    Half Life Series and Story Discussion

    I think Half-Life 2 is not as good as the prequel, but only in the same way that Fallout 2 is not as good as its prequel. It did some things better, but some things worse. Both are still worthy of playing though. Opposing Force was an awesome addon, and I hope Adrian Shephard returns...

    Games that you gave an 2nd look.

    There's only one game I can remember giving a second look, and that Mortal Kombat on the PC back in 1994. I tried getting somewhere in it on the first go, but I couldn't figure out anything except the basic moves so I gave it up. A few weeks later I found a partial list of the special moves, and...

    University of Reading creates "Rat-Cyborg"

    We must build rat-bots of our own! We must not allow a rat-bot gap!

    EVE Online

    EvE is notorious for having poor single player content. It's all about the PvP. Also, the reason you don't make friends as easily is because the following are the top rules of EvE: 1: Don't trust anyone. 2: Do. Not. Ever. Trust. Anyone. 3: There is no such thing as a fair fight...

    Decent Sci-Fi FPS

    You mean October 2010, right?

    The top 50 video game moments

    Generally, I can't find anything wrong with that list, except for the SimCity one. Something which only happens in one version of the game isn't exactly something I would put on a top list of anything. At least not positive. Several moments I would put in the list: Doom: Meeting the...

    MacGyver movie?

    This film's budget will comprise of a bent wire hanger, a toothpick and a sheet of chewing gum. YET IT WILL MAKE MILLIONS.

    Rare Chernobyl Clip - Vladimir Shevchenko

    Words cannot describe how this video affects me. I was 7 when this happened, but I still remember seeing it on the news back then. Here's a thought for ya: If everyone had been told about the dangers of a nuclear power plant breaking down like that, who would have done the work needed to...

    Who else is on the 4870x2 bandwagon?

    To hell with whatever this thread was about: Tell me about the Drobo. Is it good?

    The Three Questions from "Holy Grail"

    Good questions here. Mine would be: 1: What is my name? 2: What is my quest? 3: Do these robes make me look fat?

    The most retarded things you've ever done

    While bored and sleepy at school, I shoved a pencil into an electrical outlet. I was wide awake for the rest of the day.

    Show us where your avatar is taken from

    I nicked mine from some forum I stumbled across some years ago. I asked to have the background changed so it wouldn't contrast to greatly to the NMA board's black profile (by one of the locals here, thank you) but otherwise it's unchanged.

    Bernie Mac - Dead at 50.

    Call me jaded or uncaring, but I feel absolutely nothing about the death of this man. The only thing about him that I see worth commenting on is that he worked himself up to Hollywood stardom from poverty.

    Who'd win? Terminator or Robocop?

    In the Robocop vs Terminator comic mini-series, Robocop won. But the Robocop franchise was raped first (and harder) so the Terminator franchise got the upper hand there. The score is currently 1-1. Time for a rematch.

    GTA IV finally confirmed and dated for the PC

    I'll chime in with the "gave up on GTA VC because of the remote helicopter mission" crowd. I'll admit though that I didn't find the game that interesting, except for the radio.

    PC Gaming, now and then

    Yes, games have become easier over the years. One of the biggest factors there is that developers identified redundant gameplay elements designed only to frustrate and annoy players and removed them. Examples of this are the countless ways to die in any given Sierra adventure game, games that...

    Mass Effect for PC is...

    Sadly, hearing Cree Summer's voice these days makes me think of Foxxy Love (Drawn Together) more than Tandi. Also, Lance Henriksen is in Mass Effect, which has nothing to do with Fallout but is cool as hell anyway. I really don't know whether I should play this game. I played KOTOR about...

    Gamespot UK plays Fallout 3 (again)

    Unkillable children. This isn't Fallout, you know.
