Thankyou very much Gambit!

Go ahead and fire the nuke at the other two accounts, I can't even remember why I re-registered all those years ago when had an account already from even further back. No matter now though, just get rid.

Thanks again Gambit

It's nice to hear you got your problem sorted Gambit - I know how much of a bugger it can be to shift a virus, and you didn't take the easy and often unnecessary reformat option that so many people take.

Norton, and most retail 'protection programs', often do more damage than good, the one thing I ...

Hey guys,

Just imported Smash Bros Brawl for the Wii from the US and after a bit of a palaver, got it working. Thouroughly enjoying it and I would recommend it to anyone who was a fan of the previous games. The online play is not too shabby - I mean the Wii is no Xbox Live but hey, it's Nintendo we ...

This has to be the best flash game ever! So simple but quite a chuckle at the end :)

You absoultely must have Flash Player 9 installed before playing as the game is unplayable without it and the ending is immediately spoiled. You're best off ...

Clickety click!

Haha, gotta love them lolcats - I can't icanhascheezburger wasn't linked sooner. If you like Halo then head over to http://www.halolcats.com, some funny stuff there too.

Oh my, I laughed so hard.

Haha, what the hell is turbofolk?!!?

Ho ho, I just joined too. Nice to see you back again Paul too!

I was pretty impressed with it too. What really got me excited was the way that buildings are made up from indiviual pieces, meaning you can drive vehicles into them and they'll collapse. Not sure if it's going to be an updated Far Cry, apart from the suit tricks and small gameplay changes, it to me ...

There's not much that I think is worth saying that everyone above has said already. Wise words from everybody.

And as for that waiting game balls, I think Sophia hit the nail on the head there. If you like someone, you do and if you don't, you don't - simple as. Screw all this will they / won't ...

You definitely need to take a look at the official CS wiki. There's a few tutorials that I found invaluble.

One thing I really noticed from the CS is that the controls aren't really intuitive, especially after using UnrealEd. One guide on the official wiki named, quite simply 'A beginner's guide ...

Very impressive, even without any mapping. Can't wait to see how you progress with this. The scaling looks pretty good too - that's the bugger I've always had with Unreal, you have to make things super high because the default jump height is so high.

Hoho! They've just released the original Amiga version of SB2 on Xbox Live Arcade. I bought it and whilst it has the original Amiga graphics, there's some wierd 'High Definition' 3D graphics that you can use. I can't get used to the 3D look (even though it's still top-down) and I can't even begin to ...

Tried, but Oblivion's dungeons are made up from lots of meshes put together like building blocks. It'd get pretty boring pretty quickly going through levels looking exactly the same... wait a sec...

In all seriousness though, I've thought about doing it once or twice, but the Construction Set is ...

Remember those damn locked room games? Crimson, Viridian etc? Well apparently they're coming to the DS now in Japan! Seems a bit of a waste to me though as there's not much replay value in them on the net, let alone buying them for a games console. Although, for 11 quid / 22 US dollars / 21 Canadian ...

Ancient topic of the past! I've still got my 360 and play on it regularly. Just bought Forza 2 which kicks arse on so many levels. Not got Gears of War (and prob never will) Currently I'm chomping at the bit to get my hands on Mass Effect. Only three letters can describe that game - OMG.

One thing ...

When I lost someone close to me, noone in the house touched his computer for months, even though it was the only one in the house! Sounds daft I know but you want to keep things around for a bit until you can adjust and accept the situation. It takes time so just stick at it, but do it at your own ...

I know it's a bit late, but I've been way busy lately. bitza kinda said it all really. My hometown's Doncaster and my mum and bro still live there. They weren't affected homewise, but they couldn't get into work at all. Seems to have eased off a bit but from what I hear it's still pretty bad. My bro ...

Dungeon Master always makes it into someone's favoute's list in EDGE. They bloody love it.

There's one guy on our course who hates programming more than me and, funnily enough, he wants to be a producer!

Some nice points there boyflea and from another industry insider no less

Played the pre-alpha and it looks pretty promising. All they have is the first level mapped out with nothing else in it. You can walk around and that's about it. Can't really say much else about it until it's in a playable state.

Best off linking to the actual website as the forum Paul posted is ...

Group presentations were a semi-regular part of my business class, and those were a pain. I can only begin to imagine what building a game might have been like. "Not easy" is a start. I'd be interested to know how your group divided and managed the labor.

Urgh, group presentations. I've done my ...

Man, I feel for you. What could they possibly have expected you to accomplish with such a disgraceful set of tools? </sarcasm>

Forget games - become a comedian(!) Hoho, just kidding, I jest and do not mean to be harsh - I asked for it!

What I should have emphasised was the time constraint, not ...

A nice bit of reading there cows. I'm always interested to hear about the inside of the games industry and different people's opinions of it, especially when they raise some good points.

Video games have always been a passion of mine since I was a kid, and from an early age I was certain that the ...

If this does go ahead, you can count me in.

I hate Harry Potter but that was funny. I tell you what else I hate, when people quote killer lines on youtube vids in the comments section - it toatally ruined the end of that one for me :(

I don't know if anyone's seen or heard Weird Al's take on Ridin', called White and Nerdy (the original song ...

I don't normally mind smelling of pure alcohol - it's smelling of beer and whiskey that I'm not too fond of... That's it, pour ethanol on yourself, that's bound to cool you down.

(Actually don't - I don't want to be responsible for daft people pouring alcohol on themselves and then catching fire ...

Bloody wet wipes, they make you smell really odd once you've used them. And sometimes leave you feeling all sticky

Yeah it probably does, but I'm telling you it was a godsend last summer when the temps in this country peaked at 37.5 degrees C. Unbearable it was!
