If I'm being completely honest, I'll have to say that the game did not turn out to be as good as I had hoped it would.







See, that's how I felt about it. Except I lost interest in it fairly early on. It was just a very mediocre game. That would be fine if anyone else had made it, but Tim Schafer? Come on.

Rented Boarderlands for the week. It's pretty good, but I wish you started off with more inventory space.

You get a third inventory slot by the time you're done with Fyrestone and the Arid badlands, and sometime before New Haven.

Wait wait wait. Roll it back a sec.

I want in on the castle crashers action. <3 that game.

I know, I know, that wasn't even funny.

If you're online in the next two hours then sure.

I would play, but I am sick and cant talk.

Disgruntled Intern 12-22-2009 08:01 PM

God damn, Hobo. Why are you not on my friends list?

Get my tag from Kastere!

I received a Christmas card from Twisted Pixel yesterday. It has 'Splosion Man flying through the air in a sleigh, while tossing chunks of meat through the air. Also, it's awesome.

Here is the card:

Which game was it?

THIS WAS A TRIUMPH.

Man, what a bunch of nerds

Dipstikk 12-23-2009 07:54 PM

I wouldn't want to be seen in public with these guys.

MeechMunchie 12-24-2009 04:08 AM

This was a triumph
I'm making a note here: HUGE SUCCESS
It's hard to overstate my satisfaction
Aperture Science
We do what we must
because we can
For the good of all of us
Except the ones who are dead

But there's no sense crying over every mistake
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake
And the Science gets done
And you make a neat gun
For the people who are still alive

I'm not even angry
I'm being so sincere right now
Even though you broke my heart
And killed me
And tore me to pieces
And threw every piece into a fire
As they burned it hurt because I was so happy for you!

Now these points of data make a beautiful line
And we're out of beta
We're releasing on time
So I'm GLaD. I got burned
Think of all the things we learned
for the people who are still alive

Go ahead and leave me
I think I prefer to stay inside
Maybe you'll find someone else to help you
Maybe Black Mesa
THAT WAS A JOKE
HAHA. FAT CHANCE
Anyway, this cake is great
It's so delicious and moist

Look at me still talking
when there's Science to do
When I look out there, it makes me GLaD I'm not you
I've experiments to run
There is research to be done
On the people who are still alive

And believe me I am still alive
I'm doing Science and I'm still alive
I feel FANTASTIC and I'm still alive
While you're dying I'll be still alive
And when you're dead I will be still alive
STILL ALIVE
STILL ALIVE...

Yes, MM... we know where the phrase "THIS WAS A TRIUMPH." comes from. But thanks for unnecessarily explaining it anyway.

MeechMunchie 12-24-2009 04:55 AM

Actually I was jokingly going along with the 'These guys are such nerds' vibe by spouting lyrics from a video game song, but you can get away with anything.

abe is now! 12-24-2009 04:56 AM

I'm playing Pro Evolution Soccer 2010 for PS2... it's a good game and easy to play. I recently won the Champions League using Real Madrid XD

Anonyman! 12-24-2009 08:28 AM

I am STILL playing Dragon Age. And I haven't even finished it once. It's like all my skill and ambition just VANISHED the moment I bought this game, and I keep rerolling.

It offs my pisses it does.

Mac Sirloin 12-24-2009 10:51 AM

Dead Rising. It's not so much that it's fun, but that I just want to beat it to show it that I'M THE MASTER.

I can't think of a whole lot of things more annoying than the Transceiver or people crying in the security room. I got sooooo irritated.

I'm playing Dink Smallwood.

I remembered vaguely a demo of an RPG I'd played when I was six or seven, and I knew there were monsters on the farms and you had to find a duck to get out of the village.

So I googled "find duck escape village monsters farms" and Dink Smallwood was the first result. It's it.

It's actually a pretty good game.

I did the same thing 'cept it brought up this thread.
Downloaded it anyways...quite good, it's humourous anyways.

The bosses in that game really make no sense. They're human, but survive countless bullets. That game was too frustrating for me to endure.

I don't understand what the point of the fucking clown fight was. Even less so the grocery store dude.

