    DOTA 2

    Maybe it's just the (pub games) bracket I'm in, but I've been like 3 games with SB since the patch and SB was still dominating.

    DOTA 2

    Broodmother is pretty fun now...I just dominated one lane the entire game, I was pushing the tower at their base solo like 15 minutes in...didn't get it until a while later, but I was up there and hitting it. Basically I kept forcing the entire team to come and defend from whatever else they...

    DOTA 2

    Just spectated this game, thought it was amusing. It's fun when people do out of the ordinary things.

    DOTA 2

    Granted I've only been playing a couple of months so I don't really understand this level of play so much...but doesn't Navi have a much better lineup? Seems weird for Alliance.

    Grand Theft Auto IIIII - HDD City Stories

    I have an Xbox 360 I bought in 2006. The last game I bought for it was Red Dead Redemption (the only thing I've done with it in years is use it for Netflix and streaming videos.) It has the original hard drive which I assume spins at a dangerously slow rate of speed. From a technical...

    DOTA 2

    Had the most asinine WIN ever this morning. I sometimes like to play a "quick" game before work. We had a Riki who was dominating the other team bad, had 40 kills around 35 minutes. Had a luna, me (shadow shaman,) PA, and lifestealer on our team. The Riki and Luna were geared to hell already...

    DOTA 2

    Beginning soon, users will be suspended from Dota 2 for 30 days when external tools attached to Dota 2 are detected by the Valve Anti-Cheat system Er, so...cheating wasn't even punished until now? Guess they just didn't have VAC tweaked and ready yet.

    DOTA 2

    I know this is old news to you experienced players, but as someone who has only been playing about a month now, I finally thought to do this. (I think I've even seen it mentioned here, I just didn't think to start doing it until recently.) Deselect "all pick" and play every other game mode...

    France! Jtai cass?!

    That's what I've read, to distract you...but I think this woman was straight up looking for people dumb enough to give her money. She was by herself and I saw no throngs of kids waiting to start pickpocketing me as I was sitting down (I was sitting on a bench at the time, they couldn't have got...

    France! Jtai cass?!

    I just got back last Tuesday from two weeks in France. Mainly in Paris, but I also went to Caen, Strasbourg, Reims, and Epernay. I was paranoid the first four or five days after reading so many stories about pickpockets and I used a money belt, which I found quite obnoxious to use, so after...

    France! Jtai cass?!

    I've been in Paris a couple days now...this place assrapes you for money at every turn. I unknowingly bought a cappuccino this morning that was 7 euros. For a small goddamn cup of coffee, at a restaurant. Will tell you more when I get back home, also going to Strasbourg and maybe Nice.

    DOTA 2

    Explain something to me...never watched any of these before. Did they just give up the match because they knew they couldn't win at that point? Or it seemed to end when everyone was dead at the same time? Is that how it works in competition?

    DOTA 2

    I've never seen so much neckbeard, loser rage before than in this game. Very amusing, actually. Nothing quite like the impotent rage of some autistic dumbfuck railing at you after not knowing the absolute perfect things to do, or where you should be on the map, etcetera. They seem to get more...

    DOTA 2

    I've been playing like two weeks now, but I had the most fun game yet this morning. I was Phantom Assassin...me and another dude were getting shut down at the bottom, having to run, back off, ran back to base, ended up dying a couple of times, and one of the other lanes wasn't faring much...

    DOTA 2

    (Newbie perspective, think I'm like 14 and 5 now.) I've had quite a bit of luck playing Io a few games now. I feel like I'm contributing a lot when I heal / mana up teammates. If all my items are up and I tether, you can get someone back in the fight quite fast, resulting in quite a few...

    DOTA 2

    Yeah, I felt like I wasn't doing anything, so I figured something was out of whack with what I was doing. So I'll probably not do that anymore for a while.

    DOTA 2

    Okay, I've got a question from a new player bracket perspective. (As stated a couple pages back I'm completely new to the game and genre, and I'm 10 and 4 right now.) Regarding "jungling," is there a point to this most of the time, or should it be reserved for very specific matchups at...

    DOTA 2

    I haven't been playing many games this year (at all, and in fact I had Steam uninstalled for about 5 months.) So I was getting bored a couple of nights ago, looked at Steam stats, saw 300k+ people were playing this, so I decided to give it a try. I've been reading about these types of games...

    Leisure Suit Larry reboot

    This Leisure Suit Larry game is out now, and it's fucking awesome. Lots of new interactions possible, great, corny jokes, silly humor...it's very well done. Anyone who is a fan of the old Sierra Games will like it. http://www.wired.com/gamelife/2013/0...arry-reloaded/

    Hotline Miami

    I liked it a lot. I really didn't think it was even that hard...some levels will seem impossible at first, but they're so small they're easy to master and quickly learn the enemy's hiding spots. Great music and art direction.

    True Blood

    This show had a lot of promise with its outline and the fact it's on HBO, but its horribly acted and written. I finally stopped watching it after I believe around two episodes into last season. HBO for having so many great shows in this past and present...this one is a major embarrassment. I...

    Falling out of love with gaming

    I haven't played hardly any games this year. Completely uninstalled Steam early in the year. I don't see ever playing an MMO game again. I work 8 hours a day, I drive to the gym right after work, I go to a local park after that typically, and by the time I get home I've only got a few hours...

    Gun control

    That lower is, in fact, legally a gun. You cannot just manufacture them and sell them without the requisite FFL. Buying one from a gun store requires filling out a 4473 and NICS just like buying a complete gun.

    Well, now what?

    It's been an interesting year for me and gaming. I've probably played less than 30 hours of games since December. Not that I've ever been super addicted to games, but that's certainly the least amount I've played in a long time. I uninstalled Steam some time ago. I played WoW briefly last...

    Anyone installed a custom ROM from XDA on their One yet? I'm not sure if I should even bother.

    Smartphones

    I got an HTC One this week. First new phone for me in three years I think, so it's a massive upgrade for me. I'm really liking it so far. I bought a case with it at the AT&T store, an Incipio one. I'm no expert on phones these days, but it's really great. The sound is amazing on this...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Well, let's not go too overboard at this point. When I read the words "your future wife" I had this weird surge go through me. Anyway...I'm gonna talk about some logistics with her tomorrow and we'll see what she has to say. At this point it's all up in the air where she's going to get a job...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Oh, good lord, I have a friend like that. His wife will call like 3 times between 9 PM and 12 AM if he's still out. And the funny thing is, he's this manly-man type dude who was once upon a time a minor league baseball prospect. And yet he still puts up with that shit every time I'm out with...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Ditto, but I don't expect any more than that. I'm ultra-mega-super-casual (not in a guild, don't even have a single person on my friends list) so I just have fun "progressing" as far as I can until I get bored of it. I can say I got my money's worth leveling and tanking a monk up to level 90...

    Wrap cat shit in a box, leave it on the tailgate of your truck while shopping for someone to steal it. It'd be more fun if you could see the results, but still. Stolen from Arfcom.

    Oh. That sort of thing usually takes a while after a season ends. Usually close to a year after. See here, it says for the past seasons. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Dexter_episodes

    Dexter

    What do you mean downloaded? As in pirating them? TV shows are released onto USENET and BT literally like minutes after the episode is over.
