From the last OTT
I got that right after it released, and I barely played it. I don't know why. I wish I had played it more.
No you don't. Do you have fond memories of playing SC on DC? Or playing SC2?
SC3 will piss on all of those memories.
So if I already have Sprint Vision (or whatever), I would be able to use that on an iPhone (after jailbreaking it)?
Nope.
Sprint=CDMA phone, thus no SIM card. The numbers are hardwired to the phone w/ CDMA.
With a GSM phone, the numbers are in a SIM card, which can be ported from GSM phone to GSM phone.

So basically, the only reason people even have unlocked iPhones is so they can use T-Mobile? That seems sort of...pointless. Unless it's not, and there is some awesome reason behind this.

They're not just unlocked, they're jailbroken, which means file access.
Which means a wealth of third party apps and tweaks to make your iPhone do so much more than it normally does.

No you don't. Do you have fond memories of playing SC on DC? Or playing SC2?
SC3 will piss on all of those memories.
Soul Calibur on Dreamcast is in my top 5 games ever (I rented a Dreamcast and SC, and had to go through the Mission (?) mode multiple times, since there was no way to save. Eventually I bought it, but still, I was pretty dedicated).
SC2 had long load times on PS2, which sort of irritated me. The game was pretty awesome, though.
I received SC3 for Christmas, and I know full price was paid, so I sort of feel like it was a waste to not play. But at that point, I was sort of not playing many games, so I sort of have an excuse.
Sprint=CDMA phone, thus no SIM card. The numbers are hardwired to the phone w/ CDMA.
With a GSM phone, the numbers are in a SIM card, which can be ported from GSM phone to GSM phone.
Ah. That's unfortunate.

I'm currently on the Sprint SERO plan (which is so awesome), but an iPhone would probably make work go by so much faster (internet on my A-900 is tiny). Hopefully they crack the 3G iPhones fairly quickly. I'd much rather have one of those than an older generation one. Fortunately, my current contract doesn't end until November, so shit should probably be good by then.
Do you have a link to the plan you're on (if this even is a standard plan)? Also, would this be less than $55 if I only had one phone (which would be the case)?
Also...
Goddamnit, today was the last day for the $10 off 360 games at Target coupon. I was going to buy that 3-pack for $19.99 or whatever, and flip it to Gamestop. Anyone know of any other awesome flips? MGS 4 LE is expensive. :cry:
I still have two copies of Bioshock from that 5 for $25 Blockbuster coupon, and I can trade in Red Steel. I suppose I could trade in Oblivion (PS3, and also from that coupon).

I feel like I'm supposed to be getting a corporate discount. I'll have to ask about that.
Hopefully they just eliminate that rule. I'll just have to wait and use my current phone. iPhones are nice, but I like only paying about $43 a month or so. I guess it's not as if I have to make a decision right now.

There are bastards in Adam's Morgan (DC) that "help" you park your car in the rare street spot that frees up and then hold out their hand for money. I always figured the assumed deal is that you either give them money or they fuck up your car.
Basically they stand in front of any spot that comes open and wave people over. Then they make hand motions telling you "yes this is a parking spot and you should put your car here if you want to park." Vital service.

I seldom drive up to SF even though its only a 45 minute drive. Last time I went, I parked on the street and got out of the car and there was a homeless guy about 5 feet away from me. He kept bugging me for money. He then said something like, "C'mon man, just give me something and...and I'll watch over your car! Yeah!" That kinda spooked me, so I gave him a couple bucks. When I got out of the club at 2am and returned to my car, Lo and behold, the cars in front and back of me had smashed windows and my car was still fully intact. If I ever see that guy again, I should thank him, but I really don't want to go through that ordeal ever again.
Besides that, Gas prices are getting fucking ridiculous. $4.50 and up in my area and I'm sure in SF it will be around $5.
Have you never seen a signal mafia movie? Thats the old protection racket scheme, give me money or something bad happens to you.

The Fear is ridiculous, he's really fast, I like to use the AK.
The End, you can definitely use the tranq on,
The Fury, machine gun of choice.
Pretty much, The End is the only one left you're going to want to use a tranq on. Everyone else it's too much of a pain in the ass.
Make sure to get The End's camo it's the best, you get it differently than the other bosses.

Yeah, that shit sucks.
Banana plugs give you the freedom of fastening them anywhere, and then speaker cables become simple "plug and play".
If I were you I'd buy a complete set, but at least get them on your receiver.
There's two main types.
Side entry, and rear entry.
I prefer rear entry type (haw haw) as they're more secure.

If you can handle doing this, then yeah.

Why 7 pairs?
Doing 7.1?
Ideally, you'd have one set at each end of the cable.
Depends if you want to use plugs on your speakers too.

Yeah, I'm setting the other two up as soon as I can find some cheap mounts and figure out the best way to run the cable. They're not much but I think it's novel.
I thought the 605 couldn't matrix 7.1 out of a base 5.1 sound though?
Also, is this what I need to connect my headphones to the receiver?

The more my friend tries to push me into MGS the less I like it. He showed me those retro videoes...shits weird. Totally normal for a Japanese game though...I guess. Specifically MGS3...you wait it out to let a boss die of old age...another boss you die and take a revive pill to continue. Also, managing inventory to keep weapons or food might get too cumbersome. I was just about to pull the trigger on MGS4 essentials but that retro video is making me think twice.

The new stuff in MGS3 could be taken either way... like the food system and the camo system... but it sounds like your friend is just doing a poor job conveying some of the finer points of the series. Cool storyline with over the top bosses. Brilliant innovative thinking like some of the stuff your friend mentions just adds to the wow. And there's more than one way to defeat The End, it just so happens that "waiting for the boss to die of old age" is one of the more clever options. The "Solid" series of Metal Gear games has always had James Bond-esque super villain type bosses. It's just a part of the series.
Zew, Jumbo:
It's been awhile since I played MGS2... is there anything like the shenanigans with The End or Psycho Mantis in MGS2?
and :rofl: @ family games.
Mojimbo
06-10-2008, 05:16 PM
No, I played through MGS1 15-20 times when I was a kid. Back then I was budging it up so I could really only get one game every couple of months. It stuck with me cause before that it was just corny garbage, that game was different with its emphasis on reality, real guns, real locations, references to real events in history.
I bought MGS2 the day it came out on Xbox1 but it didn't feel right so I waited until I could get Substance on PS2 and by that time I already knew about the twist and was pretty disappointed by it.
I bought MGS3 a couple weeks after it came out(thanks to CAG, shit was like $16 after KayBee ---> Circuit City price match) but I was intimidated by how deep it was so it got lost in that Holiday's releases by the time I got interested in picking it back up Subsistence was around the corner with the new camera so I waited on that too.
I don't really regret it though, I had a garbage TV and sound system and playing through MGS2/3 in full matrixed 5.1/7.1 on an HDTV is way better than I could've done if I had played them on release. They still hold up exceptionally well, especially with all the details and sick visual effects. I was blown away by the thermal goggles in both MGS2 and MGS3, for example.

Are you playing them upscaled on the triple or on a PS2, jimbo?
I was surpised at how slick MGS3 was when I played through it back in March. Haven't ever played one of the Director's Cut versions though...
