Halo 3 Title "Never Forget"

Well, I remember I posted this once before, but it was before I could even play the song really, and I chose a horrible sound for it. So, I thought I would rerecord it, post it, keep it up, and let some people have a listen. Unfortunately, I still have no method of recording in my room, so I recorded with my headset mic up to my piano speaker, so you will have to ignore the noises of the piano keys, as they are cheap, and can sometimes make a racket.

HERE IT IS!

Also, I know some of the timing was off, and it is kinda quiet, oh well. I just wanted to throw something out there.

What do YOU want for Christmas v2.0

Last Years Topic

Pretty simple and self explanitory. Share your Christmas lists! Even if you don't write lists, then tell us what you want for christmas! So, I guess I will start

Being totally honest, I have next to no idea. I have been trying to think of things for so long, and just come up short. Here is what I have written so far (it's all pretty expensive)

iPod Touch (even the 8 gig)
Camera
Airsoft guns (battery powered, high FPS)
New Computer Chair
Mini fridge
External DVD burner
DVD stand (for games)


That was all word for word off of my list in front of me. So now everyone, share your lists! Maybe while we are at it, I can pick up some ideas from you guys.

I will be making a "How was your christmas" topic on the day of Christmas to discuss, well, Christmas!

Earn Yourself Money With Surveys!

So, some of you might have noticed me sporting this ugly banner in my sig:



And wondered: What kind of scam is this. Well, I basically decided this thread to share this with you.

I recently stumbled across this site, and I decided I should share it so that people who care could see it too. The site works like so:

1. Sign up
2. Fill out website evaluations
3. Redeem money for website evaluations.

The only prerequisite to getting your money, is that you have earned $75 worth, and that your content is appropriate (and not garbage evaluations, such as "Looks good!")

The evaluations only need to be 3 sentences long, and only take about 2-5 minutes to do. Most of them earn you $4 each, as well as a monthly one that earns you $1, along with an entry into the $500 draw.

Now, I didn't want to make this until I knew it worked, and well, it does! I encourage everyone to at least give it a chance guys. Just click the banner above (or the one in my sig) to sign up!

Hopefully this was well enough made not to slam into the city dump

Also, I put this in moronic because it is somewhat advertising, and many people will undoubtedly think it's a scam. Feel free to move it if appropriate.

Video Games : Who wants to create one?

So, Seriously, I am highly considering getting into the XNA creators club (google it if you don't know what it is). I don't know what coding you need, or how it is done, but I am ready to learn. I really want to learn a coding language (I don't consider the stuff I know in VB as a "language" because its so damn easy...)

Anyways, is anyone here part of the XNA, or have any idea how it works? If I do decide to seriously get into this, would anyone be interested in joining me (with or without an XNA membership).

As a plus, the new Action Game Maker that enterbrain is releasing allows you to port into the XNA game studio, so if I don't get a premium membership for it now, I probably will when that comes out.

So, discuss I guess...

(man this topic is messy. I'm really tired, so alot of it may or may not make sense. sorry...)

Intellectual Terrorism

Anyone ever seen this site?
http://www.intellectualterrorism.com

I thought I would share it with you guys. Anyways, the site is basically a collection of (what I would cosider to be) rather well written articles about the most random and awesome stuff. It is run by four guys (looks like only the one contributes) and honestly, it's pretty sweet. I visit from time to se if any articles have changed.

I also quite envy the layout, to be honest. Very nice, sleek, and simple. Don't see that kind of stuff much.

Anyways, the owner of the site looks to be quite deepressed, because no one is visiting or rating articles, and renewal is coming up. He says he probably won't renew it. This is making me quite sad as well, as I LOVE the articles on the site.

Essentially, the purpose of this thread is not only to share an awesome site with you guys (I figure at least some of you would enjoy it), but also to hopefully show that some people are interested, and hopefully get the owner to renew his hosting. I have already contacted him giving him ways to try and get traffic, but he still doesn't sound very convinced.

So anyways, just give the site a look. The "Belligerant B's" article is pretty sweet, along with many others.

PS. I am aware that the owner's last name is myers, this is not my site, my name is Clayton Myers, and you can see my pictures in "Post your Picture".

EDIT: LOL! I forgot a link, it's there now.

Computer Talk!

Yup, let's talk about computers. Considering everyone here (I should hope) has a computer, I'm kind of surprised nothing like this has come up yet. So, here is what I was thinking:

What kind of computer are you using now?
Hopefully you guys can be specific, I'm quite the tech junkie, and I like knowing EVERYTHING. So, if possible, try listing things like CPU, GPU, Motherboard, RAM, and the like. If you are Abley or Harmonic, I would really appreciate knowing your sound cards too :).

Do you plan on purchasing a new system soon? If so, how much would you spend, and what would that computer look like (statistically)?
Basically, discuss computers you plan on purchasing soon, or in the near future. List what you can about them, and how much you would be willing to pay for it.

