Yeah, they've changed both of those. Basically you get rewarded for significantly more things, now. Did damage to an aircraft? Points. Hurt someone who then crashed/jumped off a cliff? You now get credit for the kill. You also get a little bonus pile of experience for every 10 kills you get with...

Alright chaps, as you may be aware, Planetside 2 recently came out with a recruitment reward system. As a sucker for cosmetics, I would like to benefit from this but unfortunately have already recruited most of my friends. Rather than simply spam my code, however, I would like to go about the...

Jita local is hillarious right now because of this. First time I've seen more spam from things other than scamming. Greatly entertaining.

See, much as the wand looks stoopid, I do, at this stage, prefer it to kinect. Sony are right, the accuracy is (presumably) far better and dammit you need some form of buttons for the majority of serious games, if only to move your character around.

Eh. No. Kind of. We're no longer working on a system whereby only the fit, strong, intelligent or all three survive. That doesn't mean we're not evolving. It simply means that there are less selection pressures to strongly channel the evolution. Again, that's not a bad thing, per se. Y'see, when...

Right, I'm calling it. First two pokemon, now three. We'll be seeing full pokemon armies in a turned based (or possibly even real time) strategy game before long. Catch them, Train them, Battle them, Rule them. For the first time ever, you will be able to catch and deploy over one thousand...

Oh good lord, really? I once fought them all off then reloaded the game because I thought you had to die fighting. Good grief.

But remember children, Yeaaah!

Actually, at the time I was thinking of England. But I have to concede the aussies also have a rather strong claim to the same title.

Yes, and no. Y'see, the class four laser isn't the OMGWTFBBQ laser. It's anything above a class three laser, which means it can potentially burn or harm. However, the military grade lasers they're currently playing around with, are inordinately more powerful than this particular match lighter...

Oh my lawd. My friends, it's perhaps the most deadly of it's kind ever, in the same sense a particularly strong perfume could be touted as being the most deadly of it's kind ever. As in it isn't. Being killed by one of these things would be more embarassing than being killed with a lone match...

Eh, yeah. We've actually had pretty powerful lasers available to us for quite a while now. I had a mate who used to pop balloons with one he nabbed off teh interwebs for about a tenner. Laser tech of awesome has kinda snuck up on us, actually.

Ok, blame Nuke for a sudden influx of people who haven't been seen on the forums for aaages! Simultaneously armed and 'armless!

Bwuh... Sorry, are you actually arguing that junk food is worse than smoking... because it gives you acne? As opposed to lung cancer? Eh?

It's all a conspiracy by Nintendo, you realise? They wanted to sabotage all the competition. Microsoft, they knew, was too strong. The Evil Empire could not be infiltrated, the code... could not be changed. So they sent forth the gremlins to the factories, the shipping plants, to place...
