Sam's Thread of Chattin' w/ Jake & Other Robust Subjects

[Murfish]

My flickchart is okay for me right now. There's some stuff that should be there, but it's okay.

 

[Uncle Sam]

Barton Fink punches out The Shining, Rain Man and The Matrix to earn a #14 spot.

Is that movie any good. I've heard it was a little odd.

Yeah. The thing you'll find with most movies is that they're shit. Barton Fink is unorthodox in the sense that it isn't.

[Y 2 Jake]

Very intresting.

 

[Y 2 Jake]

I don't like your top 10 Sam. I'd also request that yourself and Xfear get a profile picture. Thank you.

 

[Uncle Sam]

I'd also request that yourself and Xfear get a profile picture. Thank you.

Done.

 

[Y 2 Jake]

I was hoping for something different.

 

[Uncle Sam]

It's all I had on my hard drive. I'll try to come up with something different.

 

[Y 2 Jake]

I just Googled Steven Seagal and saved the image. If I can do it in 5 minutes, you could do it in one.

My Flickchart is fucked now anyway. Says I haven't seen loads of films I have. Some kind of glitch.

 

[Uncle Sam]

There. Happy?

 

[Y 2 Jake]

Actually no, I'm in pain. Don't let a child give you a Frog Flash, they use their knees to break their fall.

 

[Uncle Sam]

I could have told you that, Jake. You should have asked me to advise you. Too late now.

 

[Y 2 Jake]

The bruise is huge. I'll post in on my Facebook page.

 

[Uncle Sam]

Do.

 

[X]

Hast.

 

[Dexter]

Du hast mich!

 

[Murfish]

I got a purdy profile pic.

 

[Y 2 Jake]

Because Arkahm Asylum was so easy I need another game to play until I buy the usually three, Pro Evo, Fifa & SvR. I want one of those free roaming ones and I think you're the man to suggest one to me Sam.

 

[Minor League Brian]

ZOMG I THOUGHT J00 WERE DEAD JAKE!!!!

 

[Uncle Sam]

There's not really many out there. Those that there are are terrible. I'm told The Godfather is good, but I don't believe it. Saint's Row 2 is only on Xbox. You could always try Assassin's Creed, I suppose.

 

[Y 2 Jake]

Assassin's Credd is the one I bought for £12 and never played because it looks like Prince Of Persia. I've never played Prince Of Persia either, but I don't fancy it at all.

What do you know about Infamous? The game, not the film.

 

[Dexter]

Prototype, Jake. I fucking LOVE that game. I've never played another game that made me feel like more of a badass bringer of destruction than this one. It's basically a superhero game (but it's dark and extremely violent and you're more of a Punisher than a Captain America, if that makes sense) and the free roam parts just turn you loose and let you blow shit up and kill people indiscriminately, and when you're done, a little box pops up showing how many people you killed and how many millions of dollars in damage you caused. That's a nice touch.

 

[Uncle Sam]

Prototype, Infamous - I'm told their quality is pretty similar. You might as well get the one that's PS3 exclusive. I forget which.
