Support NeoGAF

"A Galaxy poll published this morning shows Mr Turnbull is preferred as opposition leader by 60 per cent of voters, compared with 29 per cent support for Mr Abbott."


"Asked by reporters in Canberra this morning why Mr Turnbull was more popular, Mr Abbott said the opposition communications spokesman was making an impact in his portfolio."

""I think Malcolm is doing a really good job as the shadow minister for communications," Mr Abbott said."

the liberals are going to have to confront the tony issue sooner or later. The electorate doesn't like him

Want the party, don't want him.

 

[markot]

Terrible?

Assassins Creed 3 is one of the poorest games of 2012 imo

Weren't you singing its praises a few days before it released.

what really? well i think a lot of people were hambo

when you play the full gmae, its shit

 

[Planet_JASE]

Yeah the twitter thing is meh, but, this is hilarious.

"All I know is that I'm well aware of the consequences of eating 'dead' food, and also I'm a father, and I take that privilege very seriously, so for me striving for optimum health whenever I can so that I can be a responsible role model for my daughters, and still be able to surf right up until the end, is the obvious choice for me."

People would be wise to not make fun of him. I've seen him take down a cow and eat his fill before it expires.

The singing takes valuable time away from pointless smear campaigns.

and boats!

 

[FallbackPants]

Having just read that story, it only reinforces my lack of understanding at what the internet finds worthy of backlash/commentary.

I was waiting for the part of the story where the guy had admitted to eating something made up or controversial. As it turns out, he just ascribes to a diet that it different from ours.

Where did I put my pitchfork?

It's funny because it's wanky. Almonds soaked until they sprout? Emu balls? Wank central.

And now he's talking about "dead food?" Mega wanky. Just eat some fucking peanut butter on toast dude.

Foodie likes unusual food.

Ask an artist their favourite art and you'll probably get a load of wank. Much in the same way you ask an architect about their home they'll talk about a load of utter wank that most people wouldn't consider important for their home. Talk to someone that's into alcohol (like wine or scotch) and you'll get into similar territory that will induce eye-rolling.

I get that it's different. I get that it's not usual. But I recognise that whenever you ask people with specialised careers what they find most important about their career, more often than not it will sound wanky.

It's just another one of those high inconsequential banalities in life that a large amount of the public show interest in that would be better spent on more important things in life. #auspolitics #societalinequalities #bigbrother

you should all read this book

its by the old editor of EDGE

 

[reptilescorpio]

Vita is better, 3DS has a save-corrupting bug that Vita is absolutely free from.

Vita. As Jint said, the save corruption/game crashing stuff isn't there.

Oh cool, same price on Vita.

Now I need a Vita.

Sounds like a Sims expansion.

Anyone going to the Melbourne cup tomorrow?

I'm not

Working

Wait. That's already?! I thought it was the end of November.

 

[DarthHomer]

Me neither. Rather stay inside tomorrow and relax.

 

[Omikron]

Wait. That's already?! I thought it was the end of November.

First Tuesday in November!

Drinking these atm, on sale at my local. Recommended.

 

[Kritz]

Best thing about melbourne cup was always free booze at work and no teachers in classrooms to impede my exceptional auditing skills. The alcohol did that for me instead.

 

[Shaneus]

Shit, I can't even remember the last time I had Milo...

Remember when Milo bars were fucking awesome? They were basically just solidified Milo covered in chocolate. Now they have these rice bits and caramel bits and they've fucked it completely. Fuck you, Nestle.

I was very disappointed with the Saboteur. It was an interesting concept but the gameplay never really grabbed me. Much like Red Faction: Guerrilla, I felt that they squandered some of the great gameplay opportunities that the setting offered.

AC2 on the other hand I thought was brilliant. Well worth a look.

Should i skip the first AC? That's assuming the other AC I have (Brotherhood) is AC2.

Oh god I've got too many games to play and now you wanna make me play Blur again. And rebuy PGR4!

FUCK YOU SHANEUS. YOU PRICK.

You haven't seen me during election time.

Nah, less.

 

[fappenmeister]

Beer. Oh yes. Beer. Omi, nice choice man. They're the standard fapp beers nowdays.

 

[Ningo]

Me earlier today

[endlessflood]

Should i skip the first AC? That's assuming the other AC I have (Brotherhood) is AC2.

It's not I'm afraid. It goes:

1. Assassin's Creed (Altair is the main character)
2. Assassin's Creed 2 (Ezio is the main character)
3. Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood (Ezio is the main character)
4. Assassin's Creed: Revelations (Ezio is the main character)
5. Assassin's Creed 3 (Connor is the main character)

But yes, I'd probably skip AC1 at this stage. The assassinations in that were great, but the bulk of the game was boring and repetitive. AC2 was a big jump forward.

 

[Planet_JASE]

Should i skip the first AC? That's assuming the other AC I have (Brotherhood) is AC2.

The first one is very repetitive. Some people enjoyed it, others not so much. Play it for 3 or 4 hours. If you can see yourself playing almost the same thing 3 or 4 more times keep it.

Brotherhood is the third game.



Edit: DAMN YOU ENDLESSFLOOD!!!!!!

 

[Jintor]

They're all repetitive man

 

[codswallop]

Pretty sure I posted that exact same picture on Friday.

I don't see the first Assassin's Creed being any more repetitive than the others. Later games in the series are so full of side quest bullshit I long for the more focused game.

 

[Planet_JASE]

They're all repetitive man

With the worst offender being the first game. Almost egregiously so. Therefore if you're going to play one of them, that's not the one. Revelations and AC3 don't seem to be excellent choices, either.

Have I ever said you have excellent taste?

Last HSC exam tomorrow! Which means, I'm going to have a hell of a lot of spare time on my hands. Any game suggestions, AusGAF?

 

[codswallop]

The game I wish I had spare time to dedicate to is Dark Souls.

Congrats.

My completely unbiased suggestions, football manager 2013 and crusader kings 2.

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

Anyone going to the Melbourne cup tomorrow?

I'm not

Yeah, huge work thing with 45-50 people. Gotta go early and pick up the food from the caterers. It's quite warm and I don't feel like wearing a suit. Hope it rains

 

[Kirby102]

I'm about to get ready for some Halo 4, does anyone know where I can get cheap XBL gold and some MS points? (doesn't really need MS pts atm, but more wanting cheap gold)

 

[markot]

Fyi, i also hate melb cup and horse racing!

 

[r1chard]

Yeah but we get the day off! Horse race? What horse race? Took today off too. Took my girls out roller skating. Oh yes.

 

[markot]

Only vic gets the holiday. Kinda stupid. Why doesnt formula 1 get a holiday? Also the formula one was moved to tuesday in this scenario. Also mark webber was talented.

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

Those cheeky bastards! My Video Ezy AC3 order was still showing backorder 10 minutes ago, so I sent them an email asking to cancel the order. I just got an email saying that my order has been dispatched.

I'm still returning it if it turns out to be a Asia copy.

 

[markot]

Whats wrong with asia? Is it the heat of the moment?

 

[Dead Man]

Lightning in the neighbourhood. For about 4 hours now. Heard some fire trucks before but I still have power so that's good.

Nothing is better than The Saboteur. I doubt AC2 has the charm, charisma or art direction of The Saboteur.

Of course, I'm yet to play AC2 (or any AC for that matter... I own I think the first two? which one's Brotherhood?) but that's irrelephant.

Saboteur deserved 6 months and $10million extra before being shipped. It is still in my top 5 open world games, just so much unique stuff and it all works so well.

The devs behind it dont work so well. Get it? The studio got closed and they lost their jobs!
