Bear in mind, the few times I've had to buy those lithium batteries, they were dead in the package. This isn't always the case, but I've had bad luck buying them from drugstores. If possible, pick one up at something like Best Buy or "better". They should have a higher product turnaround...

Can you provide just one example?

I'll likely never play Borderlands 3, but when it comes to BL2, there is no comparison. The humor in SR3 blows BL2 out of the water. Borderlands 2 can't even bring itself to say the word 'fuck', while Saints Row 3 allowed you to eqiup a giant, purple dildo bat. And yet they were both rated 'M'...

As much as I piss on BL2, I'm glad to hear you're having fun. There's been reports across the board with strange issues (BSOD on PC and low framerate for console) but at least you're liking it. Honestly, it seems tech issues aren't that common for BL3.

Thank you, Silentpony, you summed it up pretty well: This is what makes BL2 so unpleasant to play. The art style is beautiful, but everything else is garbage to me. After the constant back-tracking, the abundance of under-leveled loot, unskippable dialogue (you can't select other missions...

Thanks, Chimpzy! I highly recommend any DiRT game. I read that DiRT Rally is a return to the good old days of near-sim levels of difficulty, but I'll still take it over Forza and Gran Turismo. I've been putting off getting a controller for PC; this will be a good excuse.

If your problem can be quantified as an A/B situation, make a list of pros and cons. This is the time to be honest. Fairly straightforward; put the pros under one side, cons on the other. Assign points to the value of any points you think necessary. Then walk away for at least 24 hours and...

Oh wow, really? I like a Kronenbourg once in a while. When I first tried one I realized Kronenbourg tasted the way I had always imagined a beer would taste when I was a child, watching adults drink. I had no concept of beer at the time but I knew it wouldn't be sweet, nor salty. Something...

Wow. That was very informative. And way better than what I would have said, which is IPAs are garbage. This isn't to say that I don't enjoy hoppiness once in a while. I think Weihenstephaner Kristall has a good flavor of hops - within reason. Strange to think that, when I was a kid, I...

Is Hoegaarden popular in Belgium? Or is it mocked the same way Fosters is hated in Australia? Hoegaarden is my favorite, but mostly any wheat beer will do for me. Ah, the campfire you can drink! I bought a bottle of Lagavulin once. Once.

Yes, broken arrows. And a broken up Soviet Union. There's a nuke buried in the sandy shallows off of Georgia somewhere. But past history does not make recent events any less disturbing. Considering the fact that cars are stolen and shipped illegally overseas (it was big a few decades...

In retrospect, that's not the real issue. I think focusing on the fact it was specifically an air-to-air missile, something that needs a specific jet or weapons platform, is distracting from the fact that it was something so physically large. An unusually large weapon was moved from...

You'd be surprised what people can do with tech. This isn't an exact, apples-to-apples comparison, but people are quite ingenious at making things work, especially Libyan rebels: DIY Weapons of the Libyan Rebels...

Wow, Dalisclock was right. I mean...yes! Max Payne 3 is way, way better than Conflict Desert Storm. You are absolutely right 100%. No argument there.

Wait, wait, hold on. Are you saying that No One Lives Forever has WORSE AI and mechanics than FEAR, a game which only came out just five years later? FIVE YEARS LATER and technology had somehow improved? That's impossible! It's impressive though. FEAR only required 8 times more RAM to...
