Edit: I'm most excited for the private matches option.

This update is a whole lot of nothing.

Is The Witness on anybody's radar? It's getting great reviews, but I'm not sure I'm ready to drop $40 on a puzzle game.

I took a look at some gameplay, not terribly interested.

I bought it and it is currently downloading. I love the idea of an open world puzzle game. Seems like it is huge too (40+ hours). Totally justifies the price.

Anyone else play these or Sierra games as a kid?

[ABNorman]

For me, it's

Grim Fandango
Full Throttle
LeChuck's Revenge
Curse of Monkey Island
Day of the Tentacle
Fate of Atlantis
Sam and Max
Secret of Monkey Island

I remember playing that Battleship mini game in Sam and Max for ages.

The beta of The Division is running this weekend for 1 day, anyone giving it a go?

I'm tempted, looks like a decent game.

[tragabigzanda]

I have every intention of diving into The Division once I wrap up Far Cry 4. I'm savoring my time in Kyrat, so I'm skipping the beta and waiting for the full release.

So Square has a ton of great deals on the PSN network right now and I picked up Sleeping Dogs for 10 bucks. And Wow. Impressive game. Love the combat and the open world vibe it has.

Yeah, I had a fun time with that one.

I kept getting it confused with watch dogs.

Well, they ruined Battlefront with that update.

[LoathedVermin72]

Well, they ruined Battlefront with that update.

Why's that?

Yeah? I actually had fun playing last night

So, first off, the homing shot is now useless. It takes way too long to lock on and you're a sitting duck while you wait for that to happen. They lessened the impact of the DL-44, which I wasnt using, but still, why? I feel like they are punishing people who got good at THIS game to make it more like Call Of Duty for the people that are more used to that game.

Ugh. I love the homing shot, and I hate when developers start nerfing stuff that doesn't need nerfing.

I dont get why people complained about it. I used it, but I didnt get pissed if someone killed me with it.
