THANKS RYU FOR SPOILING THE ENDING.

Now I have to re write the whole thing.

Star Trek or Iron Man 3 today?  3D worth it on either?

Ryuken

Yes, but when in the post credits scene there is one chunk of Norb left and that is enough for Norb to regenerate and begin the Norbalution anew.

unfortunately, you will find at game's end that the villian Willam opens a tanker sized can of whupazz and totally annihilates all Norbs.

I'll buy that "RPG MAker" and make a Norb RPG so that whenever you start to miss Norb, you can just play NORB QUEST.  Every character will be named Norb (except the villian, who will be named Willam), and you'll go on epic adventures together.  It will be awesome.

They promise a digital-used sales system, but no details on that.  Likely so they can take a cut out of the used game market, which makes sense from a business standpoint, but is not friendly to consumers.

Norb

The way it works is that since the game is tied to your account (which requires an internet check-in every 24 hours), you can't give/sell someone your old game and have them play it on their system.  If they try, they'll be asked to pay full price, basically make them buy the game on their account.

So MS is going to charge a fee to play older games on the new XBox? I'm raising the BS flag on that! I always thought consoles not being backwards compatable as a big turnoff.  >:(

Xbox One reveal...awkward.

That explains why EA killed the online pass thing... haha.

Norb

So the new xbox can play used games, you just have to pay an "unspecified fee" to run them.  So now it's buy a used copy from someone, then pay MS to let you run it.

:laugh:

It's because your monitor can't see your payment information.  Try typing out your CC#, CVV#, and expiration into the shoutbox here, then the monitor can see the info and process the transaction.

Minecraft + Rift =  :thumbup:

Tried it out for a little bit, structures and landscape I spent hours with on a 2d screen, now seen  as if I was actually there...the sense of scale is surreal.

Of everything I've tried to date, Minecraft may just be the "killer app" to really sell the Rift - and

Imaginary or not, Canada sounds like a much less scary place than oh, say, the Middle East or North Korea.

Norb

May 16, 2013, 02:21:37 PM
Canada isn't a real, it's a place parents make up to scare children.

For some reason it seems like Standing Norb should be a town in Canada. I think it's in Saskatchewan. In the town square is a statue of Standing Norb, who... founded the town by slaying bears I think.

He stands and works and stands all day,
How he does it he won't say,
He is Standing Norb!

I converted my desk into a standing desk.  We're entering a new era, Standing Norb.  Woah, that's like an inspirational phrase.  Standing Norb.  You could say someone who is proudly overcoming adversity is "Standing Norb!"  Oooo it'd even be a good name for a drink, "Gimme a Standing Norb!"

Oh it

I can make a mean coffee latte iced banana shake with my Osterizer blender from the 1970's .

This is the cheaper single-cup model, only $60.

On an unrelated note, Eleven days...

looks cool but I dont think I'll be spending $130+ for a coffee maker anytime soon... my cheapy one works fine. :)

Norb

May 15, 2013, 01:47:40 PM
My Keurig coffee maker came.  THIS THING IS AWESOME.  No cleanup, push button, coffee.

I'm gonna get another one for home I think.

heck Meeps, i have routinely had months long bored and disillusioned with games moods for years...i just find something else to do.  read, ride, something.  sleep, watch militar channel, what the heck - won't agonize over it and it's up to the devs to show me something that gets my interest; i don't

I was born in Michigan and lived there til I was about 12. I remember snow in April but I don't remember switchable weather like this! :)
