Sounds like someone's hankering for a good old game of GIBBAGE...!
[that link above goes to my 'anti big games' article, btw, which explains pretty much why I wrote Gibbage...]
Sorry, I'll stop going on about Gibbage, now.
ps buy gibbage.

That bit where Sonic skids on his arse made me smile, though. I have highish hopes.

While they were discussing windfarms I happened to glance out the window and noticed half a dozen or so lamp posts, and a really crazy idea occurred to me. There'd obviously be a lot of practical and safety issues, but I can't see any reason it couldn't work.Creepy, I had that exaclt same idea yesterday while driving past that big Windfarm rotatey-thing just outside London on the M4 yesterday.
I came to the conclusion that, in order to be cost effective in the slightest, they have to be massive.

Sonic Rivals trailer, at last!
Looks ace! No, wait, rubbish. No, ace! No, rubbish.
Ooooh can't decide, can't decide.

I guess your comments have stirred up the Game Tunnel guys a bit.Yeah, I figured I'd better stay out of it.
My favourite bit is where Russ says: "My guess is that Gibbage saw some sales due to the round-up."
Nope. Not one.
-
There's no way I'll let them sell it. Until sales comepletely dry up, at which point I'll let any old crook flog it in the hopes of making a little extra beer money...!
-
DON'T DO IT... they're just after money (oh yeah - this is capitalism - sorry I forgot....)Not a chance! After the creidt card peoples' fees and transfer fees, I make little enough cash out of this little enterprise as it is!
-
Groovy. Let me know how you get on...!
Cheers for the comments, guys. It just got reviewed on GameTunnel who, moments after deciding it was 'meh' offered to sell it for me taking a large slice of the profits. Unbelievable.

They do a round up of 5 Indie games each month.
This month, I'm number one, which is the best number to be.

Boo to 'facts' and 'truth'
I hear the Sony PS3 will make you blind and plugs directly into your nipples.
-
Ha ha ha ha haha. Sony really don't have a clue what they're doing anymore, do they?!
Ha ah ah ha ha haah ha ha. This'll keep me going all through the winter.

Sorry to go back to blithering on about Gibbage, but:
Woo hoo! PCZone's review of Gibbage is out today, and it was raaaather favourable! I'm extremely happy!
I'm off to count the doubtless neverending tide of money that's about to start flying my way...!
Dan
ps ooh, there's more info on what they said here.
-
I've always wondered how people do that.
-
Now that makes me want a DS...!
-
Also: Dan, how could you not be interested in the DS? Even with all the gaming opportunities I have available to me when I'm at home, I'll often just end up sitting on the couch playing on the DS. It's easily my favorite of any current-gen tech, and has so much variety. You should really look into it, man.Hmmm. Sonic Rush tempts me. But everything else I've seen looks... weak. Sorry. Different folks, different strokes, I guess...!
-
That's quite possibly the only thing that has ever made me want a DS.
Lucasarts/ Nintendo: do it. Do a proper version. DoTT, too. Now.
-
I can't remember if I did that. What happens if you do/ don't do that?

If you stand by the first pillar on the left when entering the room, then activate the "long range targeting mode", you can actually eavesdrop on their conversation. It turns out, the monks at the monestary actually KNOW that Brian will get "Tainted" (hence the name of the chapter) and are aware of the unchaining of the undreamer (which makes a little more sense at the very end of the game when Chavez rescues him and tells him he is "needed").Ragnar made a comment on his blog that has been annoying me for weeks: that there's something quite minor you can do right at the start of the game that has an impact on the ending.
I wonder if this is it?!

I'll point you this way again for my point of view; Stop Getting Sonic Wrong
Since reading peoples' responses to that, I'll add "keep him mute" to my list, especially having caught a bit of the god-awful cartoon on Breakfast Teev this morning. Truly horrible wise-cracking little nob.
Ben, perhaps you could print it out and stick it on a noticeboard at Sega or something. Or an everyone email. Before it's too late.
... it's too late already, isn't it? Nnngh.
-
Agkh. Ak. Akkkk.
No no noooo. Wrong. Sick stupid bad. Awful.
"Boo!" "Boooooooo!"
-
From what I've read, it's not setting anyone's world on fire, which is a shame, as the original was ace.
-
Mmmmffff.... no sound on PC at work. Looks ace, though. Little things, like how Max nods at the start make me smile.
Love it. Can't wait. How do you do those thumb things?
Ah. Here.
Yes.
:tup: -
I just realised I started this thread at 11:38. That's a personal triumph. Sorry, what was the topic?!
-
In my head, I was the first. So I've called "bagsy" on it.

Hello!
Glad you got it sorted
One thing that seems to throw a few people off with regards to BTDT's puzzles is that they're all thoroughly logical. There's no madcap, improbable solutions to anything (I don't think) which is odd because most adventure games have a few 'use monkey's hand with ********* to get past the grumpy sailor' puzzles
With regards to a Gibbage sequel: it's definitely happening. We're shooting for an XBLA release which is probably a bit unlikely, especially given that the studio's very much a part-time affair... so we need to shift some serious numbers of games in order to be able to afford to pay to get it done 'properly'. I'm not committing to a full-on online HD Xbox version unless it gets coded properly, arted properly and what-have-you. And that's going to require serious £££, I'm afraid.
Business, eh? Tsh.
Anyway- enjoy BTDT. Have a download of Cruxade as well - I know it's a block-dropper, but it's surprisingly good fun. Like Lumines, only BETTERER.
EDIT: out of interest, why have your forums censored the word 'pine' 'apple'? That's an unusual thing to have done. Do I win a prize?
