I think VC4 will be a bit different. VC1 launched at a time when we still didnt get "anything" compared to now. Not saying the "drought" was there, but people still were a bit starved for new japanese content.
And it launched with a great price.

Thanks, in the ps now page nothing indicates that they have ds3 support.
But this varely works on steam for me, we'll see if the push a update.
Guh, it's gonna be a chore finishing ELEX before MHW drops :\
Then I've got Yakuza 0 to look forward to after that. Those game will probably last me until Cyberpunk, honestly.

I was looking through Fallout 4 mods to see what I wanted to have before my next playthrough, and there's a mod that replaces Shaun with a giant Butterfinger candy bar. I'm not gonna install it because it's ridiculous, but I did favorite it and laugh at it for like five minutes.
The 1 + 2 pack is a bit cheaper on uk.gamesplanet.com (and you can get an extra 3% discount if you follow the Steam group "for UNCUT!", and link your Steam account to Gamesplanet).
Eh I think I'll settle for humble; I'ma need that humble credit to get me Biomutant or Darksiders 3 for cheaper :V
Finally bit the bullet and ended up getting a new PC this week. After about 8 years, I figured it was time to retire my old system to media center duties.
While I've always built PC's in the past, Best Buy was having a pretty good deal on the Alienware Aurora R7 to compete with Prime Day. i7 8700, 16GB DDR4 and a GTX 1080 for $1299. I don't think I could've built a comparable PC for cheaper, so I went for it. So far I'm pretty impressed, except for the shitty 2TB 7200 w/ 16GB Intel Optane storage. Picked up Forza Horizon 3 and I'm able to play at 4K w/ Ultra settings on my TV comfortably.
Question for you all. Is it worthwhile to invest in a M.2 SSD if I have an older SATA SSD lying around? I'm tempted but I never really had a problem with the speed of my SATA SSD's before, so I'm curious what the actual perceivable benefit would be.

Watching the trailer reminded me more of nuclear throne tbh, but that isn't a bad thing. Thanks again for the recommendations.
Too bad, but I imagine it's a tough job to keep updating it whenever Valve changes the site. I'm interested in working on the local version, if it gets out on GitHub.
I have an M.2, and it's neat just to have one at the very least. As you say, SSDs are fast enough that even a significant speed increase means only a few seconds. FYI, 256gb M.2s are about the same speed as SATA, it's only when you go 500gb+ that the density makes the drives faster than SSD, at least with the Samsung drives from a year back.

This and Yakuza for me in AugustPhantom Doctrine next month!
Oh, and Two Point Hospital
It is pretty pricey compared to Hard West which has made me think a little about it but it is listed on GMG (not available for pre-order) so a 25% off voucher can't be far away.
I backed this on Kickstarter. It's looks good. I hope it performs well
Thank you JS for all your hard work and devote to the community.
I finally did it and bought a new PC. I can finally play games from this decade. I got an i5-8600k and a GTX 1080 so I can handle pretty much anything.
Please list me some showpiece games so I can feel great about my purchase.
Please list me some showpiece games so I can feel great about my purchase.
GTAV, The Metro Games, Witcher 3, The Last 3 Ass Creed Games, Arkham Knight (It's completely fixed now and stunning), Hellblade, Rise of the Tomb Raider etc...
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided
Witcher 3
Mafia 3
Batman: Arkham Knight
The Crysis games and the Metro games are still pretty impressive by most standards
The new Tomb Raider games are still fancy
Hitman 2016 ain't bad
Doom, the Wolfenstein's, Prey, the Dishonored's all have their moments.
After that, I'm thinking of stuff like ABZU or modded Skyrim and Fallout. Stlyized or highly moddable. Or something like Total War: Warhammer if you want to really get something of the new CPU.
As a final thought, I'd say the thing that impressed me the most out of all that above is Batman: Arkham Knight. That was a very "next-gen" experience, particularly with zooming on character faces and the like.
Oh, you could try swinging Star Citizen too. Not sure how great you'd feel about that though.
jshackles is a legend. Hopefully he is able to make steady money, enjoy life and be rewarded.
I'd say heavily modded Skyrim but that will take 2 weeks to get the mods sorted....and another week to make sure everything is running right.
Phantom Doctrine next month!
But... Monster Hunter!
September 26, seriously? That's like one day after Valkyria 4.

Thanks, some definite good ones on there. It's funny, I had kind of forgotten about some of those because I just basically thought, "looks good, can't play them though."
The AI in PES BAL is such shit. The coaching AI is even worse. At 65 minutes if a league match is tied it goes to all out defense. In a knockout game it goes to all out attack. This wouldn't be so bad if the team AIs are matched but they are not so they get through ball breakaways and I got a bunch of guys just blindly firing loose balls up field.
And it doesn't take two-leg ties into account. You win on road 1-0 and are tied 1-1 at home and all the sudden all out attack at minute 65 WTF.

toukiden continues to be a good companion while i watch league games, i thought i would be over it after completing the story, specially cos there doesn't seem to be much of a point to completing these missions and you can mostly afk and your party will take care of the monsters. i don't even know how to complete the two missions i have left since they barely have any indication of what to do, but i guess mashing buttons while i watch league keeps me awake and i'm so tired lately that if i'm not like actively doing something for a second i just go unconscious
also progressed a little bit more in battle chef brigade. still really enjoying the story and the match 3 gameplay, tho i feel this game has that usual problem of having its complex mechanics not feel rewarding enough to explore beyond the very basics. specially since there's a time limit you got to juggle with, i just feel like playing it safe and using simple mechanics as much as possible.
anyways, i still love the tone of this game, it's just so positive and nice
Ten dollerydoos for Wolf II hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Does anyone know what is causing this and how to stop it from happening?
That's almost USD 7.50 but that's not a digital code right?
This is much better.
Man, this game holds up so well, and not just visually, it's a fantastic game through and through. The Zodiac Age version cements it as one of the best jrpgs for me.
That does look good on him. Wonder if there is a more colorful variant though ;P

No, I have one of those errors every time I shut down Windows - no clue what it's saying. You could try looking at Event Viewer, seeing if there's something listed in the default view (where it lists Critical, Error, Warning, etc.) for the time that popped, but no guarantee it'll show up. :/
Lots of mods to choose from, I'll be switching it up as I play, same for the other characters.
Been playing through Double Dragon Neon and for the most part I like it. However I can't help but feel that there is something off about th controls: Namely the Crouch button. Direction+Crouch will initiate a roll, but it has a pretty slow start up visually, and while you will pull off a dodge to avoid attacks it looks and animates pretty sluggishly.
Furthermore there are times when the game seems to register an attack command pre-emptively: When you stun an enemy pressing Punch will knock them up, at times even when I just want to knock them up with a Punch, the game will think I entered the Punch button twice so a 2nd attack comes out that won't let me continue juggling enemies launched into the air.
I'm almost half way through but the 2nd Countryside stage is tough and I'm gonna do a little grinding for tapes and try it again soon.
DD Neon has a wonderful sountrack though, and I decided to buy it off Bandcamp
https://virt.bandcamp.com/album/double-dragon-neon
Will also play some DuckTales Remastered. My lappy has an Intel HD card so I can play the game using it to avoid a certain game breaking bug.
If you don't mind fighting games, check out the Samurai Spirits/Sho(w)down series

I don't think the Musou series are what you'd be looking for in a Samurai-themed game though :X
