I hate that as well... Happened a ton when i went to Bloomsburg..

'where are you from?'
'Philly'
'Nice, where at?'
'Bucks county'

That's why I say I'm from north of Philly. I usually correct them at it.

For some reason, every mission I always stick with just Garrus and Liara. Probably because I find them more interesting than the others. Even more than Javik.

Did anyone get a baseball game yet? I loved The Show last year, except the franchise mode (or whatever it is called) had one major flaw. I liked to take over a crap team (I was the Pirates last year) and one problem I ran into is that the budget for players never goes up. So I won a WS with a ****** team that a had a low payroll, and despite my $400 million or whatever I had in funds, I could only spend like $35 million on the team. I like that it started out that way, having to piece a team together with a limited budget, but as your funds go up from selling out and TV and **** your budget for players should go up. Otherwise, what is the point of controlling the stadium prices and upgrades and such? Anyway, has anyone bought one of the games yet and if so is it good?

Hahahaha. Oh Yeah. You are boned. That first dragon is nothing compared to what comes.

In other news, I started a new game on the side and Skyrim deleted my original character. Why? I don't know. I went to save an there were no other save files. The only files that remain are two autsaves from January. I am a bit displeased, but whatever. My new guy has flamethrower hands so that's pretty cool.

So as someone who played both the 360 version and PC version of Skyrim (brother has 360 version), for some reason I really enjoy the 360 version. PC seems to clunky to me. Only reason I got it for the PC though was due to the sick mods that will come out.

That being said, got ME3 for PC. Heard mixed reviews but I look forward to playing it. Just hope Bioware didnt dum it down more, like they did with Dragon Age and after the first ME

I think the story elements are better than 2. No more stripping planets of resources (boring as ****), instead it's something different, which I find better and makes you come back later. Lot more emotional scenes so far (haven't beat the game even). Who did you romance with in ME2, if you played it?

Ugh, I just played Skyrim for about an hour, died about half way through falling off a cliff without saving. Started over and went through a dungeon and killed the boss at the end and couldn't figure out how to get out and found a trap door. Opened it and fell to my death once again without saving. Ugh.

Bought The Show. Have only played Road to the Show though so far.

I enjoy the game but i'm not exactly a harsh critic on games.

Yeah, baseball games are pretty much the same, but I don't want to spend the money on it if it has the same issue as last year's where your player budget doesn't go up even if you have a ton of money leftover after upgrading every possible feature of your stadium, facilities, etc.

You can never save enough in Skyrim. I think I have about 2000 saves . There's usually a auto-save whenever you enter/leave somewhere with a loading screen.

I have two characters their both around level 30 one's a warrior type, and the other's a mage type. Oddly I still haven't beat the main quest.

Unrelenting force is my favorite shout..
Was doing the quest where odahviing takes you to the place where you find out about Alduin.. was having problems killing all the stuff since my character is somewhat weak still..

Was just using Unrelenting force to blow everybody off the sides of cliffs to get by
