i really don't get the love with idle thumbs. I listened to a few when it was still on and didn't care, came onto gaf with everyone jerking off over it and gave it another listen and still didn't care. Why is it so great? Tell me that.
Something didn't sit well with me last night, woke up at 2 nearly wanting to throw up. Fun night, might go for a stroll and check out a park or two, see if I can get stabbed by a hobo.
Mega, you're not alone with the idle thumbs. I did enjoy it and got excited when there was a new episode but it was mainly background noise. There were times when I would fall asleep with it on and it was a lot better, it's almost like you have to give the podcast your full attention otherwise it's just a small laugh here and there.

Because thoughtful yet completely unforced commentary on video games mixed with tasteful, on-point comedy is ridiculously hard to find.Megadrive said:
I wouldn't know because I have never actually looked (or listened, for that matter) to *any* podcast, but I feel I'd be ruining the experience if I listened to anything else. They took a soundbite of another podcast (Tapezilla?!?) during the last one I listened to and they just sounded like fanboy fuckwits (they were giggling at how "stupid" the name Idle Thumbs was).Rez said:
I guess it helps that Remo worked on a site like Gamasutra, which has always provided interesting perspectives into the gaming industry.

I've added everyone on the AusGAF 3DS Friend Code Spreadsheet and I've noticed that only about a third of you guys have added me. Get a move on, people!
It's been over 24 hours since Amazon slapped a label on my 3DS and other items. There is no activity is on the tracking log. Trying a live chat with Amazon to see what happens. I didn't even know they had a live chat option.
Update: UPS is apparently shit(ter than I thought), I'm not to expect any tracking updates. Amazon will follow up to make sure I receive the package on the expected day.

I have had nothing but problems with UPS in the past. They have lowered the bar once again. I should be surprised if the package arrives at all, let alone in one piece.Choc said:
Also, this is probably old but did you 3DS owners know that it Doesn't Look as Good as a PS3?
It does? Hmm, interesting. I might have to update my phone, as long as there's a working untethered JB for 4.3...
EDIT: 4.3.1 untethered jailbreak =D

That's so unlike Apple. Wait, what am I saying?Aon said:
My iPhone 3G can't have a wallpaper, because it's not powerful enough according to Apple. A wallpaper. A WALLPAPER.
I'm so close to having an Android device, I can almost smell it. Telstra compatible Nexus S.

Channel 10... dumping a lot of their sports content on OneHD and potentially instating Bolt with his own show.
Wow.

Assassin's Creed 2 is an amazing game. Can't wait to head into Brotherhood. I'm up to memory sequence 12 or so and aside from some free-running issues with Ezio jumping or letting go without meaning to and some cases when the fighting system just doesn't kick in and being boxed into a corner with my own thieves and having to reload, it's been great. Since I've heard Brotherhood is basically 2.5, i'm really excited.
I've been on a roll lately with playing great games I didn't enjoy the first iteration of (AssCreed) or didn't think I'd enjoy period (Mass Effect).
also since i've been using it a lot lately, find me on raptr. My name is either megadrive or megadriven. Look for familiar names in my friends list.
Cookie, i find any podcast requires pretty much my full attention. Maybe i should listen to podcasts instead of music on my morning commute.

whats the go with this andrew bolt guy. He seems to have come out of no where and is mentioned all over the place
i think he is a steaming pile of shit and can't write for shit. His columns are poor.
Anyway
now that i can actually watch it (thank you ten for not putting it on at 6pm anymoer you know when people are still tryign to get home)
630 with george negus is great. Shits all over ACA and TT
Mining magnate and Australias richest woman Gina Rinehart, who has a 10 per cent stake in Ten, is said to be a fan of Bolt and believes that a right wing Fox News-style show is needed on the network, according to The Australian newspaper.
oh deary fucking me. What a stupid bitch. We do not need fucking morons like Fox news on our televisions thanks. Australians are to smart to listen to that wankerish shit

Yeah, I've retired from DA2. I picked it up again last night to try and gain some interest, but lost even more interest as a result. I'm trying to refrain from calling the game utter garbage, because it isn't in the grand scheme of video games. But compared to the first, it really is utter garbage.
BSS and I will be at the hotel around 7. We will ask for the Mr Sidney Ghaph table.

Where did you get up to? I think I'm just about to finish Act 1. The fact that I just killed a whole bunch of stone beasts and then was thwarted by a guy closing a door was pretty bad. For all it's faults, I'm kind of enjoying it. There is quite a lot wrong with it though.Mar said:

As far as SydGaf meetup goes I'll either meet up round circular quay at 6:30, dependent on where we meet, or if not will be asking for the Sydney Gaf table at the hotel.
The email 'Hello Mr Bernbaum there is a parcel here for you' comes from my company's delivery room. It can only be one thing, and I fucking run there like a boss. The moment I get my parcel to my desk, a newly arrived friend from Trinidad wanted help finding a restaurant in Brisbane and she has no idea finding her way around town so I grudgingly leave the unboxening ceremony aside for a few minutes to help her. That's just how fucking nice I am.
It's going to be a loooooong afternoon!
