    Seems about right. People love finding the weird and quirky in video games after all =P

  2. RespectfulGlove on November 11th, 2011 10:06 pm

    I can't think of anything witty basket related, so here's a picture of a basket building:

    Go nuts.

    final boss: Be ready to meet your maker……WHO TURNED OFF THE LIGHTS?

  4. TheInsaneWombat on November 11th, 2011 10:10 pm

    And thus was born Elder Halolz: Card Games on Motorcycles

  5. RespectfulGlove on November 11th, 2011 10:14 pm

    EPIC ADVENTURES IN BASKETS YOU SAY?!

  6. LiquidMountain on November 11th, 2011 10:14 pm

    Chris Redfield wearing a bucket, anyone?

  7. tinynewtman on November 11th, 2011 10:15 pm

    Guess that'll be one thing I need to put on my bucket list.
    Then again, what point is there stealing from others when you can't see their pail faces

  8. Dr. Furry on November 11th, 2011 10:18 pm

    i think i'm the only guy not playing skyrim right now. and i'm fine with that.

  9. Zeik on November 11th, 2011 10:22 pm

    zwoosh (sic) is a real basket case. Bethesda weaved together a new world for gamers to enjoy, but he decided to put a lid on the story for such gratuitous exploits. I am ashamed to say I laughed at his fruitful endeavor, but I doubt anyone would watch in this without a palm to the face.

    These basket puns are very difficult, I'm abraid.

  10. Vosur on November 11th, 2011 10:25 pm

    Yogi Bear would like to have a word with you.

  11. TheTopHatKid on November 11th, 2011 10:27 pm

    Same here. I'm waiting for the price on the GOTY edition to drop.
    (I am as presumptuous as I am poor and Irish.)

  12. Zeik on November 11th, 2011 10:27 pm

    I did not mean to picnic Soapdish's usual style for my post in the first place. It just felt right.

  13. TheInsaneWombat on November 11th, 2011 10:30 pm

    I have never played an Elder Scrolls game. And I'm totally okay with that.

  14. Dr. Furry on November 11th, 2011 10:31 pm

    Hahah, physics.

  17. Lordshadow on November 11th, 2011 10:59 pm

    This reminds me of the exploits of Adam Jensen: Refrigerator Bandit

  18. Lordshadow on November 11th, 2011 11:00 pm

    BASKET HEADS ON DRAGONCYCLES!

  19. Dash12345678 on November 11th, 2011 11:01 pm

    There needs to be an achievement for putting your first basket-on-a-head.

    Or maybe some sort of DLC mini-game.

  20. Lordshadow on November 11th, 2011 11:02 pm

    Back to /v/ with you, dirty pirate.

  21. Lordshadow on November 11th, 2011 11:13 pm

    Go nuts? Wouldn't that make us basket cases?

  22. Sir_Nox on November 11th, 2011 11:20 pm

    In there tongue he is Dohvakiin; BASKETCASE!

  23. TCC on November 11th, 2011 11:42 pm

    "their"

  24. TCC on November 11th, 2011 11:44 pm

    …. I'm sorry, I couldn't pay attention. I was too busy thinking about the imminent TF2 Promotional basket-hat.

  25. Deep Thought on November 12th, 2011 12:01 am

    *looks at empty wallet*
    *looks at SNES emulator*

    Makes my dick rock hard

  26. DiamyoAlex on November 12th, 2011 12:15 am

    Isn't basket head some sorta racial slur? I just don't remember what race it offends….

  27. tinynewtman on November 12th, 2011 12:23 am

    I didn't purchase it for two reasons.
    1: I don't much care for the series
    2: Skyward Sword.

  28. Skrist on November 12th, 2011 12:25 am

    Last two submission posted by Trunks instead of Shawn?
    I smell revolution!

    just because i'm not buying it doesn't mean i'm pirating it. hurr durr assuming makes an ass out of you and me

  30. Dr. Furry on November 12th, 2011 12:28 am

    >skyward sword
    lol buying games

  31. wolfpax181 on November 12th, 2011 12:32 am

    Buy Skyrim, get home, place in XBox. Red ring. Shake fist at sky.

  32. Lordshadow on November 12th, 2011 12:36 am

    Your assertion was not that buying SKYRIM was humorous to you, but buying GAMES was. It was perfectly logical to assume you pirate.

  33. Lordshadow on November 12th, 2011 12:39 am

    I think it's the Chinese, due to the hat that rice farmers/Raiden/FOOLISH SAMURAIS named Jack wear.

