[quote name='Jesus_S_Preston']Chac, can you come be my girlfriend's lawyer, she has a court date tomorrow[/QUOTE]

Are you fucking serious? If you are, please detail the charges and I will assess what will happen.
 
It was a great work environment, I just needed a kick to the balls. Though everything I did, made work easier for them. I basically changed a whole bunch of things so that my work would be easy and almost to the point where I didn't need to be there. My hours were cut last week too, to 25 a week.

They still need to pay me.
 
[quote name='j-cart']fuck my old job. The job I just got fired from said I was not office friendly enough.

I worked with 5 females and my boss was the only male. Best part? I just picked up his maid today from the dry cleaner's and dropped her off at his house. Then I got back and had go to the restroom really bad so quickly walked by his office without saying anything.

Afterwards he asked me into his office and said I was done there because I have no office skills. In the end, the job wasn't a career, it was a job for the time being. It wasn't because I didn't get shit done, because I did.[/QUOTE]

Real Talk Mode: On

Well if it wasn't a career, I can't really blame you for it. Sounds like you pretty much hated whatever it was you were doing. With the economy the way it is, I feel somewhat obligated to be like "you should be thankful you have a job at all," but really... fuck it. Don't settle for shit that's clearly beneath you. That's exactly how people railroad themselves into a life that provides them no sense of accomplishment, no satisfaction, no happiness, and no real worth as a person.

Real Talk Mode: Off.

I don't legit want you to come be a Super Lawyer. But yeah for reals, she got arrested the week before we met for
possession of marijuana & marijuana paraphernalia. Or whatever.
 
[quote name='corrosivefrost']I like what they did with Liu Kang's bicycle kick... looks much better than MKII/UMK3 days. :)

Define "wasn't too bad"? Would uraizen have been blood-sacrificing the innocent to get a better connection or was it "not much lag if any noticeable at all"? ;)

It's hit or miss. Some games I couldn't tell at all. Other games it was bad.

I need more detail than that. Possession of marijuana is a pretty minor offense, but I need more info like... circumstances and shit. If the cops caught her with a felony amount or got her on intent to distribute or something like that, she's got a problem.

Well, a bigger one.

Seems like she was preparing for 4/20

That sucks. I think I need the same thing to happen to me too. I'm not at a career job either. I need to be fired so I can get things in order and move on to something better.

All I know is that she got arrested with two other people while smoking in someone's parked car. I don't think they had a particularly large amount with them or anything. She was apparently on other stuff too but they didn't get tested or anything so I think that's not relevant.
 
The thing was that it was a job that I needed, I have no solid work experience. Thats what this job was going to be. Either way, I hate the office environment, to clean for me.

I didn't hate the job though. It was enjoyable. I know some pretty awesome secrets that could net me money, but also get me into A LOT of trouble. Not crossing that path.

Okay, yeah. It's just gonna be a small fine then. A slap on the wrist, really. It's a misdemeanor and she's not going to get off the hook for it, but it's not going to really fuck up her record or anything. Be merry. Go have wild sex while smoking crack. I don't care.

yeah not worried. no crack though drugs are for thugs.

Bummed, thought maybe since I had UMK3 on my XBLA download history I could unlock the full game. No such luck. I have an MK itch but not a 60 dollar one.

Why do you need to get fired? That's just a bad blip on your resume and means you can't use the job as a reference.

Do a good job and start looking for other jobs to move to. It's never good to get fired and have an employer you thus can't list on your resume etc. as you're not going to get a job if they call a past employer who fired you and get negative feedback.

I don't think he was entirely serious, breh.
 
Hmm... are there any good XBLA games I should pick up? I was gonna get Dishwasher: Vampire Smile and Shinobi, but I dunno if there's anything else worth getting... as far as I know, the stuff I didn't already get is shit, or only good because of nostalgia (X-Men.)

