Speccy says it's an Intel Graphics chip yes. Oh goodie, the Intel driver update page is unavailable.

Edit: Okay went to the main intel page and did a search for the chipset and found the driver update. Restarted my computer and I'm good to go. Currently downloading some LoL updates, thanks.

For the LoL challenge, what do we have to take a screenshot of? The score screen after we finish a game? It doesn't show that it was on intermediate difficulty.

I'm off to do an errand right now but I'd like to do this with neogaf people if possible. I just played a beginner game (never played online before) and I got 9 assists. As long as we keep track of assists we should all be able to get the challenge?

I'm not sure if this is 100% sure but I think the icons next to the character names/portraits mean what difficulty they're set at.

I just took a screenshot of the final scoreboard after the game as print-screen didn't work in game
 
When does a game end? I got 3 assists and I don't know what the hell I'm doing besides dying all the time.

I think it ends when one team makes it to the other end and destroys the main building. Or the other team surrenders or quits.

This reminds me of trying to get the achievement for Rise of Immortals during the recent Steam Winter Sale.

I'll probably download and try it later since it is free to play.

Finished the PS Heroes challenge, besides having to fight the motion controls this one is VERY easy.

I sync'd my trophies, and submitted the challenge is there anything else that needs to be done for PSN stuff?


Anyone know anything bayonetta? I have the game sitting on my desk, I played pretty far about a year and a half ago but I don't remember crap about this game. Is that trophy hard?

After that puddle challenge, I think I need a break from playing games for XP. I'm gonna play some Jak and Daxter. I bought KoA with my free game perk and the AI said that was going to be a challenge in the future so I'll have to get cracking on that as well.

That trophy is beating the game on the hardest difficulty. Yes, it's hard.

I'm doing it right now and yeah, you've got to play the game three times. Normal - Hard - Climax.

I should have just done it on my old gamertag where I already had hard mode unlocked.

Mahala something? I don't remember what makes things easier in the game. Aside from today, I haven't played it since it came out.

But yeah, iirc, the good accessories are something you unlock after you beat the game the first time.

I don't know the name but it makes the game super easy but it costs like 5million halos... do you get 2-5x the amount of halos after beating the game? because it seems impossible to get 5m in a normal playthrough.

It's the Immortal Marionette, and I think it's 100k halos if you beat the game on very easy or easy difficulty where it's used by default.

The item is the Climax Bracelet. It makes every attack a Wicked Weave attack. 5 million is not really hard to come by, there is a few very good farming spot!

??? I just searched for "mass effect" (without the quotes) and several games popped up.

Yeah, I did that about 2-hours ago and nothing popped up. Worked for me now though and I preordered the limited edition. Cost $22. Nice.

Future Shop's site seems to be really buggy though. It crashed me back to the log-in screen more than once. I thought I had lost the ability to use the code for a second.

Haha, no, i'm not going to pull my hair out trying that Bayonetta achievement. That's simply too much.

lol how long does that take? I heard it's just really stupid after 5 minutes

There are 48 levels, most are less then a minute long once you've figured it out. However you're going to be playing some levels 20, 30+ times to beat them. It took me an hour to beat one level. You often don't have time to react to new obstacles and are forced to die and start from the beginning and progress a little bit further until you get to the next obstacle.

If you haven't started yet, I doubt you'll be able to finish it by tomorrow.

Overall I liked it, the satisfaction of completing a level was worth the frustration IMO.

I just wish there was more time to react. There were balls hard levels in Donkey Kong Country Returns that I beat on my first or second attempt because it gave me a chance to react and I made the right decisions. With this game there are many points where you need to be traveling at the exact right speed and there is no way you could know ahead of time what that is.

Ahhh, that makes more sense! I found the marionette mentioned in a few posts about the achievement and figured that was the item he was thinking of. Seems like it might be worth farming for, too.

Man, I am having way more trouble deciding what to use my free game code on than I expected. I already got everything I wanted to from the holiday season due to a bunch of great sales in and around boxing week, I'm set for the upcoming games I really want (Diablo 3 and Mass Effect 3 I preordered for $40 from last year's E3 deal) so that leaves me debating over games that merely look okay.

Right now I'm waffling between Final Fantasy XIII-2 (I hated XIII) and The Darkness 2. There's also SSX out in a couple of weeks, I guess.

What has everyone else used theirs on?
