[15:40:03] <nick> cmn32480: seasonal greeting #54
[15:40:45] <cmn32480> is that the quantity you ahve given out, or the number of the greeting?
[15:42:08] <nick> voucher code to redeem at your convenience
[15:42:13] <cmn32480> WOO HOO!
[15:42:18] <cmn32480> will it work on the XBox?
[15:43:16] <nick> no
[15:43:28] <cmn32480> nuts
[15:43:40] <cmn32480> you have a nice Christmas?
[15:43:49] <nick> only works with uplay and you must spend $60 first.
[15:44:01] <cmn32480> meh... oh well
[15:44:06] <cmn32480> so much for that...
[15:44:15] * cmn32480 looks in his wallet adn pulls out a tumbleweed
[15:44:31] <nick> thanks for nothing ubisoft
[15:45:22] <nick> christmas was reasonable, nothing of note really, it's just an extended version of family dinner on sunday
[15:45:28] <nick> how about for you?
[15:45:33] <cmn32480> pretty good
[15:45:49] <cmn32480> if I can keep the kids from turning into zombies with the Xbox Santa dropepd off
[15:47:18] <nick> a new console is like the best xmas gift
[15:48:10] <cmn32480> for everybody but my daughter, I'd agree
[15:48:18] <cmn32480> her hands are too small for the controllers
[15:48:52] <nick> probably not for long though
[15:49:00] <cmn32480> a year or two
[15:49:04] <cmn32480> she's only three
[15:49:18] <nick> the xmas i got a PS1 is the only one i remember.
[15:49:55] <cmn32480> they got an xbox one
[15:50:02] <nick> the days of demo discs
[15:50:23] <cmn32480> the good old days
[15:50:34] <cmn32480> took me two hours to get thje bugger set up
[15:50:51] <cmn32480> between updates and figuring out how to get games to load....
[15:50:53] <nick> yeah i bet
[15:51:32] <nick> i'm still in shock over a new machines with windows 7 'windows updater needs to update before it can check for updates'
[15:51:52] <nick> what games have you got for the xbox?
[15:52:08] <nick> i'm not keeping up with the games, especially consoles now
[15:52:09] <cmn32480> so far Disney infinity 3
[15:52:15] <cmn32480> minecraft
[15:52:21] <cmn32480> and Gears of war
[15:52:49] <cmn32480> there are a few that were gotten when we thought we were getting an XBox 360, but I think those are gonna ahve to get traded in
[15:52:59] <cmn32480> as I'm pretty sure they aren't compatible.
[15:53:03] <nick> not a bad selection by the sounds of it
[15:53:06] <cmn32480> which is kinda bullshit....
[15:53:08] <nick> yeah, doubt it
[15:53:37] <cmn32480> dear god I need April to get here
[15:53:51] <nick> after the ps3 started that bullshit, i was done with consoles
[15:54:01] <nick> or 'home entertainment centres' as they apparently want to be now
[15:54:09] <cmn32480> really I didn't realize that the PS3 started that
[15:54:41] <nick> i'm glad we don't have to spend money on expensive and shit proprietary memory cards for save games now, but that's about it.
[15:54:59] <cmn32480> now you just need top add a hard drive...
[15:55:03] <nick> the original ps3, had backwards compatibility with ps1 and ps2
[15:55:13] <nick> but then it was only ps1, for later versions
[15:55:19] <cmn32480> really?
[15:55:21] <nick> yeah
[15:55:45] <cmn32480> amazing... as there are still millions of PS2 consoles out there and the used game market is still thriving
[15:55:55] <nick> the 'original 60GB PS3s' are the only ones that play PS2 games
[15:56:17] <nick> i keep considering buying a PS2
[15:56:21] <nick> i'm sure they're about to start going up in value, almost collectors items now
[15:56:21] <cmn32480> the Xbox backward compatibility is happening, but the number of games is rather limited at this point
[15:56:30] <cmn32480> I have one
[15:56:38] <cmn32480> have for 15 years adn change
[15:57:01] <nick> I had an early PS1, then when TombRadier3 came out, its firmware or whatever wasn't current enough, so sony swapped it for a newer one
[15:57:19] <cmn32480> the original ones that you could mod
[15:57:27] <cmn32480> the "newer" ones, you couldn't
[15:57:34] <cmn32480> I ahve one of the newer ones too
[15:57:41] <nick> PS1?
[15:57:44] <nick> or PS2?
[15:57:50] <cmn32480> newer PS1`
[15:57:54] <cmn32480> original PS2
[15:58:04] <cmn32480> Original Wii
[15:58:08] <cmn32480> and now an Xbox 1
[15:58:39] <nick> sounds like perhaps the kids are not the only ones going to be getting use from the xbox1 :p
[15:58:46] <cmn32480> ummmm
[15:58:47] <cmn32480> no
[15:58:56] <cmn32480> can't let it go to waste after all
[15:59:15] <cmn32480> :-)
[15:59:21] <nick> of course not
[16:00:28] <nick> i was anticipating spending the christmas break playing fallout4, but that didn't happen
[16:00:47] <cmn32480> I'm hoping to just not kill my kids
[16:00:51] <cmn32480> or anybody else's
[16:01:22] <nick> your holidays sound dangerous
[16:01:53] <cmn32480> my sister wants the whole family to go into Philadelphia on Monday to go sight seeing with her step kids...
[16:02:13] <cmn32480> oddly enough, I am blessedly thankful that I have to work.
[16:02:35] <nick> heh
[16:03:40] <cmn32480> don't get me wrong, I love my sister, and her step kids are really great...
[16:04:00] <cmn32480> i just don't think I can take any more family time right now
[16:04:09] <nick> that's fair enough
[16:04:29] <cmn32480> we are going to my parents house tomorrow to see them, my brother, sister and the assorted families
[16:04:49] <cmn32480> I'm thinking about drinking heavily before/during/after
[16:05:15] <nick> cant argue with that
[16:06:24] <cmn32480> other people will....
[16:06:27] <cmn32480> my wife
[16:06:28] <nick> i was planning on getting drunk at some point, but have not due to driving
[16:06:29] <cmn32480> my mother
[16:06:44] <cmn32480> I got the same trouble
[16:09:02] <nick> got some nice spiced rum
[16:09:05] <cmn32480> in all.. the grief from doing it won't be worht it
[16:09:12] <cmn32480> Lemonade Vodka
[16:12:45] <cmn32480> here goes nothigh... shutting down my entire work network in the hopes that all the boxen just need a rest to resolve the issue....
[16:24:51] <cmn32480> then I think Iwill go play Disney infinity
[16:25:04] <cmn32480> I think it fair that I get to kick them off....
[16:26:01] <nick> heh
