Well I bought Assassin's Creed 1 and 2 last night and reserved Brotherhood all for 10 bucks. Traded in The Force Unleashed 2 (possibly the shortest game I've ever played. Seriously I've had longer sessions of SMB on the original NES and don't get me started on Zelda 2).

Lets see the list of games that I have to play/complete now.

AC1
AC2
Uncharted 2 (in progress)
God of War 1, 2, and 3
GTA IV
Ratchet and Clank
LittleBigPlanet (I never finished the single player, always checking out other's creations)
SMB Wii
SMGalaxy 2

and a handful of PS2 games somehow.

Oh and Epic Mickey and WoW:Cataclysm are coming up soon...*sigh*

Yes, thats 13+ regular games before year's end. I love my hobby.

I need Alienware, like now.:(

I thought I'd come pay this thread a visit. I saw that folks were over here talking about video games. Now, that's something I can chat about.:) I'm disappointed that there are some games that are available for the 360 that aren't sold here in the U.S. I only play the driving simulators and that's it. If it's an arcade racing game and not a sim, I won't buy it. This is a tease and dead wrong that it's not sold here. Screenshots of F1 2010 below. As far as I know, it's only sold overseas. It just doesn't get any better than this. Since EA cancelled NASCAR, the only racing sim I have that I play now is Forza 3. That and NASCAR 08. I'm still in the middle of a season on that one. I haven't started NASCAR 09 yet. I race a full season, on the hardest level, no driving help from the computer, etc. Full blown realism, 100% of the laps.:D

PrettyBoy you really need to get a PS3 and get Gran Turismo 5. It will probably be the greatest racing sim ever lol

Yeah, I hear that it's supposed to have everything in it. I have to see it and play it first, though. I've always liked Gran Turismo, but I didn't like that it didn't have "damage" in it, so I never got a PS2 for that reason. If the new game matches what I've been hearing, then I'd get a PS3 just for that game. I'm that addicted to driving sims.

Three more days! :p This weekend is gonna be the best movie weekend ever! "Unstoppable", and my reason for posting this over here is for "Skyline". I'm so excited about seeing that movie.:)

ms_gwyn 11-09-2010 07:12 PM

Oooo please say you're a PS3 person!!!??? I don't do much online but thats the main reason I'm getting Brotherhood.

Black Ops will probably be gotten at some point unfortunately.

Watching Star Wars IV for the umptheenth time - *sigh* gotta love this

cheerfulgreek 11-10-2010 09:37 PM

okay, I've come to a conclusion. (Oh, and I got my cable back today) It's almost time for my board exam, so what the heck, why not get it turned back on. I think I was disciplined enough to do without it for so long while I was in school.:)

But back to my conclusion. I was watching a documentary about UFOs, and I don't understand why people believe that aliens are visiting this planet. Oh, and then they're saying that some people think they have the ability to travel at the speed of light.:rolleyes: And I'm assuming that the speed of light remains the ultimate speed limit, despite the appeal of Star Trek. I mean, even though I'm excited about seeing Skyline this weekend, I know something like that would never happen. Space is too vast, plus what people don't get is the faster someone travels, the more mass they acquire. Like, if you're at rest on Earth, then your mass is what you would measure it to be based on your weight. How can a ship travel at the speed of light? I just can't see how, because if we wanted to travel at the speed of light, it would take rockets of mind-boggling power to accelerate a reasonably sized interstellar spacecraft to even 10% the speed of light. If anything, since their mass would rise so dramatically just like anything else, I'd say at the most, (if they have the technology people think they have) they wouldn't be able to travel at anymore than about 1% of the speed of light. Not with that much mass build up. Uh uh, no way.

The Large Hadron Collider is possibly the scariest and most awesome/intriguing thing I've ever learned of.

Actually CG there are some interesting theories that might permit apparent superluminal travel, if not in fact.

What if our solar system had formed elsewhere in the Milky Way galaxy...like closer to the center? Hmmm....http://l.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/i/mesg/emoticons7/39.gif
