  1. Humble Bundle subscription service

    I'd love it if someone like Venus Patrol did this in combination with their magazine. I used to get Playstation Magazine just for the demo-discs; seems like a similar appeal. One thing I'd really like the service to include is a central discussion-hub for the games as they come out. I think a big opportunity for a service like this is just having lots of people looking at the same game at the same time regardless of when it came out in other channels.

    Oh My God that video fucking gave me a headache I laughed so long.
  3. Feminism

    What is the meaning of "honey-badger"?
  4. I hate working repeatitive jobs in games. I hated the hamster-wheel in Super Paper Mario. I hate the tofu-factory in Sometimes Always Monsters. Its like "I get it, tedious labor for a pittance. Can I go and play the rest of the game now?" There is no rest-of-the game in Space Mouse because it isn't about a broader world in which jobs are necessary to get what you want. All you do in Space Mouse is work, commute, and complain. The best part of this game is that you have a ride. There are about three things in this game and one of them is your ride. With games this short, everything reeks of essentiality. The fact that you have a ride is essential. It reminds me of the shitty jobs I had where I had a ride too. Space Mouse.
  5. Telling my parents about my sister moving out

    Thanks for the update. Sounds like things are working out.
  6. Feminism

    The idea is to make everyone feel included. If someone doesn't feel included, regardless of whether or not it is due to a policy or act that is objectively agreed upon as sexist, they don't feel included; they are the authority on this. When creating policies, then improvements of things that are commonly seen as exclusive in nature should be prioritized. But there isn't a point at which improvements shouldn't be sought after until every feels included.
  7. Oculus rift

    I'm hoping they announce official Oculus Rift support for the PC version of GTA 5. I also hope that they include a way to skip the torture-scene.
  8. Oculus rift

    I can't wait. Now that you've tried the translational tracking, what gameplay ideas come to mind.
  9. Yup. I forget that some of the tites exist because I just don't see their names around.
  10. There is something consumeristically satisfying about just looking through all the used titles at a GameStop.
  11. How does the Walking Dead/ Wolf Among Us system compare?
  12. Nintendo 3DS

    Capt. Hastings wants a 2ds so she can play Phoenix Wright versus Professor Layton. I haven't been paying attention to 3ds stuff because I didn't think we would ever buy one. My plan is to wait a month or two for a good promotion. Also it seems that a new(?) download only Phoenix Wright game has already come out? Oh and she fucking loved 3d picross on the DS, is pushmo similar? Does anything similar to Picross 3d benifit from the 3d functionality of the device?
  13. The 'Does this thread exist?' thread

    Now I want an armadillo done in the style of a Samurai's armor.
  14. anime

    I haven't seen much anime but I just watched 6 episodes of Knights of Sidonia because I couldn't sleep and enjoyed them. It's like Silver Hawks and Voltron with some dating-sim mixed in. I like the details of the world like that they get naked to photosynthesize, but yet they are still bashful.
  15. iOS Gaming

    Has anyone been impressed with Madefire Motion Comics? The description suggests that some of them are choose your own adventure. Has anyone tried it out?
  16. New people: Read this, say hi.

    Thanks for using a simple and easy-to-remember algorithm in your handle's repeating letters. If I ever need to type it, you've made it that much easier.
  17. The 'Does this thread exist?' thread

    Sorry, I thought the broken link was due to my phone. Here is another posting https://www.idlethumbs.net/forums/topic/6803-unnecessary-comical-picture-thread/page-60

  19. For the week of July 28th, 2014 we will be playing: Space Mouse by thecatamites You can download the single game from here for free Or you can buy the entire collection of 50 games from here.
  20. Dreams!

    I love thinking that your brain had to come up with something that would be in the safe once y'all opened it. "uh, a mario-game." Then it has to figure out a reason that a mario-game would be so valuable. " uh, because it's the only one that can be played on the vita." It's like your dreaming-brain is some kid in elementary school who is a horrible liar.
  21. I know that this is a reference to "video games." but now I am inspired to take photos of game-displays at local stores and upload them here.
  22. I will be posting Space Mouse tommorow as planned, but thecatamites just released a new collection and I have to mention that I very much like 03. ♫ Tarantella Sicilienne ♫ I still don't know how to talk about these games. Tarantella Sicilienne, is a small game I really like; a lot.
  23. Looks like the prototype is playable for those willing to pay $80 http://www.mohawkgames.com/2014/07/21/play-the-prototype/
  24. Oculus rift

    Here is a pretty thorough, 4-page write-up on the new development-kit. http://www.roadtovr.com/road-vr-dk2-arrived-unboxing-photos-early-impressions/ Summary: Positional tracking lets you look over the side of the boat and dark areas are darker.
