  1. Fresh Indie Game Compendium Extraordinaire

You drive in a selection of cars, and can pickup weapons along the way to defend yourself from the zombies. There is also a endless survival mode. More: http://www.zombiedriver.com
  2. Neptune's Bountiful Pride

    I wasn't being sarcastic. The game really is slow, you make a few moves, and then you have to wait hours up to a day, before you can do anything else. And the things you can do are not really much more than move you ships to a selected star system, and spend money the 3 resources or ships. (or in a later stage you can "trade" science by spending a small fee, but I'm not sure how that works.) Anyway, to me it feels a lot like an internet version of chess-by-mail. If it was more like "Star Reach" I probably would have liked it.
  3. Don't books, poetry, music and movies also have rules? Am I not supposed to read/listen/see it from begin to end, and not jumping to various places? Also, don't movies and books have an outcome? It's quite easy to dismiss a medium because it has certain features others don't. You could easily dismiss movies form being art when compared to books because it has sound and pictures. Also, isn't here "classic art" that is interactive. For example, a sculpture is quite interactive because I can view it from the angle I choose.
  4. I need help identifying a game

    You can always pretend you need one identified.
  5. I need help identifying a game

    Did it star Christopher Lloyd? Was it called Toonstruck?
  6. Neptune's Bountiful Pride

    Yeah, I don't think this game is for me. It' just slow... and boring.
  7. Ok. But you said.... Ah... so he is stupid.
  8. Obligatory comical YouTube thread

    ok... so... Poltergiest 4: Jail time
  9. *yawn* I still think the whole "Art" discussion is bullshit. I have yet to be convinced that this is art.
  10. I don't know what, but I simply had to imagine Duke responding: "Come get some!"
  11. Obligatory comical YouTube thread

    Why are so many people freaked out by that?! what's wrong with people. btw, that guy would do well in movies, he doesn't even need make up I'm thinking poltergeist
  12. Neptune's Bountiful Pride

    wow... this game is intense... I just captured 2 stars, and could build some additional economy and industry...
  13. Neptune's Bountiful Pride

    ok, so I clicked some dots... and now I have to wait
  14. Life

    too tired to play a game
  15. Neptune's Bountiful Pride

    I know it's gratis, but it requires a google account.
  16. Neptune's Bountiful Pride

    I'm not convinced that this game deserves my time. Is it just pointing dots to an other place?
  17. Neptune's Bountiful Pride

    It's like Risk? Then I'm not interested.
  18. There's the Famous Vanaman reality soap on YouTubeTV.

  20. zomg... another one, it's almost weekly time to download it and annoy my coworkers with constant snickering.
  21. Paul Verhoeven making The Last Express movie?

    Cyan? No, we need Teal. And Orange. Can't go wrong with Teal and Orange.
  22. Most disgusting thing you've ever done

    Most disgusting thing I've ever done is watching Uwe Boll's movies.
  23. Fucking PC gaming!

    Common misconception. PhysX is not a driver. What you installed was the physics middleware runtime of PhysX. PhysX is a modular physics middleware that allows different computation backends. On the PC you have a (pure CPU) software backend (the default) and a CUDA/OpenCL backend which uses the nVidia GPGPU (i.e. hardware acceleration). Games that use PhysX always use physx, even if you don't have hardware acceleration. These games often have an option to enable even more physics simulation when you have the ability for hardware acceleration. Every feature of PhysX works with any computation backend, it's just that the pure CPU software implementation is seriously slow for various tasks.
