have to explore this crippled and seemingly abandoned installation, uncovering the secrets behind the lives and fates of those surrounding it along the way.

Outreach challenges players to use their coordination and reflexes to explore a realistic zero-gravity world both inside and outside of the station. Surfaces can be pushed off of using the main character’s hands and feet for propulsion, and handrails can be grabbed to keep from flying off into the unending depths of space.

Blurring fact and fiction, Outreach’s story draws inspiration from both the history and conspiracy theories of the Cold War and Space Race. Environments, technology and objects have been recreated with meticulous detail to their real-world designs. The game also features the voice talent of Adam Harrington, known for his role as Bigby Wolf in The Wolf Among Us, and Vine performer Matthew Post.

Outreach is expected to launch in 2017 on Windows PC and Mac. For more information as it develops, please visit http://outreachgame.co.uk
