Never trust a man that orders his steak well-done

Unless he only eats out at Denny's

In which case you don't trust him anyways

It's steep but it's an option if you can't get DirecTV and don't want to spend four hours in a sports bar every Sunday (like me)

Never trust a man who tries to judge people by what they eat or how they eat it. Probably fake wannabe snob. Nothing wrong with Denny's or anywhere else somebody wants to eat.

The Denny's closest to my place closes between 2am and 6am which is stupid because those are the only acceptable hours to eat there if you're drunk.

Says the guy who eats steak well done.

Seriously. Jerky is much cheaper.

The ps3 is not worth it IMO. I own all three current gen systems, and the PS3 is my 2nd favorite.

For me it's the online, the mics and voice communications are shoddy. I hate trying to play battlefield with thrasher when the servers are a bit laggy, I can barely hear anything. The dashboard layout is slick but it runs slowly and is frustrating at times. Trying to send an invite to someone takes far too long, and I hate how incoming messages make no noise. It's easy to not notice invites.

Also I dont care for the controller, I know it's a near classic but the 360 feels much better with its great trigger set up.

On the positive it's quieter than my early model 360. Blu-ray is nice too.

Buying one isnt a bad idea but, I play my 360 atleast 3 times more than my ps3.

Luckily I can afford to eat whatever I want how I want. FYI I will eat a well done steak but not how I cook it.

There's nothing wrong with ps3 online. The lag is probably from somebody's connection.

I think nerd-vol needs to check his connection, because I don't hear anybody cut out but him. Maybe it's Comcast, because we live near each other, so maybe both our connections are shoddy.

Do you have trouble hearing us, rocky?

If you're eating your steak well done do me a favor and next time you buy one take it home and marinade it over night then pre heat your grill to about 275 degrees. Then remove the steak from the marinade and toss it in the trash and eat the paper the butcher wrapped it in..after you char it to well done of course.

Makes just as much sense.

About as much sense as worrying what the hell people eat.
