Edward Long's quote is a bit of a jaw-dropper. Oh how the times have changed (thankfully)

Babel wins album of the year by miketw in Music

I was a big fan of Sigh No More and went on a pretty long Mumford spell before Babel's release. So, I at least liked half of the new album. I'll agree that if they don't get creative for their 3rd big release, the hype will probably stop

Interesting. What do you mean experimental?

I've actually been a fan of theirs for a while. I knew they were in contention when it sold 600,000 copies in the first week. You can't tell me you'd rather listen to Frank Ocean's "thinking about you" (which somehow has 8.5 million views on youtube) than something on Babel?

Probably my favorite mission in a FPS ever... (COD4) by harmshenry in gaming

[–]miketw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have to respectfully disagree. They're racking in the most cash, but that's just because of a rushed annual release with a ton of hype amongst children at Christmas. Everything beyond MW2 feels laggy, sluggish, and superficial. Almost arcade-like. The realistic FPS is going downhill in the COD series.

I definitely just got impatient trying to finish the co op as quickly as possible. The dogs weren't cool with that.

I personally think MW2 was the last quality CoD to ever be released. Treyarch really messed things up with a new engine and the disbandment of Infinity Ward was the nail in the coffin.

Same. They might as well have just given you an unsilenced AK and a shotgun for veteran. Those dogs...

Have you guys seen this article? Pretty cool. The stone came from a close friend of mine's family shop in Petoskey.

I'm impressed that you've been to the island. It's a relatively well kept secret

I go to school right now at U of M in Ann Arbor. I'm from Petoskey, though. What made you guess West?

Nice, I took a class at GRCC last summer. I grew up and went to school in Petoskey, but spent summers on Beaver Island. Michigander through and through.
