  1. I don't like how it has killstreaks, but it's a nice touch that you reload with a different animation after you get the ribbon.
  2. I have now realized, I cannot date anyone who does not like Seinfeld. It just can't work.

      I bet they were an anti-dentite.

  3. You know, I read that, but I already forgot. All I see is Asuka. Welcome.
  4. I'll buy this for whatever platform my friends get it for. I tend to get my multi games on the 360 though.
  5. There was a big difference in quality between the PS3 version, and 360 version of XIII (or, noticeable at least, your opinion to call it a "big" difference). Nit picky yes, but the PS3 version was clearly better, and the fans don't want the PS3 version to be gimped in any way because it's an exclusive. In since the PS3 version of XIII version was better, dunno why they still think it would be gimped, but hey! It is what it is. Plus, I prefer actual full, exclusive games instead of those lame attempts to make one better if it's multi. I can only think of Batman: AA doing that right now though. No real exclusives, and it'd degrade to that. No thanks. Go buy both systems. And, I think he means FF as we know it as in, will it have the same feel / experience (Right? D;). I think of FF as a broad term, just meaning magic somehow , and traditional Jap. stories. Other people get a bit more picky.
  6. I saw a video of this from the premiere event a few days ago. It looks veryyyy Kindgom Hearts esque. Few attacks then step back, combos, etc. I saw the protagonist take control of a mech (FFVI?!) and I saw a party member being controlled, and firing a magnum (looked like one anyway). Seems like it will turn out well; and he also qualmed everyones fears. It's still an exclusive. I read somewhere too that the protagonists name is... Ignis. That, is still in the air though; I don't know any Japanese. I'm sure someone will figure it out. I have the link. They will be released by the end of the month anyway in HD (other link is broken, or I can't see it. T_T); fucking 6 minutes long: http://finalfantasy-...r-revealed.html And Scans: http://finalfantasy-...pe-0-scans.html /Shameless plug for another forum I visit.
  7. Torchlight, you are too brutal.

      We playing the same Torchlight?

      Well, let me rephrase. Torchlight, you are too brutal on Very Hard Hard Core. T_T

    3. Hot Heart

      Sounds about right for Very Hard Hard Core.

