[quote name="micbelt" post="12100027" timestamp="1410904570"]I want to go to the game, but Ubaldo is pitching and Hutchinson has been the one pitcher to own the O's.[/quote]

micbelt is dumb. Confirmed.

AL East Division Champs!!!! It was awesome!
 
I got a bunch of those Little Caesers pretzel crust pizzas for my boys bday party yesterday. So good for $6 a pop.
I thought they were a little heavy handed with the pretzle crust. Too much crust, not enough middle pizza.

Although, I was no fan of the crust, the middle was really good. And whatever that cheese they sprinkled on top was good too.
 
I really don't understand why people take a spot in an 8 person game when there are 30 people trying to get in, just so that they can cheat and look up every answer.

 
Good to know. I was all prepared to bite on the bundle after listening to all the praise in here. But if the extra shit is useless and just new skins or whatever, then I'll gladly save the $3.
I have the DLC on the PC version, I think it was worth it, though I only paid like a $1.40. It grants you a collection of weapons and new vehicles, but you still have to use in-game currency to purchase them from the black market.
some highlights:
*I quite like Rico's signature gun, which is more powerful than a normal handgun, and quick to fire and reload, but isn't as powerful as the revolver.
*There is a version of the parachute which has rocket thrusters on it.
*The monster truck and the hovercraft have aimable mini-guns

*It comes with the fastestet jet with the most fire power (four guns and 2 missile launchers) in the game
*The quad-fire missile launcher, the multi-lock missile launcher, and the cluster grenade launcher cause massive destruction.

*and then there's the air propulsion gun...

Thanks for streaming Stotch.  Great fun!  Couple cheaters tried to ruin it but if you ignore their scores you can still see who the real winner was.

I wonder, does Twitch have any sort of "private streaming" so we can only invite cool CAGs to play?

 
Of course when I play PC games again I'll probably be finishing up Bioshock, AC2, and DE:HR DC first since I'm already a decent way into those. So JC2 will probably be waiting until next year. :)

I do love that Just Cause 2 runs really well with even a modest rig. My graphics card blew out a couple of years ago and I replaced it with a mid-tier one and it runs it with huge draw distance, high resolution and silky framerate.

 
After trying to beat that raid all day we finally beat the first triple cap dom area, only to go to a 2nd area where you can't instant revive. You can't even timed revive, you need your buddies to do it. We all died over and over. Off to level up a bunch more and hope to hit 27 soon. ugh. this grind is getting too real now. also got 2/3 new girls coming over tonite probly. already got ids verified/etc.
pix?

 
Anybody do emulation on their Vita? Looks like n64 performance isn't that good from what I'm seeing on Youtube, but I'm wondering if that's game-dependent or across the board.

 
Getting to 20 in Revelations wasn't so bad, I thought. With some of the improvements that were brought in compared to Brotherhood, I just played it for about 5 hours and got it without XP boosting. I wouldn't mind online trophies so much if that's all they were: incentive to play the game for a few hours.

Making you reach level caps is garbage, though.
Mainly I found it annoying because it's post lvl 20 when you get access to some of the OP shit that the lvl 50's always use against you like mute, smoke bombs, and the gun. If you get match made so that all the single digit, 10's and sub-20s are on one team and all the 50's are on the other team (this happened about 60% of the time) then the match ends up being low scoring and not very fun. It's around lvl 15 or 16 that you start getting access to some more interesting stills and you can fully fill out your custom skill loadout, that it starts to become more fun. They are too stingy with the upgrades for the first 15 levels.

 
Unlike most other game series, Hitman improved with every iteration (and then took a different direction in absolution). So if you are interested in buying only 1, the quality order is thus:

1.)Blood Money

2.)Contracts

3.)Silent Assassin

Silent Assassin is a bit more on the Metal Gear Solid end of the spectrum, where you are mainly infiltrating remote, heavily armed compounds and military bases to assassinate targets. Blood Money is more on the "murder sandbox" end of the spectrum where your target(s) are at public functions (opera, wedding, birthday party, Mardi Gras, etc.) and you have many, many different methods you can use to directly kill them, pin the deed on someone else, or make it look like an accident. Most of the Blood Money levels are great fun with only a few that aren't that enjoyable to replay (like the mostly linear river boat).

Contracts kinda straddles the line between the two play styles as it features some public space levels like Blood Money, but still features "infiltrate enemy stronghold type missions" like Silent Assassin, this is mainly because it features remakes of levels from the original Hitman 1 game which was only on PC.

The hotel level in Contracts is fantastic though, probably one of my top 5 favorite Hitman levels, much better than the hotel/casino level in Blood Money.

Please tell me you bought the PS4 version. The PS3 version is supposed to be crapola compared to PS4.
PS3 version. I originally bought the ps3 version for $6 thanks to the GCU coupon glitch in march, and paid for the $10 ps4 upgrade fee right before it expired. ive traded and rebought the game several times since then. but I need the ps3 disc to play my digital ps4 version so thats why I bought the ps3 disc.
