1. Xbone requires a internet connection. If you don't check in within 24 hours, your system is essentially locked.

2. You can not borrow or rent games.

3. You CAN trade your games to friends but they must be on your friends list and once you trade it, it gets tied to their account. You can only trade the game ONE time.

4. Publishers will have the ability to block you from selling/trading the game.

Oh, MS.

Any pc guys wanna help me find a decent gaming laptop that I can get in ireland/uk?

Bla?

kharma might be able to help out.

Edit: Nevermind.

Just got my copy of Animal Crossing. Anybody in the footy thread going to be getting this game?

Just seen this post.

I'm going to get Animal Crossing eventually but I want to play through The Last of Us first.

@stighefootball 12m
Polish media are reporting Aleksandar Tonev to #AVFC done. Medical Fri morn, €3.2m up front, €0.5m dependent on appearances

Awesome. On to Belhanda! I saw a report saying he "chose" AVFC on some radio show. I wanna believe!

 

[FootballFan]

Its like everything is just combining to kill my hype

MGS4 being a let-down
Current gen
Open world
Focus on psychology and trauma
Hayter replaced by Kiefer fucking Sutherland

Stop whining. MGS 4 lyfe.

 

[kharma45]

eh maybe you are right

If you're looking down the line of PC gaming get a desktop and do it right would be my honest advice. You can get a reasonable PC together for not very much, it all just depends on what you want from it.

 

[K1LLER7]

With Xbox One you can game offline for up to 24 hours on your primary console, or one hour if you are logged on to a separate console accessing your library. Offline gaming is not possible after these prescribed times until you re-establish a connection, but you can still watch live TV and enjoy Blu-ray and DVD movies.

Okay now this i'm not happy with.

Pretty much means you have to be always online and your XBOX1 is only useful for 24 hours without a connection.

I concur. When I got my laptop it could run the likes of BF:BC2 well. Which was nice, but in reality gaming on it outside of my house was a pain. So just use my desktop, which is what it's for, and let the laptop do general crap.

I reckon Arsenal was the best Fellaini could hope for. This ain't fm 13.

I made the same mistake of trying to get a laptop that could game on reasonable money too, was a waste of time. When I come to replace it when it dies I'll be going for something like an ultrabook, something light with ace battery is all that really matters with laptops now. Oh, and a decent trackpad.

 

[Lunchbox]

ditto. I wonder how abusable the 10 family members thing is.

we are all family bro

new friends list has 1000 people limit, so with 5 accounts we get 5000 family members.

I've got a feeling Sony will take a similar stance to MS regarding the used games, along with the buying and trading of games. The publishers are in a strong position and both Sony and MS will have to follow or else risk losing out to their rivals.

[Zabojnik]

For a moment I thought Suhni was back to FootyGAF. :/

Higuain, Jovetic, Tevez. Just pick one and get on with it, Marry.

 

[spidye]

Why the hell is Dante announcing our new signings? Wtf lol

who is doing what?

 

[Yurt]

107 – Gonzalo Higuain has scored 107 goals since he joined La Liga: only Messi and C. Ronaldo have done better over the same period.

Spoiler

I still don't want him

I think I'll be skipping GT6 and getting Driveclub at launch. Sounds like fun, looks decent.

Not bad.

GT's shtick gets old quickly anyway.

I was in Curry's the other day, terrible place that it is, and was looking around at the ultrabooks and they made me sad. They're everything I want, but can't afford, right now. My laptop, which is only a couple of years old is a brute compared to them. It's also nice that these manufacturers are starting to design machines that are actually nice, an effect brought on by the popularity of Apple I suspect.

I'd say it's nailed on. If they weren't all ready planning to -- which I dare say they were -- MS have surely given publishers the power now. If Sony don't, it should be easy for publishers to force Sony's hand by withholding content, be it DLC or going exclusive.

You'll sign him and he'll lead you to CL glory.

Then you'll pull a FootballFan and say how you always wanted him

Quick and dirty translation:

Edit: Fuck google, I can do that better with my basic Spanish skills lol:

I've seen the speculation. I explained him their philosophy. He'll adapt very well in Germany, I hope he'll make European football more beautiful. Now we wait for him. Although he is small, he'll do great for BVB. He'll like it.

 

[Broder Salsa]

By a desktop pc. Be awesome.

7 years in the CL.

I realise it's not a steering wheel game but if it is that would be amazing. Otherwise I'd enjoy it if they did semi-real physics for the controller like Most Wanted. I enjoyed that too!

Can I carry my desktop to work?

Yeah for Windows based machines you have to thank Apple for pushing the design element of laptops forward. Looking at my laptop too, I've a fucking Blu-ray drive in it. Why.

Something like the Sony Vaio Pro 11 or the Asus Zenbook Infinity would be a wonderful change.

Can I carry my desktop to work?

Get both. Thin and light laptop for that and then a desktop for home. Best of both worlds and no compromises.

Carrying a gaming laptop to work would make you look like a bell end too, most are so garish.

 

[Broder Salsa]

Can I carry my desktop to work?

If you really want to, sure.

But why would you want your gaming laptop at work anyway?

 

[Messi]

Lunchtime/lazing off in work. Also I have not owned a desktop in around 8 years.

 

[kharma45]

Just get a tablet for that.

 

[Yen]

I'll be looking a new laptop too soon. My current one ran absolutely terribly for about 8 months - if it wasn't plugged in, charging, then it would run so slowly that Youtube videos would stutter, for example - then for no reason one day it started working perfectly. Still, it's enough to know to stay well away from HP stuff.

 

[Broder Salsa]

You really going to game at work? If not use your damn phone or any other device to browse GAF on.

All I know is that I ended up not liking a gaming laptop at at all, getting a proper desktop pc got me into pc gaming again though.

if sony doesnt publishers will give MS alot of third party exclusive

people thinking the ps3 will be their savior are living in fantasy land and reality is gonna hit them hard in november

It's the approach to 'online 24 hour checks' and 'limited lending/borrowing games to friends' that puts me off. If the PS4 steers clear from this then i'll most likely buy one. I'm not too fussed with the trading of the games but I guess there are people out there who are.

he even explained the philosophy.

well congrats on your second signing

That's because of the limited games at Madrid and the lack of Pirlo providing the service

He'll be clinical at Juventus imo. Could work out well alongside Llorente or even on his own.

Says that the national team matches is a good stage to show himself off to other clubs. He then also claims that he hasn't been in contact with Aston Villa, despite showing up late for training with no explanation to the tv crew but with a national team coach that apparently accepted it, but that he thinks Aston Villa sounds interesting if they make a bid.
