You forgot "Koreans love Starcraft".
That's actually not a joke. They have channels dedicated to it. They have the greatest players in the world there and people who live for it.

OT:
My PC still can't run Crysis on Maximum. System Requirements lab says go for it. My computer decides to do what it feels like. Usually make a clipshow about what's happening.

Calumon: Starting from zero? Doesn't everyone when making something new?

That's a mighty big boxing glove. Will there be an option for Uber Platinum users to have the remaining space inside the glove filled with rusty bolts and shrapnel? I mean, if I'm going to pay for someone bringing the pain in my name I might as well make the most of it.
I think that's the Uber Platinum Deluxe package
I'm saving up for the Super Uber Platinum Deluxe service where they whack the offender on the head with their own 360, then force them to watch Twilight.

DNF will never stop being funny since my best friend pre-ordered it at full price when it was FIRST announced. We were around 14 at the time, I found out 2-3 years later and just laughed. I've never stopped.

Id get it just for the golden headset.
Hell, I'd get it for the headset with monocle and I don't even have an Xbox
And then you must raise your pinkie while gaming and wearing the headset as it will complete the ensemble.

Don't know if said already but they forgot "The cake is a lie".
I still don't get that joke. Yes I've played Portal, (three times through) but I never really found that joke that funny...

Nobody can repeat terribly silly memes quite as solemnly and wonderfully as Graham and Kathleen - I mean, you see the joke coming from a mile away, but it's just delivered so methodically and un-nuanced that you can't help but chortle to yourself through the entire line. It's like if David Ortiz was playing in a Women's softball league: Here's the underhanded pitch, right down the middle, no strings attached, Ortiz winds up, aaaaand HOME RUN! AGAIN!

You know I'm starting to pre-emptively feel sorry for Gearbox, they aren't bad people but they are getting the duke nukem piled on them already. I mean sure they annoyed us with the claptrap, but now we are getting to blow them up in the new Borderlands DLC.

XBox Live Ultra-Platinum: Real-time real life consequences doled out to everyone who you deem to be playing the game improperly.
For your basic level cheaters, suspected hackers and foul mouthed tweens, a specially crafted subscriber-only controller (only $299.98 + shipping) has the guide button replaced by a deaths head, that instantly red-rings the console of anyone in the game with you when you ragequit to the dashboard.

For those truly dedicated members of Xbox Live, Microsoft will be unrolling Xbox Live Omega 2012. This invitation-only membership level will cost 4.8 million Microsoft Points per year, but comes with a range of benefits and matchmaking enhancements.
Someone getting a suspicious amount of one shot kills in Halo? Based on your pre-set voice command ("douchebag!"), that person will instantly have his controller explode, removing a guaranteed 80% of his or her hands.
Knife runners and akimbo 1887s in Modern Warfare 2? Simply by uttering "******!" into your Xbox Live headset, a professional hitman is dispatched to the players house, with guaranteed behavioural correction within 48 hours.
In addition, you are entitled to download TWO premium dashboard themes of your choice.

PS3 has no games is still a cornerstone. It's even more hilarious now, since fanboys will freak out given there is currently a plethora of games and they still can't shed the label.

I posted the "No computer can run Crysis" joke on incrysis.com. *Shameless Plug*

Most of our members would scoff at this joke as this was true 3 years ago but is becoming more and more not true.
