  7. Hawken, or: Fuck Me, Mech Games Are BACK!

    Or how about the man is in a metal walking coffin and shooting that coffin would of course release adrenaline.
  8. Obligatory comical YouTube thread

    Are you a customer of her music? No? Well stop being a dick, she's a god damn kid, leave her alone. Seriously who cares if Justin Bieber is popular, he'll be gone in a few years, or will mature. If you don't like it stay away from it.
  9. "The Source Code" worst movie title ever

    Yeah it's calledThere WILL be Blood, not necessarily in the film.
  10. The threat of Big Dog

    3CR5y8qZf0Y Now they can throw back grenades (from Shack).
  11. The Dancing Thumb (aka: music recommendations)

    The Eagles are fucking terrible, on the same levels as Journey and Genesis, seriously people like that shit. Urgh now I feel sick, thanks.
  12. "The Source Code" worst movie title ever

    I disagree, Mad Max is worse.

  15. Blue sky in American games?

    Japan as a nation are quite insular, as are Korea and China with their games. Korea and Chinese games are fairly exclusive to their respective countries. The majority of Games developed here are never released elsewhere. Why do I mention SK and China? Simple, their culture is rooted in Ancient China, yet here in the west our culture stems from Ancient Greece. Those in the East think differently to Westerners, not in cognitive functions but in values and the way they perceive the world. There are an incredible amount of academic books covering this. A Westerner would view the world as a series of lines between events, whereas someone of Eastern descent would view it as a circle, a cycle if you will. These ideals will of course affect their ways of life and ultimately in this case their game designs and perception of the respective cultures game designs. The general idea here is that the Eastern ideas are much harder to influence with western philosophies than the other way around. Which may be due to Western culture or simply due to the Japanese consoles being the earliest massively successful attempt.
  16. Blue sky in American games?

    Ok then Japanese games are cheerful, let us take skies of arcadia as an example. The visuals are very "cheerful" but the game itself has a large amount of dark material: genocide, poverty, sacrifice, etc. A game targeted at Japan. Stop making sweeping generalisations.

    OssK!

    Also the Halo games have lovely blue skyboxes.
  19. Hot Pursuit 2010 PC

    So from what I've heard the game is made better by having friends who have played it, so if you have the PC version put your Username here: Patters666
  20. Hot Pursuit 2010 PC

    $13 is easily worth it, if just for the single player. Play it with a controller though.
  21. Idle Thumbs Camping

    Suspecting not is enough for me, it's a juggling prop.
  22. Blue sky in American games?

    Sonic isn't a happy game, it's about a crazy scientist who kidnaps animals to perform what I can only assume are horrific science experiments. The same with Megaman, which is about robotic slavery.
