He spoke to Microsoft and they're gonna restore his account with everything he had, but no mention of a refund; I was at work when he talked to them. You guys have any experience with this?

If Microsoft doesn't do a refund I bet the credit card company will. I'm assuming your account is tied to a card.

Thanks. This sounds like good advice that I'll pass along to my son.Monkey_Driven wrote:Always have 2 step verification on.
Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. Funny, we used to take the card info out all the time because they would make rando purchases and swear they didn't.bada wrote:If Microsoft doesn't do a refund I bet the credit card company will. I'm assuming your account is tied to a card.

The Game of Thrones one is fun but it stresses me the fuck out. It's a cool way to experience a story for sure.scrub12 wrote:Telltale Batman was awesome. Crushed it out in a few days. Really hoping they do another season, but I'm still waiting on Wolf Among Us Season 2.

Some good sales on the PS Store again this week. Thinking of picking up Virginia.
Also, anyone who hasn't played Inside should buy it this week. It is half off.

Four or five different characters. None are from the show, though, I believe.CopperTom wrote:Who do you play as in GoT?

Yeah, they're all kind of "fill-in-the-gaps"characters that they made up to fit into the narratives of the show. It's cool. I'm very impressed with how the mechanics work, it's pretty seamless.LoathedVermin72 wrote:Four or five different characters.

It follows several characters from a minor house in the North with cameos from some of the major players in the series.

Are people still playing the Last of Us multiplayer regularly? I tried logging on a couple times after I finished the story, and it seemed like a ghost town, so I never returned.Monkey_Driven wrote:There is and it is wonderful.

Does the Deus Ex series exclusively hire awful voice actors?
