Congratulation on the job though What are you doing?
I'll be working for YPG (Yellow Pages Group). $11 an hour. Awww yeah And no sales or anything. Just student-level office work.
But yeah, I actually agree it would make more sense to call it Handegg. XD
Ah nice! Behind the scenes is definitely better than dealing with people is $11 an hour a good wage then? - it sounds decent enough
At least where I live, the minimum wage is something like $7.50 an hour. They might have raised it recently, actually. I dunno. But yeah, it's a really good wage for an entry-level position.
is anyone playing Portal 2?
i need to do co-op, haven't tried it yet because all my friends either don't wanna play it, or they're playing on another console.
and i really don't wanna play with randoms
so is anyone up for going thorugh the entire co-op campaign on xbox 360?
I'll pllay with you rob. i love portal 2 just add me GT: LEEROY696
only problem is i beat them all already so it might not be as fun
well, i'd prefer soeone who hasn't played it yet.
you'll probably just be frustrated when i can't figure stuff out, and then we'll both be annoyed.
think i just found a one on gamefaqs
Aaaahhhh, Portal 2 is completely wonderful. Just about as perfect as a game can be.
I'd love to hear how it goes with the co-op.
Rob, what's your gamertag? I should be getting in in a month. I don't mind if you don't want to wait that long.
And Lisa, what do you play on? 360 or PS3?
For both of you, my gamertag is GreatJoey Fogey (yes, with no space in front of "Joey").
I'm a PS3 kinda gal.
Another great reason to invest in a PS3: Lisa has one.
Another great reason not to: PSN
Love the PS3. It's great if you don't play online. Not a big fan of it. Don't like the 360 at all. I hate the awkward controllers.
I like the controllers of the 360. They fit better with my hands. I like the PS3 features better. Free to play online and it looks prettier. Even the dashboard is smoother to navigate and look through. And the PS3 hardware functions on a much better level than a 360's. Microsoft gives off a "tries-too-hard" impression on me. I do like the Xbox avatars, though. The PS3 ones aren't as fun.
Just my thoughts. I wish I could mix and match them together.
I agree that xbox controllers are much better to hold but having to pay for online sucks, atleast it doesn't get hacked though.
It's hard not to like the Xbox controller. The only initial complaint is the weight of it compared to the PS3 (which weighs almost nothing) but you don't even notice how heavy the Xbox's is after a little while.
I do like the PS3's dashboard so much more. It's much slicker and easier to navigate. But as for online, and this from what I've heard before PSN went down, I've heard that there's little to no moderation, so hackers and modders can do whatever they please (this was and still is a gigantic problem for Call of Duty games apparently). So I'm willing to pay only five bucks a month for a quality online experience.
Avatars are stupid. I'm sorry but Xbox is trying too hard to be like the Nintendo Wii and failing miserably (see Kinect for further evidence...)
I detest fanboy consoleism and think both the PS3 and Xbox are great.
I used to love the 360's controller but when I got a PS3 I just got used to the PS3 one instead. The triggers on the 360 controller are a million times better - they're actually trigger shaped - but I'm just more used to PS3 now.
In terms of on-screen display, I absolutely love the XMB while the Xbox display looks a bit average. Still, not a massive problem.
The recent PSN hack was quite annoying but it wasn't entirely Sony's fault and I don't play online that much anyway. I mostly just use PS Store (which still isn't back ) and VidZone, LoveFilm etc. Most people claim Xbox Live is a lot better than PSN but, to be honest, I can't comment. I've never had any major problems while actually online but obviously hacks are an issue. Still, I don't fancy paying for online play that I'd rarely use.
I prefer the actual look of the PS3 as it seems more sophisticated but then it was a lot more expensive! I was so close to buying a 360 but changed my mind at the last second based on friends' consoles. Definitely don't regret choosing it - I love Uncharted and Resistance
I wish the 360's controllers were more durable. I've gone through more of those than any Playstation controller I've owned. I do love the 360 trigger buttons, though. PS3 shooters make you use the tiny button. It doesn't feel right pressing it to shoot any gun. I forgave it when I tried AC2 on PS3, since it was just a running button.
That's mostly just for CoD that you use . A lot of other games (RDR, GTA, and others) use which is actually worse as your finger easily slips off and it's impossible to get them comfortable. The triggers on 360 are great as they're realistic and comfortable. On ps3, it's actually easier to use but a lot of games insist on using the 'trigger'
I like the PS3 controller's use of 2 trigger buttons on each side that feel the same. I don't like how the Xbox controller has two very different trigger buttons.
The xbox triggers actually feel like triggers though and it's hard to keep your finger on the ps3 triggers for a long time, it feels more natural on the xbox.
Since the Xbox trigger is spring loaded to have tension similar to a real trigger, it also makes it harder to press the button as rapidly as you can on the PS3. I've never had problems with keeping my fingers on the buttons of the PS3 triggers.

What the hell are you doing with 360 controllers that has them getting broken all the time? Whatever it is it can't be good...

I was wondering the exact same thing.

Actually, I don't know. Haha. I'm not an aggressive gamer and I don't rage quit or throw my controller at a wall. It's usually that a button gets stuck every once in a while or becomes unresponsive when I need it most. Most recently, my left analog stick became stuck pointing forwards by a small fraction of an inch, causing my character to constantly walk at a slow pace, forcing me to keep pushing down on the stick to keep them in 1 place.
And my on my other controller gets stuck sometimes. I use that for poison kills in ACB multiplayer. So many opportunities missed because of that sticky button.
I guess I have strong fingers...?
Joey, I've got pretty strong fingers (I play the bass and the piano, so, yeah) and the only thing on a controller I've ever broken is the Xbox button, I pushed it to the side while it was down, so it got stuck.
Maybe you should try cleaning out your controller?
The controller that has a sticky button does look kinda dirty in between the buttons, but I've used that one for years now, so it has to build up some dirt. I have a black one I got for Christmas and it works good, but I'll bet something happens to it by August.

i had the same problem with my old one. that was very annoying, especially in AC:B multiplayer, when i hide in a haycart and my character just jumps out.
and then it broke even more when it randomly thinks that the cord isn't in properly, and then i just got a new one
There's occasionally a large sum of users online. Me, Ian, stab, and trigger were in a chat all at once like last week or something, so yes, people do use the chat, just not as much as on ac-maps.
Is this still the case? Anyone still using chat?
I sometimes go on chat (usually when I see someone online who is likely to be in chat), but the last time I saw anyone in chat was the last stabby chat, over a month ago.
I only get online during stabby chat. I don't like randomly chatting. I'd rather it be a special occasion.
Well, looks like I win.
Ahem...
cmon guys this is just getting pointless, although it never really had a point, so actually keep going, I am going to WIN in the end!

This topic being pointless is the whole point. And it's beautiful! I also doubt you're going to win.
And I doubt you are going to win...
I come from a long line of stubborn people, so I'm game.
Hmm... see the title of this topic? Yeah, that's not gonna change...
Now I win.
And now you don't.
My post doesn't even have to be visible and I still beat you...
Judo Chop!
Hmm... see the title of this topic? Yeah, that's not gonna change...
I see you still haven't changed the title back... beware of this-->
Still not gonna happen...
Correct term would be either 'come on me bro' or 'come in me bro'. I refuse to do either.
P.S. I win.

This comment makes you pretty close to winning
But it turns out I just beat you
I now find it hard to look at this topic as I may see that photo :/
Let's get to page 13 then.
Let's.
600!
