[quote name='zewone']Of course not.

Just get a beta key from MS.[/quote]

Yeah, I did that -- but I'd seen your post talking to someone in the GGT about hoping they had a Vista key since the beta wouldn't last forever -- thought maybe they'd let you use the non-retail version on the Vista key, since they're trying to pretend like vista never happened. :)
 
I'm thinking of dumping my PoP and picking it up cheaper later...it screams budget title. It's not horrible, but you can tell it's Assasin's creed with a new look and story...feels like a straight up sequel or prequel of AC.
 
[quote name='Eviltude']It looks like fun, but I hear it's too easy. I hate struggling to figure out where I am supposed to go next in a game, but to have a giant neon sign with an arrow pointing to it isn't much fun either.[/quote]

not any easier than SoT or WW really. people get the impression it's easy because you can't die -- but there's a cheese/trophy for (basically) dying less than 100 times before you complete the game.

where the game fails for me, is in both the combat and the ending. the combat gets really repetative really quick, and other than a couple basic enemies as you're moving from section to section, there's something like 5 enemy types as you just continually fight the boss of the area over and over (5 times each). and the ending... don't even get me started. easily the worst ending i've seen in a long time... maybe in the last 10 years if not my entire gaming history.
 
[quote name='Liquid 2']It does that with programs that have multiple instances open, but with IE8, it shows you the tabs it has in it. Shit's super slick.[/QUOTE]

Ah yeah, that is nice, but not worth the lack of customization and security.
 
I have heard the combat is mildly shitty, but i haven't heard anything regarding the story. Save your spoilers though as I plan to play it soon.

Security hasn't been an IE issue since IE6, which was awful.

But yeah, add ons really put FF on top.
 
Well, mostly meant pop up blocking where IE is still garbage in that regard.

Using IE is an easy way to get infected with adware and spybots.

Not even that long.

There's no timer, but I was able to get the "beat under 12 hours" cheese without even trying. Like, I was fucking around and still got it.

Yes, because there are tons of stealth and assassination missions in PoP... :roll:

How many fertile grounds have you restored in 2 hours, LP?
There's like 25 total. And like 5 bosses. The game is short as all hell.

I'll keep playing for a few hours and see how it goes...don't think I'm going to go for all the lightseeds...that will probably take longer.

[quote name='corrosivefrost']Yes, because there are tons of stealth and assassination missions in PoP... :roll:[/quote]

Ok, yeah...maybe not a straight up sequel/prequel...but it's clearly using the same engine, and it plays very familiar.

1 so far...I was mainly fucking around jumping from place to place.
 
I just checked and it was just over 12 hours, which I even took my time to get through it.

AC's a lot more open than PoP was. Of course it uses the same engine, they were both made by the same team.
 
I was one of the few people who enjoyed Assassin's Creed. It wasn't amazing, but it was a solid 8/10. The ending was shit of course.

Chrome>FF>IE
The add ons in FF are nice, but freezing when I go to certain sites and being slow aren't.

Also, I took back the PS3 FO3 and got it for 360. Dude was super cool about it, I didn't have the receipt but it still had the hastings stickers and I brought in the two games I bought with it.
 
I got that Watchmen motion comic on my iPhone. Shit is really, really nice. Only thing is they should have added a female to the voice cast.
 
It's also pretty lazy that all achivements have the same icon:

OTT brings the beers![/QUOTE]


Good, all we have is two corona's. Got the hard shit covered though.
 
I really regretting getting budget shipping on that monitor. Sure, it saved me like $20-30, but it hasn't shipped yet, and when it does, it'll take 7-9 business days to arrive.

My resolution woes should get taken care of when it gets here though, at least in Windows 7, since I can set 1920x1200 in Power Strip (but not 1440x900 :bomb:).
 
Ahh Canadian Club. Take my problems away.

Good work sir. I read that and wondered when I said it.

[quote name='Trakan']Mak, I just got a reported post linking to one of those Sexypoot posts.

"I believe this is a second account of Maklershed."[/quote]

GO RAVENS! :whee: :whee: :whee:

I think The Titans can march down feel and at least get close to FG range in the time they have with the way they have played this game. That is, unless they turn it over again.
 
[quote name='Mojimbo']Do you feel guilty for indirectly getting Sexy Poot banned, Marklershed?[/quote]


Nah, $$$$a was gonna get banned anyway.
