[WhipSmartBanky]

First

[Gothic Walrus]

I'm looking forward to this movie. It looks like it's got a lot of potential...I just hope it's as funny as the idea could be.

[senorwoohoo]

You can do it, Grammarking.

Chant it with me now.

"MIND YOUR MARGINS!"

I can't do it!

Fucking topic just isn't coming together in my head.

[becuzimbrown]

Mos Def!

[Liquid 2]

Can't wait.

[CaseyRyback]

I will be seeing this in the theaters, but I really hope the DVD is packed to the brim with extra movie reenactments.

[zewone]

Not think so.

[Liquid 2]

Not think so.

What?

[Mojimbo]

This OTT is surprisingly non-offensive(ley bad). Thumbs up.

We were supposed to get this and City of Men(~City of God side-sequel) on 1/25 but there's no signs of either any time soon. :cry:

[JolietJake]

I wanna see that just for the ghostbusters re-enactment.:lol:

[zewone]

What?

Pull up to ya spot on low
Shine brighter than all o' them cats they got on glow
Layin the cut like they not gon' know
Cuz if I gotta make a move dawg they not gonna know
This door marked private this is not fo' sho'
It's Mos Def what you call real fo' sho'
Is they what you call gangsta, hell no
They get a lil' pitch and go snitch to the po'
They all talk fast and they all think slow
I'm Mos Definite, not think so
Flood ya city with the black ink flow
And my crew ain't scared to let them things go
So, stop with the nonsense, like he conscious
I'm just alright dawg, I'm doin' great dawg
I don't play games so I don't playa hate y'all
Get it straight or get the fuck up out my face dawg
I'm like the second plane that made the tower's face off
That shit that let you know it's really not a game dawg
Your grind and my grindin is same dawg
I'm the catalogue, you the same song
So cool and ol' school like A4?
The one ya lil mami windin' up on ways for
The name that real $$$$az got they hands raised for
Me and Mini got ya block yellow taped off

[CaseyRyback]

The King of Kong DVD had an extended trailer for it, and the Ghostbusters shit was so money.

[zewone]

Robot karate.

I thought you were responding to Casey, in which case your post would have been borderline retarded. :lol:

City of god has a sequal?...But......I love that movie!

[senorwoohoo]

I was focusing on the wrong part of the fucking meeting.

Shoot me now!

[zewone]

We were supposed to get this and City of Men(~City of God side-sequel) on 1/25 but there's no signs of either any time soon. :cry:

City of Men is the mini-series I thought?

I never watched it because it's not supposed to be very similar to CoG.

[tiredfornow]

City of God sucked.

[Mojimbo]

That's what I thought too(I've seen the DVD at Best Buy) but they made a movie aside from that too.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0870090/

I still find it fairly confusing and my expectations aren't too high for either the TV show or this movie.

[zewone]

You're probably not kidding, so I have to say you stink.

[tiredfornow]

I don't even know what City of God is.

http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee170/hookedoncrack/untitled-11.jpgJFD.

[zewone]

Oh, well then watch it.

It's fan-fucking-tastic.

[Gothic Walrus]

I don't even know what City of God is.

http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee170/hookedoncrack/untitled-11.jpgJFD.

I don't either. You're not alone. :grouphug:

That's not me.

[Mojimbo]

It's been so long since I watched it. I saw it in theaters when I was in like 11th/12th grade so it's been a good ~4 years.

I do remember that Knockout Ned was that $$$$y. He was also the black guy that played Bowie songs on his acoustic guitar in The Life Aquatic.

That's not me.

Are you sure?

[JimmieMac]

What's good? Gears?

[JohnnyFoxDarko]

Are you sure?
That was me.

[Moxio]

Back.

[Gothic Walrus]

Urgh. It's probably time to go and enter a self-enforced radio silence - I've got a take-home exam that's worth 15% of my course grade tomorrow, and I either need to sleep or to finish studying.

See you in a day or two, OTT - the thing's due in on Friday, so hopefully I'll pop back in by then.

[zewone]

Oh shit!

I didn't know Army of Two was going to have online multiplayer.

Is it 2v2?

