i need to but dreading the effort i'd have to put into prepping a DriveClub photo contest thread. the only thing i got so far is a possible thread title of "DriveClub Photo Contest: Corridor Photography"

bitch I'm taking calls.
I can't really hate, dude is going to do what he has to in order to feel fulfilled and secure in his faith. I don't agree with that kind of mentality but I know lots of people in real life share a similar mindset in regards to religion i.e. shutting down or discouraging discussion that gets too difficult. I just try to let them do their own thing.

Thread is ripe for the trolling though.

Psh, let me know when you're desperately waiting for new chapters of New Waves to come out.

Oh I am update. The Breaker New Waves is in my top ongoing series. Shit a thrill to read. Old men be flexing hard these youngings

Breaker was boring, i need to give ti another shot.

It start off slow. If you still can't get into it after the prequel(The Breaker) then I wouldn't bother getting into New Waves.

I would also recommend Veritas. Such a hidden gem.
 
Finally completed Vault of Glass last night and I can honestly say it falls into the top 10 gaming achievement categories for me...bungie did a helluva job putting that raid together.
 

Parallax

best seen in the classic "Shadow of the Beast"

Veritas would be dope if it wasnt for the nowhere ending. Dude needs to come back to that.

real shit

if you ever hear someone going in on "the end times are approaching", just dismiss the fuck out of them and keep it moving.

the statement just shouts from the rooftops the lack of perspective one has... literally the best period in human history and improving every day

edit: also, devo is the mother of all haters. literally went on two 15-kill streaks and she talking about some 'how about you hurry the fuck up and capture point C'. i ain't slayven, you swagger jacking shotgun noob

One time this witness came up to me and gave me the lowdown on living eternity. I listened since I was bored and then she started saying some off the cut coy shit like "there was Adam and Eve...not Adam and Steve". I looked at my invisible time and said "WHOOPS TIME FOR WORK"



Even though I didn't have to go in for 2 hours.

End times talk always reminds me of wacky conspiracy theorists.
Can't knock his hustle since I'm a believer myself. Whatever gets folks to see what this spiritual thing is about...then its all good I suppose.
I don't know so much about that. I think there is such a thing as becoming spiritual for the wrong reasons. I just try to cut serious spiritual and religious discussions some slack on the internet because even though I'm not religious myself I get real tired of people going out of their way to slam people of faith. Zero tolerance for Haterade like the Adam and Steve type of bs though.

Why dont more games copy Alpha Protocol in terms to how they treat dialogue? Are there any other games with unique innovations?

end time folks don't bother me as much as Illuminati Niggas. " See how he uses E in all the words that are spelled with an E? The E stands for the all seeing eye of the Illumanti".

Yea I feel you on that. I avoid discussion of anything spiritual on this board just to save the headache. I got my taste of how ruthless some people who don't believe in anything spiritual at all during the Ouija Thread.
 
Fuck eBay and people. I sent out some Turtle Beach headphones to sell and the ass hole canceled the payment the day after. Now I'm about to spend $38 on shipping alone because USPS wanted $10 for the initial shipping, and they want $18 for the package intercept. I'm about to just take these headphones and give them to my bother or dad. All of this because some asshole wants to scam me..

After all of the shit that I sold on Amazon, I go to eBay and it lives up to all of the rumors I've heard. Fuck.

Knights of the old republic is one that came off of my head. I still need to finish that game too.

I used to be a nati nigga until I realize that it's backporch prophecies. It all started when I had a nightmare that Jay z's album cover to Kingdom Come was turning into a monster and his music started to sound like baskmasking messages.

I haven't fucked with ebay since I got a scratched up copy of Smackdown Here Comes The Pain from a buyer.

My wife is a ebay head while I'm a amazon junkie.

Actions not words though. That looks for all intents like a self fellation.

Because AP was a flop and has design issues coming out every orifice. There are lots of bad games with great concepts, but it's hard to get past the bad game part if the equation. For example, I think the best stealth I've ever played was in Rogue Ops on PS2. Ain't nobody gonna cop that shit doe.
 
