What are you farming to get the Bee Shield, Hunter Hellquist or the Treants in the Tiny Tina DLC?
BTW, First on Page 5 :slight_smile:

I just can’t wait. :wink:

> I just can’t wait. :wink:

I can’t wait either, even though I’ll be at the beach during that time. I will probably record the E3 presentations for Nintendo and Xbox before I leave.

I am also excited for a solid release date for Super Smash Bros Wii U and information on Halo 5 and anything else planned for the Xbox.

I took my xbox one home for the weekend without my kinect. Its actually really interesting to see how different it feels. I didn’t even realize how much I used kinect until I didn’t have it…

Same

What idiot is going to walk on the track ?

And wouldn’t you feel a train approach ? Every time I stand near the track you can feel the ground move,

Did it fill a lot different I think I will get kinect with the xbox one when I get it.

I’m excited to see some actual gameplay of the Super Smash game. I do wish that they were a bit more outgoing with the variety in characters. I mean really, Ike?! What about Chrom because he would be a lot more preferred!

Anyone here watch 24/24" Live another day?

Can’t say I’ve ever watched 24 … past or present. Its one of those shows that’s on my “to watch” list.

That, Lost and … um, there was another one. I just can’t remember what it was. Its on my N-flix queue.

edited color to look cool

Huh…so I use orange for about 3 weeks, and now many people all over Waypoint are using it.

Not sure if popular, or just using cool color…

its spreading like a disease!

Yup

Definitely just using cool color. :stuck_out_tongue:

I wonder…can we make a page of pure orange? I’d buy it for a dollar. :stuck_out_tongue:

Ah, but what about the white on the side? Betchya didn’t think of that. :stuck_out_tongue:

Bring a creator of several Halo Minecraft skins myself, I think it’s cute to see all the Xbox edition players getting all excited for Halo mash up pack.

Not to needlessly bash Xbox, but having to pay money for something that I can create myself for free is a little pathetic. Needless to say, PC Minecraft is superior to the Xbox version in about every way and I wish to enlighten those who are unwilling to take advantage of its superiority.

Its an awesome drama/action show following a government agent. Its all based in real time so theres 24 episodes per season and each episode is an hour long. Highly recommend it.

In other news I just 100% Spartan Ops for Xbox One ^^ When I go back to my summer apartment I’m going to go for that on my xbox 360. Pretty sure MOST of the achievements unlock when you boot up the game right?

Ah-HA, create it while I’m away, will you? Wellllllllll… you guys couldn’t avoid me forever!


I’m at a loss for a conversation starter. I must say… I was pretty disappointed. Oh well… at least that huge battle for claiming page 1000 is finally over!

I will own page 117.

Did I hear Crazy Bus…?

You’re welcome.

In other news, I hate cleaning. I hate packing. I need to get my paint colors sorted. Gotta repaint my dresser and shelf unit while I’m at it. I’m so past my ‘everything needs to be black’ stage, I can’t stand the looming blackness anymore.

I think that most do, but I’m not 100% sure that Extra Credit will unlock, because it bases the achievements off the stats uploaded to the cloud. You may have to redo every single Assault Op while offline. Sucks, but that’s how it is. :-/
