I REALLY need a new computer.

Wow, my eMac did better. ._.

Yeah, I have integrated Intel GMA graphics. Obviously when I got it I wasn't anticipating playing games on it, and I knew pretty much nothing about the insides of computers.

Our eMacs had integrated 32MB memory.

EDIT: they're also intended for educational use, not home gaming

That's the same amount my graphics have, I think. And it's shared too.

Wow, that makes me so angry.

Total wasted: 0 days, 5 hours, 41 mins, and 0 seconds
Total caused: 0 days, 6 hours, 3 mins, and 0 seconds

At least I caused more

I don't have a gamertag but I put in my friend's. He's pretty good and plays a lot so I wasn't surprised by:

Marsupiall
Total wasted: 0 days, 4 hours, 2 mins, and 15 seconds
Total caused: 0 days, 5 hours, 2 mins, and 20 seconds

You know, now that I think about it, I'm almost as good as him if not just as good, but he totally denies it. He's really a big fucking noob. Whenever we play splitscreen on live in rumble pit, he is just a big fat n00b. For example, on (omg I can't remember the name of the map.. was it... construct? Yeah, that was it), you know how there's that main grav lift where on sword matches, n00bs will always stand at the top and camp? Well, I started to pretty much own and he was getting pissy, so he just jumped up there and farmed kills. When I came up there, he owned me, so I came up again and tried to get him, but of course he just kept owning me and his kill count went way up.

God, he's a pretty good friend and all, but sometimes he can just be a total noob. I mean, whenever I try to start an intelligent argument with him, and it's clear that I'm winning (as I usually do), he realizes it and abruptly ends it with "you know what? Your mom." and flicking me off. Then he starts laughing and going "ooh, own3d, lolololol." (I'm not kidding; he says "lololol". While he's talking.)

Hm. I guess that's my rant.

No.

On construct, if you're on that main level, and you go towards the tower part with the rising structures and away from the edge where you can fall over, you'll find a big wide yellow grav-lift. He told me noobs always sword camp up there.

I just lost 4 games in a row in Team Doubles.
I didn't lose my 49, so I guess that's a plus?

*sigh* people care about their ranks too much.

As for me, I'm perfectly content with being Captain (Grade II) Kirk

I keep hearing people talking about Assassins Creed on LIVE, but I don't know how to do that.

Tural · Post by **Tural** » Sun Feb 10, 2008 9:46 pm

What?
Assassin's Creed is strictly single-player.

Funnily enough my friends and I were out drinking a few nights ago and the subject got onto that one specifically (Why? I don't know)...How awesome Assasin's creed would be as a multiplayer game (with a few tweaks)

Less time means you're better.

Better in every way.

I just heard some people talking about how fun the multi-player was on Assassins Creed. They were probably talking about how fun it would be. :/ Oh well.
