Just pre-loading. You can download the game now but it doesn't unlock until the retail release date next week.

Yeah, and I mean if it were my kids I'm still going to err on the side of caution, just saying I'm skeptical.

I'm skeptical that the 3D is actually bad for anyone's eyes. They used to say the same thing about sitting too close to the TV and it's just not true.

Plot hole! Cave Johnson wouldn't be opposed to a research project just because it's "dangerous".

2TB HDD. Wasn't sure whether to put it here or the other thread, eventually I decided it's related enough to games.

It was a 8800 GTX and yes it screamed, and wouldn't display anything.

Well it is a game-engine trailer. I'd guess they just didn't expect people to notice because of the speed of the shot and the obscuring objects (never underestimate the internet).

I don't think I've had any major parts fail except when it's my fault. Usually I just haven't connected something right, though I have had the occasional bad stick of RAM, a couple of hard drives die (always with enough warning for me to back them up, thank god) and I could never get the front USB ports on my old case to work. But again, it's almost always that I've done something wrong (that or a software problem) and can easily rectify it once I figure out what it is. I remember the first time I got a video card that actually required separate plugs from the power supply. I didn't realize that, so when I tried to boot it it made this continuous horrible high pitched scream. That was really stressful until I figured out what the problem was.

In my experience something always goes wrong when you build a new computer, so it's good when it's obvious like this. If everything appears to work it just means something's broken but isn't being up-front about it.

Have to take Toothy out behind the barn and shoot him after he eats the bullies.

idk, just some cheap Philips ones. Before that I was using the default iPod earbuds.

That's better than the previews made it look. As a general rule I'm not a fan of animal movies like that though. *Edit* - Though I would love to see a movie of Raptor Red.

Maybe I'm just weirdly gentle with mine, but I've never had a pair that lasted less than several years.

Kinda supposed to only be games you haven't played before, but it's not like there are really rules.

I use a cartridge razor, but instead of switching out the blades whenever it is the manufacturer recommends I just switch out the blades when they stop working. Which is a long, long time.

Not just that, but we're definitely running in to severely diminishing returns.

I'm just going to keep editing my last post, rather than making new ones. This will be my official post. Microsoft MS will tease the next Xbox, but won't focus on it The mention of the next Xbox will come at the very end of their show They will not announce a release date IF THEY DO announce a release date it will be November 2013 Nintendo Nintendo will show actual videos/graphics of actual games running on actual WiiU hardware, rather than the concept videos and PS360 videos like they did last year. There will NOT be a Zelda announced for the WiiU at or near launch (not before Holiday 2013 at the absolute earliest, probably won't be mentioned at all). Miscellaneous GTA V will be given a release date of October 2012

What on earth are your friends doing to their headphones?

I want to rephrase this so it's easier to score: 1) MS will tease the next Xbox, but won't focus on it 2) The mention of the next Xbox will come at the very end of their show 3) They will not announce a release date 4) IF THEY DO announce a release date it will be November 2013 So they way I would score that would be 4 is only scored at all if 3 is wrong, but if that's against the rules then I'd just drop prediction 4 altogether.

Idk, I'd consider myself a BttF fan but I just could not put up with that shit, it was awful. JP was really bad, but was more bearable for me.

Sorry, wasn't being sarcastic, the ellipsis was to indicate confusion at Argentina's fairly obviously unreasonable stance.

Yeah, I don't understand why people buy stuff that's maybe 20% cheaper but you have to replace 5 times as often. That is just not good money management.
