Holy shit, I can't believe you have Hit and Run. I used to love that game as a kid, despite how awful it was.

Awful? Have you ever tried the instant explosions on contact cheat? I used to use it all the time and try driving the remaining car frames around.

Isn't a game's quality normally determined by how fun it is?

No.
Is a film determined by how enjoyable it is to watch?

Personally, I had more fun messing with the cheats and minigames instead of the actual game itself.

Yes.

It was lazily made, certainly, but it wasn't bad. It just could have been better.

Well, neither of those are even fun to watch to begin with so...

Also, Hit & Run was great.

Essentially, but there tends to be less gun violence in Hit and Run.

The first Saw is pretty good, and the original Final Destination is silly but very good fun to watch.

So yes. Nep, artistic merit =/= quality. There are plenty of terrible arthouse films.

I think Nepsotic is straying into "entertainment value is subjective", which is dumb because how do you objectively define a good movie?

Also why are we discussing movies n the desktop thread?

How do you upload such a big image on photobucket with great quality? Mine's always like this...

Imageshack version:
It took me ages to work out. When you go to upload, click the 'Customize Upload Options' link, then select the 'Display my linked photos in their original sizes' option.

I wish you could still link to the image without having to load the Photobucket page, but it looks like that's not possible any more. I should probably stop using Photobucket.

Do I have to do that every time I upload something? Because I already had that marked and it still came with the fuzzy compression bullshit. Also, big .GIF files tend to lose their size and be much smaller. Is there a work around this to? Because I've tried and still came shit from the other side.
