So we're all in agreement then, Plois will not be allowed on the phone again.

AMERICA $(%& YEAH!


PC version seems good. Lot of graphic options and there's a new anti aliasing option out now that don't really effect the framerate.

Edit: Pics are hosted on iminus so vd and maybe more probably wo'nt be able to see them.

WITHOUT SMAA:


SMAA ENABLED:


The performance cost is near zero. Again, if you have 5 minutes of free time, take a break from the game and enable it. Instructions:

1. Download 1.2 from here: http://mrhaandi.blogspot.com/p/injectsmaa.html
2. Extract.
3. Go to the d3d9 folder.
4. Drag all files to your 'steamapps/common/Borderlands 2/Binaries/Win32' folder.
5. Go back to playing an awesome game!

It's personal taste, but don't use FXAA. It's blurry.

In the "this is sad and disturbing" category of life, my local EB Games was giving away Axe and cereal to people who pre ordered the game because "you won't stop playing."

Makes me almost happy I won't get to play it til Thursday.

[Ploid]

I'm waiting on the normal price drops. No rush for me, too much stuff out there now that I want to play but I can only play one game at a time when I do play them. Some people want me to try FFXIV, then Tekken tag 2, and Torchlight 2. Too many games, there is going to be a crash soon, just need another E.T. game to make it all happen (Xbox 720 being a Kinect only system would do it).

[ItsSeflol]

Are you going to bother with the new Wii? Wifey is getting me it for Xmas.
Also, Plois I need a new phone and I might just go with the new iPhone and become one of those fags. My Desire only got one update since I got it over 2 years ago and that is quite annoying.

[Ploid]

I recently got the new Samsung S3 (hard to hold at first, but I have a new case that helps). I'd suggest something like the Galaxy Nexus. Great screen, full 720p, and a lot of features, though you can't expand the storage space (32gigs built in). My sister also get the S3 after seeing mine, it only comes in white and midnight blue (which could almost pass as black). I have white and kinda wish I had black. Too flashy with the silver trim and such.

Yeah the Desire had a lot of limitations after things started getting more advanced. Low on board memory and such prevented it from being able to run the updates I guess.

S3


Great social features (stuff that keeps your contacts at your finger tips and a lot of interesting operating system level integrations).

Awesome looking screen (super oled or something like that, I forgot the name)

I'm no phone pro but the sound of the calls seem clear.

The bad:
It feels too slippery to hold. Very thin, rounded edges, it's kinda hard to grip while typing and pressing that little button at the bottom. Needs a nice case.

Galaxy Nexus


Dependable, perdy screen, big display.

The bad: It may look odd with it's curved screen. It looks odd. Did I mention it look a bit odd and bulky?
No expandable storage.


I don't mess with Iphones. There seem to be little flexibility on what you can run on it. Also all the phones look the same.

Edit: Oh the battery. S3 has ok battery life, Nexus can't last too long, but when it's in standby it hardly lose a charge.

[ItsSeflol]

I was thinking about waiting til the next Google owned phone came out instead of getting the Nexus now, they seem to release them every 10 months or so and that one has been out for a while.
This phone keeps telling me I'm out of storage n shit, also feels constantly bogged down.

Also,

I have white and kinda wish I had black.

[Ploid]

Yep, out of storage is the problem with Desire. That's one of the reasons I upgraded. Apparently they release the Nexus each year. The next one is due very soon. Can't wait to see what tech they have in it.

[ItsSeflol]

At least I know the iPhone willl get updated and has an app store that doesn't suck, with classics like http://www.ign.com/articles/2012/09/18/ ... io-3d-land.
Way too early to figure out how to embed that link.

I dunno. Haven't decided yet, will have to see how it fits in my hand. I checked out the galaxy 3 and it feels huge and you're right, slippery as Hell.

I haven't tried that touching phones to trade phone numbers thing yet. I didn't know it could trade more stuff. I wonder how that works.

"Hey baby give me your number!"

"Eww uh it's 555-2034"

"No sweetie, I don't type in numbers anymore. Let's have phone sex to trade numbers"

".. uh, Oh I don't have a cell phone."

[ItsSeflol]

Ha, phone sex, classic.
Solid marketing job by Samsung to take a shot at Apple after the lawsuit.

PC >

[Yorke]

That is exceptionally pretty.

Also Sefypoo, I'd look into the iPhone. You can prolly get a 4S cheap as shit now and I love mine. I'm not a crazy app person with my phone but it's easy as hell to use.
