As long as it's not called "Tron: the game". It's not that I would be like LOL LOST TEH GAME, but more of every-single-movie turned into a video game is called "<title>:the game".

Super Secret Area - Dead Ahead!

Quote from arkarian:

rip of mirror's edge? the entire point of mirror's edge is its first-person view; this looks totally different. more like a faster prince of persia or something.

It was aimed more at the flow. Prince of Persia and the like seem more platformy to me, whereas this seemed like the aim was flowing continuously toward your goal, leading me to think of Mirror's Edge.

Tron: Evolution

It doesn't take place within the film's storyline, either, whch is one of the main problems with film tie-ins.

So yeah, I found this trailer earlier today, and I'll let it do the talking:

Really makes me wish I could convince someone else in my house to play the first Portal.

Portal 2? No, not yet. Portal 1 was out in 07 I think.

Or was that a joke at the thought of the game being pretty much the same thing as the original?

Welp, the XIV open beta has convinced me to not even want to try XIV. It's almost impossible to play it with a mouse since they use a software mouse, so it lags like shit. From what I can tell, there is no way of knowing if someone has a quest for you or not, unless you go up to every single person and talk to them. The menu system is pretty bad, and I don't know if I just suck at how their combat system works or if you're supposed to time your attacks or something, but it seems pretty buggy.

It's a really really pretty game, but I'm gonna have to pass on it.

I'm no expert, but isn't the idea of a beta to see what works and what doesn't? Might these issues be fixed? Plus, these days, a game can be patched after release to fix any major problems.

considering that this has been going on since closed beta, chances are they aren't going to change. They haven't said anything about the software mouse issue, which is the biggest problem for me since it makes the game almost unplayable. If I had a 360 controller I'd use that instead. But other things like having no idea who gives out quests would mean either a lot of grinding the same mobs without getting exp from doing quests, or wasting a lot of time talking to ever NPC, or waiting for some sort of leveling guide that tells you which NPC to go to get the good quests and stuff.

But I'm sure the server lag, which may or may not be causing the combat bugs, will be fixed upon release. If they fix the mouse and the combat is fine, then I'll consider getting it again.

Welp my minecraft server decided to shit itself today after the update. Before the update, everything was fine, lots of people on and everything was happy (djy was playing on it too :3, for anyone that doesn't know he's liek 2OTALLY FAMUS). Anyhow, after the update my friend and I log in, play for about 15 seconds, and then get disconnected. Now, any time anyone tries to get on my server, they can play for about 15seconds-2minutes before they freeze, and get a black screen.

I made sure all my settings for the server were right, and double checked everything. I googled it, and found some other people who just recently started having this issue as well (past 3 days), so at least I know I'm not the only one. But it still really sucks since it was starting to get to be a popular server, and now it's down. And my server uptime has been demolished ;_;

Wanna know something funny?

I taught my 6 year old little sister how to play Super Mario World on the SNES today. I had NO idea it was the 25th anniversary, totally coincidental.

no D:

I meant it was awesome as well as Paper mario. Which is funny cause Sunshine is all about shooting water around at everything, and if you brought that concept into paper mario everything would dissolve.
