LMAO!!! But you had to do it, the game was impossible otherwise!!

For those of you that do not know, Syfy has teamed up with Trion Worlds to create something truly unique. It is called Defiance. Defiance is a TV series and it is also a MMO shooter game. Events that happen in the tv series will affect the game and events in the game will affect the tv series.
First lets look at the show:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4BJN2ssm8QgIt already has my interest. It looks good, has potential.. and now look at this quote from an announcement made back on 05/21/2012 with some info on the impressive group of people that are working on this project:
http://community.defiance.com/en/2012/05/21/defiance-pilot-production-begins/
That sounds like a great combination of talent and now my expectations are pretty high.
Now lets look at the game:

It looks like a mix of Borderlands with Resident Evil's 3rd person perspective. Could be good. I'll have to sign up for the beta.
Defiance is set to premiere Monday, April 15, 2013 at 9:00 p.m. on the Syfy channel. Defiance the game will be released April 2013 for the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360.

Oh, they're still buried deep within the gallery.

Super Test

That reminds me of RBI baseball for the NES. If you held down (or was it up?) while you pitched, the ball would hit the plate and would result in a strike every time. It was so cheap. Me and my brothers would get pissed at each other.

I think that was the issue with any Sports game during that era.. the poor controls due to the limited technology made some of these games so ridiculously hard that sometimes it actually required a little bit of luck to win. I think that is why in a lot of these games there was one tactic that worked flawlessly to where you could win easily if you found out how to exploit it.
I remember in Joe Montana's Sports Talk Football, on offense you could run the halfback pass and it would result it a bomb to the endzone for a TD every time. Then on defense you could run the punt block on every down and you would stop them easily, even block the punt great percentage of the time. The would result in football scores of 109-0 .

Super Mario RPG was great. That final battle against the sword was hard.. but nothing compared to the final fantasy styled bonus boss you can find in the game. It was the equivalent of the Emerald weapon from FFVII. I could never beat it.
 
Legend of Dragoon was an awesome game.
 
The hardest boss battle for me was the very first boxer in the game "George Foreman's KO Boxing"
 

 
So f*cking difficult. I rented this game for a weekend from blockbuster when I was a kid. It made me rage so bad. It felt so good to beat the first boxer. I could never beat the second guy. So damn hard.
 
Sephiroth final battle of FFVII

Have any of you seen some of the multiple exclusive Japan only oreos?
 
Heres a link that shows only some of them:

They also have rectangular oreos and a variety of flavors. There are even some with a completely different kind of cookie part with no chocolate varieties. The US market is being screwed by not getting these.

Who owned an Atari 2600? Who's even played Atari? If you're an old man like me, what where you're favorite games?!

Defender was my all time favorite... I didn't know what the hell was going on, but flying the ship and blasting lasers was so cool as a kid.

Yar's Revenge! That little line that followed you around and killed you if you let it touch you... UGH!! I had nightmares about that thing...

I just played Hardcore TDM... the only reason I don't like it is I cant wildly lob grenades since you can kill your own teammates... but the damage increase to all guns is wicked. One shot for the SWAT-556... I went 33-11 and somehow my team still lost because someone went 0-21... 0-21!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
COD only allows 20 clips... I got most my kills in it. Im using the PDW-57

 

 
Now that I have Ghost permanently unlocked and supressors on many of my firearms. This game has become a lot more enjoyable.

I haven't watched the actual show. I had a friend on PSN that had a deep hatred for Bronies. First time I heard the word Brony I thought it was a type of Brownie intended for or by "Bros". It was hard to avoid Pony Yiff on e621 & I decided to block it since it distracted me from what I was doing.
 
Prior to that though I had gotten myself hooked onto Pony Parodies by Hot Diggedy Demon.

So far no Mini Series Finale.
Also since I can't post the entire 5 episodes & then some here are the 2 Panel Cartoons.
Warning they contain spoilers.

  I need some video of this.

Nooo!! ;_; They must try anyways!. What if they found a peice of amber in the ice in Siberia or Antarctica?!  There must be a way!

Certainly we all had childhood heroes, or people we looked up to as a youngster... Real or ficition who were you awe struck by in your youth?

As if it was no big surprise Macho Man Randy Savage was one of my heroes as a kid. I went against the grain with Hulkamania. Savage became my favorite wrestler out of my sheer hate for the Nature Boy Ric Flair... I hated how he always won when I was a kid, and when Savage kicked his ass for the World Heavyweight Championship, he became my favorite, and his crazy persona solidified that throughout his career. Plus Miss Elizabeth was one of my very first childhood crushes!

 
As I was growing up my parents introduced me to Superman at a young age, I had many VHS tapes of the old cartoon. I was always enamored with the Man of Steel. I had pajamas, a punching bag, and other various memorabilia. A lot of people dislike Superman, but he always has a fan in me. lol

Star Wars music was always epic.
 
Indiana Jones was pretty good too:
 

 
Even tho its not a movie, Battlestar Galactica has some of the best scores I've ever heard on television:

I must have watched this movie 700 times as a kid. The idea of reading a book makes you part of the story appealed to my bookish nature

Big Weed and Big Pot sounded dumb next to Big Oil and Big Tobacco... BIG HEMP FTW!

Yes, getting the ball rolling will hurt the Mexican cartels, we could undercut them in price... At the same time we could allow their product in legally... and tax the shit out of it.
 
Kinda like Bombay Sapphire... good Gin, but since New Amsterdam is made in New York, its only $20 for a big bottle and its almost as good as the $60 of bombay... Tito's vodka is another great example... US made, awesome quality, way cheaper than imported vodka.

The main reason mental health wasn't as much of an issue back in the day is because pharmaceutical companies didn't have as many drugs as they do now. When I was a kid I had severe anxiety and some social issues. A bit of therapy and I coped with my own problems. If I had these same issues now, I would have been given 3 different medications: anti-anxiety, anti-depressents and anti-social phobia. And then I would be given therapy sessions and then end up on SSI for the rest of my life because of the side effects caused by all these medications and the lack of interest in completing school or getting a job because I would be vegetabled out by the meds.

A gun ban is just a "big government" agenda. We can talk about assault rifles all day but if you go to the FBI's website and look at the numbers, more people are killed by knifes, hammers, and even hands and feet. These individual categories out number ALL rifles put into its own category.
Another interesting note is that from 2008-2011 the number of homicides have gone down. The US ranks 28th in the world in gun violence per capita. What Piers Morgan won't tell you is that in the UK violent crime is 5 times higher per capita than in the US.
Timothy McVeigh single handedly killed more Americans in one event and didn't use a single firearm. You can still buy fertilizer to this day.
People are quick to act on emotion while throwing any kind of logic out of the window... That's why we have the patriot act, that's why the gov can tap your cell with no warrant, and that's why they are trying to restrict guns now. Any freedom we are willing to give up, Uncle Sam will be happy to take it away from you weather it's Democrat or Republican.

I see, I'll have to try quick scoping from now on. I was hip firing my shotgun most of the time. Maybe quickscoping will give me those one shot kills.
 
btw, try using a laser sight on bf3 with any gun. It drastically improves hip firing. SKS with laser sight and hip firing at medium to long range can be devastating to an opponent. Check out some aggressive recon bf3 videos on youtube. Even bolt action sniper rifles with a laser sight can be brutal in bf3.

COD tends to throw realism out the window. If you pay a little closer attention to the kill cams, you will notice that there are a lot of times people start firing before they transition into ADS. Hip fire is impossible at mid range on BF3, but its not an issue on COD. Try the quick draw grip on your assault rifles, the shotgun might help too. I don't use quickdraw for the R870, because its ADS is pretty quick. You're bullets will fly where your crosshair is at until you go into ADS.. Plus the laser sights also aid hip fire.

In MW1, I use to run the MP5 with the steady aim perk that increased the accuracy even more from hip. I was inspired to do so after watching this guy wreck my face and whole team by running around hip firing the MP5 before people could line up a shot. He always stayed in motion. I adopted the tactic and became very good at it. Due to map design, and the watering down of gun damage, it doesn't work as well, but it still works for me with the shotgun.

Hell yeah, that all sounds awesome. The damn red hit indicators always annoy me. Half the time when I see one to the side, I rotate to that side just to see the hit marker rotate a bit with me and not give me any real indication where I'm being hit from.
