  1. Apogee Software / 3D Realms - Duke Nukem.
  2. Some of the soundtrack was included on an audio CD released with the Unreal Anthology DVD.
  3. And he scores.
  4. I stick to foxy.
  5. Eradicator was an obscure first person shooter (with an optional third person view) released for DOS PC (and only PC afaik) in 1996-1997 by Eidos Interactive and developed by the now defunct Accolade Software. It never gained popularity and faded away due to falling under the shadow of the technically superior Quake and other more well known shooters such as Duke Nukem 3D, Shadow Warrior and even Redneck Rampage (which is another sort of obscure FPS). It uses the Build engine by Ken Silverman, which was also used for the aforementioned games, except Quake. Taking place in a science fiction setting and being a shooter with some platforming elements, the basic premise of the game is to survive the onslaught of enemy rogue robots and defense droids, some you can even take control of using remote controls and make it out of "the citadel", a huge mining installation which has fallen under the attack of an alien leader. Usually your protagonist is alone against the enemy forces, much like in Doom and Quake, though the game still has a very distinct atmosphere. You can control three different characters, each with their own levels to complete and each with their own unique skills. Dan Blaze (no relation to Billy Blaze or BJ Blazkowitz) is the most balanced one and is logically the first one to complete with. The game can also be played multiplayer, either co-op or deathmatch, and even supports IPX networking. Due to Accolade having become defunct and Eidos no longer offering support for the game, it has become abandonware and can easily be obtained on the internet legally, and used copies can be found on eBay easily and cheaply due to the game's obscurity. The game can be played on modern post-DOS systems using DOSBox. Screenshots:
  6. I have Duke Nukem, Duke Nukem II, Duke Nukem 3D and Duke Nukem MP installed atm. Me? Warming up? Never...
  7. FTW for the win
  8. I think 16 gigs is the limit for modern motherboards anyway. Might as well get as much performance out of it as possible.
  9. The CoD games sell like bacon crisps though, mostly for the multiplayer I imagine.
  10. When someone mentions "paranormal" I think of Fox Mulder.
  11. I uninstalled Internet Explorer long ago.
  12. That explains a lot...
  13. Apoptygma Berzerk - More Serotonin... Please
  14. Well, technically it would be the second movie since Kill Bill is one movie, just cut into two volumes...
  15. I'm a fan of it too. Goes well with waffles.
  16. I think it's called Gjetost in the US (the old spelling of Geitost which means Goat Cheese, though not all of it is made from goat milk actually).
  17. I don't get them that often, hardly at all in fact.
  18. Shiny Toy Guns - You Are The One
  19. Good god that one is catchy... XD a-ha - The Sun Always Shines On T.V. (Final Concert 2010)
  20. So yeah, I'm definitely not hyped about it. Besides, I've barely played Crysis 1 to begin with.
  21. The Crysis 2 commercial annoyed me so much that it kind of put me off buying the game. Seriously, did we need a commercial with an annoying mainstream commercial rap/R&B/hiphop tune to watch every time I wanna watch something on GameTrailers? And what's up with the lyrics? The rivers are failing, the Nomad's... bawling? Bowling? Brawling? AGH!
  22. Yep, that's what Arnold feeds on. Steroids and wienerschnitzels.
  23. FIRST! lol
  24. I bet if a car had steroids in it, Arnold Schwarzenegger would punch through the window to grab them.
  25. I thought it was rather funny
