    How do you get out of the bad players lobby in GTA:V?

    If somebody spawnkills you then the game is fine with that, however if you manage to blow up their car when they're doing this then you get labelled a bad player. Just an example of the "wonderful" system. So basically, you get it for destroying people's cars. In Grand Theft Auto. Yea.

    Games that you've been burnt by

    Ah yea, I forgot about GW2. I went into it really optimistically and gave it the benefit of the doubt so many times but at the end of the day it's basically worse than WoW in every regard except for visuals. The combat is some of the worst I've ever seen in gaming, to the point where I'd...

    Games that you've been burnt by

    Sleeping Dogs. Bought it on release because it looked really great, but the melee combat turned out to be such an complete and utter trainwreck that I just gave up and uninstalled it on the same day. Shame, everything else about it was at least average or above.

    Pokemon X and Y released in UK day early

    Which retailers is that, do you mean all of them?

    DotA vs LoL...which is better?

    Yea, basically. I strongly hate slow turning circles, just generally in any game. GTAV is also guilty of this, and it's why SR4 and Warframe are such a dream to play.

    DotA vs LoL...which is better?

    Yea, no. Dota 2 character control is sluggish, whereas LoL feels tighter and more responsive. It's like controlling CoD vs. controlling TF2. Also, LoL CC doesn't last as long as the insane times on some of the Dota spells. Along with that you generally don't dump your entire mana in the space...

    "True" Endings and Gated Content

    I read somewhere that in Japanese the conversation options make way more sense, and it's quite a simple matter to initiate the normal ending route. Don't know if that's true, though.

    Poll: Preferred means of travel in Saints Row IV

    I jumped sometimes, but only to clear obstacles (like those pesky skyscrapers, tsk). Otherwise I just ran around with tornado throwing shit everywhere. God that game was good.

    Poll: What's Your Deal With Easy Mode

    Why do people seem to think that challenge is a requirement for fun in a video game? There are a disturbing number of people here who seem to subscribe to that idea. Let's put it this way: Saint's Row 4. Is it challenging? No, not at all. It isn't meant to be. It is in my opinion, however...

    So I just finished Saints Row IV

    I can't really find fault with SR4. Heck, it's probably the most fun I've ever had with a video game, ever. In my mind it's barely even comparable to most titles of its kind, GTA included. It totally blew GTA4 out of the water (as all the SR games did, to be fair) and frankly I think it's at...

    Sleeping dogs worth buying?

    Damn, I literally couldn't complete that mission even after a couple hours trying again and again. The whole combat system didn't work for me, eventually I ran out of those environmental instant kill points and then I was just screwed.

    Sleeping dogs worth buying?

    Everyone in this thread is saying that the combat was this great thing, did I play a different game? The hand to hand combat was completely impossible and killed my progression on the spot whenever you were forced to actually fight anything. I couldn't even get past that mission with the...

    Sleeping dogs worth buying?

    Probably one of the worst games that I've ever played. The combat completely broke the game.

    Poll: Will you Purchase Saints Row IV?

    Already put in my preorder on Steam, that game just looks awesome. SR3 was so much better than GTA4, even more of the same would've been fine.

    Poll: Did You Kill Paarthurnax?

    No, I didn't kill him. He was a bro and I didn't have any reason to kill him just because some randomer told me to. I did however use a console command to keep him alive but complete the quest. Consider it me lying to Delphine.
