  1. General Video Game Deals Thread

    I don't have all soundtracks, and I only don't have Amnesia ....
  2. The Dancing Thumb (aka: music recommendations)

    In case you're into this stuff. Game Music Bundle #3 is out now: http://www.gamemusicbundle.com/
  3. Yeah, I was hoping people would be confused by that and that they would get lost for a bit before putting 1 and 1 together. But now I realize that it didn't work because you would get close enough to the sign by going to the wrong coordinates. Guess what you get for creating a puzzle backwards :/
  4. IDLE THUMBS KICKSTARTER!

    Just use the same size you picked for the DFA Backer T-Shirt
  5. Hmm.. 15 minutes is a bit short.
  6. Gifts - Stuff for Free

    Where does everybody get those torchlight keys from?
  7. It's just a series of signs. So it's repeatable.
  8. How long did it take you to figure out the signs? I have no idea on how difficult I made it.
  9. Show me your desk/gaming space

    You can't go wrong if an office Terje™
  10. I made a little quest on the server. It starts on the bottom floor of spawn (behind the dragon egg). It's a series of riddles on signs, and could be quite difficult. (note, you can post clues/answers here if you like, but use spoiler tags)
  11. Show me your desk/gaming space

    that's not a garden chair, that's one of those cheap IKEA folding chairs
  12. What does your view look like?

    Damn... I really need to upgrade my view. Luckily, that's going to happen in October.
  13. Movie/TV recommendations

    Nah, those are the hairstyles are going to make a comeback in the next 7 years (Blade Runner is set in 2019)
  14. Movie/TV recommendations

    Watched some orange and teal again. This time is was called: Blade Runner: The Final Cut. I never watched the Final Cut before, and the last time I saw Blade Runner was quite a few years back (probably 10+). Just kidding about the orange and teal, even though the movie is heavy on the orange and teal, it's not the usual color grading. Or at least, I don't think so, and there's no hint about it on the internets. So, it's orange and teal by simply lighting. Anyway... back to this HD version: My god... this movie is awesome, and the details. It really aged well. If it wasn't for the various shitty crap they usually pull off these days, Blade Runner looks like it was released this year, the special effects are that good. And it only now struck me, Deus Ex is heavily influenced by Blade Runner's style, specially DX:HR, specially Jensen's house
  15. Maybe you should first finish the stuff you are working on instead of creating another half finished project
  16. Recently completed video games

    Botanicula Way too much pixel hunting. There were only a few crafty puzzles. It's more like Samorost than like Machinarium.
  17. Recently completed video games

    Legend of Grimrock Finally finished it, took me 23 hours. I missed 1 treasure and a few secrets, but other than that I've completed it. It's really a great dungeon crawler. It barely has a story, it's just crawling the dungeon. The story is presented in pure text in form of notes and dreams. That lack of a story is well compensated by the great gameplay. It's quite well paced, the game kept being challenging. In some cases I feel I was cheating a bit (although still within the rules of the game). I didn't care much for the final battle, it was just taking a swing or two and then escape to a lower level to recover. The puzzles were ok, nothing really complicated.

  19. What does your view look like?

    that's a awesome view
  20. I was watching the first youtube link, and clicked through to the game gold goldblum segment of idlethumbs, and from there I came here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lLjCM5UzSD4&feature=related Game Gold is really... odd.

    You sound surprised. Or did you like the previous movies?
  23. Life

    Impossibru!
  24. TAS? I care about tool aided playtroughts. But not about TAS per se. It really depends on the execution. Most old games are really fixed in their gameplay. It's quite often possible to simply record a playthrough and reply the actions to get a perfect game. That stuff, sucks. But a tool that is also able to play through arbitrary levels that follow the game rules, that I like. But at a certain point it become meaningless. For example, mario brothers 1, 3 and world have been tool aided to death. There's no awesomeness in it anymore. And now people use the tools to compose music based on the sound effects (that's somewhat interesting). Concerning that video... The movement feels too cheaty.
