What music? O.o Edit: Saw it in "What are you listening to". Not a bad song. Garbage has some good stuff.

What are you even quoting? Edit: Derp, saw the song.

Agreed, FTL is definitely not an obscure game. Moving this to Games in General.

Looking through the forum, going to bed.

Yeah, pretty much.

I never played Hover! personally, but I probably would've back in the day.

Looks like an interesting game, although I've still not gotten into the series.

Unless the game is multiplayer, it makes no sense to me. But let's stay on topic.

I'm locking this thread to prevent further spam.

Yep, TF2 counts.

I'm sure you mean Alyx, not Alyxx. And yeah, I'm not saying that there's anything wrong with Gordon being an empty shell character, just that it's not what I prefer.

You don't like EA, is what it seems to me. You like all the companies that EA has swallowed and made work. Sure. Whatever.

Aliens: Colonial Marines.

It certainly seems like it... Agreed. It's fine that people wanna give advice but giving advice based on assumptions is just not working.

The Matrix Revolutions since I actually enjoyed it. Cartoon Network. Never liked Spongebob. Spaghetti or pasta?

Rocking out to Antiloop.

SLAP!

I like the remake of Most Wanted. Crappy isn't the word I'd use about it. It has its flaws yes but I enjoy it overall. I really love the Autolog features for one. So yeah, I like EA. Sue me, whatever.

Hehe, let's try and stay serious here, guys. This is serious discussion after all. I know what I said may sound a bit "conspiracy nut" like but it's my belief and I am definitely not wearing any tinfoil hat or taking antidote to water. But please, stay on topic.

Yeah, Mossman also didn't really have that much personality and she felt very underdeveloped. She was just an obvious traitor from the get-go. Magnusson also felt a bit flat although I dug the microwave reference. I think my least favourite character probably is Gordon himself though. He has zero personality, never says a word and we only know his backstory basically. While this is cool and all and lets the player be more immersed... I dunno, I guess I just prefer shooters like Duke Nukem Forever, Blood, Shadow Warrior, Eradicator or SiN where you have characters who talk. Gordon always felt very too much like Doomguy to me. I mean, either make him totally anonymous or give him a full personality. It just didn't work with Gordon imo. Giving him a backstory but zero personality just didn't make sense and still doesn't. This is why I am such a huge fan of Freeman's Mind. Ross gives Gordon so much needed personality and quirks and I think everyone agrees on that. It's honestly more fun watching Freeman's Mind than playing the game.

No one should have Steam and not own Valve games imo.

Don't really miss them to be honest. They never really made any games I'm any huge fan of. Sure, some of their games were cool, like Red Faction, but for me, they were always just kinda there. I don't really give a f*ck if you hate me for this, but I'm a bigger fan of EA in this case since they're behind some of my favourite games ever like Mass Effect, Bulletstorm, Syndicate, and not to mention Need For Speed and so on and THQ just haven't given me anything in particular that's been to my taste or has affected me like those games. Sure, Red Faction was really cool but it came kinda short for me.

I'd guess it was disabled so that the focus could be on Freeman's voice. Music would be pretty distracting. Which is exactly why he used music only when it was supposed to be distracting. In other words, more control over the soundscape in the video which is essential when making videos. Not a big deal when gaming but keep in mind Freeman's Mind is not a Let's Play. I'm guessing Freeman would either get really annoyed at it and shut it off or just ignore it.
