OT: Anything Goes 8: Fire This Thread

I couldn't tell you when the last time I had Taco Bell was.

It is completely overrated. I go for the frozen drinks mostly.

Overrated is the most overrated and overused word there is.

 

[ColdSteel2]

You'll be blasting **** out of your wazoo after that visit to Taco Bell.

 

[Cullksinikers]

I go and get two Baja Blast Freezes between 2 and 5 for Happier Hour. If/when that promotion ends, I'll go a lot less.

Too many good Mexican take-out places here in Chicago to bother with Taco Bell. Sure, it's cheaper and quicker, but, I'll pay the extra couple bucks for quality. It works in a pinch, though. Just haven't partaken in a very long time.

T bell is overrated to the point of being underrated, or the Toews effect.

And afterwards you're going to have to find a restroom in a pinch.

What intangibles does TB offer?

I had Taco Bell on Saturday and wasn't hammered drunk at the time. It was a very weird feeling.

 

[Cullksinikers]

IU, fair enough.

CS, I am passed that time of the day. I've got a routine.



Just kidding, man, but yeah, Taco Bell can have that impact on some.

What I should do is get the Frosty-filled waffle cones at Wendy's. I had one a few weeks ago. Not bad.

Fourth meal and the average employee is probably better at faceoffs than Bolland or Kruger.

It's time to eat my Italian beef and GTFO of here.

Just got back from the Honeymoon in Italy. One bar in Rome opened up for the Cup Final Games at 2am, missed a few of the WCF games because wifi was horrible there.

Hah, I watched week 1 for the Bears last year in Rome, well a minute or two of it anyway. They had a guy streaming it from his computer, hooked up to a projector onto the wall.

Where all did you go and stay?

Extremely thoughtful (and at times extremely lazy). Honestly though, with the advent of gift debit cards I think personalized gifts are a thing of the past.

I'd almost rather not even bother than give a gift card. I take pride in the gifts I give, and put a ton of thought into them.

Likewise.

That's why he's the DisgruntledHawkFan and you're not.

I personally love sentimental gifts. I don't care about the cost. But if you want to get me a PS4, that's cool too.

Speaking of PS4, who's getting what system (PS4 or XB1) and when?

I'm a nerd and will probably have both at some point, preordered both and will cancel one if I have to.

PS4 by far. Microsoft is giving the shaft to gamers on the Xbox One. No used games, can't play if you're not online after 24 hours, can't play if Kinect isn't in.

 

[ColdSteel2]

Always been a PS guy and now everyone else I know has always had Xbox but are all making the switch. Talk about shooting yourself in the face, Xbox is about to join Dreamcast and NeoGeo.

 

[committedindian86]

Yeah I always was an Xbox guy (even though I own a PS3) because of the online being so much better, it was worth the $50 a year for cross game chat and ease of use. Now Sony is finally stepping up in the only area that IMO they lacked in.

I don't know what Microsoft is thinking, no used games? I trade my crap in when I beat it and am able to buy more new games because of it. They're touting that game share stuff but it sounds like a gimmick to appease the critics. Sony looks to be a runaway winner.

 

[IU Hawks fan]

I'm gonna stick with PS3 for awhile. Just as PS2 dominated for 2-3 years after PS3's release, PS3 will do the same. They're not gonna stop production on PS3 games for a long time.

 

[committedindian86]

They were still making Madden for PS2 until 2010 because of the contract. Yeah it will have a long shelf life.

 

[ColdSteel2]

My PS3 crapped out about 6 months ago, bought the slim, it's the last of it's generation and I figure it should have a decent resale value, at least 40%, so I plan on trading it in toward a new PS4 when it comes out since the price isn't that bad compared to what the PS3 was when it came out.

NHL 14 is for the PS3 though, not to mention Tales of Xillia, Dynasty Warriors 8, and Final Fantasy X HD.

I was a PS2 guy, then went to Xbox360, and am leaning to PS4. I tend to not be an early adopter so I'll wait for a few months after launch to decide. Let everyone else work out the new bugs in the system. I'll have FIFA 14 for the 360 to hold me over.
