    Gran Turismo 6.

    I have 3 stars & gold trophies on every Novice class race. It wasn't hard, but for some reason the B-Class stuff isn't opened yet. Hmm... I'm mainly trugging along just so I'll be able to make $1 million credits and exploit the 20 million hack. I don't really have time to grind out the...

    Gran Turismo 6.

    I decided to play this early, JUST to get a million credits and do that hax. I don't realistically have time to play all day long, so it's going to take me a while to raise 1 million credits. PS - I beat all of the novice cup with 3 stars. How do I "unlock" the NB or IB races? They're still...

    Gran Turismo 6.

    Ahh, got ya. the US version is 25 cars and 0 credits. We got the custom chips, suit, helmet & avatars though.

    Gran Turismo 6.

    Hmm... I have the Anniversary one from Game Stop. Entered the code from inside the box and didn't get any extra credits. Just the 30k you start with. FAIL!

    Common movie behaviors that never happen in real life

    I dislike when cops in various movies do the opposite of what's listed. Something happens and they INSTANTLY start shooting at everything. In real life, that wouldn't happen due entirely to paper work. Sure, they'll pull a gun in the case of an emergency, but they fire bullets in movies like...

    Gran Turismo 6.

    Did the Anniversary edition happen to come with in game credits also, or was itjust25 cars? I highlighted that for the idiocy of the comment, but I was still wondering none the less.

    Have any of you ever seen the massive hunk of shit that is "The Last Stand"?

    I will look forward to your reviews. Next best scene, a bad guy walks through some grandmom's house (maybe a store) with a gun while stalking Arnold. He tells her "Sit there!" or something else forgettable. She manages to grab a big shot gun from a basket next to her chair when he looks out...

    Have any of you ever seen the massive hunk of shit that is "The Last Stand"?

    It's the newest Schwarzenegger movie. Complete and total garbage. My dad wanted to see this so asked me to download. I obliged and had nothing going on yesterday so I sat and watched it. Holy shit, it was mind numbingly bad. The lead bad guy was a fucking car! Technically it was the guy...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Well, some Asians are 1st world (like Japan), but they are still EXTREMELY appreciative of virtually everything that you do. I've found that this fades once they've lived in America for a while. The cunts of this country can corrupt even the best woman. PS - My wife is real Japanese. She's...

    Homeland

    See, I don't think telling them the truth was a comfort plan. I mean, if there happened to be audio recording in his office (which is likely), he just spoiled everything. He could have just as easily said like... "I was sent here by Javadi to bake chocolate brownies" and it would have had the...

    Homeland

    The episode was a little confusing. At first he was definitely planning on turning against the CIA and staying there for real. Then he caught wind of a lie from the head guy (or maybe a truth? I'm not sure), and decided to carry out the plan. He wouldn't have told the guy about Jivadi if...

    So I'm sitting in the hospital today getting an IV treatment. The room next to me has this opera classical music playing and it sounds EXACTLY like the slower sound track from Final Fantasy 7, when Sepheroth kills Aereth or whatever. Or maybe it's when you see that his mom is in a chamber...

    I haven't turned mine on either, but through no fault of the system. Just trying to play through my back log of games before I get sucked into some new game for endless amounts of time.

    EQ Classic? Not really.

    They a phase 1 alpha where it was invite only. Then phase 2, they opened the invitations to whomever wanted in. You had to answer a small questionnaire and they would let anyone in. It was a game 100% playable in the original tutorial zone. It was a lot of fun. They had a dungeon...

All this after accidentally ALMOST killing a security company installer's daughter. Thank god she had her invisible...

    For the PS3? Of course there is. They wanted to keep the consoles pricing lower, and they can't really emulate PS3. It needs a whole set of hardware, and adding that to the console is $$ (similar to how early PS3's had hardware for disk versions of PS1 and 2 games which was eliminated in...

    Gran Turismo 6.

    It's like this. These descriptions aren't 100% accurate, but they give the basic idea. A player of GT6 is browsing the PlayStation Store looking for the new DLC on GT6 and happen to see that you can buy credits for in-game currency. vs. A player just comes in first in a Forza 5 race and it...

    The Aeons (Espers) in XII were great. I'm pretty sure the final fight I did in that game was beating the 12th Esper. I could be wrong, but it was after the credits deep in a cave. I remember beating it at least, and it was a real motherfucker of a fight.

    Wii U

    Question about the Wii U's graphics playing standard Wii games.. Do both systems play the original Wii games 100% identical? It really seems that my original Wii with component (HD) video looks better than the same game on Wiii U's HDMI cable. Maybe it's that Wii U is only emulating the Wii...

    Gran Turismo 6.

    I bought this on Friday (anniversary edition) but haven't opened it yet. I've realized that I have a fairly large backlog of games and trying to do 100% in all of them takes WAY too much time. So now I'm going through my old games that I've previously never played, just to give them a once...

    So it seems that a lot of Xbros are really mad at Halo studios (Bungie). It seems that this go around, Destiny (their new game) is going to have permanent PS4 exclusives that will NEVER be available on the Xbone or 360. Bungie : Group : Posts They're also doing the world premier of...

    So, just need to do a quick derail. What ever became of EverQuest Next? I know a lot of us were all in during the opening announcement with that sand art bullshit, but what else has come out as far as the game is concerned? I don't want to read the 1000+ page post about it in the other...

    I had an email today from Amazon. Looks like Final Fantasy XV is scheduled for release in 2014. They gave me a place holder delivery date of December 31st, 2014. They gave me the same date for Kingdom Hearts III. Good deal.

    Wii U

    See, I liked Mario Galaxy because the Wii Controllers made it a fun and unique situation. Plus, you only flick your wrist a little bit. It's hardly like the old commercials where it looked like people were doing Tae-Bo to use the system. Anyway, here's a rundown of my savings on the Wii...

    Wii U

    Here's my update. I had to call 8 targets in my area before one finally had a Wii u. I just picked it up. Only a 23 mile drive from my house. Picked it up and 2 wiimotes and 2 nunchucks. Had 3 $100 gift cards. Total out of pocket was $62.84. Good deal.

    If amazon doesn't have a definite time frame, they grasp at the closest thing they have. In this case, they know Witcher is Coming in 2014, so the last possible day that would be is December 31st. It's a place holder date. If you look up Watch Dogs, it's June 30th. That's because it is...

    Wii U

    So, aside from the new Wii U controller & nunchuck, are there any "must have" accessories? I don't care about a mic or headset, as I'm not planning on doing any online gaming with this system. I'm also not going to get Super Smash Brothers, Call of Duty or Mario Cart, so I don't know if the...
