I had never heard of the Pokérus, until last night. My Kadabra was infected in SoulSilver, and then I let all of my Pokémon catch the Poképocks. I am very much pro-vaccinations for my Pokémon via natural transmission.
I put three Pokémon in the PC, allowing me to infect my future Pokémon.

I know this is far away, but which would be safer to backup the installer files or the installed game? I am specifically talking about the ps3Fragems wrote: Stuff like that will stay on the system as long as you download it before the servers go down but once you get rid of the system or uninstall it it's gone forever if they drop the servers.
Re: Random Gaming Thoughts
For some reason i decided to check if there was news about a posible retail release for Yakuza 5, because i was bored i guess, and i stumbre upon the wonderfull thread on neogaf and the petition to at least get a limited phisical edition. About 70% of the answers where "you should be thankfull that it's gettin release at all"... WHY? It's a freaking product that and i will PAY FOR IT!
The reason why i never buy digital is for two reasons; A) You don't own the stuff, it's just a rental (GOG is the esception) B) I live in a place where light shortcuts are very likely to happen and it will take me days to download a game of a size like that.

Re: Random Gaming Thoughts
I'm not sure. I've never really bothered backing up my console games since the only digital games I have on there are the freebies through PSN/Xbox Live and I've never bothered trying to preserve them. I would say it would probably be fine to save the installers if you wanted to save space on your back up drive. Might play around with this tomorrow and see how well it works.RCBH928 wrote: I know this is far away, but which would be safer to backup the installer files or the installed game?

I've mainly confined my Digital purchases to the PC since I don't believe Steam or any of these larger services will be going anywhere soon. Plus with DRM the way it is retail copies are more troublesome then digital copies anyways.

Re: Random Gaming Thoughts
Speaking of which, noise and I just started playing this with fastbilly1 and another buddy. Now I have questions about how the game currently work. Argh, I loved Titan Quest, and this hits the same itch! Now I want to build a bosskiller again!Jmustang1968 wrote:Your read my article noise? I demoed Grim Dawn. Have it on Steam already but I typically wait to play games until they are final. I really enjoyed it though.

oh glad you bumped this, as I missed John's post to me earlier.Ack wrote:Speaking of which, noise and I just started playing this with fastbilly1 and another buddy.

@JM: No I actually missed your article. I had only looked into Grim Dawn cuz Fast wanted us to play. Like you, I generally prefer to only play finished games. This goes for episodic releases as well. But I go w/ the flow, so yeah we played it last night. Had fun.
Re: Random Gaming Thoughts
Yeah, it reminds me so much of a darker Titan Quest, and I had a blast in that game. I had two mains I would pull out, one for singleplayer and one for multiplayer.
Singleplayer was a Rogue/Hunter hybrid who could place a debilitating curse on someone and then shank them using a special ability for massive loads of damage. I one-shotted some of the big bosses in the game with that character, and very, very few took more than two hits from it.
Multiplayer I was friendlier, so I played a Nature/Storm mage hybrid who healed everybody and mostly relied on a horde of pets for protection. That meant our group of six or so adventurers was actually a group of 11, all raring to go.
