I'm reading Ellroy at the same time if that makes you feel better )



I have superb taste. I don't expect a Steelers fan to be able to understand.

You still salty after last week?

Holy fuzzbuckets at the Mass Effect 3 leak. The entire game's story, along with every major event in the game has been spoiled thanks to hackers datamining the private Beta of the demo that Microsoft accidently leaked via the Dashboard update.

Just wow.

Imagine it had been Halo 4...

 

[Striker]

Temptation is one of those maps that was added apparently out of nowhere and I've never been able to get it in MM, even when trying, just so I could add it to the map repository.

I didn't see it come through the CC either

Yeah, it came up for Multi-bomb and Neutral Bomb. No sign of Breakpoint. I'm not sure if basic Tempest is in, or what, but Temptation is terrible.

Not salty. Steelers are a better team than the Pats.

I dunno, I'm from Alabama but a Tennessee fan so I obviously have an SEC bias, but Alabama definitely is a great team. Haven't seen a ton of Stanford this year but I think everyone everywhere can agree the BCS is a bankrupt system. Playoffs FTW.

Jesus, and I thought Steelers avatars were bad. College football is universally terrible get outta here.

I downloaded that, but they made it so you can't play it now even if you downloaded it before they pulled it.

That admission actually makes me feel a lot better right now.

Had it been Halo 4 I might have cared enough to dl it...

Saying the Bills are bad? Tennessee is bad, that's a given this year. And universally bad? That's a bold, false statement.

 

[Havok]

Is that the Tempest variant with Banshee's on it?

That's the one. I guess the DLC matching update worked, too bad it had to be that particular mess.

 

[PNut]

Started my Gamebattle's career today in the Single's ladder. 1-4 so far. It's crazy how good some of these MLG kids are. Learned a lot though. Like if you don't pick up Evade you lose.

Nah, it's pretty terrible. Maybe this year Lord Tebow will win the Orangelime Fiestatime Bowlcup in the SQWISASASDSAD division. I wouldn't know, I watch men play football.

That admission actually makes me feel a lot better right now.

The Pats were beat by the Buffalo Bills and are pretty damn bad, and the Steelers just got gang-banged by Joe Flacco. I wouldn't be too excited.

The Buffalo Bills are pretty good this year. Since your Kylej, I have no doubt you will disagree with me lol. However being a bills fan, and knowing how bad they have been in the past, I really hope they at least get to the playoffs.

I wasn't even that upset when they got beat today by the NY Jets, the Jets defense was fantastic.

I love how the last lady asks if it's going on youtube and then lets them go for free after some toll-booth trivia

That's the MLG Pro Discount effect.

Here's the first video in a series showing my experience at MLG Orlando 2011. Here's episode 1: MLG Pro Discount.

I feel sorry for BioWare. A heavy story-focused game and every story tidbit is out? Not good. Still the leak gave me a glimpse at the ME3 soundtrack. And one track is really nice. Even this track sounds better than the whole ME2 soundtrack. lol.

EA could sue for a loss in revenue, I assume?
Not that they would, but this can't be good for the MS/Bioware relationship.

I really doubt it will have effect on sales. The leak could even help the sales.

 

[Blinding]

It probably will, from what I've seen those that were able to put some decent time into it said that it actually played fairly well, things like that are bound to increase hype and might get those that are on the fence to hop over.

Tashi, how were the wait times for warmups at Orlando? I'll be playing at Providence, and I'm contemplating if I should bring my box and monitor over to my teammates hotel room to counter the wait times or not.

They were pretty great, not a ton of teams so I played a good amount. We also were destroying in warmups so we never had to get up. If you're lucky like we were, it will be a full screen event. If I had to guess, I would say that it will be.

That sucks so much.

Whoever tagged the beta wrong at microsoft and sent it to some consumers, is definitely getting a whipping session in some secluded MS building basement.

Update: #11 Leaks. You wouldn’t know it to look at it, but one of the most popular websites in the country has been scaled down over the years to a skeleton staff <5 full time employees and a handful of vendors and contractors. These are smart, hardworking people who love Xbox and gaming. Hire more people to write, edit and produce? Naw, the powers that be decided to hire a wide swath of overpaid middle managers who go to meetings and kiss ass (this is called ‘strategy’), while cutting resources for the people who actually do the work. Smart. What really sucks is that these few folks that actually DO something besides fluff up their careers will take the hit for this leak, not the assholes who by bad decision-making and horrible leadership made it happen. I say to my friends and former teammates at Xbox.com: Don’t let the bastards get you down.

 

[erpg]

Suck for Bioware, but it's probably the best press they could've had. My girlfriend saw the talent list and was happy.

Bioware's marketing strategy would've probably been more hair metal bullshit and visceral/immersive/engaging action sequences.

I didn't realize Trixie left Microsoft.

It looks exactly like MW2 and you know it.

It really does, and that game was terrible. Played some blops last night, that game has the worst hit detection ever.

Had no idea that Rayman Origins comes out on the same day as Anniversary and SR3. November is a lot more crowded than I initially thought.

Probably, I thought it was out on the 15th, but it wouldn't surprise me if it was out on Sunday.

Still the same week though, will actually turn on my wii for the first time in like a year.

Been so stacked with work this morning that I just remembered to check for the weekly when you mentioned it.

That's the exact sweet spot I want for that weekly. It takes long enough to complete if you're optimal (3 days) to feel like one but most people will probably take 4-5 without having to go supar hardcorez

 

[Ken]

I got about halfway into AC2, but then Brotherhood came out. Put in a good number of hours into the multiplayer, and then some other games came out before I could get into campaign. I'll eventually get around to finishing them some time.

I hope Microsoft learns from this. They better not put Halo 4s entire game on a server as a Locked Demo.

Wow. I didn't know she did either. She was cool as hell when I met her in 04 up there. She seemed to actually be a cool person unlike a certain face of Xbox who took his name from I Dream of Jeannie.

Also can't say I didn't see what she mentions happening to xbox.com staff happen. That's sad too. Very sad.

 

[Deadly Cyclone]

Trixie is working for Edelman now right? Aren't they Microsoft's PR agency? I think she still works on some Xbox stuff.

They should learn already from the Defiant and Halo: Reach leak. Hopefully.

I'm only buying games I really want on Day 1. Here in Europe the prices drop very fast. I can expect to just pay 22€ for AC:R in two months.

You can take every measure possible, but a leak is gonna happen. Usually it's a dude looking for his 15 minutes of Internet stardom.

[Steelyuhas]

Well the reason that MS put up that Mass Effect 3 "private beta" was to test its Kinect functionality, so the same thing will happen with Halo 4 to test its Kinect functionality.
