The Idle Book Club 1: The Sense of an Ending
toblix replied to Chris's topic in Idle Book Club Episodes
Adult Thumbs -
I'm game. My carburetter is all lubed up.

Satisfyingly, I got the 80/100 trophy as I neared the end. Since I knew I had missed some along the way, there was no point in looking for them anymore and I could focus on the game proper. So dumb.

Aaand done! What a fantastic game! Bonus points for having a proper explanation for the inevitable super-enemies towards the end. Also, more bonus points for keeping them to a minimum. Just when I was getting tired of their supernatural antics, I was back to regular mans. Most of all, of course, super thousand bonus point for having an ending that doesn't grind to a complete halt on some lame boss fight! The pacing of the whole last part of the game was fantastic because of it. Also, the guy from American Horror Story is a good Nathan Drake likeness. Also, I almost never smile, but I can't help it when they go completely overboard with the action. The aquarium section is one of my favorite game parts ever. Also, vaulting over a ledge and then falling through the floor is the new jumping a too-wide gap and having someone "I gotcha!" at the last minute.

The Arma 2 + Operation AH thread of 'let's try this again'
toblix replied to Lu 's topic in Multiplayer Networking
We had all sorts of fun, even though everyone blames me whenever something goes wrong, and it's sometimes even not my fault. Highlight of last night's operation: In the first base, I took an enemy soldier's gun. When we got to the airfield and started attacking, I discovered I had forgotten to take any ammunition with me, which left me with only a useless pistol. -
More here.

Oh, and my first game:

I want <html>! -
Not to spoil this thread, but everyone should stop playing and uninstall this rather fun game because of this.

Just when I had gotten all those new games going, this asshole had to make me go uninstall it.

No, both versions are fine. -
Just to be sure, I'd try running Combofix.

I think you have to do some patching to be able to play. -
I've pre-ordered the whole thing, and have been watching all of Telltale's videos, during the last of which I belive they spend more time doing the modern thing where they speak to an off-camera camera rather than the one that's actually recording (though, I guess, since it's not live, they're both recording, and it's done in editing). I'm very excited because whenever some part of Sam & Max or Monkey Island stood out as particularly great, it turned out Jake had made it, and with him being a designer on these games, I'm pretty sure they're going to be awesome.

omg that video should totally have ended with that unlikeable cunt messing so much with his phone that he lost control of their little car and swerved into oncoming traffic, killing both of them plus a busful of soon-to-be-retired cops!

It was a barrelful of chortles, to be sure! There was an unfortunate accident wherein Armchair and I were clearing an enemy fortification, and this guy Ben jumped out from behind a box and ran past me. My military reflexes kicked in and before I knew it I had neutralised what I perceived to be a lethal threat. We tried saving his life, but Armchair got his crow stuck in a fence. -
OH NO YOU DIDN'T!

Oh sweet, it's a Java game?

Three Moves Ahead joins Idle Thumbs
toblix replied to Roderick's topic in Idle Thumbs Episodes & Streams
HOLY FUCKING SHIT I've started listening to these guys, and they're excellent! When I first heard about this I was like "lol wahtever" but now I'm super stoked bro. For example, the Alpha Centauri one is great, and the Jagged Alliance one is even better! -
After playing Mass Effect 3 for a couple of hours, I gave up and saw the endings on Youtube.

That's it, I'm cancelling my subscription!
-
I can vouch for its interestingness!

It is a requirement to be able to say "third time's the charm!" -
I'm pretty sure I remember someone explaining that the ESRB would only accept a dedicated age gate for trailers and promo sites, and not the retrieval of the age from another source, though I obviously cannot back that up in any way.

I played Anachronox back in the day, and I totally loved it. Unfortunately I got to a point where my team was too weak to progress and gave up. Also, I pirated it back then, which means I'll of course buy it on GoG, though I probably won't actually play it.
