I feel a lot of next gen adopters have a lot of repressed salt from gaming side and are spilling it out here.

Yeah, my take was that XB1 owners come here to share their unrequited excitement because of scars from gaming side.

Still haven't decided which I'd ultimately buy but I'm happy MS has finally made certain necessary strides.

 

[TrueGrime]

GODZILLA TONIGHT. ALREADY GOT TICKETS.

 

[Unhandled Exception]

I bought both consoles and am not disappointed with where things are because this is what I expected in this time frame. There've been some decent games but nothing to write home about just yet. I'm much more interested in Nintendo games as far as consoles go right now. None of this matters though, Star Citizen is my lord and savior.

 

[iLLmAtlc]

Finally got MGS Ground Zeroes thanks to a tip from Canadian deals. Excited to start but it feels a bit weird being about 1 hour away from finishing before having removed the shrink wrap. :|

If you're getting scared by the opinions of others than there's something wrong.

 

[iLLmAtlc]

also what did Shero do to put him into trouble? is this simply lack of results? that strikes me as weird because the coach is usually first to go in situations like that.

Yeah I'm glad MS has finally at least matched the features of Sony at the same price, and I've always preferred Xbox controllers to Sony, but I'm still on the fence. Won't be buying either until fall though.

My friend is going to the game tonight. He said he wants to witness the ducks fulfill their destiny.

He never replaced Gonchar with anyone who could fill his shoes. Especially in terms of settling down Crosby and Malkin and getting them back in focus.

Tell him to say the word "tabris" three times in the mirror and see what happens.

I'm still thinking of going but tickets are at $122 right now on stubhub and that's too pricey for my friends who want to go :|

 

[Calamari41]

$122 for game 7 of a series as hard fought and close as this one is as close to "free give-away" status as you can get.

Yep. I told them that anywhere else in the country, we wouldn't even have an option of purchasing tickets the day of the game, let alone at $122!!

I'm not going by myself though

edit: hmm.. I should have said anywhere else but Florida.. or Phoenix..

In 2015. Yeaaaaaah.

For now I've been playing a lot of the Hex MMOTCG beta and NHL 14...

I had this dream of the most amazing game last night though, now that I think of it... Some kind of HD Ninja Gaiden MMO. It was awesome.

 

[Unhandled Exception]

DFM is next week search your racist heart smelly you know it to be true

 

[zroid]

I'm pretty sure I had a dream last night involving Jake Muzzin, and it's worsened by the fact I can't remember what it was about. :|

Just going to pretend it was me laughing at him after the Queens lose Game 7

Bro, if I didn't already have tickets, I would have had you sit with me and my wife.

Not because we're friends, but just so that I wouldn't have to go looking for you in the parking lot after the game.

 

[lamaroo]

I thought this was a pretty interesting analysis of the coaching battle that went on in the MTL/BOS series

Also I'm seeing Million Dollar Arm this weekend instead of Godzilla because I'm a hippie

Wow that link in the article about Murray:

The result? Horrific possession results. In fact during these playoffs, Murray has been worse on the ice at even strength than 12 other teams while shorthanded during the 2013-14 season.

Heading in to OT, Murray had played 24.8 5v5 minutes during which time Boston had 39 shot attempts in the series. That's 94.3 SAF/60 for BOS

— mc79hockey (@mc79hockey) May 9, 2014

12 NHL teams didn't hit 94.3 SA/60 at 5v4 this year, to give that some context.

[CrazedArabMan]

Lol you don't even know what QB is, do you? But yeah, you list four games to be excited about and all four are shooters. Good to see this gen picking up right where the last one left off with this shit.

It's Remedy, in Remedy we trust.

My friend is going to the game tonight. He said he wants to witness the ducks fulfill their destiny.

Have a seat over here, let me tell you about a little thing called Destiny.... It all started in 2011 when the Vanc.....

 

[Smiley90]

DFM is next week search your racist heart smelly you know it to be true

I probably won't get it in the first wave though

 

[Samyy]

The only game I want to play right now is Civ 5
But I spent my PC money on a suit instead

And for some reason my Mac has decided that it doesn't want to play games anymore, can't even run AoM HD wtffff

 

[zroid]

Wow that link in the article about Murray:

yeah, Therrien is such a bipolar coach, lol

 

[yankeehater]

It's Remedy, in Remedy we trust.

From what little they have shown so far I dont expect it to be your standard shooter. We will have to wait for E3 to see more.

 

[Unhandled Exception]

I probably won't get it in the first wave though

My understanding is single player for all, MP in waves.

 

[apocalidiot]

Anyone else just do jack shit today? Usually I hate that feeling but I'm ok with it today

If I didn't have to be in Fresno really early tomorrow to pick up my son I would be going to the game. Tickets aren't that expensive.

Took a final

Stay at a hotel after the game

 

[TheKaeptain]

I don't think you understand. I have to drive to Fresno from Northridge tomorrow morning. I have to pick him up at 8am.

 

[Smiley90]

Yah but MP is where it's at.

 

[Calamari41]

You're right, I brain farted and thought of Riverside when you said Fresno.

Fresno is a lot further away from the Pond than Riverside is.

 

[Heretic]

Just had Mongolian food from the mall. I'm not even hungry. Horrible idea. So nervous.

[Pickles the Firecat]

I'm in San Diego until 4 at the earliest or I'd be going. Don't think I'd make it up in time with the fires was planning on it until I was called down yesterday

 

[Clydefrog]

Wait a minute, are you actually a firecat??

What's it like down there today? We've got smoke warnings all up the OC coast, telling everyone to keep their kids and old people inside.

 

[lamaroo]

yeah, Therrien is such a bipolar coach, lol

That's what we've been saying. There's the part of him that coached the shortened season and these playoffs, then the other part that ignores all the good stuff he does and makes stupid decisions.

Plus the fact that he's constantly apologising for veterans fucking up, and burying rookies for making mistakes, but he seems to have cooled off on that.

 

[Pickles the Firecat]

Wait a minute, are you actually a firecat??

Hahaha, just have to fill in for a coworker at a meeting. Its only going to be like 10 minutes and I dont have anything to contribute, but for whatever reason they wanted me here.

The Pendalton area down through Carlsbad was looking pretty apocalyptic. Haven't seen the southern fires.

On the positive side, finally getting to try Tacos el Gordo. Not as good as Oscar's but pretty damn good.

That's one ugly ass shirt. Tacos look good though!

I think I'll buy a one day pass for HS to watch tonight. I believe in you dstrdl, hrtc, Smack, Cala, and Giggz.

Oh I have no problem him claiming that.

Great article from the Boston Globe about the whole Lucic thing.

I wonder who CHI would rather face in the next round?

Probably the Kings.

 

[TheKaeptain]

dammit now I want tacos.

 

[Solo]

Alright ye skanks, I am off to a bachelor party and won't be around for Game 1.

Go Habs go and I will throw a toonie in a stripper's snatch for every time Pierre gets wood during the game.

 

[Red_Man]

Why did gaming side come and take a giant shit on the playoff thread?

My buddys saw Godzilla last night and said it was good as hell

You're buddy is correct. Great movie.

I think it was more Socreges baiting and others falling for it by the looks of it

I didn't "fall for it"... I'm just trying to make the time go by faster

IT'S NOT WORKING!

I want to just fall asleep and wake up when it's over.

Honestly so do I. I can't stand watching my teams specifically in elimination playoff hockey games and BCS games.

 

[Clydefrog]

If the game goes into a second of OT, I will be dead.
