I played some more BLOPS II this evening and I've never Rage Quit so far in my life.

Any worse and I'd lose my shit, break into a GS and leave the disc on the counter on my way out the door.

Probably with a few gouges in it from my keys or some shit just to narrow down my hate for the game right now.

Almost to the 50% mark in Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. Loving every minute of it. Looks like I might finish it tomorrow night or Saturday. Might get back into some Tomb Raider before I begin my very first JRPG adventure with Final Fantasy X.

Euro Truck Simulator is fucking awesome. Found out you could stream radio stations from Europe! :lebron: Also, I named my trucking company Prestige Worldwide. :rofl:

Car was in my blind spot. :shifty:

Who knew these trucks can't take sharp corners quickly. Happened about 3 times. :yoa:

And you gave me shit for quitting the last time I played with you and Vermillion. That game is all sorts of horrible. Isn't Vermillion only a PS3 guy? How does he not have PS+?

Although I had a match of Battlefield like that last night. Played with BossFan and that Relic guy. It was as if the other team could see through walls and every one of us was showing up on their mini-map, regardless of being spotted. The other team would converge on us for no damn reason when there was no way they could've know one of us was somewhere. And it seemed like they had twice as many players as us with as many times as we were being shot in the back. It literally felt like a CoD game.

Good-natured ribbing, good sir.

Also, Vermillion's gaming on PC as well as PS3 and only really plays BLOPS II at the moment (when not working or taking care of his fam).

Lack of a gaming slush fund to GET PS+ is the result of that.

Bad server was bad, I suppose.

And if it was on mine, that's on EA's end with their East server.

STEP 1: Sell Call of Crappy to Best Buy for 100% trade-in bonus.

STEP 2: Buy 3 months of PS+ and get some good games.

It wasn't on your server. That had expired by that point I believe.

I bet Vermillion bought all the maps/Season Pass for BlOps2 though? That money could've went towards PS+ and expanded his libray exponentially. Why aren't you being a good friend and explaining this to him?

He's a good guy. I would love for him to play Bf3 with us.

He had BF3 before but stayed with COD because he digs the faster pace (tried the Close Quarters sell on him; didn't work) and as paintball player, he relates to it more.

As long as I've known him, he's been as bad as we are with our gaming habits currently but has had to dial it back due to having a family and just not having ANY time to play.

So when he does, it's COD time.

Otherwise, he'd be in the thick of it with us probably.

Gotta support my bros, duder. :aso:

Spy is a bastard-and-a-half.

But you know this already.

I agree, except when it comes to that game lol.

It's probably not a good thing that I bought AC II a few days ago but I felt the need to jump back in before AC IV hits.

So far it's WAY more fun than AC I.

Have you played the series outside of 1 before?

If you had an Xbox and a Gold Live membership you could've gotten it for FREE. :smug:

I saw a video of this game on IGN and I thought it looked really good. Reminded me a lot of Shadow Complex. I never played the original. Maybe others have a better feel for the quality of this remake.

If they keep anything from the original, it won't be anything like Shadow Complex. Flashback was more of a puzzle game. Although, this is a peculiar remake if it's just an update of the original. I can beat that game in like an hour. It's great, I just don't know how successful it will be anymore.

I have to start playing MAG or my $1 will go to waste. :runaway:
