I think you're a lot less likely to get a server-crushing slashdot effect if the story is only posted in the 'games' section, which isn't displayed by default for most slashdotters.

We should run a poll on who is the hottest chick in the Gemini Sector. My vote goes for Captain Sandra Goodin.

Yeah, I would imagine that most of the bad stuff would have settled to the ground. That pretty much gives you three options: 1. Scrub everything down really good. 2. Dig up lots of deep rock and bury sections that you want to reinhabit. 3. Wait for everything to cool off (long, long...

As I recall, it's not so much the radioactive particles zipping around that cause ill effects, it's the radiation that ingested radioactive molecules give off that cause the trouble. Nuclear blasts in the air (hundreds of meters above the ground) have a much wider destructive area, and throw...

Looks pretty slick Mamiya! Good job!

Especially in C&C Red Alert, when Tanya would lean over the table, showing off her goods to the camera.

I grew up on the old text parser adventure games. I sometimes miss a good adventure game... but I take solace in the fact that adventure game elements are finding their way into more mainstream games. Like Knights of the Old Republic for one. There were tons of (good) puzzles, and problems...

Well, "Repair All" costs 19k right now. That's more than a tachyon gun!!!! just to get ride of some fritzing HUD elements. Yeah, after I took care of the Dralthi bothering me I could jump fine. Roger, won't dump my artifact from now on. : )

OK, here's a couple more I've turned up: -I couldn't jump to safety once because apparently an enemy was present. I't's only happened once, but if this is the way it is, I think it should be changed. -I cannot find any way to repair my HUD! There's no 'repair hud' item for sale at either...

Just played for like two hours. Here are some of my thoughts on improvements: -Automatic landing zones should be automatic, not require hitting the D key. -The 'Repair All' button sucks; too expensive, and you should be able to choose what components you repair. -Planets should regenerate...

that was me, by the way

My suggestion: Leave the Stiletto in for now. When we get around to doing some extra content, missions, ships, art, etc. on our own... we can have a Privateer+ (or something) pack, that is either opt-in or opt-out. Probably opt-out. But easy to opt-out (or in). Because I am thinking...

Seriously, if this really is a huge deal, then instead of bitching and moaning, LOAF could just make a CIC-branded purist release. That's the way things are done in open source-style projects like this.

Etheral brought this up over on the Vega Strike off topic forums. It's some kind of program that interpolatizes pixelicious images, and outputs something at a higher resolution. It looks darn good in some cases, and not too bad in others...

I just watched the first ep of season 4 last night. Not bad. Well, maybe really bad (alien Nazis). But bad in one of those really good kind of ways. Whenever I see a Nazi get killed in movies or on television, there's always a good bit of glee... but also some small bit of guilt at...

Gwyneth Paltrow's news reporter character snooping around in some obviously bluescreened parts gave me a bizarre vision of a strange Laura Bow FMV adventure game. I'm a sucker for this kind of movie. Even if it sucks, I'll love it.

I WAS gonna say "Space 1999", and maybe the 1999 tricked you into thinking it was in the '90s... but I actually remember the show you're talking about. The reason all those people were on the Moon was because there was a nuclear accident in their town. I THINK it might have been named after...
