All this talk of religion is reminding me of Deus Ex for some reason.

*shakes his bag of multitools*

^ Nifty.

Electric company turned off our area's exchange to do work on it. I forgot about it and didn't end up saving the PSDs from my current photoshop works so I lost most of my original smudge work. Teach me to leave photoshop open and rarely save.

In other news, reading a fuckton of new manga now and adding it to my manga favourites. I have been craving some on-going series that I can read every week or so and follow the stories. Complete mangas are good but I think they lack a long term love which is what I am looking for currently.

^ I know the feel, bro.
It's sad, but the number of weekly manga that fit my tastes is exactly 0. All my ongoing series publish either once in 2 weeks, once a month or once in 2 months :'(

Lovely everywhere hasn't updated in like what 9 months?

Yeah, I hate it when mangakas go on hiatus like that. It's usually the good ones too. Berserk, Gantz, HotD, Evangelion...they all take ridiculously long breaks.

Just received my copies of the first four volumes of A Song of Ice and Fire... Dude, and I cannot start before tomorrow night.

Doesn't Photoshop have an autosave feature? Or was that something else.

It's got a very good backstory that involves some conspiracies and religious orders. I recommend you drop everything and play it. Remember the HD patch too, it makes everything slightly nicer looking.
Yet to play the DX3 leak, one day...

▲ photoshop cs3 below doesn't seem to have autosave

Good. I actually owned the PS2 Version, but after hearing it's kind of crappy, I immediatly sold it.

Whoever told you that deserves to be executed.
...wait, Deus Ex never had a PS2 version. The sequel did, and that wasn't as good, although it was still very good.

SirSkyRider · « **Reply #30212 on:** July 07, 2011, 10:29:58 AM »

Hmmm... strangely enough. So Deus Ex for PS2 is actually Deus Ex 2? Why then does it have the cover artwork for Deus Ex 1?

Deus Ex had a PS2 version (although it was called "Deus Ex: The conspiracy" in some places)... Deus Ex 2 had an XBox version only (besides the PC one).

Because it's (a slightly dumbed down version of) Deus Ex 1.

SirSkyRider · « **Reply #30214 on:** July 07, 2011, 10:40:00 AM »

Well, I can imagine THAT. PC games ported to console usually turn out crappy.

newy · « **Reply #30215 on:** July 07, 2011, 10:50:20 AM »

It's the other way round. Console ports are horrible...

froody1911 · « **Reply #30216 on:** July 07, 2011, 10:56:04 AM »

Yes, they are. But name one good PC to console port. The truth is, all ports are usually horrible, no matter from where to where.

SirSkyRider · « **Reply #30217 on:** July 07, 2011, 10:57:30 AM »

Agreed. Well, there are some usable ports, but usually they're pieces of shit.

x5ga · « **Reply #30218 on:** July 07, 2011, 11:01:48 AM »

Well, I don't mind PC-to-console ports being shitty, since I mostly play on my PC... what I do mind is that they're dumbing down my precious PC RPGs so that they can port them to consoles easier (*cough*dragon age 2*cough*).

SirSkyRider · « **Reply #30219 on:** July 07, 2011, 11:03:58 AM »

I'm not really into western-style rpgs, so I won't comment on that one.
