Friendly fire feels like complete bullshit, but it seems to always happen, and probably always will.
In the battle of Nasiriya my brother saw 4 of his battle buddies get mowed down my an Air Force A-10. 2 of which were in a vehicle with a blue force tracker.
So the pilot, who as far as i know is still not named, was told by the ground controller that there was no Marines in the area. This confuses me because not only was there an eye in the sky, but a 10 digit grid for air support, and BFT (blue force tracker)

I had quite a few people ask me how I felt about Marines holding an umbrella for the President. I didn't know anything about it until I saw the story on the Daily Show.
What I can't believe is how some service members are actually calling it disrespectful and demeaning. Anyone here on the boards who are/were in the military KNOWS that every other day is full of incredible bullshit that we have to do.
Oh and those soldiers and Marines that told me that they would say no to the President if asked to hold an umbrella, shut the fuck up no you wouldn't. Holding an umbrella is the least demeaning thing a boot Corporal could do.

talking about the controllers
hands on with the new Xbox One Controllers


rumble triggers?...was that really needed?

Why not?

I'm betting $499
 Getting both next-gen systems anyway, already saved enough for launch day

Every damn time

I've lost 15 lbs in a month and a half. I swim early in the morning Mon-Friday and lift/cardio at night. Also I stopped drinking soda. Been hitting up PeteRock for some lifting tips so I don't get complacent.

Are you guys still playing? Can I get an invite if you are?

Sure! Is Greeneggsandham your SC handle?

Please renew Hannibal. Best show I've seen in a long time

I would watch if Jason played as his Transporter character

Shooting giant insects and listening to Kato go berserk on the giant spiders? IN!

In!!!

Dead Island Riptide and Dragons Dogma Dark Arisen (360) for the most part I expect. May get sucked into a turn-based strat game of some sort though.

This

Noob!



Did you really get rid of Winter? I have fond memories of Winter picking up loot or foraging during a battle

A new vision = how we try to keep justifying you pay us for Xbox live Gold.

Yep. 3.00 a month for the best MP service in the world is tough to swallow. 

Gotta agree with the sensuous of lettuce

Well its more like the rockets are jumping me

I'm afraid Kato is going to poke my eye out.

One of these days.......

I jump out of airplanes, scuba qualified (but not since 2005), lizards/snakes are cool, I eat my veggies, and I rocket jump for fun. Why the hell do spiders freak me out so much? Even if its a damn spider in a movie or video game it still creeps me out.
My first time I trained as a scout in 1995 I failed because I couldn't keep it together as 2 or 3 spiders were crawling on my face, hand, and neck. I was almost demoted during a deployment because I shot at a camel spider.
If I see one of those fuckers crawling around the house I either go to my happy place and ignore it or I have to call my wife to kill it. Embarrassing and irrational.

Jarrodhk and I have no issues with old DD savegame load

Getting both Riptide and Dark Arisen. My pawn The Grey shall cast again!!

 

Wow.

I think Proner asked my impressions on the 360 version....

And I can really say is that the GT review and the Kotaku review for Injustice completely mirror my own opinion of the game, which is fantastic. I've been a little down these past couple weeks, and playing Injustice for a few hours was the only game that put a smile on my face

I don't care whether I have to click ads, crowd fund, or send you a personal check (I don't use PayPal ever since I got hacked a few years back) but I will support you guys however I can.

Done 

I stay at home and pout all day

me too, just not with as much income

I back in the saddle....kinda. Felt depressed since I retired so I got up off my ass a few weeks ago.

From 0500-0700 teach Marines and soldiers who fail at CWSQ.

Part of the wounded warrior program, driving them to their specialty appointments off post.

And my favorite part of my day is preparing high school kids (those who have already signed up for the delayed entry program) for boot camp.

That's pretty awesome of you.

If I can ask, feel free to ignore, how can you afford not to work, save a ton of money? Good disability?

All my deployments since 1994 went straight to the bank or paid off debts.  Also medically retired with close to 19 years active duty means benefits for life for myself and family. It also doesn't hurt that my wife has a decent paying job here in Georgia, combined with the low cost of living means I can live comfortably and not work unless I want to.  Just bought a house and just 1 monthly retirement check covers the mortgage/utilities for two months.

I don't have to. For some reason these kids I have right now can't stand still, unable to do 1 pull up, and can't run 50 feet before bitching. Poor bastards have until June before the Drill instructors take over

I bought Injustice for the 360.

Sweet! Thanks Forge

Star Conflict, Defiance, and some housework.

The pilot had the wife and I riveted throughout the whole episode. The show seemed to be able to hook us immediately and remained interesting/disturbing at all times. I have high hopes for Hannibal.

apparently, our soldiers are always armed with hatchets, I guess.

Yes

Anyone find the Steam Pre-order bonus items?

This. Not sure where they are. For example I own XCOM but I can't see it in the gift library either.

The South Korean marines are badass. Every time I did cold weather training up there I came away impressed and humbled.

Impressive art and just like Caine said this game is absolutely gorgeous.  Wow....

No problems, no horrible lag, no queue, good performance even during big player raid battles. Smooth beta weekend and looking forward to the release.

 

Defiance beta, Warframe, MWO, who knows.

Same. From my few hours of the Defiance beta, it's actually pretty good.

I don't usually buy a game twice, but when I do I buy Dragon's Dogma.  Looking sweet btw.

I'm downloading it now.  I also got Star Conflict.  I guess I need to start reaching out more for evening gaming opportunities.

Hey Hardron, we usually have a group of us on daily playing either Star Conflict or Warframe.  Jump on our GT vent if you need any help

Loving Warframe, MWO, and Star Conflict. It's a free to game Renaissance!