:drool:Why do you :drool: over cheezemints?

[Mojimbo]

Why would you trade your car for a $$$$$$ Morrissey acetate?

(They give you an idea of how the game is gonna play out.)

[zewone]

Because they are fun to get.

[JimmieMac]

Because they're equal over single and co-op play and they're like Gears with the pop culture references as titles. Drool face indeed.

[dallow]

Mojimbo made the most sense. Still not drool worthy as previews of games tell you more.

(and i don't care about acetates, metal stompers are where it's at)

[Moxio]

Godammit, why am I having so much trouble resisting LO?

[DT778]

I got the red ring of death. Now I gotta find a way to fix it myself.

[Liquid 2]

Cracked Audio Surf Beta, for whoever wants it. Install and follow the instructions.
Audio Surf Board MUST be running before you run Audio Surf.

edit: I s'pose that $$$$y budge is in his jammies in bed right not.

[JimmieMac]

Or you could call MS and have them send you a box and fix it for free.

[Moxio]

Oh yeah, Liquid, forgot to tell you that Fake got into UW.

Only 7 more to go. :lol:

[Liquid 2]

Oh yeah, Liquid, forgot to tell you that Fake got into UW.

Wisconsin? Worchester?

Congrats, either way.

8 colleges though? Crazy.

[DT778]

Can't, I have modded firmware.

[Moxio]

Wisconsin? Worchester?

Congrats, either way.

Washington.

He applied to 8. UW was his safety.

*goes back to looking for LO videos*

[Mojimbo]

:roll:

Can't wait to get some trophies up ins.

Previews suck, most of the time they don't say shit and only give you vague impressions of the gameplay. I think the last preview I saw of Army of Two was when the 1up Show covered it circa E3.

Buy a new sticker off ebay and send it on its way. Even without the sticker there's a good chance they won't notice because of the huge volume their intake.

[JimmieMac]

A friend of ours also had the modded firmware and they didn't even check the stickers. It's worth a shot because it's free. It's not like they're gonna try and bill you.

Call up, say it red rings, error code 74, box on it's way.

[Moxio]

Could you get in trouble if they catch it?

[Liquid 2]

Washington.

He applied to 8. UW was his safety.

*goes back to looking for LO videos*

Oh, duh.

[crystalklear64]

Sitting just outside the rank 5 "dungeon". After I finish this bowl of food, I get to hear the sweet computer voice tell me the boss name. Man I love that :)

[DT778]

I also made a hole on the side so I can easily stick in a sata cable in there when I needed.

[Mojimbo]

...the fuck are they gonna do? Worst case scenario they send you back the same box that you sent them.

Will this work if i already downloaded the original Beta?

Would i need to remove the one i have on my Comp or would it work with the one i already have?

[Liquid 2]

Will this work if i already downloaded the original Beta?

Would i need to remove the one i have on my Comp or would it work with the one i already have?

No clue. Just try it out.

[JimmieMac]

Jimbo, Free game time. Now.

Now point and laugh at Kuga for not downloading it when it was free.

In French.

[Mojimbo]

N/M. Game over.

I do have it but I've never played it before Jimmie. I can do Gears or CoD though.

[joe2187]

No clue. Just try it out.

Just Downloaded it and well...I got an error message, archive is unknown format or is Damaged.

:cry:

[JimmieMac]

I never played it either plus how hard can it be to beat Music and The Man.?

[Moxio]

Turning in early tonight.

Z.

[crystalklear64]

Ugh, fucking gyp on rank 5.

[zewone]

Yes, The Darjeeling Limited on DVD.

Finally.

[Liquid 2]

Yes, The Darjeeling Limited on DVD.

Finally.

Excellent. When?

[zewone]

On the internets now.

[crystalklear64]

Blllaaaaaarrg! My spleen.

[Soodmeg]

Man I really have to go see someone about my insomnia. I mean seriously?

In 4 hours I have to drive to a fucking mountain to shoot snowboarding championships.

I really have no urge what so ever to sleep even when I know that it will be hell tomorrow. 13 hours of standing outside on top of a mountain.

Ah well...thats what mountain dew is for I guess.......


