I hate the ant lions. Until... well, until a certain point.

I moved into the old Michigan State Prison (from the 1800s), which has been converted to apartments, studios and lofts for artists.

Ah.

You need a housewarming gift of any kind? Well, not any kind... You need a housewarming gift of the cheap kind?


[quote name='shrike4242']Cake or death?[/quote]As much as I'm looking forward to what comes with death, once I'm there it's gonna be for a long time. For now, I think I'll take the cake instead.

BUH-DUM-DISH!

Thank-you! I'll be here all week!

I just went inside my first Oblivion gate. Damn, I'm glad I decided to stick with the game. The only problem is I'm already 5 hours in but I'm still at level 1. Is leveling up supposed to be this slow?

Also, Brak, did you ever get a video of that time you were on the news?

No.

I think my parents forgot to tape it.

You have to go to sleep to level up, by the way.

You mean I have to go to an inn or something and actually sleep to level up?

What brak said -- you have to sleep in a bed to get a level up. I think there's an icon that appears on your display when you've leveled up -- it looks like a clock with a moon... (at least that's what I think the icon to the right of my compass was... )

Also, another way to know that you've leveled up is when you see the status message in the upper right that says:

" skill increased. You should rest and meditate on what you've learned."
 
[quote name='dcfox']You mean I have to go to an inn or something and actually sleep to level up?[/quote]
Yes, or any place there's a bed. You can find them at bandit camps, in churches, inns, people's houses -- one of the easier places to sleep for free is at cloud ruler temple or whatever, if you've made it that far. Sleep for 1 hour and you'll be presented with a level up screen. Keep doing that until you sleep for an hour and no level up screen is presented (I'm assuming you're going to jump like 4-8 levels, depending on where you are and how much your main skills have increased.)

Yeah.

Plume is playing HL2 right now
 
[quote name='Number83']Wubb, I accepted your invite for Ageis Wing, but it automatically sent me in the lobby because you were on a mission. Not sure what I was supposed to do after that, so I left.

Time to get my Assassins Creed going...[/QUOTE]

Sorry man. Some young dude jumped in with Guiles and I and was all hot and bothered to start up immediately. I waited for not very long and then we jumped in. Guy was a friggin power up hog too.

I just went inside the first Oblivion gate just outside Kvatch. I don't remember seeing the message asking me to meditate but I have seen those skill increase messages.

Well, I haven't had that much problems with enemies so far. I guess I can put off leveling up for now.
 
Tried the Pacman C.E. trial and it's a pretty neat game. $10 is kind of steep but I might have gone for it except XBL doesn't let you buy just 800 ($10) in points. You have to buy 500 or 1000 points. Forget that lame shit, MS can take a hike. I'll maybe pick up a 1600 point card at Target tomorrow and probably pick it up then. But I was at the Target today and I don't think they had any cards so it all depends on if they are putting a fresh batch out for the sale or not.

Are there any good multiplayer XBLA, both offline and online multi? (Prefer good co-op.)

The game levels up as you do, so you won't fight anything too tough.
 
Space Giraffe and Pac-Man Championship Edition are the two best titles on XBLA.
 
[quote name='Brak']Space Giraffe and Pac-Man Championship Edition are the two best titles on XBLA.[/QUOTE]

Have you tried most of them?

From reading the concept I wasn't too sure about Pacman CE but the trial was really fun.
 
Pac-Man CE is essentially pac-man, but prettier, from what I gathered from the demo.

Space Giraffe is the best XBLA single player, hands down, wubb.
 
I think I'm stuck in HL2. Shortly after I met the manhacks, I was running on some pipes in a dark hallway (with steam shooting out and a few barnacles along the way) and I don't see a way out. :whistle2:(

I kind of wish I could move on to Episode 1 and 2 since they're shorter, but I'm guessing it's more rewarding to play them in order.

Ooh, looks like Assassin's Creed came today. :D I may switch over to that now since I'm stuck.
 
Are you guys shitting me about Space Giraffe? IGN gave it a shitty review.

Just checked GR and the reviews are all over the map. Seems like a love it or hate it thing.

Look at the lambda to the right. Jump down, go under the pipe and get the lambda pack. Go back to the window, and look to the right. There is a small hole to jump down.

I think Brak and Liquid are the only two people in the OTT with 360s who like it.

fuck IGN and all the naysayers.

If you're wary, just grab the demo (and do NOT judge it before you understand what's going on).
 
[quote name='TFN']Brak has like 9,387 XBLA titles.[/QUOTE]
Close. 66.
 
I've got Space Giraffe but I totally forgot about it and never even tried it. I'm sure I'd like it after watching those YouTube videos on how to completely understand how its played. My taste sucks as you all say, so probably not.[quote name='guinaevere']Dude, then he clearly doesn't need anything for the apartment.[/quote]
You can never have too much. Unless it becomes hard to walk in your area or something, then you've got too much.:cool:
 
[quote name='corrosivefrost']I think Brak and Liquid are the only two people in the OTT with 360s who like it.[/QUOTE]But then again, we have impeccable taste.
 
Apparently you can take local players on XBL with you with Bomberman Live. I might get Pacman CE and that if I end up with a 1600 point card tommorow.
 
I hate this bullshit on CNN Headline News. Comcast pre-empts the last 5 minutes and replaces it with their own programming and its always horrible and irrelevant.
 
[quote name='dcfox']That's nothing. I own 158 virtual console titles.[/quote]

I didn't even know there were that many. I guess I haven't been to the Shop Channel in a while.
 
3-4 titles a week for a year is a lot, Sofa King. Too bad most of them are overpriced for just being the game itself with nothing else to offer.

You're crazy. SOTN shits on everything on XBLA.

And why did the new Neon Genesis Evangelion come out 3 months ago and I wasn't informed?

When I found out last night, it was like a kick in the nuts and a punch in the gut. :cry:

That's probably why I haven't bothered looking for so long...
 
[quote name='zewone']You're crazy. SOTN shits on everything on XBLA.[/QUOTE]The demo for that game was AIDS to the max.

Is the game itself, for some odd reason, completely different and better?
