    The Wire: Greatest Show Ever Made

    The Wire should come up with a sequel. New actors and a new story, but it can take place in Chicago. One of the most dangerous cities in America for gang violence.

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    There's 2 things I don't like about hard wood floors, but they might be better overall. 1.) I don't like echos, and not having carpet really allows/causes sound to bounce around more easily. 2.) My wife and I walk around the house barefoot. We don't allow shoes inside. Having a cold...

    That fucking xbox fanatic on the other board is like "lol, every PS4 game except for CoD is 30 fps. What a shitty system!" I hate him and wish him death 100 times over. http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/di...-playstation-4

    I have both brown and black shoes. I change depending on what shirt I'm wearing at work on a given day. I'm always in blue jeans though, so that doesn't change ever.

    Genghis Khan Series - Historical Fiction

    While this isn't a book, the movie "Mongol", all about Khan's life, is excellent.

    This Is The End

    So... Was it the talking about rape scene that caused Emma to freak out? Because I sure didn't see Channing dancing in front of her in his gimp outfit.

    [Manga] Bleach (spoilers to current)

    This issue was a little better than last week, but not much. At least it elaborates on why Ichigo's friend is suddenly #2 of the Quincy regime.

    I was trying to count the cuts, but lost track quickly. over 50 of them in the first 45 seconds of that clip, and it just gets worse from there.

    Ok, back to the shoe discussion. I've decided to give ECCO a shot, and 2 of the shoes look like something I would wear regularly. I can't decide which would be better, though. Suggestions please.

    I've read that SSD's in your PS3 are an absolute upgrade. You change from load times of upwards of a minute all the way down to 15-20 seconds.

    [Manga] Naruto (warning: spoilers up to current chapter)

    So that was an interesting issue. Obito is now the Jinchuuriki of the 10 tails. I don't know what that means, but it happened. At least it was better than last week.

    One issue you run into with this is that the Xbox One will NOT replace your standard set top cable box (STB). It will act like a VCR instead, being the go between for your STB & TV. If it were to eliminate the STB all together, that would be one thing (that alone would make it very valuable...

    I just saw this link. http://www.videogamer.com/ps4/thief/...necessity.html Looks like Thief (PS4) is intentionally being capped at 30fps instead of 60. Odd.

    I watched the first episode of Treme. Couldn't get in to it, so there was that. I guess it was cancelled for a reason.

    Don't look at it as a head start. I was thinking they could come back in with a new "Next.5 generation" console or something. Just a little more powerful than the PS4. Then they would have a contender again. Many people would flock over to it as the most powerful system.

    Imagine if Microsoft decided that the product was a flop before it even was released and they decided to delay the release indefinitely until they were able to come up with a better idea. Maybe do another release in a year or two. Let Sony take the market for the time being, but then release a...

    This is the shit the Xbox blowhard keeps spewing at me on another forum. Complete lies. I bet he thinks Zimmerman stalked down Treyvon just to murder him also.

    I saw it this weekend. It was entertaining a lot, yet very slow/dull a lot as well. The oh shit moments were funny. I laughed a fair amount, but this is definitely a DVD rental. Maybe have a few drinks before hand. *shrugs* You live you learn. I say you learn, but I'll absolutely see...

    Rent Vs. Buy housing

    I live in a town house. We have a heat pump. When I purchased the house (we paid $199k when the house initially went on the market for $250), our heat pump was pretty shot. 25 years old and in dire need of being replaced. I took another loan for $7800 to get a new system put in. We were...

    Quantum of Solace

    I'm pretty much right there with you Kreugen. I enjoyed Skyfall quite a bit and wasn't terribly fond of QoS. I think it was all the brooding love bullshit that really threw me off. Casino Royale was great though. I really enjoyed the Parkour chase in the beginning. The one thing about...

    It was extremely easy to follow. They practically spoon fed that having access to no water would drive up the prices making it the most valuable thing possible. His argument is that the idea of no water in a 3rd world shit hole wasn't interesting to him. Thus, he had little care in the...

    I had the PS3 when the console first came out. I decided that I actually like using the controller better than a remote, so I gave it away.
