> I finished Watch_Dogs last night. Overall, I did not enjoy it.

really? What didn’t you enjoy about?

Personally, I loved the game and had a great time with it. There were a some aspects that weren’t so great like Aidens lack of emotion despite his dialogue. Also his sister seemed almost unfazed by the murder. Graphics should have been better too. I also wish the game had a more accurate depiction of Chicago but I understand the difficulty in recreating an entire city brick by brick in a game. They did well for what they made.

Thats absurd. A curved TV is a col idea nonetheless but it isn’t THAT special. If curved TVs really are the next big thing, other companies will replicate it eventually and the price will come down to reasonable prices.

Who is there market with this TV…

For the record it is because some or most of the demographic are rather young or immature on YouTube which is why those videos get such views. The old generation of entertainment has died.
Some people just have the tendency to like that kind of humour as well.
This is only my guess at why these are actual things.

Think of it this way.

My last highschool gym teacher forced us to dance Gangnam in front of a crowd if we wanted to get our highschool certificate.

And I was the only one who opposed :frowning:

I really don’t know what’s wrong with some people these days…

Not sure. Perhaps it’s just the “classic” feeling. Sure, Slendy and Jeff aren’t the best stories imaginable, but because they’re pioneers it makes them seem better on a classic level. Then again, that’s just me trying to apply my own brand of logic to things.

> There has been one gaming creepypasta I enjoyed, it’s called Xorax.

Xorax was alright.

And the only good gaming CreepyPasta that i can think of right now is Ben.Drowned, mostly because of how much effort went into making it seem like its real.

EDIT: Also, i find the whole Slenderman CreepyPasta to be stupid in almost every single way, and its kind of weird that i think about it that way, since my favorite Doctor Who ‘villain’, The Silence is based off of Slenderman, and that one weird looking painting.

For all we know, he could possibly be Sgt. Johnson’s replacement. That would be sweet. :slight_smile:

343i already tried that.

And look how it went. Not very well received.

I think Agent Locke is going to be a very close companion of Chief like Johnson and Cortana was, but playing more of a sidekick role. However, a more powerful sidekick role where the hero is definitely powerful enough to stand by himself, like how Black Widow is to Iron Man, Captain America, and the rest of the Avengers.

As Andycu5 pointed out, there was an English philosopher named John Locke who questioned higher powers. A bit similar to John and Locke’s situation in the Halo Universe.

Let’s discuss in the Nightfall topics, don’t want this in Off-Topic.

I got Watch Dogs and an Xbox One, and am currently loving it.

As I usually end up doing with open world games, I’m running around the city doing side missions and activities, so I’m not far into the story yet.
But I’m enjoying the stories I’m uncovering and am excited to see how it ties in to the main campaign.

The side missions are a lot of fun… especially when you have a grenade launcher. The story is really good in my opinion. I 100% the game and truly enjoyed every second of it. Even though the DLC doesn’t add achievements, I’m still considering buying it and playing it just for fun.

Also, looks like Marty is getting paid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bPlinbauk08&list=UU4w_tMnHl6sw5VD93tVymGw

Nah. She reminds me more of Miranda Keys than anything. I would say Lasky in Halo 4 was more similar to Johnson since he was a close friend to Chief, just like Johnson. Lasky and Locke would be good replacements for Johnson.

Titanfall, Forza, download Outlast, Killer Instinct and Trials Fusion as well :slight_smile:

Yay. I got an email with my 3 Destiny BETA codes. Nice, :slight_smile:

I have a spare Destiny Beta code for Xbox One.

This is allowed, right?! Does anybody need it?

Yep! It’s live for everyone now. Very excited. :slight_smile:

You can also see your codes on bnet even if you haven’t got an email yet.
