congrats on all the accomplishments, sounds like some people had a fruitful weekend games-wise. as for UFC, agreed that the achievements for that one weren't the best. Prince of Persia is OK, i just don't like the fact the achieve descriptions all start with "congratulations". also having the same pic for all of them is pretty lazy on their part! Some artist missed out on a payday because of that.

anyone know when MyGC will be back?

Hated PoP. It was cool until I got to the point where they want me to go through ALL the levels, scouring for light seeds so I can unlock the last 2 levels. No way in hell I'm doing that!! :laugh:

it's not that bad, you need like 540 total to unlock the final power, right? i don't think after that there's any need to bother with the light seeds short of getting the achievements. yes it does get old, yes they shouldn't have made it a game device, but it's not that bad.

I duuno, I just really hate things like that. Like I already got all the ones that I though were reasonable to get. I don't want to go searching for an hour/using some guide on the net just to get enough to continue. That's just not my idea of fun at all.

added 140 points with the Mirror's Edge DLC, still need to do speedruns for chapter 5 to 9 and attain a lot of stars in time trials. probably not gonna happen, I remember doing the speedrun for chapter 4 took me about 6 hours of practicing. :laugh:

Mirror's Edge is a similar case to Prince of Persia, they both require things that many won't consider fun in order to get the full experience. i agree with you jianbing, it should not have been such a major focus in the game - collecting those seeds.

See, I thought that was the coolest part about the game. (I got all 1001) And I got my full money's worth out of Mirror's Edge, spent so much time on perfecting every level that it may have taken me even longer than, say, Fable II. Though when I picked up ME yesterday again I got through the entire story in less than 2.5 hours now :laugh:

well at least the gamercards are back. i've been reduced to bumming Transformers off a friends, it looks like an OK mech game so far. not too much to play at the moment, tried the Ghostbusters demo and it wasn't my type, but not bad. Anyway what's everyone else up to?

Well I broke down pretty quick on that whole no buying more games for a bit thing. Found Halo Wars on my local used website for $20 and couldn't say no :p. It's surprisingly good, though it seems like it's going to be pretty short.

really, Overlord 2? thought the first one was very so-so. what's good about the sequel?

It's just fun to play imo, the story is pretty funny, the minions are hilarious and there is actually a bit of RPG elements in there with upgrading your gear and managing the minions, I never played the first one, but this has some depth to the gameplay as well, with the different kinds of minions you can think out a different strategy for every other situation, which is done pretty well imo. The game itself might not be extremely polished but that doesn't take away that it's just a funny game.

doesn't sound like my cup of tea remy. enjoy it in the meantime.

jianbing, HW was a good game. i'm already getting nostalgic for it, and it was only like six months ago...not that it was that great, but i was pleasantly surprised. it isn't the longest single player campaign in history, no.

    • What? They aren't removing the disc drive and charging $800 for questionable performance upgrades that are better suited to a new generation console? How outrageous!
    • Bummer it's only 1TB instead of 2. I had one of those - the "Halo Special Edition" OG Xbox. This looks like a cool update.
    • KillerPDF 1.4.3 is out.
    • Google's NotebookLM gets some useful features you may have been waiting for by Aditya Tiwari It's been three years since Google introduced its AI-powered note-taking and research app, NotebookLM. Just when Apple is about to kick off WWDC 2026, the search giant has announced a platter of new NotebookLM features that add agentic capabilities in chat and more advanced reasoning. For starters, NotebookLM now draws its fuel from Gemini 3.5 and Antigravity to improve accuracy and reliability. One of the things people have been asking for a long time is more transparency into the thinking steps. NotebookLM now shows expanded thinking steps in chat, providing better visibility into the thinking process. Google compared the upgraded NotebookLM with prior versions and found that it "achieved an average win rate of over 65% — a 15% point margin above parity — across our top five core evaluation dimensions," including accuracy & quality, multilingual support, large document analysis, document creation, and advanced research. It showed substantial improvements in analyzing large documents, achieving a 69.9% win rate. The system also delivered "exceptional performance" in advanced web research and source discovery with a 78.2% win rate. The AI research tool now generates outputs in more formats. You can give instructions to guide the outputs and download the generated files from the studio panel. Here are the newly supported formats: PNG and SVG for data visualizations and charts PDFs, docx, markdown, and text files for documents PNG, JPG, and GIF for images JSON and CSV for structured data XLSX for Microsoft Excel PPTX for Microsoft PowerPoint You can make edits after the outputs are generated. The feature is available globally; therefore, you can provide directions in one language and create outputs in another. Google said that it's also making it easier to get started with a project in NotebookLM. Instead of having a list of sources beforehand, you can even start with loose ideas, and NotebookLM can help build the repository of sources through the chat. For instance, you can find primary sources in other languages to get new perspectives or explore related works of an author. All of these new features are rolling out globally for those who can loosen up their pockets. They are available to users with Google AI Ultra and all Workspace business customers with AI Ultra access. Google has plans to expand them to more users in the future.
