Dedicated audio processing hardware that is not present in PC? WTF is that supposed to mean?
But...Halloween is days away.
Oh come on you know better. Most bars do their parties the weekend before when Halloween falls in the middle of the week.
Oooh lookey here! A wild podcast has appeared. I'll use download to capture it. It's super effective.
Flipping Deus ex boss fight, douchebag throws two grenades at once. And how exactly do you run from them when you're stuck crouched behind a wall? You can delock from the wall but you're still crouched and wont move fast enough to get away. So you have to de_crouch, then if by miracle you're still alive you have try and hit a third function to run. And because the douche throws two grenades, you can run away from one right into the path of another. Game wont let me throw back grenades yet.
Only way I see to make the process easier is to switch cover and crouch to HOLD rather than TOGGLE. Which means unlearning the whole way I've been playing so far.
No Western games in sight for me this weekend!

What about you, Gaijins?
I've been playing mostly two games this weekend:
Been playing Tomb Raider. It's pretty, but the hand holding is obnoxious.
Also Metro 2033. It oozes atmosphere, gunplay is nice and the pace is brisk. What's not to love in a FPS?
I'd like to say I've been playing Ni No Kuni, but it has been a week since I have turned on a console.
I played the first two episodes of BTTF (started and finished the second one last night).
This image sums up my exp with the game so far:
For whatever reason I've been mostly sleeping in my free time (22 hours in the last two days). And I'm still tired.
I've been playing Batman Origins this weekend.
Just played a bit more Dark Souls. Experiencing some more of the DLC before I wrap it up for this playthrough
