Yeah, but this is EA. They wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire.

Speaking of Bioware, thank the gods Hambeast isn't part of the Mass Effect team.

I couldn't get past the third sentence without wanting to punch my computer monitor due to her illegible sentence structure. Good god, holy shit.

I'm convinced that people who say, "LOL grammer is stoopid n e way, who cares?" have never read a book in their lives. If they had, they would realize just how DIFFICULT it is to read poor grammar and sentence structuring. It's downright frustrating.

Oh Come on Now was it really That bad, bad enough that You really Wanted to punch your monitor? That would not be a wise thing to do and Would be bad, because your Monitor would get damaged and your Hand would probably also be damaged real Bad.

yeah i actually value good writing a lot when it comes to books. right now i'm reading Snow Crash (cyberpunk book) which so far is really interesting, but there are some places where the sentences feel awkward and it just seems like the author doesn't have a more clever way to get down the descriptions he wants. not enough to really detract, but you can definitely tell when compared to the truly amazing authors.

i don't think that book can possibly be real though, no one can be that stupid.

also fuck all of you who have ps3s/xbox360s. the Syndicate demo is out and i SOOOOOO want to fucking play it, yet they haven't put it on pc. it's pretty much a slap in the face considering syndicate was fucking born on the pc, is a cult classic among some oldschool hardcore pc gamers, and is just meant to be pc and not dumbed down console shit. the developer has a good track record and it looks awesome as shit, plus they've been keeping a lot of things from the series/staying true to it it seems, but the lack of a demo is fucked the hell up and their excuse "WE'RE TRYING TO MAKE SURE THE GAME CAN BE THE BEST IT CAN BE SO NO PC DEMO HURRRR" is bullshit.

At the very least, Reckoning should have some pretty good music. Anything that is influenced by John Williams should be good.

The songs they have up represent the kind of music I really love in games. That's why the last really awesome game score was the one from Lords of Shadow.

FUCK DUDE! WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME? I'm on Bacca's Blade in a guild full of insane people.

I just did!

I'm on both the "Hex Droid" and "The Exile's Crystal" servers though, so I'm not really planning on getting onto another one

Stormo.

 

[refraction]

Lol Stormo made my day.

 

[Enemy242]

I'm curious to see how Reckoning is, but I don't think i'll be buying it unless the reviews are amazing. It looks good yeah, but the art design I don't really dig, the whole setting is kinda meh and it kinda has to prove itself to me. The only things I'll be buying day 1 in the near future are Syndicate (FUCK YEAH FUCK YEAH) and ME3 (fairly fuck yeah).

 

[El Stormo]

Stormo.

Lol Stormo made my day.

It made you laugh. It made me cry

Also, gunfight at the O.K. Cherral!

try the demo

 

[Talking Backwards]

try the demo

Yeah really that's your best bet for now; although keep in mind that it's also based on three month old code, and the team who actually developed the game had nothing at all to do with the demo itself. Many of the assets were taken out to save file size space, and many bugs were introduced because of this. Pretty much every review/preview of the release canidate claims that almost none of the demo bugginess exists on the version that they are playing.

I also found this pretty fucking hilarious and completely truthful:

Ha!

What's the cheapest way for me to buy a used 360? Never got to finish Skyrim cause mine broke. Also need to do the ME re run. Amazon?

No idea. Amazon's "discount" for used systems is anywhere between $15 - $50. I'd still not buy it used unless it was 25% off.
As for games, I picked up a used ME for a friend recently for like 13.99 plus $4.xx shipping.

 

[Det Som Engang Var]

ME1 and 2 I can borrow from my best friend, just need the console. Plus I still have the Skyrim Steve bought me. Just need to know the cheapest way I can get a 360. Harddrive or not.

The funniest (read: saddest) part about this is the fact that many native English speakers would have never understood your corrections, nor would they have made the same corrections.

Just need to know the cheapest way I can get a 360.

1. Crowbar
2. Door/window
3. Profit
