Well, I'm sitting here watching NFL network (I'm a huge !@#$% football junkie), and the Green Bay Packers are in a very tough situation now. Previous quarterback, Brett Favre (Who is also on the cover of Madden 09) has faxed a reinstatement letter, and it has been received by NFL head commissioner.

This leaves a difficult choice up to the Packers, who have repeatedly said that the team would become Aaron Rodgers' team, who has been the backup QB since coming into the NFL. Now with Favre back, it leaves a question. With him being worth $12.1 million, will they really spend that much to keep a guy on a bench, or will they trade him to another team?

You have to feel bad for Rodgers either way, as now he has to worry if he will even be first string this year. If he is, chances are Green Bay will for the first time ever, have to play against Favre in a different teams jersey.

Feedback / Sage for Spam?
« on: February 10, 2008, 08:34:46 pm »
Spam does get ..spammy, of course. But is there any chance of us getting a sage function for that forum so that we can kill off the "really just no purpose of having this post except to say LOL SPAM HERES SMILIES FOR HOURS ON END OF SCROLLING FUUUUUUCK"? I dont mind the wall of text or completely pointless arguements, but god damn those smilies are annoying to watch for an hour.

Other Discussion / Apple Buy's IHOP

Quote
In its ongoing efforts to capitalize off of every aspect of human existence, Apple Inc. finalized its purchase of the popular pancake restaurant chain International House of Pancakes, or IHOP, last Friday.

“The idea is to appeal to the younger, hipper pancake eating generation,” said Apple CEO Steve Jobs. “We also wanted to create a place where our loyal customers feel right at home. And let’s face it, there’s no place more comforting for a hardcore computer geek than in the cozy quarters of an all-night diner.”

The new ownership will see many changes for the 49-year-old pancake house. Apple plans to wash away the familiar sleazy ambience staffed with crotchety old women and illegal immigrants with that of a more user-friendly atmosphere. In fact, virtually all of the restaurant’s main functions will be executed by machines. Dining will be as easy as a mouse click, utilizing touch screen interfaces for everything from ordering your meal to paying your tab. And if for some unforeseen reason the system crashes, you can simply send an error email to the general manager and expect a snappy response in no less than a week’s time.

Halo: Combat Evolved was a launch title for Microsoft's XBox, and was a surprise hit. While praised for its multiplayer, many people seem to see it as over-rated. Halo was not the first game to use dual stick's for aiming and moving, but was certainly the first game to master it. The sensitivity controls let everybody have it just as they liked; not to mention the placement of the controls just feels natural. The gameplay itself was decent; the HUD was pretty generic, and was badly placed IMO.

The health bar always seemed to be in a bad place to me, but maybe thats just me. The campaign itself, while having a good story, was lacking. It never told you to go, and you would randomly walk halfway around Halo trying to figure out where to go. The games also didn't explain how Master Chief became a Spartan, which would later be filled in during the books. The lack of online in Halo 1 dissapointed many because of the multiplayer function, but Live had not been launched yet.
People eventually hacked the game to allow online, but until then, people just had to have mass amounts of people at their house. In many cases, people say the multiplayer was the best part of Halo; an opinion I agree with. The multiplayer is fun not because you're 'owning noobs' or 'shooting the !@#$% out of things', but because of the challenge. It was fun because instead of fighting another damned computer, you're fighting someone with a brain (well, usually). Computers will always have the same faults in a game, but a human can learn your strategy. It makes you have to adapt to the situation. You cant really have to adapt that quickly in anything less then Man Vs. Wild style, and I don't feel like going Bear Grylls Right now.

Halo 2 fixed alot of the problems of Halo 1; mostly the HUD.

As you can see, they fixed alot of problems with the grenades, and the placement of the health bar. However, not everything was fixed. Like Halo 1, the campaign still was boring. The story was good, but the wandering around Earth? No thanks. Now with online multiplayer, the game became a huge phenomenon for online gamers. With the ranking system it made it easy to improve, and to still have fun. Multiplayer still isn't perfect, but its quite fun.

So, the overall question is, is Halo over-rated? Of course it is, to a point. Mostly because alot of Microsoft fans like Halo, and try to spread it because they think its fun. This makes the owners of other systems angry because they see it as "My games better then yours", but thats when we say STFUAJPG. M I RITE? Overall; Halo's not overrated by the fans. Halo's overrated by the haters. Think i'm wrong? Wait for the comments for this to come in.

From This
To This

For a conversion so great, why does this !@#$% me off? Let's find out.
So, yeah, this is pretty much making the old game prettier. 10/10 there. They aced that. Sound? 10/10. Still awesome. So what the hell is wrong with this? Controls. That's it.
The controls just feel really jerky; the timing from the buttons is delayed. The whole sense of realism is cool and all but cmon. This is ridiculous. I died 4 times trying to do a !@#$% jump up to the next level. what. the !@#$%. The controls feel oddly place. Jump is A, roll is B, and grab a ledge is.. Right Trigger? what? why not make JUMP there? makes more sense.
you might have to jump then roll, but because of the setup here the timings horribly hard to master. Other then controls, this game is kickass. Definitely worth the 800 MS Points. Once you get past the controls theres alot of fun to be had here.

