I knew something was wrong at the start. The launch was all wrong, and I struggled to get going as other cars swarmed past me. I thought I had flubbed the start, and scrambled to try and catch up. But the car handled funny, and I couldn't get to grips with the cognitive dissonance I was feeling at first. Then, it hit me. I picked the wrong car. I should go back a bit. This is Forza Motorsport 4...
I got super lucky early in the race. Started 4th because a lot of cars didn't qualify, then the front 3 cars crashed in two different incidents on the first two laps, handing me the lead. I then braked a little early for a fast sweeping turn, causing the car behind me to get too close and panic, sliding the car sideways. The 3rd place car had no time to react and ran right into him, causing a b...
Even doing things in real life that you can do in video games are not as fun as the video game version. Killing people? Not fun in real life. Just leads to guilt...and also prison. Racing cars? Sure it would be fun...if you could afford it. Way cheaper to play video games, especially if you wreck. Saving money is fun. Flying a plane? Super stressful in real life, I bet. Not so in video games. P...
It's a good wheel that's still fairly cheap. Also force feedback is awesome. Also VINNY BUY A RACING WHEEL
It's been so long... Anyway, so I joined iRacing. It's like a cross between a racing sim and an MMO. You pay a monthly fee, and you have to demonstrate a certain level of competence to "rank up" and race against tougher competitors. Also, it comes with about 5 cars and 5 tracks...additional cars and tracks cost extra (real) money, although you can earn credits (by participating regularly) that...
I played Sports Champions today. Shit is pretty neat! I especially liked bocce. I need to get another Move controller and some friends, though. Do they sell friends at the store? Also, GT5 got patched again and now it's awesome. Eat it Yoshi!
Damn store was out of regular PS3s, and I wasn't interested in going somewhere else to find one, so I got the Move bundle...then got home and realized I gave my extra HDMI cable away...and need a USB hub to charge more than one controller and have the camera plugged in all at once...and another Move controller and regular controller...damn you Sony! Also bought GT5, which is installing a bunch...
Why do you want 20 bucks for the standard version of Fable 2, with no DLC, when the Platinum version (including 7 dollars worth of DLC) can be had on disc for the same price? I can't fucking wait for the time when all games are available through digital download.
This is a game that you probably wouldn't know about unless you hang out on the /u/ subforum of 4chan. That's the yuri board, you know, girl-girl romance/sexing. But you'd still probably like this game, because it's an old-school RPG without all the boring random encounters such games often contain. In fact, there's only like 3 battles in the whole thing, but the dialogue-driven story is well-w...
Going from a 20 GB hard drive to a 250 GB (well really, from 16-ish to 225-ish) is a bit of a shock. I was deleting all sorts of stuff to make way for DLC, and now I'm actively seeking out things to download just for the hell of it. I'm going to end up going back into the games I haven't played just to INSTALL them and then make large replay files to fill space. I'm gong to download demos of ga...
would write more, but gotta go play more minecraft.
I got the three red lights last weekend. Went into a panic, freaked out, thought my warranty was up. Found out it was still good for the RROD, did a dance. Now I've sent it out and just have to wait 2-3 weeks. Time to go buy Heavy Rain for PS3, I suppose.
Madden's Ultimate Team mode is strangely enticing in that it offers you the chance to build, well, the ULTIMATE TEAM. If only it weren't so damn hard to get coins. 21,000 coins for a platinum card pack? I'll never win that many games! "Oh, but there's an easier way," EA says in a hushed tone. "Step into this dark alley and look at all these coins." Sure, okay...no! I will not pay real money for...
157 events down, 63 to go. That includes about half the endurance races. So far I've only hired a driver for one of those. I have too many R-class races left because I don't like those as much. There's less car customization in racing classes. I also avoid the events that I don't have a car for yet, because I'm saving up for a Panoz but won't buy one until I have so many credits that spending 1...
It's been ~3 weeks since I got the game and I have 99 events to go, if I counted right. That means 120 or so done. I thought I was closer than that, but I know I'm past halfway anyhow. I gave up on trying to make the races fair and just started using R1 cars in the open events and blasting past the F class crapmobiles to get the races over with. Also, I hate racing against M. Rossi in the Veyro...
I have to S-rank Forza 3 because it's totally attainable. It doesn't have any achievements for beating the game on the ridiculously hard difficulty setting that you only unlock after beating it once on normal. It doesn't require you to get to the top of some online leaderboard or win 100 online games. It's totally reachable, but man, gold medals in every event is gonna take FOREVER. FOR. EV. ER...
Is this a blog? Oh gosh what do I do I am not good with blog...
