  1. Beavis and Butthead Courage the Cowardly Dog Xplay back when they actually made fun of games and were hilarious. Web Soup Attack of the Show before kevin periera became a douche. The Drew Carrey Show
  2. Holy shit they're old! Happy b-day!
  3. Facebook, News/gaming news, and forums. Always in that order and no particular reason why lol. I dont have the luxury of time in the morning to cure my morning wood cause i have to commute to work.
  4. i put too much sprinkles on my brownie batter yogurt...
  5. Thats what i've been saying for the past few weeks lol. LA and boston are gonna put up a fight. Maybe there will be an upset somewhere. LA vs Pitts would also be very interesting.
  6. I stayed away from beta. I didnt want any preconceptions of the game such as playing it before it was released. I wanna walk into it with a fresh experience. So far I'm liking the new implementations and the dynamics such as deadly terrain and freezing to death are intriguing.
  7. I second this. Preordered from Greenman gaming. Got it for $45. Cant wait!!
  8. buh bye tortellini...i mean tortorella. http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=672384&...vid=DL|NHL|home and the sharks choke again. What a big surprise. The cup is going to be hawks vs Pittsburgh unless by some miracle the red wings win tonight. Its gonna be a great game.
  9. I'm not sure which game i should start playing again. LOL or DOTA...hmmmm
  10. Ya ya toronto did a great job and if anything im shocked that NY just killed over. Chicago is doing the same, but redeemed themselves last night. Detroit vs Pitts for the cup would be fun.
  11. Buahahahaha! thought this was funny.
  12. I'm glad sony doesnt have fees for being online, but i cant shake the thought of how many problems sony has had to deal with when it came to its online services. I've never had those issues, but have read many articles about them. Most people say that the xbox live gold is worth it because you get what you pay for. It works and doesnt break down on you. I agree parker and thats mainly why im getting a system is to play certain sports games and other exclusive games like War Thunder and AC4. I prefer my FPS to be on computer. I remember playing Bad company 2 on 360. It annoyed the hell out of me. Some console games are looking very interesting like killzone shadows fall, watch dogs, and destiny. I'll probably wait on NFL 25 and get it for ps4. Not sure if their going to release NHL 14 for ps4 but im definitely picking that game up.
  13. Its all going to come down to E3. Sonys conference was much more impressive then MS's. They showed that their system was geared for gaming. MS only seemed to show that you can watch TV and surf the net with theirs. Still alot more information to be revealed.
  14. I'm not saying your wrong Pand and in fact it does make sense. I'm well aware of the industry, but most console gamers aren't. It sucks to make that generalization it really does, but its true. If they did understand then there wouldn't be so much backlash over used games. People would understand and be like o yes! the developers do deserve more money and and the money goes straight to them because it is their creation that we have been graced with playing. Its not going to happen that way. People like deals, discounts, used items, and so on. If i felt that console gamers were ACTUALLY aware of the gaming industry and how it works I'de be like o ya they wouldnt have a problem at all. It makes sense. Sadly, they dont and there will be consequences as per my examples explained earlier. Are those mistakes and or casualties small enough for MS to continue down this path? If this is the sound thing to do and the right thing to do so developers actually receive the money they deserve from their work then why is the public against it? Btw Evo has 2 xbox 360s (1 for him and 1 for his brother). It would suck for him if he were to buy a game then have to pay for it a second time for his brother to use it. The always online thing didnt work and is downright sucky. Btw i apologize for being a bit snippy earlier kirk. Wasnt necessarily in a good mood yesterday. Also is MS doing this for the developers? Is it guaranteed that these fees will go directly to developers? How much of the fee will go to them if any at all?
  15. Agreed. That guy is a tool. Don Cherry for Prime Minister!
  16. MS and the 360 have always had superior services. It makes sense with the yearly fee, you get what you pay for. What i dont understand is why are they trying to get rid of the used gaming market at all? To be honest i havent touched a console in awhile. Sold my 360 and i got a ps3 for free and I dont even play it much. Its not so much that people are moaning and groaning over backwards compatibility, but they all seem to be enraged by the whole charging fees for used games. They see it as nothing but a cash grab. Some of the examples I've seen are like people wanting to play certain games on other peoples consoles. Like when they meet up for parties and such. Secondly what if a house has more then 1 system? Does that mean you have to buy the game 4 times for each system? I'm failing to see the drive behind what MS is doing. I dont see a clear motive aside from angering console gamers. I'm not even completely sold on getting a PS4, but from what im learning about the new xbox so far just seems a bit disappointing. Yes the cloud sounds exciting. It has possibilities. Does it mean that there will come a time where PS4, xbox, and pc gamers can compete against eachother? What im intrigued is that the hardware on these systems come up to par in regards to PC's. Does this mean that there will be easier ways for developers to transition their console games to PC since the hardware is relatively similar? No more crappy ports? No more 1 year late release dates behind consoles? Maybe PC will be a new market for console developers. Then it will also depend on functionally. Like you said goodwin it goes with everything else in your house. Connectivity/syncing ect. E3 is going to be chaotic this year and make a world of a difference when the consoles are put through the tests.
