@Acksaw Our usual Game Nights are Tues-Thurs-Sat, check out the forum calendar... here

A huge thank you to our patrons, who donated, played alongside us, and were just as integral to the events success as any of us. I was really set aback by the level of dedication you all had to helping us help others! Not that I should ever expect less from such an exemplary cast of hooligans such as yourselves!

SOLD! Great review chief.

Evolve... what can I say, it's a polarizing title. I won't be lining up at midnight, that's for sure. The Escapists looks interesting yet the price seems a tad higher than I'd have expected.

Sighs in a fan-man fashion

Shrieks in school-girl fashion

I do believe we've found the culprit, 2 save files when loading Ep. 2? Seems to be the common variable from what I'm reading here and elsewhere.

@PeTitosaurus I did, I did. Just looking for common factors among those with issues and those without. @stylon Did you have 2 saves when loading it up with Ch.2 installed?

@Billbob439 Welcome to the site dude, glad to see you here!

Be sure to check out the forums daily as we'll have many Game Nights like todays each week!

Billbob in the hizzo, yizzo!

Same here... ugh, that sort of ruined the "other outcome" of episode one. @PeTitosaurus did you have two save files when starting ep. 2?

I've had the disconnect issue but only pre last update, make sure your headphones are connected while updating. It's only ever happened as a minor silence in audio.

@Utena-mobile First off, welcome to pX! Most of the real issues with the MCC are fixed now, it's all about stability and matchmaking with this update. You can easily have a great time with the game as it is now.

The fourth amigo (yeah, I said it) had family issues this week, yet he's playing New Super Mario Bros. U and Injustice: Gods among us... mostly. Oh, there's also this thing about DARBing? The fourth amigo will certainly be doing that this weekend!

Cheers everyone!

@midnafanboy
I actually remember attempting various random schemes that my friends claimed to be the path to Ermac, it was some crazy one like "get to and beat Reptile FLAWLESS!" Ok, that didn't work... "Do so using Scorpion without a GET OVER HERE" Ok, that didn't work. "Let's pool our monies and buy a code book from Blockbuster!" Ok, that was a waste of monies. We were all fairly disappointed, then and ten years later.

Greatest fib in MK history, there was NO Ermac in MK... thanks for wasting hours of my childhood, rumors!

This looks like it could be fun, I certainly hope it's nothing like Red Steel.

I must say that I love @Anthinator's zombie, he really is a cute little un-dead character!

I just realized that mine is clearly Andy Warhol, about two weeks post-infection.

@JaredJ

He's insane, you have to spam punch/kick and be crazy careful, if memory serves me. I'd have to say that Reptile himself is one of the greatest "easter eggs" in gaming. Yoshi in SM64 comes close, but not close enough. Beating Reptile was like winning Olympic gold.

State Of Decay is my zombie game, nothing else has even come close. Now that it's been dated all I must do is wait, impatiently.

I will certainly be DARB'ing as part of the pX #IDARB team that Tyler Treese is setting up!

I remember sitting in a living room with my schoolyard chums day in and out, attempting to reach Reptile in MK. It was a serious feat before the internet was what it is now. We were ultimately stoked when someone would get to him but he always won.

I BELIEVE we were playing on a Genesis, my memory isn't what it once was.

@Vincent294 Price point is a huge dealbreaker here, if I had $500 in hand and went about attempting to build a rig that compared in any way to what the Xbox One has under the hood, I'd be waiting a few years. I might spend that simply on a GPU?

@JaxonH @shingi_70

So, hypothetically speaking... were we to be planning a KI tourney amongst staff and readers of the site. Keeping in mind that this is an absolute rumor, it's certainly possibly in the cards? Yet still, complete hearsay. I'm thinking you guys would be interested?

@DRL LOL Space Munk, that is so totally Doug! I must re-watch the series, Skeeter and the gang... it's been a decade, at least.

@TylerTreese It's not just "a" game series... it is THE game series! Get buddies to play alongside you in campaign (fiiine, if I must).

I'm down for Halo, anytime!