(didnt even realize I used a really crappy pun)

[SneakyPenguin]

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. is surprisingly fun.

[hiccupleftovers]

On the internets now.


I just saw that. shh...where'd you see it?

[zewone]

This is how I keep up with movies that have leaked online:

http://www.movierls.com/

I'm grabbin' it from Newsgroups now, but I also saw it on torrentz.com.

[CrimGhost]

Blllaaaaaarrg! My spleen.

You've been a bad boy Sir Henry.

[FriskyTanuki]

So if somebody quit during a four player game of Uno online, it doesn't count towards the achievement for 10 4-player wins over Live? Fuck.

[dcfox]

Sucks. Work isn't cancelled today.

[corrosivefrost]

I think I'm calling in sick. I'm pretty dead after clearing the driveway... fucking giant slushie or some shit.

[GuyWithGun]

Hooray for waking up and not being able to get back to sleep! :-|

[GuyWithGun]

I think I'm calling in sick. I'm pretty dead after clearing the driveway... fucking giant slushie or some shit.
Shit, you did all the grunt work already, you might as well go in. Otherwise you spent all morning clearing your driveway and wearing yourself out for absolutely no reason.

[corrosivefrost]

Shit, you did all the grunt work already, you might as well go in. Otherwise you spent all morning clearing your driveway and wearing yourself out for absolutely no reason.

Chika begs to differ.

Eh, I'll probably just take a (more than usual) relaxed approach of working from home today anyhow.

[GuyWithGun]

Chika begs to differ.

Eh, I'll probably just take a (more than usual) relaxed approach of working from home today anyhow.
Haha, is she going to work today?

[corrosivefrost]

Haha, is she going to work today?

Already on her way.

She called to say how much the roads suck too and advised me to stay home, one way or another.

[GuyWithGun]

Already on her way.

She called to say how much the roads suck too and advised me to stay home, one way or another.
Awww, that's sweet of her. I guess at least one of you has to bring home the bacon. Time to get out those bon-bons and prepare for Oprah. ;)

[senorwoohoo]

Fuckin' tired.

[wubb]

Morning OTT

[corrosivefrost]

Gah.

Fuck Mile High Club, man.

[senorwoohoo]

I just want to finish this article so I can go back to bed ... or start my day. I haven't decided yet.

[Number83]

Morning, OTT.

Man, that was one of the worst commutes in history. Now I know what a Skittle, droped in a 7-11 Slurpee feels like.

I should have stayed home.

And if you live in Western PA, and are expecting a package from Fed Ex, you package may be delayed...I passed a double wide on the opposite side of the turnpike that was jack knifed and it's contents were spilled all over the road. Hope you opted for insurance.

[wubb]

Gah.

Fuck Mile High Club, man.

That last Cars cheesemint was rough too but I stuck it out and got my 1000 / 1000 :razz:

[wubb]

Ha, I just upped the thread rating from 1 Cheapy head to 3 Cheapy heads. Take that TFN!

[terribledeli]

Finished up Conan last night with the 360 being repaired and all.

My shipment o' games may be delayed due to the wind today.

I wouldn't be too worried about sending in a modded 360 for repairs. With the sheer amount of them, there's absolutely no way for them to go through and check every single console that goes through. The five times (Twice for me, once for my younger brother, and twice for my older brother) I have had some contact with them, the console arrived and left the repair center on the same day.

[GuyWithGun]

Well, fuck me. I read that if you restart Assassin's Creed that it saves your achievements. I just restarted it, and guess what it didn't save...yeah. I really don't want to spend the next weeks getting all those fucking flags again. Damn, this game has been pissing me off recently.

[Maklershed]

<-- called in sick again. I think I've called in sick more this year already than I have in the past three years combined. And that's not an exaggeration.

[darthbudge]

Morning OTT.

[wubb]

Heard that Netflix is going Blu Ray only for new releases.

And damn I hope people finish adding their XBL tags to get on the leaderboard soon. You'd have to get 1000 GPs a day just to tread water.

What happened with the +100K dude? Was he shamed into removing his XBL tag or did Cheapy take him off the board?

