shooters as a whole haven't appealed to me much beyond Tuftoo and occasionally planetside

which are, in my opinion, designed for the PC from the ground up

titanfall isn't

I'm not trying to be dense

But why do you say that

Like architecture wise it was, because the XBONE is x86

do you mean

controls? or what

DJ Eebs

return of the jedi is terrific and I won't hear another word against it

I'm not watching the stream but I bet there's plenty of item unlocks/achievements that Patrick has yet to do as well

the way TF2's multiplayer architecture and, say, call of duty or battlefield's multiplayer architecture feel different isn't exactly something I know how to put into words

but I do feel like they have different approaches

Battlefield explicitly WAS built for PC, at least in the early iterations

so now I'm just confused

I'm not saying those things don't have different approaches but I don't understand what your "PC" and "Console" labels mean

WeedLordVegeta

yeah but I mean Battlefield 4 is a different beast than battlefield

and none can approach 2142

also you may have noticed that I said that I can't articulate it well!

it's just a gut reaction

Fair enough

I've been playing both forever and don't really see a difference

But I'm also that dude who plays multiplayer PC shooters with a 360 controller so maybe I'm not the guy to ask

Ceno

well I'll probably need to add more friends to my origin's list that consists of a whopping six people

because I'm pretty sure I'm about to preorder Titanfall

Listening to the podcast right now. I wish Drew wasn't so touchy/in denial about being a Millenial. OWN it man! Despite what newstand magazines and dumb people say, it's not an actual badge of shame or anything. Yeesh.

*was born in 81*

turtleant

No it's not a badge of shame.

Having a nice shorthand for grumpy old assholes to call you by is still p annoying.

Uriel

anyone else keep getting signed in and out of the forums?

Moriveth

Yeah, being called a 'millenial' is still mostly said as a kind of put-down, I guess? It's silly.

SCREECH OF THE FARG

my response to grumpy old people talkin shit is to tell them i'll think about it at their funeral

Acceptable. Granny Smiths are too goddamn sour. Apples are sweet and delicious dammit

We have jazz apples in Louisiana. Not sure where else you can get them.
Sweet, super crunchy, never gritty, perfect size.

For me, I think my youthful grumpiness towards baby boomers makes it fair. (muwahaha) .

And my only thought for Gen X'ers is "XTREEEEEEEEEEEEMEEEEE" and giggling, so... yeah.

No you won't

That's a whole team right there man!

You know, I think I'm in the mood for a banana, but I wish it would taste more like a pepperoni stick.

HugmasterGeneral

every so often, i go to maternity wards and slap as many display babies as i can before someone chases me out

so when young people get uppity, i can take solace in the chance that they were the ones who got a taste of my palm fury before they could open their eyes

Uriel

Banana's are my favorite fruit.

For reals.

Chincymcchilla

I can't eat bananas either

Check your privilege you filthy fruit-eaters

Uriel

It'll be a sad day when the Cavendish goes extinct.

Better example would probably be UT3 versus previous UT's, where they had to make design choices so the game to run on both, but by doing so it never really felt like a natural fit on either.

nicopernicus

I like granny Smith's the most because I make a killer caramel dip, and they are the best variety for that.

Maximum

Banana's are good, but artificial banana flavoring is the worst. Like, the Willy Wonka Runts candies are great, but if I get a banana one I could almost see myself barfing.

I agree.

But actually...

Artificial banana flavor is based off the flavor of the Gros Micheal which went extinct decades ago.

Mr. G

This is all I can think of when people talk about generation divides

banana flavor medicine best medicine

I've had those once before. I actually found them kinda disapointing. Just kinda tasted like a regular apple to me.

@Maximum Totally agree about artificial banana flavoring. It makes me ANGRY to get something in that flavor. Especially a problem since I like lemon flavored candy and fake-banana sneaks in sometimes. Curse you fake-banana-flavor!

Uriel

This is a really neat idea!

I'd say it's the same as being called a "baby boomer". Good and bad.

Also potatoes are pommes de terre which is literally APPLE OF THE EARTH which I find hilarious

Seafood is fruits de mer which is FRUIT OF THE SEA
