It is actually insane over there. So many of the threads are just straight out trolling and console wars too.
I'm pretty surprised the TV stuff will only be launching in the US. I mean it's been pretty obvious that's the way the console was going. You'd think they would have been negotiating with companies for this for years.

Pretty sure I saw in a thread on gaming you can just plug them in with a charger cord and they work with PCs

ps4 was for the game devs and they talked about games and game related features
xbox3 was just a whole conference dedicated to the parts we use as a toilet break during e3
also by default if they are making me pay for online im not buying one

I email Games Paradise first thing this morning asking what's happening with my order. No reply as yet, nor do I expect one.
If the items don't ship today, I'll be reminding them of their 'guarantee'. Don't ship my stuff within 5 business days, I get refunded via store credit and they post the items out at no charge. Who emails someone to ask what to do about an out of stock item and then just does nothing for 3 days afterwards? It's pathetic. I just can't express what an awful company they are. They can join Milsims on my 'don't give them another cent' list.
I've already found the out of print items at other stores, so if they screw me around (more) I can thankfully still get what I'm after.

I think I'll wait for a GOOD price drop / bundle. It has to be coming soon, right? >.>

I'm not. International media rights are a cluster fuck. And the US is insanely self centred when it comes to things like that, they probably didn't even think about getting them for most international markets.

it's called an accent. They have a different one to us. They might ask us why we say Call of Judy.
I know this is a turn of phrase, but has anyone actually heard anyone say 'potato' differently?

It's just from an old song "Let's call the Whole thing off."

Yeah, Gaming has been unbearable system wars bullshit going on six months now.
I'll never be able to unhear it now.
Also, put me down for XBO being the acronym. With the emphasis on TV stuff, it's fitting.
Oh my God :O

Nope. I always assumed whoever wrote "Lets call the whole thing off" was just looking for something to rhyme with tomato. Looking it up though, it was written in the 30s, so it's possibly an old pronunciation you never hear anymore.

For cheap shitty beer Hollandia and Bitburger are acceptable. Really easy to put away.

The new Superman trailer looks pretty sweet. Ignoring yet another origin story, the movie looks ok.

I saw Place Beyond The Pines last night, the new Derek Cianfrance (Blue Valentine) film with RYAN GOSLING and Bradley Cooper. Was really great. Loved Blue Valentine and this was more of the same, raw family relationship shit. Also a lot more ambitious in scope though spanning years and incorporating more characters. I think he did a pretty good job though and mostly pulled it off.
Fuck the IPA.
"Talk to Coalition MPs as the election comes closer and there is an even stronger view that the ABC is barracking for one side.''
Coalition MPs think there's a bias against them?
That's the infamous 1994 case right? Apparently there's a case this year a bit closer to home. Explains why it's popping up again.
ehh I dunno. Never been a Superman fan. He's just too...immortal.
More excited about realising they're making a new Xmen movie which combines the cast of X3 and Xmen: First Class. Should be interesting to see if they can pull off shifting between two time periods.

Hey, this was a discussion topic for my English class last week. Crazy. None of my students thought McDonalds should have any duty of care. I even brought up the case of that girl who got brain damage from eating bad chicken from KFC, and they said it was her fault - she should have been able to taste that it was rotten.
Your students are idiots. Fix them.
Serve them drinks that have been pissed in. It'll be their own fault for not having tasted it.
BAHAHAHAHAHAHHA!@

Hehe. Dooty of care.
Speaking of Juty/Dooty, has anyone else noticed Americans these days pronounce d's as t's in lots of words? The say secont and shit like that. Drives me nuts.

Days of Future Past should be very interesting. But Halle Berry returning just puts me off slightly.
Superman is definitely too immortal but if we can see a movie of him punching the crap out of something or someone then I'm down for that.

Am now off work until mid-August, full pay. Kinda freaking out a bit but also pretty excited!
Also drinking a 14% beer that cost me $30 (long story... well, not long, they were sent from Norway) to celebrate.

I very much enjoyed the Reddit thread a few months back where some southerners couldn't hear the difference between words like 'tin' and 'ten', 'pin' and 'pen' due to the way they speak.
