Black magic. Don't you know that all MLP fans are cultists? ;P

I won't deny that I've always played Duke Nukem games simply because they have Duke Nukem in them, but maybe the issue is that in general I'm not much of a critic. The only game I've really hated is Dreamfall, the sequel to The Longest Journey. Otherwise I pretty much never complain about anything in games.

All I'm saying is that the 2-weapon mechanic in Duke Nukem Forever never ruined the fun for me personally and I simply don't understand why everyone picks on it for that. You have easy access to most of the game's weapons and during boss battles you have easy access to both ammunition and powerful weapons. It's never a problem, so why do people make it one? I understand where they are coming from but I just think they are being narrow-minded.

I have not played halo 1 My earliest gaming memory was spyro. From there it got more and more violent with games. When I said "2 weapons really at a time really ?" I was talking about duke nukem forever. Its not like its just single player. there is a 16 player coop mode. a survival mode. and all the other versus type modes. So it should probably be full price. Also serious Sam 3 will have melee attacks,new guns and old,new enemies and old, huge bosses and finally aiming down the sights of some weapons. You're still probably one of the youngest members on the forum if your earliest gaming memory is Spyro (mine's Duke Nukem 1 on PC). And I didn't really mind the 2 weapon mechanic in Duke Nukem Forever. They sort of added a 4 weapon inventory anyway on the PC so I'm not complaining. It adds a bit of realism to the character and makes the game more strategic in a way. It never made sense to me that a character should go around with 10 weapons on his body. it would look ridicilous and impossible. But Duke can probably carry two guns in his backpack or something at a time. But yeah, anyway, I rarely spend my time nitpicking on a game because of stuff like that, I just play it and take it as a whole experience. And as a whole, Duke Nukem Forever is actually really good if you take into consideration the variety of levels, the inventive fun of fighting as micro-Duke, and using weapons that frankly are completely unique. I honestly don't get why people love to hate on Duke Nukem Forever. It's not like the 2 weapon thing is unique to that game either. Why wasn't it a problem in Halo or Call of Duty? Why is it such a problem in Duke? The game is still a ton of fun for me.

I think the only reason people bought the PS2 was because it combined a game system with a DVD player so people had this sense of saving money on it. Otherwise, it's not a bad system but I can't really think of any good games for it that weren't also on PC with much better controls. And often the ones people mention, like God of War, aren't games I've ever had any relationship to. I mean, where did Wipeout, Crash Bandicoot and Spyro go? After the PS1 they all sort of vanished or started sucking... The biggest reason people bought the PS2 was Grand Theft Auto but even those games also got released on PC anyway and were much more modable on the PC.

Banned for changing signature game. Seriously though, what version is that? Looks kinda C64'ish.

Videodrome 5/5 The best psychological thriller ever made, and certainly one of the most thought provoking. Even today the effects look amazing and realistic as hell, even if the movie is kind of a mind trip. I consider it Cronenberg's Blade Runner, in the sense it's his diretorial masterpiece just like BR was Ridley Scott's masterpiece.

You're starting to become somewhat the master of derailing threads, Username. Not sure I approve. But since this is a general chat, I'll let you slide.

Virtual Machine is free for personal non-commercial use but it still works like a real machine and you still need a key for the OS you install on it. In theory you could run Windows 7 inside a virtual machine in Windows Vista, but as have been stated, it would be pretty useless since Windows 7 is newer and the best thing would be to install it on your real machine, period, and maybe run Vista or XP in a virtual machine if you have problems running older software.

I think custom designs are always the best tattoos because they are totally unique in that sense. If I ever got a tattoo, it would be my own design and it would certainly be something that had a lot of symbolic meaning to me.

Just finished playing some Deus Ex HR. Going to bed. Good night, everybody!

I agree with BTF. It could do better as a budget title.

It's hard to explain, but basically with a virtual machine you can run XP at the same time as Windows 7 as two separate systems, but with Windows 7 acting as a host system. It's complicated.

Banned for misspelling plioec.

Ah, like the patch that was on XP. I might be interested in getting that one.

Username, if you take FGB's age into consideration, is that really such a surprise? The kid's earliest game memory is probably Halo.

Some Borderlands multiplayer. It's quite fun to work together.

May I ask what kind of skin/theme app you are using?

Banned for using that image without permission. ;P

Looks pretty good. Are you using WindowBlinds?

STOP BUMPING OLD THREADS. There's no rule against it, so I don't see why there is a problem with it. It's better than making new ones for the same topic so I have to merge them, don't you agree?

Please get back on topic.

Body art is very fascinating. Often people get tattoos that have a very personal symbolism to them and you can often tell who a person is by looking at their tattoos if they are serious about it and didn't just do it while drunk or something or just to show off.
