  1. I Had a Random Thought (About Video Games)

    then don't listen to that idle thumbs episode from a couple of weeks ago
  2. General Video Game Deals Thread

    Played it. But quitted it after I accidentally reset a lot of progress by pressing the wrong key and auto load a save game. I't quite "meh". It's kind of all over the place gameplay wise, and the story feels annoying padded.
  3. Games giveaway

    He. Why did somebody take your free SR4 copy but passed on the one I was giving away...

    would you rather have an hour on the bus and work 8 hours?

  6. Serious Sam 1 (first encouter + second encounter) is great. The huge open areas, shit load of enemies, whacky traps and game mechanics. It's just great. The meteor shower in the second encounter is one of my all time favorite game segments. Serious Sam 2 sucked big time. Hardly any huge open areas, mostly small areas and corridors. Dumb boss fights. Serious Sam 3 started of bad, but once you've managed to drag yourself through the "modern FPS" kind of gameplay it becomes more like SS1, but it still does not measure up to the originals. Note, that there are two versions of First Encounter and Second Encounter. The "HD" versions use the Serious Sam 3 engine iirc, they are mostly the same, except for quite some of the whacky traps of the original. The SS3 engine did not have the gravity tricks the SS1 engine has. But also some things don't look as impressive as in the original, for example the meteor shower looks much better in the original. This part of example is much different in the HD version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=H7DxwHz5fFc#t=991 You can get the original encounters in the "Serious Sam Classics: Revolution" pack (currently for less that $2). Revolution is a fan made 3rd encounter in the original engine (sponsored by Croteam). My preferred way to play Serious Sam is to play in coop, and crank up the difficulty to the highest and optionally increase lives.
  7. Hatred: The Most Despicable Game of All Time?

    It's funny were claiming censorship when valve refused to sell Hatred. It's not censorship until the government blocks it. PEGI != BBFC. PEGI gave the original game 18+, and as far as I know it has never refused to rate anything.

    If they cannot hire somebody from outside the EU it is probably a subsidized position, or they are being dicks.

  16. General Video Game Deals Thread

    I think it's best to skip the first 3 day long bidding war and simply try to bid in the next 99 rounds which only last 45 minutes.
  17. General Video Game Deals Thread

    profile wallpapers and emoticons are up to 80 gems. I got rid of most of them and gathered like 13000 gems.
  18. General Video Game Deals Thread

    I think others have cleaned him out. The junk bot would also trade back.
  19. General Video Game Deals Thread

    You probably followed a link containing a language code. I once had that within steam and it set everything to Korean. Took me a while to find a link to put it back to English (because within steam you cannot change the language).

  21. Movie/TV recommendations

    Max 1 also had psychos. In Max 2 they just dressed up more. Although there are much larger differences between the two. This new Max is closer to the road warrior.
  22. Saints Row 4

    SR2 was more like San Andreas where SR3 was more like Vice City. I'm a Vice City guy.
  23. Movie/TV recommendations

    Pretty good? That trailer was turning out shit until 1:20 when it became awesome. I just hope it's not a funny bit but the insanity is actually part of the whole movie.
  24. Saints Row 4

    I don't think is. Just this segment... or maybe this segment is even just promotional material.
