Downloaded it. The art style looks disgusting, and I haven't had any interest in playing it after I went off. To be honest, I only played as long as I did because my friends were. I wanted to go on battlefield after a few missions.

I dont ever see this in Australia.  If so we'll just add the banned word and add either  Cunt or Bastard to the end of it.

I didn't know Australia was allowed swearing. I presumed the dictator of Australia would have banned them.

I have less than two weeks to find a roommate for the next semester

and instead I'm shitposting on sep7

You have your priorities right.

Couple weeks.


It ended because she gave me a choice, play less video games or she went. Well that was a no-brainer for me.

Since then, I've had no interest in having a girlfriend. Fuck 'em, I can do better by myself.

Im sure we'd have splitscreen but they are too busy pushing the 'importance' of graphics

They're pushing 60fps though.
The graphics have already taken a hit to get it how it is.

Everybody going to play Halo 5 is obviously going to play it for the plot and the 60fps.

Ew isn't Linda like nearly 50 at this point.

About 47, assuming she was six in 2517.

I'm waiting for the next halo book to be released in September.

I guess that counts.

Also COWPIE, to ensure he stays away.

I could never get past the first few minutes of FO1.

Vastly prefer the gameplay of the newer ones.

It takes more than a few mins to get into, silly. I hope you weren't expecting FO3/NV style of gameplay when you got it.

No, I knew what the gameplay was. But I thought it might be like ME1 where I can put up with not too great gameplay for story.

No such luck. I got them for free on GOG so I haven't lost anything.

I love when Americans think that all British people speak really posh.

I guess it's like when us Brits take on the average American as being a redneck with that southern accent that rick grimes imitates surprisingly well.

Considering that frame rate boosts how well the player is able to react to certain events, no, it is a major factor. And it's crucial in games when there is a lot happening, like Halo 5 is doing with it's bigger segments and massive (for a Halo game) worldspaces.

And, plus, 60fps is the standard for AAA games. If you can't achieve it, it makes the studio look bad. And many people find <60 to be unplayable, whereas not having splitscreen means you can't play with friends in real life. The comparison to XB1's original policies is worthless, as that actively stopped people playing the games for reasons not in their control; not many people won't be able to play because they can't play at te same time.

60 is the standard, and rightly so. It's intrinsically tied to how the player plays the game. It's not a question of muh pwetty gwafiks, it's a question of the flow of the game, an it's something you don't miss until it's gone. I went back to play some Reach campaign the other day and I eventually had to quit because the refresh rate was unbearable and made the game unenjoyable to play.

If you really want to know more, go watch, like, any TotalBiscuit video, because he pretty much destroys any argument against having 60.

[paraphrased from the SDCC panel]

"we looked at the numbers of splitscreen players to decide. It wasn't as minor as 1%, but it wasn't as major as 40%"

So yeah, not a majority. Not even close.

To move to England, you must have a job ready and speak basic English. No exceptions.

Or make vaccination mandatory regardless of personal belief. If people don't like it, they can go somewhere else.

Shit, I'd forgotten about him. He was pretty cool, too.

We should do the bank heist. It's double money until the 9th

I'm down for that
