  1. GTA ONLINE

    Haha, that was pretty awesome. But in 5 can the budding romance of 2 cops on the hunt be instantly destroyed by a collision with a wall? There was a song and everything.
  2. The guardian is in on it too! Filthy liberals.
  3. GTA ONLINE

    5 is so uncool. 4 is where it's at.
  4. Chris Remo reacts to rumours he has joined Campo Santo.
  5. Is free to play inherently evil?

    What I want to see is statistics on how much cash Blizzard has made from selling in game pets and mounts to people who already payed for the game, and then pay a monthly fee. I barely brushed over it when i was back playing a few weeks ago (2 year break), but they are selling horses for €20 a pop!
  6. Unnecessary Comical Picture Thread

    Am i so internet that I read that and didn't realise it was terrible?
  7. Feminism

    Oh gosh yes, it was horrible. Though, less a play on what happened, rather exactly what happened. I can't remember the names involved, but someone will be along with the link soon enough.
  8. Is free to play inherently evil?

    It's very much a case of you wanting something there Twig, rather than needing (though all F2P has a bit of both). I've put cash into buying many heros in LoL, but I've never felt like I was forced. Nowadays, i just tip away with a bout or two in the evening for the fun of it, and i'm sitting on around 8k points, which will buy me any champ i want. In LoL however, there is some more subtle prodding to spend cash. You need IP to buy runes, which provide stats to your characters. You can only get IP by playing. You can however boost the amount of IP you earn by paying cash - you still have to play to earn, but you will earn a fair bit quicker. Having runes directly impacts the power of your character. I don't generally give a shit about doing well in games anymore, but it is quite a carrot to dangle in front of people.
  9. Making a game? Pitch it here!

    I went back to the Gamemaker bit I wasn't able to get working before. I now have portals working in one direction! whoot. Prototyp'ed
  10. I Had A Random Thought...

    So nice. I've been hit by that a few times recently.
  11. The Idle Thumbs 10th Anniversary Committee

    ...I just assumed it was left over. Subbes, i would sacrifice asianman's left arm to be able to write like that! So cool looking.
  12. Plug your shit

    "A collaboration between designer Charles Cecil and coming artist Dave Gibbons it was an excellent blend of humour and serious storytelling, unlike this sentence." These things write themselves!
  13. Plug your shit

    Yes! My bro and his wife love Grim Fandango, so i was eying up a print for them!
  14. Life

    Now it looks like a cat organized the secret thing in the other thread. Hope she does good subbes.
  15. Plug your shit

    Your Full throttle man is amazing btw!
  16. Making a game? Pitch it here!

    I have a game idea, but it is a secret. I have notes scribbled down and everything, and a name!
  17. Plug your shit

    You should probably go for Objective Game Summaries.
  18. Life

    Go with the boring one. The other one sounds sticky.
  19. Amateur Game Making Night

    Pants Tightino.
  20. Just use an online calculator. It's risotto, not rocket science (lol, NASA), just go with the flow. Too buttery? use less butter next time. Do what you want. One thing I do disagree with is only using a dash of wine. You want several dashes!
  21. I make mine with prosciutto in with the onion at the start. Then rice and shitoons of garlic. The. Shitoons of white wine. Then proceed as above with chicken stock. 2 mins before the end I add some sugar snap peas. Parmasean at the end. Season liberally with black pepper at all stages.
  22. Show me your desk/gaming space

    3/10. Needs more telenovella.
  23. Amateur Game Making Night

    I propose we make a game composed entirely of mechanics mentioned in the Game Mechanics to Retire thread. Idea: Game composed entirely of Escort Missions with QTEs. QTEs must be performed using a peripheral such as PS Move, guitar hero guitar, DJ mixer. However, you only get to find out which peripheral by listening to the inane bladderings of your escortee.
