Whoops! Oh wow, that is completely my fault! Edited with better link.

Hello everyone Though I haven't visited the forum in quite some time, I still enjoy coming to the Escapist every week for my mandatory Yhatzee fix. I have also lurked and been quietly delighted by the site's relative dedication to the free and open market place of ideas. I maintain that this...

I can't speak to your specific experience because you didn't specify what episode you watched, but one of the first and most important things to note about FiM is that it is a highly varied show. Not only does the content vary widely (having done everything from your completely bog-standard...

What's that from 3:45 to 4:05?

Hey people. I saw a brief clip of this game in one of Jim Sterling's videos, but when he says the title of the game, I can't quite make out what he's saying. It does look interesting, though, so do any of you know what game he was talking about? Thanks in advance...

Could someone tell me what the name of game we briefly see from 2:20 to 2:25 is? I can't quite make out what Jim says...

You mean unelectable as a Republican, right? Even so, although he wasn't the sort of conservative modern neo-cons like to think that he ws, his policies still managed to screw America over something chronic... http://newsjunkiepost.com/2011/02/06/the-disastrous-legacy-of-ronald-reagan-in-charts/

I may as well give this question a serious answer: Pong is basically the same as the first cars, planes, steam locomotives, or films, which were all also primitive bits of crud, but were "revolutionary" in that they were the first to serve a particular function (Pong, for example, was the...

So Minecraft is going to combine with The King's Speech (Yeah, I know... I don't see very many films) and Volume 1 of "Traffic Engineering and Management"? Hmm... I suppose using Minecraft logic to construct a roadway so George VI can get to one of his speeches WOULD be pretty awesome...

"Fuck You" by Cee Lo Green? That'll work. :D

*sigh* Insert your own NEDM reference here... Anyway, is anyone really surprised? Soulless eighth-wits the world over do this sort of shit to animals all the time... Attacks like that one just doesn't get posted online very often and ESPECIALLY not on YouTube. As for catching these bastards...

Heh... The best part, I just realised, is that your ship in Starlancer comes complete with Mike "Moose" Horrigan in the back seat, acting as your co-pilot. If I CAN'T fly the thing, he can always take over. :-P

Umm, it's the last WEAPON you used in a game though, and I don't think Catherine actually has weapons, does it? Anyway, I was just flying a Grendel class starfighter from Starlancer about an hour ago. It has twin gattling plasma cannons, twin laser cannons, a light rear-mounted laser turret...

EDIT: Opps... Double post...

My top obscure picks would be Conquest: Frontier Wars and Civil War Generals 2: Grant, Lee, Sherman. The former was released in 2001 and, like Age of Mythology, has excellent graphics for the time. At first glance it appears to be fairly standard, with three races, the Terrans, Mantis and...
