  1. How did you find Idle Forums?

    I don't remember exactly how I found the site, but I beleive it was when I was digging for Psychonauts info a few years back and found it on either mixnmojo or some tim schafer fan site. I lurked the forums for a while before I finally joined not too long ago.
  2. I've heard it as being called both here (us)
  3. Twilight Princess: ATRROLAH*

    Well I have put about 9 hours into the game and contrary to the world's opinion that it is the greatest zelda ever, I disagree. It hasn't captured my interest like the others have and i'm about to just stop playing altogether because it is rather boring compared the the previous games. I'm not saying that it sucks or is terrible, but I just cannot get into it.
  4. Securing a Wii

    always go to stores where you would least suspect to carry one. Take Sears for example; I got my PS2 there before they closed ON launch day. They also had 2 wii's there for 3 days before anyone got them.
  5. Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess

    I ran into a major technical problem and was wondering if anyone else was suffering from it... My + - and home buttons do not work in twilight princess, but they work in other games and on the wii menu.
  6. Double Fine Store Lives

    About time.
  7. Prev Gen: Megadrive games

    Ren and Stimpy: Stimpy's Invention
  8. Having and getting game industry jobs

    I'm currently a senior getting my bachelor's of industrial/envronmental design. By pure coincidence I met someone this summer that is a producer for a major publisher/developer that hopefully, will result in getting my foot in the door. I would say your portfolio is your most important asset, but honestly knowing people is one of the most helpful things of all. This is a fairly good article on the subject, written by Cliff Bleszinski http://www.cliffyb.com/rants/how-to-get-hired.shtml
  9. Videogame journalism!!

    Haha, my friend actually said last saturday night "that almost sounds like the guy who does bender" while we were playing gears.
  10. Xbox 360 vs PS3 (yawn?)

    I don't think comparing screenshots of ports is necessarily fair. All games are most likely using the same exact art assets. During the development the teams weren't looking to make one system look better than another. Only time will tell. I've got my wii, I don't plan on buying a ps3 or xbox360 until I have an HD set, and even then I wouldn't pay over 300 for either one of them. And that's not including the 360 core system.
  11. I'm rich!

    I would just wait it out, plus the NTSC to PAL conversion would be a pain in the ass. However, Wii's are still going for near $400 USD on ebay.
  12. Bad games that are good

    Did anyone ever play a game called Deadline on the PC? It was an x-com rip-off, except it was terrible. But I enjoyed it.
  13. Intel game of the year? 1up.com is an abomination. And yes, I agree.... Liberty City Stories was shit as is the psp. There's only one thing that pisses me off more than publishers.... and that is game journalists.
  14. Cylons in C&C3!

    I heard Billy Dee Williams is going to be in C&C3
  15. Important confession

    :shoots himself upon hearing first lyric:
  16. Bad games that are good

    I actually thought the multiplayer was the only good thing about it, it was just turok 2.
  17. MTV acquires Harmonix

    I just hope MTV doesn't end up having any say what kind've music goes into the games...
  18. Bad games that are good

    Soldier of Fortune - Both of them (PC) Ren and Stimpy's Invention (Gen/MD) Sting! (PC) Indiana Jones' Desktop Adventures (PC) South Park (n64)
  19. Bad Day LA Demo

    Regarding doublefusion: http://www.americanmcgee.com/wordpress/ its the last news release (on the bottom of the page) evidentally it is some ad program that will load ads ingame on things like billboards, etc.
