Re: PS4 Reveal at E3
At the very least it shows that Microsoft is behind. Either with the development and optimization of its games, or with its devkits.

It's juvenile sure, but the xbox one IS being legitimately deserving of the moniker in the eyes of most people.JLTucker wrote: The same as those saying "Xbone"?

Re: So, New Xbox Reveal In About 14 Hours.
Dude, MMO's have been doing this for fifteen years. They can "take away" a game you've spent hundreds of dollars on. Turns out you get no sympathy if you're a pirate or cheater and get caught? This has nothing to do with whether you're a cheater or not. Also nothing to do with being a pir...

Buy an xbox one, and you cannot participate in a class-action suit. They wouldn't do this if they weren't expecting class-action suits to happen, which says quite a bit.

Much of both are probably the people who buy early, then capitalize on shortages and sell to desperate people for profit.Admiral Valdemar wrote:Both consoles have apparently sold out on Amazon pre-orders. Only Sony's is at the top of the ranking for gaming sales.

I buy on ebay. So there's some ebay fee included I'm sure, but basically the money goes to the previous owner.bilateralrope wrote:When you bought second hand, did you usually buy from a store or did you buy directly from the previous owner ?

Re: So, New Xbox Reveal In About 14 Hours.
More than half of my console game library is secondhand so attaching a fee to second-hand games is a turn-off for me. I like being able to let friends borrow one of my games so they can try it out and buy it for themselves if they like it. Now Microsoft are denying such a thing, but another official...

Re: Have you ever seen a UFO?
One time I saw a silvery, ovoid something floating in the sky. Not too far away, but not close either. It was midday. Also a couple of helicopters were hovering in position some distance away from the object, surrounding it. I stared at it for about a minute before it hovered over and disappeared fr...

Re: ‘Justice is death’ for alleged shooter in Batman rampage
If not the death penalty, then life sentence? It takes money to keep someone fed and relatively healthy and confined in a prison for life. So not only will the people have to lose twelve of themselves to the guy, they also have to foot his living expenses for the rest of his life? Why can't we just ...

Re: Tropes vs Women in Video Games pt 1 is out.
In an ideal world we wouldn't treat a woman who shoots up baddies and saves the world any different from a man who does the same, but our society considers doing those things to be masculine. It's probably not a perfect example, but the main character of Pride and Prejudice doesn't fight baddies and...

Re: Tropes vs Women in Video Games pt 1 is out.
What exactly is a good female character? If you take most action FPS games for instance and replace the protagonist with a woman, you start getting entangled in the man with boobs trap where the character behaves for the most part like a man and is woman only in a visual sense.

Instead of signing on with a major carrier and being stuck with bandwidth limits, high monthly costs, and possibly rising fees, try getting a used phone and then signing up with a somewhat or completely third-party service that uses one of the major networks. Verizon has something like that, forgot ...

Re: Torchlight 2 to be released on September 20th
I'm running with a 2 hander engineer. Cool game so far.
I appreciate that they've made large weapons actually have increased range and hit arc. It's a step up from diablo where there's no real difference between melee weapon types.

Re: Thinking about buying a console
Unless Thanas has already bought a console, Let me pitch in. New generation consoles are coming out next year so best bet is to wait till then. Whether you do wait or you buy now, the deciding factor should be the games. Most games are multiplatform, but exclusives do exist, and when I bought my PS3...

You could experiment with build classes in D2.
