...Um.

The way they have the POV for the bow is... really off.  Like the person's head is floating a foot to the right of where it should be.

Other than that, yeah, it looks like fun.

CoD except not shit, huh?  Then it isn't CoD ;D

It looks like a high-quality mod for Mount & Blade.

Has anyone here played Catherine? I think most people generally agreed that it was a shitty game, and yet I can't shake the urge to play it and find some stuff I might've overlooked in the first playthrough.

Guys, this is getting creepy. Can we talk about cannibalism instead?

Hooked up my 360 to my PC monitor, much more convenient and a bigger screensize than the tiny TV on my desk. determined to get Dark Souls and The Witcher 2 beat before August.

Nothing that comes from Harvest Moon is terrible.

Except this isn't Harvest Moon, it's just the same creator. And besides, I never said it would be bad, just that it's either a ripoff or a huge coincidence.

http://www.gamesradar.com/best-ps-vita-games/ I keep forgetting to order Gravity Rush. Also, Y U NO MENTION PURE CHESS OR BLAZBLUE?

Also, I've completed Ys Origin with Yunica, and I'm going through it again with Hugo. Why?

So after getting some good reviews from a couple friends, I finally decided to go out and buy Dragon's Dogma.

One thing that made me love the game is that it has I swear one of the best companion AI's I've ever seen.

I'm a bit surprised with the lack of Diablo 3 commentary.  But that's maybe because they're too busy playing the game.

IMO, it's much better balanced than D2 (as in no clearly useless skills, fewer completely useless item mods).  My 2 cents on the next patch is that they shouldn't nerf IAS (it's not overpowered to the point that it's a "must have" over other good modifiers), and they shouldn't nerf act2 inferno.  While it is ridiculously hard, that's kinda the whole point of inferno difficulty.

Though they should fix the "invisible projectile" issue...

I find the forums http://us.battle.net/d3/en/forum/3354739/ to be 100x more entertaining than the game itself.

I just find dungeon crawlers to be about as interesting as watching cricket. That is to say, not even remotely interesting.

Looks like dwarf fortress has had some serious updates lately, they have actual containers now, so no more hauling one seed at a time. Not that I have the slightest clue how to use any of this yet.

Also, Checking out the secret world beta this weekend, if anyone wanted to know anything I can rattle out a summary.
