If you're looking for a linear game with an epic Kefka-like villain, give up now. They just don't make 'em that way anymore (linear games, or games with exceptionally badass villains).

FFXIII / XIII-2 have some open world gameplay. Not nearly as much as FFXII, but it's there. Also, if you're into "gotta catch em all", Enchanted Arms has a ridiculous number of mobs to collect and develop. Can't remember what the game calls the mobs that fight for you, it's been way too long...

Done. Good luck!

If you don't really care about the start menu/start screen issue, and you're going to ignore Metro like the rest of the world, just go Win8 and don't look back. Install something like Start8 or Pokki if you can't deal with the start screen being there (I use Pokki and personally prefer it by a...

Just because I'm curious, what would you propose he do about them? (I personally think they're doing just fine most of the time.)

Wha?http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_Windows_Vista It was the metadata / file copy issue that drove me over the edge, but honestly, Vista's biggest problem was the immature driver situation, which wasn't an OS issue per se. The vendors wised up in time for Win7 (or were given enough...

Ah, that moment where you realize you aren't a gamer anymore and your rig(s) aren't worth showing off to anyone...

Yeah, for sure, but it's never made Apple tip their hand before and it probably won't this time, either. I'll buy a larger phone if they make one, without a second thought.

He can't possibly know that. Apple never shows their hand early.

Truth. Posting in this epic thread for posterity -- now back to lurk mode, since I don't know Ravvenn. Still, some entertaining shit going on in here!

A $1200 Chromium tablet with a keyboard, pretty much. No idea what they're thinking. Unless it's somehow haxable to run Ubuntu (a la ChrUbuntu) which would make it somewhat useful, why bother?

Oh, why not. I spend enough time here. Unless you're going by paypal email matching forum registered email, yeah, we need some way to mention who we are on the payment. My email addrs are the same.

Oh, looks like iOS 6.1.2 is out... and it's still jailbreakable. Hopefully this fixes some of the random battery life related nonsense that's been going on since 6.0.

iMessage is so damn buggy... not surprising in the least.

Obligatory: Wait, is this an Apple product? MUST HAVE!!!1

Hope you don't own an Android device of any kind...

I can agree that if the service issue is simple (the waiter/waitress sucks, for example), but everything is great otherwise, I'll likely try to talk to someone and figure something out before I abandon the place altogether. It essentially comes down to this: If I can deal with it before we leave...

I wouldn't go to that restaurant again, myself. Not for all the apologies in the world. There are uncountable numbers of places to go, and unless that one is Behemoth's favourite place on Earth, by placing him in the situation he ended up in (through directly pointing him out to a table of...

I don't think anyone is taking the morons' sides here -- they and their misbehaving children and friends are clearly in the wrong. There's something about the circumstances in this case that necessitates a bit more caution, that's all.

Prospective welfare recipients should be asked, using a polygraph, if they believe they'reentitledto welfare. If they answer yes (or lie while answering no), they shouldn't get anything. Period.

Could have gone very differently, and your very pregnant wife could have been involved in a (quickly escalating, as you've said) very dangerous conflict. My wife is 7 months pregnant. If someone got in her face, the very first thing I would do is make sure that the both of us got the fuck...

Win8 is nowhere near as bad as Vista was. If you think it is, you're doing something incredibly wrong.

If your CPU doesn't support the NX (AMD) or XD (Intel) bit, you can't run Win8. All Core 2 CPUs support XD (as perhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...icroprocessors).

Wait, did it actually set its own title to bot?

They never come out and say anything. It's aggravating. Then again, they know that they don't really have to announce anything in advance -- people will be lining up for weeks to buy the next phone they release anyway.

The only quote I've seen from Tim Cook related directly to the larger iPhone rumour wasn't so much a denial, but a sidestep, so... who knows. The possibility may still be on the table somewhere in the back of his mind, perhaps for iPhone 6 in a couple years? Now that the iOS jailbreak is...

Danger, Will Robinson. Danger. This has "the rich get richer and the poor stay poor" written all over it.

Most of the trailer trash probably don't even finish high school. I'd start there. While it's true that having a diploma or degree may eventually put you in a better financial position, a lot of people take a very long time to dig themselves out of student debt, so it's not always that black and...

Yes, because putting up with a bunch of bullshit theory for 4-5 years is a good indicator of your parenting skills. Thumbs down.

I've always found that assertion particularly hilarious, since they can't prove you've ever rooted if you do a stock restore. I suppose it's easier to assert with Android given that some of the exploits can actually lead to bricking, but you generally have to do a really good job of not reading...

Hell yes. This game was amazing. I haven't played it for years, but it stood out way above the rest.

Mine is out of the US. Better transfer rates from them to me that way. If you don't want anything pointing back at you, there are a lot of ways to do that, but it'll probably kill your download speed back to your own box. For example, use tor to connect from you to them. Use a pseudo email...

I'd love to know who fucked around with an iPhone long enough to figure that one out. At least it's not as simple as opening the camera app and closing it anymore... that was the way to do this in iOS 5 if I remember right.

Open Settings, then: Or do you not have that selection?

whatbox.ca is great.

It's not that the community is comprised of non-gamers, but they certainly aren't hardcore gamers like we might have been back in 1999/early 2000s. Most of them have no idea what a "hard" game is. And most of them seem to want a game that they can pick up for a few hours at a time and still feel...

Can't always control what baby puts in its mouth. Shit happens. In some cases, literally!

Does anyone have anything good to say about them, at all? Mine just died a horrible death for some reason and I have to replace the motherboard because of it. Going forthis motherboardthis time around, mostly because it has eSATA that won't force me to use the Marvell controller at all, ever...

If the last thing you did was make UI changes, back them out and try again. You probably missed something and the UI is crashing.

Might just be my dock, then. As I said, it sucks.
