I hardly touch my tv anymore, much less my console lately... so while I can appreciate this sort of thing happening, I doubt I'll get my hands on one.

I'm the same way, there are some games that I've dumped tons of time into, and others that I haven't touched yet. Not even that I don't like some of the games that I have, but more that there are a handful of games that I just can't stop playing.

Quote from: Reign in Blood on February 06, 2013, 06:56:18 AMGranted, they did help make him a star. But don't act like Vince isn't there with open arms for all the extra exposure and money the Rock brings to just roll out of bed, rattle off a couple one liners and beat someone at the PPV. He comes and goes as he pleases because he has all the clout, and Vince eats it up with a spoon.
Good point... by this point it's almost like a symbiotic relationship now.

With a body like that one could really... Die Hard.

All I know is the cancer thing. And he isn't married to Lois anymore.

Video Games / Steam

Okay, so pretty much anyone that plays video games on a regular basis knows what Steam is. The question now is, do any of you guys use it?

It seems like most of the video games we talk about reference consoles, so I'm just kind of curious to see if there is anyone from here that uses it. Hell, if anyone does I'd add them.

Jeez I think I might be the only one whose life has been uneventful since FE went down. Not that it was very exciting before then, but that's beside the point.

This is one of those shows that I've heard so many people talk about and I've still yet to get around to seeing it. The other being Game of Thrones.

I still plan on seeing Breaking Bad... I just don't know when.

Quote from: L-Face on February 06, 2013, 06:07:41 AMPerhaps I'm reading this wrong or you phrased it improperly, but if his group disagrees with him and you see it as a fault, is that not a mistake?
Not necessarily, since not only leaders, but groups can make mistakes.

The way I see it: unintended consequences from making a decision are where mistakes spring from. It isn't a "mistake" on Rick's part, because he knows fully what he's doing when he excludes people. If that makes any sense now.

Quote from: Dorkus on February 06, 2013, 06:16:50 AMIn fairness to Rick, right after saying that quote about Dale, Shane tried to kill him. I'm guessing he just realized that Dales ways weren't going to work.
Rick knew Shane was crazy long before then, and had it out for him. SpoilersHell, they had both nearly got eaten because they were trying to kill each other before Dale was even close to danger. It shouldn't have come as a surprise that Shane was going to kill him again. Hell, even Dale realized Shane needed to go... he just couldn't pull the trigger. /spoilers.

Quote from: L-Face on February 06, 2013, 05:57:08 AMI think I'm going to have to go with WWF No Mercy for the Nintendo 64.
This was one of the first games I remember playing religiously. My nephew and I would make characters and play for hours. I even remember my character's name- The Undergrabber. [*laugh*]

As for my favorite game of all time... it's really hard since I've had tons of them over the years. No Mercy, Pokemon, Duke Nukem, Battlefront, Halo, WoW, Mortal Kombat, etc. Tons of different games from tons of different genres. And they all have nostalgia factors to them. Makes me wish I were a kid again sometimes.

I suppose if I had to choose, I would say Halo 2... simply based off of the late nights I would spend having fun with my friends. Good times.

I don't consider him making the conscious decision to exclude other less fortunate people out of the group, even though they have a chance to prove their worth, a mistake. While I definitely agree with him a good portion of the time, and I do sympathize with him, that is simply one of the areas that I think he has a huge fault on... especially when others in the group oppose those decisions.

"In the end, he [Dale] was talking about losing our humanity. He said this group was broken. The best way to honor him is to unbreak it. ... From now on we're gonna do it his way. That is how we honor Dale."

Meaning I've yet to see this quote come into play from him, yet.

Quote from: Dorkus on February 06, 2013, 05:58:13 AMI think the only true "good" character in the show was Dale. Glenn and Carol too, but both are a little too weak to lead a group.
Honestly I think Hershel could pull it off, if he had to. He's really the only other person aside from Darryl I could see leading the group if something were to happen to Rick. And honestly, I don't even think Darryl would be the kind of person to want to lead the group... not for very long, at least.

*kicks his Walking Dead and Batman the Animated Series paraphernalia under his bed.*

Absolutely silly.
Ehhh... we're really big fans of the show, but I wouldn't call us obsessed. Some people are absolutely insane over the damn ponies.

Quote from: L-Face on February 06, 2013, 05:36:07 AMWell, those people aren't his people.
Exactly.

So instead of treating them based off of their merits, giving his group a chance to grow and become stronger, he does what he can to slide his group in like a parasite then decides to go the route of "Fuck you, I got mine." Very classy of him. I know I wouldn't want to follow a leader like that... I'd much rather have someone that would stick to their guns (again, figuratively, not literally) one way or the other. I just feel it's just too underhanded for someone that their trying to cast as the main hero of the group.

That's what I did. Now I have a computer the equivalent of Skynet. [*hibaby*]

Whoa whoa whoa now... let's not get too hasty. Fox simply fucked Firefly hardcore.