Overall: 8.5/10

Entertainment / UK petitioning Prime Minister over Manhunt 2
« on: July 01, 2007, 10:20:13 pm »
Quote
Slowly but surely, the wheels of dissent are beginning to turn in the UK. Earlier in the week, ELSPA's former leader let rip a volley of disapproval at the BBFC for its unfair and potentially industry-damaging treatment of Manhunt 2. Now the good citizens of the misty island of castles and unicorns are following suit, with a petition set up on the Prime Minister's official site calling for a revocation of the ban and the implementation of an 18 rating instead. You know, like sane, mature people would have done in the first place.

While internet petitions usually aren't worth the paper they're not written on, the fact that this one is hosted on an official government site makes it worth a go, as does the fact that Gordon Brown has only just moved into office. After years of bitter domestic wrangling and tearful, crockery-smashing fights with Tony Blair, he's finally thrown the !@#$% out, and is now kicking back with a box of chocolates and I Will Survive on repeat, and making a big deal out of his vow that things are going to be different from now on.

While ol' rubbery face's claims of a more dialectic approach with the people of the UK obviously raise the cynicisometer needle just a tad, right now the guy's aiming to impress as the antithesis of President Blair, and so he has to be seen to be listening. To that end, now is the time to throw your Christmas list at him while he's suffering from the vulnerability inflicted by his own PR. UK residents have got until August the 25th to sign up, but should get to it right now.

And most importantly, don't just leave the work to the petition. These things often fail because they're seen as a single complaint despite the vast number of signatures on them, so follow up your e-signature with a real, paper and pen letter. A petition may get noticed, but a crammed letterbox full of tangible, individual letters to accompany said petition is going to be impossible to ignore, and doubly so if you send the same letter to your local MP as well. This is one situation in which spam is a good thing, so lets get typing and harrassing.

Entertainment / 360
« on: June 14, 2007, 08:59:18 am »
Alright. I'm currently up in the air on this one. I really want an XBox or XBox 360; the problem is, I don't know which to get. I hear theres problems with the 360, where it'll randomly die, and that would severely !@#$% me off. Here are the games I really want:
Halo (XBox)
Halo 2 (XBox)
Dead Rising (360)
Fable (XBox)
Halo 3 (360)
Fable 2 (360)
Grand Theft Auto IV (360)

I'm thinking the 360 because then i could play ALL of those, instead of just some, but i dunno. How stable are the 360's?

6th. Cool-ish. Congrats.
7th. Too bad halo sucks :(
8th. I love you. <3 RE4.

I need serious. !@#$% help. with my guitar. When I got it about.. christmas, it worked fine. Now, I let it sit for around a month; and then i retuned it. Ever since, my strings (Which I replaced just last week) have always been !@#$% up. Heres what happens; The guitar itself plays fine; in a sense. But, some of the frets.. arent.. they're like.. just not fretting. For example, if i hit any fret under 5 on my B string, it sounds really messed up, and unless i press so hard that the damn string feels like its pushing through my finger, it doesnt even make a sound. and when it does, it sounds like somethings distorting it. But about the five fret, it sounds fine, works perfect. Now, my high e did the same thing, but to 6. It just blew up. like. my string. !@#$% exploded. wasnt even playing. just popped. anyways; back to the problem.  it seems the lower the string, the more frets i can use; and im just getting really sick of not being able to play songs i know anymore because of this. if anyone could tell me how to fix it, or what causes it, i'd be very thankful.

Entertainment / Resident Evil 4
« on: May 14, 2007, 04:15:17 am »
Well, I just bought RE4 today. I must say, I'm quite impressed. I'm fighting the giant ogre thing currently. The irony is, I hate shooters, and I love this game. I also hate scary movies, yet I love some, and I love this game. Its weird. Anyways, I got it used at gamestop and they gave me a DVD case! wtf! I had an old GCN case, so I used it. They also gave me one of those default covers with the stupid cartoons on em. So, I spent two hours printing this out to near perfect size.




CPP told me a while back that a full page = different amount of pixels for printers. So I found mine, and after trial and error came up with these resolutions. The front and back are 447x577; the siding being 87(I think?)x577. I printed em, and keep em in place with the used sticker; which also covers up the chop off of the side i did to make the front cover fit (it wasnt until after that i tried 447.)
The side was a pain in the ass though. No one had a scan of it. I finally just resized the logo via photoshop and printed it. Ironically, I forgot about the gamecube symbol and was like "why doesnt this look right?" then looked at other cases. I didnt wanna reprint it, and the crappy cover from before had the gamecube symbol. So I cut it off and glued it on :D I think i did okay. <3
