true enough in most cases but...rats? *hwwoorrf*

agreed. that shit be fucked up, yo. It's an interesting read and occasionally brilliant. It is, however, guilty of over indulgence. In this regard, I'd actually call the film adaptation the superior version.
-
go on then. I'll only catch it from you if I don't.

hahahahahahahaha come on, you surely didn't actually think that, did you?
-
are you insane? This has been one of the best years in gaming ever! come on! Braid Geometry Wars 2 Bionic Commando Farcry 2 Left 4 Dead Gears 2 GTA IV and that's just on 360. You seriously can't consider this any kind of low, surely?
-
If you've not seen it yet, I'd recommend Farcry 2 as a good example of a very substantial virtual world that's quite heavily limited by game mechanics and so on. Environmentally, it's a stunning realisation. As a world you influence, it's very much static and your presence has little effect.

dude, you're way too gay to be bi

i'm not convinced by it yet so a demo would be nice. the studio's demise and shakey EDGE coverage doesn't exactly fill me with confidence.

Dan_Dare replied to jayseven's topic in General Chit Chat
OK slight diversion from the Slither topic but I'll watch that this week once I get a copy off jayseven. I've finally decided on my entries! Oh Em Gee! What I'm going for is a theme of entrapment, escape and fantasy. check out my cohesive awesomeness. for my book, I'm going with The Collector by John Fowles. A dark, politically charged text in which a disturbed young working class man wins the lottery and spends his winnings to realise a grim, self deluding Romeo and Juliet fantasy by kidnapping a young, middle class girl he has been stalking. for my film I'm going for Brazil directed by Terry Guilliam. A surrealist take on 1984 in which the police state is an inescapable bureaucracy, suffocating the escapist dreams of Sam (Jonathan Pryce) untill a random error sends him in to a bizzare underworld of maverick plumber heroes, terrorists and prophetic dreams of freedom. -
too true. in other news: lololololololol http://www.gametrailers.com/player/usermovies/288112.html?playlist=featured

....Why am I not on a beer enhanced spice rampage? fuck this shit, yo.

not as quickly as 'quite unique' which means nothing

decided Invincible vol. 2 is essential christmas list material. I'm reading vol. 1 again and it just gets better and better.

I feel your pain with the housemate bullshit, Flink. I had some truly bizarre girls to live with at uni who did some stupid shit, then blamed me and Matt for the slightest indiscretion or whatever. It's a royal ballache- some people can be twats like that.
-
maybe I'm a picky asshole, but I'm actually really concerned with what a girl is in to with film, music, literature or whatever. It's a compatibility thing I guess- I just can't imagine spending my nights watching shit, listening to boring music or whatever with somebody who's not going to want to talk about anything interesting with me. Beyond that, I think I have pretty broad tastes with looks an the like. I mean, I have standards but I'd not be put off by somebody who wasn't my one true archetype or anything.
-
It's not the price that bothers me as i know I'll pay less anyway. I write freelance reviews and I now have a fair few watermarked games with PROMOTIONAL COPY NOT FOR RESALE on them. Luckily my indie guys don't give two shits about that and I can trade in with them (with every penny being 100% profit. zing!) so I'm just annoyed that their delivery sucked ass.
-
bit annoyed. My local indie/ small chain store, after expecting a delivery of this game all day friday (see above) only got two sodding copies and sold them both before I got in this afternoon. grr.
-
There are 26 of those in my freezer right now I intend to eat as many as humanly possible.

It was...I think...the 2nd arc of Grant Morrison's New X-Men relaunch. Basically, it turns out that Captain America is weapon I, Logan is Weapon X and I think they go as high as IV by that point. It's pretty epic.
-
bah. The only good thing Marvel have done with Weapon X is when they made X a numeral. That was a quality storyline. Let me guess- retconed by a spineless rewrite?
-
you what? to clarify, Logan with a son is OK (he was born in, what, 1920 something?) but from what you said I take it he also has claws, the healing factor etc etc? What's good about Wolverine is that he's a one off- an unstoppable living weapon. the more they keep doing this, and fucking with the Weapon programme, the worse he'll become as a character. Fucking chumps.
