Sounds like the same tactic being used in the US. They've found a catch-phrase they can use to get the poor and downtrodden to stand up for the people who are stomping all over them. Start throwing around words like "class war" and you're THAT close to "communism" which will get even the most shit-upon citizens all riled up.

Its funny that holding down the minimum wage or an increasing pooling of wealth to the top isnt class warfare, but removing the stupid private health care rebate is...

The problem is, everyone thinks theyre middle class, even the rich and poor... Its why people who earn over 150k can say with a straight face that theyre not well off.

Oh hai Mutes!

You want a Vita?

$199 too much?

How about $191!

[Poimandres]

In what state do you live, and what beers have you tried that you liked/disliked?

I live in QLD.

I like most european beers like Hoegarden, Leffe etc. For local I don't mind James Squire (Golden) and Cascade it tasty enough.

I haven't really had any IPA's I like much, but apart from that I'm game for anything!

 

[hamchan]

7 hours into Bioshock Infinite, game is amazing. If it can keep up the pace instead of deflating at the end like the first game did, then we have a GOTY contender easily. Like, there has not been one slow or boring part of the game yet and I am extremely interested to see where the story will go.

Damn you I can't afford it

Wireless controller? Dongle is plugged in? Uninstall drivers, re-download drivers, reinstall drivers. Then make sure dongle is synced to controller.

Uninstall any other 3rd party controller drivers (like MotionInJoy) just in case.

Other than that no idea.

I wana play bioshock! But I didn't bring my ps3 And even if I did (or go buy one), I can't use it since the tv in my apartment is nailed to the wall in such a way that I can't get to the ports:/

It has been cloudy and dark as shit all day, finally started raining an hour ago lightly. Then nope. No more for you. Fucking mother nature. MAI GRASS IST DRY AND YELLOW YOU BUGGER.

Try (just a few different ones off the top of my head):

Australian
- Stone & Wood Pacific Ale*
- Bridge Road Brewers Bling
- Feral Brewing Hop Hog*
- Moon Dog Henry Ford's Girthsome Fjord
- Southern Bay Le Petit Tronc
- Bright Brewery MIA IPA
- White Rabbit White Ale*

Not Australian
- Garage Project Double Day Of The Dead
- Yeastie Boys Gunnamatta
- St Bernadus Abt 12*
- Kwak
- Saison Dupont
- Sierra Nevada Pale Ale*
- Delerium Tremens

There's a lot of different styles there, just search for them on ratebeer and you'll find out more about them. Some are a little bit of an acquired taste, I've put a * next to quality beers that should be reasonably easy to find and should be easy to drink too.

 

[reptilescorpio]

Recommend me some beer around the $2/canslashbottle mark Cod!

Also the Aldi brand Cider, Renberg, is fucking delicious! Right up there with Rekorderlig although they only have Strawberry & Lime.

Link doesn't take me anywhere.

Also, I don't want one, which is the problem. I have a terribly hard time resisting "good deals" regardless of whether or not I want it or it will be useful :lol

Homebrew.

I'd really fucking love a beer right now, but I promised myself I wouldn't drink until Thursday. Do you think I'll be mad if I break my promise to myself?

For fans of No More Heroes and Fire Emblem

That takes time and effort, neither of which I have :/

Also drink up! Or I'll be angry at you.

 

[Poimandres]

Try (just a few different ones off the top of my head)

Thanks for the list!

I also told myself I wasn't going to drink beer tonight... but stuff it.... here's to Ninkasi!

Also, everyone go get Bioshcok Infinite. It is amazeballs.

 

[codswallop]

But you can get a pretty decent drop at < $2 for 500mL!

Takes me (minimum) about 4 hours to brew, then 2 weeks to ferment, then 1-2 hours to bottle (more if I slice my fingers open on broken glass), then another week to carbonate... So yeah... Easier to just drop some more cash than make it yourself.

Thanks for the list!

Let us know what you think!

