  1. My thoughts: I don't really care either way, but I do find it funny that people will now be able to raise faction for real world money. Which is on the same level as buying gear for real world money.
  2. Thoughts on this? https://www.vg247.com/2016/01/25/bungie-sell-destiny-ammo-packs-real-money-microtransactions/ Grinding for purple ammo packs will soon become a thing of the past, if VG247 sources are to be believed. Bungie is to sell Destiny ammo packs for real money, a source familiar with the matter has confirmed to VG247. It’s as yet unknown when the feature will be added to the online shooter. While it was reaffirmed today, the rumour has existed since early last year alongside claims that no raid would be included in House of Wolves and micro-transactions would be added to Destiny. Both these updates proved to be correct. Micro-transactions first appeared in Destiny in October, 2015, when players were given the option to buy a new currency, Silver, with real money. Currently, the only pieces of content available for purchase are emotes and Sparrow items from Eververse, a vendor in Destiny’s Tower social hub. The sale of ammo packs will mark a significant step forward for Bungie and Activision’s approach to Destiny’s micro-transactions, as it will have a direct, if limited, effect on gameplay. You’ll soon be able to spend your Silver on purple synths, apparently. The most sought after ammo pack by far is Heavy Ammo Synthesis, as Heavy is essential for high-level PvE activities such as raiding. There are currently only three ways to acquire Heavy packs: you can buy them from the Tower gunsmith, Banshee-44, for 950 Glimmer, Destiny’s “free” in-game currency; exotic vendor Xur sells packs of three for one Strange Coin; and Variks, the Reef’s Prison of Elders handler, sells them for 250 Glimmer and a pack of Ether Seeds. Obviously, play is the only way to build up enough resources to afford the packs at the moment, so adding this specific micro-transaction will circumnavigate the need to spend time in-game to raid. It’s unknown how much the packs will cost. The current cost of Silver is thus: 500 Silver – $4.99/£3.99/€4.99 1000 Silver (+100 bonus Silver) – $9.99/£7.99/€9.99 2000 Silver (+300 bonus Silver) – $19.99/£15.99/€19.99 5,000 Silver (+800 Silver) – $49.99/£39.99/€49.99 The prospect of being able to pay for ammo with real money is unlikely to sit well with much of the Destiny community, which is currently up in arms about a final admission that PvP matchmaking was switched to a skill-based system with The Taken King last September.
  3. Never played this or ESO on console. Only PC, you guys are far braver than I am
  4. Are you guys playing this all on Console?
  5. Here: https://rift.trionworlds.com/ I will dig out the old thread we had about ESO, and get my thoughts from there. I will say this real fast, I play Skyrim because ESO was such a let down. It just happens to be a better game.
  6. ESO is horrible though. I tried it again in November and it was still shit Hell, Like I told Dave earlier, stick with FFXIV
  7. League of Legends is not an RPG. I was in FFXIV for about a month, and then my trial ran out. I actually enjoyed it quite a bit. It was far more entertaining than WoW. Sadly I can't really justify 14.99 a month, or I would be in it. (And honestly I am more in an EVE frame of mind these days. IDK why)
  8. I think I still have access to this game. I should check it out again. Sadly I remember not really enjoying it last time I was in it.
  9. I might log in and grab a few, thanks for the heads up!
  10. Oh shit doc, that aint right...... see you guys in hell
  11. enjoy! (Warning: Its pretty big!(Thats what she said!))
  12. The guy what made it has a website, I need to hit it as he apparently makes a ton of "trailers" like this
  13. This looks like a ton of fun. Doubt it is a real movie, but if it was, I would watch it. If it was a video game, I would play it.
  14. Also, Dark Cloud 2 is coming out next week I think. I hooked up and hunted all my old PS2 components a few months ago, just to be able to play it again.
  15. Kewl! Guess I will step away from skyrim
  16. Buy the game on PC
  17. The new Hitman from Io Interactive is now a “fully episodic AAA game,” publisher Square Enix announced. Previously, the game was announced to launch with three locations— Paris, Sapienza, and Marrakesh—with additional locations Thailand to follow in April, the U.S. in May, and Japan in June. Here’s the new release schedule: March 11 – Prologue Mission and a Paris, France location. April – Sapienza, Italy location. May – Marrakesh, Morocco location. Afterward – Monthly content updates, including three additional locations; Thailand, the US and Japan until the season concludes in Japan later in 2016. With weekly live events and additional planned content in between the monthly updates. Pricing is as follows: Intro Pack ($15) – Contains Prologue and Paris levels. New Locations ($10) – Each new location will be released as a $10 add-on to the Intro Pack. Upgrade Pack ($50) – Users who buy the Intro Pack can upgrade to the Full Experience through this package. Full Experience ($60) – Includes all of this year’s content as it’s released, and guarantees them not to miss any live or bonus content. A disc version of the game will ship at the end of 2016. The beta for the PlayStation 4 and PC versions of Hitman will begin on February 12 and 19, respectively. Pre-orders for the Intro Pack or Full Experience will guarantee access to the beta. Update 3:15 p.m.: A collector’s edition of Hitman has appeared on Amazon (PS4,Xbox One) for release by the end of the year. For $139.99, it will include: Hitman Game and Collector’s Box – Get your copy of Hitman in this premium collector’s edition box Agent 47 “Chessmaster” Statue – A massive 10″ statue of Agent 47, considering his next checkmate Tie & Clip Set – The iconic tie of Agent 47 and logo-emblazoned clip for going out in Hitman style Art book – A hardcover art book with 60 pages that take you deeper into the World of Assassination Digital Game Download – Contains your code to download your copy of the full game The Square Enix press release labels the retail release as a “disc version,” so the inclusion of a digital game download code in the collector’s edition is confusing.
