Duck and Cover

Been on #fallout, eh?

Nah I rarely delete posts, they're in the wasteland. I do edit them however, mostly to piss people off.

I propose solidarity with System Shock fans, at least the ones at Shock and Cover, who're complaining about precisely the opposite. Not that surprising I guess. The idea seemed like shit to me when I heard about it, but they pulled it off pretty well all considered. Then again, I don't compare it t...

Saw the intro elsewhere and decided to pop in for a sec. Can't believe they're still using the Gamebryo engine, it looks pretty shit. The whole thing rubs me the wrong way. Played bioshock 2 recently and it had more atmosphere and story in it than all of Fo3. Was actually pretty good for a linear sh...

Samsung is overpriced. I bought a widescreen 24" full HD ASUS monitor. Works fine, doesn't cost much, decent specs. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?item=N82E16824236049 The only scary thing about a large widescreen LCD is that you get used to it very quickly, and that all 4:3 screens...

If it would be a Fallout movie which game would it follow, I wonder? It would likely be an interpretation of whatever gimmicks seem the most interesting from across all the games. Mistakes they're bound to make: Most likely the BoS would be implemented completely wrong, as usual, and portrayed as t...

I recognize that there are different reasons for wearing hajibs and burkas. It's a thing I've been thinking about since I wrote my first post, and like you just pointed out, the attire might be in their interest in protecting themselves. I don't think a full ban would be appropriate or do any good. ...

How is it xenophobic, when I don't refer to heritage in any way? In general, I don't mind any difference, other than maybe really primitive societies such as tribes or extremely rural middle eastern/african villages, because of a lack of basic civility. But isn't it fair that I don't want any influe...

There've been suggestions here as well, to ban religious/cultural covering clothes, such as burkas and any cloth meant to conceal hair. It's a strange proposal, because while it makes sense in some places, there's really no point in making a general law about it. The somewhat valid concerns, in my o...

I doubt it. But that was incidentally one of the first games I played. Along with shufflepuck and some 3d flight simulator in black and white.

New season is pretty good.

Remember kids, slinging guns break the rules of physics and thermodynamics. Everyone knows that.

Yes, they are. But it only goes to prove that a game with shitty graphics can still be an excellent experience.

Loved the first, hated the second. I still install both from time to time to try them in a different way.

I've got absolutely no tip for you. Although now I wish I was playing Monkey Island. Or Grim Fandango... Just finished Crysis, which was on sale on steam. Turned out to be pretty bad compared to what I expected, short, linear and corny. Sounds like the anal, yet oral, discharge of what comes out of ...

I hope those pubes crawl in and rip your tongue out.

You're positively ancient mate.

Not only an MMO player, but also a Final Fantasy fan. Dun dun dunnnnnnnnn

I quit raiding, and I'm currently between guilds.
Ahhh freedom.

Trim. Your. Mustache.

IT'S MAGICK!

Unless you're a skilled lockpicker of course, then it's "fair".
