I liked the re-record of "Semi Charmed Life." Even though I liked it better than the GH:VH version, there were some issues with audio quality.

Good to know - thanks Jet Grind.

There's no such thing as too much violence.

The more overboard it is the better.

Man speaks the truth.

Also, any God of War game shits all over Bayonetta.

they're both fucking amazing, and they pity those that try to make people choose between them. how dumb.

"I LOVE Y SO X SUCKS BY DEFAULT"

ohhh game/console wars. gotta love the hilarity.

:lol :lol :lol

I'm not trying to troll this time. I fully expected Bayonetta to be my goty. I can't even put into words how disappointed I was in it.

You're wrong.

 

[NameGenerated]

Besides the combat and frame rate, Bayonetta is meh in like everything else. Terrible cutscenes and story, decent to good graphics, boring bosses, retarded looking main character.

GoWIII just keeps blowing me away.

I wish I was playing that now. I just started data transfer #1 so I'm booked for the next six hours probably.

Phat 250 -> Slim 120
Put 60 in Phat, format
Slim 120 -> Phat 60
Put 250 in Slim, format
Phat 60 -> Slim 250
Put 120 in Phat, format
Find someone to buy the Phat

Edit: Annnnd it fucked up already. It's saying I don't have an ethernet cable plugging the two together and I do.

Unplug ethernet cable from both, turn both off, plug cable back into both, turn back on and voila! I recommend leaving your recieveing ps3 on the tv after you've started the handshake option because you have to accept a format.

Also fuck droid screen protectors!!!!

Someone bought one of my Netflix Xbox Live 1 month codes on eBay for £3. I have 25 for sale. If these sales trends continue, heeeeyyyyy!

What is that like 6 bucks?

That's pretty good for no work at all.

I hope you're not implying getting five years worth of month codes isn't hard work

I guess it's like, $5 or so.

 

[Chris R]

wtf is this shit?

shit is what that shit is... PURE SHIT

Damn you RBN people getting good songs and shit

 

[XShagrath]

Blah blah 3rd world console blah blah.

 

[Cahill]

*looks at upcoming DLC*

I guess my prediction was dead on, except for Little Fish. We have RBN, enough with the unknown-for-a-reason indie bands, HMX.

...but then what unknown-for-a-reason indie bands will our PS3 brothers play?

I plugged it in the first time with both of them off. I stole a better cable from my router and it's working now. I'm on step 2.

Also, it doesn't look like FF13 saves are locked. My saves were on both systems after the transfer.

Edit: Why are the GoW3 Ultimate Editions still selling for so much on ebay? My shitty gamestop had at least ten of them sitting on the floor of a display case.

 

[NameGenerated]

Wow. Just the DLC codes are going for over 20 dollars. :lol I should get in on that.

 

[DuckRacer]

...There's DLC codes for GoW3? What the hell for?

 

[Baker]

...There's DLC codes for GoW3? What the hell for?

Everything in the UE was just a dlc code. The skin, the challenge maps, the "documentary," and the two soundtracks.

I would have sold it upon arrival if I didn't get it for $80. Pandora's Box is lame and useless.

 

[Terrordactyl]

They're selling for that because people thought they were all claimed because everyone met their preorder allocations.

PAX crew! How do you feel about this:

http://rockbandaide.com/rock-band-2-tournament-at-pax-east/

I don't think I can FC all of those on drums but should be worth trying.

yeah i'd be up for anything. I'm bad ass at both guitar and drums so whatever. I don't like that it's scored based regardless of difficulty though. some songs it's ridiculously easy to get a higher score just by playing hard. f that.

I probably wont be there until 6 or 7 friday though, gotta work earlier in the day.

 

[XShagrath]

I'm up for whatever at PAX as well. I'll grab vocals if we're doing any of the tourneys.

Really wish there was some showmanship and difficulty factored in there as well, because those always bring the most entertaining part to any tourney, for both the participants and the audience. I've seen stage-diving, backflips and totally bad-ass guitar slides at some of the ones I've attended/judged.

Seriously. I doubt we'd have a chance to outright win it based on score alone but if those were factored in we could probably take this shit. I'm totally down to try anyway though. Should we pick on of those songs ahead of time or what? I'll practice, drums are obviously my strong suit but I can play guitar as well.

 

[XShagrath]

If we're just going in for fun, we have to represent GAF with Paramore!

Our best bet would be with the high-scoring songs. So, Almost Easy or Colony of Birchmen would be the best two (top scores are about 1.97m each), then Where'd You Go? or Alabama Getaway (about 1.8m each). A Jagged Gorgeous Winter is a fool's selection, it caps at 1.5m, the lowest of the options.

