Anyone play them? Battlefield 1 and 5 are a trip for anyone who is interested in immersing themselves into a WW1 or WW2 experience. Especially with a good headset. Would recommend for any of the bored.
I used to play a bit, but I'm at a spot in life where time is at a premium. So no. Ain't nobody got time for that.
Same. I used to be big on counter-strike and Halo... but my time is limited and it’s either I spend quality time with my family, go fishing, exercise, or play video games. Video games is last on the list.

I did all of the retail packaging, including fancy pants limited editions for many MS Studios, Bungie, Valve, EA titles (and others) over years. Halo 1, 2, 3, GOW 1, 2, Mass Effect, Forza etc. Some crazy stuff from an engineering & art perspective - no spared expenses. I have some sweet swag from all of that time including an ultra rare 1 of 100 Halo 2 launch "press release addition" that just doesn't exist in the private market. I'm sure I could get a pretty penny from some fan boy for that release alone (it's not even a game, it's just press art stills of Halo 2 concept art that they used to pimp the release date on all of the news channels etc). Master Chief Helmets, figurines, statues and lots of other crap too.
All of it is for sale because I couldn't care less about it. I'm just saving some of it because I know it's worth some cash. Anyone have any young kids that are into that sort of thing and want to buy them some cool presents, hit me up yo! I'll give you a DS discount. I'll even sell to Evo when I know the money was lifted from his mom's purse when she wasn't lookin'.

Even forum posters are one step above gaymers.
Fishing Forum posters are the lowest. Time to sign back up to gamefishin.com to see if there is still a pulse, that is the current bottom of the internet.
Bought a cheap PS4 to kill time last winter after not gaming for well over a decade. Red Dead Redemption 2 blew my mind. Very impressive game. Budget must have been astronomical to put that together.

I believe many games by being interactive are better for the the brain than most tv and films, and most people that scoff at games watch a lot of tv and films.

i still play quite a bit.. used to be a big PS fan and hated Xbox, then i bought an Xbox and likely wont buy a PS again... my PC will run anything i throw at it but i dont play games on it really, have a few times with Steam, mainly just use it to come here and read bullsh!t...
lately its just been Madden, COD MW, and UFC 3 (im ranked in the top 120 on that game), and sometimes some Forza and whatnot...
the Sniper Elite games were fun, Battlefield was fun until they made the last one, i dont really care for that one... really liked BF3 and 4..
never liked Halo..
i helped build the president of entertainments at Microsoft's house a long time ago, he led the team that made the Xbox and Zune and Windows devices and sh!t, i remember giving him sh!t about trying to compete in the video game console world, and that Sony would always rule it now that we are in the disc era... id say they did a pretty damn good job of getting into it...

Robbie Bach by chance? I used to work w/ Robbie - albeit from a step level distance. He's a really good dude and great leader.

yes, Robbie... his house was directly next door to the house my dad was doing (same company) who was the CFO of Microsoft...
yes hes a good guy, wife too, although shes kinda ditzy...
we were building a salt and pepper granite wall for the backside of the sport court against the driveway, and they wanted it extended down a ways, well the driveway went down a hill then a sharp 90 degree hook into the garage area, we had brought up how tight of a turn it was going to be if people needed to back out etc, her and the so called "architect" scoffed at me and Samphi (coworker) bringing it up, so we just said whatever and went a long... i talked to my dad about it and he agreed, the wall should be shortened and not that close to the hook in the driveway...
shortly after that she was backing out and ripped the front off her Lexus LX470, did serious damage...
she wanted it shortened after that...
rich people are weird...

It's always smart to tell the guy you're working for that his company is going to get their asses kicked by Sony.
Definitely a career-building move.

well after working on his house for 2 years you kinda build a relationship of sorts...
it was just 2 guys talking sh!t...
he knew what he was doing...
plus, he got the best craftmanship you could possibly get... when my dad was at Charter, he had one of the best teams in the entire company.. some people still work there (my brother, couple other guys) and some dont...
the level of craftsmanship and whatnot my dad provided was bar none the best in the state, probably why so many high profile people wanted him to do their houses, and would refuse others...

Wrong. Zune didn't suck and the store didn't suck. I still have my original that's going strong. It was a supply chain test device that was literally nuked for testing purposes BEFORE I even got it and it still will NOT fail after a decade. They are BOMB proof devices.
First to market wins. There is a reason we call it a Xerox instead of photocopy and Kleenex instead of facial tissue. Marketing and market share.
Zune was much too late to the party to be successful. The actual devices and service were TOP notch and head and shoulders above what Apple was doing at the time. It didn't matter, cuz' fanboys.

And Evo...rich people are not necessarily weird in true reality. They may seem like that to us, but to them it's just par for the course. Sometimes people have way more money than common sense. When rich house wives talk about or ask for things, they do it coming from a perspective of not realizing the true value of their idiotic ask or the true value of actual money. To them, money is a secondary consideration over aesthetic or even functionality. Change orders are of zero consequence. They simply don't care, because accountants pay for it all. They have no concept of actual money like we do, so they do not realize the impact of what they are asking for.
Poor people know the correct or easiest way of getting things done. Poor people can't afford to make mistakes and false starts. We gotta nail it on the first try, so we can be damned certain the plan is perfect before work begins.
If you want something done right on the first attempt and on time, have a poor and lazy person do it. They will find the simplest, most elegant cost effective solution possible....because poor and lazy.

