the recent Chronicles of Riddick game had 50% of the achievements online. I checked it out once, played for maybe fiver minutes and fled. the game was absolutely awful online- irredeemably shit and yet the devs had seen fit to weight the achievements available massively towards it. It's a shame, because that game is otherwise damn good. Halo 3 had this one absolutely infuriating achievement that I never got. Now, I'm pretty good at Halo by all accounts but the one where you have to get a double kill with the Spartan Laser in a ranked free for all game of slayer just takes the piss. There's just like...no scenarios that ever allow you do get it pretty much. And your timing has to be perfect (if you don't know, the SL is like a giant sniper rifle that charges up to fire then goes through several targets) It'd be a monumental achievement to get, and yet it's only 5g. WTAF.

Interestingly, it would be literally impossible for me to learn sign language. I can't make complex enough shapes with my right hand.

a bumfluff beard is like writing ID ME, FUCKER on your face. Funny story: Corporation in Sheffield used to be notorious for letting the under age in- it was pretty much guaranteed entry at 16+. Then a 14 year old girl got her tits out for Zoo, got published and the place was investigated by the cops. They now ID everyone

Ah it's piss easy. What you don't see there though is that i used the grid piece to align the top layer by eye then used coordinates to neaten things up. The best tip is to pick a height and stick to it for everything.

So how are you guys finding Forge? After inviting Some Guy over in to my Forge session to 'see how it was going' we ended up in a 3 hour marathon Forge session that saw Fire Core go from rough concept to a fully feldged, multi storey extravaganza. We kicked ass, with some really cool ideas and buildings pulling together something of a tour de force for the aesthetic potential of forge. I have a bunch of shots that aren't on b.net just yet but this one has come through and gives a reasonable idea of what we did. More tomorrow. Fire Core by Dr Oatker feat. Some Guy

Wait, Silicone Knights? Huh. Now, either I get excited because they made Eternal Darkness (underrated, absolutely awesome game) or I shit one because Too Human was proper bumflakes. I'll get back to you when I make up my mind.

Bungie toned down Gruntpocalypse in the update. It's about the same as everything else now. I got 777cr on the slot machine last night that put me on 1500+ for one game. Half my team quit too but we still kicked their asses.

Guys, come on. It's early October.

There isn't one. Just play the game! daily challenges boost your haul but every game generally = 700-900 points anyway.

N-Europe prevails!

Well seeing as my music taste is not lead by my dick, no. No interest.

HIMYM actually has a surprisingly high amount of continuity for a sit com of its kind. I'd say you may as well watch it all as it is very good right from the start and you'd miss some great jokes.

Exactly. Total loss of any tension and drama right there.

Fuck Yeah! Birthright is bloody brilliant. (originlol)

The Matrix sequels are, by no small margin, the nadir of human civilisation. They are truly the worst of the worst. The first film was a tightly scripted action movie / thriller with more or less perfect structure. It has character arcs, drama, genuinely ground breaking direction and SFX and one of the coolest concepts behind it that I can think of. To date, it's probably the best action movie since Die Hard. It was clever, surprising and a joy to watch. The sequels are just...nothing. They do, say, achieve or even try to accomplish absolutely nothing. The reliance on 'The One' totally undermines pretty much every core concept of character, drama and structure that all good cinema is based on (and which made the first film so good) and as such, they are not only poor, boring films, but they fail completely as narrative works of fiction and cinema on every fundamental level ever conceived.

Oh, Sega. Do fuck off and give these games to a good studio...

ooh Secret Identity! that's ace. I know I've missed Avenger's #5 and Iron Man #30- unsure about the rest. Most likely Captain America too

Fucking Hell, forum. I'm so bastard behind on comics. Slightly rocky means of acquisition before and a two week sojourn to London has totally thrown me. I have no idea what I've even missed.

Last time I really cried was when my cat Elvis died. He had a long life and I knew it was coming but he was my cat more than anyone's. He was my buddy and he absolutely adored me so when he went it was really hard. I still get down thinking about it, actually.

Don't make me ban you

quick protip- the advanced settings allow you to place items according to coordinates. Use that for getting items to line up exactly.

I think the slight problem with the story is that after a fairly concise intro it kind of meanders in to little disconnected sequences that don't feel connected enough. It tightens back up once you get back from orbit though and the last few levels are absolutely awesome.
