  1. Original Xbox live games.

    I do feel bad for completely derailing the thread with the first post. As to what that post means... Let's just say that at the time I was really happy and found it incredibly funny.
  2. Left 4 Thumbs 2

    I had super fun guys. I would high five all of you, like KAPOW *high five*
  3. Fable 3

    Oh, this is what people were supposed to hate: It's annoying. I like Fable and I like Molyneux, but that man's propensity for hyperbole... Jesus. He just oversells almost anything he talks about. Worst of all is that he can't seem to help himself.
  4. General Video Game Deals Thread

    Steam has a sale going on where you can get the THQ complete pack for 50% off. So for 50 bucks you get: Company of Heroes Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts Company of Heroes: Tales of Valor Frontlines™: Fuel of War™ Full Spectrum Warrior Full Spectrum Warrior: Ten Hammers Juiced 2: Hot Import Nights Red Faction Red Faction Guerrilla Red Faction II S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl Saints Row 2 Titan Quest Titan Quest - Immortal Throne Warhammer® 40,000™: Dawn of War® II Warhammer® 40,000: Dawn of War® - Dark Crusade Warhammer® 40,000: Dawn of War® - Gold Edition Seems like a pretty good deal!
  5. Fable 3

    I believe you left out the most important, most revolutionary feature: You'll be able to touch your digital girlfriend. Dynamic hand holding system is in, guys! Woohoo!
  6. Being the Myst fan that I am, I couldn't help but get really excited about Uru being back! For the awesome price of free, you can download the client and start playing. Click the link. Anyone else itching to join me in the wonderful, puzzle solving ages!? Are there even puzzles you need multiple people for to solve?! I don't know, but I'm keen to find out!
  7. Myst Online: Uru IT HAS RETURNED

    You know, I'm not exactly sure. I do know that they open sourced the code and tools... I think the idea is that it'll be supported by a small community, whom will also produce content for the game, or something? At the moment, I'm just hoping for more Myst.
  8. Diablo III

    It's the one thing I thought when I saw the female version of the monk "Why isn't she wearing a iron-clad bikini/thong?" I am outrage! How dare! The only reason why you would put a female avatar in your game, is for men to have something nice to look at. If she's not hot enough, then what is the point!? Now I'm not a great artist but I just took about 20 minutes to show you what I think would be some improvements: http://img682.imageshack.us/img682/7484/fmonkmod.jpg
  9. Google Streetview UK launches

    http://kuvaton.com/kuvei/google_street_view_scuba_divers.jpg Seems like the correct place to post this.
  10. Dead Space

    How weird. Did Dead Space for the PC do that badly for them, then? Edit: It seems like Jeff Green went out and said "Rumor fact check: There *will* be a PC version of Dead Space 2. Worry not!" And a little while later "Fact checking my fact check: Dead Space 2 PC is just "Under Consideration." DOH I'm just an excitable PC dork. Should I start the petition?" So tharrr you have it!
  11. Yay for forum spam

    That sounds serious. You'd better do what they say. It is the Idle Thumbs Forum Administration after all.
  12. So, how is everyone?

    Sounds like something I would do. Haha, no I wouldn't.
  13. I would've loved to try out Infestation. It's a shame they didn't pick a mode other than Deathmatch. Cool thing in Deathmatch is that I often saw Marines working together. Same for the Aliens and the Predators. It's a shame; I loved the old games. Even recently played AvP2 on LAN and had a bunch of fun. The new one just isn't for me. It's also the first game in which the muzzle flash of a rifle is so goddamn big that I frequently lost sight of the target I was aiming at. I'm interested in what the rest of you who played it think.
  14. Bad Games

    I join the Toblix-Patters Collective™, even though I played the first 2 such a long time ago. I wonder if I should go back to them and see how they held up; I'm kind of curious. On second thought, I probably won't. MY NOSTALGIA WILL REIGN SUPREME!
  15. I agree. We should put down our BFBC2 usernames. My ingame name is PiratePoo. ADD IT. It'll be tough for me the next couple of days to play, as I've managed to flip my sleep around completely. I wake up some where in the middle of the night now.
  16. I'd be fine with Bad Company 2. I think it would be a bunch of fun to play with squads of thumbs.
  17. Basketball

    Better than what?
  18. Played AvP some more with a friend and I think we made sense of it a little. Heavy attack beats block, light attack beats heavy attack and block beats light attack. Rock paper scissors dealio. If you perform any of those succesfully, then the enemy is stunned for a little while. It would've helped if they explained this in the game somewhere...
  19. Aside from bugs and balance I don't see how the game can get much better from demo to release build. Except that you'll have a server browser and dedicated servers. I don't think it's bad, mind you. I just don't like it very much. We should all get together and try the demo out, though. I do want to play a bit more of it before I decide that I really, really don't like it. P.S. I'm pretty sure there is a way to cancel a prepurchase, isn't there?
  20. Aliens vs. Predator... Complete disappointment so far. Console shite on the PC. It's all slick and stuff, but the feel of the original games is goooone.
  21. It's downloadable from Steam! Download eeit, do it naaaooo.
  22. Aliens vs. Predator multiplayer demo today, folks. That demo will probably decide whether or not I'll buy the game.