You'd never be able to convince me spending time on PPS darkside is healthier than spending that time playing a game. To eachange their own. I'm just an 80s kid I guess.
I believe many games by being interactive are better for the the brain than most tv and films, and most people that scoff at games watch a lot of tv and films.
Most people I know that scoff at games also scoff at TV and film. It's because we find real life more interesting. At least in theory some people on this forum might actually go outdoors and fish so talking about fishing when you're stuck indoors not fishing is as close as you can get. Still posting on forums is to having a life as jerking off to internet porn is to sex.
Lol. Take a look at this guy who posts on the DS a lot talking about “real life”.

Disagree. The DS is way better than any game. Why? No game is going to tell you to go fvck yourself and then light yourself on fire. We will and that's a LOT more fun.
When a game makes a Rich G or an Evo character, I'll play it. Until then, I'd rather toss elbows with the real deal.
So in the end,
Go fvck yourself and light yourself on fire.
I'M THE FINAL BOSS HERE BITCHES!

Agreed, the ‘kid diddling’, ‘mass murdering’ guy trolling the sh!t out of this place throwing stones from his glass house is hilarious. Nice duplicity, stupid.

I thought you played Halo and other online games?! There are plenty of opportunities to be told to fuk off, get swatted etc. I'd venture to say the comment etiquette is pretty similar. Accept I don't have any way to virtually shoot you in the facenter and dip my nutsack o your corpse on the ds. I'm far too trash on console to tea bag after I kill and I don't want anyone revenge killing me after getting doxed. Like when Dan got doxed but worse.

First I was kidding. Second, no...I don't play any games and when I did, I never played on-line. Offline single player campaigns only. I'm not about to be verbally abused and teabagged by some 14 year old freak Korean kid from half way around the world. Like I said, ain't nobody got time for that.

Nap, what if I told you there was a single player interactive online game where all you had to do was put up a couple pics of yourself and write up a paragraph about how you are a big dick gunslinger and women line up to sleep with you?
It's a pretty fun game, just don't hit the wrong button and get crabs

no, i dont work there... but, since you brought it up...
my dad, uncle, brother, and i all worked there... my uncle used to work for my dad as the foreman, always did multi million dollar homes for CEO's, CFO's, lawyers, etc..
then my uncle started doing his own Supe sh!t...
a guy by the name of Jeff, became my dads foreman, him and Norm...
we were doing a 2 house remodel and 1 house build for the same owner in Queen Anne, 2 houses on 1 property, 1 the next street down... everything was going great, except for the idiots fvcking [Bleeeeep!] up like the old foreman for the 2nd house that mis measured on the foundation and dropped the door height 2 inches, resulting in around a 30-40k dollar loss because the doors didnt fit into the concrete holes that were 18 inches thick...
then my dad died...
i went back a few times, but it was kinda difficult.. was there till the end of the job...
for about a month after that, i did some odds and ends for the Supe for CDR, he was a great guy...
THEN, i was in the office, and the faggot HR/Safety director was there and called me in his office... said there was an issue with there being 4 Bradeen's there.. (3 at the time, he musta forgot), and people were getting upset that we were all working on the big houses, and they were sweeping saw dust or packin board...
he said someone might need to go... well my dad had pull in that company, and he wasnt around anymore so i was like wtf ever...
then my asshole uncle pulled some bullsh!t and was proven wrong by a professional...
then i quit...
my uncle got booted a while later, think they gave him a severance or some sh!t, who fvckin cares, that GUY is a major part of a bad point of my life...
so now, if you are insinuating that i wasnt worthy, or good enough, i never got fired... i got fought over by some of the best supers in the business, and some of the best carpenters alive... they wanted me there for a reason, maybe it was because im funny, maybe it was because im nice... maybe it was because they liked me...
or maybe it was because i learned what i have leared in my life, in most aspects, by the best...and they wanted the best person they could get... except fishing, my dad always would tell me to go do it myself, even tho he was a big time Steelhead fisherman... he wanted ME TO LEARN...
after he died, i had to do all of it, no questions to him, just finger it out...
and i did, stunningly...
and here we are today...............................................
gonna go play some UFC on the Xbox... later...

just wasnt going to be a good place for me...
my brother is now a Supe for the most part, im sure if i lived closer i could get on with him, hes talking about moving to Montana tho so i dont know what the fvck im gonna do if that happens...

I went to HR because Steve had an issue with Sam, well, anyone who knows Sam knows that he cuts corners, and was hired because he was sleeping with the Directors daughter, who used the foremans 2 weeks of vacation for a fuckup on a misplaced window, because the building supply company was doing favors for Company X.....[Bleeeeep!] me and [Bleeeeep!] you, [Bleeeeep!] everyone
He doesn't want the smoke. I'm not embarresed to say that peoplease on the interent that are grown men who do nothing but run their mouths make me angry. Guess I'm immature or was raised a type of way, but I'm all for people getting punched in the mouths.
