Salsa, have you *really* spent a year playing Universe Sandbox?

With all the time you spend on 3DS, something doesn't add up here. :p

I love system shock and deus ex as much as the next guy (was never big on thief) but a Trinity would hopefully contain more genres

Yeah, I feel like either Starcraft, Civ IV or Fallout 2 should be up there.
But for FPP games, it's not a bad group of games.

Strange -- how long have you had that achievement? Maybe a glitch in the Playfire scrubber... since they don't usually backdate achievements.

Yeah, I don't know anyone personally, but I've heard from fellow GAFers that there are measures in place to catch people just unlocking things with SAM.

Please don't do that brah. I really wish this whole "fedora" thing had never been promulgated. The whole insult has lost its meaning, just like "neckbeard" and many other terms the widespread internet has beaten to a pulp.

The original Shadow Warrior was just a bad game, tho, that had to get its fame from the HAHAHAHATHEYSAIDWANG level of jokes and the weird weapons.

Blinded by the luminous glory that is David Bowie's physical manifestation.
Apparently the new Humble Weekly from Destructoid is individual keys? Can someone please confirm this so I can spend $6 on Natural Selection 2 and Critter Crunch double-dip and give the rest of no1currs to modbot, please?

Murdered: Soul Suspect just got cheaper in Euro, I think? Standard price is 40€ now, but pre-order discount is 25% so it ends up short of 30. I think it was like 50€ with 10% discount before.

Yeah, played the classic redux a bit before the reboot and I'm glad it wasn't a faithful one cus that game sucked.

Who thought small, fast moving hornets would be a good enemy in a Build engine game?

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.

I must have like a gold account or something because they responded to my ticket literally the first hour of the first business day after I submitted it. This was back in the fall too closing in on the holiday season.

Was your issue something widespread / common? If not, maybe you just got lucky that day.

Gah! Another one!

Surely I'm not the only person who played the old Shadow Warrior in the last few years (though it wasn't on Steam/Redux version for me) and still loved it ? Love the level design in that game too as well as the weapons, one liners.

Nope, sorry.
It paled in comparison to Duke and even Blood on pretty much every level at launch, and it hasn't aged gracefully like Duke has.

Yes I agree, I love games like Call of Duty that always tell me what I need to do or where I need to go, I don't even have to think for myself.

I didn't even like Shadow Warrior very much in the 90s. Now Blood we can talk about. I haven't played it in a long time so I'm going to continue assuming the weapons and that train level are still pretty awesome.

Sorry. :X I just didn't find a lot of the combat design all that satisfying. The weapons were mostly weak feeling (how do you screw up a shotgun I'll never know) and you just frequently fought annoying enemies like the ones that have a chance at bursting into spirit momentarily after killing them. The reboot took a game that was not really all that worth rebooting and turned it into something good on its own merits.

Duke 3D and Blood are good though, but the level design in Duke is extremely hit and miss.

Blood is one of the finest FPS ever made and shits on Shadow Warrior so no you've got that one absolutely right :)

Fuckin Atari though, bastards.

You don't need to apologise, I'm just yanking yer chain :p Opinions and all that. I adore how they approached the remake and think Flying Wild Hog did a fantastic job with it. One of my favourite FPS from last year :)

If we exchange SS2 and T2 for Monkey Island 2 and Fallout 2 then I agree.

If it were a trinity of (mostly) garbage, then you'd be right.
