The Gamer's Quarter

I really liked the piece of graffiti that said "I miss the Internet."

The versus mode alone is worth the cost of this game. No to mention that the versus mode - and campaign mode - are jump-in, jump-out on the PC with no slowdown whatsoever.

And yeah, the idea of thi ...

1) Could be mitigated if you played it on a PC, on a LAN..
2) Again, the PC version has single-player on it. Not that I expect, based on your post history, you to ever, ever pick up an FPS game on th ...

The hunting rifle definitely has its place. We always try and make sure at least one person in the group has one, they're insanely useful for the open areas and the seige-ey parts of the campaign. I'm ...

Well at close range you can usually get at least two with one shot. I realise the hunting rifle penetrates better than a man named "Butch" at a minimum-security prison, but the sheer spread and rate o ...

Dead Air, in the terminal. We clear the area when all of a sudden this joker in my group says, "Hey, do you think I can make it past security?" I look back as he walks through the lone upright metal ...

Cancel my interest in the game then.

What are you for serious reals

I didn't even know there was such a thing as a zombie purist. The game is fun! Enjoy it.

I had an amazing time with this on Steam. Played through the demo three times and each time as we got better and better, the AI Director stepped up to the plate and threw new challenges at us to keep ...

This happened to me just the other day, also. They took my PSP, our PS2, a bucket of PS2 games (every SingStar game! Why!), my girlfriend's guitar, my bike... some other minor stuff. Tore the security ...

Hey you, what's with all the threadomancy.

Totally! Although it's in Portugese, and being launched in Brazil. Perhaps you could cover the holy-shit-game-development-in-Perth angle? Who knows! I could put you in touch with people, if you wanted ...

Wait, for reals? That stuff's not that great Sad

I'd like to try any drink called "Chocolate Mudcake" though. That can only end well.

Hey Cycle we should catch up sometime. Have a couple of froth ...

And I am so fucking sick of whales, lemme tell you.

Immigrants fucking rock. Any country that hates immigrants is retarded, hypocritcal and in denial of its own heritage*. THERE I SAID IT

I live in Western Australia. 27% of our population were born ...

The cutscenes are great. The enemies LOOK nice but some of them are outrageously overpowered. The whole subspace thing is a fucking chore from beginning to end, interspersed with delightful cutscenes ...

Fuck me I didn't know this was out. Gravy? Gravy over kebabs? I'm confused too. Also who the fuck thought fruit salad chips would be a good idea.

New contest: think of an Australian comedian and th ...

I don't know if it's intentional - or unintentional sexism, but it sure as hell is absolutely sloppy design. Attack faster if you're a male! Tie damage to to animations which could very well lag depen ...

OH MAN SMASH BROS. BRAWL IS ACTUALLY RELEASED IN AUSTRALIA TODAY I BURST A VEIN IN MY EXCITED PEEING

Dayumn. I didn't even know about that thread! Thanks for that Shaper, I'll give it a looksee. And thanks to everyone else!

I have recently come into possession of a silver slimline PSP! Something I have been interested in for some time, but never thought I would have one of. Accordingly, I haven't really been keeping up a ...

Pomble? The orange one? Or perhaps you mean the one next to it, Schlongie.

[url=http://www.timtekindustries.com/images/spore/Movies/schlongie.avi]See him in a movie!

Woo! This is great fun.

For those who didn't know, you can go to your My Spore Creations\Creatures folder, take the png files there, and send them to people or put them on the internet. People can ...

It would make more sense for people to be able to read the posts, but not reply unless they had permission. There's no reason to keep the content hidden from the general public, and if they don't know ...

Into your pants?

*bu-zing*

I saw this on an article on Kotaku today.

I'm not sure to be pleased that they're taking the Boris-Vallejo-esque 80's glamfantasy aesthe ...

A friend of mine is in the beta, and related to me an anecdote of how he once saw, late at night, two developers slagging off the lead designer across the global public chat as "a talentless idiot".
...

This is good! Try it without folding it though. You're doubling the intensity of each bite. It might be too much at your current power level!

Marmite is the pasty red-headed cousin of Vegemite - more savoury and without the ball-punching bitterness. I wouldn't exercise as much caution as a Vegemite jar requires, but that's not to say you sh ...

I gotta say, unless it's "PKUNK", I got no idea.

Wow, these are really great, Dracko. Thanks so much for sharing!

Not a joke! But they are awesome. So awesome.

Well, they're pretty cool.

If nothing else they'll encourage people to play the medic and that's good.

I thought that was an April Fools joke?

Good God, it's so true. Crying or Very sad

No problem. I use SUPER for nearly everything. Stripping audio out of movies, converting movies, it's fantastic. Interface is a bit clunky but hey, it's freeware. The only thing shitty about SUPER is ...

SUPER should be able to do it, according to their site. There's practically nothing it can't do!

Honestly Dess, give it a rest will you. You complain at Cycle for constantly posting his hatred of Portal but it's totally cool for you to rage on about how much you hate competitive Smash players in ...

Dear friends! Dear, dear friends.

How does Wario play?

I have also picked up Ghosts but not yet heard it! However, I Can't Stop Listening to I Created Disco by Calvin Harris. Does this make me a bad person? I think not.

You whaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Dude, the gravity gun is the single winning button in HL2. Seriously, that shit should be your primary weapon. Hurling buzzsaws and desks and explosive barrels around instead o ...

No room for creative thinking? Think with physics*!

How to destroy a hunter? Hold a barrel in front of you, let them fill it with flechettes, then launch it into their face for megasplosionlulztime ...

Uhm, the strider invasion part is the last part of it. So you're actually right at the end...? And have in fact, nearly finished it.

Why do you hate Episode 2 so much! It's way better than 1 was, a ...

Hi! I live in Australia, so I won't be seeing this game, which I am unreasonably impatient for, until probably around the end of the year. I just wanted to post and say that I am seething with envious ...

Also I think it's worth nothing that by the time you get to HL2:ep2 they've really tweaked a lot of the shitty things nobody liked about the previous two games. Car steering is really great by Ep2, an ...

i should note that i have the PC edition of orange box!

Good! Let's play this weekend!

Wow, thanks for sharing David! This is a really great insight, thanks a lot.

Wow, thanks for posting that up Dracko! Pax Romana is probably the best thing I've read in many long months. I'll be hitting up my store as soon as possible for the rest of those.

I see! I don't usually tend to mash keys until the credits go away though - the escape key exists as this convention for a reason.

Notes from my first playthrough, in order:

1. Nice art, Harveyjam!
2. I am totally digging the neat tightness of this game's aesthetic.
3. Pressing escape doesn't pause. It quits the game entirel ...

Just wanted to get that out there, in case there was any mistake belief that what he was doing was funny, clever or interesting.

Please, stop.

Yours sincerely,
