They don't belong to him :p They are USA boxes :p

Arghhh. Fatality... :devil:

Yes they are real though, but not mine. Some guy on Neogaf got his elite and these 2 games from the lovely ToysRus. Word on the street is they are selling copies early. Well at least some stores are.

Soooo... WHO YA GONNA CALL? TOYSRUS!

That's right everyone, go call ToysRus to check with them.

I like the front cover that's like your sig, don't like the one with the Big Daddy on it though, just the logo looks more sophisticated and art deco and utopia like until you look closer. Big Daddy is weird to anyone who doesn't know what it is :p

Snap! They already got it in stock :o

He looks awesome though, like he's gonna raise some hell ! :devil: The colours are ncier too imo but ah well. I want the figurine too much lol

Does anyone have a link to the font that they use in the menus of Bioshock? I think the font was used for King Kong but it looks like something that would be in those old projection films.

This is the closest I could find in a quick search of Dafont (I only checked a couple of pages in the Retro section): http://www.dafont.com/market-deco.font

Played the demo. It was decently fun. Looks amazing even in SD. It was really short though. All in all, before the demo, I had next to no interest in the game, but now that I've tasted it, I might have pick it up. Gonna be tough though because I'm also thinking of dropping $600 on an LCD TV :D

Is the collectors edition going to available in the shops? Or do i have to preorder, or order online to get that? Because i prefer to walk into the shop and buy it and have it in my hand on the day of release then drive home with a giant grin on my face :D

Also if I DO have to preorder to get CE, does it arrive on release day?

I'm checking my local Gamestop tomorrow to make sure I have the CE reserved (and also to try and see if I can get my copy early, since the ship date's apparently been moved up :ninja:).

I've been following all the threads on neogaf, but with people starting to pick up the game it looks like I'm going to have to keep myself away from the internet to avoid spoilers. Oh, darn.

Go for the TV man. It will be worth it. Every game you play after you'll enjoy that much more. :yes: :D

I had little interest before the demo. I still don't look forward to playing it, but i do have a nagging urge in the back of my head to finish the little but of story I got a taste of. I found the guns very.... limited. The hacking was cool, but the rest of the aiming was rather difficult and annoying, even though I am an FPS gamer first and foremost.

Im still iffy about it. The story is unique, but the game isn't all that impressive in itself.

so you got all that from just a small tast in the demo. why not buy the full game and play it and since it has many many many ways in witch you can play the game and use the environments as a weapon why not buy the game. it is a very once in a life time type of story being told and no other game yet to date can top it.

Why should I spend $60 on a game Im not sure I will like? If the story is the only thing going for it, a rental might suffice. I just don't like the way the weapons and electricity work. I might just need to get used to the controls, but what seems like complete lack of aim assist on the game it is very annoying to kill things, especially when enemies take 3-5 shots from a damn magnum like gun to kill. The tommy gun takes freakin forever to kill anything with, and it is very hard to hit the enemies with any of the plasmids.

    • There is a default resolution setting in Settings > Display that can be changed with a click. You can also change the settings on a per-game basis. No CLI needed. Also, Steam has countless games that are not "[perpetual] alpha/beta games", so no need for the straw man. Plus you can use other stores as well. And console games (e.g. PS5) cost a fortune, which itself more than negates the price subsidy on the system, unless you plan on exclusively playing 1 or 2 games. It's true that you shouldn't buy a system that doesn't support the game(s) you want to play, but I think that's kinda obvious, and applies to every console as well as PC. I don't game in the living room and have no need of a Steam Machine, but there is a clear market segment that would find it useful.

RSS Guard 5.2.0 changelog: Added: Feed auto-fetch can now also be delayed while Feral GameMode is active on Linux and startup auto-fetch is skipped when GameMode is already active. (#2265) WebEngine builds can now use RSS Guard generated proxy auto-config (PAC) rules so article/web browsing follows per-account and per-feed proxy settings more closely. (#2273) Generated PAC rules now also cover related subdomains and use Public Suffix List data, so feeds such as feeds.bbc.co.uk can also proxy resources from images.bbc.co.uk. (#2273) Standard feeds can now define extra proxy domains, useful when article images, stylesheets or other page resources are loaded from a CDN or another domain that should use the same feed proxy. (#2273) RSS Guard now asks for proxy credentials when a WebEngine page needs proxy authentication and can fill credentials from the current feed proxy when available. (#2273) Network settings again include an option to ignore all cookies, which clears stored cookies and prevents new cookies from being accepted. Standard RSS/ATOM feeds can now individually ignore cookies while downloading feed data. Stored cookies can now be deleted from the Tools menu. Custom skin colors can now override the feed list article count color separately from feed titles, including a separate highlighted color. (#2275) Settings dialog can now search across available settings and highlight matching controls. (#1754) Standard RSS/ATOM feeds can now optionally be reported as broken when they are valid but contain no articles. (#2039) Standard RSS/ATOM feeds can now override the application-wide feed connection timeout per feed. (#1023) Tray icon can now use a custom background color and unread-count text color, with an option to reuse the generated icon as the application icon. (#1973) Support for more benevolent parsing of Gemlog entries (#2295). Article list can now show when an article was received by RSS Guard. (#947) Feed deep discovery now actually scrapes all links found in the website and checks if they are feeds or not. This greatly enhances usability of the deep discovery mode and discovers many more feeds than before. (#2306) Search boxes now show a small dot when the feed or article list is hiding some items because of active filtering. (#873) Articles now have a shortcut-assignable action to open the homepage of the feed they belong to. (#2060) Fixed: Parallel feed updates no longer crash when multiple update results are processed at the same time. (64cf521) Links in WebEngine articles opened from feeds such as Kill the Newsletter now open correctly instead of being swallowed by the embedded page. (#2272) Relative article URLs resolution was kinda broken. (#2282) Clicking article URL did not work when the URL had "fragment" set. (#2293) The default proxy setting now uses Qt/system default proxy behavior instead of forcing no proxy. (e0263ad) WebEngine article loading now keeps the current feed context, so feed-specific proxy credentials remain available while the article page loads.
