  1. On sale for about nine hours! http://store.steampowered.com/app/223510/
  2. I don't know what you could do with only the instructions for the game. Not a whole lot.
  3. Hitman: Absolution

    If people shoot at you, you've probably already done something wrong.
  4. Hitman: Absolution

    I was forced to shoot random guards in the first damn mission. Doesn't bode well. The disguise system is really weird: ever seen a film where the protagonist or the villain disguises himself as a cop? In Hitman, this would make you easier to find by cops. If you walk around Chinatown dressed as a chef, the actual chefs will call the cops on you. You can't do that shit.
  5. Oh, hey, great, I haven't been able to listen to the podcast since I don't have time and/or money to read the books. Now, I can, because I already have. I should add every novel I own to the suggestion thread so I can keep listening.
  6. Movie/TV recommendations

    Saw Life of Pi and loved it. I could watch that CGI tiger all day long. I can't believe they managed to make it so lifelike. CGI Tiger gets my Best Actor in a Supporting Role this year.

    Hah, whenever you get better at some facet of romantic dealings with women, you find new and surprising ways in which you suuuuck. I'm already laughing at myself for being such a fool, but here's hoping I can rectify an embarrassing situation
  8. Movie/TV recommendations

    Today I learned about Side by Side, a documentary produced by Keanu Reeves that discusses the differences between film and digital cinema. It's available through streaming services, so I spent some time trying to track it down and see it. However, none of them want my money because I don't live in the US, so I can't see it. The film adaptation of John Dies at the End was released on streaming services a couple of days ago, which I realized today. So after failing to watch Side by Side, I tried to give money to anyone who would accept it for the opportunity of seeing John Dies at the End, but again, nobody wants my money because I don't live in the US. So that's my movie watching experience for today.
  9. Hitman: Absolution

    If someone sees me playing this on Steam, it's because my little brother bought it for me as a Christmas present. I did not pay for nun assassins, nor did I ask for the game to be gifted to me
  10. Movie/TV recommendations

    I just saw Con Air with some friends and it was goddamn GLORIOUS.
  11. Life

    Money is the best.
  12. Honestly, I really don't think Star Trek theme music should have lyrics. It doesn't fit. What if the next season of Doctor Who had someone rapping to the theme song?
  13. I just looked it up on Youtube. It can't possibly be that pop song, can it?
  14. Life

    I read 'anvil'. Thankfully my mom knows about these things.
  15. Half-Life 3

    I heard Gaben finished HL3 as a Christmas present to the world. Should be on Steam tomorrow.
  16. GTA V

    You probably fly it in a qte or a cutscene.
  17. GTA V

    They're certainly fatter, so you have to be getting more tasty human flesh.
  18. Life

    Happy Christmas folks. My back is suddenly fucked for no reason.
  19. AirBuccaneers is a game where you fly a strange fantasy airship as a team and try to make other people's airships to fall out of the sky. I've been thinking it would make a perfect game to play with a Thumb crew. Now it's on sale! Anyone interested? http://store.steampowered.com/app/223630/
  20. Left 4 Thumbs - The Homethumbing 2

    Boy, this has been buried. We're still doing this on Sundays! Tonight was a lot of fun.
  21. Idle AirBuccaneers!

    Aww, no takers.
  22. Steam Linux

    Ben, it finds the games you already have that have Linux versions. I had 25. It opens the door for developers to take Linux seriously. I don't know, using Linux is still a crapshoot. My netbook runs Ubuntu now, which is far superior to using Windows on it. But because of some driver stuff, Linux would just break on my desktop if I tried to install hardware accelerated video drivers. Either it works fine or it just doesn't.
  23. Far Cry 3

    To be fair, from what I understand that's not very different from the behaviour of actual crocodiles.
