I always thought Appetite verision of You're Crazy riff sounds a lot like Thin Lizzy's Cold Sweat riff. I've never gotten anyone to agree with me on it though.  

aaaaaw yeaaah!gonna be amazing, wonder when i'll have the time to play it though

LIstened to Slipknot quite a lot in my late teens/early 20s. Even went to see them I think 4 or 5 times. By the time they released the Gray Chapter I think I gave it one listen but it just wasn't there anymore, Don't know if they've lost it or if I've lost it  A friend of mine is the complete other way around. Really likes .5 but have barely listened to the earlier stuff. 

I think it partly has to do with Corey Taylor being everywhere having an opinion on everything to the point where I just got tired of him. Absolute great front man, seen him a couple of times with Stone Sour as well but not since they dropped their third album which I thought was lackluster too.

The first track of Ghost debut album Opvs Eponymous is just an instrumental song with organ. When you play that song backwards you get a swedish christmas carol called "gläns över sjö och strand"

Deus Culpa

Deus culpa backwards 

gläns över sjö och strand

Pretty hilarious

I'll be in the corner reading the Thrawn trilogy and thinking about what might have been.

I haven't read the original triology, but am planning on doing it. I highly recommend reading the 2 new Thrawn books, Thrawn and Thrawn Alliances, the second book was released last week and I got it yesterday.

I went to a U2 show at Metlife stadium, no seats on the floor then. Still the attendance were "only" about 55 k each show. 

Hmm, could have something to do with the structure of the Stadium and the amount of closed of seats behind the stage then, The "short sides" of Metlife and Friends arena has a lot more seats than the "short side" of Ullevi. When I went to metlife in 2016 it had seats on the floor.

I find it interesting that bigger stadiums such as Metlife, AT&T stadium and so on had much less capacity than Ullevi. Metlife having about 50k capacity for this tour, even Friends Arena had about 55 or 56k capacity, while also have a similar size floor. Ullevi has a gigantic GA floor due to a track n field lap around a football field. 

That's due to the GA/floor has seats in the US. You can put a lot of more people into the stadium if they're standing/moving around.

Anyone else think it's cool this video will be at one billion in the next day or so?

has to be the oldest music video to hit that mark right

Update : 11:39pm pst it accomplished it’s feat. For some it was July 13th and for most it was July 14th. A day that belongs to the history books 

Indeed, it is my birthday after all!

Congrats England! Impressed by Sweden this year but we got as far as we deserved.  Rooting for Belgium/Mbappe now that we’re out. 

What a great world this has been IMO.

Yaaaay, good game, congrats Belgium!

(England, prepare to lose tomorrow)

Sweden to the QF! Fucking sweet!

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

Sweden through, Germany out, never thought I'd see the day.

Why would you be sorry about that?  I just thought it was funny that you gave 12 reasons not to like a specific gaming console, especially "ugly playable charachters". 

Oh, and it's a gun, didn't even notice it when I googled for gifs  Sorry if I offended you, wish I was happy to see you  

Since finishing GoW a while back, I've played the first couple of hours of Uncharted 4, Horizon Zero Dawn and Ratchet & Clank just to get a feel of what to focus on next. Pretty sure it'll be HZD but I think I'll have to wait until I have more free time or else I'm afraid I'll totally neglect my gf.

Nintendo has explained why some of last year’s big E3 surprises weren’t at this year’s show.

Speaking to IGN, Nintendo’s Bill Trinen explained that Nintendo wanted to focus on a shorter window this year rather than showing off some of last year’s surprises like Metroid Prime 4 and the core Pokemon RPG.

“There was other stuff that we probably could have included in E3, but is probably a bit further out, and so we decided to really kind of keep the focus a little bit more on between now and early 2019, which I think you saw some hints of there with a couple of games,” Trinen told IGN.

“We want to show stuff when we think it's ready to show. Obviously it's not like we've stopped working on any of the things we talked about last year, that stuff's all being worked on,” Trinen added. “We'll just show stuff when we're ready to show it and really, right now, the focus is on two big games in the form of Smash and Pokemon [Let’s Go Eevee and Let’s Go Pikachu].”

 

Sounds reasonable enough for me. SSBU seemed to have done the trick for a buddy of mine, said he'd buy a Switch in December. Mario Party in october was also welcome news IMO, hadn't read anything about that.

well, you can see above what I hoped for, and I got nothing.

I'm pretty fucking bummed right now because of that abysmal nintendo presentation. Got to swallow the bitter pill and go on now. Fuck, and resident evil 2 remake was so damn cool. but again, I'm not going to buy a PS4 for one game and besides I can't miss portability anyway.

Dude, PS4 has lots of great exclusive titles, if you were to buy one, it wouldn't be just for one game, that's for certain. 

Holy shiiit! That was amazing!

Slither is just getting better and better. Surely becoming the highlight/most exciting part of the shows IMO. One of Slash's best solos and I think Axl's melody changes in the chorus have made the song better than Scotts version. So happy they finally started playing it. Shame they haven't added more/different songs to the set list, Slither alone won't get me to buy tickets for this tour having seen them already in '16 and '17.

Ghost are 100% Swedish in the sense that Tobias Forge is Ghost. Just like Trent Reznor is Nine Inch Nails. All interviews with a "nameless ghoul" were made by Tobias Forge in ghoul clothing. On stage he plays a charachter, hence the accent. The new album isn't even out yet, no need to worry about not seeing them this time around. They have a tour called " A pale tour called death" between November-December this year, only known shows is Brooklyn and LA, they might fit in a Dallas show just for you ddmuyi2015  

It's a shame you don't know Swedish 'cause there's a couple very good interviews with the man that you're missing out on.

So here's something awful....................................

I completed the game so I decided to go around doing side missions and what not. My son asked if he could play the game so I said yes but make sure you start a new game so you don't spoil anything for yourself.

Anyone want to guess where this is going??

Yep. He started a new game and it erased all of my saved files........................................DAMMIT.

I don't have it in me to go through the whole thing again, so I'm just going to deal with the fact that I'm never going to complete all those side missions lol.

Ugh, that sucks. I've noticed that with some other games as well. I guess nowadays every one using the consoles has to have their own "user" to prevent that from happening. 

I've got plenty of side missions left, treasure maps, letter chests, soul quests and collectibles etc. (not to mention killing the fucking Valkyries, just won't bother with them) but I doubt I'll complete most of them, with the story being over I don't have the same motivation but we'll see. Might replay it sometime.

Also I gotta say, since I completed the story I've bought some more games for my PS4 but they just can't be compared to GoW, have barely played them, the awesomeness of God of War have ruined the other games.:P

Did you go home and go to sleep after the first ending? 

Nope, haven’t done that yet. Didn’t know about a second ending, I’ll do that, cheers!

Ended up buying it and have since beat the main story. It was every bit as good as I expected and hoped!

I did too, absolutely incredible game. Already looking forward to "sequels". Got goose bumps at the ending...

This is the game I'm buying a PS4 for. And that's not having played any GOW game before. Planning on picking it up tomorrow!

His family has released a statement which pretty much confirms his death as suicide.

HUM...lead singer trying to turn the band into a solo project??  I've never heard of anyone ever accused of this before....

It seems it has pretty much been a solo project from the beginning actually.
