Good old Quake 2 using KMQuake2.

I think you faded out too early near the end. Should probably have let it trail off a bit, but otherwise a very enjoyable episode. I giggled when you did the "Counter Strike 2" thing. ;P

I think there are possibly better mmorpg's out there than WoW.

Misheard lyrics are often funny.

Here are some of my own: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_W9MCx8jFW0

Bad picture, good-looking person.

I have no idea.

Merging this with the Vent thread. This has nothing to do in here.

I would prefer if turret sections had a choice. In the way that you can resume running around and shooting just by pressing the use key again or something. It makes no sense to be physically stuck to a mounted gun and your character refuses to go for cover even when death's shadow slowly crawls over his back. FEAR 2 had two, both equally horrible sections like that (The rock music during the latter one was so embarrassingly pathetic that Picard barely survived his facepalm. But I digress.). I had to lower the difficulty from hard to easy to prevent my forehead from getting hot enough to melt iron. Many of them give pretty much no room for error, you either have to be very lucky or die repeatedly and slowly build a "map" in your mind of where every enemy pops out and when. That is not my idea of fun.

Duke Nukem Forever has a couple of turret sections where all you do really is aim and shoot. On Insane difficulty, those sections in particular are near impossible though. In some places whether you wanna use a turret or not is optional.

Serrano from Bulletstorm. He's a douchebag that just keeps getting douchier during the game.

Got the pescaphobe achievement in DNF. Now all I need is the Damn I'm Good achievement!

in combination? how's that taste?

 

EDIT: my grandmother, my uncle, my handicapped cousin, my other fucking cousin and my goddamned aunt are coming in town, visiting.

 

being belligerently wasted sounds fun right now!

It tastes like pepsi and whisky. And cola and whisky is one of my favourite combinations.

Drinking pepsi and whisky from a Duke Nukem whisky glass.

MGS was on the xbox?! O_O This I did not know. I know it was on PS1 and a remake for GameCube but Xbox? This requires immediate investigation.

 

*investigates*

 

After investigation, I have come under the conclusion that it was NOT on Xbox. However, from what I've heard of the PC version, apparently it sucks. I recommend getting The Twin Snakes on Gamecube (also works on Wii) and if you don't have that, download it from the PSN Store on the PS3. If you have neither, god help you.

MGS2 might've been on the XBox.

Duke Nukem Forever and some Duke Nukem 3D before that. I also finished Bulletstorm last night.

Oh darn. FIXED!

Yeah, it was a bit of a half-assed job there. I'm probably gonna try again later.

*grabs a raspberry ice cream*

Believe - Chemical Bros.

Tripping out to Chemical Brothers.

is it possible to rig some kind of full customization? like me being able to change the background color of the forum, text color, link colors, etc. and the changes only appearing for my profile?

You mean a customizable profile page? I'm not sure whether it's do-able or not.

Windows 7 set me back 1-2 weeks (and still ongoing, but I can work on videos now). 38 is a longer episode, so that took me a little longer, but the dialogue was finished about 4 days ago, I'm currently waiting for the audio mix back from Otto for that, then I'll upload it to Machinima.

 

I'm working on tons of different things, including motion capture and trying to get another series idea at least remotely possible, there are more technical barriers I need to solve. Also that bug mentioned on the last post is huge, I even emailed Valve about it a couple days ago, but haven't had a reply yet. If it continues, I may have to revert to the 2006 version of the Source engine, it really is that bad.

I don't really see a revertion to the 2006 version of the engine to be that bad. I mean, the main thing is to just get it done.

 

Rather known but I love this song. both sound and lyrics.

80's classic, yeah. You should also check out "Sounds Like A Melody" and "Big In Japan", which were also big hits of their.

Yeah, escapism for me too, and because I get a kick out of them and feel like I achieve something.

Well, I did before I ran.

okay, I really didn't know where to post it. We already have the *Paranormal* topic in "Serious Topic Discussion" so...

 

Well, the paranormal topic is for the serious discussion of paranormal phenomena. Remember that paranormal != ghosts. From Wikipedia: "Paranormal is a general term (coined ca. 1915–1920) that designates experiences that lie outside "the range of normal experience or scientific explanation" or that indicates phenomena understood to be outside of science's current ability to explain or measure."

 

Perhaps merging this into that thread could be a good compromise?

Yeah, I agree. Done!
