    Yup - one of my favorite games of this generation. Played through it twice and have a slow going one on the highest difficulty.

      I'm with you on this one. DE was excellent for me.

      I'm with Chase on not grabbing a lot of games the day they come out though. Big releases that I'm looking forward to I do, but that's it.

      I'll get WWE ASAP. I got wow and all expansions shortly after they released. Madden used to be a midnight release for me.

      The last game (and only one within 5 years).that I've done the midnight thing for was Skyrim for PS3.

      Steam distribution and pre loading has made my life a breeze for PC releases though. I'll buy excellent PC titles or those titles with a great modding community before I'd buy any single player game. My consoles are my single player machines.

        I haven't given up on it, I just get a little impatient with some games. I'm sure I'll go back to it soon. I haven't really given it a fair chance, because I haven't got to experience any upgraded augmentations and such.

        I do like the concept and idea of the game, I just can't get a feel for character movement.

          I might be off base but I think camera control was my (and one of the communities) claimed biggest flaw.

              It's pretty intense at that level. It's basically a death sentence when you're seen unless you're near an escape route.

                Fish Tacos, Clam Chowder, and Bud Light for dinner. Holy crap I can't wait to get out of here.

                  I'm not making fun or anything honestly, I'm just trying to understand. Because I can't wrap my head around these types of things some of you say on here when there is just so many broads out there.
                  Well for me it's a combination of maybe me having too high standards, living in an isolated location away from a main city and so called "night life". I have a small circle of friends but it does not include any female that I would consider to have a relationship interest into.

                  Growing up and going through High School I was a bit on the shy side, but not to the extent that I was afraid to talk to people. I actually got a long with my classmates quite well, It's just that in High School girls wanted to go out with older guys, and I was on the skinny/scrawny side so I wasn't having any luck there.

                  I didn't go to college (yet, still have time to plan on going) I went straight into the work force, and have had to focus on paying bills and work related issues, not much time to explore relationships. From everything I've heard it's a bad idea to date within the work place, but there's very little females in my workplace in my age group. The few women I do work with are all older, and married. (in their 50's +)

                  I guess it's just the perfect storm of unfortunate circumstances that have led me to not having a Girlfriend. I mean it is what it is, and no I don't cry myself to sleep over feelings of loneliness every night lol. I'm fine and confident with who I am, and I am not stressing not being in a relationship. If God intends for me to have a Girlfriend/Wife, he will put me in that situation. Until then I just go on living my life with my work, education related goals in mind first.

                    I'm gonna try to talk some friends into some wings/beer tonight. I doubt I have to actually talk them into it, though..

No matter how hard you try, so I would say not worry about it. Now, I know that is not easier said than done, but instead of making sure that everyone around is cool with you and what not, first make sure that you are happy.

                              I think the most important factor is to become mentally independent. Become comfortable with yourself, for better or worse. It makes life a lot easier. Second, don't care what people think about you. That is much more difficult for some rather than others, but trust me, it is important.

                              And then make standards for yourself, instead of focusing on what you can do to get a female to notice you, make them have to hit come to you.

                              And the whole, becoming friends with them, then building a relationship, may sound great in theory. But you will be put in the friend zone so many times that it becomes an uphill battle. Basically, what I am saying is, look out for you, love yourself and let whatever happens, happen.
                              Sound advice. Thanks, man. But I must say I'm not into the whole 2.5 kids thing... I'd much prefer a whole kid to half of a kid. That just sounds difficult. :wink:
