I picked Lethal Weapon. It was a tough choice as I love Eddie Murphy's 80's stuff, but the combo of Gibson and Glover is just too hard to overcome.
not trying to be a hater but why is he any different than the other hundreds of people who spend time making mods. I know he did it on a bigger scale but I seen game developers who actually used other people mod idea's and use it in their games because it was a unique idea. I don't see them getting articles and landing jobs with Bethseda. Again not trying to be a hater just curious

I think you answered your own question. The scale of it. It's one thing to make a mod that's pretty cool but on a small scale. It's entirely different to make one so expansive, have voice acting, the whole thing basically. Not saying this necessarily warrants articles about him (and he didn't get a job with Bethesda because of it, they're just aware of him). However I would say this kid is very talented in not only his modding work, but the obvious promotion of said work. That's why he's getting articles about him.
If I was theoretically buying everything I wanted it would probably get over $1000. As it stands right now my wallet is in a coma already and I will probably only pick up GTA V.
And I'm jealous of Diablo there... I wish $710 was a few days work for me. :(
No mastery here. I would say I'm above average as a whole, but haven't mastered any genre. I tend to do my best at action games, I'd guess.
Pretty sure it won't. It might make mobile developers step their game up a bit, but the experiences on a console versus some mobile platform are worlds different. They also appeal to entirely different audiences. I would say most of your mobile gamers aren't the same type of person who would necessarily sit in front of a console and play a game.
If it is extremely easy to become an assistant manager, why isnt everyone at walmart an assistant manager?

Well obviously there's only limited positions available. But I've seen some pretty... poorly qualified people make it through. I will say it is often a lot of long hours and more of a pain than it is potentially worth. But I mostly commented about that because people seem to think there is no career in Walmart when there can potentially be one if you so desire. And by extremely easy I guess I meant you don't need a college degree or a lot of work experience or anything like that whereas a lot of other places, you would. God, I sound like some Walmart apologist, even though I'm pretty far from it. I just try to give an honest view of the company.
I also wanted to touch on your comment in another post about the "oudated view of the world" or something along those lines. I will say that is absolutely true that a lot of people have that view. Especially older people who have done well through hard work. They think a lot of younger people these days are lazy and aren't working hard, when these days it doesn't just take hard work to make it. Last time I was in the hospital I was talking to this nurse dude and he was talking about how he works two hospitals to make ends meet. Then he was talking about his dad who was able to drop out of school, get some menial, entry-level job and was able to buy himself a house, car, raise his family, etc. Wasn't living the high life, but lived comfortably. That's practically unheard of today and that's something a lot of people, especially older people, seem to forget.
[QUOTE="isv666"]I'm with you there isv666. I try to game on everything too. I still have my Saturn, t-16, Genesis, etc.. I try not to limit myself. Except for handhelds. Not really a big handheld gamer.It really depends on how much you enjoy gaming. I prefer to play on anything that I can, whether it's my PC, 360 or even my ol' NES. But if your 360 is collecting dust and you have no deisre to play it or any console exclusives, then by all means, sell it. Not sure how much you'd get for it, though. If your budget only allows you to have one or the other, then I'd probably lean towards PC. You get a lot of good games on PC, great prices, a wonderful indie market, etc.
As far as desktop vs. laptop. I go desktop all the way when it comes to gaming. You can drop a few hundred dollars and get a pretty decent system. Laptops are great for portability, but doller to performance ratio is horrible compared to desktop, they're also a lot more difficult and generally more expensive to upgrade.

Saturn and T-16, two systems I never got my hands on that I want for my collection. Even have a few Saturn games ready to go! I'm not huge on handhelds (and especially not mobile gaming), but my wife and I did get a 3DS earlier in the year. I'm not gonna lie, I'm digging it more than I thought I would.
Kind of mixed. On the one hand I would recommend it to anyone since it's overall a pretty fantastic game. On the other hand, I hated the ending to the point where it kind of killed off a lot of the enjoyment I had of the game.
I rarely purchase fighting games because I'm horrible at them. Last one I picked up was Mortal Kombat, which I enjoyed a lot. I still sucked at it. And Christ, if I go online that's just embarassing.
When I was younger I used to love fighting games and seemed to be a fair amount better at them. Probably in my top ten of gaming moments was when I was pretty good at Mortal Kombat II and would get an audience at the arcade. That always felt good.
