    I have a hard time motivating myself to find every single collectible.

    Same here. There were a few side missions I never finished.

    I never found that mysterious guy enough to finish that side mission.

  • What internet speeds do you guys use to play games online? I'm shopping around for plans and don't know what I would need.

    for playing Diablo 3

    Mine tops out at around 50 mbps up and 6 down, but it can be inconsistent because I live in a high density neighborhood.

  • My U-Verse is 12 mbps but really tops out around 9-10. No issues whatsoever. However, with how affordable 30, 50, and even 100+ is these days, I say go big or go home.

    Mine went up by itself a few months back as my provider upgraded everything around me, they raised the bandwidth of the min package and bumped everything else accordingly.

    BTW, dont get caught on the wrong side of terminology. Providers advertise their services in Mb/s, as in MegaBITS, no BYTES. 8 Bit = 1 Byte. Lot of people make that mistake.

    around 20 mbps is good enough.

  • BTW, if you're on PC and haven't bought Skyrim yet, it's going for $40 on Steam. I just picked up Portal 2 on Steam for Mac for $6, same goes for PC.

    I asked the dude at the counter today if D3 would be on consoles.... he laughed at me like I should have known better... what a failure I am.

    Anyway, I am gonna try to play it on my computer.....

    The Diablo 3 trailer is being advertised on xbox live so I am hoping it is coming out later for consoles.

    That is pretty interesting. They don't normally advertise PC only games on Xbox Live.

  • Just downloaded Spec Ops: The Line demo. I hear this is a gory and gripping storyline. 3 person co-op I believe.

    I have been meaning to download that but keep forgetting. I have heard good things.

    They have been working on it for 5 years. From what I read on the forum, the controls are great, movements are great, combat is good, graphics are good, melee is a little clunky right now. Multiplayer is receiving mixed reviews, though. I wouldn't play a whole lot of MP on this game, more than likely anyway. Gonna go test out this demo.

  • So does anybody else just say WTF at the end of every Assassin's Creed?

    I kind of felt like they were ripping off the Matrix a little at the end of Revelations,too.

  • IGN is naming the top 50 game worlds of all time. This should be very interesting. I expect to see Mario, Zelda, Skyrim, Mass Effect, The Witcher, GTA Vice City and San Andreas, Red Dead Redemption, Halo, Bioshock, God of War etc. I really do not know what my favorite gaming world has been.

    In the Assassin Creed games I care more about the Ezio and Altair story and really could care less about Desmond.

    My brother has me playing this game now, and seems interesting so far.

    It says right in the article that it won't include The Witcher.

    I think I'm following the "real world" story pretty well so the "WTF!?" factor has gone down considerably since the original AC. This will most likely be the last title with Desmond as the real world character because the "end world event" is supposed to happen this year. I guess that doesn't mean Desmond HAS to go, but the devs have said they plan to expand to other lineages.

    I think the most interesting game world is Rapture. I loved everything about it.

    Ancient Greece in GoW is really interesting too.

    I wish more games were set in Ancient Greece or even Rome. A game similar to Skyrim would be perfect IMO and I would buy it day one.
