After having tried the PS3 Move and the game 'The Fight' long before they were released I was quite surprised at how accurate the movement was and how fun the fighting was. I've since bought both of them and all I want to ****ing punch is my TV after an infuriating session of calibration fails.
FUCK these stupid gimmicky bullshit movement devices that can't live up to their promises. I was trying to do the pad work training session in the game to help level my characters skills so he doesn't hit like a girl but APPARANTLY I can't fucking throw a punch despite having boxed competitively for nearly 3 years. The depth perception on this piece of shit device is a joke and unless you have a bright green suit on and white walls it fails at head tracking as well.
Not to mention, I had no idea the game was going to have a 'levelling' system where you have to do training sessions to make your fighter punch accurately. I could understand if all it affected was strength, but not accuracy. If I throw a ****ing punch I want it to go where I aim, not to a random location predetermined by my 'technique' score. FUCK you Sony, FUCK you PS3 Move and FUCK you The Fight.
At the very least I had a decent work out. According to the game I burnt 710kcal in the last 30 minutes or so and I'm sweating like a hooker. Shower time!
Edit:
Ok I just figured out why I've been getting my arse handed to me online in this game. Stats from your singleplayer dude carry into the online world. I was doing 14hp punches and he was doing 120hp punches. I got KOed in 3 hits every time. Now I've gotta do the repetitive training sessions which are exhausting. Throwing punches non-stop for 5 minutes is hard work and I need to do it another 30 or so times to max out

My xbox is a lost cause in my eyes. I has RROD, I replaced the X-Clamps. With that sorted, i still got an error. I did the little test & got a 0020 error. Something to do with a bad connection around the GPU & other hardware components. I give up.
RIP little guy. _________________

The punching would probably calm you down, Mr. Angry Pants. _________________

Apparently I'm an idiot for thinking that skateboarding at night on a highway is dangerous. People make so much sense sometimes. _________________

My girlfriend LOVES listening to the trash talking...usually I just give her the mic while I'm playing so she can listen in. But she finds it hilarious how angry people get.
Its one of those things that if you've never experienced you wouldn't really expect people to get that fired up in a videogame. _________________

Thats why if I end up parking too close to someone I at least have the decency to grasp the end of the door at the point where it would impact to cushion the blow and stop it dinting/scratching just incase I accidentally knock the door when getting out _________________

Having to listen to a colleague of mine speak to customers like they're idiots. He's /beyond/ rude, interrupting them, speaking over the top of them and if they want something we don't have he'll either pawn them off on another staff member or do his best to talk them out of the door asap.
The worst part though, all that talk about people shoving warranties down their throats? I doubt they're even half as bad as him, he'll tell them /5 times/ that they need it. And if they don't at the end? He'll just look down at the screen and say "okay well that's your choice, I'm just trying to save you money".
>.< Not a bad guy though, good dad, good husband, /terrible/ customer service bloke though -_- _________________

The damn load times in Fallout: New Vegas. I've had a week off and have really gotten into it, but I feel like I've been staring at the load screen for so long its not funny anymore. Going to install now, hopefully cut the load times at least a little.

Bronson's gigantic whinefest about his arguments and getting negged and that.
The one I just read (see: top of page) was an incoherent, hard to read wall of text, filled with so many spelling and grammar errors that I had to read it 3 times to understand what he was saying. It's totally understandable why people neg him. _________________

So, some group of punks decided to torch a skip bin across the road from my house late last night, I'm assuming for shits and giggles. The site is for a small new shopping complex with a supermarket (convenient).
What pisses me off is the OUTRIGHT RETARDED NATURE of this act. The bin was surrounded by fibro-materials used for building, plus the area where we live is surrounded by bush (with one major patch again adjacent to the building site) and extremely dry at this time of year due to the drought. If that fire or any embers had gotten out of the bin, the whole f****n' suburb could've gone up, including my house. In fact, if my brother hadn't arrived to come see us at that hour (was about 10:30), we may not have even known it had started and who knows what.
To give you an idea of how serious it was, by the time the fiery's got there the bin had mostly melted.
We actually saw the car containing the mongrels we reckon did the deed, as it looped around the block a few times with people cackling from it taking videos of the handiwork. Unfortunately, we missed the rego. _________________

I can't fathom how people cannot understand that those kind of actions can lead to people dying. I don't care how young you are (and at least one is of age if his legally driving a car) you would have to be mentally handicapped not to get how dangerous it is. I think a person who commits arson for little more than shits and giggles should go to prison for something like attempted manslaughter. _________________
