I'd love to know why rubbing vapor rub on the soles of your feet stops a coughing fit (where you have a tickle at the back of your throat and can't stop coughing up phlegm).

Same as a punch in the arm makes you stop thinking about your stubbed toe I guess.
Placebo?

It would have been the 5th placebo I tried last night.

What a blowout.
Thanks for the tip. Now I know football!
I watched The X-Files instead. I love seeing facebook come alive with season football fans.
So the whole "I'll just use a 240GB SSD in my PS4, I'll never need that much space" has completely blown up in my face after having played a bit of GTA5. SIXTY GIG INSTALL FFS.
There's no way the game is that big on PC (is there?) so NFI WTF they're going for with such a massive footprint. But fuck 'em. And I can't run games of external HDDs, can I?
Anyway, rant over for the day. Surprised how much difference there is in playing between that and the PS3 one. Not just graphically, but man it's good to play it at a (somewhat) constant 30fps. Think with the last few days I've had off sick I'm up to where I made it on the PS3 version before I chucked it in.

lol I remember GTA4 on PC being an insanely large install too at the time. At least compared to other games. Was 20GB or 40GB? Can't recall, that was so long ago now
How you liking GTA5 so far? Thinking back I'd have to rate it my favourite GTA now. They just nailed it finally.

Still on season one. I've heard you can skip alot of the episodes and just watch the ones that effect the major plot arc, but I'm happy to see them all.

I'd argue a lot of the MOTW episodes are better than a lot of the major plot episodes. Just finished the start of Season 3 as was pretty underwhelmed/disappointed.
So far it's been spotty as fuck. First half of Season 2 was pure gold but it kinda went by in a blur towards the end.
When it's on it's game there is almost nothing out there as good though. Can't think of another series on this level until Breaking Bad/Mad Men era stuff.
I am watching them all, the monster of the week side stories are pretty cool.

I started out liking the X-Files when it was first on, I think It lost me in 3 or 4 and I quit cold turkey never to return.
Not a horror SF fan so I never returned. I know this adds nothing to the conversation but this seems acceptable behaviour on GAF to come and say you don't like something.
Also, as a non-sports fan but as a QLDer, its hard not to know when Origin is on. I had no idea last night's match was Game 3. I remember being aware when QLD lost but have no recollection of whatever game we won.

Yeah I don't mind the MOTW episodes, they are pretty interesting.
The whole 90's aesthetic of this show really gets me, same goes for twin peaks. But the 90's are my favorite era.
Well I'd hope any community would allow you say you don't like something. Different people like different things. I mean I never liked most of the so called premium HBO shows (Rome, Deadwood and GoT aside). Never liked the Sopranos, never liked Madmen, never tried Breaking Bad because the subject is totally uninteresting to me.
I loved the X-Files myself, I only really dropped off when Mulder left and they brought in new Agents. And its hard for me to see it without nostalgia goggles now.
Did you ever try Fringe? that was a pretty great modern X-Files style show.

I disagree, your comment has informed us that you stopped watching around season 3/4 which gives an indication something happened at that point to put you off. More information is better than less in my opinion!
Jesus fuck. lol r* do u even compression?
Really enjoying it, much more than when on PS3. I know I said that before, I just still find it really weird. Not sure about Trevor though, he goes from being super shittylol I remember GTA4 on PC being an insanely large install too at the time. At least compared to other games. Was 20GB or 40GB?

curb-stomping the biker, torture scene
dropping the torture guy off at the airport

But yeah, I'm liking it. Probably moreso that I spent the last two and a bit days (home, sick away from work) kind of powering through it. Went from zero to just after the
torture
FWIW (maybe I didn't mention it before) but I remember the
fake death
torture
Is it my favourite so far? It's damn well up there, but even though I haven't finished it I can't put it above Vice City. I know I need to finish it on at least *some* platform (need to power through that one, too... even if I buy it on iOS, play it with the DS3) but I still feel it pulls off atmosphere better than 5.

Trevor is just messed up in general, rather than being any one particular type of psychopath. Part of it is using him as an embodiment of what a typical COD/GTA player is trying to be in the game, for better or worse. He flies into a rage every now and then when triggered but otherwise maintains his weird persona to mask his pain, he has a rescinded arc in the game which was kinda nice that they didn't try and redeem him or something. Trevor is Trevor and I like that.
I like VC/SA for what they did in terms of recreating a time and a place but enjoying the gameplay and world design of 5 much more. I seem to be one of the few people who found the controls and movement in 5 fine.
Ohhh.... the typical COD/GTA player I can totally see now! That makes much more sense (and to be honest, is so damned obvious now). Have they gone on record saying that, or is it just the public making that very obvious assessment?
Especially all the homophobic statements and "jokes", it clicks now!
Yeah, I've had no problems with controls in GTA5 on PS4... didn't know there were such issues. I do remember having to kind of wrestle with them on the PS3, so maybe it comes with any title that doesn't run at a steady framerate.
Just bought VC on iOS so I can give that a crack on train rides to/from work. I'll make a better judgement then.
Maybe if they did a VC/Gay Tony-esque story with the GTA5 engine? I'd love to see, rather than a quasi-realistic current-day reflected in a GTA, a different era with exaggerated filters and colours like how VC was to GTA3.

Good old Victoria putting me through hoops for a paintball license to own my own marker (paintball firearm). I play at least once per year and usually up to 2-3 times per year so it's time I went through all the steps. I just hope it all comes through before 2nd week next month for our annual play session.
I'm so sick of the venue supplied markers, they're easily the worst part of the experience every time. Also considering joining or forming a team to compete (or at least attempt to).

Except it's not really like other open world car games. Rockstar took what they learned from creating the world of RDR, and then applied that to Los Santos to get a much more rigid narrative, ostensibly set in an open world. It's not quite so much about driving around killing people, as it is an exploration of the Californian culture and mindset.
Saints Row is more drivey-shooty.
THAT'S WHY I LIKE IT SO MUCH!
It all makes sense now. Everyone up in AusGAF is schooling me on GTA5 narratives and gameplay and such.
yeah except it was boring as shit, so it failed both in being interesting and in drive-shoot
maybe it's just regret on jumping on it the moment it came to pc, but the narrative was somehow the most irritatingly nothing of all the gta's i've played so far where bad things happen to bad people for no discernable reasons and assholes screw each other over constantly but you don't care.
