  1. shit id be interested in that too....i never thought ps3 would be much for those sort of city-sim type games though?

     

    Skyrim and the Fallout games have MASSIVE explorable worlds, and the new DLC for Skyrim lets you build your own house.

     

    Skyrim is such a great game. I find myself playing it for about 20 hours over a weekend completely obsessed, then not touching it for weeks only to pick it up again and fall in love all over.

  2. American Hustle-5/10

     

    What an overrated mess. Constant soundtrack montages that were completely unnecessary, the story was so forced and over-the-top it became stupid only about 15min. into the film, and not in a ha-ha-funny way either. Its like Russell just got everyone from Silver Linings Playbook back together to fuck around with Baz Luhrmann as the cinematographer.

     

    The only saving grace for this movie was Jennifer Lawrence; only time I really laughed in the entire movie. Everything else was either retarded or uninteresting. Even Louis C.K. was disappointing (though its definitely not his fault).

  3. Bit it and downloaded Europa Universalis IV from the steam sale....Im really hoping my graphics card will support it....canyourunit.com tells me i failed the minimum testing, but I ran Crusader Kings II just fine, and as far as I can tell they use the same engine.

     

     

    Man Im so pumped, the EU series is probably my favorite game series of all time.

  4. yeah i am excite about wasteland 2 as well (HUGE NV and FO3 fanboy), but no way im fucking paying 60 bucks for any video game.

     

    I unfortunately bought FO and FO2 from GOG.com a while back....Ive only gotten into Fallout thus far, and I like the gameplay for the most part, but it pisses me off that there isnt a better save system. Make absolutely sure that you save at every conceivable circumstance in one slot, and a second slot for when you know you are in a good situation.

  5. I've been on a kick of glider videos lately but it's backfiring from an IDM/WATMM perspective. There is a device that translates altitude into an audio signal that permits instrument flying instead of relying on your eyes. It sounds like the "drunk" lead synth lines that are popular in current brostep, house, Pitbull, etc. Anyway, it's already an unavoidable lol that the navigation stick is so close to the pilot's dick. I now imagine a Richard Devine-style performance of a "cock-controlled" modular setup. I'm not currently oriented to reality as I've been in a dark basement studying for 3 days. This may or may not be funny

    thats absolutely gorgeous!! thanks for posting!!

  6. half the time I think smart means brilliant and good times.

     

     

    the other half I just imagine myself pontificating about minutiae in my mind, whereas my corporeal body is submerged in my own filth, while people actually contributing to society walk by in disgust.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    (but thanks for the compliment) :biggrin:

  7. I don't know about smetty, but I love doing this kind of work. If I could get paid to do it I would be over the moon.

     

     

    I think we are in agreement here, but the trick is to actually stop daydreaming and surmising about how brilliant the paper is going to be and suck it up and WRITE the damn thing already.

     

    At least, that's my problem.

     

     

    Luckily one of my term papers is on deconstructing a historical manuscript, and I think in all the insanity of trying to "figure" this book out, Ive cracked the puzzle. Currently preparing a presentation that will either make me look fantastic, or like a crack-addled madman. I am, at this point, comfortable with either.

    holy shit, crusader kings 2 new dlc got a judaism addition and the ability to rebuild the temple and create greater israel, here i come motherfuckers !!1

    ok, being a jew in 9th century isn't easy, pretty much everyone gangs up on my poor khazaria with holy wars in the first months of the game. i've tried about 15 times already and there's just no way of deflecting all of those attacks as far as i can see.

     

    playing as a jewish duke under cumanian king is much more interesting, obviously the king and all other tengri vassals hate you but there a lot of opportunities for conquering those vassals, i've managed to gradually conquer half of cumania and was saving cash for mercenaries for the final independence war and subsequent holy wars but the gavlkind succession fucked up everything again and i got obliterated and all my titles revoked.

     

    i saw some youtube videos were people are playing much more aggressively and faster than me with that jewish duke, just going full mongolian on everyone in matter of years and completely ignoring micro play, but find it kinda unjewy. i hope it's not the only way towards success.

     

     

    this is what ive never understood about CKII.....i can become a quick badass in Europa Universalis but all of those same tactics seem to fail horribly with CKII's game engine....I always end up creating a gigantic empire (Britannia, Hispania, and Africa), but get fucked over by internal disputes before I can seriously challenge anything or anyone else....(I always wanted to fuck up the Holy Roman Empire)

     

    any tips?
