I live in the Caribbean. The Virgin Islands to be exact. It's ridiculously hot :| but..the bright side is, we have a shit ton of beaches.

I lived in the Caribbean in the past. I found the weather to be perfect. Florida gets as hot as desert in summer, and cold as the arctic in winter.

Ive only been there for vacation over Spring Break and it can be too warm, I mean yes the weather was super nice and sunny though.

It makes the game's experience better.

That's really up to personal preference. I don't really give two shit about actually having 3D on. and it's hardly what I would call necessary.



The last summer where I lived had a mean temperature of about 12-13 degrees. Woop-de-doop!

I find it annoying when people play with the 3D off. It's like a waste of the 3D.

Always bitching about "It hurts my eyes!"

It's more the fact that the 3D requires you to keep that handheld device steady at all times that has me ticked off most of the time. Still, I turn on the 3D at a very low height whenever I can ^^

I've never had that problem. The only time the 3D gives me issues in sunlight, and I play my 3DS outside very rarely.

and cold as the arctic in winter.

This Michigander finds that unlikely.

I do agree, though, that the southeastern U.S. in general has awful, awful summers.
I spent nearly my whole life south of the Tropic of Cancer. I am way more sensitive to cold than someone from Michigan.

Well then maybe you shouldn't describe it as "cold as the arctic" until you know what truly cold temperatures feel like? ;-)

Yep, terribly hot in summer and horribly humid -_-

Yeah, it really is the humidity that makes it awful. That's why it's so shitty even as far north as Baltimore or D.C.

Two weeks ago the general temperature was 2-5 degrees, this week it was 8-14 degrees, next week it will be 2-5 degrees again. Classic Dutch weather.

We had a snowstorm last week and it'll be warm this week, typical March in Virginia.

@Goodbye Blue Monday; I've been to Canada in the winter. It conveniently didn't snow, but it was extremely cold. That was only once, though.

Ok. I still don't think it's quite the same if you don't have to live with a cold, snowy winter for a whole season, though.

Hence why I'm ready for the New England winter here to end, like, right now.

We have pretty clear weather now. It's been steady at between -12 and -14 at night and about -4 to -8 in the daytime. I expect it to get warmer soon though. And I can't really complain about anything when we've got sun either.

I'm curios to what your definition of extremely cold is.

A Norwegian arguing about the definition of extreme cold. This'll be fun to watch.

It's more that's it's interesting to see what other people think of as cold.

The roles can easily be reversed, I don't exactly thrive when the temperature gets too high (emphasis on too).

Ugh, this Brotherhood episode is boring. It's pretty much all flashbacks from earlier episodes.

But there are a few new parts, so I watch anyway.

I guess extreme cold here would be anything below -5 degrees in the daytime? Probably lower, last decade has just had soft winters so I don't have much experience with really cold winters. Extreme heat would be above 30 degrees.

God, I am so American sometimes. Celsius temperatures always give me a double take.

Right now in Boston it's 31 F, so that's about half a degree below zero in Celsius.

It's been much colder than that this winter, though. There was a major cold snap a couple months ago where it was below zero Fahrenheit.

I consider 16 degrees centigrade pretty chilly. I'm sure that's a swealtering summer day for H-Con or Mijzelffan.
