Looks pretty cool.

Actually have been thinking about heading back to Diablo now that the AH's are gone.

Thought they weren't gone until march?

Also loot 2.0 isn't implemented yet right? That's the major problem. Loot 2.0 is said to come with the expansion and you need to get the expansion I thought. I might end up getting the expansion even though I said I was fed up with D3, if they really turn the game around I'll give it a shot. Turns out I really like ARPGs however the lack of complexity in builds and not needing to level for a totally different build kinda kills the replay for D3. There's no reason to level another witch doctor. You don't pick stats or ability tree stuff, only runes which would be good as drops or something. It just seem too simple and boring.

Oh, for some reason I thought they were gone early January.

And Plois, that's how it was for D2. Once you hit the level cap the best way to get stronger was runes and stuff (which, coincidentally, were worth a ton for the right ones.

Wonder if they'll have a global shout lobby again where people can sell stuff.

Tomorrow Marvel Heroes gets runeword like mechanics.

Uru-Forged Items drop very rarely from almost all enemies.

Each is similar to a socketed item from D2, in that they are a vessel to be enchanted by an Asgardian Enchanter.

Each one has a different base stat (melee damage, defense, mental damage, etc.) and the runeword is applied on top of that (that's where the good stuff is).

Here is an example of an Uru-Forged Great Axe:

I never played Diablo 2 but I'm pumped for the gear. I have almost 4 max level characters, after patch I'll be working on 5th (hawkeye is getting buffed). I think I'm going to end up buying more space to store loot.

I will have to farm my butt off to get those rare runes. Maybe I should make a d2jsp account, marvel heroes is actually on that site. I wanted some Doom Gauntlets from there but you need currency that's unique to the site lol.

Getting a PS4 tomorrow, yaay (without enthusiasm). I wonder what I would do with it. I bought two Roku 3's for the house, so I won't be watching movies and stuff with it.

So I have a wii, xbox 360 both of which I never use, a PS3 I may touch to see what updates GTA5 get, and now a PS4 which I will probably use to watch other people play games?

[Iticus]

Is that roku 3 thingy worth getting if I refuse to pay for cable?

[Ploid]

It seems like it, it has so much media stuff in it you probably won't run out of things to watch. I did research on it before getting them and while I plan to keep Directv for news, Game of Friggin Thrones (HBO Go), and sports + other crap that I don't like such as Dancing with the Stars, Ellen tvr'd, and American idol. If you have your own video files you can also play them through Roku 3 via external USB HDD or Flash Drive. You can also stream movies from your home network using Plex.

Informative review from old TechTV guy.

I haven't had time with it yet but it looks very solid for the direction the future of internet entertainment is going. Heck I have to kick myself to watch Directv when something I want to see is about to come on (rare). Otherwise I use internet media (Hulu, Netflix, Amazon type stuff). There are thousands of channels for it, some require subscription like Netflix, and people are developing a lot of stuff for it since it's cheap and easy vs AppleTV licenses.

[ItsSeflol]

Our ps4 is a $400 Netflix box atm. Infamous 3 comes out in a month though.

[Iticus]

I argue with my Xbox one. Ryse and guess 5 are my go to games for now tho.

[Chamcham]

I agree. As of right this moment, the Xbone has a better selection of games. Dead Rising 3 and Killer Instinct come to mind as well.

[Yorke]

It was obviously gonna be a while before any games come out for either of them. Still haven't bought my PS4, may do that in a few weeks though. No need since I restarted playing Fallout 3 a few days ago and I'm absolutely loving it. I was gonna buy GT6 but I thought I'd get a PS4 instead.

[Ploid]

Yeah for Gran Turismo I'm waiting for the PS4 version because I just KNOW that thing is going t omelt my mind.

[Ploid]

About the Roku 3, it's friggin awesome.

[ItsSeflol]

This is a ridiculous month for games. For me alone it's:
South Park, Yoshi's Island 2, FFX HD, Infamous.

But there's also Titanfall, Dark Souls 2, Metal Gear 5

[Ploid]

I guess I could get a game, might get infamous, or Diablo expansion if it's good and worth it. I'll probably just end up getting nothing and reading about how good or bad they are. The thing I like about South Park is how close the graphics are to the actual show.

[Ploid]

I apologize, South Park Rpg looks pretty legit. Saw the goth group from a episode I recently watched, they nailed this game. Best South Park game made.

[Ploid]

Funniest game in the world? May be so!

[ItsSeflol]

South Park has everything. You go to Canada and it is just hilarious. Funnier than anything Ive seen in Saints Row.

[Yorke]

PS4 for me soon for MGS5, gonna be baller.

But I think I may get D3 expansion also now that the AH's are down. Game is more fun without em...always did love getting those unreal drops though and cashing in on em.

[Ploid]

South Park has everything. You go to Canada and it is just hilarious. Funnier than anything Ive seen in Saints Row.

Hah yeah so much more funnier than Saints Row, or any game. So good, so funny, so inappropriate. HAHHAHAHA

And yeah Vedder, I think I'm going to get the expansion too, my wizard is a beast now, and everything on my character is drops and crafts from dropped plans. I did buy a source because they nerfed the new sources, and mojos.
