Video Game General 6.5: Now with more surprise mechanics

Jesus…just take his shit away. Turn the electricity off in his room. Could have done a few other things then full on Gigaton Blow the kid.

I defend CoD but the story isn’t about the game. It’s about a woman who doesn’t know how to parent their child.

Got fight n rage for $10 on steam today, fantastic brawler. Well balanced for a modern take, but I’m baffled that it doesn’t save your stage progress or a stage map since it has unlimited continues. Got to the last boss and had to wrap it up for the night, annoying to know that I have to go all the way through it again to try and beat the bastard again. I’d get it if it was balanced around limited continues.

Well sure, we’re not stupid enough to think the problem is COD or Fortnight.

I dont see people doing Gigapunches over dumb shit with other games.
But yeah the real problem is with something deeper in the individual

But do I want to is the question.

Well the FGC has always been shit, so there.

I was gonna say dude, the Marvel 2 scene has a history of stabbing people in dark arcades at one point.

Getting in fist fights for throwing in Street Fighter II.

That’s a fight we don’t want to pick bro.

Tbf, Tick throwing was grounds for a beating back in the day. Shit was not cool.

The only thing that I found disappointing with this game was that the unlockable characters (and there’s quite a few) cannot be played in the regular story mode (so I guess they can only be used in the Vs. mode, if I recall)… that kinda squashed some of the hype out of unlocking them for me. I would’ve enjoyed going thru all the levels with new characters over and over.

GEARS 5, though…
A little while ago I finally played Horde on Inconceivable difficulty for the first time…holy shit that was awesome, man… I was playing as Jack so I probably had an easier time than the others though, but ohhhhh it was so good. Unfortunately, of all the times I didn’t have my “Optimizer” card equipped…of course it just happened to be the night I had a really good team and playing on that difficulty…several waves later I remembered suddenly that I didn’t have that card equipped! I could’ve been generating wayyyy more power; my card for that is level 5, I think :frowning:

The Sentinels are so damn dangerous though… quite a few times we got so close to being wiped out just because one of those flew into the base…and on that difficulty (*ALL the modifiers on), those things take you down in literally 1 second or so…if they even see you and fire a shot, you’re going down immediately, like some “Halo on Legendary” shit. We made it to wave 40…and finally it was one of those combined with a boss that wiped the team.

Bruh! Don’t forget that Vampyr comes out on switch (technically) today!

I doubt I needed to remind you but I’m excited for you.

4chan ““leak”” about Blizzard from a former employee of theirs. Credibility is questionable, but it does mention OverWatch 2 full 4 months before the recent confirmation (this screenshot was made in June)

Take it as you will, but I personally don’t believe it. I mean, turning Diablo into a looter shooter? Even Blizzard isn’t that stupid

We shouldn’t under estimate their stupidity at this point.