Honestly, I can't really bring myself to give a damn about any group. Religious, Atheist, conspiracy theory, Illuminati, Conservatives, etc. I just ignore them all. Everyone is free to believe in what they want to believe in. Just don't bother me because I just can't give a damn about any of it. I'm going to hell? Cool. The government has cameras placed in my house? Cool. Jay-Z wore a pendant from the Black Illuminati and if you play Crown backwards you can hear the message? Cool. Obama is a Kenyan Muslim Socialist? Nah, you're just racist as fuck and should just go away forever. That's about as much as a fuck as you'll get from me.

However, I will say parents/people in general who push that creationism shit in schools need to back all the way the fuck up though. I'm sorry, but I'm not going to entertain stupidity under the guise of religion, there's levels to this shit and creationism isn't one of them. This country is already borderline remedial as fuck, let's not strap a rocket to it and fly full speed into full on lobotomy induced drool territory.

Anyways, that fix GAF thread is just lol. One dude is talking about having more conservative mods because...*uses Redskins thread as an example, then links to a poll that shows majority of non Native Americans don't find the word Redskin offensive*...the fuck?

no. dude creeps me the fuck out. that long winded post about being attracted to 'featureless humans' (not children guys! :3) should've sent off a fucking fire alarm for everyone right then and there but nope

its just like when all of you motherfuckers were like "wow crushdance, you seem to be doing great for yourself! welcome back and congrats for dealing with all of your issues"

this may sound weird

but Alpha Protocol was more of an unfinished game than a bad game

if that makes any sense at all

UNPOPULAR OPINION: the redskins thing? Not racist. I normally come down on the other side of this type of thing, but if the design was done by a Native American and the name is a callback to a kickass Native American football team, I don't really have an issue here.

Let's talk about Obsidian's inability to finish a game then.
 

Oldschoolgamer

The physical form of blasphemy
the little things in that game always throw me

like my second time through, i got a forgery of that guys tome and kept the original while giving him the dupe - shit had me dying

but yo fuck that dragon. i spent 3 hours fighting that motherfucker. literally took my shirt off to further focus my fighting spirit as he had me in 1 hit kill territory for the majority of the fight

fuck that dragon. i bang for mine

Fuck, I forgot about the forgery breh. I should have done that shit. lol

I'd assume there are more dragons in the game, correct? I can already feel the possession nonsense coming from a mile away. Looking at my pawns like, what in thee fuck are you doing? Dragons hitting them with Dream's voice and got em switching sides, smh.

Wait, are you cats struggling on Grigori or Ur-Dragon? And if Ur-Dragon...online or offline?

Edit: Oh you guys are talking about the Drake in the woods. I wish PS3 had streaming capabilities so I can watch you cats get rofflestomped by Grigori and Ur-Dragon. :3

lolol

I hope I catch one in a building. Gonna be so many ricochet arrows on screen, it's gonna be Blighttown levels of low fps.

"She's just like you and me, but she's homless... She's homeless!!"

What song is this from?


lmao

What do Wire fans think of New Jack City?

Awesome film with GOAT quotes.

the bolded part is most likely bullshit.

I love the Skins, but fuck the name. Washington Red Braves? Red warriors? Red arrows? New warriors? whatever. Be done with it. Fuck Dan Snyder.

Imagine that the Native American who designed it was wrong for it.

I don't know the guy personally, he did seem pretty chill(most of the time) though and I like that.

Sitting in the church pew something my pastor always said at the end of every service was to believe that the bible is the absolute word of God. Sorry but there's no way I'm going to believe that everything in the bible is true. I refuse to front like I have the answers of what happens after I die or how everything came into existence. People who show too much zeal for their beliefs tend to annoy me because of they're either really obnoxious or put so little thought into their beliefs, though I suppose that is the definition of faith. "God first", walk by faith not by sight....Yea because God gave us eyes and ears just so we may forsake them, fuck outta here. As much of a free thinker I am, I can' fuck with them euphoric atheists, even if their sentiments mirror my own.

But the Redskin name and design weren't done by a Native American.

What you're effectively saying is that a team could be called the Delaware Niggerbacks but as long as it was designed by a black person you would see no issue. And you'd have no issues with fans screaming out "Go niggers!" every game.

Come on fam.

If it was designed by a black dude, in honor of a badass black team, and the team name was the negroes? Not offended.

because black people never designed stupid shit? or better yet - never did something good in their mind that got bastardized the second it left their possession?