But I found waiting for the story missions in the security room more asspissing than any of the stupid fucking bosses. Why do the people have to be crying and shit? Why? It's so obnoxious.

ha, you cunt. I've already beaten it with my Elf warrior. The archdemon fight is BALLS.

Currently working on my Elf blood mage and Dwarven rogue at the same time. I'm a busy boy.

Also, fuck dead rising.

EDIT: Anonyman, I know it sucks for a while, but pick a couple of talents and fucking STICK WITH THEM. My warrior was a god damned force to be reckoned with once he hit level eleven.

Hobo 12-24-2009 04:41 PM

FUCK DEAD RISING.

Taco 12-24-2009 04:44 PM

I'm playing Dragon Age Origins. It reminds me of LoTR a lot, the graphics are mediocre, and it's a whole new stupid universe that I don't understand.

I dunno, I only borrowed it a bit form a friend and played on his save. I killed the hardware store guy, then killed all the zombies in the hardware store. Thats about all I played.

My current Dorf Commoner Duel Weildan Warrior seems to be kicking some ass. Boss fights are harder than with my mage but I'm generally having more fun. I've just got a bad case of Morrowind fever methinks, especially with the origins. cant decide wat to be

also have to make an evil gay elf

THAT IS A MUST

Token fantasy = Tolkein derivative. Not that that's always a bad thing.

Taco 12-25-2009 03:51 AM

Well at least there's no lizard-people and cat-people like in oblivion. Not that Oblivion wasn't awesome. I found it a lot easier to get into, even with the cat and lizard people...

Mac Sirloin 12-25-2009 08:48 AM

I think my favorite fight in Dead Rising so far is the crazy priest who attacks you with a sword, either ignores or dodges bullets, and inconsistently flinches. The biggest problem is that they have no pattern, and the physics that apply to you when you're hit (flying like twenty feet away) don't apply to them. The clown was goddamn cake compared to this.

I'm aware of that. I'm pointing out that the game is pretty much set in Middle Earth with a few name changes. And a little more GRIMDARK.

That is one of the least weird things in that universe. In Morrowind, one of the living gods Vivec had sex with the Daedric Lord of Rape or something. He was a hermaphrodite. Also Sotha Sil split his form into two so he could spit roast Almalexia.

Disgruntled Intern 12-25-2009 07:35 PM

I personally liked the lizard people. Although I thought they looked better in Morrowind. They looked all cone headed and fucking bug eyed in oblivion.

Then again, everyone was bug eyed in oblivion.

Phylum 12-26-2009 01:01 AM

I got Metal Gear Solid 4 for Chrissy.

The stealth sometimes reminds me of AO, with it's series of flawless slow walks to the next safe point, which isn't safe for long enough. I'm getting better at the shooting, but hiding is funner.

MeechMunchie 12-26-2009 08:49 AM

I love Nirn. (Elder Scrolls planet) I thought the Argonians were good, and the Daedric Princes were well concieved.

Also, playing Day of the Tentacle.

Anonyman! 12-26-2009 10:03 AM

Khajiit were also cool. Drug addicted cat thieves? Yes please.

I always played Dunmer though, especially in Morrowind. Them raspy voices.

Leto 12-26-2009 02:51 PM

ELDER SCROLL TALK? relevant to my interests.

i'm gonna get dragon age just because i wish there was a new elder scrotum.

Jordan 12-26-2009 03:28 PM

I've been playing some of the games I got for Christmas. Audiosurf, Sonic Adventure DX, Star Ocean and a bit of Tekken 6. I've been on Audiosurf the most though, it's so addictive. And from what I've played of Star Ocean I've really enjoyed.

shaman 12-26-2009 03:42 PM

ODST. Yeah i know i'm late fuck you.

I've heard mixed reveiws, but i think it's pretty good.

Leto 12-27-2009 12:38 AM

it's really really sad, but because i followed the oblivion (and fallout3 slightly) development/release so religiously, hearing Todd Howard's and Pete Hines' voices i find slightly..theraputic.

also i got a warning on the elder scrolls forums from Pete Hines himself. nerdgasm :B









i want an ngage just for shadowkey. i've been trying to get emulators to work but they're pretty pants. ive had so many opportunities to buy ngages for cheaps over the past year, but always put them off. now i rly want to shadowkey, on like the bus and shit.
