Ah the devastating all-Heavy combo.

Clearly both teams were in need of some spies.

Magicka is on sale now! This is an awesome game that I highly recommend. It can be a little buggy sometimes, but the fun and good humour the game contains more than makes up for this.

I don't really have a top 10, but if I did Deus Ex: Human Revolution's soundtrack would definitely be on the list.

BTG, please stop trying to encourage other users to pirate Photoshop on the forum, thanks.

I screwed up my registration (browser crashed when registering) and it doesn't accept my password and I can't reset it. All I need to do is wait 120 days to try again.

Other than that the chat seemed fairly amusing.

We don't need this, please don't rick roll people with threads like this, thanks. There's the Random thread for that.

When I wanted to make a gif from a video file, I used Media-Player-Classic to go through it frame-by-frame and doing file > Save Image, then stringing it all together in the Gimp. This took a while and a fair bit of effort but I think it was worth it (I made a couple of avatars).
-
A free alternative to Photoshop is a handy editor called the GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program). It's got quite a lot of features, most of which I myself have never used because I'm not an artist. It supports custom-made plugins and so on.
On a more on-topic note, that signature looks pretty cool. Was it originally from a screencap from the E3 trailer? It looks familiar.

Do you really think that the data on your hard disk disappears at the moment you delete it? Hell no! It just get the flag that the real data on your drive is overwritable. And on an HDD it must be at least 7 full low level rewrites to delete the real data. There is a free (yes it's totally free and opensource) software which you can recover files, partitions: http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk. It works on Windows too! Of course if you damaged your windows os you probably wouldn't be able to use it from the hard drive. But, the System Rescue CD bootable disk image has it: http://www.sysresccd.org/Main_Page.
If you have questions about the usage of this program or any other data losing problems then send me a private message or contact me or commit suicide.
The possibility of successful data recovery surely depends upon the method(s) used to delete the original files?

"A little bird told me go, go socialise! Talk to those fine people, and then KILL EVERY LAST ONE OF THEM!"
This made me laugh more than it should have done.

Note: the beginning is serious, but after the Billy Joel reference it's all BS (I got bored with it.)
Billy who?

I am in your head in a dream so that means your dreaming me in your dream so your head is thinking it is me but i am really another dream inside your dream who is dreaming me in your dream and since your dreaming me. that makes me a dream of the dream, but if i am a dream of the dream i am also a dream of your dream dreaming about your dream, so if your dreaming about me in your head and i am dreaming about me in your head the dream is dreaming itself since only one mind can be present in one head. so if the dream is dreaming itself about me in the dream and your head in the dream that means the dream is controlling us and were controlling it at the same time. If i am dreaming in your head about your head that makes means the dream is controlling me, so if i am dreaming your in a dream in your dream in your head then i am not really dreaming a dream but i am at the same time. If i am in 2 dreams at once then i am only partially controlled by the dream in the dream. so dreaming in to dreams at once one controlled by the dream controlling it and one controlled by me, but your also dreaming in the dream of the dream and in the other dream so that means were both dreaming the same dreams. if the dream is controlling the second dream how is the dream controlling us. the dream of the dream is a dream in between our dreams kinda like a parallel universe so this means dreaming the dream of the other dream is a dream where dreaming is dreamed by the dream.
We uh, need to go deeper?

Yesterday, when i was on my way back home from a 1 week trip, i thought it would be a good idea to return.
some of my problems were solved, some were not, and some are being solved as i type this. i still have lots of things to do, but i'll manage to find at least 30 mins a day to visit the forums.
regarding the emotional dilemma, it's partially gone. now the only thing i can do is wait till that hole left in my heart is filled again by someone else.
that trip taught me a lot. 1st and foremost, that girls do not like squads of 12 water grenadiers storming their bedroom at 5AM with bottles filled with dusty water, drums and war cries.
it also showed me the reality in the flesh. i cant describe it how it felt being there, the experience was too shocking and the love and appreciation given and received was enormous.
so lads, yeah... hello...
Welcome back!

So things were not as bad as you thought they were going to be?
-
This reminds me of an Invaders-style game where you had to shoot up aliens, but each alien you killed represented some random file on your computer.

Back on the on topicness of on topic please.
What he said.
Although I could split the topic for a discussion on Game Design if you want, Axeldeath (seeing as how you brought up the subject)?
-
Wow this must have passed me by, I never noticed any announcements about this. Still, I already own Portal. Great game.

-
If I had not reset my stats a while back, I'd probably have something crazy like 300-400 hours as a Spy. Currently it's showing 177.1 hours.

Disposing of spam bots and listening to Grieg's piano concerto in A minor.
-
From all what i've been hearing i think i really should get this game. Probably going to order it soon.
It's a pretty good game, I personally think it has been well worth the money I paid for it.

-
Those items look pretty awesome! Especially the cap.
-
TF2 on BTG's server was pretty fun tonight, although BTG clearly loves his cvar abuse.

-
There's nothing wrong with him posting in this thread, Dash.

Personally I enjoyed the two new Batman films. Hopefully the new one will also be as good, but I want to see more footage.

LordSinister, your server has good ping (around 100 for me) but....

My point is it was empty when I was there!
I'm not sure what time it is for you where you are, but if it's going to have people on it it's 'usually' anywhere from 7PM UTC (I think that's the right designation for the time). That's the best time to try. I know some people were on it earlier. I however was in Deus Ex: Human Revolution hiding bodies in air vents.

I'll probably be on it another time though.

We should have a game together.
This is an excellent idea.
Crazy Steam Sales
in Gaming in general

And a co-op story campaign for up to four players, although it is possible to do it on your own as well.
