> Anyone ever look back at old posts of theirs on other sites? Never again.

I look back at posts I made a year ago here and think the same thing.

One day, maybe one day, the gaming industry will evolve past the mindset that having country-specific exclusives is 100% essential to the success of the product.

Whether it’s releasing the game on separate days based off country, having a cool helmet be exclusive to a different country, having an entire edition of the game be exclusive to another country, or just having bonuses and features that alienate millions, all suffer from the idea of exclusive content.

*sigh

I think looking over any writing you did a year back makes you think, ‘what was I doing when I wrote that?’

Only 198 more posts. The nightmare that is more formally known as ODST-Onyx is almost over.

Question: Why do we need to be Spartans to have a signature?

This is a question that has always baffled me.

I guess that it’s because they want Spartans to “stick out” and to provide an incentive to post like hell. And it’s working.

Because if everyone had a signature, it would be pure -Yoinking!- chaos.

Truer words were NOT spoken. Signatures can get ugly, quickly. In a variety of ways. Limiting the number of people who have them makes it so much easier.

You got through ODST onyx pretty quick not long now.

I believe this was my very first post. Probably not my first but its one of the earliest posts I’ve made.

Whenever I do that I feel bad about myself. :{

I just woke up to find info of a UK LE of the MCC. There’s also a Mjolnir edition. Seems pretty cool; plus if anyone wanted it outside of the UK, you technically could as there are no region-restrictions on XB1 games. May cost more. though.

Okay… New MCC editions.

Probably getting this cleared up at gamescom. earliest

There’s nothing to clear up - these special editions are a joint effort from Xbox UK and GAME. 343 Industries didn’t create them.

So, ive been playing RS again for the whole day.

I got 79 Summoning, so i can now summon Ice, Fire and Earth giants. Thats pretty neat, considering their special ability is healing.

Also got 65 Herblore, which is one of the requirements for the quest ‘While Guthix Sleeps’, which is one of the hardest quests in the game.

And right now im training Agility, which is without a doubt the worst skill in the game, and i need level 70 agility to complete the ‘Mourning’s end part 2’ quest, which is one of the quests you have to complete in order to start ‘While Guthix Sleeps’

After the ‘Mourning’s end part 2’ quest i still need to complete 1 requirement before i can start the WGS quest…
And that requirement is 65 Farming…

So I did watch Guardians of the Galaxy yesterday and it was an incredible time. So, so, good. Can see why people loved it so much. Definitely a fresh breath of air and something different.

Also watched Battleship of Netflix the other night and had a good time with it too.

One question.
Is Rocket Raccoon a boss?

Yes.

Also, I am not familiar with Howard the Duck but am aware that he is a Marvel character that has been around for quite a while. What kind of character is he?
