Skyrim wasn't that bad of a TES game. The only thing I didn't really enjoy about it was the end of the Dark Brotherhood questline.

Damnit, I was trying to include THIS post to make that previous post worth something because I figured it would end up as something like that and I hadn't checked dates before posting. :v:
I think The Big Bang Theory is an awful show
I think the Dreamcast was the last great console.

Building off of this, I really don't like how most consoles these days are trying to become all-in-one entertainment systems. I don't want to spend $300+ on a video game console that can also play DVDs, Blu-Rays, browse the Internet, access Netflix or Hulu Plus, read the latest world news, play music, or any of those other features. I think that's the main reason why they're getting more and more expensive these days. Remember when all you had to do was put the disc/cartridge into the slot, turn the system on, and it booted up your game straight away without having to navigate through a single menu unless you had to change system settings for whatever reason?
[QUOTE=milkandcooki;44210334]I think that sexuality in the 21st century literally does not matter.
I mean, let's ignore the obvious fact that gay/trans/queer people are getting fucking killed or denied rights just for the sake of my argument. My point is that whatever gets your dick hard shouldn't affect your personality, lifestyle, or anything, really. This isn't my way of telling people who are flamboyant to fuck off, by the way.
Like, when I tell people that I've had boners over dudes [I]and[/I] girls, they're like "oh, you don't look the type." I really don't get that. I should be able to fuck whoever I want and people shouldn't judge me for it.[/QUOTE]
As long as I don't hear about it, and it doesn't harm anyone or anything, I'm okay with it.

Thats what I absolutely love about modern consoles though. Would I spend more money on a DVD player or a Blu-ray player?
No, because I don't even own/rent lots of disks anymore, but it's still good to have a device that can play that stuff if I ever need it. Would I spend money on a new sound system? No, I love music but with a PS3, I can just play songs from my tv and I don't really care that it doesn't have the best sound quality. Same thing with pretty much every other thing the PS3 offers. It's just nice to have all that in the same device, yknow

Except everything you can do with a console you can do with a computer, including hook it up to your TV like a console, complete with a controller. Not to mention the fact a PC of the same quality as the console would cost considerably less.
It's just not necessarily as simple to build, hook up, and navigate as a console for anyone that doesn't have some sort of enthusiasm for PC's. Consoles are relatively more "plug n' play".
It's not why consoles are getting more expensive. It'a a natural evolution using what's available, and most people DO use the media functionality. Also, Bluray is the future. IMO DVD needs to leave and BD (right acronym I think) needs to take over, for both games AND movies.
[QUOTE=DaysBefore;44205267]People who treat FP, especially SH, like High School Debate Club are fucking morons. I'm so sick of seeing the "omg logical fallacy/strawman!!! Entire opinion invalidated" hand wave
No idea why people expect so much out of dumb nerds that can barely handle light, friendly discussion let alone an argument[/QUOTE]
I couldn't agree hard enough. The fucking Strawman term is thrown around way too much and often incorrectly.
It is just a fucking buzzword at this point. The term holds about as much weight and meaning in an argument as the idea of a Strawman itself.
I don't care for Twitch Plays Pokemon.

I go to a thread to talk about my own personal experience with something related to the thread? "Nice anecdotal evidence", "Show me statistics that prove that", etc
I mean what happened to posting about stuff just like you'd have a normal conversation with someone irl?[/QUOTE]
but that isn't sensationalist enough tho
It has to be about ongoing conflict/minority rights/political disputes or anything else really easy to take a side on

And such discs were more aimed for backups and that kind of stuff similar to why tapes are still used. Maybe the price would go down if it's more common as a wild guess. If anything, we need faster disc reading than larger disc sizes. Have you tried reading or writing a CD recently?

It would also be nice to not have the disc drive sound like a jet turbine whenever it's reading/writing.
The Wii U is great and would be getting more attention if everybody wasn't circlejerking over hardware.
Cartridges are superior to disks.

Disks are too slow for the amount of data we stream, especially in the future. The new generation consoles and upcoming PC games can go crazy with advanced graphical features, and there is a deliberate push in the movie industry to move to higher framerate, higher resolution technology.

In this day and age it seems silly that we still divide people into such obvious groups, like "the gays." Stuff gets people off. That's all there is to it really.
A thousand years from now there will be no guys and no girls, just wankers. Sounds great to me.

But I dont want to have to hook up my pc every time I want to see stuff on my TV screen. Not just that, but exclusive games as well as the price of most consoles (you can get them for way cheaper than a PC that can run the same stuff unless you buy them at release. Personally, I don't mind owning "old" consoles like the ps3, and I'm probably only gonna buy a ps4 when the next gen is out) makes consoles a really good option too
Obviously not saying you should choose a console over a PC, just saying why "all in one" consoles are pretty good
Guys I think it's time I come out

Though I'll admit the lyrics suck for both of those.
In a lot of countries in europe it's still the 90s, with all the rave culture and fashion sense that comes with in.
I hate it when people use facecams, especially in random games like Dota or Hearthstone.

I refuse to watch any stream with people talking or facecams. What the fuck ever happened to just streaming gameplay? Unless that person is Mark Bussler, I am not interested in hearing or seeing them.

I prefer cities without gigantic glass buildings and electronics everywhere, it feels better for some reason, I guess I enjoy old architecture more.

I hate it when people add "For some reason" to super obvious things

FFFFFFUCK YOU it bothers me immensely
