Support NeoGAF

[Rahk]

I thought Jambo had to invite?

Or have they changed it?

 

[remz]

There already is a Trackmania 2 AusGAF group. Group name is AusGAF and I can't remember if there is a password.

hmm... just tried to manually join it and I think there is a password, but I many have done it wrong. Ingame nickname is Remz

Darksiders is 5 bucks on steam. Worth a buy?

 

[Shaneus]

Definitely! I haven't played it at all, but in the name of adding to your Steam games list... it's a steal.

It's supposed to be orright, too.

Westwood Studios

I stopped playing rts after their demise

Spoiler

infact I quit pc gaming

Indeed it is. Even cookie liked it if I recall correctly. It really is a zeldaesque game. Loved it. The sequel looks even better. Dat artwork.

Also Blade Runner and Nox were underappreciated. Poor Westwood. Thanks EA!

 

[Salazar]

Battlefront II downloading.

I really liked it a few years back. Hoping it holds up a little.

A 90-year-old woman from the NSW south coast has been charged with high-range drink driving.

The elderly woman was stopped by police conducting roadside breath-testing along the Princes Highway at Bateman's Bay at 10.15pm last night.

She returned a positive reading of 0.230 and was arrested at the scene.

The woman has been charged with failing to supply a breath analysis after she failed a breath test at the police station as well as driving under the influence.

apparently she nearly hit some cops

Football Manager 2012 is SteamWorks for those who wanted to buy it on GMG.

Also RAGE has gone gold and I really, really hope GMG get access to it. I want. Gunplay looks and sounds fantastic.

I love the level of detail in the world... really quite different. Although that trailer serves as a timely reminder that I really need to finish Bulletstorm.

Oh hey, my XBL sub ran out this weekend. I dont know if I care enough to re-subscribe to it.

Driving lesson over. 15 people killed, 12 cyclists injured, 1 dog squashed.

A rousing success.

 

[Yagharek]

You can be a taxi driver!

 

[Yagharek]

Whee, just played the Fifa 12 demo. Nice to know its as rubbish as it has been since 2008.

What I wouldn't give to see the first Carmageddon appear on GOG with 3D support.

Are there any good arcadey-type soccer games available for 360 or PS3? FIFA, rubbish or not, always struck me as being a little bit too technical for me. Same with NBA2k11, which, while obviously impressive, I just can't get into.

On June 1, 2011, Stainless Games revealed that they had re-acquired the rights to Carmageddon. A new title, Carmageddon: Reincarnation, is in early development for a 2012 release.

Also try the FIFA Street games Shaneus.

Did you play the new NBA Jam?
I played it on iPad lul.
Fun but repetitive.

 

[reptilescorpio]

NEW MACHINE HEAD ALBUM IS GLORIOUS.
Looking forward to the vinyl shipping, will feel like butter in my ears.

I'm all for PES, but I give Fifa a go every year and come up with the same complaints. Fifa has stilted animations, no middle ground between braindead AI and untouchable AI, and it is just not as good as people say.

PES lets you play a game that looks like an EPL highlights reel. But it doesnt change much from year to year. My advice would be try a demo or get PES 09 or 11 cheap and see if its your thing.

edit: In the interests of disclosure I just scored a cracker of a goal with Bale.

Not 360 or PS3, but First Touch Football on iPad is just bliss, for me.

I knew they had the rights but wasn't sure whether that was solely for a new game or not. I remember loving the shit out of the first game (still know where the CD is!) and would jump on the 3D accelerated one in a heartbeat if it appeared on GOG. Maybe they'd even float the idea of releasing it on there to drum up some funds for the new game.

Will check out a demo of Street, too... cheers for the tip. Just want something I can bash around and have fun with, something similar to Virtua Striker but I fear that Street might be a little too "yo homie" for my tastes.

No iPad, but my iPhone is pretty much dedicated to GP Story. Thanks for the tips, guys.

I actually remember Sega Soccer Slam... wonder if it's BC.

 

[Yagharek]

If you have a wii/dolphin/gc, try Mario Smash Football/Super Mario Strikers. Or Sega Soccer Slam which is also on xbox. Same developer, absolutely mental game.

