    But it's already an easy process to use your big screen TV as your PC monitor, and a gaming pad.
    It is?

    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    Scar's right. There were two kinds of properties you could buy in Vice City. You could buy apartments and hotels and they become save spots, or you could buy businesses like an ice cream factory, a cab company or a film studio and they make income.
    Man I still don't remember that. I played the shit out of vice city more than any other GTA too.

    And by film, we mean porn, right?

    Snagged a brand new PS3 GTAV 500GB bundle for $229 today. My 60gb is pretty full up. I figure I can sell my old one and that copy of GTAV for around $150 and then it will have only cost me $80 for a new PS3 with over 400 gigs more of space.

    Having only 80 GB of space has been pretty annoying with PS Plus. Have to complete / give up on one months games to play the next months. I wish you could store games on external hard drives.

    You can. The PS3 can use any external HD.

    Nope - my bad. Sorry. You can swap out the internal HD for a bigger one, though.

    Too much work for such an old machine. Assassin's Creed III is really boring anyway, so happy to delete it and give Far Cry III and Gianna Sisters a go next month.

    A little quick prediction from Uncle Bac0n: Trevor is going to be Scar's favorite video game character of all time.
    That certainly was a great introduction for Trevor. :lol:

    Or you could have spent $50 and replaced the drive yourself and not have to sell anything.

    It's easier to swap out the hard drive than upgrading an iPhone.

    How about this analogy.

    It's easier (and faster) to swap out the hard drive than doing your taxes.

    Anyway, GTAV is amazing.

    Wait...in what country do you not get taxed automatically on your paychecks? Don't you live in the USA, Duke?

    You pay taxes automatically. Duke's talking about filing them at the end of the fiscal year.

    Weird analogy either way.

    I was trying to think of analogy that everyone would be required to do and hates doing and compare it to how easy it is to swap out a freakin hard drive and have the PS3 rebuild it automatically for you.

    Someone else think of one then.

    In the second part of its cryptic announcement series, Valve Software announced it is creating its own hardware for living room gaming — called Steam Machines — and is asking 300 Steam users to beta test the products it currently has in development.

    Valve did not reveal anything about the Steam Machines, only that several different models exist, all designed for gamers to enjoy PC gaming through their television.

    "Entertainment is not a one-size-fits-all world. We want you to be able to choose the hardware that makes sense for you, so we are working with multiple partners to bring a variety of Steam gaming machines to market during 2014, all of them running SteamOS," the announcement page said.

    On Monday, Valve announced SteamOS, a Linux-based operating system designed to allow players to stream games on televisions. It will work on Steam Machines and also be available for third parties to build hardware around.

    There are around 3,000 games on Steam right now, and Valve said hundreds of them are already compatible with its new operating system, but the list hasn't been revealed.

    Steam users can sign up to be in the Steam Box beta pool by completing five steps by Oct. 25. On that day, the pool will be closed and users will be notified if they've been selected. The five steps are:

    Join the Steam Universe community group

    Agree to the Steam Hardware Beta Terms and Conditions

    Make 10 Steam friends (if you haven't already)

    Create a public Steam Community profile (if you haven't already)

    Play a game using a gamepad in Big Picture mode

    Beta users will receive their Steam Machines by the end of the year, according to Valve, and retail versions will be out in 2014.

    There has been speculation for years that secretive Valve Software was planning on entering the hardware business. The company still has one more announcement related to SteamOS and the Steam Machine; its cryptic website said it will come at Friday at 1 p.m. ET.

    I still find it kind of funny how Valve refuses to call their Steambox or whatever it is a "console".

    They're so terrified of incurring the wrath of their psychotically loyal PC gaming master race fans.