[darthbudge]

I wish Children of Men was on Blu-Ray and not HD-DVD.

[Maklershed]

Fine by me. I like blu-ray more anyway. Plus it gives me an excuse to turn my PS3 on.

[Admiral Ackbar]

Muwhahahaah.... For some reason the firewall at my company isn't working today!

[terribledeli]

folks are now confirming recovering your gamertag and earning the PSU expansion achievements will actually unlock properly now. hooray.

[Maklershed]

Muwhahahaah.... For some reason the firewall at my company isn't working today!

I'm gonna steal your megahurtz!

[darthbudge]

Muwhahahaah.... For some reason the firewall at my company isn't working today!

Lets see, would you mind giving me some IP addresses?

[terribledeli]

I didn't realize they punted that guy from the leaderboard for cheating. Nice.

[wubb]

Yeah, browed through and from the Leaderboard thread it looks like Cheapy took him off. I didn't expect he'd want to get that down in the weeds with it. Good to see.

[tiredfornow]

Vomiting all morning.

This sucks... atleast I get to play Lost Odyssey all day. :D

[wubb]

The non paying bidder dispute from shitty eBay seller is STILL open on my account. I responded to it that I paid on jan 25 and it's been sitting there waiting for comment from the seller ever since.

[tiredfornow]

I hate you, you stupid penguin

[Maklershed]

I was alright with the penguin until he surpassed my gamerscore and is now just embarrassing me. :boxing:

Just put DMC4 and Lost Odyssey at the top of my Gamefly queue. They better not pull a Netflix on me and send me something from the bottom of my list.

[senorwoohoo]

Hmm, maybe I should just do GameFly and stop buying games.

[Maklershed]

Word. The games I tend to buy have insane deals shortly after ... I'm looking at you Bioshock (w free copy of The Darkness) and Call of Duty 4 ($39.99).

[wubb]

Played a random Team Slayer match yesterday and we got crushed 50 to 17 or something. My team just took off in random directions and the other guys were pretty good plus working together. Total slaughter.

When it was 40 - 10 or so one of my teammates said "Hey maybe we should work together." :lol:

[darthbudge]

Ugh. The AudioSurf Demo doesn't seem to be working in Vista.

[JohnnyFoxDarko]

I'm tired of waiting for that MCR.
I'm going to do another offer that'll give me a credit instantly.

[dallow]

I wish Children of Men was on Blu-Ray and not HD-DVD.It is on import.

[darthbudge]

It is on import.

That is cool, but really I just wanted to get it on Netflix and watch it again.

Also Physics sucks.

[wubb]

Did you nix getting a 360 dallow?

[Number83]

And damn I hope people finish adding their XBL tags to get on the leaderboard soon. You'd have to get 1000 GPs a day just to tread water.

I've been dropping 25 spots a day, despite picking up some cheesemints playing Conan. BTW, I think me and terribledeli might be the only two people here that are playing that game. I don't know why...It's pretty decent. I'm enjoying it. Bewbs are everywhere!

I might have to go rent Cars, Open Season and NFL Football 06 this weekend, just to crack the top 300!

[tiredfornow]

dallow was ordering a 360 weeks ago.

[munch]

Hmm, maybe I should just do GameFly and stop buying games.

Maybe you should sign up under me on the free 360 game site and get Gamefly that way 8-).


So, I'm in the UT library right now, and I think some people think this place is a hostel. People are laying around like a bunch of snakes. One guy is snoring so loud I can hear him half way across the room. And this one girl is smacking an apple. Why can bitches chew with their mouth closed?

[dallow]

Did you nix getting a 360 dallow?It's hard to want one anymore when I see all the 360 games I want to play on PC. (not all)

And when I think things like "I'd rather have a new center speaker than a 360".
The center speaker costs more to boot.

[lordwow]

Ruh Roh. EA just escalated my RB guitar replacement thing. It's been sitting on "Shipping Information Recieved" on UPS for 2 weeks now for 2-day air.

[shrike4242]

dallow was ordering a 360 weeks ago.He canceled the order and reallocated the money to something from IKEA.

