Re: Bill.

Popped back to give my heartfelt condolences to Bill's family and the LRR crew. And although I never met him I have countless memories of him and his videos, and blended food...

Bye Bill, I'll miss ya

Re: System Shock 2

Just checking back to see if you were enjoying yourself. One minute, you're running around busting dudes at full health, with 7 hypos in reserve. A few minutes later, you're constantly respawning at 15 health, with no nanites to spare and surviving on alcohol drops. Yep seems about right! :mrgreen: ...

Re: System Shock 2

Sshock2 can be a right bastard at times, but here's four blanket tips that really help: 1. The wrench is your friend, it's your only friend, why? Because the wrench doesn’t take bullets. If you can kill it with the wrench, KILL IT WITH THE WRENCH! Health is cheap and everywhere, bullets aren’t. 2. A...

Wow! That's quite a shock, my dad was really into Clancy (didn't cared for the man himself though) so I ended up reading a bunch of his books.

Re: Gaming General Chat Thread

It's a massive 'fuck you!' to the idea of games needing to be anything in particular. Very true! minor spoiler One point which keeps being raised (even in that review) was how Gone Home refrained from using narrative techniques from other forms of media. With that being said I was kinda und...

Re: Gaming General Chat Thread

I'm not nearly as impressed with Gone Home as everyone else is. It's actually kind of shit. :? AT LAST lol! What I found really jarring was how the game's tone was so divergent from the plot. Everyone I've discussed this with has let it slide, seeing as it's an 'art game' but it really pissed me of...

Re: Did that really come out that long ago

I'm back at my parents house for the holidays, and rummaging around my old room I found my two copies of System Shock. I remember getting so wound up, waiting for it to come out, only to find out it ran like a pig on my poor Win3.1 laptop. It took 3 years of nagging my parents until we got our Penti...

'Cash' or 'Kayche'

Right now i'm sitting in a bar with a pair of fellow comp-sci students, naturally we've bottlenecked into annother nerd argument (neurgment..? whatever). Anyway one side of the table says a computers cache memory is pronounced cash, the other kayche! So how do you pronounce it, and how is it actuall...

Re: Breaking: Extra Credits leaves Escapist

It's becoming very clear that both E.C. and the Escapist fudged the details on what to do with the extra fund-raiser money. And given that a number of current and past Escapist contributors have begin speaking up lends a bit of insight. If the Escapist were in financial trouble, its more likely they...

I have the same opinion with both the US and Australian version, it's a good car show, but it's not Top Gear, to me TG is Clarkson, Hammond, and May. To me it's more about the chemistry between the three hosts, and the general humor that defines top Gear. Heck! I know several people who care about c...
