I played with a bunch of Thumbs. I killed a bunch of Thumbs. It was great! Good fun, guys.

Happy birthday, Sleepdance! May you win a match of Left 4 Dead 2 Versus somewhere in this year.

She sounds like a mouthbreather.

Looky what I found posted on Kotaku: Kellee Santiago's response to Ebert.

Please make it so.

Ping is about ~45ms. I support you spending your money on a Thumbs server. If you do, I will definitely play.

Hey, we have an awesome thread for sales like that here

If you put art in a box, does it both exist and not exist at the same time?

I haven't read a game manual in a very long time, so I don't really mind. starshrugstar By the way, how very cynical of you; manuals can't cost more than a few cents, can they? Edit: Though I guess if you print 5 million, it can add up...

That is you interacting with the art, though. The statue itself does not interact with the observer, except maybe in the same way a movie interacts with a viewer. I wouldn't regard it as interactivity, maybe just participation. OR SOMETHING! SEMANTICS MAN, UP UP AND AWAY!!

The new campaign will supposedly come out next week. By the way, any thumbs interested in trying out this one?

My friend played it yesterday for the first time. He used matchmaking, played a little, then got yelled at by the other players until he left. It was quite bizarre. My friend seemed to defend the reaction saying that it's like any gaming community, but that the people you play with have such a huge influence on what kind of game you'll have that they act like pricks if you join as a newbie? I wasn't really sure about any of that.

Not to mention the more recent Zwartboek (Black Book) which was nice as well.

Disappointed that this one wasn't in there. 93dsT8a9aAU

I'm guessing for a while; at least until the next generation of consoles come out. Once you get your new PC, you should totally play Left 4 dead 2/Bad Company 2 with us.

That's what I meant, yes.

Ugh. It's funny, somewhere, but I'm finding it all incredibly sad. I wonder if we'll start seeing an exodus of Infinity Ward employees once they get their bonuses. That would top this entire story off.

Ring and somethingsomething nibelungen? I remember seeing the cover of that box years and yeeeaaars ago; it said it was based on some kind of opera. I considered buying it but never did. I don't even know what kind of game it was. Yes, I realize that wasn't at all helpful.

It kind of is, but it kind of isn't? They sort of do the same thing, but they both do them in very different ways. I'd say it's worth playing both. I'd tell you to go play The Witcher, but I'm not sure if that would actually run. It's not the most optimized game ever. Star Craft might look a bit too dated for you, but Warcraft 3 is still pretty good. I also want to recommend The Longest Journey, if you've never played that before. It has some bullshit puzzle solutions, but overall it's quite fun (if you're into point and click type stuff). Dreamfall, the follow up to that game is also quite nice. That was on console too, so you might have already played it. You don't have to have played The Longest Journey to get Dreamfall, but it does add a lot. Familiar characters, settings, that sort of thing.

Yea, it was good fun. Shame you weren't on Skype. You totally missed out on the Battleraper and rapelay banter.

Oh man, I lost it when he started spelling out the bank name. I was almost disappointed when I couldn't find the next one, but looked at the date and saw this was posted last year. I'll link the rest, for convenience sake. Part 2 Part 3 Part 4 Part 5 Part 6 What a disgusting excuse of a human being on the other end of that line by the way.

I love that song. I love it. xD

Someday, they'll make a movie out of this, along with a tie-in Video game.

Can't they just see where they charged what and then refund, or is it more complicated than that?