  34. Skrist on November 12th, 2011 12:49 am

    This Redfield meme sure makes us look like basket-cases.

  35. Skrist on November 12th, 2011 12:51 am

    Making an ass out of you? Too easy…

  36. Sid_Diddly on November 12th, 2011 1:06 am

    Team Fortress 2 has ruined us all. If game doesn't have hats; make hat exist.

  37. Lordshadow on November 12th, 2011 1:11 am

    God damn it, I already used that joke in response to the basket-house and you're more thumbed than me.

  38. Dycro on November 12th, 2011 1:23 am

    INSTALL SKYRIM FROM DISC

    I WANT THIS GAME TO PUT BASKETS ON EVERYTHING.

  40. Shady Kitsune on November 12th, 2011 1:28 am

    But Samurai are from Japan, and China hates Japan.

  41. Skrist on November 12th, 2011 1:34 am

    I actually didn't read any three of those comments… somehow. O_O
    But I'm guessing it's just because of Chris Memefield.

  42. Shady Kitsune on November 12th, 2011 1:35 am

    Hey bucket head!

    Where is the justice in this world?

  44. Skrist on November 12th, 2011 1:54 am

    Right here.
    <img src="http://images.hollywood.com/site/justice-league-cn07.jpg"&gt;
    There is no real justice in this world.

  45. Rexxmech on November 12th, 2011 1:56 am

    And not a single fuck was given that day…

  46. TheInsaneWombat on November 12th, 2011 2:20 am

    At this point, no. Just….. No. At least Courage Kratos was occasionally funny.

    Now a message to all:
    You'll find no sympathy from me if you post more of Chris Redface, only -1s.

  47. GazzyW007 on November 12th, 2011 3:25 am

    If I knife his head do I get ammo?

  48. cy85 on November 12th, 2011 4:03 am

    Gamefly (etc) is a legal alternative that fits within the parameters of his comment.

  49. cy85 on November 12th, 2011 4:04 am

    Duly noted.

  50. AManWithACloak on November 12th, 2011 4:26 am

    Nope.avi

  51. AManWithACloak on November 12th, 2011 4:31 am

    First sign of a TF2 addict: Finds ways to add hats to everything.
    Second sign: Mysterious plus sign above head.
    Third sign: Attempting to kill anyone with a different colored shirt.
    If third stage is reached, seek cover and hats immediately.

    Whoever made this video must have been a basketcase

  56. SHODAK on November 12th, 2011 6:32 am

    *sigh* When a hero's going around doing something like that while dragons threaten the land, you really know the world's gone to hell in a hand-basket.

  57. Oddwan on November 12th, 2011 7:11 am
  58. vash_ts on November 12th, 2011 8:18 am

    I didnt purchase for two reasons:
    -my PC cant run it
    -original games cost + -- $250 in argentina

  59. vash_ts on November 12th, 2011 8:19 am

    Do you have the time, to listen to me whine?

  60. Dimomarg on November 12th, 2011 9:31 am

    …QUICK, HIDE, THE HAT CRAZE IS INVADING SKYRIM D:

  61. Dr. Furry on November 12th, 2011 9:39 am

    no shit, i do all the work for you :V

  62. Dr. Furry on November 12th, 2011 9:40 am

    you instantly jump for the bad conclusion. not only are you making an ass out of you and me, but you're profiling me.

  63. Dr. Furry on November 12th, 2011 9:42 am

    i was about to make fun of your xbox, but for once it's actually not the worst system for the game. sucks that it bellied up, what model was it?

  64. DiamyoAlex on November 12th, 2011 1:09 pm

    FUS RO BASKET!

  65. TopHatEngineer on November 12th, 2011 1:59 pm

    i do not think this will end well.

    sad but tru

  67. Xenrek on November 12th, 2011 3:08 pm

    So, not that im epxecting anyone to answer me, this video being around a day old on the upload.

    I can't decide, should i get SKyrim on the computer, or on the Xbox 360?
    (before anyone asks, my computer has all the hardware to run the game on MAX graphics easily) i just dotn know if there is anything unique in the game for any of the consoles, or if certain things will only be Xbox DLC or what?

    please someone ease my pain and agony, and inform me as to what it would be best to play on, Xbox or PC… (really hoping PC, cause i want more games now that i have upgraded it)

  68. Drake148 on November 12th, 2011 3:41 pm

    This one is very good,indeed. Can't think of a proper name to this chris. but, his one should have been posted in the previous post, i would make more sence. anyway, it's okay, very funny.

