He means the gap between starting and getting the crowbar (the train ride, train station, barney, etc.)

that is all before kleiners lab

you dont get the crowbar until you leave the lab

People dont like Generels because it barely deserves the CnC name what with the worker units (gasp) and campy current events setting. It should of been a campy alternate history or future

Co-op doesnt involve taking on player controlled enemies Snipa

Neat but sounds a bit clunky to me overall ;o

Looks very good. Just a nitpick, between the garage and those generator things it doesn't look as if there would be enough room for a truck or anything to park though of course that has no effect on gameplay or anything ;o

- if you play other MMOs (like WoW, EQ, etc) but not FFXI, why not?

I play WoW casually (wheres its faster to level up by just doing the right quests then to grind), theres no way I'd commit to the grind-a-thon that is FFXI.

Take the warcraft out of WoW and you still have a fun game. Take the FF away from FFXI and you have something that looks like dozens of other MMOs

Final Fantasy V and VI are the best ones imo.

I still believe to this day that pokemon is a rip off of the "trainer" class from FFV that thew silver balls at monsters to capture them and release them as attacks.

Dabbling in World of Warcraft again, still gets boring too soon tho D:

Sounds reasonable that you don't want to feed a competitor's wallet, but Gabe Newell's take (the podcast after Scott's) was interesting too: 3D Realms licenses competitor's engines like many other studios do or work together with Nintendo and Sony for their consoles although these companies develop their 1st party titles as well.

Yes, they licensed an engine from id wich is a competitor and are releasing for the Xbox360 wich is owned by another competitor, Microsoft.

Wasnt there something called Triton or soemthing, I think Prey was released on that first.

Hmm, If I remember correctly its possible to make your own tile sets

What are the new features?

Thing is though, part of the allure of distrbuting through Steam are the associated names of Valve, Half-Life and Counter-Strike wich by themselves attract a huge audience.

What's funny about this is Prey is available through Steam as of tomorrow.

lol

edit: btw does anyone know if I can register my old retail copy of Call of Duty with Steam?

Quote from zaphod

Guy's got a point, how independent is Valve being when episode two comes out, and everything gets pushed off the front page.

The games on the front page are randomized. Sure when Episode 2 comes out it will get a spot in that large news thing, but then so does every other game released on Steam.

Nay, Im the true Link Stealing Mastar for I stole this link months ago, before mino even new about it!

I posted this when I joined Mapcore last spring :\

Company of Heroes!

I saw it in the store and bought it despite having decided to wait till I upgrade

The HL2 pistol is a USP
