  1. FTL

    Breckon first released the oxygen from all rooms except his to kill his coworkers, then discovered he had no way to recover it and launched himself out of an airlock. His last words before being sucked into the void: "Congrats Nick Breeeeeee--"
  2. Games giveaway

    Search for Leeuwenhart, same avatar as here (minus festive decorations). Looking forward to playing some Awesomenauts with you!
  3. Games giveaway

    Correction: Awesomenauts is not OKAY, it is SUPER FUN AND ADDICTIVE. If someone doesn't take that off your hands within a week, I'm surrending this world to alien invaders.
  4. The Big LucasArts Playthrough

    MI2: I'm in a chapter 2 lull now, flinging about between Scabb, Booty and Phatt island, trying to find the map pieces. I've gotten some progress here and there, but there's an overall sense that I'm not hitting upon the right thing yet. Here's the thing I've got currently in my head:
  5. Movie/TV recommendations

    If you watch The Mighty Boosh, whatever you watch, watch the episode The Priest And The Beast from season 2.
  6. The Big LucasArts Playthrough

    MI2: Holy shit it's fun. Everything about this game is fantastic.
  7. Steam Trading Card

    Whoa, I just made a whopping 97 cents on selling a few jpegs!
  8. Steam Summer Getaway Sale

    Yeah, no, I think I'll go for Jurassic Park instead.
  9. Steam Summer Getaway Sale

    So, I've heard some relatively good things about this obscure title called The Waking Dead or something. It's 75% off now. Yesno?
  10. Steam Summer Getaway Sale

    Yeah, my threshold is pretty much 75% off or higher, since I'm not particularly aching for anything to play right now. My Steam library is bulging with truly spectacular games that I am playing through every evening of my current life (and it's fantastic). Tanu, this morning I bought Bastion as a gift for someone, and it was 2 pieces of eight and I believe I got a card for it.
  11. The (Video Game Music) Nostalgia Thread

    As far as holding two fingers together goes, that's still quite a ways off then. You can fit a whole idle thumb in there!
  12. Let's Draw Video Games

    Thanks! It's one of the more 'classic' joke set-ups. I should've learned the lesson there that less is more, but I didn't.
  13. Dark Souls(Demon's Souls successor)

    Got it at the Steam Sale and look forward to start playing it within the next five years from now.
  14. Movie/TV recommendations

    I just can't get around to understanding what Caden is all about in Synecdoche, New York. He goes through so many crazy things. I really, truly don't feel the film as depressing at all. I already explained that's because I never truly felt immersed in these characters, but rather was fascinated by their transcendent misery and struggles.

    Well, now you've made me shame myself by revealing my Deviantart page: http://captainaugust.deviantart.com/
  16. Steam Summer Getaway Sale

    Here is my wishlist for the Sale: + Night of the Rabbit + Rogue Legacy + Metal Sonic & Outrun DLC for Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed do not judge + Final Fantasy VII do judge + Probably a million games I'm forgetting right now
  17. Let's Draw Video Games

    Yeah, it's one of the comics I made for [N]Gamer, but I've been posting them every now and again on my deviantart. The objective was always to goof around with the big Nintendo properties. Err, it's not extremely new, but neither was it posted here before, and I'm not gonna batch post the whole collection. I don't know what the lady did to the bathroom!
  18. Steam Summer Getaway Sale

    Wow, Steam is totally crashing. First things to catch my eye (since they were in my wishlist): Daedalus Bundle (Chains of Satinav) for 20 euros To The Moon for 3 euros
  19. Movie/TV recommendations

    I just came out of Synecdoche, New York. What a fantastic film. So loaded with ideas! It was super morose and depressing, yet I was laughing out loud so many times. It's like... the film presents itself and its drama in this weird 'well, that's life!' kind of way, skipping between years in montages. The characters feel the full brunt of their emotions and are totally believable in it, but as a viewer you're just fascinated by the bizarre spectacle on the screen. I wasn't expecting this AT ALL.
  20. The (Video Game Music) Nostalgia Thread

    I approve of everything and anything related to Legend of Kyrandia. What a great series of games. There's hardly anything like it. Along with Lands of Lore 1 easily the best thing Westwood ever did. Shame they didn't seem to get the recognition for it, and abandoned everything but churning out Command & Conquer sequels. Malcolm's Revenge in particular made a huge impression on me, though I feel I'd now think Hand of Fate the best of the trilogy.
  21. Never listen to British pronunciation of names. You don't wanna know what they make of Van Gogh.
  22. The Big LucasArts Playthrough

    Monkey Island 2: It felt great giving Wally his monocle back! I was so sorry for the guy, whimpering in his (fantastic) room. Thanks, Mr. Brush!
  23. Life

    Once again, great synergy with your avatar there. I AM amused. More importantly though, did anything come out of the scan? Hope it's OK.
  24. The Big LucasArts Playthrough

    It's been ages since I played Dark Forces. I remember it as being a lot more sophisticated than Doom in terms of level design, atmosphere. Playability was more or less the same. I couldn't for the life of me tell you how it holds up today! But surely shooting stormtroopers is still every bit as fun today as it was 18 years ago?
