Title: Argh, dammit!
Post by: Twilight Wolf on January 06, 2009, 08:17:25 PM
I was having what was turning out to be one of my best matches ever in "Team Fortress 2" when my Dualshock 3 decided to die on me. I am now charging it so I can kick *booty* later on.

On the bright side...* It could have died in a much worse place than the respawn.

*A humorous (and relevant) "Team Fortress 2" reference.

That bear is irrelevant to the situation on hand.  Congratulations on failing.

However, you may take solace in knowing that others have failed harder than you did just now.  I'll give you a kukie if you can name an example.

YOU'RE ALL MISSING THE POINT

The point is that Murphy's Law always comes through.

Well, except for the fact that I managed to beat my record for headshots as the Sniper twice in the same match after I had charged my controller. (My old record was two. I got five, an enemy sniper headshot'd me, and then I got eight more headshots before getting killed again.)

Also except for the fact that I managed to find both "Okami" and "Half-Life" for the PS2 when I was at Game Force today. They had just gotten "Okami" earlier that day, so I bought it, seeing as the chances of that ever happening again are very slim (and that it was only $15, too; cheaper than buying it online). I was then blown away when I found "Half-Life," as well, because those were the two PS2 games I'd been searching for for months, and "Half-Life" was cheap: five bucks! Beautiful condition, too; both games are. I then finished off my buying by getting a copy of "Flashback: The Quest for Identity" and "Columns III" for the Sega Genesis, and I got three bucks off "Columns III." Overall, I spent just a hair under $29 buying those games ($28.99 with tax was the grand total).

Then I saw my cousin Ethan at Wal-Mart, so we got to visit with each other for a while. Haven't seen him for a while, so it was a nice surprise.

Thus ends my tale of pointlessness.

However, my cold has progressed to the point where I have a runny nose all the time, which woke me up about 5:30 AM today.

I can sympathize with you Twilight Wolf.

My controller died in the middle of a Tournament I was in on Metal Gear Online.

There was a 20 kill limit, and we were both at 19-19.  Then my controller died and I got shot in the head.

Post by: Twilight Wolf on January 08, 2009, 04:45:56 PM
Ooh, that double-sucks.

Perhaps we should both pay a little more heed to that on-screen warning about the battery being low... but the thing is, I've had varied time with a low-battery warning: I got about an hour out of my controller once after it gave me the warning, then next time it was an hour and a half. (I'm thinking I had rumble enabled the first time and not the second time.)

Also, Tacheon, funny picture, but I'd still like for you and Shika to clarify on what your posts mean.

If you missed something, then you should read the topic from the first post.

What?  No.  TW was complaining that his PS3 controller died on him while he was playing a game.

It's not that nobody talks to me, it's just that they say stuff I don't understand and refuse to explain when I ask them to. Hence the "Ugh... never mind," because I knew how it was going to be.

You contradicted yourself in those posts. First you said nobody talked to you, then when I said "It's not that nobody talks to me, it's just that...", you said "that's how it was with me." So which is it, did people talk to you or not?
