  1. Idle Forums Game Club - Killer 7 edition

    I just want to say that being an adult fucking sucks.
  2. Idle Forums Game Club - Killer 7 edition

    Ah! I missed out, so much work, I'll have to catch up maybe later this week on an evening.
  3. Unnecessary Comical Picture Thread

    I personally just thought the comic was ugly, too preachy, way too long and and over the top for the subject matter, all sexuality aside so I just ignored it. I think there's much more creative and engaging ways to express a social point via comics, but that's not helpful to the conversation at hand. Anyway, I am not sure if the reference to Custer's Revenge as "forbidden love" is a joke, El Muerte, which is funny in a twisted way, but if it's serious, I am thoroughly perplexed and maybe offended.
  4. My graphics card melted :(

    I have the 6750 and it's nice. They are affordable as far as graphics cards go at $150.

    Now it would just be spamming the hell out of their e-mails.

    Happy burly birthday muerte!

    That episode was depressing as hell. Even more depressing and confusing when you google it and find out Intellectual Ventures is funded by all the major tech companies as well as the shadier ones. Even more depressing upon seeing random internet people's comments totally missing the point of the episode where patents are fodder for companies to sit on and sue and instead arguing for the notion that to change the way patents work would ruin intellectual property in the United States. It's ridiculous there's just no clause that in order to patent something you must come up with a product, an invention, or something demonstrating it working before you can patent it. I never understood how you could just patent vague ideas and then sit around for a decade and wait for someone else to do it.

    See, it never ends up like an episode of House where they completely explain it and solve it through lots of trial and error and an epiphany in the last 10 minutes. Good to hear you are now in good health though.
  9. Recently completed video games

    Haha wow, Miffy. I might have to play that game even though the trailer someone posted here a week or so ago was incredibly ugly to me.

    :wtz::wtz: Yeah guys, stop playing games and go watch some fucking anime you perverts! Christ!

    I think you should go, it couldn't possibly not be fun unless maybe you were captured and sold into slavery.
  12. Wherein half-remembered games are identified

    There's actually another one of these somewhere on the forum that must have been made around early 2008 if you enjoy this one.

    Iwazaru and the manual says she has daytime clothes but acts rambunctious (or something like that), but it never really explains why. The way it's cut within the game is very jarring to me.
  14. Idle Forums Game Club - Killer 7 edition

    Woo, finished Sunset 01 yesterday morning. It was delightfully short, which is good because I had no time last week. I liked the art and story parts of that last part even those I still have no idea what was going on. Some stuff was already unsettling and creepy. Not too much to say so far. Anyone understand what's going on with the woman who saves your game and why she keeps instantly changing attitudes and clothes? Is this a spoiler if I ask? Yeah I really made the mistake doing that the first level. I ended up topping off at 999 dl and was not able to use any more way before then. So this second part I just let it happen and the limit seemed even tighter this time around on how much blood I could gather. I think I always use Dan so far. I don't like anyone else's gun besides Kaede and Kevin seems to not handle as well for me. I try not to use Kaede because I often fuck up and get hit and she will die quickly on me. I'm sort of curious what happens if I let Garcian die. I might try that soon. The biggest annoyance for me is this game does not have a soft reset from the controller. I sometimes want to screw around or go back a little but I'm obviously too lazy to get up and hit reset on the Wii.
  15. Tattoooooooo

    See, I've obviously never had a tattoo.
  16. Tattoooooooo

    I'm really confused about the plastic wrap. I am not sure if this is rude to be confused by it.
  17. Wherein half-remembered games are identified

    Why is that Chopper game nearly impossible to get running in the game again? If I die (after like half a second), all of my available characters are dead, even at some point where I can make a new one. That's mean. And why are people stealing Burger Time?
  18. Movie/TV recommendations

    Ah yes, Coraline was great. Henry Selick has weird twitches and smiles that really bother me when I see him in interviews. Other than that, I'm sure he's a great director of the animutation.
  19. Movie/TV recommendations

    :buyme: Awesome, glad you lenjoyed it. One of my favorite animated movies ever. Now go download Mind Game for free because no one felt it was important enough to release here. Maybe they were going to add a Minnie Mouse type of Bone with a bow and skirt in the story that would be created to look very similar to Britney? Kids love when the celebrity voice actors look similar to the character.
  20. Movie/TV recommendations

    I don't know if the Bone movie is still getting made, but last I heard they were doing it with mo-cap, which is unfortunate and seems incredibly out of place. Maybe they will stop now that Zemeckis has consistantly failed so miserably? But either way, sounds better than the earlier 3D Bone movie being worked on years ago with Nickelodeon producing that required song and dance sequences as well as someone (Thorn?) to be voiced by Britney Spears.

    Oops, I just assumed you had both a 360 and PS3 and preferred to get the 360 version. It was sort of a reply to Tank's idea to get the PS3 version.
  22. Something witty about OnLive

    Those are all still better speeds than what many can obtain in the U.S. in a big city without paying through the nose. Also a month ago AT&T has rolled out a 150 GB cap on DSL users in many areas, even though it's not necessary. Unfortunately in many areas AT&T is the only choice or one of two. I'm most going by this report I heard about a month or two ago: http://www.dslreports.com/shownews/Akamai-US-16th-In-Broadband-Speed-109597 OnLive should be targeting all of the countries in the top 10. But you're right, the United Kingdom is not there. So I really have no idea if it's a similar problem in rural areas there or what, but if it's below the United States on the given list, that's not good as it is a smaller country.
  23. Catherine

    Wouldn't it be cheaper to import the game from the U.S.? I thought our dollar was just abysmal now.
  24. Idle Forums Game Club - Killer 7 edition

    Yes! Another player! I'm stuck with a lot of stress and work at my new job this week. I might not get to play the next section until Sunday, which sucks, because I'm really looking forward to playing more.
  25. Unnecessary Comical Picture Thread

    Who is that guy with the Mario women? Is that Jesus or The Big Lebowski? The Burger King's illegitimate child?
