    I hate Steam Mac support.
    I don't even bother with it anymore. It would look so good on a new imac, but new games are like 1 in a 100.

    I currently have a SL102 Sorcerer (64 INT) but still having a hard time with the first guardian in the dlc (he's simply killing me by far every time - while I managed to enter with a SL 192 warrior on NG++++ :twisted: ).
    Also picked up Persona 4 on PSV... WOW!

    Edit: do you mean that the first guardian IS NOT one of two bosses you're mentioning?! Lol

    Yeah, thats a 2012 macpro and it should run stuff fine, but there is just no market for it or developers dont want to bother with it. So im stuck playing crappy games or the ones I buy on steam I have to DL and play at the PC rooms.

    And I get it and all, PC is just the norm and you can bootcamp anyways, its just that its annoying.

    Witcher 2 plays just fine and the game is great, I dont see why more Developers give macs a shot.

    Still in the same topic, I have XCOM and cant play it as often and it kills me. Life would be 10 times better if they just released it in mac (yeah im dreaming I know)

    Haha, no, he is just a puppy compared to those two . . . but he almost made me throw the controller into the TV, too. Do not forget to go back into this area later in the game - you will have a great time ;)

    Killer is Dead is gonna be awesome. No More Heroes 2 was a disappointment, but Killer 7 and No More Heroes are 2 of the greatest games ever.

    Bootcamp can get real bad real quick. You probably have to have a workhorse of a Mac for it to work properly. I just want to play Hotline Miami.

    Whoops: Sorry for the double post

    Wow, this looks good. NMH 1&2 were a blast. I never got to play killer7. Lollipop chainsaw and the other game he made (something damned?) I passed on but I'll def check this out...


    However, in 3 weeks I will be completely wrapped up in dead space 3. I loved the first two, Esp #2 so much. I'm even excited for co op play, which is weird or me.

    Im right there with you, Dead Space was the only thing this last decade that didnt make me lose faith on survival horror.

    Silent Hill really needs to get a decent makeover or something, RE is long dead, haha.

    The funny thing for me is, generally speaking I am not a fan of survival horror games at all. I think the last horror game I played was the first resident evil, which I hated, more from a technical standpoint. But someone suggested DS2 to me after I got my ps3 and told me it reminded them of the movie "Event Horizon" so tried it. Then I played through it and got part 1 and dead space: extraction and played through them. Then went back to part 2 and replayed it literally about 7 times. Best game I've played since soul caliber 2 and super metroid. :)

    Siren for PS3 is great as long as you download all the episodes at once. There were some really graphic and "scary" scenes.

    RE is terrible after 4 and never really scary. RE:make for Gamecube was great though.

    That's what always sucked about RE to me. 4 was my favorite. It got everything right. I hated RE controls UNTIL 4. I played them, and kind of enjoyed them, but HATED the controls which took away so much of the potential fun. Then 4 nailed it and I thought "YEA! They're all going to rule from now on!" then somehow they fucked up. Bleh. I played 5 for like an hour and re-sold it. I hate that game.

    Super Mario RPG has to be one of my favorite games of all time, worth adding to the list once you beat Chrono.

    Also, I hated RE 4's game mechanics when the previews came out and then played it and realized that it was just the way for the franchise to go. It just made so much sense and it was a lot of fun to play. That said, I love all the previous REs from 1 to 3 and everything in between, it just gave it more urgency when you couldn't see where enemies were and all that.

    Im playing frozen synapse, its a great game and super fun to play, plus dirt cheap. Worth a go if one is into strategy games.

    DMC
    Devil May Cry reboot. Very good first impression. Awesome graphics, nice monster design und a challenging fighting system. Medium difficulty is quite challenging also.

    I completed Kid Icarus: Uprising today, for the 3DS.
    Its the best handheld game I have ever played, and the best game I've played in 5 years (Metal Gear Solid 4).
    I'm tempted to write a blog-essay review on how much I love this game.
    But in short, I guess the best way to sum it up is this:
    Its StarFox 64 (action) meets Sin & Punishment (gameplay) meets Kingdom Hearts (production), and a sprinkle of Super Smash Bros (extras).
    Its the best game that never came out on the Wii.
    This is the closest I'll get to playing Space Harriers sequel, Planet Harriers, and probably the closest thing I'll get to a Starfox 64 2.

    Best soundtrack, which included the guys who did the music for Killer7, Smash Bros AND Streets of Rage.

    Controls hurt my hand. But my stance on that is: Sometimes you have to go through pain to enjoy something really good. In this case, I would almost say perfection.

    Kid Icarus: Uprising is the reason I started to play games in the first place.
    Blue skies, constant action, hi-scores, boss battles, all the while being simple and challenging.
    Its story was great, hilarious, exhilarating, and with the constant fourth-wall breaking writing, twist and turns, and one of the most epic climaxes I've seen in awhile- there was nothing else I could do but to smile all the way to the ending credits.

    If you got a 3DS, and love the games of yesteryear, you owe it to yourself to play this game!

    Moving on...

    Super Hexagon is the best mobile game. Even if I can only last 15secs on it.

    Will begin on Resident Evil: Revelations next.

    And tempted to start a Dragon Quest soon. Never played any of them, and in the mood for an RPG.

    *moves cube around for 5mins* I'm sooo confused!!! What do I do?!
    I feel like the answers of the universe will be unlocked if I somehow solve this!

    Are there any other controls besides the arrow keys to move?

    Nope, just the arrows. I cannot give you even the slightest hint cause that would give it away . . . sorry :razz:
    But desperation was eventually helping me solve it ;)

    I'm holding down the arrows, and its warping into multiples and messing with my eyes, and the other blocks look like they disappear.
    Damn it, what's going on?!!?
