Never heard of Warframe! But liking the memes!

Is it based on a true story?

Payday 2 has had a number of crossover events that it's gone through.
There are missions and masks modeled after Hotline Miami, there are heists based on the new Point Break movie as well as Bodhi being a playable character (the movie looks like ass, but the missions are actually really good in this). For the longest time I thought the coolest addition was the inclusion of John Wick as a playable character.
That is, until now...



Oh my god.
That might be the greatest thing I've ever seen. Goat Simulator is amazing, and Payday 2 is always friggin great. Mixing peanut butter and chocolate here. I almost passed out from excitement when I saw that this was an actual thing.
The DLC comes out in two days, and I'll be buying it immediately.

Anyone play The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel? Was thinking of getting it for the Vita.

I have heard nothing but good things about it but i have not played it myself yet. Im still trying to finish up trails in the sky second chapter. I have been active on the xseed forums lately and have seen that fan reception and the reviews are good for the game. Would this be your first kiseki game yama?

This could save hardcore gamers some money

Play lots of video games? Got Amazon Prime? Then you’ll love the online retailer’s latest announcement.

Amazon Prime members will now get 20% off the cost of new video games ordered through the site, the company announced Tuesday. That knocks about $12 off the price of a $60 title.

The discount applies to physical copies of new games either pre-ordered before their release date or purchased in their first two weeks of availability. Games pre-ordered on Amazon are shipped to be delivered on release day.

It’s worth noting that Best Buy has a similar deal, Gamers Club Unlocked, with a lower cost of entry. Best Buy’s program offers the same 20% discount, along with other perks, for $30 every two years. Amazon Prime, meanwhile, costs $99 a year. But Prime also comes with a host of other non-gaming benefits, like free two-day shipping, access to Amazon’s streaming movie and TV catalog and lots more.

Glad to see they have addressed their video game pre-order issue to some degree, this might just get me on board for prime this year, and the 20% discount on newly released games and pre-orders is awesome sauce too.

That's good news. The free crap upon pre-order hasn't been much of an incentive anymore.

Yeah, it'd be my first. Have always heard good things, never tried it.

I had plans. A great life ahead of me. That is until I got over the hump and past the honeymoon period of The Witcher 3. Thought White Orchard was a cinch, had it down in around 10 hours, 100%. Then after a lengthy story and cutscene, I am now looking at the size of Velen, never mind The Skellige Isles, or Novigrad, which I have a funny feeling will be even bigger than Velen.

Nice knowing ya all. Catch ya next year. Maybe. Who knows.

Well give it a try! Although I would personally recomend playing Trails in the Sky if you want a more old school experience done very very well.

I can just see Adam going out in public wearing one of these things.

[Jesse]

I was sent a video of the game Undertale and does the piano trickle in the Snowdin area remind anybody else of Kingdom Heart 1's Dearly Beloved?

[MiTT3NZ]

Probably what he needs then, coz I can't see him goin out in public without one.

Not sure which would be worse tbh.

Just put a 24 hour shift in on The Witcher 3. Apart from YS 3, this is the first full on open world RPG I've ever played. Never played Final Fantasy or Elder Scrolls etc. before.

I feel tired, fucked up, drained. Are they supposed to be addictive? I'm 34 hours in, and from what I have read, I am not even 40% through the game yet. Are they normally this long? I mean the story is so in depth and long, but that's not including the side missions, contracts, undiscovered locations, haggling, crafting, brewing, upgrading, alchemy, looting, spell casting, hunting... I've never played a game for 24 hours straight before. Had 2 lites of coke, a pizza, 4 sandwiches, 3 red bull, 5 coffees throughout the day... and I am talking shit. But I can't close my eyes! !!
