I stripped him the "A" and gave it to OEL.

Grr.

I do not approve of that.

By the way, would you be interested in trading that Cullen card?

[Fel 96]

Well, what do you have?

[Avder]

Newest city is growing fast. Already hit 700K. Whole map filled out with medium density zones, and partially rezoned to high density.

Just need to build a bunch more slum cities to fill the low wealth demand since I'm not letting those poor saps into this city.

[Fel 96]

So, I decided to upgrade my OEL card to a SOTW one for 20k pucks.

Not to mention, RD and Wild card just like the normal card. 88 overall though.

[tyratoku]

I bought Resident Evil 4 on the xbox live sale the other day. I'm roughly halfway through it, if I remember right.

I got screwed out of an achievement though. The achievement is for defeating the giant fish in the lake. I did that, but no achievement. I have the ones for beating El Gigante and Chief Mendez shortly after that, but not that one.

So lame.

Still a fun game though. Oh, and the new Assassins Creed looks fantastic. Pirates? Aww **** yeah. I never got AC3, but this one is probably going to draw me in.

[Dee Oh Cee]

Yeah...I'm interested in how they factor in the Desmond story in the new one. But the introductory trailer was pretty sweet.

[Jarick]

I loved AC2, got 100% on it. I want to borrow the sequels from a friend someday and then do AC3.

I'm still plugging away at FF9. Halfway through the second disc. Seriously, $5 for 30-40 hours of entertainment? No contest.

I just wish the battles didn't take so long. 15-20 seconds just to spin the camera and introduce the guys. I have speed cranked all the way, still too slow.

[Dee Oh Cee]

Yeah I think Brotherhood was still my favorite. Definitely should try and borrow that one.

[Avder]

Just passed 1.2 Million on the new city. Region population is pushing 19 Million with only a few tiles left to go. Gonna try my best to hit 25,000,000 region wide.

New SOTWs are out and Backstrom is one of em'. They gave him a +3 All so he's 91 overall now.

How much does he cost?

Considering the TOTW just came out 45 minutes ago, I doubt anyone has even pulled any of the new SOTWs yet. Once the market settles and there's at least a few of em' on the market, I'd guess around 80-100k.

[Zaktar]

I'm sick today and was bored. Figured I needed an avatar and this is what I ended up making. Since it's moderately video game related, I thought I'd put it in here.



On a more topic related note, my being sick for 4 days has resulted in my playing a ton of Ni No Kuni. I have a lot of minor issues with the game (particularly the combat) but it is quite enjoyable.

[Juhokar]

Is somebody else playing Franchise Hockey Manager?
This game is awesome!

EDIT: Awesome and buggy...lost my latest save.

Holy crap, the first one I saw was at 250k BIN.

There's another one at 99k though.

[Fel 96]

New roster update is out and Brodin and Coyle are there but they scratched Zucker.

Edit: Clutterbuck and Prosser also scratched.

Well, Brodin's overall is 75.

Not bad.

[tyratoku]

Oh, hey, Age of Empires II is coming out in glorious HD on steam in about a month with steamworks support.

I already bought mine. I cannot wait.

AOE II is my favorite game of all time, on any device. All these years later I still love it. Coming out it HD will be awesome. Did you download the "Forgotten Empires" version? If not, I would recommend it.
