How do I get this?

You don't. It's a mockup. Also, since it's friday and Notch seems back home, expect another obligatory secret Friday update today!

I play this every now and then to kill time, and always on Hard difficulty. It's fun to find a massive cavern, explore it and as soon as you turn around ..... SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS, THOUSANDS OF THEM!

I died 3 times trying to get my items back

oh god what is this I am not good with computer

Replaying through Borderlands again, now that the DLCs were cheap as hell on Steam last week. I still need to play as Brick sometime, never done it passed level 20 or so

Apart from that, it's Minecraft whenever I'm bored, and I'm running a server on my netbook even. Eventually I fire up Battlefield Bad Company 2 and have a few rage-filled rounds (seriously, every team sucks!). Oh and I still play World of Warcraft, but since my guild has cleared all content there is now, we have gone into a slack-mode until Cataclysm is released.

Maybe HP's left leg is much shorter than the other

Here's a tool for anyone who wants to have detailed analysis of replays : http://sites.google.com/site/sc2gears/

Still havn't played through the placement matches, and I even fail hard at the Basic challenges. Might as well just yank the cable out of my computer when I run SC2. Multitasking gives me a headache by just the thought of it...

Get the Psi Disruptor from Zerg research and they won't be a problem anymore, on missions like the last. Lets your units rain down hell even longer before any zerg reaches you.

Being awful as I am at online play, I'm reading up on the editor like what it can do etc, and god damn this is massive.

Oh god, the hologram dancer in the cantina is doing the female Night Elf dance.

Installed, and updating...

Hopefully I can pick up a delicious Collectors Edition tomorrow morning

EDIT: The local Gamestop got my SC2 CE already, and locked away in a safe, away from the reach of customers who might try grab it by morning.

You could before the update enclose the map in a giant sky-box solid and it compiled just fine, since it somehow didn't get turned into a func_detail. But now it doesn't work of course.

From the latest update:

- Updated Hammer’s simple compile options

This means you can't enclose the map in a huge hollow solid anymore. You have to make it into a func_brush named "structure_seal". The old way spews leaks, the new doesn't. It's like everything is suddenly backwards

Had a quick look at the SDK (it has a few maps included), and it's clear there is a heavy use of instances, and not much different from making maps for any other source game, except you don't include any ceiling, and black out the areas you can't reach with ... well, black textures.

Behold! Overloaded servers! Downloading at nearly 1 nanobyte/sec. Swedish server is hammered :<

Also, an achievement in the game earns you a hat in Team Fortress 2.

I just bought the special edition, aiding the GOOD FIGHT. Now, if the Spark Editor could work at a framerate higher than ... 1 ... it would be great

This movie will be another fail. 2 hours of film revolving around a random bunch of people stuck in an elevator? Come on.

You can still build anything but normal sentries with The Gunslinger. It works like a wrench too!
