#309338 Post One or Two Interesting Facts About Yourself

Posted by Bill Cipher on 20 February 2015 - 12:29 PM

My dream job would to be an animator/work in Animation, as I love the medium. Unfortunately, I have the art skills of a spastic toaster, so that's not happening.

I've been working on a novel series for 5 years, trying to make sure I have all the pieces lined up properly before I finish the first book. It's a long process.


#308533 PlayStation Plus Question (detailed) ONLY PS+ members please

Posted by Bill Cipher on 08 February 2015 - 11:33 PM

I cannot afford the $50 really esp for something I have little use for. I don't care about "free" games. I bring this up because every PS3 game I have will NOT allow me to back up the SAVE DATA to a USB drive. I can back up PS2. PSViTA PSP. I know that. I know how with pressing triangle.

 

I am having trouble getting a crystal clear answer online from Sony's website. So this is what I WANT to do. I just want to back up the save data. Download that save data to my PC for local safe keeping in a folder. If this PS3 HDD fails I will be livid. Now Sony claims not all games will be allowed to back up save data on PS+. This concerns me as NONE of my games allow me to backup the save data. am I SOL?

 

I need to know that if I pay the $10 for 1 month of PS+ can I backup ALL my games SAVE DATA then download that save data in a folder to my PC. I am not asking to download the games. Just my save data.

 

Don't quote me on this, but I THINK there might be a way. I can't verify as I own no PS3, but I think there might be a work around in uploading the files to PS+, Downloading them to the Vita, transferring files from the Vita to the PC. Or maybe just straight from the PS3-Vita....

 

Again, I need someone to test it, but it could be worth a shot at least.

#306836 Nintendo Direct 1/14/15

Posted by Bill Cipher on 14 January 2015 - 05:54 AM

Alright Ladies and Gentlemen, in the wise words of Leeroy Jenkins:

 

Heads up, let's Do this thing. NIIIIIINNNTEEEENNDDDOOOOOOO DIIIIIIRRRREEEEECTTTT!!!

 

In all seriousness, here's what I'm expecting:

  • Codename S.T.E.A.M
  • Majora's Mask 3D
  • Monster Hunter 4 U
  • Yoshi's Wooly World
  • Kirby and the Rainbow Curse
  • New 3DS release date/price/lineup
  • And because this is NoA:

     

    Reggie doing something that NoA does because he's Reggie(See No Xenoblade until pressured, no CN Promotions, etc.), somehow believing that Nintendo fans are idiots who don't pay attention to other regions.

    Well Gabs can't count to 3.

    Steve jobs couldn't count to 2.

    Microsoft just can't count.

    At MS Offices:

     

    We've got Windows 95, 98, then we jump to 2000, then to 7, then 8, then to 10. THIS IS MATH RIGHT?




    #306552 Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate - Bigger and Better Than Ever?

    Posted by Bill Cipher on 07 January 2015 - 03:56 PM

    Gonna be huge. I hope we get a Nintendo Direct and that NA gets the New 3DS in time for the launch of this game.


    I'm actually holding out on them bundling the game/having an LE system for Mon Jun. It's the perfect game to bundle with the new 3DS IMO.


    #306538 Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate - Bigger and Better Than Ever?

    Posted by Bill Cipher on 07 January 2015 - 12:32 PM

    So looking forward to this. Monster Hunter 3U became of m one of my favorite 3DS/Wii U games and this will just be so much better...


    #306509 PC Projects. Got a project post it.

    Posted by Bill Cipher on 06 January 2015 - 07:20 PM

    I've been trying to get myself to begin the transition over to Linux since 2012 when I got my current laptop because lol Launch Windows 8. I keep getting a good install going for about 6 months only to have something go horribly wrong due to a wrong terminal command(Most recent case was me using Ubuntu for 3 months, switching to GNOME 3.12 as my Desktop Environment, beginning of month 6 I wanted to try Unity again, only to end up erasing all desktop environments. Was NOT fun trying to get stuff working on my partition for that after the fact.)

     

    I really should get back into using it, as I prefer my limited experience with Linux over Windows in every area but gaming. Doesn't also help that WINE isn't at the point where I can feasably run all of my games I play.




