    Black Mesa or Aperture science

    The other day 2007 called and reminded me to play Portal for the first time, and it was pretty good. Does anyone know anything about a Portal Gun being put into any other FPSs?

    Poll: Fallout:England-Would it Work?

    Isn't Hellgate: London pretty close, if a far inferior game?

    The Hurt Locker: Iraq's Full Metal Jacket?

    I think we are making the wrong call comparing this stinky dead fish to other war movies. If you are looking for a good analogy, I would say Hurt Locker is to realistic war movies as Beverly Hills Cop or Lethal Weapon are to realistic police movies. The first time I saw this (with several...

    Warhammer 40k And E3

    Agreed, having a squad as your character would allow the various factions to be represented. Who'd be a Guardsman if you can be a Spess Marine, but if you can be 10 Guardsmen on the other hand... Not to mention the fact that it would be a clear way to differentiate it from the bazillion...

    L4D2 AI worse?

    I've noticed it as well, whereas in L4D1 you could still survive with an AI teammate or two, (as long as you weren't on Expert) now it's almost unplayable at any level with any AI Survivors. I think they were just right in 1, aside from MAYBE being a tiny bit too accurate with the long-range...

    Poll: There is no justifiable reason for civilians to own modern weapons.

    For additional reading on Concealed Carry permits: http://www.kc3.com/CCWSTATS.html I know in my home state no handgun crime has EVER been committed by a CCWP holder. That fact taken with the number of crimes prevented by CCWP holders is pretty significant, wouldn't you say? While I see...

    Poll: There is no justifiable reason for civilians to own modern weapons.

    First of all, I'll state that I am an infantry soldier in the American army who lives on Fort Hood. I was close enough to hear the shooting (which I assume is what precipitated this thread) last week. Even in spite of all that, I am still steadfastly in support of the 2nd amendment...

    Create your L4D2 gamemode

    I would love to see a 'Living Dead' mode (from the graphic novel) where you gather other survivors and carve out a safe zone to live in in the post Z-day world. Not really a game mode so much as a set of persistent sandboxes saved on your computer that you can go and play in every now and...

    anyone got any experience with kittens??

    You may not want to hear this, but your best bet is to get another one. Nothing occupies a kitten's hyperkinetic energy and meth-addict attention span like another kitten. Also: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aEjKk5Kt3rs&feature=fvw

    Zero Punctuation: Duke Nukem Forever

    Possibly even funnier, I also thought the thread about the "Halo killer gets life" had something to do with Gears of War 2...

    Zero Punctuation: Duke Nukem Forever

    Just coming back from Afghanistan after a year, I'll have to admit being a little embarrassed it took me a good minute or two to figure out the joke :)
