Off Topic / The Amazing 'post Your Desktop' Thread
« on: January 22, 2004, 07:03:01 PM »
You never know when the feds might come...must be ever watchful. I don't feel like uploading my desktop. It's very simple though: has two icons (Recycle Bin and Files). The desktop itself is just a portion of the cover of the Thirteenth Step album (the face of a woman with that slug-like animal on it). It's also inverted color-wise.

Or I didn't know....oops. Never heard about that perma ban. If I was a gansta I'd say, "My bad," but I'm not; so I guess a lock will do.
EDIT: You can still give me props though, Bob.

Don't get me wrong, Wind Waker was a blast to play. The cel-shading added amazing style to it also. Right now, the Zelda series may still be turning out quality products, but the point I was trying to make is that eventually, it will start to become more bland. Also, I admit that in theory there are no limits to what people can come up with in a game. But you have to take in account that people's minds usually think in certain ways; this in turn blocks them from venturing into new places. The only true way to keep fresh new ideas in a game series is to have different production directors while having guidlines that still keep it true to the series. Also, if I'm not mistaken, I think I recall that there was someone else behind Wind Waker along with Miyamoto.

Fanboyism is the devil! I like a lot of series and look forward to the next installment. But believe me, I won't disagree with someone because they don't like a series and call them "stupid." Also, if a new installment in a series (that I like) sucks, I won't like it just because it's part of the series. Although the Matrix triology has to do with movies, it's a good example. The first was good; the second one sucked major ass; the third was just average. I was a fan of the first, but I acknowledge that the others weren't good.
It is foolish to think a game is good because you liked every other game in the series. The fact is that no matter how good a series was in the beginning [it goes for Zelda, MGS, RE (never really impressed me much), FF, etc.], it will always degrade in quality. People's imaginations can go only so far before ideas start to be recycled. This is also more apparent when the same designer of a series directs the sequel each time.

Yup it worked good for Tribes 2 (I haven't played the original). The only problem is I'd always mess up when I switched to the regualr FPS controls in another game. So I had to get used to it after I started playing a different game each time.

Nice. Good ideas just keep coming from ya. Usually people start to suck their comics up, but these are staying good.

I can vouch that it is an excellent and annoying destraction when a civilian does it. He has it down to perfection.

General / Did Steam Just Crash Or Something?
« on: January 19, 2004, 07:24:09 PM »
Isamil, it wasn't working for me earlier. I tried a half hour or so later and it still didn't work. So I said ###### it; I'm not gonna play NS today. It is the only real problem that I've had with Steam though...

General / Your Funniest Mistake When You Were A Newbie
« on: January 17, 2004, 10:59:01 AM »
I haven't made any really stupid mistakes, but the reason is because my buddy Blaq went over the basics before I even played.

Off Topic / Explain Your Name
« on: January 15, 2004, 06:37:33 AM »
Hmm, I don't know how long I've had this name. I think I've had it a little over a half of a year. I got it when I used to play UT2003 all the time. I figured that I should have a name that would strike some form of fear into my enemies when I did lovely shock combos. So, since my name doesn't mean I love you or something similar, I thought it would work. I decided that I liked it because it was simple and looked fine on screen. Also, most people don't use it for a name on a forum, for example (or don't know what it means, but that's because they're illiterate :p). So are you scared yet? If so it's doing its job.

The only really bad experience I can remember is when this idiot started dropping almost 5 TFs in MS. He was such a retarded comm. Oh, and he didn't care about capping any res, just those TFs.