I guess we're back to the Cole Train av, TFN?

[senorwoohoo]

Hmm, N*E*R*D is playing here on March 2.

To go or not to go...

[shrike4242]

Hmm, N*E*R*D is playing here on March 2.

To go or not to go...You'll go. This much is a given.

[senorwoohoo]

You'll go. This much is a given.

Eh, doesn't seem too likely since I would have to go by myself. Also, I'm not really a big enough fan to pay $22 to see them.

[terribledeli]

Conan was pretty decent. I enjoyed it up till the last boss fight, which wasn't as bad was I was making it out be last night around 10:00 PM.

I had checked out the reviews when I bought it and discover that most of the complaints were about the fact that he could use magic in the game. I realized this violates every Conan principle, but they strictly spell (pun intended) it out in the game that he doesn't want to use the magic but has to in order to defeat Graven

[wubb]

Conan doesn't trust magic!

[JohnnyFoxDarko]

fuck! I keep getting "Payment was declined. Please check your address and security code then try again." on offers. This sucks. :/

Fuck this, I'm gunna go play No More Heroes. :bomb::bomb:

[terribledeli]

Conan doesn't trust magic!

As he points out like four times over the course of the game. With the exception of Stone Prison, I don't think I really used any of the magic. I imagine THQ told Nilihistic "I don't care if everything ever written about Conan says he doesn't use magic. You're going to put in magic in there because Kratos uses magic"

[shrike4242]

Eh, doesn't seem too likely since I would have to go by myself. Also, I'm not really a big enough fan to pay $22 to see them.Well, in that case, I think it's a pass.

I had it pre-ordered and then shifted the pre-order when the demo was so meh.

[darthbudge]

Is Geometry Wars worth 4 bucks on Steam? I kinda want to get it but I am just not sure.

[wubb]

Nah I can look past that sort of thing if it makes the game fun but then OTOH what's the point of using a license if you are going to bastardize it?

Is Geometry Wars worth 4 bucks on Steam? I kinda want to get it but I am just not sure.

You can get it along with 4 or 5 other XBLA games and a month of XBL gold in XBLA unplugged.

[Number83]

So, if I thought the demo was mediocre, would that be a fair assessment of the game? I had it pre-ordered and then shifted the pre-order when the demo was so meh.

I thought the demo was mediocre too, but I am pleasantly surprised +1 at the actual game. It's so much better. The level they used for the demo was weak compared to the rest of the game (at least up to act 5, which is what I am on now).

I paid full price, and let it sit until recently. I can kick myself for that since it can be bought now at $39.99 new, I beleive. (But I did get a cool action figure). It seems like I'm going to be finished within a week (8-10 hours game time), so at $39.99 it's still might be a little pricey.

But I wouldn't hesitate at $29.99!

[darthbudge]

Yeah but I don't have a 360 at my house. I like playing games on my PC more anyway. Also isn't that XBLA unplugged like 15 or 20 dollars?

[lilboo]

Drew Carey is so ugly, ugh. My Price is Right.. :-(

[wubb]

Yeah but I don't have a 360 at my house. I like playing games on my PC more anyway. Also isn't that XBLA unplugged like 15 or 20 dollars?

It was $8 on Amazon for a while. If they've raised the price then I don't know where to get it cheap.

[darthbudge]

It was $8 on Amazon for a while. If they've raised the price then I don't know where to get it cheap.

Yeah I just looked it up, it is about 8 dollars on Amazon used. Still I would rather get it on my PC. But how was the game actually? Is it worth 4 dollars?

[wubb]

Well it was $8 new on Amazon (from Amazon.com) for a while. Used you probably wouldn't get the XBL 1 month card.

Anyway, I haven't been able to get into it, but none of the other games on the disc are anything special and it is considered to be one of hte better XBLA offerings. I think a few other OTTers have spent a lot more time with it than I.

[JolietJake]

Drew Carey is so ugly, ugh. My Price is Right.. :-(
The price is wrong, bitch.:lol:

[darthbudge]

I am trying to stick to my diet, but it is really hard because there are 4 bags of potato chips sitting in my kitchen.

