GO PLAY IT NOW! This game is one of the most underrated titles out there. It's sad that it did so poorly considering how great of a job it does of getting across the message it's trying to send. This game is literally just a giant middle finger to modern military FPS games and the people who play them and on that basis alone is one of my favorites even though I have no desire whatsoever to put myself through the depression playing this game causes.

FTFY. These days it's rare for craziness like this to happen. When you're young and can get away with it it's one thing but I think I might literally die if my life was still like this now that I'm in my mid 20's. I really would love to put all these stories into a blog stylized a bit like Books of Adam or Hyperbole & a Half, but I lack any kind of artistic skill needed and technical know-how to make that happen. [spoiler2]If you've never read Books of Adam, stop what you're doing and go do that now. It's fantastic.[/spoiler2]

Raz you in particular are going to have your mind blown once you finish it. People love to psychoanalyze this game.

Oh wow been awhile since I've posted a new story. Maybe people will read it this time! That one time Becca was sad. So it's a pretty well established fact that myself and my friends were pretty much the worst type of kids. We did some really stupid things on our but as always when you mix Zakk into the situation everyone in close proximity gets exponentially dumber. I remember one night when I was 17 I was hanging out with Zakk and my friend Becca stopped by my house. She had just gone through a pretty rough break up and we were trying to cheer her up. Nothing seemed to be working so Zakk started thinking up ideas, or the closest thing Zakk can manage that resembles thinking. He finally came up with a plan or an impulse and told us all to get in Becca's car. This is how all Zakk's plans go, there is generally no end goal just spur of the moment instructions that might possibly lead to a desired outcome. We pulled out of my driveway and Zakk started barking directions at Becca. I was fairly relaxed at the time considering how much Zakk seemed to know where he was going. Oh how wrong I was. Fast forward to an hour later when I finally asked where exactly we were going only to have Zakk tell us "I have no fucking clue, TURN LEFT!" and we had never been so lost. We stopped at a construction yard to get our bearings and Zakk lept out of the car screaming "THERE'S ONE!" and Becca and I watched as he ran as fast as could and performed a diving headbutt onto a port-a-potty. His impressive dive bomb did little damage to the toilet so he got up and tried again with a drop kick. The toilet slowly tipped over onto a pile of lumber and Zakk bolted back to the car with a new instruction I always dread hearing, "FUCKING GO" Deal with it... So now we're heading in a random direction to get away from this little crime scene Zakk created only to get more lost all while Becca is going through a combination of hysterical laughter and depression. Becca decided to deliberately avoid Zakks directions which somehow managed to be counterproductive as we ended up in random neighborhoods. After driving through one for about 5 minutes Zakk spoke up. "Holy shit I know where we are! Stop the car this is Jaron's house." Zakk hopped out of the car and ran into the front lawn of the house we were stopped at, bent down, picked up something, and ran back into the car. "It's not really jaron's house FUCKING DRIVE" Zakk had convinced us to stop so that he could steal an old rusty wrought iron sign that read "THE CUBAS" from this random lawn. This happened about 9 other times that night. By the end of it the back seat of Beccas old Crown victoria was filled with: [*]A 2 foot tall porcelain dalmation [*]A large steel old fashioned milk container [*]Several newspapers [*]3 garden gnomes [*]A solar powered lawn light [*]One mangled bird feeder [*]Half a string of christmas lights [*]Tons more random insignificant lawn junk First up was to a house I knew was perfect for our escape. Fields where the lawn gnomes run in droves! we were so excited! We parked out front and looked at all the shiny lawn crap. There were animal statues, Giant globes that looked like christmas tree ornaments, but I knew what zakk would go for. He hopped out of the car and immediately went for a large fake bronze goose. He lifted it up to his chest and began awkwardly sprinting back to the car. Right as he was about to reach us his feet shot out from underneath him, he did half a backflip and fell on his face. He got up only to find everything in this yard was tied to a network of steel cord. Before he could manage to free the goose from the wire we noticed a light come on in the house. I yelled at zakk to get in but he made the brighter choice of climbing onto the hood of the car as it was faster. We drove down the block and let Zakk get inside the car before we made our last stop. The last stop we made on any given night, Waffle House. [spoiler2]For those of you that don't know. Waffle Houses are basically the south's equivalent of IHOP but they're open 24 hours a day and are a hotspot for drunks to gather after the bars close. Delinquent teenagers such as ourselves also frequent these places.[/spoiler2] We were all so excited to show our friends who worked there our spoils of the night so we made one more stop at a grocery store to put a plan of my own into motion. I told zakk and becca to wait in the car while I ran in. I came back out with 3 grocery bags and told them to get out of the car. I opened the bags to reveal 8 boxes of fruit by the foot. I told them it was time Becca's car stopped looking like a piece of shit and we spent the next 30 minutes using these fruit snacks to put sweet racing stripes onto her old shitkicker. Now we were ready... We started driving to the waffle house and we were almost there. SO CLOSE TO OUR GOAL! And of course something terrible had to happen... How close were we before the inevitable? Literally feet from safety... The flashing lights appeared in our rear view and all of us gave a collective "oh shit..." We got pulled over in the very place we were trying to get to. The cop that pulled us over parked in front of us as a second cop behind him blocked us in. "Oh shit oh shit oh shit oh shit..." The first officer started talking to Becca who was trying so hard not to break into crying hysterically as the second cop shined a flashlight into the back seat and gave the giant pile of junk suspicious looks. It turned out that they pulled us over for speeding but their interests quickly turned to the junk. They pulled us out of the car and sat us on the sidewalk and we watched as half a dozen of our friends watched through the waffle house windows as these cops poked around Becca's car. They came back to us and asked to search Zakk and myself (Can't blame them, have you seen us?) and started questioning Becca. The inevitable question came and I got nervous, "What's all this stuff in your backseat?" Becca handled it amazingly well and told the officer that she was helping my family move (which at the time was technically true), which he responded to by pulling the iron sign out of the back and looked at me while asking "You don't look like a Cuba to me..." I nearly pissed myself and then out of nowhere one of the waitresses came outside. It was April... DEAR GOD NO DO NOT LET APRIL SPEAK TO POLICE! She ran over to the second cop car where ne of the officers was sitting and taking notes and pulled a handful of sausages and uncooked bacon out of her apron. She held it up to the window and screamed "YOU LIKE THAT BACON PIGGIE!? OINK OINK!!!" I thought, "This is it... I'm going to a holding cell for the night..." but by some miracle the cops started laughing and gave Becca her speeding ticket and left it at that. They left us in the parking lot and we spent the next two hours eating and recapping the night. around 7 AM we finally left and headed back home. 15 minutes into our drive home it started pouring rain and "the new paint job" on Becca's car started melting all over the hood. We were stopped at a red light when she finally noticed it and she started crying her eyes out again. I immediately turned around to Zakk and said, "LOOK WHAT YOU DID! Good job cheering her up asshat!"

