  1. What do you do once you reach the "no!"? Also, I didn't think I was going to buy another world war 2 shooter, but Red Orchestra 2 looks pretty fantastic.
  2. Recently completed video games

    I finished Assassin's Creed 2, which was pretty good! Story-wise it gets kind of shoddy in the end, and game-wise it gets kind of monotonous too. All in all, I really enjoyed it though! The different cities were nice. I made a start on Brotherhood and so far it's definitely a step up. Rome feels much more real with the horses in the street and that you can walk into certain buildings.

    The robots are gonna construct a building sized version of this. Its main ingredient? HUMANS.
  4. Books, books, books...

    Cool! I did not know a TV adaption was in the works. Completely coincidentally, I actually ordered this book yesterday. Looking forward to it!
  5. I didn't know what diaspora meant, so I double clicked on the word so my google dictionary would give me a definition. The first definition it gave was "Jews living outside israel" which made that sentence really confusing. Just thought you should know of my 10 seconds adventure.
  6. Life

    I hope you get well soon, man.
  7. Something witty about OnLive

    This seems to be the conclusion a lot of people come to, me included. I think in another 5 to 10 years, this stuff will really take off. Unless, a company like Google decides to do something like this sooner.

  11. Plug your shit

    I can't tell if you're serious or not.
  12. Plug your shit

    I don't know, taking a look at the original concepts of Manny, there is a lot of personality there too. Might be really cool if that is properly translated into the game. Sweet! Thanks a bundle. Just saying in advance that I wouldn't know how to program a converter, but I can totally do higher res textures and remodeling.

    Shh, I'm trying to make him feel better.

    It's probably because they've shown 1 (one) whole screenshot that didn't really show anything.
  15. Plug your shit

    It's in the game. I can tell from the pixels. I'm an expert. edit: Oh man, that would've been way funnier had I actually pressed post those many hours ago. edit edit: Why am I not invited to this uprezzing party? edit edit edit: Can you send me a .3do file?

    Honestly, what'd they expect? In a hobby this is still mainly dominated by man children. I don't see the big deal, looking at the versions you could pick from you're really only picking from a hairdo, since all of them pretty much have the same face. I would've picked the blonde too, cause I like the way her hair looks. I think it's more how Bioware is hyping up the fact that female shepard will be featured more prominently. Good for you, Bioware, but it's not really something to brag about. My problem is that they're saying "We care about women, honest! Look, female shepard!" but then make it feel sleazy as hell. Marketing bullshit. Bioware can suck a dick.
  19. Limbo

    I have not. Is it worth it to replay finding all those squishables in order to see that level, or am I better off youtubing it?
  20. Limbo

    So I finally played it and finished it and thought it was quite interesting. All in all it's kind of minimalist in terms of both gameplay and audio/visual, but manages to feel very rich regardless. So many tiny little details that were paid attention to, really, really cool; major respect for that. Sometimes control felt a little too loose, where my character would climb down or up something when I really didn't want, but that can probably be blamed on analogue stick control. Jumping, latching and general movement felt pretty tight. In retrospect, I probably wouldn't have had those frustrations if I had played it with a keyboard. Limbo was the perfect length for me too! I finished in about 2.5 hours, which was also right about the moment where I "had enough". It ended and I was satisfied and it was enjoyed!

    Limbo was released on Steam, so I bought it, because I hadn't played it before. And then I played it and finished it and thought it was pretty nifty.

    You're such an extremist extremist.
