yeah Grin is no more.I went to mcdonalds, philipk paid =)

Such a nice fella!

I just heard about it. That's really fucked up and sad... Grin certainly had one of the best teams put together in the world. I really hope other people (specially stupid CEOs) learn from Grin's mistakes to avoid shit like this in the future.

Good luck everyone, hope we meet one day

Quote from Evert

Remove me from grin.I guess that goes for all of grin-.

I have the exact same monitor here at work (dual screen setup). Although I can't complain about the screen quality (its not particularly GREAT either) it has a nasty habit of turning off two or three times a day. It happens to 90% of people who use them here.

I just hope we just got a faulty lot and it's not a common problem for this model.

BTW I recently got a similar looking 22" samsung screen, it was a bit cheaper but the screen quality is better imo

Someone should make a wax statue of Carmack while he's still young and hot!!

Quote from Sentura

the moon is nicely done, it's just a shame that the border "cuts it off" in size comparison.

damn you are right!

Thanks guys!

wilco: I actually think its a bit small

Here's a very WIP one. I kinda lost interest in this one so I'm not sure if it will ever get finished.

Never really heard of it until I saw those clips, decided to check it out, was really good!

Yup it's one of my all time favorites now

In fact anything from John Carpenter before 1995 is brilliant and should be checked out. (Escape from NY, Christine, etc)

Quote from Sentura

uhhh can you explain what you mean by this??

it's like they deliberately made the user interface too user friendly. everything is so rounded in speech and design that you have a hard time working around in it. i had to do guesswork to figure out how to do certain (perhaps more complex) operations on the operating system. it's like it wasn't geared towards someone with expertise at all. and if this is truly their goal, to give people the ability to fine tune a system without knowing anything about what happens when it is done or about the consequences of doing it, then i am against it. i'm not saying i'm against user friendliness, but there is a line where it crosses over to be fail safe idiot mode.

i also forgot to mention the price of their systems are much higher for the same specs of a regular computer, which is ludicrous. if design is so important, why not just buy a sculpture to hide your laptop in? i bet you could get that cheaper than whatever you pay for a macbook anyway.

finally: i call bullshit on same spec computers differing in benchmarks from a mac.

perhaps you should use lunix then sentura?

I made a short video this morning showing off one of the weapon items we have had working in the game for a little bit, but have never fully shown off. Here is my little description of how the weapon works:

3 months is old? I usually buy games 6 months - 1 year or more after they are out

I usually buy games 3 - 4 years or more after they are out

This is not EOT ffs.

Played it yesterday, it's awesome.

woot woot been meaning to get a 360 for years but those 3RL stories really scared me off. Microsoft has finally fixed the problem with the new jasper chips so I decided to get the arcade version, which is the bundle that comes with the jasper. I also got Force Unleashed as a free gift so it's an awesome deal.

I'll be buying a 60gb HD from a friend at work so after a lot of thought I came to a really good price altogether.

I also purchased a lot of games to catch up with all these years of PC gaming

So yeah:
