Jman Posted Monday at 03:52 AM Share Posted Monday at 03:52 AM Does my bench press count if it was done on a functional trainer and not the old fashioned bench and barbell? I mean it was solid weight, 320lbs, and I feel it, but it’s probably easier than the barbell bench. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunStarHero Posted Monday at 06:22 PM Share Posted Monday at 06:22 PM Cannot wait to see how Xbox fumbles adding Halo to other consoles. Ideally, they would add something polished to offer these new players but both MCC and Infinite are fucked up messes. Maybe they are good enough for a general audience to dip their toes in before ultimately playing campaign, a handful of multiplayer matches, and moving on for good, but Halo has been fumbled for longer than it was ever on top. Time after time, Microsoft and co have dropped the ball with the franchise. Pathetic player retention for their last 3 major games, embarrassing launches, bizarre decisions like stopping the Doom x Halo crossover and Helldivers style Halo game, refusing to release a poor quality Halo show until the dumpster fire on Paramount showed up and was somehow acceptable before getting canned after 2 seasons, Hunt the Truth, mocking fans for trying to fix the games, mocking concerns over excessive microtransactions, wasting hundreds of millions of dollars developing half a game, and the list goes on and on. At this point I just want to see what fucked up decision they have up their sleeve for putting Halo on non Xbox and PC platforms. Even bringing Halo to PC has been largely terrible with a lot of issues never resolved. I could talk about this for days but Microsoft is just so fucking stupid it's amazing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, reading your post is the first I had heard of Halo being on PC. I was more of less more concerned with Nintendo working with Microsoft and the pens getting in the way Ugh, it previews the post but links you to the beginning of the thread. I don't remember this happening before but it's in this thread, second to last page Edited Monday at 07:04 PM by André Toulon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, reading your post is the first I had heard of Halo being on PC. I was more of less more concerned with Nintendo working with Microsoft and the pens getting in the way Halo has been on PC since 2003, but outside of bad ports of the first two games, there wasn't anything official nor of note until MCC launched on Steam and Windows Games in 2019. They added Reach to MCC and added games to the PC port of MCC as they went along. Halo 2 somehow got so busted you could fire certain projectiles into the floor and kill other players instantly, including shotguns to the floor. They fixed that but never fixed gamertag spoofing or the onslaught of cheating that comes with PC stuff, nevermind smaller issues like joining matches with the teams visually flipped but only for you (i.e. you see all enemies as friends and all friends as enemies) and god knows how many other, seemingly minor issues that just pile up over time. Wanna play co-op on Xbox with your friend on PC? Fuck you! Not allowed lol As for Nintendo and Microsoft, it'll be interesting. I expect Microsoft to start passing out their mascots like candy soon, though, and between Nintendo and Sony, someone is gonna make Microsoft tighten the fuck up on their games. I mean Halo coming to Playstation and Switch? Insanity but if it were to ever happen who could have guessed it'd be shitty, half-working ports. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blazing Puck Posted Tuesday at 11:19 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 11:19 PM So I guess something is going around because is calling in sick. Clearly I caught it but I never call off unless I know for certain that I'm getting laid that day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seight Posted Wednesday at 12:35 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 12:35 AM There was still bread and milk at Dollar General earlier so clearly they didn't market this winter storm as well as the one that had all the snow. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Insipid Posted Wednesday at 12:49 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 12:49 AM (edited) Just got my car inspected and fixed for 900 bucks. I imagine next year's inspection will be significantly more expensive thanks to the retarded ass tariffs. My state may get rid of annual inspections in response to increasing prices, thus making the roads more dangerous. 🙄 Edited Wednesday at 12:51 AM by Insipid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

naraku360 Posted Wednesday at 08:32 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 08:32 PM Been stuck in a crossroad of not knowing whether I'm on some spiritual separation ritual with a soulmate or if she ghosted me. Ongoing for about 2 years. Appears to be ghosted. I'm cursed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't manage to do more than 20 seconds of personally forced disdain. I can't hate her and it's pissing me the fuck off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