  8. I don't mind this per se; but Lightning looks utterly ridiculous in that armor it showed her in for XIII-2. Oh, and Gran Pulse was lame; really. It was huge, but most of it was just a giant open field with some of the worst textures ever. Quite bland once the "oooohhhh, new" effect wore off.
  9. I do believe they stopped having "English" as part of my curriculum by the time I was in 8th or 9th grade. After that it was straight up literature. It was funny, because then suddenly in 12th when we were doing prep for the SAT, some people couldn't answer some questions about grammar, so our teacher literally took an entire week to go over the basics and such for the SAT. That to me, was a problem; but I digress. (Also, I don't mean to come off as a grammar elitist. I make mistakes all the time, and use far too many commas. ;D)
  10. When I text, I use proper grammer. I even put in apostrophes, capital letters, etc. I do use, lol, rofl, etc, etc because I think it helps to convey my state of mind. I'm pretty sarcastic and something people ask me if I'm kidding; adding rofl or lol helps. Also, about language evolving, I don't see how using "l8r" is an evolution, or any of the others. We now write how we speak. I understand that some people do it because it's faster, but those people also know how to type correctly (most of the time). The problem I have with it is, it's rubbing off on little kids who have cell phones, and other things. You should learn how to spell, write, etc before you use any of those. Kids are far too influential for them to see any of this and think it's fine at a young age. Also, I agree, most of the time when I get something like "wut r u doin" I think the person is an idiot; and most of the time they are (I have a few exceptions though, of course).
  11. I'm thinking eventually the tv will just be a massive all in one pc. It'll have a harddrive for storing shows, etc, and it will have tons of connections, and it will come with an actual keyboard, and a remote. You'll just pop up the interface over whatever you're watching, and go. Pretty much what the tv's are now, but better, and they will have an actual decent gui and operating system. I know he didn't invent the smartphone. xD But in my mind, whoever makes something popular, deserves the same amount of credit, or more than the creator. He spurred the smartphone craze (IMO). The iPhone sold like crazy, and now Android and other smartphones have gui options that look like the iPhone (not in colour or anything, just the way it works). Granted, most of that is because there is no other good way to organize your home screen and such now I suppose. He also created the tablet craze (IMO). Even Vizio is making a tablet and smartphone now. All of that is opinion though. It'll be interesting this summer to see what sells more if they roll out the iPhone5 (or whatever it'll be called) though, in since it will be on Verizon and AT&T. And some people like how there is just one iPhone and one iPad. It doesn't lead to fragmentation. I think if Android was on the same release on every phone, it'd dominate the iPhone, but, it never will be. It will always be fragmented (as of now anyway). That's a personal thing too though. I would rather just wait a year and get the software update, and be happy knowing I will get most of the functions, while still retaining my phone zippy speed. Some people would rather just go out and buy a new phone if the next Android update will slow it down, rather than miss out. If we were in the army, and at war or something, maybe those 0.0008 seconds would matter. But right now, I am sure my friends don't need them, and could spare the extra second or two or three keystrokes to spell correctly. I don't mind the typing instead of writing, I just think having everyone using lame abbreviations all the time is a bad idea. Eventually good grammar will just disappear as a standard. That agessss off though, if that was to happen.
  12. Atreyu - Blow Mannn, lead singers tattoos are nice.
  13. I don't like the cloud, because it's helping spur along the dissolution of physical media (Or, in my opinion it is). I like my cds, dvds, actual books, and so on. I love the cloud for some things. Steam cloud is nice, dropbox is nice, cloud contacts, etc, etc. I don't like the idea of having everything on my computer in the cloud, or having no physical media eventually because it's all going to be digital (that's not really the clouds fault though, that's just a new general theme, everything has to be portable, so digital works best for movies / music). They say it's still years away though until everything goes digital. I hope it's pretty far off. I have terrible handwriting. I'm left handed though, and was always forced to write in a right handed desk. Plus, they forced us to learn cursive for a year, and then just dropped that. So my handwriting looks crooked, and is cursive and straight hand combined. It's odd, and very hard to read.
  14. It's really weird to think that when I am 50 or 60, a cd player or and cds will be what record players and records are today. I hate the cloud, and that everything seems to moving that way. That aside, I do like the portability that we are introducing, and the integration. I like being able to seamlessly connect my phone to my pc, and then have my pc steam to my console and my tv (I really hate "smart" tvs though. I do not want to watch shitty, grainy youtube videos on my nice hd flatscreen tv; I don't even want to watch hd youtube videos on it). In a way too, I think Steve Jobs spurred technology forward. He created the iPod, and iTunes. Then the iPhone, and now the iPad. Smartphones, digital distribution giants, and tablets. He is taking another leave of absence for this health this year, and I am curious who is going to really shape the tech world if he dies (or, soon rather; he will obviously die). Not meaning to turn this into a hate fest about jobs either, I think most people even if they hate him can see what he has done to the tech world. I think, that eventually the growth will become too fast. The consumers won't be able to keep up, and we will want to revert; that's far off though, sadly. I miss when spelling properly was a good thing. I now see tons of campaigns using numbers in stead of letters, and such, and kids can't read / spell worth a shit now. We are becoming slaves to our electronic devices. I know people who can't read an analog clock; truly sad.
  15. Unless they patched it, ands you have the DLC, you can get them all in a private game. Make it password protected, and invite your friend. Use Skype, or call them so you can hear each other even though you're on other teams. I got the boltgun trophy the hard way, in a real game, but the flamethrower one is masochistic. Just do it the easy way. Plus, the maps aren't too good, so there usually weren't too many maps open for either of them. You can get all the ribbons this way too, but that, I would cry foul at, go get them in game. xD
  16. Deal with it. People troll, and grief all the time. Deal with it; nature of the beast, yo.
  17. Haha, I'm patient. I don't even really like 3D. Good to hear they are working on it at least though.
  18. But, do many people actually have a 3d monitor and glasses? And like I have said other places, 3D is a no go for me (especially for gaming) until it's glasses free, like the 3DS. I don't want to have to wear my glasses, then a pair of 3D glasses, and then have a massive headset on at the same time. No way.
  19. I really need to resist subbing to WoW, again.

    1. Commander Shepard

      Commander Shepard

      New mounts, new pets, new dungeons, all sorts of exciting things to see plus the new races. It's calling to you.

      Oh no, I got to level 83, I just got bored.

       

      Worgen ftw.

      I read "subbing" as in submission (BDSM), and Commander Shep's comment didn't help.

  20. I made a thread on it, and it's not like DoTa, fun however. I don't like dota, or HoN, or LoL. Most of the players I run into on any of them are usually way too serious. Like, seriously. I think everone who has been paired with me today has raged because I have no idea wtf I am doing in Bloodlines; I mean, really. It just released to the public today.
  21. Looks hot. I even liked SM3. They ruined it however, Rami should have said fuck you to the fans, and kept out Venom, or have taken out Sandman, and have it be about Venom, Carnage, and Harry. They nailed the Harry part, I thought.
  22. I like the new look of DA, I like the style. I never paused the game in the first one I think, so the faster pace won't bother me. Hawke is.... eh. It sort of fits, and sort of doesn't in my mind. I would have thought they could have come up with something better, but I can be satisfied with Hawke. The one thing I don't like, is "Hawke's" armor. It reminds me of Lost Odyssey, and god that shit was awful.
  23. I still need to see it. My favorite series so far is GitS: SAC, but my friend just went through Evangelion and said it was great so I'll probably watch it next. Evangelion is meant to be watched in the same way it was written: tripping serious balls on mushrooms. It's so fucking insane, and this is why I love it.
  24. Fuk yeh, only one who voted Evangelion.
