    Iwata could have done a port of Arkham Knight to the PC that actually worked over a long weekend.

    Went back to Bloodbourne last night after taking a long break from it since the load times were so annoying. Really glad to see the huge improvement in them, it makes the game so much better. However in the meantime I was playing Dark Souls 2 on PC and it's really a shock going back to playing a Souls game at 30 fps and not even a constant 30 fps. The frame pacing issue as well is very noticable. I'm sure I'll get used to it but it's really annoying me now even for something stupid like turning the camera!

    Just back from seeing AntMan, great film, its up there with Avengers1 and Guardians for me. I know not everyone likes the Marvel films, but if you do you wont be disappointed.

    Cool. Loved Avengers & Guardians too, much catch AntMan sometime. Saw the trailer for Deadpool yesterday, not sure what to make of it. Got me wondering if they'll ever do a sequel to The Green Lantern (hopefully not says Johnny Ultimate!). Or would that character ever make his way into an Avengers film instead?

    Green Lantern is DC I think so will never be in avengers, they announced a green lantern Corp. Film at Comic Con the weekend.

    I was reluctant to pick one up. Didn't think I'd have the time for it. 2 weeks later I'm 72% of the way through Arkham Knight and trying to get all of the riddler trophies to finish the game...

    Do gamestop not show the trade in value of games on their website like cex?

    I could have sworn they did before.

    Not the trade in value but they have always shown their second hand prizes.

    Ahhh, this game was a blast.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,183 ✭✭✭✭Atavan-Halen


    Yeah I actually enjoyed that sega rally. A little difficult but was a good bit of fun.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,753 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    That did OK, and they rereleased it on PSN and XBL I think more recently.
    The Japan only Sega Rally 2005 that came out only for the PS2 is pretty good.

    The version that was released on download was the one that was based on Sega Rally 3. It's not the same as the physical game. Plus, it's since been pulled from sale because of expired licences and all that.

    And I'm not really sure if it did really do okay. Afterall, it came out the same week as Halo 3 did, and you know you can't win against a juggernaut like that.

    Any body got a spare DS charger?

    There's some Warhammer games up on GoG today. Must look at them, Shadow of the Horned Rat is an absolute classic (PC version not the PS1 version) and the sequel was even better although not sure that is up yet.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,695 ✭✭✭DinoRex


    Not a fan of the Warhammer universe... but I picked up the Forbidden Stars board game recently. It's good fun!

    Seems it's only shadow of the horned rat up there but the sequel can't be far behind. Not a fan of the universe but those two games were great. Played like a micro RTS battle and units had perma death and a morale system so you had to look after them.

    Playing a bit of Freedom Planet there, and it's probably the best Sonic game ever made - and I include classic Megadrive Sonic in that :pac:

    How much do you think I should list a modded JTAG'd Xbox 360 with one controller with a 1 TB hdd half full of about 40 decent games, loads of Arcade stuff, emulators and thousands of roms etc? Selling on donedeal as Adverts always pull it but there are no bidding wars on DD so need to fix a price...

    I'd imagine Adverts pull it because, if you describe it like you have here, it's clearly filled with pirated material. If you just list it as a Jtagged console, & sell it for what it is (you can't claim additional value based on the software on it, same with bartops/arcade cabs etc), you should move it easily enough on Adverts. In saying that, the value of these seems to have dropped with diminishing demand these days.
