Fuck man, I was wanting to replace my 1st Gen Ipad for a new Tablet to use for traveling/work and be portable for ages now. Yes, I can buy a laptop for the price but i've already have a high end PC and tablets are much more portable and less of a hassle.
I could be playing fucking Skyrim on a tablet on my lunchbreak. That shit is so tight.
EDIT:
Goddamn.

When I have the money I want to build a proper desktop and buy a good tablet. I wouldn't really need a laptop then

Dude, there's an arcade near me that has a FOUR PLAYER DAYTONA USA SETUP. I didn't have any money on me at the time, but I almost started worshiping it. The music in it is SO GOOD

Okay so I finally finished the main quest of Skyrim (yes, 2 years after it came out. That's how I roll).
Alduin was the most disappointing final boss ever. The dungeon leading up to him was at least 3-4 times harder, to the point that I was worried I might be underlevelled. That notion got dashed when I killed Alduin in 60 seconds. With a score of 51 in one-handed using Dragonsbane.

Interesting...I fully support any roguelikes that don't use fucking ASCII graphics. Or more buttons than most flight sims.

Alright, Nuclear Throne IS awesome. What are the HUD icons though? I get that the radiation thing is EXP, but what's up with the lightning bolt/bomb/arrow/shell? And are there any fancy controls I'm not aware of?
Edit: nevermind, they're meters for each ammo type, lulz.
I like Melting but you gotta get lucky and get the +4 HP perk or you're fucked. That crystal shield dude is my second favorite. I'd like the plant more if firing a seed wouldn't make the camera lock onto it...if you fire it into the distance during a battle, the camera makes it difficult.

I prefer my roguelikes in ascii. I play fast and animations slow everything down, and ascii (when used correctly) relays the information I need succinctly. Dwarf Fortress hurts to look at sometimes, though.

I need to get Skyrim again. I was way into it and then fell off before I finished the main quest, as well.
In other news, Dark Souls is $4.99 digital download next Monday on xbox live. If anyone was interested in getting it, that'd definitely be the time.

I'm so jealous of Dark Souls console players; the population's already higher and less hack-prone than the PC version, and now you get an influx of clueless newbies? Cmon!

Crystal lady is pretty good, so is Steroids. Never used melting, but I love his breathing animation from around the camp fire haha.
I've used fish because he's the most balanced IMO and YV becase he looks like a rejected eraserhead character, or the little brother of pyramid head.

Trying to play GW2, I was pretty disappointed but after downloading a massive patch about the size of an entire video game and finding that my characters thatI made day one had a 1 year birthday present. Inside was this item that instantly levels a character to lv20.
So I'm back.
