^^ This guy knows what I'm saying!!

Yeah, you can get Mass Effect for 14.99 used at Gamestop. GOD has failed. I can go on Ebay and get every one of those games for AT LEAST 5buxx less and have it delivered to my door. If I don't have the actual game disc, what am I supposed to smash when the game pisses me off?



Mass Effect is not even on The GOD one day later. EPIC FAIL. :rofl:



I just bought Mass Effect Platinum Hits version at Target brand new for $13. Beats any price of the game on demand. Wonder why they ended up taking it off of G.O.D.

Maybe the Games On Demand will put up midnight releases of games, such as Bioshock 2, Mass Effect 2, COD 6, et cetera. Then you can have the game right as it comes out, for $60 just like everyone else. That's one way I see it not being retarded.

I'll tell you what pisses me off about the new update. Games on demand does. For the rest of this rant I will be referring to it as GOD.

GOD is ridiculous. I could see believing in GOD if it offered something that you couldn't get for cheap on Ebay. GOD is charging Walmart prices or higher, for something you can't trade back in after you wear it out. There needs to be some kind of discount or incentive for GOD to make sense. What is sad is that a bunch of idiots will willingly and blindly follow GOD even though there is absolutely no return on investment. Hopefully people will realize that GOD is a scam and not buy into GOD's lies. Hopefully Microsoft will realize that GOD is not what we need. Not like this, anyway.

Microsoft? Where is your GOD now?



Would you and other people not use the short versions for games on demand. Specifically GOD. Use something else.

Satire. Heh.

Loving the new update, finally there will be a little variety amongst the avatars out there.

The netflix updates are stellar, it is truly a great feature (exclusive) that Xbox Live can count its own.

Party updates are minor but noticeable and appreciated.

As for the Games on Demand?? Well... to each his own.

I can appreciate that it would be offensive to some people.
Whether something is a joke or not has nothing to do with how offensive it may be.

Can I come in here and make racist remarks as long as they are jokes?

As far as I am concerned, that's tough shit for some people. I don't believe in God. I believe religion is a crutch for the weak minded. I don't think there's a person out there that could possibly know what's beyond us. I'm entitled to my beliefs, without having to kiss ass to every religious person that posts. Evol is entitled to his beliefs also.

As everyone who actually reads his posts knows, his EVOL stands for Evolution. He's not a religious nut, he's the opposite. While his comments were a JOKE and not intended to spark a religious discussion, as others have pointed out, (and should NOT be offensive to anyone else, regardless of their religion-- seriously why would anyone BESIDES God be offended by his post???) if he decided to make a thread entitled "There is no god" and listed the reasons for that belief, he's entitled to do that as well. People need to stop looking for crap to be offended over. No one says "Oh, hey, all that talk about religion in your bio is offensive to me, Katurn, you need to take it out."

Say your beliefs. Embrace your beliefs. Then stop shoving your beliefs down other people's throats; and don't expect other people to kiss your ass if you don't believe the same thing. And some prunes or prune juice can help unclog a super tight ass, for the record.

And religion is a BELIEF. It's NOT the same as race. But you know what, Taco comes on here all the time and calls people "cracker." I'm the whitest person pretty much on Earth, should I get asshurt over it??? Aaron and Monopoly and Mike make "Mexican" jokes back and forth, should I get pissed because my son is 1/2 cuban?

As far as I'm concerned, our society is weakened by political correctness and catering to the weak and the minorities among us.

*edit* I effing LIKE calling things gay when I don't like them! They're GAY! Gay gay gay!!! This whole subject is officially GAY!!! I'm so TIRED of effing Wanda Sykes. As long as I'm venting.



ive tried to tell my christian friends that...i mean, im not like, atheist...i just dont believe everything in the bible. honestly. you cant even try to PROVE any of that to me. some things MIGHT have happened, some things MIGHT NOT have happened...example. you cant prove to me some dude made a sea part. you just cant. you werent there. in fact, NOBODY was there to witness it, so you can't prove it. the bible has been re-written so many times, its impossible to tell if any of it is true at all!

and lol todays society has taken so many words and changed their meanings. like douche bag, faggot, gay, etc...its funny but kinda messed up...but still lol

and yes. i do call people crackers. and i always will. i dont care if that offends anyone. im biracial, so im part cracker myself. doesnt offend me. and tbh, if it does, then im sorry but youve got problems. this is the internet. if oyu get offended over a flame war, or some persons comment, you have problems. im sorry but its true. this is the internet, it is full of 455holes, get used to it. society aint much different, cept on the internet people can act tougher because theyre hiding behind a keyboard...

/endrant


anyways back on the subject of the new update. i like it. i love my new top hat and lightsaber. altho i do wish we could interact w/ the props more. like, make our avatar do stuff. i mean, the set motions are kinda cool, but i want them to do more, and not have the stupid prop dissappear after a while...thats like, kinda dumb imo. its like, it spawns, he does some motions, snaps and its gon again. after a while he does it again...like wtf much? i want to do more w/ that...maybe MS will improve on it, maybe not, who knows
