Me too.  tempted, but trying to rationalize. sweat.gif

Yea, and the problem is, i dont mind paying 20USD for Spec Ops, Bioshock 1 &2 which made it even difficult to resist. The worse thing is, i havent played Bioshock 1 and 2. I know, im slowpoke.

Need to pump my resist stats. Maybe get it from Auction House.

Isn't skyrim the fifth elder scroll? I think IV is morrowind, no?

I cant remember but all i know is he likes to go on and on, saying that all elder scrolls games are buggy.

Skyrim is probably one of the most stable games i have played on day 1.

I played it for 19 hrs only one ctd probably due to messing with mods, it is a fairly stable at this stage. Well comparing pirated version is surely unfair.. sometimes the 'cracked exe' introduce crashes, immortal scorpions or exploding bases.
*
I played the game for 100 hours plus, i only had 2 CTD and a couple of Daedric quest bugged out. Other than that, the game is very stable. Performance also gets better with patches, as i started out with 30 to 40 fps, but now, im getting around 60 fps.

I can buy Far Cry 3 without worrying too much. I really want to experience their storyline that is supposedly to be good.

They should just immoralised Lord Gaben in one way or the other. Screw virtual reality, lets immoralised Lord Gaben.

I dont want to see another Apple or Microsoft crumbling down after their visionary left.

Borderlands 2 is only good if you can play coop. The predecessor sucks as a single player game.

Well, i prefer not, due to my internet connection. To be honest, i kinda gave up multiplayer games.

Yeah. And the lag is pretty horrible even when playing with someone from thailand.

Made worse by the enemy scaling, where having a laggy teammate is pretty much a pain for everyone.

It might be better now with Steamworks.

QUOTE(Ikhwan Aziz @ Sep 17 2012, 07:11 AM)
I beat the game(into playthrough 2.5) with all 4 different characters and completed every mission including DLC at least once. All single player. And I still do random crawmerax/armory loot runs when I'm bored from time to time.

I think the opinion differs for everyone. I love this series and I'm hyped up as hell for BL2(but can't play it early due to internets lol).
*
I think i might play the wrong class, cause i picked the soldier which i find it incredibly boring. To be honest, i just dont know why i dislike Borderland.

The soldier in B1 was more of a support class imo, I also picked him the first time I played B1 (safe choice  rolleyes.gif ), got bored of him within 2 hours.

But yeah I kinda agree that playing B1 solo can be slightly depressing, first time around I played solo until level 10, stopped for half a year, found 2 kakis and played as Siren. Felt much better to not face mundane deserts and maniacs alone.
*
Then, which class would you recommend for solo play? Maya?

for borderland one,siren much better since the elemental and phase walk would really help when overwhelmed by those crazies and the plus it would refill your health. can't say about borderland 2 since its not out yet but elemental weapon plus elemental class really makes things easy especially on mad moxxi (never thought she's scooter mother) dome..

QUOTE(iRadiation @ Sep 17 2012, 01:41 PM)
If B1 was anything to go by, yeah I'd probably take Maya or Zer0. :3

I'm keeping myself spoiler-free before my actual hands-on with B2, so I haven't seen the skill trees and whatnot yet.
*
Note taken. I think i'll give Maya and Zero a go then.

Soldier seems like a bad choice. My bro loved the game, despite he played solo. He used Zero, though.

Wait wait, was your question intended for B1 or B2?  unsure.gif

B1 : Hunter (Mordecai) Siren (Lilith)

Zer0 and Maya are in B2 lol.
*
Sorry, it should be B1.

I guess i'll try Hunter and Siren in B1.

woah original xcom is a classic had tons of fun.. still remember playing it many many years ago..  laugh.gif 
why no buy on steam for the preorder bonus?

I was too young to play XCOM, so this upcoming game will be my first one.

The thing is, Steam Australia is selling XCOM at 70USD. It is more than double the price of XCOM at GMG.

overpriced again, this is buying online no such thing as region. when will publisher/developer realized this? gmg can get some further discounts.
*
The bad thing is, it is Australia and some people here tend to be quite slow in realising stuff. Still, the retail games sold here usually comes with better physical items most of the time. For example, buying XCOM in retail will automatically upgrade your order to Special Edition on PC, their retail version of Dark Souls PC comes with mouse and mouse pad, on top of the Prepare to Die bonus artwork book and so on, and buying Dishonored here will give you steelbox with some extras. Not to forget the price has gone down a bit, while the freebies got a little bit more, from 90AUD to 69AUD for a PC game. Not to mention, you are getting the exact copies that you can buy in Gamestop US, so most of the time, most games will give you some extra DLC that you cannot get elsewhere.

Still, if i want to buy at higher local prices, i might as well get it retail but i think, might as well save that 70 AUD to get both XCOM with a copy of Borderlands 2 or Hitman: Absolution. Instead of just one game. icon_idea.gif

Still, i think Square Enix realise this nonsense so their newer games are being sold at 50USD on Steam, while other publishers like 2K, EA and Activision havent. Yeap, Black Ops 2 Steam Preorder is 100USD. doh.gif

Not sure i want to spoil the first mission or not. hmm.gif

Yeap. Check steam AU store. Some games are usually double the price from US store. If i remember skyrim was $89.99 like that?

Yea, Skyrim was 89.99USD, but now, it is 60USD.

I guess Beth isnt that evil too, at least they reduce price after a while, but why is Dawnguard cost 25USD. doh.gif
