Banned because Yzma told me to.

I can sort of see the logic behind software piracy though. If you try something before you buy it, then you know you are buying something you actually like, rather than buying something based on the trailers and reviews alone. A lot of games nowadays don't even have any shareware demos anymore. Regarding movies and music, I think piracy can be a good thing, especially for more obscure titles.

Thanks for the advice at least. I'm at least going to get Rogue Squadron to play on it with the GameCube controller. That game was awesome.

A bluescreen is indeed indicative of a serious hardware fault...

I'm considering getting Force Unleashed on Wii.

Ah, cool. I'm still using CS5.

Michael Bay is directing a Thunder Cats remake.

Nice, CS6 already out?

Hard to explain, I just think the Black Mesa ones have the wrong "feel" to them. The original HL1 designs were low poly, yes, but they had a certain style to them that in my opinion Black Mesa has outright failed to replicate, which is essential when you are making a high def remake. In fact, I'd say the High Definition Pack by Gearbox was closer to the original than these models are.

Only if he was into scat.

Uhm, Mac users use two buttons, BTG. Some of those mice are designed so that it looks like one button but there are two buttons, depending on which side you press on. Anyway, playing Mass Effect.

Looks pretty bad to me. It looks like a plastic doll, not a real person. Mostly I think the problem is with the skin texture and the overall design of it. The clothes don't look that realistic either. When you have standards set by the first and second game, I think you should try and build on those.

Skrillex in space, finally!

The main problem I have is that the designs aren't good, they're horrible. The scientists all look like crappy designs that barely resemble humans as opposed to the original designs which at least look more appealing. Mostly I have a problem with the eyes and mouths as they look downright creepy. My philosophy is that it doesn't matter that it's done by amateurs as long as it looks professional, which is not the case here.

Yeah, quite an ugly desktop. Oh well... at least the wallpaper is decent.

Your cat throws up a furball on your carpet.

That's pretty awesome, I remember you joined pretty soon after me.

Your neighbour wakes you up at 3 am playing music so loud the entire neighbourhood can hear it and it's really annoying dubstep with a really bad rap.

Still, they don't look anything like the original HL designs, which is a big continuity issue for me, especially considering it has to fit in with the whole franchise.

Sounds like a fetish.

I really dislike the model designs of the characters, especially the scientists. It really doesn't look anything like the original designs. The weapon designs are quite good however.

9/10 Would look better if it was transparent.

"Why are you looking at my screwdriver like that?"
