Re: Official Video Games Thread VI: Somebody set us up the bomb

Finally got my HD Capture Card working properly. Hope to come out with a FIFA compilation over Winter Break. I'll upload a nice goal of mine once I finish this last bout of homework. :p

Excellent title.

Re: Official Video Games Thread VI: Somebody set us up the bomb

I dunno, mine is currently beating the Polyphony Digital Cup Championship on Expert without my assistance.

I didn't say well written, I said easy to farm for XP, money and free cars.

Completely different. If it was well written, b-spec would be difficult.
 
Re: Official Video Games Thread VI: Somebody set us up the bomb

has anybody in here ever tried to connect a console to a PC... i know there appear to be a lot of ways but i just want one that works. the purpose, mainly, is that its the only way I can play music and the wii at the same time... amongst other thigns. I'm trying to find a way to make my PC the interface for all things audio/video in my apartment.

PS3 can do it natively using DLNS or some crap like that. It's pretty slick. You can transfer any number of files to and from the PS3, stream movies and music, a few other things.

Here we go, all my goals from about 60 minutes of FIFA. Be gentle. :p

The only one I really like is the 2nd goal. The Rooney one is okay, I hit post twice from about 15 yards farther back.

Oh, and comments on vid quality?

Playing as ManU makes me sad. You should guide Wolves to the title!

@Twitchy I remember you mentioned in part V you had Poker N. at the Inventory. How do you use the unlockables in that game? I know the guns, etc are for TF2. But I mean the alternate tables and decks.

You have to win them by winning tournaments. Can get tricky. If you're having trouble, try playing on Hard, they'll actually play more consistently.

From what I've observed/read on boards:

Max: Plays really really randomly - tough to predict.
Strong Bad: Really aggressive, likes to bluff a lot.
Heavy: Fairly conservative, likes to intimidate people off the pot with big bets.
Tycho: The most conservative, folds a lot, but when he does play he's for real. Gets more aggressive as people are eliminated.
 
Re: Official Video Games Thread VI: Somebody set us up the bomb

I have won and have them. How do I enable them?

I've never seen an options screen for that game.
 
Re: Official Video Games Thread VI: Somebody set us up the bomb

If you need money in GT5.

Under Expert run the Turbo Challenge. Both races give 36,000 Cr (only 1651 xp). The high speed ring can be done in under 4 minutes depending on the car you use.

So that's 9,000 cr per minute. :D
 
Re: Official Video Games Thread VI: Somebody set us up the bomb

GT5 changes a bit when you reach level 20.

- The gas gauge starts to empty when you race for the first time.
- In B-Spec you now have a "pit strategy" button for longer races.
- You also get 2 new commands in B-spec for "pit" and "don't pit".

I think at level 21 damage also increases (at 40 its full damage).
 
Re: Official Video Games Thread VI: Somebody set us up the bomb

Honestly, I've always feared that they would put damage in the game. $5 says people ***** about it when they get to 40. The same people who *****ed when there wasn't damage. I hated the idea. Unless you can turn it off (just like autosaving) it's a terrible feature.

Polyphony Digital really blew it with this game. I've not been impressed at all.
