        Oh, I have it wrong. They're on Sinclair (which owns them), not HDNet anymore. Still same show, though. -- nm - Tim Jun 17, 12:54
    - I feel like Bullet Club only works because they're a bunch of jerk Americans in a Japanese promotion. -- nm - Tim Jun 17, 12:43 2
      - I think you're right. -- nm - Remlik Jun 17, 12:43 1

    - Did you see the initial list of BC games? It's...tiny. -- nm - Shaun Jun 17, 12:19 11
      - They'll get more game developers to get onboard and the games I'm playing on the 360 are rather recent so they should port over soon enough. -- nm - Krusty Jun 17, 13:00 5
        
        Did you know that if you buy Fallout 4 for xbone you get Fallout 3 also with it - eag Jun 17, 13:06 4
        
        I did but I already have Fallout 3 and New Vegas. Nice bonus for people that haven't played the previous game. -- nm - Krusty Jun 17, 13:12 3
        
        I can see myself in Fallout 4 - eag Jun 17, 13:20 2
        
        I'm the opposite. I don't really care about setting up my own town or caravan. I just want to wander around doing jobs and fighting mutated monsters. -- nm - Krusty Jun 17, 13:22 1

        I can't see Gears and Halo making the list as they already or will have remasters done. -- nm - Shaun Jun 17, 12:25
  - I turn the PS3 on when I want to play a physical movie disc. I probably haven't done that in at least a year. -- nm - Ender Jun 17, 12:17 1
    - PS3 was my main tv's media machine, but now with the PS4 media app, it might be time to retire it. - Shaun Jun 17, 12:19
  - Same. I have 3 physical games for PS3. I am not a collector. -- nm - Shaun Jun 17, 12:16 3
    - I have probably around 10, but that's because the resale value was so low I didn't think it was worth it - decline Jun 17, 12:18 2
      - I do have a Steam like library of unplayed PS+ freebies though. -- nm - Shaun Jun 17, 12:22 1

  - (equivalent album units: the crap new metric that determines the Billboard 200, enough streams of an album count as a sale.) - Tim Jun 17, 12:15
- " a" or " the"? -- nm - Pippy the Low Sparrow Jun 17, 12:13 4
  - "The" #1, but I was surprised to see them have "a" #1. -- nm - Spawn Jun 17, 12:16 3
    - Previous album was #2. One before that was #3. -- nm - ty97 Jun 17, 12:20 2
      - All lower than #1! - Spawn Jun 17, 12:21 1
