Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy
So much fun the first time round and then...
I would really like to see a fourth installment, something with some decent saber gameplay.

The noise people's heads make when they explode in RE is very satisfying.

Some old DOS games that have been resurrected using the DOS Box emulator and a front-end called DOS Shell.

The co-op is a bit odd in this game. Rather than have a second co-op game from the main it's just you playing the main game and someone joins as the secondary character. I didn't think anyone would join, but there is no shortage of people joining the game just to follow you around.

Weird.

Co-Op is fun, real fun.

It's certainly better. The second person gets their own money, it's not even split between you, if you get 100g, so does she, and vice versa, so between levels she can stack herself up with her own gear meaning you don't have to share with her leaving more guns and ammo for you.

So I was playing FFXII, and there was this scene where the teenage girl Vanille and the Australian sounding woman Fang meet up after a separation. They're old friends, so they hug and stuff. Then they pull apart a little but they're still kinda holding each other close. Vanille has one arm around Fang, and the other she places of Fang's chest. Like, right on her tit! And she holds it there for a least a couple seconds. Long enough for me to say, "Holy shit, she's got her hand right on Fang's tit!" And then, "She's really got her hand right on Fang's tit!" And then finally, "Wow, she's still got her hand right on Fang's tit!" And then afterwards I was all like, "Wow, she actually had her hand right on Fang's tit!"
So, um, yeah.
People think "queue" is just "q" followed by 4 silent letters.

But those letters are not silent.

They're just waiting their turn.

This is Vanille, by the way:

And this is Fang:

Now imagine Vanille's hand on Fang's tit!

They're lesbians.

Whoop de doo.

It's a dull game with shitty characters.

Are they lesbians or are you just saying that to be funny :ask:

Now that I know what I'm doing in the game, it's not so frustrating. And I think it's a very interesting game with great characters :dono:

Yes, they're lesbians.

It's still a dull game and it still has shitty characters.

Just started playing Fallout 3 again and I forgot just how brilliant the game was.
Some of the off-beat extras are really, yeah... Sometimes hilarious, sometimes depressing.

Though I've taken brief breaks lately for Elder Scrolls: Oblivion and BioShock II, I remain mostly a Lord of the Rings Online junkie. Now that it's gone free-to-play, if anybody's interested in messing around with it on the US/Aussie servers, make a character on the Elendilmir server and PM me here, and I'll be happy to craft you some decent starter gear and help out with quests if time permits.
