  1. Kinetic typography in games

    Yeah, most of the stuff that has happened has been horrible shit (talking to dead guys, etc.), and the episodes have been boring. For some reason I've been sticking with it in hope of it becoming awesome, and I guess it became a habit, just another one of the shows I watch. I guess it just shook me out of it. Fun fact: I stopped watching CSI: New York when they ran a computer search on some shit, and the screen flashed "HOMOCIDE MATCH FOUND".
  2. Fuck your housemates, let's do it!
  3. 24" HD 1080p for under £200

    12:16 is also too small. I'd need 24:32 to be able to read on it.
  4. Where the fuck did I put my headset?!
  5. Kinetic typography in games

    Fringe can lick my stick. The moment they did the thing where they transformed a mathematical equation into a piano piece I just turned it off.
  6. 911 Call Transcripts

    These are just amazing.
  7. ‫‬‭‮‪‫‬‭‮Mirror's Edge

    I actually beat the world's best guy on the first leg of Playground One once, but then, of course, it all went to shit. I gave up the time trials thing after getting the achievements for unlocking all the tracks and getting 20 stars or whatever. On a lot of the tracks I ended up always fucking up some minor thing towards the end, and I got tired of restarting. I'm kind of contemplating completing the game on hard to get the 80gp, but I'm not sure yet. The speed runs can go fuck themselves.
  8. Black Mesa Source?

    I'm willing to bet top dollar they're simple 3d models with awesome textures.
  9. The All New XBox Gamertag Exchange Thread!

    Doing this (posting the image and letting it link to your profile) makes adding you as a friend easy peasy.
  10. Okay, listen up. We need 40 polls, one for each time zone, and some highly automated software that computes the best time-space coordinates for this to take place. It'll likely have to be Web 2.0 and run on Amazon EC2.
  11. Uncharted 2: Among Thieves

    Oh man, this is going to be awesome, if only for my knowing that the end game will probably be perfectly paced.
  12. Looks like Wednesday is in the lead!
  13. toblix: MON TUE WED THU SAT
  14. Okay, everyone who might be interested in playing this week, post something like this: deathSlay0r: TUE WED FRI <- The days you'll be able to play
  15. ‫‬‭‮‪‫‬‭‮Mirror's Edge

    Yeah, but I'm stupid. I thought it was a special click-click-click move that had to be performed in one go. I didn't realise the last two clicks could be done whenever.

    With wall-running, I only found out by accident that you can do the thing where you push the right bumper to turn around and then left trigger jump right off the wall.
  17. Kinetic typography in games

    The GTA IV intro was awesome. I actually got goosebumps at the moment the car was hoisted up in front of the logo.
  18. Fallout 3

    Well, that settles it. I'm purchasing this fucker.
  19. Fallout 3

    I have been looking for some official word on this, but I can't find out if the Steam version of FO3 has any problems with other installed software. I get the impression it may only be the installer on the retail version that does this, but I want to be sure before I shell out for the Steam version. Has anyone come across a definitive source on this?
  20. How...?! (Guitar Hero viral ad)

    I'm sorry, I... was that your stand up comedian sound?
  21. ‫‬‭‮‪‫‬‭‮Mirror's Edge

    No, I'm a brassiere.
  22. ‫‬‭‮‪‫‬‭‮Mirror's Edge

    Like Chris Remo says, games are always ruined by a bunch of suits putting guns everywhere. I actually didn't mind the combat that was one-way. That is, guys were coming out of doorways shooting at you, and it worked like the wall of fire in side-scrollers, creating an incentive to haul ass. The direct combat was pretty weak though, especially when you were in a room with a group of baddies. I always managed to get them, but I think I'd prefer escaping their hail of bullets in some spectacular fashion.

    Is it around 5:55 on this?
  24. GET THE FUCK ON GTA NOW
