I was going to write like a 3 line blurb from Warhammer40k lore, but suffice it to say that when wanting to passively extricate myself from the presence of a faith based aggressor "Horus Heresy" sounds promisingly religious in nature, at least initially :lol

Holy shit I can't stop laughing at that.

Basically annoyingly-religious religious chicks don't appreciate it when you try to pass off bad sci-fi lore as biblical

I try to avoid these. I do like arguing with them when I do have to cross paths with them though.

It's crap. Guns are way inaccurate(even more than in BC2) and the controls are just stupid.

If I was a betting man, I'd say the chances of me putting my NHL 10 disk anywhere but on the shelf are about as good as the odds that the Leafs won last year's Stanley Cup.

Safari autocorrect is to be blamed for proper iPad capitalization. I really like it so far, given my love for the app store, and since I rarely do anything remotely useful outside of school I've barely used my laptop or netbook since.

Is it good? I got it free on xbla but have mostly been scared and confused, I really should learn how to play properly I guess. Any tips?

I know, definitely a to each their own. Personally I don't know how anyone could have a regular mp3 playing mp3 player. For years ive used my ipod touch for apps more than music listening. So for me iPad is right in my wheelhouse, the inane gaf surfing + email + all the apps I wish I had on my laptop and netbook.

How's deadly premonition?

My Zune has been going fine for 3+ years now. I can keep it in my pocket and use my phone for anything else I need to do. Works perfect. I didn't think a hard drive based mp3 player would last this long but its been a pleasant surprise. I see the ipad as totally unnecessary and lacking direction, not to mention WAY overpriced.

Deadly Premonition is excellent. Play it.

I dunno, I'll probably end up getting an iPad next year. My laptop is getting ready to kick the bucket, so I may end up buying a desktop instead. At that point, I'll need something convenient to lug around for netflix/espn3/internet browsing.

I'd rather just buy a decent netbook and use the assload of money I saved to buy beer.

Wtb apps brah. Zune got angry birds? Fruit ninja? Reeder? Functionally I love my blackberry, has a keyboard and does everything I want it to. I would never describe it or think of it as fun. So that's where my iPod touch comes in, shit load of apps, from kindle for ebooks (which is now on bb too) to sudoku to whatever. I'd never played sudoku ever aside from a regretful puzzle in splinter cell double agent but got a free sudoku app on my touch and turned out to be one. Of my favorite things to do just before going to sleep, or waiting for a prof to start lecturing or whatever.

iPad is overpriced, but then ive already spent over a hundred dollars in apps since Wednesday so whatever, now checking rss feeds is a much better experience than on any pc.

Not a bad idea, I've only used my laptop (my primary computer) for downloading torrents and syncing my iPad since I got it. All the google stuff, email, calendars and contacts syncs super easily, reeder app makes reading rss feeds godly. It does everything fun I want it to, and I guess if I used a Bluetooth keyboard I would be able to use it for writing up documents too.

There are no decent netbooks, at least in my mind. I have one and it's great, it's light, the keyboard is easy to use and I take it to school everyday to take my notes on. I'll still be taking it to school with me this fall. I just won't be using it around the house as much anymore, since iPad fills that niche for lightweight mobile computing and fun stuff (wheee apps, I really like apps)

I'm also totally still buying beer

A nice netbook is almost 400, an iPad is 500... Not that huge of a difference. That'd buy a lot of High Life, sure, but beer made me fat.

Yeah, with it's whopping 16GB of storage. I have an SD card that holds that. :lol

Here's the netbook I have: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/HP+-+Mi...lack/9996501.p?id=1218206183903&skuId=9996501

For roughly half the price I have:

10x the HDD space
a faster processor
bigger screen
4x the RAM


But....have fun with your....apps? I'll have fun with my extra money.

Never claimed it was perfect; just that it makes sense for what I'd use it for--sitting on the couch watching netflix or surfing the internet while Megan watches Top Chef, or taking it to work for note taking (which I currently use my iPhone for).

I don't need a dedicated keyboard or a lot storage for either of those things.

Although I was considering getting one of those M11x laptops and just having the best of both worlds with some compromise, but I wouldn't need to build a desktop.

Edit: Of course, I wouldn't be able to take it to work because it looks like a toy, so I'd have to stick with my iPhone for that aspect.

If your thinking about a laptop for the couch area I have to suggest the as seen on tv table mate or ripoff/clone thereof. I use a 15 inch Dell on mine with enough space beside it for phones and drinks.

I got Carc and got absolutely demolished by an easy ai at the endgame scoring. I apparently have a lot more reading up to do before round 2. Any other suggestions for iPhone games? I have pretty much everything on the gaf spreadsheet, except for zenbound which seems too out there for me. As a dark horse pick I really like Bowquest: Pandamania, 99c with a free lite version. You play as a panda who guards his tower by arrowing various things in the face

It's free in NHL.

We should figure out some way to use it to set up a league, assuming they haven't added anything to the online league mode for NHL 11.
