  • Aliens vs Predator

    Quote from D3ads

    Bingo! It's a personal preference, one that i should be allowed to keep with, Steamworks pisses me off for this reason.

    Nah it's cool mate i understand that...just find i bizarre

    Also long time no speak D:!

    Offline? lol

    Anyway, this game delivers. The radar still scares the shit out of me, and i'm a grown up now. Well at least I used to think my father was a grown up when he was my age.

    D3 still refuses to have his gaming PC on the internet

    I agree hkon, i'm going through the marine campaign at the moment and find it pretty scary. I love the Alien franchise and while there have been a couple of bad films, this game so far has stuck to the original films roots.

    The AI is pretty random...it's almost like they switch off when an encounter nears the end so you're left on your own.

  • StarCraft II

    Quote from dux

    Then you obviously aren't building a force fast enough

    A true mapcore answer...god i've missed those.

    Quote from Skjalg

    I've been watching a lot of live streams from pro players and it seems that the terrans are a bit underpowered at the moment. Most people seems to love the reapers, but they aren't powerful enough to warrant the love they are getting (which means they get raped).

    Maybe i'll try a different race see if i have better luck.

    My battle.net ID is christufnell[AT]gmail.com, add me if anyone fancy s a game.

  • StarCraft II

    So i'm shit . Now i'm not the best at RTS games i'll admit that...they are by far NOT my first choice in genre. But i've played 8-9 games now and only won one .

    I know SC is about rushing and building quickly and i do believe i'm doing this, but i'm still met with a force far superior to mine each time

    Help!!!!!

    On a side not, love all the games content, sounds, music etc.

  • Natural Selection 2

    Quote from Sindwiller

    Agreed...anyone else feel they parted with there cash a little early on the preorder

    I guess you're the type of gamer who'd rather buy another installment of COD: Modern Warfare than support a more decent cause and a bunch of decent developers...

    Actually i'm not ;o and you know that Sind, because you know me . I guess this time i'm sat on the other side, so from my perspective things look quiet. I'm so used to knowing a games campaign structure.

    I'm looking forward to NS2, but like all excited little gamers i want things now ;D~.

    I'm hoping the game release will be around the same time as Edinburgh Interactive Festival. Spoke with Charlie about it last year but nothing was ready to show.

    Quote from Zacker

    Looks very promising and true to NS! There is however clearly a long way yet before this gets anywhere near release state.

  • Colour Managment Problems

    I'll give that ago, Thank Barrakid.

    Just to double check, driver for the monitor i would uninstall via Device Manager and colour managerment would come under Display Props > settings > advanced > Color managment tab and delete whatever is lurking in that.

  • Colour Managment Problems

    I've got a rather annoying problem.

    http://crazymac.net/misc/example.jpg

    Images pasted in or opened in adobe don't look the same as they do in say firefox. This also works the other way around, images saved in adobe don't look the same in firefox.

    As you can see the reds look very different when viewed in a browser then they do in photoshop (please ignore the colour settings).

    I have tried a hard reset of adobe (alt + ctrl + shift when opening PS) but i still get colour differences. Anyone know how i can link everything together or reset everything. It's actually a nightmare doing some work at home only to find the colours are screwed up once i get to work.

    (i use the same monitor at home and work)

    Many Thanks

  • Regarding Meatwad/MrH2o‏

    I just received this email from his girl friend...slightly shocked. Going to to try and contact Carina and see if i can get anymore info.

  • Edinburgh Interactive Festival - Screenings Call!

    Quote from FrieChamp

    This could be a cool opportunity for people who don't have the cash to have their own booth at E3!

    Indeed, this is what i'm hoping for. I would like people to just be able to turn with a disk and demo the mods. This will depend heavily on sponsorship though. But will let you know how it goes.

    Screenings will go ahead whatever.

  • Edinburgh Interactive Festival - Screenings Call!

    So as most of you know i work for a games pr agency. We help run the Edinburgh Interactive Festival, it's a 3 day long conference and game screenings. It's open to both industry and public folk alike. Excuse the cheesey sales video, but it will give you a better idea of what goes down and who in the industry we attract. [email protected]

    Even if you don't have a game to show off, the conference would be a perfect place to ram new technology and ideas into the face of some big names....or just come for the social side

    I'm also hoping to get a small area setup for mods to show of their stuff. More on this soon though.

  • Eidos and game reviews (again)

    You are all a bunch of fuckers (<3 Frie)

    Sent: Because everyone blames the PR company. Were paid to take the shit and make the client look awesome

    It's rather intresting seeing it from the otherside at least. Anyway, nothing i can say on that perticual topic...but most of you know me and the things i do for Barrington Harvey. The company has been around 20 years, we 'aint' some delboy outfit thats just appeared on the scene. I hope what came about on Friday wont be pinned against the companys name.