Regular (Not really interested in these.)
Salt and Vinegar (Most delicious chips. Ever.)
Loaded Potato Skins (It was a new flavor, tastes pretty much like Cheddar, pretty good.)
Sweet and Spicy Teriyaki (These are pretty good too)

I paid full price, and let it sit until recently. I can kick myself for that since it can be bought now at $39.99 new, I beleive. (But I did get a cool action figure). It seems like I'm going to be finished within a week (8-10 hours game time), so at $39.99 it's still might be a little pricey.

But I wouldn't hesitate at $29.99!I might think about it when it gets to $30, though I might be able to find it used with the 25% off coupon.

If it's $34.99 used at EB, it would be $23.68 AC. Might be worth looking at for that price.

So for my RB replacement guitar request, I got the email saying my request had gone through, and I replied to the email with my UPS tracking # and request # so I'd have it in my email with it. Turns out I hit reply all, so it sent it back to EA, so they canceled my request. Brilliant.

Ouch.

[lordwow]

Ouch.

Even better, according to the player rep I got escalated to, it got canceled from sending it out to me, but didn't cancel the RMA request or the hold on my credit card. So basically, it would have gone through their system as me not returning the guitar in 30 days, even though they never sent it out.

How they can get so confused by the response is bewildering. In their queue thing, literally all it says is my RMA # and my UPS Tracking # (which is what I emailed), and they apparently freaked out over it.

[wubb]

Did this just happen or did this happen a while ago and is why you've been waiting so long?

I sent the request in on 2/2. I responded to the email that same afternoon, and my UPS tracking had been sitting on billing information recieved since then. I emailed them on Monday with "WTF is going on?" basically, yesterday I got escalated because the rep couldn't figure out why it hadn't shipped out, and today I got an email from a player rep guy explaining that my email response had cancelled/delayed my guitar getting shipped out, and he basically told me not to respond to any more emails.

Thanks...

Thanks...See, that's more than a little ridiculous, especially since just about every other system I receive emails from that is automated and I reply to, such as from an Out-Of-Office message, it just replies back that no messages are accepted. I can't imagine their system is so screwy that a response to an email from them fucks up the whole process. I'd call EA Corp and rip them a new one.

[shrike4242]

More or less in the range of 1500-1700 a month.If that's just for rent, you need to move. :shock: Even if it's everything figured in there, you're getting stiffed.

My last apartment was about half of that for rent, and after everything, was only about $1200/month. And I knew I was overpaying on the apartment, as it was a good location for the jobs I had in the time I had the apartment.

Is that 1500 split with a roommate? That wouldn't be terrible for nova. But I say live near where you work if it's cheaper and just drive into the city. It would be pretty cool to live downtown for a bit though.

[lordwow]

If you want to know how much about $1000 month (inc heat, hot water, and electric) gets you in downtown Boston (and by downtown I mean Back Bay, by the Pru, not real downtown, where there's almost no housing), here's my studio for the summer (that's not my stuff in it, pics are the girl who's subletting to us):

(and yes, it'd 1500-ish total, and that's for a small 2 bedroom, there's nicer 1 bedroom places that cost a lot more)

[lordwow]

I don't think I could live in a studio. I'd go nuts.

Long story short, gf and I are moving in there, for probably only 3 of the 4 months of the sublet (we'll have to eat the cost of August because we're prob moving in late July). But we both will be working 30-40 hours a week at the same part-time job, but opposite hours (its open 24 hours a day, and they generally don't let us work together, as there's only 2 supervisors on at a time). So about 60-80 hours a week only one of us will be in there. The rest of the time we'll be sleeping between shifts.

That being said, we're already trying to figure out what I need to ship back to my house (which my parents can bring, since I lived 45 minutes away), because our stuff is not all going to fit in there.

[Maklershed]

Ok, I take back all my kind words about Naruto: Rise of a Ninja. By the time you meet Jaryia you've done everything you're gonna do. It's just incessant fetch quests, which in itself wouldn't be so bad, but it keeps making you go back over the same ground to get to the same area so you can fight the same enemy. Too bad. The game had a lot of potential and started off good.

