I love how they tell you once they fix a console that has red ringed, it won't happen again. Then it does.HolyCheck said:
Yeah, it's surprising, especially since they're using the same setup. A mate of mine was in Supercoach, but made the change to Dreamteam. Good luck either way.user_nat said:

I have won about $2000 dollars from this (weekly wins are only worth 500 now i think which sucks), also came in the top 200 last year.
Can't wait for the start of the season.

20 mins into the first game of the season, and I'm already feeling the urge to rip Gus Gould's throat out.
Also, come on you chooks!

this is an amazing ad for homefront and it had me and a few others going thinking NK had attacked due to the location on youtube, the fact its hillary talking and there is no mention of homefront at the start of the video
I think it's a fucking terrible ad. It feels extremely exploitative.
I know it was up earlier today but given that we just had a fucking massive earthquake off the coast of Japan with potential ramifications for the entire Pacific area Youtube should at least temporarily nix that damn ad.

Don't read any media related to the game. If you are playing on PC grab the Hi Res texture pack from Biowares siteSalazar said:

I had no idea they released a version for Sega CDSalazar said:
DA2 is a good game but you can tell it was rushed. I would love to see a postmortem but there is enough chat coming out already that I wouldn't be surprised to hear some more moaning by the end of the month. I wish I had held out for a GOTY edition though.

my wife took it upon herself to replace my dead launch 360 with a new Slim w 250 GB drive and Kinect. The EB bundle with Bulletstorm for $546 was the best deal we could find.
she is awesome.
now to get some HDMI cables. I also bought a bluray player earlier in the week (backup for the wrong console- I started killzone 3 today and took me a while to realise i didn't control the thing with the blu ray remote.
me- "Hi I'd like that sony Bluray player"
salesman- sure, would you like an overpriced HDMI cable?
me-"No."
salesman- "Would you like an extended warranty that's impossible to claim on?"
me- "Would you like to go fuck yourself?"
salesman- "I had that coming."
turns out i do want some HDMI cables, just not $50+ ones.

Yup, both my cables (and a PC HDMI cable) were less than $5 posted off ebay. There is a descriptive chart somewhere explaining how retarded it is to charge $100 for a cable that works just as well as a $1 one.ClivePwned said:
Dragon Age 2 is the greatest example of community mismanagement I've seen since Derek Smart.
I am LOVING the game, enjoy the changes and am playing it on the PC. But the amazing amount of negativity every time I read anything about it is making the experience worse.
The clusterfuck that is this combined with the now traditionally messed up attempts to market Bioware games to dudebros is just mindboggling in the sheer weight of backlash that has only snowballed since the release.
Hell I'm even loving the Facebook game, and that's a goddamn Facebook game. Now granted, it's no Echo Bazaar, but that's like complaining that guilty pleasure fast food isn't as good as nectar from the gods.
When it comes to fitness games on the Kinect, I figured like with Rock Band, Dance Central will be great once the sequel comes out - whereas a bland fitness game, it'll keep people happy and I won't have to upgrade it in a year.

He was referring to the guy who was banned from the BioWare forums for bitching. His EA account was banned, meaning he couldn't play Dragon Age 2.Salazar said:

72 hour ban only but yes it is insane to stop someone accessing their games that they paid $60 for and supported your company just because they make a negative comment on a forum. All you uni bums better not bad mouth Centrelink on here! They are watching!Danoss said:

to be completely fair, had he activated the game already he would have been ok playing it. I'm not suggesting he deserved to be locked out of his game, I'm saying that this culmination of a few systems was probably unforeseen within EA management.Danoss said:
I mean, knock them for incompetence, but not for being, you know, dastardly and moustache-twirling, because I doubt they meant for this to happen.

Nope, it is part of their terms and conditions. Read the post at the end of this thread.Rez said:
Awesome work. My son hated his mobile thoughOmi said:At least the baby room is ready to go....even if I am not.
Also make sure you take all the teddy's out of the cot when s/he goes down for a nap, big no no for the first few months. Also according to The Simpsons you need to hide a bottle of liquor and a rifle somewhere in the cot.Awesome room, wish I had something like that as a young kid.Omi said:At least the baby room is ready to go....even if I am not.
I wonder if the Goomba will give him nightmares.
They linked the ability to ban on a forum with the ability to ban access to games on purpose. They sure thought that one through.reptilescorpio said:
I'm glad I don't like Bioware games.
It only took me like 3 months to redraw a page I'd already made.

Cheers, yeah, the toys are getting turfed when he arrives. Pretty sure the other half has them in there purely for aesthetic reasons.
@Danoss - I hope not. lol.
@Bern - Hah! We shall see.

Meh, I've been avoiding all the DAII bullshit and actually playing the game.
I'm about 9 hours in, and it's fucking great.
Haters gonna hate etc

I rather like Kirkwall as a hub, every time I think I'm done with all the side-quests - something else opens up. I just love how it plays like Dragon Age, but has a snap to it.
My main issues mostly relate to PC bugs, I keep getting random hangs that don't go away unless I alt-tab out and back, I can't stay logged into the EA servers for the life of me and every time I start up the game it keeps telling me to insert a disc three times before remembering that the game doesn't need a disc.
In comparison to DA:O, what I find a proper let-down is the fact quest dungeons are far less crafted to suit the quest. I've run into nothing akin to the mage temple that then segues into a massive nightmare world, defending a hub town from a zombie invasion or really much reward at all for exploring inside a dungeon.
Exploring dungeons in DA:O netted you optional bosses, new quests, items and upgrades. The best I've seen so far is you pick up an item, it gives you a quest, you return it and get some money. There's no actual real content hidden away to find anymore, and I like that in my RPGs.
