MS did it before with Forza 5 too, that was a whole weekend that I think got extended too. Seems like MS are dedicated to repeating the free experience.

Thomas Was Alone is a truly excellent game and people should play it

are they adding anything to the bone version? it's already been out in most other formats (PC, ps3, vita, I think nintendo) for a good few years now.

A Russian man died after guzzling a bottle of Viagra to keep him going for a 12-hour orgy with two female pals.

The women had bet mechanic Sergey Tuganov $4,300 that he wouldn’t be able to follow through with the half-day sex marathon.

But minutes after winning the bet, the 28-year-old died of a heart attack, Moscow police said.

“We called emergency services but it was too late, there was nothing they could do,” said one of the female participants who identified herself only as Alina.

That's life. One minute you're about to engage in a 12 hour orgy, the next minute you're dead.

gently caress yes it was. The problem with MAG was that it needed teamwork. People suck rear end at teamwork and while like babies when they can't carry a team with their leet skills because instead they have to work with others. Teamwork was OP in that game.

At this rate the next generation of consoles is just going to be giant harddrives where you pre-load the next generations games.

Edit: Unless you're on a Xbone2, then you'll be pre-loading castle crashers 360 or some poo poo.

Technically it was Windows Live, so even if it was real not all of the accounts would be Xbox accounts.



Edit: Oh boy, Microsoft is sending out "Look what you accomplished in Year One" emails. Here's mine!

56 hours on Xbox Live, which is in the top 75%. Or in normal English, just a bit more than the bottom 4th. This presumably includes the 360 too.
84 achievements unlocked, which is top 50%. 0 of the top 4 rarest achievements. 1 of the top 4 most common. I played 4% of their "awesome games"

Got my email today. Interested to see what I get tomorrow (not dick). Although it says I've only been a member since 2006 (lie - more like 2004) and have only 61 hours of total Live time logged. There is zero chance that is even remotely correct.

I might have remembered poo poo wrong because I'm not a loving console warrior but isn't the PS4 supposed to use only half of its available RAM right now while the rest are still reserved for upgrades? While the xbone is already going full throttle when they had to sacrifice the reserved power for the kinect?

PS4 has 8 gb of fast ram Xbone has 8 gb of slow lap top ram with 32 mb of fast 2005 digital camera ram.

games that in the future require larger than 32 mb buffer for graphics will need to make compromises to work around that limit. if sony went out of business and sold the infamous ip xbox couldn't run it as is because it has an super high buffer.


these are the things i've heard on the subject and i repost them now without any real knowledge or ability to criticize them on my own.

Add to that a fanbase that is currently quire angry because the 343 team will have the nerve to take Thanksgiving off to see their families and any patch to the patch is going to be delayed into December. And yes they did use the hitler bunker video subtitles to express this.