• X – “Blue Spark” +

worst DLC ever

 

[Grecco]

Other than Carrie Underwood and Ace i know nothing about that DLC, and i only like to look at Carrie, not listen to her music.

 

[Terrordactyl]

Listened to the Passion Pit album last night and this morning again, I revoke any previous statements implying mediocrity.

haha, if we have a chance we should do a drum-off at octobers to decide. however I'll probably better serve doing guitar so I better practice.. it's been a year since I've really done guitar.. but all those songs are pretty easy as hell.


also, I say we rock the fuck out anyway. Who cares if there isn't a prize for showmanship, but if we kick ass we'll probably get something anyway. either that or I'll bribe them. bwaha.

...that and I just don't want to be the only one of four of us going absolutely awesome up there..

my vote for song goes to Almost Easy, Carry On My Wayward Son, Colony of Birchmen, or Night Lies. (or maybe A Jagged Gorgeous Winter)

 

[Grecco]

I never suggested the game wouldn't be good...I love playing the Splinter Cell games...

but an 8 hour story and no Spies v Mercs makes it a rental.

8 hours of awesomeness is better than a 12hr game with filler.


Also since when is 8 hrs a short game?

 

[Ashour]

Phew, Talk about a long day. My friend had an accident and I had to take care of a lot of stuff for him. The good news is he's fine

I see you guys been talking a lot today, time to catch up.

 

[overthehill99]

I watched some boss battles on Youtube and that game looks borderline insulting with all the gratuitous violence. I guess if you are 15 it is the greatest thing in the world, though.

The whole slick of Bayonetta is a super sexualized main character. What, is that aimed at grown men?

 

[Terrordactyl]

I don't think it is short, it's just offensive that they wont be bringing back spiesVmercs. The singleplayer experience in Splinter cell has never been amazing, I doubt this one will change that either, it'll be fun and slightly memorable, but ultimately something you wont want to come back to.

Boom.

Hey Dave

Final Fantasy XIII, the latest installment in Square Enix's seminal franchise, has sold over one million units in North America in its first five days -- the company says it's the biggest first-week performance in franchise history.

:Smug

 

[Mileena]

8 hour campaign with no Spies vs. Mercs = bullshit. SvM adds infinite replay value so an 8 hour campaign wouldn't really matter.

 

[Grecco]

I played Spies vs Mercs maybe twice on Chaos Theory. So meh.

 

[ravien56]

Listened to the Passion Pit album last night and this morning again, I revoke any previous statements implying mediocrity.

I just finished listening to Chunk of Change, gonna do up Manners tomorrow but yea good album. Big fan of Sleepyhead, Smile upon Me, Better Things. I've got your number is meh as is Live to Tell the Tale.

 

[MrOctober]

Yeah it took me two listens to appreciate it as well. I'm glad you like it.

 

[bounchfx]

since 80 hour rpgs.

but it's funny when you think about how long most nes/snes games were. most were like an hour tops

 

[MrOctober]

If we're just going in for fun, we have to represent GAF with Paramore!

I'm good with this.

I'm also good with going for Almost Easy or Colony as well if we're trying for scores though. There's no way I'm playing that Main Drag song. I hate it and I don't even think I can beat it on drums, the pattern is fucking awful.

Also you better believe you won't be the only one up there going stupid crazy Bounch. Not with me and Shag on the stage as well.

 

[Terrordactyl]

since 80 hour rpgs.

Yeah after 20 hours of (sometimes cruel) trial and error.

I demand someone shoot video of this PAX RB event.

 

[Grecco]

since 80 hour rpgs.

Eh not a whole lot of RPGs last 80 hrs these days. Most that due are based on shitty grinding.

 

[Mileena]

I take it you've never played Persona and Disgaea

hahah, alright good. I won the beatles thing but there weren't 10k people there, only like 150 or whatever... I know there's some crazies out there.

I'm fine with doing paramore for gaf, but I'm curious of the way they're doing scores.. Even if we 100% every instrument on Paramore, a band could 70% almost easy and still have a higher score.. so I don't know..

I was thinking about doing drums on the main drag just as a shout out to john haha.

 

[TheGreatDave]

Hey Dave


:Smug

No accounting for taste. Hopefully most were on 360.

BTW, I submitted my design for the Guitar Hero t-shirt contest thingy.

Hopefully you all get the chance to vote for me.

 

[Ashour]

8 hours is OK especially if the game was entertaining and had a lot of memorable moments.

 

[ravien56]

Taking the ass kissing route eh? Also, I bet it sold better on ps3.

 

[Mileena]

Taking the ass kissing route eh? Also, I bet it sold better on ps3.

Obviously it did... I'd be surprised if 360 had over 40% of the total sales.
