I mean, most of the shit Batman does in any medium would kill or at least permanently cripple real people.

He doesn't usually fire 60mm cannons at thugs though.

Arkham Knight is a great game. I can see why people found the batmobile tedious but I really enjoyed using it, slamming full force into enemy cars and ramming them off the road was tremendously satisfying to me. Being able to play the entire game as Michael Keaton Batman is worth a tenner on its own.

Have you guys ever taken this "gamer motivation profile"?

Mine seems pretty accurate. Of the six main categories (Immersion, Action, Social, Mastery, Achievement, Creativity) I scored a 49% in Immersion, 52% in social, and 82% in creativity. I feel like that's pretty representative of how I play games - I want to be immersed in the game, and I love the social aspects of gaming, whether it's playing local co-op with a friend or playing an MMO. Creativity's also pretty important, if I can find a way to break the game - either through OP strategies or glitches - that's when I really start having fun. My secondary motivations are things like community, fantasy, and strategy.

So I only just saw this and, I got sub 50% in everything. I guess I really do fucking hate everything.

I got Tomb Raider, I'm enjoying it. If anyone on here has it on PS4 we can try and sort out doing some of the co-op stuff if you want?

I started playing Arkham Knight again and holy shit I never realised Jim Gordon was voiced by Mike from Breaking Bad.

[Bobfoc]

That was my favourite thing about the game.

For the few remaining Gran Turismo fans here I know of, Hell froze over.

When the EA/Porsche exclusivity nonsense finally ended, I hoped this would happen.

Now someone who knows someone who knows someone get me in the damned beta!

[Meacon Keaton]

Wait, why have all the Gran Turismo fans left? What have I missed? Is it because we get one every fifteen years?

[Benji]

I don't buy it because I can never figure out which one is a full release and which one is a demo, or an incremental release, or whatever bullshit they are throwing out this year.

This new Naruto game looks good! 

[apsham]

 

This is how remakes should be done - I can't wait to play it! Only wish it had a physical release.

Man, that art style is beautiful.

So I made my first custom flag in Kerbal Space Program the other day.

Wonder Boy is excellent, I suggest picking it up if you get the chance - it feels so good!

74% of all games purchased in the US in 2016 were digital.

Would like to see what the UK/European percentage is, but that's much higher than I thought it'd be. While digital can be convenient, it's usually more expensive and takes up more memory.

Less so now on the expense. More companies are following the Steam route - more expensive as standard, but regular and heavy sales. I'd be interested to see what the ratio of first week sales for digital vs physical.