  69. Drake148 on November 12th, 2011 3:45 pm

    now we have to choose sides, wich side will you join?
    <img src="http://creativebrief.thoughtdistrict.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/fable-3-trailer.jpg"&gt;

  70. Drake148 on November 12th, 2011 3:53 pm

    thats is in dollars?
    okay, back to the topic
    I won't buy it for 3 reasons:
    -half my money mysteriously disappeared when arkham city went out
    - and i think the other half will do the same when skyward sword came out
    -all the money i gather after that will go to my card games…no, i will not say it…… i can't… take it…. anymore….. CARD GAMES ON MOTORCYCLES!!!

  71. vash_ts on November 12th, 2011 4:02 pm

    mmnno, in pesos
    that would be aprox: 80 dollars

    and that is a lot for a game here… specially when you can get them pirate versions for free

  72. Drake148 on November 12th, 2011 4:11 pm

    here they cost around $35.000 (chilean's pesos) but the cost decreases with the time…. by the way $1 dolar= $500 (chilean's pesos)

  73. BTSnoogans on November 12th, 2011 5:47 pm

    AAAHHHHH!! VAAN!!!!! KILL IT WITH FIRE!!!!!!!
    In case that statement doesn't speak for itself, I'll let everyone know that I have a deep hatred for Vaan and everything else in Final Fantasy XII. I've played the whole series, THE WHOLE SERIES, MAN. I love every game except XII. Worst Final Fantasy, no. Worst RPG ever created. I'm sorry this wasn't a typical funny Halolz comment but I had to express my hatred of this poor excuse for a game. Whew.

  74. Ovahdrive on November 12th, 2011 5:57 pm

    He was a protagonist? I thought he was an NPC that joined your party for some random reason.

  77. tinynewtman on November 12th, 2011 10:09 pm

    Having never pirated a game (except for old SNES/GBA ROMs), does the quality of a pirated version of a game match the convenience of an actual copy?

  78. vash_ts on November 12th, 2011 10:16 pm

    a game pirated by someone who really knows how to do it, has no difference over an original game, except maybe for some online issues

  79. Shady Kitsune on November 13th, 2011 1:35 am

    *Relevant

  80. Mindlessinvalid on November 13th, 2011 2:08 am

    Then some asshole tells you that you can set the autosave rate in the settings and that the game isn't all that hard.

    I'm on the hardest difficulty and I hardly break a sweat except during a dragon battle, and even then conjuration saves my ass.

    I've got 2 levels of Ice form already, and the starter shouts (upgraded unrelenting force and whirlwind sprint) and I've died a grand total of once.

    I will never again take my eyes off the floor for even a second. That one pressure plate and the spinning spike wall in the dragonclaw dungeon near riverwood got in a cheap shot when I was busy roasting draugr.

  81. Mindlessinvalid on November 13th, 2011 2:10 am

    Does Shaun represent the Stormcloaks or the Imperials?

  82. Mindlessinvalid on November 13th, 2011 2:18 am

    But they DID have hats already. They just weren't outlandish enough. I already have a wardrobe full of magic hats made by orphans and then enchanted using the souls of said orphans (outsourcing the soul gems was the smartest thing I've done.)

    I even have a hat that makes conjuration easier, thus increasing my capacity to kill people for their souls and headgear(though I don't recall actually being able to take people souls, I haven't really tried that).

  83. Mindlessinvalid on November 13th, 2011 3:17 am

    I guess I need to make this a mod now. I just got the wabbajack, so it's only fitting that I have equally silly headgear.

    I'm disappointed though, I liked the quest for the wabbajack from oblivion better.

    Then again, it's hard to top summoning a hailstorm of flaming dogs upon a kajhiit(cat people) village in an attempt to re-enact their version of the signs of the apocalypse.

    EDIT: and now it dawns on me that they construction kit probably isn't out yet.

  84. Mindlessinvalid on November 13th, 2011 3:24 am

    Step 1: Wabbajack powerful monsters into harmless ones.
    Step 2: When the duration is almost up, use a long duration frenzy on said monsters.
    Step 3: Monster is now frenzied (even if the spell was normally too weak to affect it) and will fight its comrades.
    Step 4: Finish off the survivors with your sexy voice (Ice Form Shout)
    Step 5: ?????????
    Step 6: Profit!

  85. Dycro on November 13th, 2011 6:15 am

    Get hit by giant.

    Fly.

    As for the dragon battles 70% of the time I fight a dragon it gets distracted by a passing mudcrab….

    It's all "RAWR I WILL FEAST ON YOUR FLES-- WHOA! CRAB BATTLE!!"
