I got him to sign one, as well as my Batman shirt and Snob DVD. That last one led to good conversation. He did seem upset about the ball though, so I'm not surprised. I guess I can see why, there wasn't really a point, it came off quickly and looked like I could've just written "Spoony" on there myself. lol
It was a lot of Final Fantasy questions. And the FF Unlimited was funny, but the rest of that panel I was honestly too tired for.
No, I meant to put "lol" after that first sentence, I didn't reference this in my blog, I was just alluding to the fact I use Wikipedia when I do them, cause my memory is crap as well, and if not for the internet and Google, everything in that timeline would be way off, especially since I don't always get around to playing things at the same time as when they were released/popular etc.
You're good.
I didn't say that I always do either. I am having a hell of a time remembering the name of certain PC games I played in the 90s.
I'd venture to say, even if you think you're emotionless, you were the best presenter for the reviews. This isn't to be mean to the other guys, but they do stumble a lot through their reviews (not that I should talk; I pretty much straight up fumbled in front of a not-amused crowd last week). They are more natural in the "outside the reviews" sections, though, I liked the fighting for money one. lol
I'd like to see one of several of you guys talking about the same game, I'm not sure why but I always love group reviews.
In any case, it's cool to have a another Pixlbit blogger making video content! Keep 'em coming.
Nah, not jerky, I just wanted to clarify I wasn't saying I trust them 100% either, I was just saying the camera could be turned off. I guess I do see your point though, every time it is on or the system is on, they might be collecting something.
I guess I'm just apathetic at this point cause I'm not gonna be buying the thing in the near future anyway. lol
Oh, ok. Guess I'm ok then.
I think you missed part of what I was saying in the comment. I'm aware it's a statement released by them, that's why I said "but I'm not sure how much I buy that" after mentioning their words on privacy, but you can still turn the thing off.
I already conceded that they will likely gather information on you, even saying that really that doesn't even require the camera/microphone (which is a concern when dealing with every online transaction really), but that I still don't want one because I don't want the creepy vibe I get by having it in my house.
All I was saying was you can in fact shut it down, and there are ways to get the camera not to be as intrusive, but that it's a hassle to do that in the first place, so I still don't want one, and still find it a bit creepy. Whether or not they say that, you can, because that thing, with its probably gigantic amount of energy usage, is not going to run unless it's plugged in. But I guess if you're heavy into online gaming they still could use it for dubious means, but to me that's just the privacy issue that comes with any webcam, all of which can be hacked.
I did say one positive thing which was the calories burned thing seemed kind of cool, only because I'm on an exercise routine and calorie diet. But that's been working for me without the camera so eh.
Lots of good games there.
We were trying to get my mom's laptop to hook up to our DVR that's hooked up to the big TV, but I guess the HDMI ports on both are actually outputs, so no go, at least until we figure out a workaround. Too bad it's not a Netflix-ready DVR, cause that's what we're trying to get it to play anyway. Maybe we can request a new one, but talking to Time Warner always takes forever and eats up minutes. At least it works on the TV in the kitchen, but that's one's not much bigger than the laptop screen, though the image is crisper.
Wait, what was this site made for us to talk about again?
Ah, I gotcha. I'm a bit out of the loop, having skipped this generation, so when you mentioned online pass along with FFXV, I thought maybe I was missing a news story or something.
And look forward to the write-ups.
