Fully Agreed. I enjoyed both 2 and 3. I only was annoyed at the horrible story pacing of the third game. But the multi for KZ, RB6 and battlefield games have been my favorite this gen.

I wonder how Hollywood feels knowing its two biggest chances at reliving the glory days of action flicks are two men of mix ethnicity? No one goes to see the F&F movies for Paul Walker.
If fact I wonder how they rationalize a lot of things. Slumdog Millionaire and Life of Pi can't just be seen as exception to the rules or notions these producers have put out about Americans only wanting to see white people struggle.

I was blessed that my younger brother ended up becoming a manager at a Nike Factory store so my shoe collection has expanded like crazy over the last 3 years.
I'm not a big shoe guy but when he offers to grab me a pair for free or for 50-80% off it's hard to say no.

They probably view F&F as the exception. Vin isn't pulling in audiences for anything else, neither is Walker but whateva. I don't think The Rock's resume looks that great either.
Yup, they'll view it as an exception. The handful of industry exceptions are damn near a mountain at this point, but Hollywood's not going to change anytime soon.

Giving Renner the lead to multiple franchises pretty much shows exactly how highly they rate non-white leads for action movies.

Did not expect that.
I don't mind Jeremy Renner being hamfisted down our throats by Hollywood. At least he paid his dues at lower levels and pieced together his fair share of roles before being given his big break. People like Sam Worthington and Taylor Kitsch on the other hand did very little to deserve being handed the keys to several blockbuster films. Armie Hammer and The Lone Ranger is another example. Nicholas Hoult is probably the next dude who's going to be shoved down our throats, but his path to stardom isn't quite as bad as Worthington and Kitsch.

Quick, someone post Paul Walker's highest grossing film outside of the F&F franchise!

I honestly just don't like Renner in a lead role at all, let alone leading two huge action franchises.
I thought we'd see a lot more action flicks from that Taylor kid from Twilight to be honest. Surprised he only did the one. I checked it out on Netflix the other day it's decent. That kid, The Rock, and Jason Momoa seem like great fits for action flicks but Hollywood is more interested in manufacturing stars I suppose. The inner workings of Hollywood are pretty jacked up though so maybe it's better that they aren't getting the roles.
Paul Walker exists outside of F&F?
No clue, but Running Scared was the shit.

I forgot about Running Scared it was pretty good, besides that and Into The Blue I can't think of any Walker movies.

I love this movie
Me too. I went in blind, and in the back of my mind I was worried that it was going to shift into Snow Dogs territory near the start, but I was totally into it past the halfway point. It's an excellent movie. Kinda long, though.

As long as the dogs dont talk they always makes the movie better.

From the way he described it he didn't have full control until Fast Five.

After Sling Blade and Friday Night Lights I thought he was going to be a star.............then I realized his accent was how he really talked.

Tokyo Drift is one of my favorite FnF movies.
Working retail I ended up seeing it 15-20 times.

It pains me to know that hard R rated action movies are so dead, nowadays. I shed a tear when Dredd bombed in theaters. That movie was so good.

I saw 50 First Dates more than 50 times working at Circuit City. I never want to watch that movie ever again.
Tokyo Drift was "so bad it's good" territory, though. I'll watch that whenever it comes on.

That was good. From what little I've seen of the comics, it felt true to them. Karl Urban's face was spot on throughout.
It's strange to think Die Hard 4 (and I assume 5) is less bloody/graphic than the earlier ones.

Ha, we rep that same SmartTech. That's how I got my PS3 a few days after launch fuck a customer, I needed that pstriple.
Nothing wrong with stating the truth.

Got it.
Jen the Pen? She is an idiot.
If only they actually adopted 60fps as an unwritten rule like fighters and racing games do.
But anyway, Killzone has always had really solid multiplayer, but average-at-best singleplayer. That and the art direction has always looked pretty cool.
what does the framerate really matter when you're steering your damn aim around with an analog stick and generous autoaim anyway?

But why though?
Was rubbing down my knee and memory lapsed and got an itch.
Real talk they should use that instead of waterboarding.

Those old crab joints can't pull someone down without feeling it the next day.
none
Input lag was pretty much a non factor due to everyone having it and the game being played on a controller.
This post reminds me of the torture scene in casino royale.
"I've got an in itch...down there...would you mind?"

That feels good tho
Input lag is based on framerate. It's not the only thing that affects input lag, but it is the primary limiter. A 30fps game can't have any less than 100 milliseconds of input lag. With a 60fps game you can usually go down to a little more than half that. It's the reason why Call of Duty's controls feel tighter than almost every other console shooter.
