  1. I'm not sure if this goes under "Gaming," figured what the hell. I was wondering what you Thumbers read regularly. Gaming websites I read: Eurogamer, 4 Color Rebellion, TIG Source, Mixnmojo, Thumbs itself, Rock Paper Shotgun, Gamasutra and Kotaku. Gaming blogs (if I don't happen to read your blog, feel free to link to it): Grumpy Gamer (when he updates every two months), Team ICO Gamers, Chris Remo, Gameslol, Spectre Collie (Chuck Jordan), Wonderlandblog, Lost Garden and Applied Game Design. I've been meaning to start Grand Text Auto.

    I say we burn him on a pike.
  3. (IGN.com)

    I once used something like that on Mojo "Redefining awesome" or something.
  4. Nobi Nobi Boy

    All I know is that it's awesome. I never played Katamari, didn't know anything about this, and had the time of my life. Highly recommended. :tup: Also:
  5. Escape from City 17

    I really like it. The writing is cringe-worthy though and so is some of the acting but I really, really like it. They nailed the atmosphere. The way the Combine die could have been lifted straight out of the game.
  6. Most Annoying Song EVer

    "At Walmart!"
  7. 1. OK, this guy's videos are all cool, but he discovered some awesome Ico-related shit recently. .2. Kroms's Spidey-Sense says: New info on whatever Team Ico is working on to be released in February. 3. It's not lame. It's cool...Umm. Yeah. Not lame.
  8. From A to Z to Back Again

    Pretty good text-based zombie game, made in 48 hours for the Global Game Jam. Try it.
  9. From A to Z to Back Again

    I don't think I've lasted for more than 35 seconds. But I'm getting the hang of it. Either way it's pretty interesting.
  10. Your internet persona

  11. Can I sleep on your sofa?

    Yeah, I figured. I'm not really an internet guy, so I don't know much about trusting people on the internet. Like, I've been on these forums for years but I hardly post at all, even though I kinda skim them every once in a while. Anyways.
  12. Can I sleep on your sofa?

    *ponders safety of sleeping on internet people's sofas* Hmm. One of my exes had socks like yours. I liked them, but they always made me think I was about to be kicked. Which I promptly was on break-up.
  13. Flower

    Well, movies have all this unnecessary spending too, but I understand what you're talking about. That having been said, 7 pounds is cheap for a game, especially one that plays at three hours. I'd rather pay 7 for 3 hours than 50 for 10 - which I may or may not finish.
  14. Flower

    Eurogamer review is up. He gives it an 8. Yeah, scores don't matter so read the review. But I hate this: "[A]lthough beautiful and engaging, Flower's brief, film-length experience would be better suited to something closer to flOw's original GBP 3.49, and that ultimately counts slightly against it." Isn't a movie more expensive than Flower's 7 pounds? So why is he complaining?
  15. Obligatory comical YouTube thread

    (watch till the end, worth it).Dog and cupcakes although the host is about as funny as a 19th Season episode of Simpsons.

  17. Tag: The Power of Paint

    This looks infinitely interesting. It's a bit like Mirror's Edge with a small Portal-ish twist. You can download from here.
  18. There is a minor bug...You have to click on "Edit" twice for it to work, otherwise if you move the mouse around the cursor turns into the "Busy" icon.
  19. Your favorite game glitches!

    The stuff Pikol's discovered on Shadow of the Colossus is mind-blowing.
  20. Pigeons

    So how do Spaff and Yuftser know each other?
  21. Pigeons

    That has got to be, without a doubt, the blackest pigeon I've ever seen. PS: Look at that cat. It's all like, "Why yes, I DO want to eat this pigeon for breakfast." I feel for you kitty.
  22. Pigeons

    I have! I saw a guy train hundreds of pigeons at once to fly away and then come back at his whistle. One of the most beautiful things I've ever seen, although you learn quickly that holding an umbrella is a good idea. Anyways let's see a picture of the pigeon!
  23. Obligatory comical YouTube thread

    Y'know, I hate Star Trek, but these are pretty funny. Episodes six and seven especially.
  24. Obligatory comical YouTube thread

    I'm not a fan of Street Fighter, but this is extremely clever. Not funny but you'll laugh at how clever it is. Not funny but really cool (Foo Fighters/GNR mash-up). And this is so cute it's funny, much like the French kid.
