Honestly despite how cool everything sounds, you shouldn't get your hopes up too much. They hyped the ever living fuck out of Oblivion and left a lot of promises unfufilled, IIRC. Also, people praising the new engine don't realise that the engine is not the problem. The problem is Bethesda's awful QA team, who now have to test an ENTIRE ENGINE. It'll be buggy as fuck.

Well to be fair, Rock Band seems to basically have Guitar Hero beat out in most aspects, and there's not a whole lot of difference between the two.

But yeah Call of Duty blows. Well, Activision blows, more like. Give it a few years and they'll be slapping on cash shops and maybe even a monthly fee.

This is all sorts of relevant.

Well, one sort.

I guess it's just not the type of Radiohead music I generally like. It is growing on me a little though.

New album isn't really very good.

The main thing I've noticed people complaining about is the fact that instead of just giving you rather loose objectives and letting you solve how to do them yourself, the game insructs you in the various options you can take. That takes out a lot of the fun for me.

 Also the setting just blows, I liked the jungle.

From what I can tell, going entirely by word of mouth, they're neutering everything I liked about the first game.

Crysis 2 seems to just be gimping all the stuff that made me like the first one. Maybe I'll torrent it.

Isn't the maker of this a multi-millionaire now? Maybe he should hire some more people once he's done diving into his scrooge mcduck vault of gold coins instead of hiding under his indie status that's my 2 centimeters.
He's busy going on holidays, duh.

Still haven't got my account back and I've emailed several Mojang employees and the two support emails. I don't think I'm ever getting it back. Goddamn it.

I beat Ghost Trick last night, it was pretty great. Seems like if they ever do a sequel they'll have to use entirely different characters, but that's not much of a problem really.

I hope it doesn't really. They went for a quantity over quality approach with the characters in the last MvC game and it showed.

Yeah I wish I was in America. We never get snow, ever. I like snow. I guess it could be worse, I could be up in Queensland with that massive hurricane

This weather is really disgusting and horrible. Went to a music festival to see Tool the other day, almost melted. It's been around 40 degrees for the last few days (about 104 Farenheit I think?)

Apparently they want each character to have a distinct playstyle of their own, and to actually be useful. Basically they don't want agigantic roster which boils down to about 12 usable characters, like MvC2 had. That's probably the driving reason behind a lot of people's favourites not getting in.

They say you need a connection to the US servers of at least 150ms to even be able to play. Sounds like terrible netcode to me. I bet driving is still serverside.

Isn't the minimum wage in America really awful? IIRC it's like half of what we have in Australia.

Anyway yeah it's definetly a good thing to have, there are a lot of cheapskate employers out there.

When I saw this on the board index it said "how do i be a vegeta..."
I was pretty dissapointed

But yeah I'd have no idea where to start with being a vegetarian. Everything I know how to cook (which is not a lot at all) is pretty meat oriented. I know you said you don't want any meat substitues or whatever, but according to my mother who is an ex-vegitarian, nutmeat is great, she usually prefers it over real meat, even though she's not a vegetarian, so maybe look into that?

I will play this if/when Notch gets my account back from hackers.

So probably never, but still.
