Apparently 2 weeks ago a former RARE employee tweeted about how back when Microsoft bought RARE and went to their studio, one of the execs saw a Donkey Kong poster and thought they now owned Donkey Kong.  Tongue

Thank f*** that kid has a lawyer that knows what he's doing.  That entire case is absolutely ridiculous.

Land of the free alright.

So this is everyone's reminder that Planetside 2 will be coming to the PS4.

I have it on PC and it runs like balls due to an incredibly poorly optimized engine, but I suspect that won't be the case on PS4.  And besides, it's free to play (does have microtransactions, but like TF2 the default weapons are solid enough).  You can unlock everything in the game, it just takes longer.

Anyway, when it runs well it's a fantastic game.  It's got huge battles the likes of which you've never seen (2,000 people in one battle, though you rarely see it capped like that as the action is usually taking place on multiple fronts).  The game world would probably take four hours in real time to traverse on foot.  It's got snipers, infantry, heavy infantry, engineers, medics, squads, platoons, companies, outfits, three factions, tanks, quad bikes, transport aircraft, combat aircraft, and tons of customization for your character's loadout.  It's basically Bad Company 2 on steroids with a sci-fi feel.

With all the hype around Destiny I just didn't want us to forget about this game.  Since it's free to play I could see a lot of us getting it and having an absolute blast.

If I were to buy Dungeons and Dragons: Chronicles of Mystara on Steam, would any of you guys play it with me?

It's a really good game. The combat is suprisingly smooth for an oldschool beat em up. The aesthetic is awesome, and the beat em up/rpg cross over is really clever (beat em ups have a huge emphasis on preparing and conserving items, which is also what dungeon crawlers are about. Not to mention the party game aspect of playing them 4 players is very Dnd).


"Dungeons & Dragons: Tower of Doom is a side-scrolling beat-'em-up by Capcom originally released for the arcades in 1994 which ran on the CP-System II hardware. It was followed by a single sequel in 1996 titled Dungeons & Dragons: Shadow over Mystara, along with a compilation of both games titled Dungeons & Dragons Collection released exclusively in Japan for the Sega Saturn in 1999. They are notable for their unique blending of the Dungeons & Dragons game system and Capcom's then-popular 2D scrolling-brawler engine, put in the limelight by Final Fight back in 1989. The duology is also respected for Capcom's showing their work in regards to using the RPG system's lore and combat rules, and for providing a certain amount of depth to the beat 'em up genre that wasn't previously explored: Characters have multiple special moves, can use items and magic, can collect money to spend in towns, can equip weapons and armor, and can even choose branching paths as well as look for hidden areas, of which there are many"

By the way Squire, I saw some of those EVO finals on [spoiler]ign[/spoiler]. Tekken Tag Tournament 3 was pretty damn good. I got a little bit annoyed at the announcers turning it into a Korea vs US thing. Do contestants represent their countries in this tournament? I could tell they weren't too happy when the Korean guy won. They didn't sound nearly as enthused.

So the Guardian wrote an article detailing how Microsoft helped the NSA spy using Skype:

http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2013/jul/11/microsoft-nsa-collaboration-user-data

Microsoft helped the NSA to circumvent its encryption to address concerns that the agency would be unable to intercept web chats on the new Outlook.com portal;

• The agency already had pre-encryption stage access to email on Outlook.com, including Hotmail;

• The company worked with the FBI this year to allow the NSA easier access via Prism to its cloud storage service SkyDrive, which now has more than 250 million users worldwide;

• Microsoft also worked with the FBI's Data Intercept Unit to "understand" potential issues with a feature in Outlook.com that allows users to create email aliases;

• In July last year, nine months after Microsoft bought Skype, the NSA boasted that a new capability had tripled the amount of Skype video calls being collected through Prism;

Eh, it's just to generate hype. Whatever it takes to give people reason to root for peeps. I remember last year at the King of Fighters 13 finals, the combatants were a korean guy and a returning mexican champ. Mexico has a history of winning at hat game constantly, so people were surprised when the korean guy won.

Myself, I generally tend to root for whoever picks my favorite characters, regardless of region. For example, I was rooting heavily for a Japanese Skullgirls player named Inuchiyo this time because he was playing my two favorite characters (ms fortune and fillia) with my favorite color pallete.


(his fight 30 seconds into the video, names are at the top.)

Of course, there are also specific big name players who I tend to root for regardless of who they pick. Yipes, Mike Z, Justin Wong, etc.

They'd kill themselves if they did.  Which wouldn't be the worst thing in the world.

^ Plus, their games aren't even worth that much. I mean who would want to buy an $80 Madden game every year?
