  1. They won't turn into cheating (e.g., impossible reaction times) AIs will they? Otherwise, they're pretty cool. Not sure why they're tied to a physical figurine.
  2. Two fingers and a thumb. I have no idea why they won't autoplay. Not my upload.

    EVE Online

    EVE is a game that will always be dear to my heart even though I never played it. What goes down in that game is quite legendary. Every so often one big alliance or another performs a major offensive that can involve hundreds if not thousands of players through an entire week, something even longer, of battles and skirmishes. Then of course you got the occasional butterfinger, who is entrusted by the alliance/group, in charge of a Titan who jump himself only instead of the whole fleet which usually ignites a sudden battle as opposing factions comes to kill it and the butterfinger's alliance come to defend it.

  5. So, I got caught up with South Park for this season. Good Lorde, that was a fun way to spend 3 hours. Also someday Wendy is going to snap. Her or Butters. Butters has been getting bolder on calling Cartman on his bullshit, I think.
  6. http://www.npr.org/blogs/thetwo-way/2014/11/20/365519963/obama-will-announce-relief-for-up-to-5-million-immigrants So Obama did that. I'm a bit conflicted a bit but I like it.
  7. As you can see, that's the easy part. Having the probe and especially the lander working 100% is the tougher part.
  8. The Hobbit films. First one was cool but needed more Smaug. Second one filled that itch. Snowpiercer Weird movie but it is unique. It kept me thinking what will happen.
  9. Popcorn. I'm discovering the whole wide world of different seasonings. I always made kettle corn but never regular popcorn until last Friday during Movie Night when I made it with oil, some salt and drizzled with butter. I was surprised to find that plain popcorn wasn't really plain in flavor. So cue today where I tried adding black pepper which works. Now I think I'll be toying with the idea of other different seasonings.
  10. ^ Guess my reaction when this video starts. I should really expand my horizon. I really only stick to the proven few bands...

    There is a good chance that we'll start seeing 1 TB SSDs starting to be in reach for us regular Joes. In two years it might be feasible to have a PC running just SSDs...

  13. Apparently most of the problem is due to AMD hardware. Let that sink in.
  14. Downsampled Valkyria Chronicles is quite pretty.

      It's actually kind of surprising due to VS's CANVAS engine being based around the PS3 (VC2 and VC3 uses it too...). For most games, I've heard that porting from the PS3 is a bitch so I expected way more hiccups in this port. So far the only major issues I see is the pre-rendered cutscene and wonky physics past ~75 fps. Those two are pretty understandable. Also, yeah, got to consider Japanese devs.

       

      Color me impressed.

      It's kind of sad that the fact that just because it's a non-shit port it's being praised. This should be the standard.

      Can't say that I can disagree with that statement. In an ideal world, all ports will not be shit.

  15. I never played FFXIII-2 so I might hop on board when it drops down to $10 or less even though I do have a distaste for FFXIII (which I may also get eventually). Kind of hard to justify shitting on games if I haven't played them enough or beaten them. It will also be interesting to have a Final Fantasy game where I have the option for Japanese audio. I'm honestly kind of floored that they are including that.
  16. Since I don't recall the multiplayer from Halo 3 onwards, take what I say with a grain of salt but I think they revert back to no loadouts. Awesome since loadouts is kind of a pain. The armor abilities seems varied enough and have good enough pros/cons to make it interesting. It'll be interesting how it'll all pan out in the end... Also it is odd. I'm quite certain that I won't be getting a X1 but Halo man... it still calling.
  17. People are (relatively) gobbling it up. Currently #4 on Steam and #1 on GMG. It's fantastic that it is having another day in the sun even going against Assassin Creed Unity and Call of Duty Advance Warfare. Judging on the spots it holds on Steam and GMG, it is priced just right. What personally put me over the edge on double-dipping is that everything points to that the port is totally fine. It also helps that I don't have a copy of VC and I never played the DLCs. Hopefully SEGA will take note and aim for the other games as well, despite them moving away from the tone of the first game. With that said, maybe SEGA can also note that they should do another game with a tone like VC1 on a major platform.
  18. 5'10" or 5'11", depends on the day and what shoes I'm wearing. Occasionally I will round myself to 6' for rough scale purposes. My older brother and I are about one head taller than our parent's generation and we absolutely tower over our grandparents generation. Better nutrition in action but I guess genetics is a factor since, generally, both sides of my family are considered taller than average for their area(s).
  19. For Legendary on Halo 2, I just wished that the instant fail if someone died was optional. There is definite fun to be had to walk through corridors littered with your bodies. I actually didn't tried co-op in 3 or 4 since I'm a couch purist. It isn't the same over Xbox Live. I would settle for a LAN co-op though. Also I got to agree with Ethan. The Flood in 2 were worse than CE and 3 since, well, they were the same as Halo CE. They had a shake up with Halo 3 which made them more fun to fight.
  20. New Mombasa on legendary... fuck those snipers though the encounter with the hunters is great.
  21. After all these long years, I have became an adult and yet I still care that this is canon... wow.
  22. Interstellar Holy fuck. While some of the science are odd but it is such a fun movie. There are really no dull moments in my opinion. Some people's actions you had to question but I think I could give them a pass with it considering what the hell they were doing and looking at.
  23. Django Unchained Kind of an odd movie but fun which is pretty much all Quentin Tarantino's movies.
