    Dark Souls 2

    Dont be so mad. I never said "It's not a bad port if you had the equipment". It has issues but they're overblown. When you go to buy the game on Steam even says USE OF CONTROLLER IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, go take a look. I wouldnt buy a flight simulator game if it said it was highly...

    Arkk's Weight Lifting / Fitness Thread

    Major broscience incoming: What I've always done is work up to my lifting weight. If its squat day, Ill do my first set as 145lbs, for 10 reps or so. Then bump up the weight in suitable increments until I reach my first "working" set of squats, in which is a srs buisness 10 reps. Itll look...

    The Beer Thread

    I would say Youngs is more smoothe and milky, while the Rogue is more "beer-like", it has more bite to it.

    Protein powder. This stuff is bar none, literally the best protein powder/drink money can buy. Its pricey. This is the drink hospitals give chemo/cancer patients to put on weight. Packed with all sorts of nutrients and protein. Drink as a postworkout/mass building shake...

    Cheap healthy meal staple of mine. Its plain, beware. 1/3 can of black/kidney beans. (A can is a dollar, 33cents/serving) Heat in microwave for 1 min 1/2-1cup of brown rice (I buy the precooked stuff, rice is cheap as hell) Microwave for 5 mins. Mix with beans Chicken Breast- Buy some Pace...

    The Official Guitar Thread

    This may seem like a dumb question but: When learning new songs, how much do you refer to tablature? I try to pick some out by ear, but it can be tedious and frustrating. I really want to "feel" the notes playing and be able to pick stuff up by ear, but man, its tough. Sometimes I feel like...

    I have a shitty $300 steel string fender acoustic I fingerpick on, so I suppose I should invest in a nice nylon soon. Thanks for the advice guys, Ill just get more strict with my practice.

    Liquors & Cocktails

    I discovered this bourbon a few weeks back while browsing the shelves for something new to try and was highly satisfied. Its a step above Jim Beam and other mid-range bourbons IMO, but only costing a dollar or two more. Taste great on the rocks, with sprite or cherry coke (the ladies love that...

    Dark Souls 2

    Ive had a 360 controller for my PC for a couple of years now, so it wasnt a big deal for me. I installed it, typed in my xbox live info and played. Never had any issues with GFWL. Looked great and played great from day one so I left it alone /shrug.

    The Official Guitar Thread

    Need some advice from advanced players. Been playing off and on a few years now. I love playing. Heres the thing. My hands are huge. My fingers when fretting hit other strings and make my playing sound dirty and unclean. I sound okay on an acoustic, but on an amplifier I sound sloppy. I like...

    Arkk's Weight Lifting / Fitness Thread

    On wednesday I did this. Heavy sets of deadlifts of 4-8 reps, supersetted with high rep squats, 10-15 reps. Killed me. Loved it. Have to plan a few days ahead and work your schedule around it as its so taxing on the body, but man, I felt it.

    EQ Never

    The only point Im trying to make is that while IP may garner a large initial surge of players, it will taper off it the gameplay doesnt cut it. Nothing is better advertising than consumer word of mouth. Ill cite Warhammer, Star Wars, and Conan as my examples. If EQN comes out and its...

    EQ Never

    This post is the truth. The IP really means fucking nothing. Nothing. Sure, if its Star Wars or Warhammer it will have an initial surge of people logging in but thats meaningless after a couple of months. Why? Because if it sucks, people wont play it. It doesnt matter if the IP is EQ, the...

    Dark Souls 2

    I think what I liked most was the "realism". It gets old in RPGs and other action games when the big fucking demon hit you with his sword and its like nah bro its cool, even though that sword is twice as big as your character and the demon is twice your size, it only took 100 hp and you got 2k...

    Dark Souls 2

    I have Dark Souls on PC and I love the shit out if it. I really dont get the complaints about the PC port, granted you use a controller for it. The non-handholding no bullshit dont fuck around gameplay is the bomb. Best RPG in a long time IMO
