Hawt Keyboards, Controllers, Consoles, and Digital Death (NEW GAMING THREADZ)

[Domon]

welp, i couldnt even navigate my way out of the intro. Not because its hard, but because its the shittiest pc port ive ever seen. Theres no option to change your controls, and the only instructions it gives you are in xbox controls.

wsad doestn work, mouse doesnt do anything but attack, arrow keys dont work. Keyboard mashing doesnt work.

oh, and it looks like a muddy pile of shit. Apparently no matter what resolution you set, it renders at 1024x768.

I should note that this game is less than a year old.

He already mentioned in an early post it was Dark Souls PC port.

Isnt that the game where you die every 30 seconds or so?

GOG is having its No DRM Summer sale until July 5th. This includes NWN2 for 9.99 for those that want to play the BG 1 mod.

Microsoft has reversed their used game and DRM policies. Stay tuned for more changes.

BTW, I called this in this thread, but am too lazy to find it. I believe my comment was that a couple weeks after E3, they would change all this. FWIW, I think this is a mistake. The Steam route, where its locked to your account, was the way to go.

There has to be a happy medium, where it more closely resembles steam. But we'll probably never get it now. This is another case of people really not knowing what they want (and in all fairness, MS did a shitty job of selling the model). Thanks internet.

Way to go, emofags.

I'm sure obese neckbeards everywhere are feverishly exclaiming on Facebook how they claimed victory today.

So, I found where I posted I got confirmation of my MYO pre-order

http://www.uselessforums.com/showth...13-right-here!&p=950127&viewfull=1#post950127

Yet, I can't find a damn record of it in my email anywhere, meaning I don't have the order number, meaning I'm now going on trust and faith that my pre-order survived whatever IT infrastructure they built to track such things.

whereas I never got through the preorder process. It quit out

I'm seriously looking forward to giving a presentation and using this stealth mode to completely take the audiences mind off whatever I'm saying and having them wonder wtf I'm using to move the powerpoints around with just hand gestures.

I doubt I'm ever going to buy a "gaming rig" again. My PC is just a really powerful Facebook machine these days.

i keep thinking about building a new rig... but that's kind of a big investment just to play a couple games.