Anything else computer related!
Why not allow this topic to be fairly general as well. Anything you want to talk about computer wise, drop it off here! Maybe you want to discuss that new Intel I7 Extreme that is coming out. Whatever it may be, do not be afraid to post post post!

Fable II

Since the last attempt at this was horrible, I decided to make a topic!

__..::Fable II::..__
Fableâ„¢ II is the true sequel to the wildly successful original that sold more than 3 million copies, offering even more choices and building on the core gameplay theme of "Fable," where a player's every decision continually defines whom they become. "Fable II" is an action role-playing game (RPG) that truly allows players to live the life they choose in an unimaginably open world environment.

Set 500 years after the original, "Fable II" will provide gamers with an epic story and innovative real-time gameplay, including a massive amount of freedom and choice to explore a vast collection of dungeons, catacombs and caves in the world of Albion.


Features

* Choices, consequences. The innovative gameplay pioneered in the original Fable provided gamers with a never-before-seen level of immersion in a truly interactive world. Fable II expands upon the scope and depth of the Xbox classic by adding incredible new features and creating a wider, more complex kingdom of limitless choices and consequences. Players will have the option to play as a man or woman, get married, have children, and live a life of their own design.


* A land far, far away. Revisit the sprawling world of Albion more than 500 years after the events of the original Fable, where you are free to explore the landscape and openly roam the countryside. For the right price every house, hut, dungeon and castle is for sale. Players can witness how the world grows and changes in response to their decisions in incredible and unique ways as they rediscover Albion as if for the first time.


* Fight with ease. Fable II pioneers a new combat system designed to allow players to truly master hand weapons such as swords and maces, ranged combat weapons such as cross-bows and guns, and an entirely new magic system. These three disciplines, while very accessible, are also amazingly deep, and allow players to mix combat styles and become everything from master swordsman to skilled ranger to evil magic weilder, utilizing a single button on the Xbox 360 controller.


* A hero's best friend. This groundbreaking addition to the game is integral to the theme of unconditional love in Fable II. The canine companion will act as friend, compass and protector. Players must merely feed their pooch and he will love unconditionally, creating a bond that sets up emotion-filled journeys all throughout this magical world.


* Experience the world together. For the first time in the Fable” series, gamers can experience the expansive and immersive world of Fable II with friends, utilizing the new and exciting Dynamic Co-op Mode, bringing the long-awaited multiplayer function to the world of Fable II.


* Xbox LIVE Arcade mini-games earn major cash. Carbonated Games has partnered with Lionhead Studios Ltd. to bring an unparalleled experience to gamers through Xbox LIVE Arcade. Gamers can start earning in-game currency for the Fable II world later this year, before the game's release to retail, by downloading and playing exclusive mini-games, which will be available for download on Xbox LIVE Arcade and allow gamers to purchase weapons, armor and more for their hero.


Clearly that was all ripped from the official Fable 2 page at the official Lion Head Studios site, however, it had some great, summed up info on it, so I figured it would just be best to copy/paste whore it.

Anyways, discuss! Do you plan on buying it? Do you already have it pre-ordered? What is your favorite seen feature so far?

I myself like the expansiveness of the family system, dog, and, well, just the freedom of everything is great! I have had it pre-ordered since sometime around september 20th, so it has been ripping at my skull for a month now!

anyways, I think I did this topic some justice. (well, the fable 2 site did!)

Man dies after waiting 34 hours in ER

Canada: Are we no better than this?

Man who waited 34 hours in ER died of infection

Absolutely ridiculous. For those who just want a sum up of the article:

A man entered ER after not being able to urinate for 24 hours due to a blocked catheter. He had an infected bladder, and needed treatment. He was in the ER for 34 hours, and had gone stiff before he was even brought to the medical staff's attention. He died when realistically, his treatment would have been incredibly simple and relatively quick.

I was actually quite devastated after reading this, and frankly, really pissed off. What do you all think about this? I really don't think that there is any way they could have been so busy to ignore someone who had been in the ER for so long.

Discuss:

Just a layout question...

So, I was snooping around, and I stumbled across something. This is mostly a question for WIP, but I think everyone else may enjoy a look at this (everyone who hasn't seen it, anyways). So, my question is this: What happened to this layout? Did you change your mind about it, or... I don't know, I thought it was somewhat flashy.


Mind you, it's not the greatest, but with a little work, i think it would have been pretty neat. My opinion, of course.

Xbox Live Thread!

Well, I made a steam topic not too long ago, because I really want to get online and play with some of the RMN members. However, I found that the steam topic crashed and burned (for me, anyways) and then I realized, there are probably far more people using Xbox live then steam on these forums. So here is what I propose. Tell us if you have Xbox live or not. If you don't, feel free to let us know what is stopping you from getting it. If you do, please list your gamertag, and all of the games you are available to play online. Allow me to start:

Im looking to expand my games in the near future. Games I am looking into are Call Of Duty 4, and either Eternal Sonata, or whatever the new Tales Of game is that came out for 360 (I REALLY need to satisfy my RPG needs). If you know any other good rpgs for 360, let me know.