    #306406 Vita owners club

    Posted by Bill Cipher on 04 January 2015 - 12:52 PM

    You're lucky Ryudo / it's weird how some are like that, some aren't.
    How I rate the Vita games I'm playing right now:
    Street Fighter x Tekken - 9/10 (looks great on the Vita screen)
    MLB 14 - 8.9/10 (gameplay that surpasses the graphics)
    Freedom Wars - 8.6/10 (great!)
    Blazblue: Chrono Phantasma - 8.4/10 (pretty good fighter)
    Final Fantasy X Remaster - 8.3/10 (still not terrible, better than I remembered) (Sorry Shovel)
    Dynasty Warriors 8 XtremeLegend - 8.3/10 (Hyrule Warriors is better)
    DOA 5+ - 8/10 (okay)
    PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale - 8/10 (good but plays a lot like Smash)
    Super Monkey Ball Banana Split - 7.5/10 (eh, it's okay)
    How I would rate past Vita games I used to play:
    Disgaea 3 - 10/10 (fantastic)
    Gravity Rush - 8.9/10 (great game)
    Little Deviants - 7.8/10 (eh...)

    I'm beginning to think Ryudo's joke about you training to work at IGN is true...

    7 is a good game. Eh is 5-6 in ratings, add this to Sonic Boom(was it) getting a 6 even though it hits more then it misses and yeah, your whole rating system is wonky

    On topic, I've been enjoying the NFS:MW game that was given out during PSX. It's actually really fun, just a bit stupid with the varying different races and recommended stuff. It's really fun when the game goes well. However, I often myself having to reset a race because the AI either acts laughably stupid(I had a car somehow lodge itself sideways in a narrow alleyway when I was in third, effectively stalling the race because he couldn't drive properly) or when after one accidental twitch on the analog, I go flying, crash, and end up in last place despite having a decent lead beforehand. Add in the issues that I have with pop in at moments where A key segment of a race ends with me getting side checked by something that you as a driver can not control and it can get frustrating.

    Still, the actual racing is fantastic, the graphics are really good, and it's a nice pick up and play or a sit down for hours. Right now, I'd probably give it a 7/10.

    Other games I've played/Beaten:

    Little Big Planet Vita: 8/10
    Gravity Rush 7.5/10
    Minecraft: 6.5/10


    #306125 I Traded Wii U, 2ds, and games for PS Vita and games

    Posted by Bill Cipher on 28 December 2014 - 09:11 PM

    The Vita has life. I owned one when it first came out and games and game selection was horrible. Now it's better.

    I'm not going to make potshots at you, though, and about the 2DS/3DS. Why make them at me? Oh well though.

    No, the Vita does not have life. Of the 3 Games that Sony tried to hype up for Vita this year, 1 was a port, one was an enhanced version, and the other was Freedom Wars. Sony has abandoned the system in the west minus indie games, and indies, while I love them, I can get 95% of the games for cheaper on PC.

     

    They literally do not give a crap about the Vita, as they have shown numerous times over with game ports, release dates, the whole PSN Vita Bullcrap that happened, the fact that the biggest Vita News coming out of PSX was that we were getting a niche PS1 JRPG on Vita. That would be like Nintendo coming out at E3 and going "Guys, our big 3DS Game for 2015 is "Perfect Dark". " Not remastered, not improved, the same game as on N64.

     

    If Sony can't be bothered to care for their system, why the hell should anyone?




    #305931 FINALLY, new items on Club Nintendo (North America)

    Posted by Bill Cipher on 24 December 2014 - 12:39 AM

    Gotta say, I love NoA's whole price jumps on basically everything. Game cases were 250 Coins? 400 now. T-shirts were 500? 700 now. After all this is totally justified, as I mean there's so many unique options it's practically paying for the options

    #305657 Legend of Korra Book 4 discussion

    Posted by Bill Cipher on 19 December 2014 - 12:50 PM

    I'd say book 4 is the second worse season, though I don't know who is to blame, considering that Nick rushed it out and Bryke finished the stuff about a week before today. Balance was rarely brought up and the Red Lotus was an aborted arc.