"Doug... duh... duh... duh... Doug!"

@DRL What game is Doug getting with his "Super Pretendo"?

I can't make the text out and forget.

@Mr_Stuey I really need to play ALBW but have promised myself I'd finish ALTTP first and I'm NEARLY done!

@TylerTreese You're playing... Halo? This weekend? That's gotta be a series of typo's? "I have no interest in Halo" - T.T (Sunshine)

Frank seems like a more comical version of his original. Then again it's been an entire console gen since I've played the original.

@JaxonH @Sir_JBizzle

I own a Surface Pro 2&3 (I was thinking of selling the 2... but now.)

They're great machines, I got a great deal on the 3 and they both have merits. For streaming XB1, I think the 2 will become my device of choice as the resolution matches up perfectly. For art or work, the 3 is a more sensible option. They're still both great computers, give me a surface over a laptop any day. (even an RT should support this new function)

@Gamer83

Oh but they're such different experiences! I was amazed at the sense of actual FEAR of loosing a character every time I played. The strategy involved at every given moment, and fact that EVERY decision or even mistake effects the organic world. DR:3 is a hack n' slash in comparison, and that's cool as well, I enjoyed it.

@EternalDragonX
Phil went to Steam and I believed he launched the game from there in the conference. Games For Windows is dead, for all I know. I think we'll see a similar marketplace across platforms but if they had have meant to revive Games For Windows, I don't know why he'd have used Steam?

@DRL In the yard! Didn't even think of that. Oh, the possibilities.

Yup, I've been waiting and wondering about this since launch as technically it seems quite a simple feat. Surface + Controller = WiiU with better range

Discounted for last-gen owners, all DLC included, extra playable. Bonus, bonus, and bonus!

A massive improvement over the initial totalitarian position.

"Pre-Order now to fight as Goro!"

Really?... Pre-orders, begrudgingly

We saw a load of characters in that trailer! I couldn't even keep track.

H5:B3TA Game Night and stream this Saturday @ https://www.purexbox.com/forums/halo/halo_5_beta_game_together

Just as @DRL said, this game really did fit in between Perfect Dark and Red Faction 2 for amazing local play with bots. My brother and I would play for hours and hours.

Here in Canadaland they are ONLY suggestions until the M or 18+ rating is reached and even then it's no law that a parent can't buy their 10y/o GTA? It's only between the seller and purchaser that the ESRB ratings have legal limitations and implications.

@stylon Well said, I could go without the pizza anyways. I think I'll pick it up as well. Thanks @crippyd!

@stylon

I don't think they licensed "Straight Outta Compton" or anything like that
I've got a deep founded love for 90's RAP, Hip-Hop on the other hand.
The review is in process so Super-Ken can answer all of our questions soon.

Lmao "butt-cloth". I'll be giggling at that one for a while.

Why would they DROP an IP? How much was it seriously costing them to keep Blix on the back-burn. He could have made a glorious re-envisioned comeback.

I know what that notation "says" but I don't know the Banjo + Kazooie music all that well. It's also only the first quarter second that we can see. Teases!

Finally, a game that encourages young ones to stick their hands in their mouths while gaming. Start learning young, I say.

Can the IR camera option be used while streaming? I've never tried that. I think that if I did an Alien run you'd hear more expletives than yelping. It might be kind of funny with the motion tracking and environmental sound monitor features on.

I'm very close to playing with virtual monkeys, but something behind me (a stack of games) is saying "No! No monkeys for you Head, even at this price."

I should likely listen to the in-animate stack.

@crippyd Let me know what your first impressions are I don't believe anyone on staff made it to Styx but it looks interesting.

@Emanouel He was a prince? So Golden (Tartukan?) armour would befit him. I'd like to know what his Pops thought of the many times he's failed in MK. Maybe a dethroned Goro? Fighting to regain his honor.

@Emanouel He must live a long time, I'd love to see a grey Goro in his geriatric years.

Goro is back! Will Cassie Cage carry her fathers innate ability to groin-punch?