  17. http://www.theverge.com/2013/5/21/4352314/...e-game-installs Games have to be installed. Once they are installed you dont need the disc anymore hence why second installation has the "fee". I'm not going to argue semantics and get into a critical thinking match. Buying a product is buying a product. They are all products. Their going to try and make it like a computer, but its not going to work. People will oppose it. PC gaming and console gaming have always been separated so justifying that this way is the "right" way, even though used games have always existed since consoles were first developed is breaking a huge gigantic mold that has been in place for years. You are right i mean why not? Why shouldnt MS and sony make their consoles exactly like computers? Seems harmless enough, but the public will reject it. Their attempting to change something that has always been there into something that seems like a tax to those who play on consoles. Doesn't matter if pc gamers disagree and say o we pay full price ya'll should get over it. It's a totally different ball game when it comes to consoles. I dont dislike pc gaming at all. In fact i enjoy that i can easily upgrade my parts and play any game i want. Thats whats awesome about it. I definitely sway more towards games that are on sale. Would that mean that they are going to do the samething as well where as consoles just discount their games since no one can buy used anymore?
  18. PS4 is going to win the console war if MS keeps up with the fees. Imagine if you had a game and you wanted your friend to borrow it OR you wanted to buy a used game from Amazon or gamestop if you will. You will be charged for buying the game ALONG with paying $40-$60 extra just to activate said game. To me that is borderline greed and idiotic. People have been sharing games and selling used games since who knows when. Its a huge market. It doesn't have to make sense or be ethical because in the gaming world its A BAD IDEA. How would you feel if you could never buy a used car? Buy a used piece of electrical equipment? What if your friend wanted to give you his 60 inch TV cause he was moving BUT you couldnt use it because its locked to his "house" or whatever? Its the same scenario. Games will be locked once they are used to that specific system. Like i said, it doesn't matter if this is the "right" way or if its hypocritical. The gaming world will reject it and they already are. If MS keeps it then PS4 will come out on top and that is if they dont do the samething. I agree with engle on the support aspect. Sony has always been lacking in the tech support while MS dominates that area. I've never had a bad experience with my 360, but I'm not liking where the xbox one is going with all these fees being tacked on.
  19. The lines are being drawn. Xbox one has been officially announced today and honestly the announcement has been met with ALOT of backlash....mostly because of the fees that gamers will have when they attempt to play used games. Games will be installed onto your account and your xbox, but if other people wanted to play the game they would have to pay around $40-$60 extra just to activate the game itself even after purchasing it used. http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/05/21/xbo...y-game-installs http://www.gamespot.com/features/xbox-ones...ed-tax-6408691/ I cant even begin to comprehend why microsoft is trying to monopolize the used gaming sector. It astounds me to no end. Both systems seem relatively the same at this point and the only difference between them so far is fees and exclusives. The hardware on both is nifty and its to the point to where its as powerful as a PC's processor, which could also mean that console games being moved over to PC games wont be useless buggy ports. http://www.ign.com/wikis/xbox-one/PS4_vs._...omparison_Chart I was much more impressed with what sony had to offer. As for Microsoft...im deeply disappointed. Waiting on june 10th to be convinced that Sony is smart enough to not charge gamers to play used games or to put all these stupid ass fees onto them. Plus you have to have Kinect plugged into the new xbox or it will not function. I wasnt even going to partake in the console wars this time around, but the exclusives and visuals that i see on PS4 have me very interested. Games like AC4, GTA5, Watchdogs and Destiny have peaked my interest. I think this whole used game thing may have dug microsoft an early grave. There are talks that they may reverse this decision, but the damage itself is probably done. What yall think? Time will tell when Sony announces what the PS4 will offer.
  20. Has anything changed in DOTA 2? I've been meaning to give it another shot, but havent had the chance cause of work. I played LoL for a bit and enjoyed it and i found DOTA 2 a bit more enjoyable. Not sure why.
  21. Next order of business. Contact facebook and let them know they were harassing a 2 year old. He just wanted some friends!
  22. http://www.geek.com/review/review-microsof...g-mouse-609811/ The only mouse that can fit in my big ass hand. Tried the razer series and they were all WAY too small. Had to get this from new egg.
  23. Even if LA wins the series their not going to get past the hawks. I want detroit to win dont get me wrong, but i cant see them beating the hawks at this point and once LA gets past the sharks since they ALWAYS CHOKE...the hawks will eat LA alive. As much as i wanted to believe the sharks had a chance it quickly went away when they let 2 goals in within a matter of seconds....ya theres the sharks i know.
  24. Its not a big accomplishment lol. San Jose always chokes. The Stanley Cup...where no shark has ever been before.
