I'm at about 3M.

@3ventic How about SL?

I have been spending quite a few souls on getting new weapons and armor.

But we can't PvP. Still within range of co-op, but no PvP.

Okay so I went out yard saling and picked up a ps2 and assorted equipment for $5

No memory cards

Who wants to put down money on whether or not it'll boot up?

Chippies

@RedRiderX Gee, sounds like you get some awesome yard sales, I'm jealous

RedRiderX

Also a full rockband kit

And a full Buzz it kit

Also for the $5

Yuki

wat

RedRiderX

14:47

And like 2 dozen c-list games

For the $5

But I don't have an old tv :(

badp

RedRiderX

Now what do I do!?

Do I have to buy on old tv?

badp

How the fuck do you clear out a room with twenty of those things

Yuki

I can see any one of those separate things costing $5, but all of them?

RedRiderX

Yep

I think I won at yard sales

badp

14:50

@Yuki hmmm what's the state of PS2 emulation?

RedRiderX

But again, who wants to put down money that it'll boot up?

badp

well you can just plug into a wall socket and see if the power led goes up

that'd be a start

RedRiderX

Oh yes that works

But yeah I didn't think through to the needing to use rca bit

Last time I checked though, the PS2 emulator was still kinda buggy and unstable. Of course, that was at least 3 years ago.

badp

no no no the hardware's actually surprisingly cheap

it's the things to put into it that aren't

RedRiderX

True

(does the 3DS use cartridges or whatever?)

But that is the way of consoles.

@badp Like SD cards right?

Fluttershy

So a friend invited me to a BBQ last night. He invited a friend of his who I'd never met before. This guy spent the night contradicting everything everyone said, made farting noises at my mentioning PS3, claimed that Spider-Man was going to be in Avengers 2 because Disney is an evil corporation that owns everything, said Microsoft and Xbox were two different companies, and that Xbox "are pretty cool dudes." <_< I didn't know how to tell him to stop talking because he was embarrassing himself.

Origami Robot

@Fluttershy In his defense, farting noises are pretty funny.

Fluttershy

@OrigamiRobot When said farting noises are an attempt to start up a "my console is better than your console" argument, they're pretty dumb. :P

Yuki

Silly console peasants.

Origami Robot

@Fluttershy Well, I mean, PS3 is the size and cost of your house, amirite?

That's still the joke we're making, right?

Fluttershy

15:49

@OrigamiRobot I think that joke kinda died when Xbone took the expensive route.

Yuki

Well that means you don't have to buy a house now. Just live in your PS3.

@Fluttershy Even if Disney had the rights to Spider-Man, I'm wondering how they'd fit Spider-Man in with a movie about Ultron.

Ben Brocka

15:57

@Fluttershy I know a lot of people think of Xbox as very separate but that's pretty funny

Yuki

I don't think Spider-Man and Ultron intersected all that often.

Fluttershy

Oh, also, when I said I was looking forward to seeing how they tied Guardians of the Galaxy into The Avengers 3, he said, "They're not going to. Not enough people know about Guardians of the Galaxy."

Ben Brocka

@RedRiderX I think those are kinda iffy in some games. Not sure how wide support is, but only 8mb cards are guaranteed to work

Yuki

True, not many people know about Guardians of the Galaxy, but Marvel has tied all their movies together.

Well, those they made with Disney.

FEichinger

@Frank You know how you could easily stop reacting to him? By fucking ignoring him, like you do with every other person who "annoys" you.

Frank

17:24

@AshleyNunn Because everyone else has him ignored.

Origami Robot

The great thing about ignoring people is you don't even know there's something to react to.

@OrigamiRobot This, right there.

Which should tell you something about his character.

If it was one message, I wouldn't care.

It's the constant behaviour I'm attempting to address here.

@AshleyNunn There's a covenant in Dark Souls 2 that revolves around PvP duels.

As you win duels, you rank up in the covenant.

As you hit ranks, you get rewards.

One of the rewards is the Dragon Head Stone.

Using it turns your head into a dragon head. You can breathe fire and all that.

Unfortunately, it doesn't come off until you die.
