You can probably find 30 different places that stream it. =P

Also...24 hours away

Eh, I'll just hear about the reveals. =P

Why not just get a Windows 7 copy, get the hardware, and downgrade? Or is it RTM or whatever the ARM version's called?

No, id never buy Windows RT. Its x86 hardware, but, well, windows downgrade processes never work well for me.....

63742

And windows 8 DOES have better touchscreen support.......

*conflict of interests*

[Magical Girl Mimi]

63743

Hmm. Is touchscreen support required?

/EDIT: Quarter of the Microsoft show over; Sounds like it's boring, though there are some interesting games already announced; new Forza, new Splinter Cell... Doesn't really matter to me, since I don't have a 360 with no intention of getting one, but... =P

//EDIT: I've gotta see this later, apparently there were just crickets chirping when they unveiled that tablet thingy. =P

FINALLY got around to playing Portal 1 in online mode to get the achievements.  I now have everything except the challenge run Achievements.

"Camera Shy" and "Transmission Recieved" are both a pain in the neck, and I'm not certain, but I think they're mutually exclusive.  Anyone feel like trying it out?  (Because I don't! )

No, why would they be?

I got camera shy the first time around possibly transmission received as well, I'll have to check.

63736

You can't get Transmission Received the first time around; the radios don't spawn unless you've completed the game at least once.

The Tomb Raider trailer was kinda interesting, had some stealth elements that reminded me a bit of Goldeneye. Although if Internet Explorer for 360 can be considered a major reveal, that says a lot about the overall quality of what's being revealed

[Magical Girl Mimi]

63746

I heard about Tomb Raider(Everyone went "YES A CONTROLLER!!!" over on GF. =P); but I'm basically just hearing the reactions, and everyone's been yawning since the break between I believe Forza and Tomb Raider. =P

Good grief, it's Kinect, Kinect and more Kinect. >___> There was a trailer for RE6, but it looked basically like "mildly interactive James Bond movie with zombies." Now they're demoing a Kinect game about slingshots, with this woman from the Xbox Live team demoing. She has an extremely annoying voice xD

/EDIT: ARE YOU KIDDING ME? A SOUTH PARK GAME? THAT is an E3 reveal!? This is almost painful @_@

[Magical Girl Mimi]

63748

Yeah, I heard about Gears of Evil 6. =P But, I'm intrigued now.

/EDIT: Sounds like it's finally over. Now, just have to wait 7 more hours for Sony's conference, and then a few more hours after that for Nintendo's.

I honestly don't think either can go very far down, compared to Microsoft. =P

Hopefully the Xbox version of IE includes IE's best feature, which is "the ability to download Chrome and/or Firefox"

-Canama

Haha, very true! However; knowing Microsoft, that won't be present, citing 'compatibility issues'(And it'll use an earlier IE version), despite the fact that if there were no restrictions, it would work fine.(I'm looking at you, XP restrictions; despite the fact that IE's only use is to get Firefox)

[Canama]

> despite the fact that IE's only use is to get Chrome

FTFY

63752

I meant for me. And I'm sorry, but I prefer actual GUIs to the mimimalist approach Chrome takes. =/

[Canama]

63753

Chrome has an actual GUI, what are you talking about?

I got at least three of my Steam friends to buy Humble Indie Bundle V. Good decision to tell them to get it.

We also learnt that one of us is an Omnipotent Demon Knight, another is an Evil and Eternal Shadow, another is an immortal commander of some sorts immune to most omnipotent space demons and apparently I'm an insane cannibal in an Asylum where the staff regularly dissect people for testing, and I have eaten the staff.

TL; DR: Shenanigans in the latter part of the night are weird.

63756

Because...erm...because they both require you to remember things in addition to the puzzles themselves.

OK, maybe they're not, but it's hard to try to remember to do both.

Now I have to go look up all the Portal 2 singleplayer achievements...since I doubt I'll ever get to do co-op.

[Trijhak]

63757

Several of us have Portal 2.

We can do co-op but I'll forward a warning if you ever somehow end up with me: I may get bored with it. That, and I'm still frustrated by chamber 09 in Art Therapy.

I have trouble finding the correct words for what I mean sometimes. >>' I mean the menu bars are hidden(At least by default), and it overall looks like the new default screens for Firefox. Which, to add, I switch out of the moment I can. =P
