  1. The Dualshock 4 is downright fun to play with. Instead of pressing and holding a button to light/extinguish a torch, I just swipe up or down on the touchpad--works every time, usually I'm thumbing it. This is my third playthrough, I never thought it could look better than the PC version, but it's a pat more buttery smooth and for sure has better physics. There's not enough guess-and-jump tomb traversal, but I love the mix of combat and item hunting.
  2. That is so weird, today is my best friend's wife's birthday, too. I sent her a message right after exiting a room with lights where a man with tools and an assistant succeeded in removing an entire tooth from the jaw inside my mouth. Happy birthday Camila! Goodbye, frickin' tooth!
  3. Today the pain finally made me go to a dentist. Some fantastic people at South Oceanside Dental Group, very nice female doctor made me feel at ease. Except tomorrow I have to have an oral surgeon yank this whole tooth out. Hopefully some good drugs out of the deal, at least.
  4. Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition came out early today. It is definitely different, possibly amazing. Third time buying this game.
  5. Sounds like a chemical burn. Ammunition packing, fireworks ... maybe a rogue powder splashed on your face. I barely touched a thin film of chlorine powder once, around someone's pool equipment and it stung and burned and turned red.
  6. Well if we're posting lore-twisted universe-clashing Bilbo ballads http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WPkByAkAdZs
  7. Wow Labadal you have lots of money to waste on unimportant things, think about all the starving children in Africa who could have benefitted from that money.... Not if it was a Dainese ... mmm, or Spidi. Those kids can starve all they want, they're not getting Italian leather.
  8. Listen up, Uncle Ben, your rice takes two minutes, not 90 seconds, like your microwave directions say. Get it together, and while you're at it, you can tell Aunt Jemima her syrup takes even longer!
  9. Those specs are highly dubious. The GPU is essentially a R9 290X, plus an octa-core PowerPC CPU? In terms of raw horsepower it would slaughter the XBOne or PS4, but how would they sell that at a competitive price without taking a MASSIVE loss on each unit? I mean those are high-end PC specs. I suppose in 2 or 3 years those components might be cheaper, but still. I agree, what possible cost-effective reason would they have to add two CPUs and a discreet GPU. And what's with two different RAM values. Those specs are for multi-monitor and 4K gaming, not vanilla 1080p Zelda fun-time. I hope they do something soon, though. I really would love a powerful, backwards-compatible Nintendo. If I want to play Mario Kart 8 right after playing some original F-Zero on the same box ... mmm ...
  10. How do you like that, you cause a turnover, come up with the ball, your own man pushes your opponent sideways onto your knee, twisting it like a twizzler, you land on the ground still clutching your takeaway, and the ref says it never happened.
  11. Not with $14B in cash. But they definitely need a stimulus.
  12. Conference Sunday! The best day all year.
  13. I want to play modern Nintendo games, but then I see that screen/button/stick/pad "controller" thing and suddenly I feel like a consumer Nintendo is not selling to. Why can't they save the gimmicks for peripheral sales and give me a flagship hardware unit with power, storage, and a comfy controller. I think car companies call it a halo effect.
  14. Oh wow that reminds me of Oriental Adventures, which I think came out shortly after Spelljammer. Back when Waldenbooks was the main purveyor of AD&D.
  15. Sorry I can't help but do a drive-by Darth Vader here.
  16. Well when you say it like that, that sounds exactly like who this mysteriously unrevealed-so-far 'Clairvoyant' character on Agents of SHIELD could be.
  17. Would like this, but the man in the red shirt creeps me out. That is cousin Karl, he enjoyz the ladeez
  18. That is the best photo of all, ever. You have won the internet.
  19. This will be graduate-level adventuring ... I'm hoping for some reference material to study before taking this course.
  20. Whew, I thought it was just me. He called the Chargers/Eagles in September and I wanted to punch his moustache.
  21. Golden Globes, 9/10, entertaining. I would do anything to get drunk with Emma Thompson--her mic-drop as a presenter killed. And now I really want to go see 'Her', except there's no way I'm going by myself to that show--wait, they just showed a preview for Sherlock on PBS and Watson has a moustache!
  22. Microsoft will do anything to keep Google out of their turf.
  23. Christ I am sorry
  24. It really was a shameful 3/4 ... but it's okay, Manning needs and deserves the trophy this year. Once he gets that out of the way, next year we'll send the Chargers all the way to face the Seahawks and deliver their second consecutive SB loss.
  25. Oh hell yes Tina and Amy are gonna kill the Globes tonight I can't wait to see who Scarlett is wearing cause you know Leo will make the wrong Boss color choice AGAIN hold on I'm being told this is a football thread some sort of serious discussion about a shameful display of balls
