As for the OP.. dude, if you are that hung up on finding someone, yeah - these dating sites are going to try to single someone out for you. That means picking a fucking hair color. If you're not down with that, then quit the sites and just live your life.

The way I've figured it.. I had about seven relationships, three of which were marriage possibilities.

I am in NO fucking hurry to find the next one. When it finds me, I'll accept it if it's worth my while. Not sure where you're at, but I'm spending my time on me. If that's at bars, then so be it, but it probably won't. Most likely, it's at hikes, in the park, at work, at the gym, at home playing vidya with some beers and whiskey. It's me. Fuck the rest.

As a rule of thumb, spending ~$200 on a card will usually last you two years. It is NOT worth buying the latest/newest generation of cards. The $1k Titan? It doesn't outperform a GeForce GTX 680 at 1080p for any game on the market.

@jdh5153 If you're talking about the xbox that should be dropping this year, you're dreaming. Top of the line PC's will provide better performance within the first year of the console's life, and within 2-3 years, a ~$200 second-gen card will absolutely demolish the new console(s) provided that you also have 8+GB of DDR3 RAM and a modern CPU. I'm not trying to be a dick, but you're very wrong.

EDIT: Let me clarify in terms of longterm value. A $400 card and a $999 card will both sputter out at about the same time down the road in terms of performance. I had a Radeon HD 6870 for about a year and a half, and I bought it for probably $230 or less. I just bought a 7970 for $200 and change, and I expect to upgrade in another year and a half. If I bought a GeForce GTX 680 for $440-480, it would probably last me for 2-2.5 years for most games except the ones pushing tech boundaries late in that cycle. Part of it comes down to personal preference. I enjoy upgrading my card every year and a half or so. For ~$400, I get 3 years of staying on top of the curve, whereas if I bought the near top of the line GPU, I'd pay $450-1000 for the same 3 years.

I bought it after I heard there were new servers. The game works fine, but if you like SimCity, don't buy this game. It is crippled.

The city plot size is the same on every "region map." There's always only one "highway entrance" into this plot, and even though modders have already figured out how to scripthack it so that you can actually modify highways OUTSIDE OF YOUR PLOT and save the region to the server, Maxis/EA refuse to comment on the plot size or any of the other curiosities (idiotic traffic AI, fudged population numbers such that when you hit 500k sims, you actually only have 60k agents. Graph if curious: http://i.imgur.com/L8BPMiD.jpg

Do not buy the game. It's fun for 10-20 hours, but then the fun dies. There's nothing to do after that. The small plot areas and the completely non-random regions kill replayability.

I had more fun with this xpack than I did with WoL. I thought they added enough variation and perfected the pacing so that it never really got boring for me. I also really enjoyed talking to the Zerg crew, although I am so done with the idea of gathering essence.

EDIT: As for answering the question, I actually really enjoyed the mission where you're DBZ'ing against Narud. Not sure what it was, but it was tense and fairly difficult compared to the missions prior. I also really liked the ancient zerg fights.

I have managed to gather some of this game's essence, and I believe that once I have accumulated an adequate amount, I will feel very satisfied with this expansion pack in a time of DLC.

Seriously though, I'm enjoying the single player quite a bit. I wasn't expecting them to change it up as much as they did. I'm also enjoying the unranked multiplayer matchmaking. I can play without memorizing build orders and find my own way. Hell, I've even won a few.

Yes, but not for your reason given in the poll. Nintendo basically ponied up for Platinum to even be able to make Bayonetta 2, so it's going to be exclusive for at least a decent amount of time. If I were Nintendo, I would sell the rights to Sony for a PS4 version. I'm sure Sony would pay a decent amount for that.
