Quote from Mazy
Just felt that it lost a lot of momentum after they had nailed down which guy it was. Also , when he asks her to kill him off after the last round where "he sets things right", when he found the second phone I totally thought there was actually two bombers instead of one. That would've been an amazing ending, with him realizing that but being unable to tell them
Yeah, ending was too happy
never having watched this movie, this sounds like a boss ending
Quote from JetsetlemmingI wish more people used Gamersgate (or, alternatively, Gamersgate was better at selling itself). The storefront's their website, and you download and install games and run them directly. But the problem there is that Gamersgate customers have no reason to regularly revisit Gamersgate after buying their game, since seeing GG's website/store is not necessary to play their game after it's installed. This hurts their ability to sell shit to people, something Valve clearly does not have a problem with. EA wants to have Steam, they don't want to have Gamersgate. This is pretty understandable when you look at the scale of sales figures.Still, Gamersgate's pretty sweet. Lots of obscure eastern games and indie bullshit. It's where I bought Pathologic! Steam doesn't have no fucking Pathologic!
funny, i was thinking of an example of how it could be done otherwise and this was basically what i came up with. i guess one way to keep people coming back to the store would be to advertise it, like putting in a pre game advert saying, "yadda yadda bought to you from GG, visit yadda yadda". but of course, it's not anywhere near as coherent or as elegant as having a DDP with a store program. the the problem lies in the contrast between having a program only for a store, and having said program minimize the impact on user experience and system resources. i don't know how to solve this, but then i'm not the one getting paid presumably thousands of dollars to think this shit up.
don't get me wrong, i'm glad to see a competitor to steam as well. the reason i am not installing/using origin, is that i don't need another copy of steam nested in my memory only to play less than a handful of games. i don't understand how they could be thinking "oh right, people will definitely want another game browser and store IN ADDITION to steam". it's like whenever there's a new mmo out and it basically copies world of warcraft. what the hell is the point? you create a lesser version of something already in existence, then of course people aren't going to use it over the better version... especially if the better version has existed for years. and blackmailing users into installing it by making games exclusive to the distribution platform? how about instead of forcing your potential customers to use your distribution platform, you actually make a distribution platform that people WANT to use?
Quote from ErraticThat decision to make more profit without giving a cut to valve?
well obviously it's about numbers, i'm just wondering how it pays off for them.

woop, guess who won't be getting mass effect 3!
i'm also beginning to think that the reason why ea pulled their shit from steam was that valve wouldn't let them link into origin somehow. i'm still dumbfounded over the decision.

Quote from PuddyDota 2... slowly but surely gatting the hang of it (emphasis on the slowly). Pretty fun.
lemme know if you and skjalg/e-freak want to take a game
i guess either they updated it or it's my internet that is too slow, now it seems to change after a loading period
Quote from RedYagerMy favourite part is the meat grinder (I think its called that) where they send the reporter down that passage. It was actually pretty scary, the whole film was almost terrifying even though nothing happens. I think its a great example of how horror films and games can create more tension and overall scare factor, simply by having nothing.
holy shit, they actually made a movie based on roadside picnic? i fucking loved that book. is it just called stalker?
Quote from Jetsetlemmingonly the cities labeled on the globe view have that high detail
you mean like new york? even copenhagen is labelled, but i still only get shitty textures
changed the shit so we dont have to recreate shit for 2012
i don't even get those textures, all i get is basically a 2d terrain texture over some bad uv mapping
i don't know if it's just me, but every texture is really low resolution?
yeah it was interesting given the tension the series had given between m&s, but it was just nowhere near as good as the first 7. i think i only ever got halfway through season 8, and i only watched the first episode of season 9.
