Man Forismo Jive... That's funny.

I hadn't seen the "Kevin Butler" pieces... Surprisingly funny. Based only on that first piece, I thought maybe they were real company personalities that had acting training or something... But, they're just actors. Good stuff, though... I just watched them all - damn funny. Weird, though - I don't think I've seen a single on on TV... I wonder if they're internet-only?!?

I think it would be pretty cool to have a CurtPalme.com get together via PS3 and all play some type of game together online. I am not even sure which games you can do this with but a car racing or even shooting game would be good.

Yeah, that was back when I had some time to play a frickin' game. Lately, I've been so damn busy I'm lucky if I get a movie in with the wife once a week. It's starting to really piss me off...

We could try to get a 4-man squad together in Battlefield BC2... I'd imagine that game is probably getting cheaper by now since Medal of Honor and Black Ops just hit.

Anybody know how big of a posse you can get together in Red Dead Redemption? I haven't played it, but it sounds great.

I hope your financial compensation of proportional to the amount of time you are working these days. Otherwise you lend yourself into an abusive situation.

BTW, I have Red Dead Redemption for the 360, and played it once. A friend talked me into it, but since I was dependent on him figuring out a way to setup a private server it was never played again. So much for that $60.

Thanks for the advice, Wan. Unfortunately, I probably make about as much as I could possibly make in my locale without changing careers... So, I need either a different career or a different town - neither of which would be easy on me or the family. The wife goes back to work fall 2012 (assuming the world doesn't end Wink

)... I'm sticking it out until then, and will find something drastically different to do. Been doing the same sh*t for over 15 years and I'm ready for a change.

Take Red Dead to Gamestop and trade it for something else. That, or sell it on ebay - it's still a relatively new and $40 on Amazon. If it was a PS3 version, I'd take it off your hands. I don't buy a lot of games, but I'm buying all PS3 games whenever possible - I see no reason to give MS $50/year to get online play when I get that for free with the PS3.

My PS3 tag is N8FTSCRN. Mr. Green

Look me up. I try to fire up the PS3 at least once a day but like ecrab my time is almost all spoken for lately too. (And I can relate to the job thing ecrab...I need a career change too! Dragging ones unwilling ass out of bed every day just to 'do it again' is long past old and tiring.)

Man Fourismo Jive!

Well, John? It's been out for a couple days, now! What do you think?

I spent about three hours with it last night with a buddy (his digital bulb was shot! Wink

)... I do have to say it's pretty kick-ass. I still say there's something not quite right with the physics... But, it's VASTLY superior to Prologue. In fact from the little time I've had with it, I'd say it got much closer to Forza.

The graphics are unbelievable, though.

OMG, you have GOT to get a wheel!

Check out what I picked up on craigslist for $150! The whole damn thing - seat, wheel, and pedals!

It's freakin' awesome sitting about 7-8' from the 8-foot screen!

Nice score! I found one locally as well but he parted it out.
