    Jesus the Vibora Bay Crisis is depressing. Even though the Champions are all pretty much tools, the crisis storyline is just brutally unfair.

    For a second I thought you were saying that another oil rig exploded.

    I'm frustrated because I just got a new phone a couple of months ago, and they're about to start offering the EVO 4G on my plan for a $20 surcharge.

    So, I could get 550 minutes, unlimited texts and data, and insurance coverage on an EVO 4G for $57 a month. If only I had been able to wait a few more months.

    i guess it's kind of a "had to be there" kind of thing?

    I was there. I really don't get the lasting appeal.

    Like... sure, it was innovative at the time... but it wasn't that great.

    ... no it wasn't innovative either.

    It was just popular

    Compared to it's competition at the time it was very innovative, especially from a level design standpoint.

    System Shock did it better, earlier (2 years earlier)
    It was basically the birth of interactive environments in "tradtional" FPS games. I think System Shock had it beat by a bit but wasn't nearly as widely played and was more of an RPG than an FPS.

    :P

    Man, I have a g1, but I needed the phone so I couldn't wait the month or two for the first line of droids. I was so sad. But it is 82 a month with unlimited text/internet. I only have 350 minutes but I have never broken 100 minutes outside of my 5 people who I have unlimited anytime. Which in reality I only have 4.

    every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.

    It's the size of an iPhone 4 with a case on it. So unless you're wearing skinny jeans you'll do fine. Or some kind of midget.

    Yeah, I was shocked, because I was expecting them to basically tell me to fuck off once my contract was up again. I figured they would just stop carrying phones that functioned on my plan at all, and force me over to their Friends & Family plan (which, while it's cheaper than just about anything else out there, still runs quite a bit more expensive than SERO).

    It's a goddamn shame, because I was gonna get an EVO if I could get it for under $70 a month, and $57 is quite a bit less than that (it was 80-some-odd under the Friends & Family).

    It's a remake of...well I'll be damned, a Coen Brothers movie, Blood Simple. This version is called A Simple Noodle Story (or A Woman, a Gun and a Noodle Shop). It came out last year, but it's just now making the rounds in the US it seems.

    Edit: Beat'd by nexus. But normally that honor would run me $300/hr, so cool.

    My Sprint plan has all that, but only 550 daytime minutes, for $37 a month. Plus insurance coverage for the phone.

    it's definitely a big phone but i seems to slide pretty comfortably into a hip pocket

    well i'm exaggerating of course

    but it did feel unwieldy and large to me

    it reminds me somewhat of the psp: just a ltitle too large to be comfortable portable

    like, i was pretty much set on buying a 4g evo, since i had sprint and was p happy with them

    and then i went to the sprint kiosk and asked to doodle around on it

    and was like

    nope!

    My Japanese phone was 1400 yen a month when you added all the stuff in it. That was unlimited text and calls in network. Which like 90% of my friends were. Or in US dollars, 14 a month.

    They do not sell my Sprint plan anymore. Which is why it shocked me that they're going to start allowing smart phones on it. Then again, from their perspective, aside from the cost of the phone, giving someone service is essentially free, and milking SERO people for another $20 a month is $20 more in the black for them.

    I don't really care about pictures.