[lordwow]

Also, we both work shifts starting at 6 AM, and the studio is a 3 minute walk to work. So, that's a big plus.

[dallow]

Never mind, it's like $2K a month for 2 bedroom lofts and highrise apts.

Bit too much, even when split.

It's at least $1000 for one bedroom/living room "studios".

[karsh]

I know I pay a bit too much for my apartment (about 1300 a month), considering it's only an efficiency, but it's nice that I live literally three blocks from the White House and so insanely close to everything.

I'm a grad student, so most of my rent right now is coming from loans. My measly pay from being a TA goes towards stuff like Comcast and food, :lol:.

And yeah, it sucks ass as far as what I could be getting most other places for that money, especially if I was back up in Jersey, but I suppose that's the price I pay for wanting to actually live in a city. I figured it was something I'd want to do at least once in my life and I prolly wouldn't get a chance besides this time I'm in grad school down here in DC, so I had to. And I have to say, I've learned I absolutely LOVE living in a city. It's so nice to not have to drive anywhere and being able to get places by either walking or a short metro ride.

Too late. I sent it back to Gamefly. I couldnt take it anymore. The last 4 missions in a row were all the same. And all the social missions I have available are insanely difficult races out in the Forest of Death (which takes forever just to get out there).

This is the thing for us. We're paying $500/each a month for a small studio, but we live less than 5 minutes (walk) from:

They're not really that hard, just repititious, though it's not as far as the last area the social missions send you to. The last part of the Gaara fight's pretty cool though (you get to take control of the 9-tailed fox demon that Gamabunta transforms into).

I used to know all the correct answers to the Unicru honesty test. Years ago, I was the highest ranked hire at my local Albertsons with 97% positive. Until I took the test for a friend of mine and he was hired with 99%.

Task Handling

Customer Service

Employee Cooperation

Over all performance

And you're given a percentage based on your performance. When I did hiring, I was advised anything below 75% was a failure.

Just remember they're looking for the obvious answer. Folks always think there's some hidden meaning behind it. There isn't.

If it asks you the question about "Would inform the manager if your friend, a fellow employee, came to work stoned?" They aren't asking about your loyality to your buddies (which most people think), they are just flat out asking if you'd rat out a friend to the better of the company.

Questions like "Do you like people?" are easy, as if you say "Strongly Disagree" to a question about liking people in a RETAIL job.. clearly you won't get the job :lol:

But questions like
"Do you talk a lot?"

That can be taken 2 ways:
-The person talks way too much and is more focused on talking then doing their job
-The person is very friendly and personable, he/she will be good for a customer service job.

Shit like that! :wall:And there's no good way to answer those questions, no. You need to think about what would work "best" in that job situation, and try to go with that.

I think it depends on the exact job that you are applying for. If it is a warehouse worker, they don't want talkitive people that might get distracted. If you are selling stuff to people, they want a person with a personality.Exactly. And therein lies the issue, managers have no clue what kind of people they want for their jobs. :lol:

I wonder if I should put down I'm black for this job @ FedEx Kinkos.
Or maybe Pacific Islander.

CONFIRMED: White people don't get jobs anymore :cry:I think that might not fly on the interview, boo.

You never stop sucking. You just learn to suck less.

LOL, like WTF?
I just applied to CVS (it's like Walgreens, Rite Aid for those of you who don't have a CVS). It's a 5 minute walk from my Apartment :D
Personality tests, most all palces use them, especially retail. It's common sense really, if they ask you if you've ever stolen and it's a reail job, put no. If they ask you any sort of questions about intro/extrovertion, respond as an extrovert. they want "outgoing friendly people." Probably why i don't get retail jobs, i'd sooner tell someone off then asnwer their stupid retail questions.

Instead i have an alsmot to easy lab assistant job at school. Almost a non-job.

I'm ordering that at Amazon today for $35 after coupon.

I'm currently fighting with myself over if I should buy Slide Adventure Mag Kid from Playasia or not. $20 is cheap but I'll be pissed if I can't play it due to language barrier.


The little info I can find online says the basic Japanese knowledge would help, but that the game is still playable without it. Hrm...

HALP! :[
