I'm tempted to ctrl c+ctrl v a bunch of reviews I wrote on another site to here.

In other news, tetris is awesome.

Yeah look it up on steam

Favorite games:

1. World of Tanks
WWII tank simulation game with 15v15 tank battles. My highest tier tank right now is a Hetzer, I'm researching for a new radio.

2. Nexuiz
Fast-paced FPS game with lots of gore and almost immediate respawns.

3. OpenRA and Red Alert 2
Sequels to the original Command & Conquer, the mother of modern RTS games.

4. Minecraft
Multiplayer building game.

5. Portal and Half Life series
Excellent games by Valve.

I always wanted to play Age of Empires but never wanted to take the time. Same with about 5 million other games.

On a related note, the Humble Indie Bundle 3 is out
http://www.humblebundle.com/?hib3

11 indie games (now including HIB 2) for one price, which you set. You also control how much goes to the publishers, two charities, and the HIB site.
Its a pretty cool thing, the games are cross platform (win/mac/linux!) and rather fun.

1 dollar seems reasonable, it wouldnt convert my £ to $ on the paypal though

Firetooth · August 05, 2011, 02:03:25 PM

A great deal on amazon is £5 for Deus ex and Deus ex invisible war, or £10 for the Orange box (5 of the best pc games ever, no hyperbole there, in one box)

Pippin · August 05, 2011, 02:12:20 PM

team fortress 2 is pretty good, free on steam

Firetooth · August 05, 2011, 02:29:10 PM

Never got into tf2, probably the only title on the orange box I don't love to death. Probably cause I'm a noob and am a console kiddie with the intellect of a mentally challenged rock.

(I spend too much time around PC elitists)

Pippin · August 05, 2011, 02:37:43 PM

its an alright game pretty good online you rock

Firetooth · August 10, 2011, 02:12:08 PM

Playing morrowind because I'm lazy and never brought Oblivion, just borrowed it for two months.

"AH yes, we've been expecting to you!" (the game had some great graphics for the time, but man the character models aren't great)

The only beter "Ah yes" in gaming is "Ah yes, Reapers." :P

Pippin · August 10, 2011, 02:13:20 PM

fallout 3 is best

Ashyra Nightwing · August 10, 2011, 02:34:03 PM

ah yes, reapers

man, mass effect 2 is a really good game. *currently replaying*

I would totally have got that humble bundle thing if I didn't already have Braid and my laptop was at all capable of PC GAMING (I can't even get Minecraft to run any more)

also noticed something: the top contributor to that thing is the bitcoin people bahahaha

Shadow · August 10, 2011, 03:07:29 PM

Also funny to notice the stats for contributions based on the operating system. PC users are cheapskates. The humble indy bundle is kind of passive aggressive about their choice of posted stats ^_^
