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

    A poster on another forum is frothing at the mouth over the Xbone's "features". He keeps shouting that the Xbone can do everything the PS4 can do, PLUS some! Who gives a shit about features anyway? So yeah, how do you respond to that? I told him that his fanboi system isn't as...

    Go see Cirque Du Soleil's Ka (Also at the MGM) while you're there. That show is the fucking tits. It's like watching a live action movie on the stage. Love Ka, I've seen it twice now. Le Reve was aweful, though. Don't waste your time. I'm a big fan of Cirque shows, and that one wasn't up...

    Xbone's total console release has dropped from 7 million units down to 6.2 million, due to production problems. Roughly a 12% cut in shipments. http://bgr.com/2013/08/27/xbox-one-r...shipments-cut/

    I have giant hands and have never really had an issue with the PS3 controller except when my hands get sweaty from playing too much. Go figure.

    Emerald Weapon was pretty hardcore. Ruby was a bitch, also. Fucking sand traps.

    These are 2 pictures from much earlier in this thread. From June. That's a PS4 & Xbone controller side by side.

    I keep a 5 gallon thing of gasoline, but not in my car. I keep it in my shed to fuel the lawn mower & such. I also keep a few gallons of Kerosene for my forced air heater out there as well.

    Make sure you take some time to hit up the huge Buffet at the Wynn. It's arguably the best buffet I've ever seen, but it better be for like 30-40 per person.

    Ubben said ValueAct had almost 60 million shares, valued today at about $1.9 billion. That would put ValueAct among the top 20 biggest investors in Microsoft, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.

    Very informative post. You have a hell of a memory when it comes to gaming consoles, or did a lot of research for the sake of that post. Have some internets for your hard work.

    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

    That's the thought a LOT of people had about RDJ & Iron Man before actually seeing a trailer or the movie itself. He was looked at as a goofball. What the fuck was Marvel thinking? Now the entire Marvel movie universe (avengers related) is based on his blockbuster of a film.

    Monks had a quest glove item that was either very late Vanilla, or the beginning of Kunark. When it was first introduced, it had an instant-click Complete Heal spell. The issue is that it wasn't charged. You had unlimited instant click CH. 2-3 monks on my server completed the quest by...

    What Made EQ Great? Tell your stories to a filthy casual

    Cracked staff was only about a gold. Back then, 1 plat was a LOT. And rusted weapons only sold for like 60 silver. It wasn't until you hit the Dervish Cutthroats in North Ro who dropped Bronze weapons that the value went up to a plat. I remember at level 3 FINALLY raising enough money...

    Breaking Bad

    The way I looked at the beginning of this season is that suddenly EVERYONE knows that Walt = Heisenberg. The kids skate boarding in his pool are just to feel tough for hanging out in a drug king pin's yard. So chances are there was a huge DEA raid on his house and Walt wasn't there or somehow...

    Movies That Would Be Made, If You Could Make It Happen

    I would love to see Spider Man's Maximum Carnage collection made. It'll never happen though. WAY too many characters to introduce and give backstories on. The books were awesome though. Another neat one would be Batman: Hush. Yeah, the biggest draw to this series was Jim Lee's artwork...

    We finished off our week-long trip today by heading to Fernbank Natural History Museum. Our daughter had a lot of fun there, so we stayed for 3-4 hours to keep her entertained. After that, we went to Kevin Rathbun Steak for dinner. It was incredible. No wonder it was voted #5 in the...

    Back in Vanilla EQ, there was EQLizer. It was kind of like the MMO-Champion of yesteryear. They would post new items that were recently found, but a lot of the posters would not report WHERE they discovered the item. It was all a big mystery. It kept them being able to farm an item...

    Also, the players HAD to be able to play to some degree, or they would quit. The worst players in EQ are still better than a huge portion of WoW's player base. I remember when WoW first started. You could see as easy as night and day, who came from EQ and who just started because it was a new...
