    "How do I door?" and now "Who gave you a gun?" I can't breathe I'm laughing so hard.

    EA's only ditching the online pass because they see the XBOne and the PS4's inclusion of (optional on the PS4, for now at least) system-level DRM as a way to make up for it.

    Besides - XBOne HAS THE ONLINE PASS BUILT-IN.

    Wind Fish in name only, for it is neither.

    Ok, for the record, they buffed the weapons so that they could compete with the DMR. It had the fastest kills times out of all the precision weapons save for a scoped-in light rifle, and was dead accurate. They brought the rest of the game up to the DMRs level. The hardcore players actually like the faster kill times as it punishes people for making stupid moves. As for the chaingun buffs, that's because people can spawn with plasma pistols and plasma grenades. For those of you who don't know, that basically means death to vehicles.
    I think I'm forgetting something, but fuck it you get the point.

    Edit: Ok, just unpaused the video and heard the ending comment for the Halo 4 thing.
    Screw you.

    And the one in the ankle holster? Kathleen!

  • WolvenSpectreWolvenSpectre Saskatchewan, CanadaRegistered User regular
    from what I posted on YouTube:
    "Kathleen, I thought you wouldn't tell them I gave you a gun... gee, what is the world coming to if you can't count on a loose cannon!

    /me steps back onto the black helicopter and flies back to the secret HQ in Saskatchewan"

    Re: OMGPop, I imagine the people were contractually required to stay on to get the bigger payday, shutting down the company probably shortened that time, so getting fired probably came with a huge bonus.

    Plus, it's Zynga, a place where blatant copying and working with psychologists to find ways to bilk your customers out of money is something you do on a daily basis. I imagine it's not the most fun place to work.

    @Siddown: There was also the more likely contract clause where they couldn't work for one of their competitors for X years if they quit.

    "While it might seem counterintuitive, it actually is."

    And I lost it at "Who gave you a gun?"

    I was going to ask where she has been hiding that thing, but given that she is behind a desk, she could have a chaingun back there and we wouldn't know.

    Gawddammit Kathleen, you're a good cop but there's no place for a rookie with no regard for the law! The mayor and my ass and bleh bleh blah!

    The Occulus Rift is getting an SNES emulator. Checkpoint: your source for news that makes you scream, "WHAT? WHY?!..."

    Not gonna lie. Kathleen with a gun scares me a little bit.

    At what point is someone going to tell her to cut her fucking hair? You can keep that emo one eye shit in high school, but if you want to be on video, we need to see your face. That means both eyes Ms. Hoping for the Hot Topic regional Director Spot.

    I think Kathleen's hair is awesome!

  • TubeTube Registered User admin
    Kathleen's hair is none of your fucking business.

  • axinoaxino Registered User new member
    what does it matter what someone's hair is like, what matters is the content they are giving and damn if she wants she can have a multicoloured afro and I wouldn't care up to her

  • DJ_BunceDJ_Bunce Registered User regular
    And here I was, about to say that Kathleen looks damn good in this episode; I really like the hair, personally. Ignore the naysayers, I think Kathleen looks both stylish and sexy here.

  • SkiddlesSkiddles The frozen white northRegistered User regular
    Graham, you need to do something awesome with your hair for next episode.

    ...Or maybe you'll need a wig.

    Well, whatever it takes, you know what you have to do!

  • cB557cB557 voOOP Registered User regular
    Ok, can't find the quote button on this, but I'll reply anyway.

    Overreacted in that previous post; I think I was tired and didn't feel like being reasonable. I was just frustrated that they were spinning an improvement to the game as stupidity.

    No no Kathleen...You're supposed to toss the badge in the urinal.
