Eh. They got caught doing something that there is a greater than zero chance most teams do. The issue isn't whether or not they did it and knowingly skirted NFL ball rules (seriously, every team is doing whatever they can to get that little edge) so much as it is the appearance of doing so and...

Cloud was only ok with the Materia Blade, and even then there were far more OP characters. Mustadio with the 100% hit rate archer skill and arm/leg shot could turn off bosses from being able to do anything, like 1/3rd the way through the game. Using the +brave scream deal on your main guy...

The 1.2m number probably comes from when Ixali sealants were selling well on the servers. They still may be (the artisan level 50 crafter gear gets easier to HQ and lasts until the mid-50s) and I think there's a few items that you could do glamours for. 1.2m sounds like the income you'd get...

Your absolute best bet is to make them battle retainers of some kind (whatever combat class you have highest) and then get them as high as possible levelwise. This will let you abuse them for monster-dropped materials, which are basically required to do any post 50 crafting realistically. If...

Trial Roulette is awesome when you get something like Ifrit Hard or something else you can steamroll with half the group afk. Much less awesome when 2/3 of the group are fresh to the event and it requires you to pay attention occasionally. Definitely the one roulette I would routinely skip if...

Yeah emulation is easy. I recently went through the IZJS version and had zero problems. Being able to nullify the majority of the jaggies makes it look very good for being a ps2 game, not to mention the changes that make it actually a class based system instead of everyone having everything...

The problem with Vaan and Penelo stems from the fact that Vaan's story is basically resolved for the most part when you rescue Basch, and Penelo's entire viewpoint is hanging out with Vaan. So really, they should have been nixed when you get Basch and Ashe into the mix. Make it a 4 person...

It also made it difficult to connect with most of the characters really, minus Balthier and Ashe to a degree. And the last chunk of the storyline that, paraphrased, is: "Oh cool, interdimensional creepy beings have been controlling the fate of Ivalice for a long time and we never knew it. But...

The Clash of the Titans remake had a piece of arabic mythology literally use a suicide bomb attack on Medusa. That's a special kind of terrible.

Eh, the equipment stuff from 10 was kind of crap, imo. Either it didn't matter for 99% of content, or you had to have specific stuff on it to survive an encounter, which wasn't really that open until post-game anyway. And the weapons were equally crap, as you either had crap with like +5%str...

EQ1 is just a series of servers and a couple of dudes producing content at this point. Maybe even a woman! If it "bled" money, it wouldn't be a thing unless a Daybreak exec was personally funding it. Which I doubt. It is a super low-cost investment that probably produces a reasonable return...

Alright, super thin was definitely a mildly alcoholically empowered statement and not really accurate. But, if you have muscle mass on you, 5'6" and 150 would generally look pretty ripped. Aside from that being a dumbish statement (though I would say that if you were anything above 5'6" and...

I don't think anyone said that turn-based can't work, just that groups of characters standing across from each other waiting on ATB bars to fill would seem a little archaic. For example, if when you aren't selecting an attack, your character would "look" better if it was actively doing...

13 and 13-2's combat system was turn based, it just looked more action-combat during the animations than other FFs. The combat being auto-attack for the win is really just the same tactics that have been employed in rpgs forever. You try different attacks and spells until you find out what...

You have got to be like 5'6" or so (my height!) if 150-155 is anything resembling a goal. And that is super thin for that height. If you don't see a 6pack at 10% bodyfat, you are not at 10% bodyfat hah. Even genetics has to pay a serious toll to standard bodyfat makeup, and unless you are...

Talk about a complete motherboard makeover, damn. Time to invest in ASUS stocks, imo.

Eh, it is comparing speeds with standard memory, which in most machines is like pc 1066 at best as an average. Considering most "gaming" PCs are running DDR3 at a minimum, and at much higher bandwidth allocations, I would be surprised if it is really that much of an increase over gaming rigs at...

Driver issues maybe with Nvidia/AMD, but aside from that no. I expect the next week to be full of constant updates/patches etc, so holding off for a minute won't be a bad thing. If your current setup handles whatever you do fine, it will continue to do so. I will 100% advocate that to...

Yeah, sub 51 is 100% armory bonus (having a higher class) while 51+ is 50% armory bonus for having a higher class.

Can't really argue with the silent group/protagonist angle for IX. It is a pretty standard setup with any "choose your own party" type setups, and not something that DQ games generally do. I enjoyed the game for the mechanics/storyline outside of that, and while the main character does have an...

