    Smartphones

    The 4.3 update did something hinky to my samsung keyboard for formatting and autocorrect, while swype hasn't changed much since beta so that's my new default.

    Which Mass Effect installment is your favorite?

    I'd say two, but my wife just glared at me and called me a snob for not enjoying playing multiplayer with her in 3...so now I have to say 3.

    [NO Spoilers] Star Wars: Episode 7 - NO PUSSY SHIT

    Agree 100%. The only reason I kept reading is because I wanted to know the over all story archs for both Legacy and Fate. With better writing and not having 8 different authors for the series, then it might've had potential. What I find hilarious is all this passed the lucas lore and direction...

    I'd still be willing to swap out IPT/MAM for ComicBT that Lusiphur mentioned.

    [NO Spoilers] Star Wars: Episode 7 - NO PUSSY SHIT

    The last few EU novels have focused on the Solo's raising a secret grandchild and mostly playing diplomatic parts while planet hopping. There are hardly any action scenes involving Lea and Han, but when it is present it's straight forward gun fights, not triple back flips so Harrison should get...

    You know you're getting old when.....

    I'll be 32 in March and luckily in my field I still deal with mostly late 50s to mid 60s (Accountants & upper management) but every time I hit up my wife's Bestbuy and am forced to have conversations to "be nice" for her employees. I spend the entire drive home hating anyone in the 18-25...

    I do most of my reading like this on my smartphone in night mode.

    I pretty much only use MAM and IPT for everything, but still haven't found much in the way of comic uploads. Any ideas? Have invites to these two I can swap out.

    EBook Readers

    Just recently converted my epub reader to Play books instead of Aldiko. Saves your spot just like kindle does and super easy to load everything from any web access (Desktop). I don't like how it auto formats pdfs, but I already had those changed to epub anyway.

    How do you help people with finances?

    Could always just give them Dave Ramsey's Total Money Makeover book. If they take it as being preachy or if they get defensive about it then you know they would've done so for anything else you would've said. I don't agree with everything Dave says, but that doesn't mean all of his points are...

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    My wife was told by a local Sony rep that during the Holidays only Bestbuy and Gamestop were getting decently sized to big replenishments. Evidently the Targets and Walmarts pissed someone off? The day after she was told her BB got 80 ps4s and 50 xb1s, and the Gamestop only got 5, so I guess...

    Battlefield 4 (Frostbite 3)

    Put a few slams on a flag pole and managed to bring down a scout heli. God I wish I had recorded it.

    Starship Troopers (reboot)

    The book of I am legend questions of the idea of what a legend is. Boogyman, hero, etc. That stuff is pretty much ignored in the movie, which pissed me off. That's the most I want to say without spoilers.

    Class Action against EA Executives due to share dumping

    I doubt anything -legal- will come of this. Even if it does the legal system doesn't really understand the business of gaming and will probably fuck up anything we would expect or need to happen to prevent future situations like this. Although, EA is doing a damn good job at being the best at...

    Battlefield 4 (Frostbite 3)

    Does it have problems? Sure. Am I still having fun? Yep. I'm not invested mentally in this at all and that makes it fun. If this was a mmo I'd probably be bitching more, and I can still bitch about Simcity. I'm far from a fanboy about anything these days(outside books), I just don't complain...

    Battlefield 4 (Frostbite 3)

    The cannot connect message you get from ps4 is because the server it tried to quick join was full. I actually entered a que for the first time today so this might be fixed? The only time I haven't been able to play was due to Sony network updating, nothing to do with EA/Dice... For the last...

    Battlefield 4 (Frostbite 3)

    I've noticed on CR that their server location impacts lag quite a bit. A ton more than default maps anyway. I've bailed plenty of servers due to their location based on time of day. I'm in Nashville and I've never had this problem in a FPS before. Just realized how to unlock the MTAR. That...

    Battlefield 4 (Frostbite 3)

    If you get that bored or just need to task can go back an open all the unlocks on each weapon. Or at least service star each weapon. I play randomly, but I'm only up to 18 or so. Venir_1 is my screeny if you want to squad sometime.

    Battlefield 4 (Frostbite 3)

    A few of my squad even have SSD conversions in their ps4. It's very noticeable especially on chopper steals. I'll probably roll a hybrid for cost / space and the little advantage should be enough.

    Battlefield 4 (Frostbite 3)

    A community dev finally got back to me. It seems consoles getting a windows 8 commander option, or even a smart phone (not tablet) option is bottom of the priorities with all the other problems they are trying to sort. Seems there is a ram problem trying to run the android version through an...

    Meant to ask earlier. Have any of you had any luck with and android emu to run the ps4 commander? Current combo/laptop would be so much better than the old ipad2.

    Battlefield 4 (Frostbite 3)

    Yea I figured it out. The premium is an addon. Guess they wised up from the bf3 launch of that version.

    Battlefield 4 (Frostbite 3)

    Awesome, I'm glad they did with the individual online pass. If I just buy the premium through the PSN will that cancel out the need for buying the base game or is it considered an addon? I'll probably go that way if so. It also looks like commander for this system is still only on IOS? *shakes...

    Battlefield 4 (Frostbite 3)

    Picking this up tomorrow for ps4. Trying to figure my base cost. PSN network needs to be activated I assume and is there an online pass too or does that come with the game. I assume Premium is a PSN bought upgrade? Thanks!

    Smartphones

    Any of you guys rolling the Galaxy Note 3? Pros/Cons? Wife came home wanting one which usually means I get the same upgrade. We've been using the Galaxy 3s since it released so probably time for an upgrade anyway.

    What did you just read?

    I just finished the Iron druid books, by Hearne. Not quite on the level of Butcher, but they were pretty entertaining for only 2 days of reading. The later books simmer down on pop culture references thankfully. Going to do the Long Price Quartet and the Fever series this week based on...

    Black Friday 2013

    I usually wait for cyber monday sales. Last two years we found better deals there than in actual stores. (Wife is a bestbuy manager, she usually asks for an extra $100 to pick up xmas gifts in mass and that's it)

    Huskies have a lot of personality degrees, but their one thing in common is they love to play,play and play. The biggest complaint I usually hear is about how destructive they can be, but that's just because they are bored. We do urban mushing or a 4 hour stint in a football field sized park if...

    Friday The 13th Prank

    He probably had the chain off the chainsaw and might've even had campus security aware of what he was doing. We did tons of shit like this in college. His chances of being shot actually goes down with him being on a college campus.
