That's actually not terrible by charity standards. That's enough to get them a B+ on AIP/CharityWatch (used to be an A), and 3 out of 4 stars on Charity Navigator. Hell, most charities don't even officially list their CEO and salary, nor the process by which salaries are determined; PCF does both. They aren't a perfect charity, but they're not likely to waste donations either.

The Wavebird was the best. I still have a few even though I'll probably never use them again. Still kick rear end though.

Recently hooked up my Gamecube to my HDTV gaming setup since the Wii U doesn't play Gamecube games and I have those component cables that are apparently stupid expensive on eBay that I bought way back in the day. Fun times. And I can play GBA games with the Game Boy Player. Living the life.

Fergus Mac Roich posted:It's too small imo they're good for a few things. its a lot easier to hit a direction exactly and stick to it in the hex. it is much harder to circle though. i like the gc controller but i hate the c stick. I also don't like the digital click when you fully squeeze the analog shoulder triggers. I'd rather there be more shoulder buttons but that's probably just personal preference. the idea of the gc controller as the best ever seems like it came out of nowhere last year. were people talking about it previously and i just missed it?

Those Hori Battle Pads that are basically Classic Controller Pros with a Gamecube controller design are pretty good. It replaced the analog triggers with the four top button triggers of the Classic Controller and has some weird turbo feature I haven't tried yet, but otherwise it feels great. And since it's a Classic Controller that has to plug into the Wii Remote, you can play Wii games and N64 VC games in Wii mode with it and it rules.

GameCube controller is the third best controller. The hori updated version of the GameCube is the second best even if it lacks analog triggers. The Wii U pro controller is the best. This also makes the Wii U literally the best console.

Also the Wii U pro controller is okay at best. It's basically a worse arranged 360 controller which was overrated as gently caress to begin with.

The 360 controller was a godsend for the PC because the stars aligned and Microsoft actually succeeded in standardizing PC controller support for almost everything release in the past decade. Now if only they could figure out where to store saves so I don't have a Documents folder full of folders from games I installed years ago.

Generally I don't like the buttons being under the stick. It also has rounded sticks like everyone always bitched about on the ds3. axelblaze fucked around with this message at 04:34 on Jan 5, 2015 |

So I'm playing Far Cry 3, and in addition to the "white man sees the heart of darkness from the noble savages and the big titty temple queen" or whatever the gently caress, apparently there's also a Pulp Fiction style exploitation homorape scene gently caress You Ubisoft

Far Cry 3's gameplay was okay for a few hours, and then you liberate your 8th or 9th base and realize that this is pretty much gonna be it without much variation.
