From the same person who just recently got up on a high horse when someone else commented on their poor video game taste...

Well, that's a different person, and besides, that game is a total buzz kill. High praise, high hype, totally mediocre in the end and no fun.

Leave it to TiE to get called out and still insist he's right. :rolleyes:

Good thing: I'm going away to our summer log cabin out in the Finnish wilderness. 5-6 days of comp-free time should do me good. Maybe I'll finally have the time to read The World Without Us, when I'm not out playing with big guns and fishing.

Leave it to TiE to get called out and still insist he's right. :rolleyes: Well, pretty much. But that game sets you up. Looks great, great reviews, ends up being a big disappointment. At least that was my experience, I literally hated that game until I traded it back. It was hardly next gen when it came out, feels like an XBOX game with better graphics. But everything looks like it's made out of plastic, controls are stiff, and it's constantly blurry. Motion blur was used way too much in this game, whenever you turn your look, it blurs noticable, which was a huge distraction and just made everything hard to see.

So what you're saying is, even though someone else had played the game you got, and had a really negative experience, and relayed that to you...It is still different when you had a really negative experience with a game someone else got and relayed that to them?

....controls are stiff....

ya know what else is stiff?

your mom

lol tie is wrong guys lets ridicule him for 3 pages

Only 3 pages of ridicule is quitter talk

Nah, but ET you see TiE has like a bazillion posts in this thread and most are about some new video game he just got, so that makes him the foremost authority on all video games ever created. It's really simple, you see.

yes, what the asian with the mexican last name and white first name said

Only 3 pages of ridicule is quitter talkwhat about 8?

Now you're talkin!

Wow, talk about awesome. Anyway, I'm gonna be a dick all I want- Perfect Dark Zero sucked to me. But hey, just like VF5 is okay to me and total **** to Grooves, it may end up being alright for Rhett, and that's fine.

But anyway, I haven't watched this video yet, but in case ya'll didn't know, Game Trailers is doing retrospectives on all Star Wars games... and they just made one about Kyle Katarn, you know, our favorite video game hero?

Anyway, here's the link, I'mma watch it now. http://www.gametrailers.com/player/35912.html)

My grandma got Guitar Hero:Legends of Rock for her Wii. I've been playing it for about 6 hours now...

New toy:

http://www.crownglobals.com/site/images/stories/news/n03022008e3.jpg)

Lenovo IdeaPad Y510. My father works for IBM so I got a nice deal on it. Pretty good specs too, better than my desktop at least.

Intel Core 2 Duo T5550 1.83GHz
2 GB RAM
nVidia GeForce 8600M GT

Came with Vista Home Premium installed. I haven't used Vista before extensively so hopefully it will work out with everything I want it to do. I don't think the IdeaPad is known very well the way the ThinkPad is but it seems like a good machine so far and most reviews I read were very good.

Ordered this print...

About $75 dollars, 900 Goozex Points, and three weeks later:

That's six, count'em, six games... and I haven't played any of them yet. :V

The first four games I got used all together from one seller for around $73, shipping included. I ordered them June 17th, was shipped June 25th, and arrived from the far-away land of North Carolina on July 12th. So yeah... wait was pretty much teh suck on that. I got it back in the "holy ****, I'm rich" week of my 18th birthday.

And I got Gurumin and GRAW2 for 350 and 550 points, respectively, from Goozex with the $1 trade credit.

Oh, almost forgot:

I got Schizzoid and will pay for a lot of Rock Band DLC in the future. Got Working Man (Vault Edition), worth it even though I already have the other Working Man DLC.

Yes....

Cool, you'll get to hear the original Lyrics of the Arabian nights song, with "Where they cut off your ear if they don't like your face; it's barbaric, but hey, it's home." ( they didn't think that was politically correct, so it was replaced on the vhs with "Where the sand is immense and the heat is intense; it's pathetic, but hey, it's home")

Woah, only just did the tutorials in Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror (my first Syphon Filter game), and holy crap does it look good, looks like an early but good PS2 game. The controls are manageable, but just screams for the PSP to have a second analogue stick. The face buttons act as the second thumb stick, and the D-pad act sorta as face buttons. Looks promising, though.

Yes....

Such a kickass album, although I must say it's rare to find a guy admit to enjoying/buying Rob Thomas music. Way to go. :p

My good thing for today:

Whitewater rafting. Oh yes. It is good indeed. :D

Matchbox 20 Owns.

Rob Thomas solo, however, is simply okay. Only one of his solo songs I don't mind, but the others annoy me because they have way too little actual music and way too much backup singers that are mixed just as/louder than him. As a longtime Matchbox 20 fan, I was dissapointed with his solo work.

Just got back from a Road Trip to Sweden, with Pie™ and one other dude. Found a record shop with lots of old, cool stuff. =D

cell phone = low res

As a longtime Matchbox 20 fan, I was disappointed with his solo work.I hadn't really listened to Rob solo much before, actually - although of course it's hard to avoid hearing some of the songs on the radio. Still, it's definitely a good cd and worth a listen (or two, or three!). :D

ZZ TopZZ TopZZ TopZZ Top is awesome! So is Meat Loaf -- that stuff just makes me laugh every time. :D

$130 Refurb... errr, 5 spread stuck pixels (3 in a horizontal line, and two others in random places) that are only noticeable in very dark situations. Any light and they disappear. Way better than the dark spot on my old one.

This arrived after ordering it a couple days ago.

Nearly 1400 pages, too. :V About $26 with a gift card.

And some new RB DLC.

The Who:
"Baba O'Riley"
"Behind Blue Eyes"
"Eminence Front"
"Going Mobile"
"My Generation" (Live at Leeds)
"Sea and Sand"
"Who Are You"
"Young Man Blues" (Live at Leeds)

Baba O'Riley is pretty boring, first minute and a half has no guitar, teh sad. Behind Blue Eyes is pretty cool, constant changing notes like Simple Man and Don't Fear the Reaper. Eminence Front has a freaky intro, **** load of HO-POs. My Generation feels pretty epic, bass is only tier 2, but it feels like a tier 8 or even 9, I only got 3 stars (!). Young Man Blues is pretty crazy and frenetic, and somewhat epic.

Still have a bit over $10 left on an itunes card so I'll probably get something Pink Floyd, I'm thinking Piper at the Gates or Animals, I have all the most popular ones.

I have no more baby teeth!

...but then again, I can't feel half my face cause of the knock out gas, and sort of want to die...