IX is Nintendo DS exclusive, and X is a mmorpg/Wii/Wii-U japan exclusive at the moment. I actually enjoyed IX as it sort of took from the Skill system of 8/6 (more 6 though) and was a more open ended game path. Right up until you try to do any extra game content, then you are falcon-knifing...

Depending on how fast you go through the content (regenerating rest xp while offline, mostly) and if you keep up with dailies, you'll probably run out of rest xp either right before 58 or slightly after. I did every single quest in the xpac (finished all the pre-xpac storyline stuff before it...

Honestly... just cast stone 2 until you get stone 3, then just cast stone 3 while keeping your chocobo out. Use fluid to interrupt an ability or just burn it on cooldown for added dps. Repeat forever! If you crit a Stone2/stone 3, you outweigh the damage using the gcd for a dot pretty heavily...

Not to beat a dead horse (even though I haven't logged in for like almost two weeks, haw) but the biggest boon you can do yourself when it comes to crafting is to have at least one combat class retainer (or 2, or 8, since the gatherer ones apparently suck) and use them to avoid having to run...

Beat Moon Lord on expert without dropping down to Normal at any point on a fresh character, and stayed ranged the whole time. Rough is a good way to describe it, and the Solar Pillar stuff is retardo mode. Died more there than anywhere else in the game combined. The fact you almost need to...

It isn't so much a hang up with temperatures, but I know they like their meat cooked a certain way, and they won't enjoy it as much otherwise. The sous vide (for steaks) just doesn't save me much time away from the grill/kitchen. If I'm making a specific dish, then what I make is what I make...

If you read the post, I never said I cook 11 steaks occasionally for friends, I said that out of the 11 people I occasionally cook for, only 3 like medium rare. Cool beans if the people you cook for all like theirs the exact same temperature. Mine do not, so sous vide does not work in my...

If you are using Win7, you need to have Sp1 installed. Windows 8 needs to be at 8.1. The file is downloaded through windows update, so it is possible you may have modified the settings to show only specific types of updates. Go into the windows update UI and then change settings, and make...

Click on computer hardware, then cables, then type in displayport? If you mean in stores like BestBuy, I find their cabling options shitty on a good day, and overpriced everyday.

Yeah, definitely not telling the usual friends I hang out with/cook for occasionally that they're all getting medium rare or nothing, haw. Some like theirs so rare it is barely marked, others towards the medium-medium well end of the spectrum. Medium rare would make exactly 3 out of 11 happy...

I think what the primary argument against doing eggs in the morning like that means you need to get up two hours before you want to eat them to get them going. Which if you are cooking breakfast for 20 people or something is totally worth the time difference (arguably) but for yourself or 2-5...

Alright, you are trolling. Thanks for the heads up.

Jesus. Ok, I'll bite, you troll jerkbauble. I typed "Superman" into google, and then went to the very first image represented. This is what it gave me: I then went tofor Mr. Reeves's version. And then I compared those two pictures to Look at the bodytype, dude. Cavill clearly has...

Just making sure, but are you only looking at the guy's hair to determine if he is rendered as an actor or something? Because Christopher Reeves -never- looked like the drawing you just posted. Henry Cavill looks far closer to that aside from the hair flip. Airbrushed/photoshopped or...

Not trying to start an issue, but you need to look at the comic version without taking Reeves into consideration in order to see what I am saying. Superman is drawn as a V-bodied individual with greater than average musculature. Reeves and Routh look similar once done up to look like Superman...

He looks closer to Christopher Reeves than he does Superman, you mean. Christopher Reeves didn't really look like comic book Clark Kent, but he was the actor that portrayed him, so a lot of the older generation folk who saw/loved those films (myself being one of them, of course) equates that...

Hah, a new player trying expert is hilarious. It's ball crushingly difficult for people who understand the game. With that said, there is almost no challenge to the normal mode bosses on expert once you have hardmode gear. There is a big leap in both damage and defensive abilities when you...

Both, clearly. Weak badguys are honestly an issue that DC doesn't have to deal with. People -know- Superman. They -know- Batman. There are more than 5 movies for each of those franchises at this point, and that was happening 25 years ago.(goddamn I'm old. =|) "Good" Marvel movies that...

Gangsta has a serious Gungrave (non-futuristic enhanced human weird shit) feel to it, and that is awesome. Preliminary estimate is that Gangsta and Overlord are the kings of the season.
