  1. First day of Winter, shortest day of the year, end of the Mayan calendar and nothing unusual happened on 12/21/2012. Yup, we survived. Also Gangnam Style made over 1 billion views in YouTube on this day!

      Get back to work your guys. Discuss yourselves via PM next time.

  2. Looks like Texas remains in the US after a petition of its secession got rejected by the White House. Well it took way too long for a response though.

  3. If Fallout 1, 2 & Tactics are free, maybe some other websites should have it for a temporarily free download other than GOG, particularly on Steam.

      Finally got lucky this time and got all three Fallout freebies. At the end of the day in the US and EuroAsia, the servers are seemingly more speedy.

      GOG.com & CD Projekt RED with their DRM-Free philosophy. <3

  4. Who will bet to have Brazil to win the 2014 FIFA World Cup? I do.

      The team that referees help to get to the semi-finals, you mean? The host *always* gets such a bonus.

      Well, to be fair, Brazil was missing three key players against Germany. But yeah, Brazil was just average this WC.

  5. So much for gas prices skyrocketing in CA due to short supply from troubling refineries.

  6. One week left before the end is there and CA is already having earthquakes. Black Friday Doomsday deals next week = imminent.

      I wish the time machine should have saved us all.

  7. Another hot scorching day in Southern CA for the 7th day in a row. I am tired of triple-digit degree heat.

  8. It's official. PSY's Gangnam Style passed Bieber's Baby to become the most watched music video in YouTube, now with over 805 million views.

      I am about to say Adele's Skyfall is ten times more worth listening than Gangnam Style. Skyfall IMO is my favorite song of the year.

  9. I was surprised that Skyfall got 5 Oscar nominations. Sad thing, Activision is no longer publishing and developing 007 games anymore due to poor ratings and sales.

      A good movie-game combination of styles can be seen in the Metal Gear Solid series, for example.

      I highly doubt the 007 game series has ended.

      Where there are blockbusters, there are games. Mostly bad games, but still games.

  10. Today's my 27th birthday on the 27th with 27 reasons why I had a rare dream of the future last night which is similar to a fringe event.

      The actors say that there *might* be a movie in the pipeline.

      PurpleGaga27

      The plot and drama are so boring that I highly doubt there will be a movie as the real conclusion to Fringe.

  11. LG's 16x Blu-Ray writer, the fastest BR drive in the world to surpass an average 16x DVD writer. I've been wanting to get one but Blu-ray isn't common much on PCs and Tablets lately.

      Yes. Luckily.

  13. Looks like Apple's new iPad3 is another unnecessary release with no quad-core performance, a huge hard drive, a high resolution LED screen and no new 3D technology without the use of glasses.

  14. There's a good chance that the San Antonio Spurs will win the 2012 NBA Championship despite the shortened NBA lockout season and they're already on a 18 game postseason winning streak.

      Well, now the Spurs have tied the 2001 LA Lakers for 19 consecutive postseason wins and one more win will bring the Spurs to history.

    3. PurpleGaga27

      PurpleGaga27

      The Spurs 20-game winning streak comes to a dramatic end with a Game 3 loss to the OKC Thunder.

    4. PurpleGaga27

      PurpleGaga27

      So much for a 20-game winning streak. The Spurs have lost four a row and are eliminated by the rising and domination OKC Thunder and they are headed to the NBA Finals. What went wrong?

  15. I was going to watch The Dark Knight Rises this weekend, but due to the mass incident in Colorado USA and security issues, I going to pass on watching it until things get settled.

      They probably wouldn't have been allowed into the cinema. That's the whole irony of mass shooters, they are the ones who don't obey the rules.

      It gets even more weird when I read the first reviews, IT'S THE FIRST OVERRATED GAME OF 2013!!! Well... SCII: HotS will follow suit to this.

  18. One more stunning win for the SA Spurs to get their 5th NBA championship along with T-Mac, and King James really needs a comeback....

      Sorry Spurs, you came up short. Heat win! Back 2 Back, LeBron Finals MVP again.... just like I said ;)

    3. PurpleGaga27

      PurpleGaga27

      I bet you stayed awake to watch the late game, Sonic. I guess my early guess of Heat winning again is a good one. Not only a back 2 back Final MVP for King James but also a back 2 back season MVP.

    4. Sonic

      Stay awake? Its the middle of the afternoon here in NZ ;) The game started at 1PM here (NZ Time).

       

      LeBron is the best player in the NBA, he proved it last year, cemented it this year. **** all the doubters and haters.

  19. I can't believe the Motor City (Detroit) has filed for bankruptcy, the biggest city in the USA to have done that. Maybe it's time for Robocop to save the city.

      Ghost city? Population in the Motor City had decreased dramatically since the 1950s. That place hasn't been safe for decades; lots of crime over there and services were struggling.

      The problem with countdowns like this, is that EA will just change the date to screw with everyone. :P

  21. IDK if you guys have read and heard it over the weekend, but it's getting buzzling out there. I hope the NBA do the right thing by expelling the worst team owner in the world of sports (and sell the team) because the one lesson we all know is that racial discrimination is absolutely not tolerated in all sports leagues. I may be a Clippers fan and still loving Lob City but Sterling is ruining his team's playoff run and reputation for good.

      I just found out Donald Sterling has been voted the most hated man in America: http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/05/29/mosthatedmanescore-idUSnPn5x4DZj+86+PRN20140529

    4. PurpleGaga27

      PurpleGaga27

      I can't believe Sterling has lied about not giving up the lawsuit and the new ownership of the team. He's definitely lost his mental way.

  22. Even as of this time, I cannot afford to buy and download a game over 2GB. Over 2GB must force to ask for a disc, especially for those users still using slow Internet connections. Bigger game sizes don't deserve to be downloaded, especially at 30GB like Max Payne 3.

  24. Been wanting to use a Eurostile Next font for a C&C mod, but unfortunately, the six-year old font used in Deus Ex HR is rare to get, and it's expensive to buy and download as a font pack seen in some websites. I wish someone here would know where to get this font for free.

      Don't know it. I've found some variations, but not an accessible Eurostile Next. The idiot that made it charges $1000 dollars for it and tries to take down any free mirror he finds.

      Just as I predicted. Lin was shut down and a non factor in the Heat win 120-88 http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/recap?gameId=320223014

    3. PurpleGaga27

      So much for Lin-sanity and I was going to say that too. Even though the Knicks got pwned yesterday, they also got stunned by the Nets and Hornets earlier.
