I like you, newbie! Although I assume IRL you're probably older than me, given that you have a job that blocks Steam.

Thanks, but I wouldn't be so sure about that, I'm in a government IT job, but only an entry level one. Gotta say, being a tech is kinda boring when you wanted to be a programmer. Really should work on looking for a different job or something. I'm only in my early-to-mid 20s so it's probably better for me to look around now.

Well fine. I actually haven't been reading GAF super religiously recently.

Wouldn't that be almost any work place that isn't a gaming magazine thought Jint?

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
Everybody vote for The Darkness II because it's one of the better shooters to be released in recent memory.

Then buy Bulletstorm while you're at it.

And Serious Sam 3.

Only then will you be purged of your shooter sins.

I suffered serious overload with SS3. It got too relentless and just too 'big' towards the end.

Also, flat as fuck.

I thought it would be a direct donation of TF2 hats to the Church of Shooters that absolved your sins?

Well I gotta admit I like the ARAM games in League of Legends, and denial is a bit of a stretch to get my head around when I switch between them, but I think I actually prefer the characters in Dota to the ones in LoL. Gotta love Nature's Prophet, Holla Holla Get Dolla.

Yeah, don't listen to Shan. Move on from baby's first MOBA and play Dota!

Definitely pacing issues. I didn't have the same "wow" factor walking out of the cinema as compared to TDK, but I still had a great time.

Was it just me or did
his voice start off really britishy and then change over the course of the film?

No plot spoiler. The thing we're spoiler texting is apparent in the first minute of the film.

Overall its good.

Who did a stupid MSG on my twitter feed, the app keeps crashing!

Maybe my phone is dying.

I'm wondering if I should get a nexus 7 instead of a kindle. While not as great for books it might be better at tech sheets for apple training.

My only problem with google books is that their selection is limited compared to ibooks and kindle >.< dont know why, publishers are turds.

But I think im gonna get a nexus, mainly for reading stuffs. Also Amazon is an evil company so theres that.

I don't need a real tablet. I have an orig iPad but figured too clunky to take to work.

I wanted a kindle for something to read books on the train, along with potential of reading the apple material for potential certification.

It's Opeth's latest album from last year and it's brilliant so far.

Real men play 4x games. Don't listen to rahk.
Click to expand...

Now I forget, are 4x games the ones like Endless Space and the Civ series? Because I like those too, but they tend to take up a lot of time, so I have to set aside a fair chunk of time to play them seriously.

I'm beginning to think I play too many games...

I thought you meant the new one when you first posted this! Have you played the base game before? I find it very Civ like, even though it's in real time. You probably get a lot more deep into Civ than I do though. Sins and Civ are the sorts of games where I play new games until I stop making enough mistakes to have one long game and then stop.

So thief collection on steam has no problems other then needing a patch to run them right? I can live with that, esp with the price.

EatChildren: I had no idea The Darkness 2 was suppose to be good?

Yes they are. Yes they do. And yeah join the club.

I'm actually pretty keen for Endless Space. I've still got a bunch of time off after I get back from Japan so I might just invest it in that. Or maybe the latest Civ. Actually I haven't finished Skyrim yet either.

You know they're porn right? Full of sex, poorly written and full of shallow characters. Well porn or a God of War game.
