ah teh gaf, only a step away from the cesspool that is 4chan.

Why do you visit that place AB? :no:

Big community = good balance of neutral chat for all consoles, although more fanboys as well unfortunately, however lots of developers stop by to chat with everyone also, you don't get that many places.

And some of the stuff like the above actually makes me laugh :laugh:

Take the Demons Souls thread on NeoGAF for example, over 100 pages of people who like the game talking about it, on Neowin, I've probably posted about 65% of the posts in that 6 page topic or whatever it is.

Well it definitely has more PS3 activity than Neowin so I have no doubt there Demon Souls thread would be a lot bigger. Just like if I'm asking questions that go unanswered here I go straight to the GameFAQ boards.

Then why are you still here? :p

I'm not allowed to be part of 2 communities? :rofl:

I registered on GAF in December 2008, only recently had my account approved. Account approval times are sloooooow.

Mystic is right though, the PS3 community on Neowin is pretty dead, more Xbox gamers here so when it comes to something like Demons Souls, which is a PS3 game AND an imported game, I ain't got much chance of discussion on here :p

You're always going to get a closer knitted community on a site like this though compared to GAF where there is literally "too many members". So Neowin > GAF, I ain't going anywhere!

I just registered on the site and have an account but you're saying I won't get approved for months? Are there only those three sections on the forum? I'm just wondering because everything seems so cluttered with that many members.

Well it's completely random, just depends on your luck. Registrations get hand approved every so often, there was an influx of new members just recently. Might only need to wait a week or two, might need to wait months.

So yeah, one of the bad things about GAF, everything is just lumped in together.

I've played the Dark Corners deleted scene - both ways; stealth and guns blazing. Big let down - pretty dull only takes about 20 minutes each.

I've also done a couple of the Horde achievements already I can honestly say that I will not be purchasing this when it comes out on Tuesday, I am seriously disappointed with it. I'm very glad that my friend had a code for a review of it and we did split screen, I think that I will finish the rest of the Horde achievements on split screen once more people have the game next week and finally call it a day with this game!

Wow, all the content looks amazing and hearing that makes me cry. Maybe it's because of the price but all of it just looks beautiful and much more thought out. I don't really care for the Delete Scene but I do want the 7 new maps.

lol why would you need to purchase it when you already played it? It's worth the maps which I don't have. I'm getting it tonight! :D

^^ Yes.

I bought Dark Corners. I think about half of the multiplayer maps are rather bland and will probably never want to play again, but there's some good ones on there, too (Nowhere, Allfathers Garden, whatever map starts with an "M"). I actually really enjoyed the deleted scene, too. I have only played the guns a' blazin' style so far, though.

Sneak is very cool aswell. You can see the Locusts smell the air if you are near.

Yup sign ups are strict over there to just stop the constant flow of fanboys and trolls. Good luck keeping hold of your account for long too.

After 210 posts I got banned for saying some new game concept would need hd graphics :/

    • Sure is a shame that Google spent all of its efforts on maximizing milking ###### ad revenue instead of actually improving their once ubiquitous and best-in-class search engine with, say, a useful AI that could actually improve search results... /S
    • The blatant anti-competitive nature of the EU's DMA rules are obscenely IRONIC and wholly damaging to upwards innovations from within the EU. Why?! Because it penalizes marketplace competitors whom the users CHOOSE to sign contracts with (basically dictating the product management models and strategies whilst handicapping popular marketplace choices) all under the guise of 'fair competition' and assuring continued operations. The only beneficiary (as the DMA is written and applied) are the toxic wannabes with whom most consumers have chosen to NOT do business with! What kind of bass-ackwards nonsense is that?! Not everyone in the marketplace that's lower-ranked deserves some sort of advantage whilst being otherwise garbage and toxic. Ugh, so dumb.
    • Assetto Corsa Competizione, House Flipper 2, and more join Xbox Free Play Days by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe There is a brand-new Free Play Days offer available to Xbox players, giving them a chance to try out a new selection of games over the weekend. Microsoft's latest promotion brings in three games for Xbox players to try out, and they are House Flipper 2, Blades of Fire, and Assetto Corsa Competizione. Unlike in recent weeks, no games from this selection are being offered without a Game Pass subscription this time. This means only Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, Premium, and Essential members can jump into the three titles, even if they are single-player. From the trio, House Flipper 2 is for simulation fans. The title lets you buy run-down properties, renovate them, and sell them for a profit. A sandbox mode even lets you build houses from scratch too. Next, Blades of Fire lands as a fantasy adventure that combines metroidvania exploration with punishing combat. One unique aspect is that instead of finding loot, you'll be physically forging your own weapons. Lastly, we go back to simulators with Assetto Corsa Competizione, with the hit racing title offering a hardcore, highly competitive racing game focused entirely on GT3 and GT4 class cars. Everything from the tracks and tire physics to the dynamic weather conditions are focused on giving players an authentic driving experience. Here are the announced games and the platforms they are available to play on: House Flipper 2 (Xbox Series X|S) Blades of Fire (Xbox Series X|S) Assetto Corsa Competizione (Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One) To easily find the titles on Xbox consoles, first head to the Store, and then in the sidebar, find the Home section. In there, open the Subscriptions tab. All the games from the Free Play Days collection will show up in this section for quick access. This week's Free Play Days promotions will end on Sunday, June 28, at 11:59 pm PT.
    • Just what I wanted, an even bigger bomb in my Chinese spy phone.
    • Be sure to toss in a couple tacos to sweeten the deal, no one else sells better bridges!
