Anyone watching any BlizzCon today/tomorrow?

Risk of Rain came out today on Steam!



I played the SHIT out of the beta of this roguelike action game. Insanely challenging, great music, and grimey old school graphics that I love.

Went to a vintage game shop and picked up this:



Super underrated game. And holy balls the music! Exhibit A:

I have no context but I found this entertaining:

I bought PS3's Assassin Creed Black Flag, WWE 2K14, and Lego Super Hereos for Target's B2G1 sale in Dallas. I came up here for the Blackhawks game vs the Stars. I went early to the store, which was a good thing because they only had two copies left of WWE.

Does my pawn show up for you? If she does, use her to initiate EZ mode. I don't know if she'll show up in the Dark Arisen version.

Dark Souls New Game+ can straight up eat me. The enemy power spike is INSANE. At least you get a ton of souls, but Christ, it's somehow even EASIER to die.

I really, REALLY don't understand how people think that Demon's Souls is harder than Dark Souls. And some people argue even exponentially so. I guess there is the fact that defeating a boss is your only checkpoint, but still, never found that to be nearly as hard as some of the confusion of where to go, or, worse, the tight, insane environments (I need to fight these arches that have giant, seeking arrors that knock my back if I block and knock me down if I don't? Great...oh and I get to do it on a ledge that is literally smaller than the width of my character? FUN!)

Not sure. I'm level 18 but have no idea wtf I'm doing in this game. I just really like my character and his vocation is awesome. The combat is fun as hell too, and the presentation is better than Skyrim's. I just never know what's going on or where I should go.

here is something weird that maybe one of you video gurus can explain. I dl boardwalk empire. it wont playback the video in WMP on my PC, but it will playback streaming through WMP to my PS3...

never had that happen before. if it wont play in wmp on the pc, it usually wont playback on the ps3 either.

Sounds like you don't have the proper Codecs on your pc. Look up the Klite codec package and that should help.
