I thought I would somehow punch through their left and then scissor back and melee from behind, driving them toward my cannons.

None of that happened.

Good. I'm ashamed that Australia is letting religious practices/morality dictate secular law, I thought we had moved passed institutionalised discrimination.


I await a brain-breakingly stupid editorial from Barnaby Joyce, criticising the advert as an infringement of - simultaneously - Australia's Judaeo-Christian heritage and Enlightenment principles.

what topics are you guys covering at the moment?
Sorry rez, didnt notice this before.

We're using lua in tandem with Gamebryo's "Toolbench" application, which is sort of a WYSIWYG editor, very similar to Unity's. It uses lua to interface with the Gamebryo engine. We're using it for rapid prototyping. We thought up this game last week (3d roguelike) and they're expecting a completed 1st stage prototype by Friday night where we'll have to present.

Basically you create a model (its like uml), which is just an object, then drag some other properties it should inherit from (ie: Actor for animation, Mesh for a static mesh etc) and, depending on what we need, implement "behaviours" which are the lua scripts, which trigger based on certain actions we define.

So we could have in our actionfile, the space key to trigger the lua script (all scripts are global, beh) "MoveForward". This script fires and modifies the model it's attached to. And so on.

Pretty sure Oblivion was created in much this way.

Just finished reading A Game of Thrones, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Though it does have its own contained story, it appears that it is a big setup for what is to come.
 
EB expo tickets on sale soon. Is anyone coming along?
If anyone is keen to organize a meetup and accommodation etc i will be driving down with a couple of mates.

Tickets for the EB expo go on sale about now.

I'm sure it'll be a great day for a lot of gamers, but it really doesn't look like my kind of thing. Highly commercial; big focus on AAA console games; manboobs guaranteed; over-inflated cost of entry; and convened by the standard-bearer of retail mediocrity.

I'll probably go, but I'll wear my extra-hipster hipster glasses just so everyone knows how much I don't want to be there.

CHANNEL 9 has reignited the Sydney versus Melbourne feud, promoting national program A Current Affair by trashing Sydney as out of touch with the rest of the country.

Nine this week launched a "made in Melbourne" campaign for ACA, claiming it as a Victorian show, despite executive producer Grant Williams and senior staff working out of the network's Willoughby head office, its base since 1971.

Down south the ad declares ACA to be a Melbourne program and says "the other 6.30pm shows all come out of Sydney - so how can they possibly understand the issues affecting us?"

LOL

Channel 9 obviously not realising that people in Melbourne talk to people in Sydney and this was always going to be known up here

I've got a feeling the comic wasn't originally in English.

Why does Club Nintendo Australia have to be so shit? I have 3200 stars and there is literally nothing worth getting. Towels Nintendow, towels? REALLY?!

What I never got about comics was the tendency of the people writing them to bold random words even though it makes no sense, even if you use the bold as emphasis.
What do you mean? I have no issue with it.
 
Just found out i may be down in Sydney 15/16/17 june for work training.

Anyone like to meet me for a drink and show me around the city? (never been before)

Wouldn’t even need to go to provide accurate coverage of the event:

- Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 trailer is shown. Once again you can pull right trigger to make a terrorist be dead; you play as a character that dies; and shit gets ‘real’.
- A bunch of already-seen media rehashed from E3 is re-shown.
- Nintendo shows literally nothing new.
- A neckbearded early 20-something man with a bustline a lactating wet nurse would be proud of shows up wearing a ‘The Cake is a Lie’ t-shirt and has an exponentially more fun than me despite remaining oblivious to his cultural irrelevance.
- I sit in line for a game longer than I get to play it and enjoy it less than the round of Ticket to Ride I played on my iPad whilst waiting.
- Washed up ex-Indy girls line working as booth babes line the exhibition hall and smile awkwardly all day.
- I pay $8.50 for a hotdog that takes all of 20 minutes to take an adventure through my digestive tract. I spend more time on the dunny than I did digesting it.
- Some loser who paid $100 for a VIP pass acts all smug for the entire day but goes back to his shitty life on Monday whilst I go back to being awesome.
- I finally get more than half a dozen 3DS streetpass hits, but as it is now October, I have finally lost interest in Streetpass.

I bought the iPad version for my girlfriend the other day, which has essentially ended any chance of me ever using my iPad again.

Also, she is learning some gaming lingo as a result. I heard her yell "fucking ragequitters!" from the other room last night.

I have a feeling any spare moment I have during October will be spent preparing for Supanovember.

Speaking of which, I did a comic about Shinobi during my lunch break. Feels good man etc. Screw this 'taking time to unwind' crap

How much are the tickets? I'm assuming they will be at least $20 more expensive than similar Expos.
$30 per session (with three sessions, two on Saturday and one on sunday). There's also VIP passes for $100 per session that let you jump queues and stuff.

3 Day Passes are only $30 when you trade in any 3 weekend passes from other Game Expos*

This is hilarious - Aussies still don't have Kinect voice control.

I did a little bit of digging. The company that did the Kinect voice testing and implementation finished their work in November 2010! That's seven months ago!
