Samuel Dravis Posted October 25, 2008 Posted October 25, 2008 Heh, just reading some of the stuff doesn't mean I'm a philosopher! But it is interesting. Most of the difficulty with it is learning the jargon that an author might use. Past that, though, it's relatively easy to figure out what the problems are even if you aren't experienced with the subject. Providing an answer to those problems... now, that's a different matter.
BongoBob Posted October 25, 2008 Posted October 25, 2008 I BEAT BLACKENED YESTERDAY, AND FINALLY BEAT VISIONS TODAY BY MYSELF ON EXPERT DRUMS! SWEET ZOMBIE JESUS!
jon_hill987 Posted October 25, 2008 Posted October 25, 2008 I'm installing XP on it now, the OS this netbook ships with is useless. It might have Ubuntu on it by the end of the week though...
BongoBob Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 As of last night at 10:15 PM, I have conquered Rock Band 2's Endless Setlist 2 on Expert Drums. I started at 2:30, and played all 84 songs back to back, with only a 15 minute break after the 30th song to eat a snack. Surprisingly enough, my arms aren't completely dead today either.
Darth Groovy Posted October 26, 2008 Author Posted October 26, 2008 While I have had this since Tues, I have not found time to play it. I have been drowning in new releases, and general work load. Also, been planning a Halloween party, and managed to find time to go to my friend's Halloween party last night after the stupid Guitar Hero launch. Outside of Halloween, I really hate this time of year, retailers everywhere run Christmas down your throat until you can't even breathe anymore.
BongoBob Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 This is what I would have bought today. Thankfully, I found out online that my ION Drum Rocker doesn't work properly with GH:WT before purchasing it. It reads the set as a GH:WT kit and instead of compressing the note chart to a 4 note lane it keeps the 5 note lane. That's the good thing. The bad thing is hitting either of the cymbals registers as both that cymbals note as well as the orange note for some reason. Now, a part of me wants to say this is just a temporary problem and will be patched. But then I remember how big of a dick activision is when it comes to things like this. Activision tried as hard as they could to prevent Harmonix from releasing a patch for the PS3 version of the original Rock Band that allowed the PS3 GHIII Les Paul controllers to work with Rock Band. Add in the fact that to this day the Rock Band guitar will not work with Guitar Hero III (as ****ty as the Rock Band guitar is, this is still a dick move), and you get an idea of how high my hopes are that Activision will fix this (READ: NOT THAT HIGH).
TiE23 Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 Total waste of a post... but I was experimenting with Altair a little today... got a little carried away... You know, methodically killed a crowd of about 120+ people who were under mind control. (Whoops, spoiler alert if you haven't played it). :V

TiE23 Posted October 27, 2008 Posted October 27, 2008 Now now, I couldn't be more vague. So don't worry.

Looks like just a design to me. I don't see anything that could be read in that, unless it's Norwegian or something. Also, Pie gets +1 internets for They Live.
Pie™ Posted October 27, 2008 Posted October 27, 2008 It's a very primitive logo. You'd never have guessed it, but the band's name is Wolves In The Throne Room. Apparently the members live in a cabin and grow their own food, the music is atmospheric and very good though.

I might check out their music, atmospheric is always a plus for me.

A current favorite of mine claims they're from Venus. :V [/fail]

TiE23 Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 Made my brother buy it cause I'm tired of buying pretty much every game we have. (360 version) I think I may get Fallout 3 tomorrow...
Boba Rhett Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 YAY YAAAAAAAAAY *breathe* YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY. Also got another Woot shirt:

TiE23 Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 My money printing machine broke down. So now I'm back to you know... minimum wage. Also, **** getting Fallout day one. I think I'll wait a week or so at the least. I still gotta play Dead Space and Far Cry 2... and RB2 is still providing lots of fun, hurr... Broke my old highscore on Green Grass and High Tides again, 316k, I can hit the zig zags much better now (I got a 4x going inside of one) and it was a blast playing Bodhisattva yesterday, ****ing butter.
