Been using the gs3 for the last week and have to say it's constantly impressing me, always fast, long battery (gotten a day and quarter with heavy use!!).. So good! Camera is fucking fast too, just too bad some games aren't compatible because they are tegra only but from what I've played their control like shite anyway..

Also, If anyone has any questions let me know if can try answer them about the gs3

I was actually mistaken there. I assumed it was talking about custom soundtrack, but it's actually custom *in game* soundtrack. I do love what's in the game, but man... I wasted 2 hours knocking up the perfect "zombie smashing at high school" compilation. The Not Another Teen Movie OST featured prominently, as did White Zombie, Ministry and Soundgarden. Guess I'll have to use it to ruin the mood completely in the first Alan Wake ;)


New 'rama in less than a week. I think.


Where be it? Same/similar area as before?

You could always go to Cho Gao, they used to have $12 jugs of pretty ordinary tasting Kiwi beer when I was there. May have changed though so don't hold me to it!

Need a Vita, though :/ Portable F1 would be pretty sweet, but the Vita hasn't price bombed enough yet. Yup, even for Wipeout and Lumines (and the other few I might be interested in).


Hey, GAF. Gotta ask. Anyone know of any games similar to Every Extend Extra on iOS? Or even PC (other than the original Every Extend)? I have been hanging to play something like that for ages, but... well... I can't find anything like it :(

New arrival in the post today:

This will be my last set for a while, given my avenues for buying LEGO from the States are virtually dead, so I will savour it.

I hate the gaming industry because of how they treated her. She has been a gamer since forever and people would know that if they spent 5 seconds researching her. She's fucking awesome. See her girlonguy podcast where she talks with CliffyB about GeoW3

I liked the rant, but the subsequent GAF thread showed that it didn't really deserve the callout. Most of the comments during the Ubisoft conference were positive. I was surprised actually, I expected all sorts of misogyny.

“I play.

I’ve played since I was a little kid.

Since I begged my dad to buy me a Nintendo LCD Donkey Kong, Jr.

Since I blew through three weeks’ allowance playing Defender at the laundromat.

Since you were a twinge in the left side of your daddy’s underoos.

I’ve been a gamer since I made friends with a girl in the 5th grade just to get at her Atari.

Since I missed the bus playing Galaga after school.

Since I missed the start of Return of the Jedi playing Tempest in the theater lobby.

You think you know. You don’t know.

I’ve been a gamer since before you could read.

Since I aced midterms after staying up all night playing Evil Tetris.

Since I became dorm champ at Leisure Suit Larry.

Since I double-wielded on Time Crisis 3 at Fuddrucker’s.

I was a voice in not one, but two major video game titles.

I hosted the Reach Beta tutorial.

I was a Gears of War superfan panelist at ComicCon.

I hosted the Ubisoft presser at E3 2012.

I didn’t do any of it for the money.

For most I got paid next to nothing, and for some, less than that.

I did it because I love video games.

Because I’ve dreamt since I was a kid of being in one of the games I love.

How many games have you done voices for?

How many cons have you repped at?

Your buddy’s Unreal Tournament garage deathmatch doesn’t count.

I go to E3 each year because I love video games.

Because new titles still get me high.

Because I still love getting swag.

Love wearing my gamer pride on my sleeve.

People ask me what console I play.

Motherfucker, ALL of them.

I get invited to E3 because real gamers know I’m a gamer.

I don’t do it for the money.

I have plenty of money.

I don’t do it for the fame.

Fuck fame.

I do it because I love video games.

I don’t give out my gamertag because I don’t want a mess of noob jackholes lining up

to assassinate me on XBL.

I don’t give a shit what you think about my gamerscore.

I don’t play to prove a point.

I don’t play to be the best.

I play because I love it.

I play.

I’ve been playing my whole life.

I’m not ashamed of it.

I don’t apologize for it.

It’s who I am.

To the core.

I’m a gamer.

So to all the haters out there who claim I don’t play;

To the GAF dicks,

Gamespot trolls,

To every illiterate racist douchebag on Youtube:

Flame away. Go nuts.

Post every jackass comment your heart desires.

I’ll still be playing when your mom’s kicked you out of her basement

and you have to sell your old-ass console

and get a real job.

For now, I say to you respectfully,

and I mean this from the bottom of my heart,

GFYS.”

this doesn't sound exactly good Fred

"However, Queensland has a debt greater than New South Wales and Victoria combined, with less than a third of their income flow to service it. This is shaping as a problem for the federation, yet not a voice is raised."

Fuck this job, fuck this company and fuck this town. I'm taking my ball and getting the fuck out. Shit is ridiculousness. Now the fiancee wants to move house a few days after our wedding. That sounds like it would be great for stress levels! Imma go home and grab a bottle of scotch and play some more Kinect Sports.

Same here, I remember the thread thinking she did a good job and was a godsend compared to that Mr Caffeine bullshit from last year. Most people knew she had done stuff with games media and voice over before and the others were instructed she was awesome in Friends and Archer. It has become cool to call out GAF though for some reason.

What's the context of the 'I'm a gamer' rant? Because it comes off as incredibly awkward and 'hey I'm a bigger gamer than yoooou', for someone like me who has no idea what's going on.

OK, I'll give it a go. I might not be starting this one until next week, though. Then again, it'll be hard to resist over the weekend, provided I can rebuild my U400 crane first as it's currently in Snow Plough mode with a bunch of the leftover spare parts taking up space on my building table, with at least one group of said parts scattered over the floor already due to an errant sweep of a piece of paper :/.

With the way NSW is governed you know you fucked up when you're doing much worse than we are.

First time I read it I thought that the killer sent the deceased's girlfriend the smiley face text. I was wondering how he could be pleading not-guilty. How it really happened is a little less creepy. Either way it's sloppy or manipulative writing.

I stopped reading after the killer sending the smileyface. Story was awesome there.

nah, WA libs's fault..... they had a surprise win in the election a few years back with a hung parliament and the National Party squeezing on the state testicles.

so 25 percent of mining royalties are used to keep them happy.
