    New Fallout World Record

    Heh, the bugs are the only reason why the ToEE run wasn't posted at the same time as the Fallout run. The only one that effects the run is when I'm completely unable to find secret doors. I was helping to plan an Arcanum run, but a friend of mine seemed like he wanted to do it more. However...

    New Fallout World Record

    Glad to know you guys liked it. I won't be attempting to do this run again without finding some major new tricks. My next run will probably be for Temple of Elemental Evil. I'm pretty sure I can get that under 10 minutes as well.

    Gothic II, just played the demo . . Wow!!!

    I forgot about that. OK, I guess I saw it in stores twice.

    Gothic II, just played the demo . . Wow!!!

    They have stopped publishing it. I've only seen it in stores once, and I bought it when I found it. Gothic 1 has a better storyline and better atmosphere, but the gameplay in Gothic 2 is better. Both of them are still great games. The expansion pack to Gothic 2 is pretty cool too. It ties up...

    McDonald's Coffee case

    She was a 79 year old woman who probably no longer has the motor skills that you have. The jury lessoned the amount the woman received, because they concluded she was 20% at fault for the burns because she spilled it herself. McDonald's was still serving something that was extremely dangerous...

    McDonald's Coffee case

    Instead of getting the Warning Labels thread further off-topic, I decided to create a new thread about this. Here are the facts of the case http://www.centerjd.org/free/mythbusters-free/MB_mcdonalds.htm. As linked to in the other thread, here is another point of view...

    How did you discover Fallout ?

    In 1998, I had recently switched over from being a console gamer, to being a PC gamer. I was looking for a good RPG, and I read PCGamer's reviews for both Fallout 2 and Balder's Gate. Balder's Gate got a higher score, but Fallout 2 looked different to me, so I decided to buy that. After playing...

    Replaying Old Games

    I'm almost constantly replaying Fallout and Fallout 2. Right now I'm playing through Dungeon Keeper 2 again. I have played a lot of System Shock 2 lately as well. I frequently revisit Master of Orion 2 when I'm bored of my current games. I occasionaly play through Arcanum again, if I can get...

    Warning Labels

    Yes, but the lawsuit was not a frivolous one like many claim. The woman received third-degree burns from the coffee. If the coffee can cause third degree burns, it is way too hot.

    The OLD Zelda games..........

    No, it's not. It's legal to make a backup copy from your version, but you cannot download a backup someone else made of the software.

    The OLD Zelda games..........

    Complain about copyright laws, not the companies who still support old games. Even if Nintendo did not rerelease the games, it would not be legal to download them. Copyright does not expire just because the product is no longer in stores. The biggest problem is with companies like Disney who...

    Fallout Vault Overseer bug

    While attempting a speedrun, I encountered a weird bug at the end of the game when you are supposed to talk to the vault overseer. The vault overseer was missing, and after a few seconds the game just went to the end cutscene as normal. I was running the game on Windows XP SP2, and I just...