 

[Shaneus]

Wiki says that for SSS it's unknown if 60Hz works for BC... which is important, given that I'm using a VGA cable.

Sega Soccer Slam and Mario Strikers are both fucking mental, I've pulled several all nighters on both of them, they're just pure FUN

 

[Shaneus]

If that's the case, my best bet might be to get it going on Dolphin. Not exactly minimal fuss, but probably the method most likely to scratch dat itch.

Good to hear it's um good!

Ask Tex, if you still chat with him. Had one night of multiplayer on it and it was insane. We had a 10 minute tiebreaker where it was very hard to breathe. And impossible to score the winning goal.

Edit: Ace Combat Modern Warfare is pretty damn good. PS3 demo was worth a shot.

Now that I'm in the XBox Live Ghetto (silver) its annoying not to be able to get demos whereas on PS3 theyre all available day 1.

Steam is freezing on start up.

I have a Clientregistry.blob and a ClientregistryOld.blob in my folder. What do I do with them, or with either of them, in order to give my account a slap around the face and potentially wake it up ?

 

[Jintor]

It's been a good day for gaming. Vanquish + Advance Wars Days of Ruin + MvC with my bro. ALL UP IN DIS COLONY LOCK IT DOWN K.O.M.G. RADIO, BIZNITCHES

 

[Deeku]

I've been playing Resistance 3.

It's pretty good!

Get rid of them both. I doubt it would be anything to do with the old one, but I normally just add an extension of .old so there's no way Steam can see it.

Edit: I've been playing nothing today, really should though. Not sure what I'm in the mood for... maybe I'll start DE3. Should I bother with comfy couch or just desk it?

 

[markot]

Gotta give it to Abbot, he really pulled one over on Gillard.

Abbot: 'Go harder on refugees!'
Gillard: 'k'
Abbot: 'Go harder on refugees!'
Gillard: 'k'
Abbot: 'Go harder on refugees!'
Gillard: 'k'
Abbot: 'Go hard on refugees!'
Gillard: 'k'
Abbot: 'You're too hard on refugges!'

(First time I have ever used troll face, but I think it fits >_<)

Also a good Drum column, Kevin Rudd as PM and Turnbull as Deputy.

Hell, they should form a new part together! The Twats who are less twatty then the rest of the twats.

Clone Wars Season 4 has begun!

 

[midonnay]

@ the movie Terri.....

wtf did I just watch? D:

 

[reptilescorpio]

Oh Eidos. Just finished Deus Ex HR and I gotta say that you guys did a stellar job. Has made for a fantastic year of gaming, along with TW2 and Portal 2 it will go down as a true classic for me. Brings the IP back to glory and is hopefully a sign to come for the next few titles to come out of the studio.
To show my appreciation I dedicate this picture of a kitten to all who had a hand in bringing this fantastic game to my dirty little hands.

Thank you.

 

[Salazar]

Play Space Marine, reptilescorpio.

 

[Jintor]

I finished Vanquish. Great game, though not quite Bayonetta-tier. Still, Platinum quality!

 

[Salazar]

So happy St George went down.

 

[Planet_JASE]

On you?

 

[EatChildren]

Human Revolution is excellent. Vanquish is sublime. Space Marine is blood for the machine god.

 

[Salazar]

On you?

I thought leaguies preferred dogs.

I just tuned in early and saw Hornby blatantly cheating.

 

[Planet_JASE]

I'm not willing to make that judgement on you.

I'm sure you have a fantastic personality, though.



What's a Hornby?

 

[markot]

Australia lost to Ireland?

Loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool

'National seppuku day' is the only choice.

I like the Xperia Play, but I can't remember a screen that hates sunlight more. Finding obscure geek stores in the CBD with Google Maps was annoying enough.

Was a pretty day to be exploring Melbourne though.

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

Footy was awesome. Almost Carlton, almost.

Easy win for Geelong next week....

I dunno, West Coast played pretty well. Good goal scoring at the start. Decent positioning on the ground. A hell of a lot better than Sydney or Saints[] were. I think it could be close.
