[A Zombie Riot]

There one thing I hate very much in Bioshock... FORGETTING TO SAVE.

Just went to see Sander Cohen and complete his masterpiece... had 2/4 done, and... oh hey bouncer...WAIT, WHY ARE YOU MAD AT ME, I NEVER SHO- *dies*

*Title screen*

*Looks around...*

"DAMMIT. Well that was about an hour of playing gone..."

*Shuts off Xbox 360*


I see your evil ways, April Fools Day. Making me think I saved at a certain point, but did not. FOOLING ME IN VIDEO GAMES IS NOT COOL.

Oh man, beaten Bioshock Infinite 3 times now and only 1 achievement away from beating fully completing it. This game, man, this game. So frikkin' good. Now gonna go through again for a forth time.

@A Zombie Riot, funny because the saving in Bioshock Infinite is terrible. No ability to manually save has caused some serious problems amongst the community. I've already had that problem on my first playthrough of getting around 45 to 60 minutes in only to find it didn't save. Stupid.

[A Zombie Riot]

Yeah, I heard that it uses a checkpoint system. Dumb. I hope that they can fix that, because I can see that being a huge problem on Hard or even 1999 Mode.

I'm on my third playthrough of Bioshock Infinite. I'm not the kind of guy who obsesses over getting all the achievements in a game, but I'm thinking of doing it with Infinite. I just want to get the most out of it before my focus inevitably shifts to some other game.

Today, I realised that almost all of the Resident Evil game end the same way.

Final boss you can't do crap to.

Timer.

Someone throws you a rocket launcher.

BOOM.

Done.

Have you also noticed that in every single game an aircraft ends up failing you, just crashes down or something happens to the pilot?

And have you noticed that (at least in the first ones) when you kill any zombie, you get out of the room and get back in, the re-dead bodies are gone? What happened?
Is there someone that follows you and take away the bodies from your path when you aren't looking or what?

That's not really that big of a deal, lots of games do this. It's because having these bodies stay there for all eternity is a memory issue. The game runs smoother when it doesn't need to remember the position of all dead bodies.

Back when I was a kid I used to think the zombies just stood up and walked away but now I know better.

John Madden, John Madden, John Madden !

Yes, I knew that. Just wanted to make a little joke with that. That remembers me when I played Silent Hill (PSX), the times the game slowed down, and you knew that it was charging 'something'. That were the scariest moments.

So yesterday, Square Enix turned ten years old. I would make a joke about the company, but it would be too easy.

[Antwan]

I guess you could say they were RAD at RACING against the competition all these years!

^where's the "dislike" button for bad puns?


I just learned that there was DLC for Valkyria Chronicles. How did I not know this!? The game is five years old!

Extended gameplay ahoy!

Aw man, I was excited for 1313. Come on, Disney, what are you doing?