Here's what I have so far:

After Burner: Climax
Final Fight: Double Impact
Guwange
Ikaruga
Rez HD
Strania
Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo HD
Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix

As you can see, I'm a weeaboo. Stuff that's multiplatform like Super Meat Boy I already have on Steam instead.

oh, and I don't like Shadow Complex.
 
Chac, check out Afterburner Climax. It's pretty sweet.

Phantasy Star II? Only 200 points this week...

I really like Hydro Thunder as well, I think you would like it. The XBLA version is the best version of the game I ever played.
 
Some of my personal picks would be (I think these are exclusives):

Splosion Man
The Maw
Limbo
Geometry Wars 2
Trials HD

And like Jimbo said, Hydro Thunder is fun.
 
Limbo... now was that game as pretentious and boring as Braid? I remember thinking it looked interesting in what little I saw, but I dunno.
 
[quote name='Chacrana']Limbo... now was that game as pretentious and boring as Braid? I remember thinking it looked interesting in what little I saw, but I dunno.[/QUOTE]

Well I really liked playing it, but I also loved the puzzles in Braid. So I'm probably not the best source of judgment for that. I will say that the two games are very different though.
 
Finished up Godric's part of Clash of Heroes HD, which started out being really hard due to the odd pacing of battles they offer early on but plateaued once I got the artifact that let me call in reinforcements without losing a turn. This is my digital game of the year so far over BG&E HD, Torchlight, PixelJunk Shooter 2, Stacking, and Tales From Space: About A Blob so far.

I'm playing Limbo currently. I'm liking it a lot more than Braid. I found the puzzles in Braid often obtuse. There were several I'd have never figured out without looking it up on a FAQ.

So far the puzzles in Limbo are more straight forward and more related to just noticing something in the environment and figuring out how to use it. But I'm not all that far in, so maybe it gets trickier.

I also don't find anything pretentious in Limbo. There's not really any story yet, just straight platforming and solving puzzles with no dialogue or anything.
 
[quote name='icebeast']Wow AH3 is big, people are saying it is a 2.5GB download, not looking forward to downloading that with how slow PSN can be downloading stuff at times. Also, at some point I probably need to invest in a bigger hard-drive for my PS3 because my 80GB one only has maybe 25-30GB left. Hopefully if save transfers work it shouldn't be a hard process when I do it (so I hopefully don't lose even the locked saves), the only thing I really care about right now would be the games I'm playing and transferring my DA saves for DA2.[/QUOTE]

2.5GB is tiny. My Record of Agarest War is almost 10GB. It took me around 30 or less minutes to download Arcana Heart 3 from PSN. I have over 400GB of HDD space left, so I'm fine. :D

That's a good sign. I like platform/puzzlers that don't waste your time with dumb shit, and that are genuinely clever. That's why I liked VVVVVV more than most games I played from last year.
 
[quote name='Chacrana']What the fuck?

http://www.giantbomb.com/news/symphony-of-the-night-composer-signs-on-for-skullgirls/3063/

Apparently, Michiru Yamane, the composer for Symphony of the Night, is doing the music for the inevitably Godawful Skullgirls fighting game? Whaaaaat?[/QUOTE]

Plus GGPO? Shame I don't like the general concept of fighting hats. :\

Stuff I have that I'd recommend:

Dishwasher: Dead Samurai
Dishwasher: Vampire Smile
Castle Crashers
Alien Hominid HD
Galaga Legions
Pacman CE
Pacman CE DX
Geometry Wars
Geometry Wars 2
Magic The Gathering: Duels of the Planeswalkers
Space Invaders Extreme

Yeah, that's pretty much how all of Limbo is. It's much easier and more straightforward than Braid. And the story is basically non-existent. It's definitely more appealing for people that aren't into art games and difficult puzzle games.

I did, however, love Braid's puzzles and I didn't think any of them were poorly designed or anything. I figured every one of them out without a guide, and I would say that it was the most satisfying puzzle/adventure game I've ever played. I know I'm pretty much alone in the GGT in thinking this, but Braid was honestly one of the best games I've ever played, downloadable or not.
