I like that blogspot layout of yours, Jake.

Just like your hair, it's prettier than mine.  Bastard.

We are at CdM stalk alert 5!

I really like the story so far. Only about 40% done with the main story. My main criticism so far is it feels too short. Much of my eight hours in the game has been spent doing open-world game sorta things, like fleeing the police after stealing a boat and smashing pedestrians into my open car door while I'm driving at 80 mph.

I just finished this last night and yeah I feel the same way.

I played the Demo.  Man, Mono has it harder then I ever thought.  Hong Kong is fucking brutal.

I've also played the demo. I thought it was pretty good.

I'll probably get it, but not imedialty.  I want to get the CIV 5 expansion first.  I'd like to finish Deus Ex first as well, but man I can't get into the game.

I dropped off on Deus Ex Human Rev. Keep meaning to finish but get bored during boss fights.

[Caliga]

Same.  The boss fights were a huge mistake.

Jacob, what kind of BS is this? I can't remap WASD to the arrows.

I'm pirating the damn game as retribution!

Wow.  SquareEnix has doubled down on the PC version- v 1.5 just out with the following updates:

Yeah, I got this game for free with my new video card and that is annoying me as well.  Why can't I map the keys to whatever other keys I want to? 

[Jaron]

Why on Earth would you want to remap WASD to arrows? Maybe you can't because you shouldn't.

[Caliga]

That's how I've always played PC games like this, FPS-style games, etc.

Yeah me to. Not being able to remap would be a huge thing for me if it wasn't for the fact that I'm playing Sleeping Dogs with a controller.

[Caliga]

I may just break down and get one since I'd been thinking about doing that for a while and this is basically a console game anyway.  Which controller do you have?
