RSS Swag Post - July 15, 2009: Classics Constructicons + Devastator
First thing's first, these are not the original Constructicons, nor do they form the original Devastator. The original, iconic combiner is made up of six far less articulated robots. No, these are three dudes and two of their twins cosplaying as the ... (read more)

You weren't able to talk him out of it with Intimidation? D:

See, even though it means that I will never 100% the achievements in Mass Effect, I'm just not going to play through as a hardcore Renegade. I've tried, in other BioWare games, to be a jerk, but I just could not do it. I feel bad when I do. I was playing Dragon Age the other night, and I don't remember what it was, something about my dog giving Morrigan a dead animal and her being disgusted, but I said something like "Don't do that again," and the dog was sad, and so then I myself was like "I'm sorry! D:" I dunno, I just like to be as nice as I can to everyone. With Mass Effect, I was able to talk my way out of a lot of stuff just by using charm.

In response to your Mass Effect comment; I can't play through games like that as an asshole. I've tried, and it just never works. Sure, maybe I'll get a few points of Renegade or evil, whatever it is called in a certain game, but almost always I max out the 'good' one. I just can't help it, and it doesn't help that ME1 has an achievement for getting 75% of Renegade. :/

That's alright, no need to be sorry. We all have things like that come up. Hah, yeah, having no internet can make someone crazy. Though surprisingly, I could last awhile without constant internet. God knows that I managed well in early summer of 2008, since we had no internet at my dad's house, and we would have to go to the library to check our email and whatnot.

That's alright, I was without a computer for 4 days as I had to replace the power supply. Having no internet was boring, even with other entertainment options.

DMC4 is pretty good so far.

it's all good. Glad your modem came back to life (or was replaced). My wireless tried to die for about 2 weeks. Xmas go okay for you?

Hahah, that's alright. I'm sure that I will get around to it, sometime. It is still a little bit more than I would like to spend on a guide book. (I almost always get my guides second-hand.) Though it isn't nearly as bad as some guidebooks I've seen. Uncharted? I saw it going up into the hundreds a few weeks ago, though only a few days, I saw it back at $40. I can't understand why the prices jump like this.

Aww, well you certainly do put a smile on my face. Really, I appreciated you letting me borrow Ar tonelico earlier this year. It was one of the best PS2 RPGs that I invested time into recently.

So how has your holiday been going for you?

Thanks, I'm more confidant about beating Nemesis, I just need to play more. Hopefully you'll be able to join one of the lobbies soon. I have more planned out after X-mas.

Happy holidays to ya!

My bad, I must have transposed stuff as I was reading. Thanks for the corrections, haha.

Fair enough. I'm including Barricade in yet another TF reboot I'm working on (titled Warhead, aiming for more realism than previously including with almost wholly antagonistic human military, etc); in this though, he's an Autobot SWAT van who has a tendency to brutalize the enemy.

I may be able to get my hands on a Wii soon, but there's no guarantor I'll have it before Christmas or even after Christmas. I'd like to, but yeah. With DS:E and the four GC games I have, I don't really need any new games for it for a while, so getting the system is my next priority. As for Impossible, it's surprisingly easy, actually, and you get used to it quicklike. The main things to be concerned with are upgrading damage immediately, and saving ammo upgrades for when you're extremely low so you can capitalize on free refill. If you're on an HD setup, the turrets aren't too bad, I had major trouble on an SD tho.

And yes, that is the vicious cycle.

Indeed. I was playing a little yesterday and I was so close to defeating him the first time. The dodging is pure cake now, but sometimes it screws me over and I still get hit.

Geez, I may have to do a little modifications if that's the case.

Now why did you have to go and show that to me? *wishes she had the money to spend on it* Oh well. Someday. xD

You're too nice to let me borrow your things. ♥ I don't have any other online friends that would be up to that sorta thing. But like I said, I'll ask to borrow it after I've returned AT1, and when I'm ready to play RE0.

I think my fear was that I would be trying to figure something out and not get it, when it was so easy, and then have wasted ammo and health items because of zombies being the douches that they are. So that's probably why I would want a guide. The Prima guide isn't as expensive as the BradyGames one, but I heard that it doesn't really have a Chris walkthrough. Eh, regardless, if I am going to get a guide, it'll be the Prima one. Just as long as I have something.

Well, I have been wanting to take on RE0, but I should really return Ar tonelico to you before I even think of asking to borrow your guide book. I would just feel bad if I didn't return one thing to you before borrowing another. Regardless, I should return AT1 soon, anyway. And Rebecca Chambers is very <3.

It's like Nemesis was a wife beater before all of this happened or something. Punching females in the back of the head is not a cool thing.

Yeah, it's 12 megs, that's a bit much right?
