This may be what I'm after. Thanks! Cursory googling shows someone running CS5 on it (albeit with slowdown), so with any luck I can track one down in the next couple days.

Killer is Dead is currently US$6.79 on Steam. Gogogogo!
CHINGUYA!
The Genius season 3 finished up last night. The finale was excellent, as was the rest of the season overall.
If you're someone who had been turned off by the events of season 2, don't let that dissuade you from returning to watch the show. It is hard to improve on the cast and events of season 1 and I don't think anyone would expect this. Season 3 is a worthy successor. The issues raised by the events of season 2 and suspicions held by some viewers have been addressed.
There is more I want to say, just one sentence, maybe even one word would suffice. However, I think doing so would be enough to put thoughts into the heads of any who may decide to watch it, or others who are yet to view the season final which may taint the experience. All I'll say is that I am sure the bitter taste left by season 2 will be dissolved by the sweetness of season 3.

Done! Thanks for the heads-up
So good.
I liked it as much as season 1. Well, maybe not as much since it was still fresh back then, but this was still a great season. Anyone who enjoyed season 1 should watch it and forget about season 2.
What season 2 issues?
I'll admit I stopped watching season 2 probably with about 4 eps to go.
I don't really know why.. something just didnt work for me.. but it would be interesting to hear what others didn't like.
also Rahk and Evls weekly discussions indeed make me want to watch it.
The main issues were the alliances that formed and the games often enabled the main group to easily muscle the others out. It wasn't so much about skill, mental aptitude, or cunning as it was about outnumbering others. This was exemplified in the infamous episode where Doohee was eliminated. He had a crucial item stolen during a match and literally could not participate in the match. It played out exactly like a schoolyard bully routine where it was claimed to be "a joke that went too far". Each episode films over roughly 8 hours, so he was rightfully upset. This was followed up by him being set up for the ultimate betrayal and elimination at the episode end.
The other issue people had was that some deathmatches seemed to appear at particularly opportune times. Yohwan was up for elimination and laser chess makes an appearance as the deathmatch, where Yohwan is at a distinct advantage.
Both issues bothered me, the former more-so than the latter. Yohwan tanking on purpose throughout the season was also rather grating as the games often fell apart once this begun.
Season 2 was a misstep, but I think it has caused the show to improve. It wasn't without it's moments but, while those moments were great, I think it's best forgotten. You'll see in the first episode of season 3 how they addressed these issues and came back strong.

Man I hate flying longhaul. Taking off and landing is fun but fuuuuck
Waited 3 hours on the tarmac in Seoul because of snow and ice before a 5 hour flight to Vietnam where I am currently waiting a couple of hours to take a 9 hour flight to Sydney. Kill me now. It's not till I'm in the midst of a long haul flight that I remember how terrible they are. Hopefully I can become rich enough one day to avoid economy.
So good! I've been watching it as it releases but haven't really felt the need to talk about it ITT. For my discussion fix I've been talking to Koreans about it though I have tow wait about a week after they watch it to see it lol.
Overall it was more smooth and satisfying than season 2 though I still liked season 2 for the most part.

Holy fucking shit, how did I not know this? Bennett Foddy, creator of QWOP (and Sportsfriends) is Australian. He was also a bassist for Cut Copy.
Had no idea at all. Cool bit of trivia!

I have followed you on Spotify!
BTW on Spotify I'm hidys40 if anyone wants to follow me.
so long as you resist the lure of the gaming zeitgeist or the shiny call to buy new things
i have a steam, psn and 3ds backlog a mile long and i still want to just buy things
fucking built in consumerismmmm
Would it be because it's hard to keep track of instore stock during xmas? Surely all that stuff is computerised anyway.
Good tip, will use.
IIRC he's one of those dirty born-in-australia-moved-to-england types.
But at the same time he's likely one of the smartest independent developers in gaming.

Well yeah, he left Australia so I'd expect that was a good career decision.

Rookie mistake. Drink more water whilst drinking, eat before drinking. No hangover.
NB: Drinking shit alcohol with bad preservatives will make hangovers unavoidable.

Kritz when are you opening a Tasmanian studio. You've got to kick start the Tassie games industry.

At least you'd have a high head count at a studio down there
huehuehue
it's the water that got me. I had a big bowl of rice and chicken before drinking. Polished off a six pack of little creatures in about 40-60 minutes, was still going fine, then the vodka and gin and baleys came out and that was me done. Didn't start drinking water until it was too late.
Tell you what though, watching a movie when you've shot your entire short term memory is one hell of an experience.
hey we have at least one kind-of-but-not-really company in hobart cbd that makes things that loosely fit the definition of games. Good ol' Secret Lab.

I think you should just join forces with Dr Lewis and make the greatest game of all time.

Ha that's neat. Love me some cut copy.
Where are you talking to koreans about it all? I want to talk to koreans
In Korea lol. I just came back today from a semester exchange at Korea University, so I spent about 4 months living in Seoul. Was wicked.
I believe there is a threshold that if you drink to, this advice no longer applies. I should probably stop drinking so much lol.

Rockstar have Spotify playlists of the in game music from various GTA games. Neat!

GTA 3 definitely had the best talk-back, with VCPR in a close second.
I only liked about 3 stations in SA, whereas almost all of VC is great. So great that I bought the CD box set.
IV and V have some great stuff, but I think they suffer somewhat from having so many tracks spread across so many stations.

Are they by Rockstar, or just unofficial? You'll find a near infinite amount of unofficial playlists that cover soundtracks for various movies.
Oh yes. I heard him speak at one GDC, his accent was a dead giveaway.
Shit! Thanks for sharing.
I remember seeing them at the 2004 or05 bdo, to a crowd of about 10 people. Loved their ep and first album and was so hyped.
Year or threeo later they packed out what ever stage theyw ere on.

Apparently the Kalgoorlie map in Super Poleriders wasn't enough of a give away.

Maybe there is, but I never hit that. I only fuck up by not following the golden rules.
