  1. Black Friday Deals

    !!WARNING!! For anyone thinking of buying the THQ pack and gifting the games they already own: You can't do this. The only games you can gift if you already have them are valve titles! !!WARNING!!
  2. more meaningful game mechanics

    Didn't they do exactly that with the extra levels they brought out? A set of abstract parcours you had to traverse? after a quick trip to google: http://www.mirrorsedge.com/ls/en/index.asp#/thewire/
  3. Left 4 Thumbs 2

    Yeah I had some intense & fun games last night with Bigjko and Armchair General (and a bunch of shacknews people) Scavenge is the most fun mode after co-op for me so far.
  4. The Dancing Thumb (aka: music recommendations)

    I already posted this in bbX1138's çool music to impress my friends'-thread. But I decided to post it here as well: I made a new mixset! Listen to it here It's a techno set that starts slow and builds up to some stomping techno. Complete with silly bonus happy hardcore song! Please let me know what you think!
  5. goty.cx 2009?

    The current steam discount for plants vs zombies reminded me that I totally forgot about this excellent title. Another honourable mention for this one for me
  6. goty.cx 2009?

    [edit] Are we splitting this in PC/360/PS3/wii categories? [edit part deux] OK, here's my goty: Left 4 dead 2 It took an already incredibly great game and made it ten times as awesome. Not only is the level design so much better, everything just works so perfectly together to force teamplay and create amazing stories every time you play. Honorable mentions - Shadow complex. This is platform based exploring refined to it finest. - Dawn of war II. For revolutionizing RTS gameplay. - Torchlight. For realizing what diablo (and it's clones) are all about. And giving it to you in spades. - Trine. How could I forget this one?!
  7. Obligatory comical YouTube thread

    two little gems I found via shacknews: lkYVazguJCY C_g2vTFert4
  8. Cool music to impress my friends

    Or you could put on one of my mixsets! http://mix.everyonelookbusy.net/
  9. Books, books, books...

    I really like all of Alastair Reynolds work. It is mostly space opera but with a solaris/moon/bladerunner feel to it. I think you'll like century rain in particular.
  10. Happy Birthday!

    Thanks guys! Now If you will excuse me I need to get mildly drunk to forget the fact that I'm now 30 years old
  11. Movie/TV recommendations

    At least fringe is still fun to watch. [edit]Oh and the discussion about kids these days reminded me of this XKCD comic: http://xkcd.com/647/ [edit part II] I also watched the taking of Pelham 123. What a generic, by the numbers movie that was.The acting was ok. But the script was more than boring. I have to confess that I saw Transformers 2 as well. I knew it was bad. But didn't expect it to be this bad.

  17. Illegal house party

    I just got back from an illegal house party and it was awesome. Right under one of Hollands busiest Highways I had the party of my life. I don't know how to top this insane evening. If any of you is up for an insane evening out and happens to be near my place, give me a call!:woohoo::fries:
  18. Illegal house party
