I'm expecting Watch Dogs to bomb though.

Football Thread U 2013/14 |OT8| 3rd in a 2 team league
- Thread starter Sleeplessnights
- Start date
Most Gaffers who have the game seem fairly positive about it. I'm not sure if I want Black Flag or Arkham Origins yet.
Anyways, finally made my way back to division three in FIFA 13 seasons. I made a huge drop when I arrived there the first time. I finished the first season in that division with 14 points which was okay but everything after that went to shit. Now my W/L ratio is finally back to a decent number: 100/105. Schalke brought me back to glory.
But why is EA's website such a fucking mess. I can't find my uploaded goals anywhere :/

This is the annual Messi gala.
I remember a couple of sites implementing a new score system similar to what you described a few years ago. Problem was that people would still translate it into numbers so it'd be applicable on metacritics and those sites.
WHAT THE FUCK

Congrats Sala!
If Messi wins it I will stop posting in this thread.
No scores. No metacritic. Just someone written opinion.
I think a word scale would work, although journos being in publishers pocket is a bigger issue.
Probably something within 100-67, 66-34 and 33-0 based on the perceived score. It's a very flawed system.

Scores aren't the issue really. Film reviews have always used scores and it's never been an issue there. I will say the 0-10 scale or 0-100 is basically pointless, they'd be better off switching to the 5 star system. Most reviews in other mediums tend to use that, and it works well enough for Giant Bomb.

What's the difference between 4/5 and 5/5? Or 1/5 and 2/5? Not much, really.
Every game is flawed and there's no 'slightly shit' games either
This goal from 2 years ago is weirdly similar to our 2nd against Fulham.

Ah, my life at the moment is comparable to Office Space. Consultants are a total joy and I'll probably be out of a job this afternoon.

The console warz this morning have been delicious. The Xbone seems a ghastly piece of hardware.
WiiU has been saved.

the BF4 thread got me thinking: how many "hardcore" gamers on gaming side are playing with awful TV settings and massive lag?
must be the majority.

Yes and no. It provides a better product differentiation than the Xbone does. But in and of itself the Wii U is an even more execrable piece of hardware.
That sucks
On the bright side, this will give you plenty of down time to make hilarious gifs and pics for our collective amusement.
Every cloud and all that.
Not that many judging by the WiiU sales.

The only thing the Wii U shows is that console success is very delicate and not at all guaranteed, especially if you go after a fickle market. People aren't going to start buying Wii Us because the Xbone sucks. They're just not going to buy anything. Maybe they'll buy PS4s.
Nintendo had their chance with the Wii U and fluffed it. They might be able to resurrect it with a marketing push and a good piece of casual software and a huge price cut. But people aren't going to be lining up for Wii U as their de facto console just because they're not satisfied with Xbone.

What's the thesis on Sal?
Xbone is set for a rocky start, that much can't be argued. It's not just on Gaf that people are opposing everything about it. However Sony recovered well with the PS3 last time around and if MS finds a market niche as an entertainment hub they can turn things around.
Don't you think things are different this time around and more difficult to make a recovery? Especially with the rise of mobile gaming.
Console sales probably won't probably reach the heights of this current generation.
It really depends. Overall yes I think you're right, but technology changes so much over the lifespan of a console that it's hard to predict what the next big thing will be.
This is why you ignore most of the opinions on the gaming side.
It's an attempt to push historical treatment of literary magazines (one in particular) towards a concentration on the parts that involve social action, interaction, multi-vocality, participation. Argument, sharing, reciprocating insults, collaboration and whatnot. Namely, the letters to the editor. Because scholars looking at magazines tend to see the correspondence (the mad fucks writing in) as dottily orbiting the "real stuff", rather than as a strong and interesting engagement with it. Essentially, it's a reading of an archive of letters covering the 20th century, mostly involving historians calling each other silly names and authors complaining that they took 15 years to write a novel but the reviewer spent only 4 hours reading it and 1 hour writing a review that killed it off.

The good news: despite everything, we're better than last season. We have more points and a better position in the Serie A.
The bad news: we'll play with Abate-Zaccardo-Zapata-De Sciglio tomorrow vs Lazio.
The worst news: after Silvestre injury, the only defender that still hasn't been injured is Constant.
Also, I can't fix the Sixaxis and I'll have to buy a new one. In a month or so, probably. Rising will have to wait.

Why don't you get one of those crappy third party controllers? Since I'm assuming you won't be using a PS3 for much longer anyways

The time of the ZahALLAH is nigh.
That's pretty cool and interesting.
I really hope so.
Yeah, looks like Arsenal might have to use a chunk of their first XI.
Think he's gonna do great today.
