Re: Official Video Games Thread V: Collector's Edition

Beat DQIX's storyline today. Only took me 64+ hours. :D

Now on to the post-game content which is actually much harder than the main game.

I'm hooked on the Netflix feature for Wii. I'm catching up on Weeds and Dexter. Also, I'll be watching some old Doctor Who episodes as well.

Thanks for mentioning this. I had no idea Wii was affiliated with Netflix. It looks like Netflix will be getting 8.99/month from me! And the Wii will be getting used more.

All the latest versions of gaming systems have Netflix capability, along with the general live-streaming on computers. I thought the Wii required a disc or something (free of charge with subscribtion), but they were working on changing that to no-disc streaming.

Only reason the Wii and PS3 require a disc is the exclusivity deal Netflix signed with Xbox first to stream movies. Whenever that runs out they could stop using discs.

Ok, thanks. Since I don't own the latest gen gaming systems, I've only sorta paid attention.

I am in love with Netflix on the 360. It's decent for movies, but where Netflix really shines is with TV series. I've gotten into The Office, Dexter, 24, and plenty more with Netflix.
 
Re: Official Video Games Thread V: Collector's Edition

Been watching some streaming Netflix stuff on the Wii as well - re-watched season 1 of Archer and a few movies. Very convenient.

I was an avid starcraft player back in the day, so i decided to pick up this title yesterday. So far I have been playing pretty much online and getting my *** handed to me by people who were probably in beta. ( 0 wins 3 asstacular losses).

i highly recommend it for real time strategy fans since starcraft is the best one out there. Plus the story line is pretty sweet in the campaign mode. it feels like you are a part of a movie.

My Wife wants to play StarCraft 2 (she was avid player herself) but I'm pretty sure my GPU won't be able to run it (an nvidia GeForce 6150 SE) so I need to find an upgrade I guess. I just have no clue about GPUs.
 
Re: Official Video Games Thread V: Collector's Edition

Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion is only $8.49 (GOTY Deluxe) or $6.79 (GOTY) on Steam today. That is ridiculously low priced for such a large and great game.

Ok, this is ***** awesome. There's a storm moving into minneapolis and NCAA 11 syncs itself up with weather.com. There's an ominous storm moving over TCF Bank Stadium and it's creating some amazing visuals.

Well, you can't change whether or not it's cold (unless you're in exhibition I suppose). I mean, when i'm playing Iowa, you can definitely see the breath of the players.

Edit: Maybe you can make it snow. I'm not sure. I haven't played it in january yet.

That's what I mean. Imagine the Halloween Storm moving in during a game.....or you playing the game just after that storm ended. :D

It actually works now? For the last three years or so in both Madden and NCAA it never worked.
