    Tell him I hate him, purely from jealousy but I still hate him :D Super hyped for the Xbox Hololens too, have you seen the demos from E3 when they use it to play Minecraft?

    Funny enough no, I'm actually more interested in either shooter games (i.e. Borderlands) or horror. I fell in love with the Oculus when I saw Markiplier play on it a while back. I thought it was the coolest thing I had ever seen. It just brought horror plays to a whole new level!

    Oh yeah, I would love to play some F.E.A.R. or Silent hill on the Oculus! It's worth checking out just to see how it works, the hololens is a bit different from your standard flavour of V.R. Unlike normal V.R., the hololens overlay things onto your real world environment and has a tonne of applications. From playing games like MC on your table top, pulling up interactive virtual assistance to help you with tasks like building furniture ot cooking a recipe etc to turning your entire wall into one big screen. It's very cool tech. Frankly though I would kill to get my hands on either, or both lol

    I really hope they combine any of this VR tech with Kinect tech, those two as a combination would give an insane amount of immersion.

    And I'm just a casual PC gamer, getting my hands on VR tech like that? Psh... my brain will very literally explode. My SO did show me a interesting clip of what seemed to be a semi full dive VR game place, meaning you could walk around it openly and pick up actual things, plus the biggie... no wires. It's hard to explain and I can't seem to find the clip of it. Seriously if someone knows what I'm talking about feel free to chime in here.

    i've been big into the whole Slenderman mythos online for a few years now. always thought it was cool how the internet created a new boogieman to scare people. anyhow, i finally sat down and played Slender- The Arrival on my PS3 this past weekend. yeah i dun goofed. played that at night with all the lights off and sound up- was terrifying.

    Oh dude... dude nooo. D:

    Morning fellow geekies! So I have a bit of a favor to ask, I am trying to look into another anime to watch (I go through shows pretty quick), does anyone have any good suggestions? Much appreciated! :)

    Can't wait for that either, it was the best one in my opinion :) I lost interest in Final Fantasy when they started messing around with the combat system, much prefer the earlier turn based systems!

    Yeah I agree with this completely sometimes having things seem too realistic isn't a good thing expecially for jrpgs

    Exactly! I always loved the little collectible card games too, probably spent as much time playing them as I did adventuring lol

    @xkitxkatxkaix if you have netflix, watch magi: labyrinth of magic then the second series, Magi: kingdom of magic... you will not be disappointed.

    Edit: Forgot about Death Note

    Thanks for this! I saw MAGI and added to my list but didn't realize there were 2 series! (I just checked though, I had the first one anyways)

    And on Netflix, you can go to Browse > Anime to see everything they've got. Some of my favorites are Madoka Magica, Kill la Kill, Inuyasha, Full Metal Alchemist, and the first season of Sword Art Online (second season, meh)

    Did I miss your list of what you have seen? I love the classics. But at the same time I am enjoying Sword Art Online, HunterXHunter and PsychoPass.

    Fist of the North Star & Space Dandy.
    I really must rewatch Fist of the North Star - and the awesomely bad movie version with Chris Penn.

    Thanks for all the input guys! @j_bark I think I *may* have given a mini list of what I've seen in the waaay beginning of the thread but here is what I have seen now:

    Sword Art Online - all caught up, anxiously waiting on new material
    Blue Exorcist - loved!
    Rosario Vampire - gotta admit, it was pretty cute but the ending was weak
    Vampire Knight - pretty good
    Girls Bravo - cute but kinda hard to get into really
    Attack on Titan - just started it, loving it
    Deadman Wonderland - why the hell did they not finish the anime
    Angel Beats -freaking in love
    Parasyte - weird but totally worth it
    My Love Story - cutest/most hilarious anime I've seen yet
    Kaze no Stigma - good but forgettable (it was mostly the intro song)
    Another - super good
    Elfen Lied - so guuuuuud
    Eden of the East - I need more of that in my life

    Mmm... pretty sure that's it. In short I like scifi stuff. Whodathunkit?! LOL But really though, anything with a great story line and good writing I'll dive right into.

    xkit: My Love Story is a hit out of the park. My wife and I kept busting out laughing because it kept striking too close to home (I'm a 6'2", 350+ member of the Brute Squad, and she's 4'10" - it was a little like they took our dating years and made an anime.)

    Thank you my friend!

    Anytime, always love to see more of that so feel free to keep them coming. I used to love, although quite different from your work, the Game Workshop models when I was younger. Did you paint that one yourself?
