Who says you can't eat that bit? I think it's just the bit most people don't eat. Can't you just break it off anyway?shanshan310 said:
Don't worry, I think he's overreacting. Expedited shipping can take around 2 weeks using the carrier it's with from Amazon, it has barely been 11 days. I've had that carrier leave one of my parcels on a dock for 6 days before moving it on. Nothing to be alarmed about.shanshan310 said:
I wish they could've licensed the Benny Hill theme for when you ran around naked in SR2. I hope you can do that in 3 as well.Choc said:one of the funniest things in Saints Row 3 is when tehylolstart singing songs in the car
Had a quick go of it last night, up to the bit where your first hideout is Shaundi's ex-boyfriend's place. Shame I can't run it at all-ultra settings at full res, but I still had a blast anyway. Hopefully the latest Catalyst drivers and maybe a patch or two down the track from Volition will help me get there. Still looks REALLY fucking good, too.

Welp, I really messed up everything in that post.
Damn. Looks like the following issues apply to me:vaelic said:
5# Saints Row: The Third Freezes
If you have a Quad Core processor Open up task manager and click the Saints Row The Third executable. Now set the affinity to use only cores 0 and 1 or simply run the game in two cores to resolve the random freezes and crashes.
8# Saints Row: The Third Low Frame Rates (FPS Fix)
You can tweak the graphics variables in the ini configuration file below to squeeze all performance from your machine.
Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\saints row the third\display.ini
14# Slow Loading Or Stuck At Loading Bug Fix
Open up Steam.
Go to Library and right-click on Saints Row The Third and click on Properties.
Click on the tab Local Files.
Click Verify Integrity of Game Cache.
Go! play the game.
But, I think new Catalyst drivers are due today (15th in the US) so maybe that will bring some Crossfire/AMD-specific improvements as well. Shit about 4-core PCs though, you'd think they'd accommodate for that given that pretty much no-one with a semi-decent rig runs dual-core.

Need to buy a new car. This one is taking a piss out of my savings.
In the last 6 months, I've spent more than 2000 bucks getting it fixed. Parts replaced: alternator, brake pads, brake booster, drive belt, fuel pump, water pump, and some more that I can't even recall.
Now the gearbox is fucked.
FML. I was going to get a new one in February after coming back from vacation but I guess it has to be done now.
Looking at a toyota trade-in deal. They are giving minimum 2k on any old car. Don't think I can get more than 2.5k on my car anyhow.
Any recommendations? Budget 12k-15k max.

What platform?
I liked Oblivion but was disappointed following Morrowind, thought F3 was pretty decent but only played through it once, and I absolutely love Skyrim. On PC the UI is sloppy and the performance strangely poor in weird places, but everything is improved from Oblivion, save for some cities being smaller and some of the questlines (seemingly) smaller. But the world as a whole and the plethora of quests are just a lot more interesting.

Just started Dance With Dragons. Loved Game of Thrones, didn't like Clash of Kings until the last 200 or so pages, Storm of Swords was AMAZING, but then Feast for Crows was nothing short of shit. Honestly at this point I just think there are too many characters. Feels like he might have bitten off more than he could chew?
Really struggled to get through Feast for Crows. At times I just had to put it down half way through a chapter.
So many shit chapters from Cersei's point of view. And Brienne is just the worst character. "I'm so ugly! But I can fight people! But I'm so ugly!"
Probably a combo of things. Not sure he thought he was going to get this many books, so aRezbit said:
lot of the people he kills off, i'm not sure he means too.
He has as many plot lines going when i stopped reading, as Wheel of Time, and thats in it's 15,000 page range now or something.
He drifts for long periods of time, then just SNAPS conclusions. I think he thinks it's a great story telling mechanism, keeping the reader guessing! but.... to some degree its just frustrating.
I could go on, i think it has a whole bunch of massive flaws. But others don't, or can over look them. And it's all personal. I personally think Wheel of Time is the ultimate in epic story telling, and would have read the series 20 odd times. Others would call me insane for that point.

winter is only just coming now.
Maybe he never meant for the series to get this successful and now feels like he has to stretch it out or something. Thing is, having his main GoT characters fudge around while he tells these inconsequential side stories (seriously, what have Brienne, Davos or the Dornish actually added to the story that couldn't have been done off-screen?) is frustrating, like trying to watch a series where whole episodes are nothing but filler.
Also, Aegon, Daario, Jon Connington, Doran, Arianne, the Sand Snakes, Davos, Theon and every last one of the ironborn (even the children) all need to die in a fire for bogging down the story with their stupid bullshit. Preferably at the hands of Melisandre. Especially Aegon.

Aren't they tied to your save, though?commanderdeek said:So uhhh, anyone want to give me their pokewalker? I think I lost mine

TIL choc is still choc
I love the Wheel of Time but personally at least Martin's political machinations are still interesting (if you can put aside wanting to know what happens next in the interesting bits). Jordan's politicking was awful, I would skip multiple chapters on a second read they were so damn boring.giri said:

They're bringing back Big Brother? Oh God, why? Why can't they let that corpse just stay dead? It's utterly worthless without the uncut stuff anyway and even then, it's 98% just bogans sitting around scratching their arses. If I wanted to see that, I'd just go down to the Gold Coast >:-(
Won't disagree, but if you haven't read the WoT FAQ, you probably don't realise how much you probably over looked. There is so much ridiculous detail in WoT. Jordon was long winded, but i think most people would feel like they could re-create most of his cities and be fairly historically accurate.commissar said:

Also, I may or may not have owned this at some stage in my life:
Agro Soar was by Melbourne House / Beam Software
My favourite Boris' Breakfast Club memory was them spending ten minutes devoted to watchiing some guy play Defender of the Crown on the Amiga. That was amaaaaaaazing.
And was just one of their other 2D platform games with the main sprite changed for the Australian market

I once had a drawing I did of Agro shown on cartoon connection. From memory I think I won a prize pack of some sort. I was king of the quadrangle that week.
