  1. Internet Message Boards to Not Read

    No Mutants Allowed. :frusty:
  2. FFS - two tier internet

    It couldn't be, because it's not client-side technology.
  3. Double Fine

    Hey, Grand Theft Auto is a brilliant title. I can't think of another game that has the name of a criminal offence.
  4. Recalled: Consolevania Towers ep.3

    The recalled thing is a completely obvious joke. I'm wondering why they just didn't put the links on their website, even after posting the "Recalled" notice. I liked the episode, nice seeing something a bit different this time. The Molyneux bit is brilliant.
  5. BioShock - They weren't kidding...

    The switchers I've used (non-mechanical) are so fucking shitty they're useless. I haven't even seen a mechanical switcher in the stores around here.
  6. Double Fine

    I don't know, Psychonauts never appealed to me as a name either.
  7. New people: Read this, say hi.

    We don't need no dirty dog lovers here.
  8. this is one hell of a longshot...

    Does it whine a lot?
  9. HDTWii

    How much battery do you have left on the thing?
  10. BioShock - They weren't kidding...

    Very odd. Most games are more or less unfinished when they are released, but I can't say how Bioshock would be one of them. Haven't had a single crash and it runs better than I expected.
  11. Manhunt 2 - From AO to AOK

    The US just has too many children.
  12. Relax, the future is nearly here

    Dan, I'd like you to be destroyed and replaced with a version that can spell 'people' correctly in his signature.
  13. Sneak preview: Death of a Clown

    I bow to you, Master (of Arts).
  14. BioShock - They weren't kidding...

    Cagney, the game keeps loading stuff into memory for some time after it lets you into the level. I have such slow memory and not a lot of it that it's apparent by most textures being almost blank for half a minute or so. That's probably what's happening for you.
  15. Manhunt 2 - From AO to AOK

    AO means 18 years and older, by the way, so it corresponds with 18+. The only difference is that European stores aren't such cowards.
  16. Relax, the future is nearly here

    Buy me a plane ticket and I will.
  17. Sam and Max Season 2

    I'll order the whole season as soon as the first episode gets released. The first season was the best value I've gotten for my gaming dollar for a long time.
  18. Zero Punctuation

    Oh, I remember playing that Spiderman game as a kid. Such a shitty game. Back then it was sometimes hard to realize that the game feels impossible to play not because you're not good enough, but because it's just a terrible game.
  19. Relax, the future is nearly here

    Flying takes a shitload more energy than traveling on ground. The trend is towards vehicles that consume less. Bound to fail, and that's presuming it even works. If it flies 10ft off the ground, wouldn't you hit traffic lights?
  20. BioShock - They weren't kidding...

    They don't always have the Little Sisters with them. They can lift the Sisters into those portholes.
  21. BioShock - They weren't kidding...

    Toblix, I'm drunk and I hope I don't sound too severe or anything, but you seem to be either disappointed, confused or both by any given game. The wharf area is still better than any given area of FEAR. It's great. All of Bioshock so far is great and I wager I've played more than you have. I don't know, please give games more of your time to prove themselves?
  22. BioShock - They weren't kidding...

    It is, but it's as fast as a 3.5GHz Intel system.
  23. BioShock - They weren't kidding...

    Well, you don't really have to think about it. 2400+ is as fast as Intel's 2.4GHz. Of course, these days it's a lot more complicated with your dual cores, quadruple cores and whatnot. I've no idea which AMD processor would be similar to Intel's Dual Core E6300, if any.
  24. Bioshock: PC or 360? [NO SPOILERS!]

    My passively cooled 8600GT is not quite passively cooled enough, so I'll have to go and switch it to a noisy fucker version tomorrow. Ah well... At least Bioshock runs surprisingly well. I should get more/faster RAM and shit, but this'll have to do.