I could really destroy a couple Pacific ales after drinking mostly Tooheys in Sydney :/

 

[Deeku]

didn't you feel like a tooheys??

or two

 

[reptilescorpio]

Got dang, no Battlefield 4 on WiiU. Dot dang....

If theres a soundtrack to Bioshock Infinites in -game source music (stuff you hear on radios, PAs, etc), i'll buy it.

So far ive heard

God only knows, girls just wanna have fun and tainted love

At this point it's more surprising when multiplats do hit it.

 

[Johnny Dazzle]

So, from watching the BF:4 trailer.

• COD Campaign (didn't see that one coming).
• Women are finally in the game.
• It's based in China.
• They got a new dubstep track, which sounds hilarious.

 

[Shaneus]

How big is it? Let me tell you how long it would take *me* to download. Maybe that'll make the time seem quicker or something.

Funniest thing is, I wrote my post before I made it to jambo's. lulz

- They did that with BF3 already, it was fuck awful
- They already had a bullshit excuse for no women soldiers, they just don't want to pay for more voice actors

After blops 2 flopped is it any surprise. As for the single player, who cares, it's a bit like buying street fighter for the story mode.

All this beer talk makes me want one. Hopefully there are a few asahi still in the fridge.

- Yeah, I know. Just the fact that they're doing it again :ccccc
- I just saw the thread that you won't actually get to play as them, you think females would have a more prominent role in this day and age.

I reckon it is because EA did some focus testing (like always) and got a negative response. Gotta pander to the crowd to get their money.

Taken from the thread on gaming side.

So why hasn’t DICE opted to include playable female soldiers in Battlefield 4?

"Trust me, there are a million things I would like to do," continues Gustavsson, "it's just that you can’t pick them all.

"I have the deepest respect for the men and the women who choose to do military service. It's not that anyone is better or worse. It's definitely a valid question that we asked ourselves."

They are making a PS4 version though, right when the console is coming out so it isn't like they will sell millions there either.

Call of Duty 2 was some pretty hot stuff when 360 launched iirc.

Anyways, not surprised games aren't coming to the WiiU. I wouldn't make games for it either at this point in time if i was a third party.

What Test batsmen aside from Clarke could you see holding his spot? Without saying, "better than nothing".

I think they should release a port of Battlefield 4 on the WiiU, even if it is just a direct port of the inferior consoles versions. Go low cost, like they did with Mass Effect 3. By the end of the year there will be a decent enough market, nothing brilliant but enough to take that market that COD had on the Wii all those years.

Ed Cowan did well in India IMO.

 

[reptilescorpio]

Article by Chappelli on CricInfo

Good state players these days are averaging 35. If you were averaging 35 when I was playing, your dad would go and buy you a basketball or a footy and tell you to play that.

They really need to focus more on longer form cricket if we want to be top of the world again.

Ed Cowan did well in India IMO.

His 86 in Mohali was nice because he really had to hang in there, which is what we needed a lot more of during that series. In any case he was okay, didn't rise above his average of 33 though which is a going concern.

 

[Ydahs]

What kind of 'app' is it? I can't recall the last thing I downloaded for my phone, I really have no need for apps.

Games are a different story!

It's an AFL app. Displays the ladder in realtime, only app of its kind!

It was downloaded ~150 times in a month on Android, even with heavy pimping on my site and Twitter. It sold that much in a day on iOS, with nothing more than a tweet... will be interesting to see how many more downloads it can get over the weekend.

I prefer Android development over iOS, but the market is very hit and miss. Might go back to focusing primarily on iOS and working on Android only when I find the time.

What kind of marketplace positioning does it get on either platform? I also wonder what the iOS/Android ratio in Australia is, since it would be an app that 99% of downloads would be done here. I also wonder if iOS users are more likely to jump on the app store and go for a browse than Android owners.

I like this kind of market research stuff!

Yay, reservation confirmed for Sono tomorrow night, my mouth is watering just thinking about it

The houbayaki looks pretty nice. Had some in Takayama last year, it was miso paste on a miso leaf. Really nice, but a bit small.

Also, no basashi?
