Yea, a hearty congratulations on that win to Dan! Microsoft was full of shit then and they're still full of shit now.

Swans are vicious assholes. Fact.

I tried this myself after seeing that and the results were pretty much the same, so I dunno. Funnily enough, before I saw this video, I thought I had just gotten really terrible at aiming with a controller...

Ah yes, I saw that. I love both those men. Neil DeGrasse Tyson has been my science hero for sooo long. Speaking of science! Cern posted a short while ago: Exciting! In other science news, some of you may be aware that last saturday, they launched the new Mars Rover Curiosity. What's special about this one is that it's at least 5 times bigger than the previous ones they've sent, that it carries way more instruments than any rover before it AND that it's going to perform the first ever precision landing on Mars. They made an animation showing how that'd work and: BudlaGh1A0o How BADASS is that?

Has Team Fortress 2 taught you nothing?

You could buy it for 30 dollars to get instant beta access, but I don't know if that is worth it to you.

I PM'd you a key like yesterday, man. Edit: Fuck, something went wrong, apparently! My bad! Check your PM now.

I played the demo (basically the full game, but your playtime is limited to an hour) and I really liked what I played. Totally willing to buy it if the price gets lowered or if it goes on sale.

Thumbs up for pixeling in your santa hat. Edit: In fact WELL DONE EVERYONE. Except bbx. You're dead to us.

Okay, so I have been playing this a lot in the past weeks and it's totally badass. The devs are also doing a great job with the patching, as each patch has improved the game noticably in terms of gameplay. So, who else is in the beta? Alternatively, who really wants to be in the beta? I got 1 beta key left.

That converts to 55 Euro's and 75 USD, so yes, that is absolutely absurd. I also wasn't aware that this was a full priced title? Sooo that price is not a mistake?

I totally cracked and bought it. I'm really enjoying it, except for the UI, which I was prepared for since everyone complains about that. Let's hope someone makes one soon that doesn't suck ass.

I wasn't planning on anything, so I did it just to annoy you.

Otherwise you could just download it, really. Is it piracy if you already bought the game? Sounds fucked up either way.

I think I remember the manual stating that the preferred way of playing was with a joystick for the sword movement, which I hooked up. Didn't help much. That and for some reason I can remember only caves.

Sooo, basically Flash lingo for frame interpolation then?

Haha, you have Die by the Sword on there, I just noticed! That's amazing! I bought that like 10 years ago. Recently discovered that it is actually a Treyarch game. It's also kind of shitty, from what I remember.

Yea, no kidding. Bunch of whiners. Waaaaaa, piracy, waaaaaa.

I am very impressed by this. -_IKqjb9TRY

I bought the Oddbox, cause I wanted to try Stranger's Wrath again. Also, Munch's Odyssey which I've never played.

That blue Spartan has a lot of junk in the trunk, it seems.

Welp, I finished it! I did a bunch of thinking about it and on the whole I enjoyed it. It's definitely a step up from Twilight Princess, which I found to be rather boring (seems I'm not the only one), but I wish Nintendo had pushed it even farther and did away with a lot of other Zelda tropes as well. Mainly, Nintendo needs to quit it with the insipid fetch quests and other padding like that. A lot of moments really feel like a slog in order to get to the good parts of the game. That being the dungeons, exploring new areas, watching the story unfold. I really had a lot of fun with the dungeons and this time around you actually use most of your tools throughout the game. The best moments really are when you're momentarily stumped and you suddenly figure it out. Which reminds me. I hate, hate, HATE the CONSTANT interruptions the game throws in your face. If it isn't Fi interrupting you with something I'd rather have figured out myself, it's picking up monster items and the game acting as if you picked it up for the first time, with the full holding it out + description + going into the menu and doing a fancy "You found a sharp claw! It looks so sharp and also useful for something! +1!!" this happens ALL THE TIME. The 39th time I picked up a jello blob thing and it did it, I yelled a lot of profanities at the screen and cursed the creators of the game. You see, it's shit like that that hangs over the game's good points like a dark cloud, constantly pulling me out of the experience and souring my enjoyment.

I just rage quit a Zelda game. I cannot remember that ever happening. I've found over the course of playing it that there is SOMETHING impure about the way the sword works. Honestly, this game reminds me why the Wii is my least played system: 1. Wrist cramp and arm cramps 2. Even with motion plus, it does not always read inputs correctly. I basically had a moment where I was fighting a boss and more times than I can count, I did a swing and it read the exact OPPOSITE of what I did. I move my hand left to right, but it displays as right to left instead. edit: Thinking about it, I wonder it has something to do with, it's when you move your hand left to right in a speedy manner from a somewhat central position, that the controller goes from | to slighty \ to / as you finish the swing? That it picks up on that tiny motion instead and then as you do the actual swing, it's already outputting the unintended movement... Or something.

I've been binging all weekend. In retrospect, the Faron Woods thing wasn't THAT bad. It's two parts cool, one part annoying shit.
