RED DEAD REDEMPTION is backwards compatible
Technico Support replied to RIPPA's topic in COMPUTERS & GAMES & TECH
Same here. It crapped out when I tried Friday but then it worked when I tried this past Saturday. -

I'd say it's worth it. It adds another standalone story to the game (it's shorter than the main game but still fun). It also adds more online modes. You also get an "Undead Hunter" outfit, which looks suspiciously like Ash from Evil Dead. -

Just stopped by Gamestop...used copies are still $13+. Yeah, I think I'll do the download for $10.50. -
Yeah, this shooting isn't helping things. All it's going to do is bolster the "blue lives matter" numbskulls and embolden cops' martyr complexes and their "us against the world, shoot them before they can shoot us" mentality.

Yeah, that's just one of those movies that would be totally ruined in a censored version. Like when Scarface comes on a non-premium channel and so much is blanked out half the movie is silent.

Seriously. We'd be better off with the actual army patrolling the streets than these scared yahoos. It's funny, when the shit was going down in Ferguson, I read a post somewhere by an actual serviceman who said soldiers patrolling cities in the Middle East treat the people there better than our cops here do, as they're trained to de-escalate situations and try to work with the people there instead of just getting nervous and going all murderdeathkill on everybody.

ALL-ENCOMPASSING T-SHIRT AND MERCHANDISE THREAD
Technico Support replied to MORELOCK's topic in The PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING
I hope on the back it says "OBAMA IS TAKIN' MONEY FROM HARD WORKIN" MURICANS AN' GIVIN' IT TO PEOPLE WHO DON'T WANNA WORK" in Helvetica -
That's what I don't get. So many police are hysterical and so frightened and go from 0 to 100 in seconds. Why? I just ready about the Castile case and it's horrific. Are police departments scraping the bottom of the barrel with regard to hiring or is it a cultural thing where cops are increasingly believing the "us against the world" hype where they just assume they're policing Fallujah instead of Anytown, USA?

JULY 2016 WRESTLING PHOTO THREAD
Technico Support replied to Rev Ray's topic in The PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING
I was there! I am old. -
LOL I noticed the octet thing, too. Took me right out of the episode for a few minutes. I had to pause and complain to my wife about it. It's a wonder she's still around; Mrs. TS is a fucking saint I tell ya. It's funny you mention the "555" thing because I thought the same thing. There's a really great self-referential scene where two members of the team are watching "Hackers" and scoffing at its graphical representation of hacking, wondering openly which show or movie will give this generation an unrealistic view of the practice. They might as well have turned to the camera and winked.

So they actually have advisors? Because so much of the technical stuff they say on the show is bullshit word salad. I mean it's not "two people furiously type on one keyboard as they frantically try to stop a hack" bad but still. And the graphical representation of a virus slowly heading toward a server as they rush to shut it down (episode 1) was fucking garbage. Data does not travel like a game of Pipe Dream for Windows. I will give them points for adhering to the very true premise that the majority of hacks are social/human error. The scene with the chick dropping piles of thumb drives outside the police station was cool.

The combination of the "best/worst finishers" thread and a few mentions of Bob Backlund got me thinking of the atomic drop. I have legitimately not seen anyone do an atomic drop since the late 80s. In a world where we have the Canadian Destroyer and 35 leaping STO variations, has wrestling evolved to the point where smashing a dude's ass with your knee is where we draw the line of absurdity? The atomic drop and the claw are moves that, off the top of my head, are examples of wrestling moves you just don't see anymore (or rarely). What else ya got?

The best/worst finishers past and present?
Technico Support replied to The Natural's topic in The PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING
LOL @ "belly clothesline." That's perfect. Even better than "running hug" as the description for Edge's spear. -

The best/worst finishers past and present?
Technico Support replied to The Natural's topic in The PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING
I mentioned it in another thread, but Moose has the worst spear I've ever seen, which is ironic because the guy played pro football. But he barely touches his opponent and then he himself does a forward flip when he hits it. Indyriffic in all the wrong ways. Look at this gentle, non-hurty shit. He essentially doing a running cannonball into nothing while he glances his opponent, who bumps as best he can: On the positive front, I love Kenny Omega's One Winged Angel, which is indyriffic in all the right ways. Similarly, I like Pentagon Jr.'s pumphandle driver though it's not a finish. Both moves look like they could Droz the person taking it if they're even slightly off. -
There's a prevailing callousness in this country toward those we perceive as being "below us" that's sad and is never going to change. You see it every time a suspected criminal is killed by police. "Well he had it coming." No, motherfucker. We have due process and sentencing in this country that is supposed to be commensurate with the crime. This shit ain't Robocop. Murder might get a death sentence but nothing else does. You can't just shrug off police straight up murdering someone who did a lesser crime, or even just suspected or looking suspicious because, "fuck it, he was trash anyway and probably deserved it." God, it makes me sick.

Holy shit I used to love RDR multiplayer (when it worked) deathmatches and how you got a new skin every time. MINERS versus WALTON'S GANG -
STEVE AUSTIN PODCAST THREAD (New)
Technico Support replied to RIPPA's topic in The PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING
I'd guess not true...Steve seems a little clueless with regard to indies. I remember him interviewing Kevin Steen a while back and Steen said something like, "I don't know whatever happened to El Generico but I hear this Sami Zayn kid is doing well in NXT" and Steve didn't get it and moved on. -
She misunderstood when she overheard someone saying, "I don't care about how she wrestles, I'd rather see her box."

Aside from being a domestic abuser, his spear looks like shit. -

Do you need Xbox Live Gold for this or do you just put the old disc in and bob's your uncle?