Make sure you put in the effort to unlock all the tables, chips, and decks. It opens up some hilarious bits. Venture table is best table.

I'm actually far less excited than I initially was for dragons maze. There are only 20 to 35 cards I really want from it and keep in mind that's spread across ten decks. I'm going to give it a month or two for single prices to stabilize and then buy the singles I'm after. Luckily aside from ral and melek not many seem like their going to be stupidly expensive. I might consider making a true gruul deck at some point to replace my werewolves since gruul isn't as terrible as it was thanks to a few new cards but that aside all I'm getting out of this is a bit more flavor for each of my guild decks.

Got all the items! To save everyone some frustration later on. To get the bounty for "Stealing a hand on the flip" you have to make someone fold after the fourth card is turned over and "stealing a hand on the flop" is the same thing but after the first 3.

Agreed the original Teen titans was super amazing but has anyone bothered to read the actual comics? They are insanely good, especially the story arcs centering around kid flash time traveling and being a prick.

Dragon's maze isn't out yet so you're Izzet deck can't be complete... What about dragonshift? Or Melek? Or Ral Zerek? TURN AND BURN!? I made a new prototype on tapped out recently. One day when I have an extra $300 to spend I'll finally have one of my dream decks. Link

HEY NINTENDO OF JAPAN STOP THINKING AMERICANS DONT LIKE EVERYTHING YOU MAKE! BRING BACK GOEMON http-~~-//www.youtube.com/watch?v=pEE66AMzGNg&fmt=18 If not for Conker's Bad Fur Day, this would be my absolute favorite N64 game. It was hilarious, the gameplay was fantastic, music was catchy, just all around awesome. Overseas apparently the Mystical Ninja franchise was almost as popular as Mario but never caught on enough over here for them to keep porting games.

So recently I finally ditched my old tv and second monitor for a small flatscreen TV that pulls double duty. Both have been working out great so far but managing what sound is coming from with screen is becoming a pain in the ass. Whenever I flip my TV to the channel that lets it act as a second monitor for my PC all sounds come out of the TV. I've googled my ass off to try and find a simple way to manage the audio and come up with nothing simple or feasible to use on the fly as needed. I just want to be able to have certain programs play sound through the PC speakers when told to while I have the TV running as a second monitor. Any suggestions?

I'll try to say this without spoiling too much but Spec Ops is supposed to follow every single bland boring military FPS trope. It's mechanically craptastic on purpose to get you in a certain frame of mind. Anyone who hasn't played it though it is a fantastic game and how awful and boring the mechanics are happen to be one of the reasons it's so good.

Hmmm... Maybe I'll start watching this again when Matt Smith dies a painful death and never comes back. My girlfriend and I stopped watching once he showed up. It was so bad we literally stopped watching in the middle of an episode after our stream stopped buffering. Maybe by some miracle Christopher Eccelston will be the doctor again.

I can definitely see some use for it in standard like disabling any activatable abilities on creatures. I really like hidden strings as well. Sad the cipher mechanic isn't really that great for most cards it got paired with.

Sorry for the double post, had to get around the 8 image limit. Just took a peak at the mono colored cards and theres some great things here as well. This last one has a ton of potential but very little for it in standard. In extended and legacy however this might allow for some ridiculous combos.

TONS of cards revealed today. Mostly the dozens of "meh" commons and uncommons that the the set will have but I did spot a few little gems here and there. I can't wait for these. My Golgari deck is going to get mean.
