@SaintWacko What game?

I just found @Strix's messages about playing KSP. Do you still play that?

@AshleyNunn Hammerwatch

@AshleyNunn It's awesome-sauce!

Q: How does the swing system work?

I just got Tiger Woods PGA Tour 12 for my IPod. I am having trouble understanding the swing/aiming system Couple of Examples Lie:Fairway 98% Club:7 iron Aim Marker: Right on the hole and it says 96% Now in this first scenario is the Swing meter already set up for 96% to be the max or should...

Q: I have DLC and want 2 PSN accounts

So I have an online PSN account with DLC and I want to make a second online PSN account and I want to keep the DLC. Would the DLC be on both online PSN accounts?

Q: How do i get rid of lots of horses in Minecraft (while avoiding killing the horses in the stable)

They are causing a lot of lag. (i can normally run the game at over 60 FPS)

@fbueckert I never got into it. I tried it out shortly after buying it and it was too complicated to get into on short notice. I still have a backlog of Steam games I'm working through, plus I'm trying to dedicate time to writing, but it's in the queue to give more time to eventually.

7:02 PM

@StrixVaria crashtastic.com

KSP for dumb people

␢

@GnomeSlice I saw Nerd3's play of this and the video was really entertaining, but now I've already pretty much had enough of it from the one video.

@StrixVaria Boo.

@StrixVaria Yeah I know what you mean

It's like I've already seen everything it has to offer

Jul 18 at 18:59, by Retrosaur

@OrigamiRobot This user's location is "The Moon" and description being "Gamer's Sister :P"

Oh, never mind. It was Retro.

7:05 PM

@fbueckert Ah, that's what you meant ... Yeh, that was Retro.

IDK if I'd call that legwork.

The fact that I mix you two up says strange things about my brain's organizational system.

random question for you - I've never played Gears of War (any of them), is it worth doing so for the single player campaign?

@fbueckert Oh, it says a lot about what you think about me. :(

3

if so, which ones are worth playing?

7:06 PM

@OrigamiRobot It's rather conclusive.

@fbueckert I just wouldn't call it work, leg or otherwise.

@OrigamiRobot Fair enough.

@Polynomial I enjoyed single player more than multiplayer, but I don't really like the series.

I never play multiplayer on FPS.

It's third person.

7:08 PM

well, TPS

whatever :P

:P

I enjoyed the SP campaigns for most of the recent AAA shooter titles, oddly enough. I guess they're just about engaging enough to keep me occupied, despite the complete lack of anything remotely cerebral.

GoW is a game. I wouldn't recommend buying it, but if you have it or it is gifted to you, play it.

heh

I played multiplayer a lot, but that was more to listen to people whine.

7:11 PM

@OrigamiRobot Vanquish

@OrigamiRobot that's the bit I dislike.

GoW parody which is actually better than GoW

@LessPop_MoreFizz Did you ever hear about how last night's broadcast panned out? I'd be interested to see what results they got.

in my experience, GoW's multiplayer was exactly like Egoraptor's parody.

ALL ABOARD THE CHOO CHOO¬

ALL ABOARD THE COAL TRAIN BABY

@Polynomial Incidentally your avatar is the best.

7:15 PM

@Fluttershy ಠ_ಠ

A porkchop, a kiwi, a banana, and a carrot...

@Polynomial I recommend Vanquish instead. And it is absolutely worth playing for the campaign.

@OrigamiRobot Yes?

Sounds like a bad joke.

7:18 PM

@GnomeSlice haha cheers :P

was just thinking that Vanquish looks pretty effin' awesome

Now I want to play it again.

It's so amazing.

One of my favourite games of all time.

Also, if you can find a copy of it anywhere, I highly recommend Metal Arms

Excellent third person shooty platformer

@GnomeSlice <3 Metal Arms

@OrigamiRobot So good.

only things I get really frustrated with in third-person shooters is the chest-high-wall trope and press-THAT-ONE-KEY-to-do-everything-ever controls

@Polynomial "That's GoW in a nutshell."

7:20 PM

@Polynomial GoW pioneered the one button cover system.

:/

And it's my main complaint.

Vanquish Vanquish Vanquish Vanquish

seriously that's the one thing that pissed me off beyond belief in ME3

First boss battle

fucking amazing

7:21 PM

I WANT TO DIVE PAST THAT WALL NOT STICK TO IT

^

or the inverse

I wanna stick to cover, not duck and stand up and roll

and pick up gun

@Polynomial Vanquish uses different buttons for all that shit

@GnomeSlice so... get Vanquish then? kekeke

@GnomeSlice that game is amazing.. so under-rated.

@Polynomial Yes.

7:22 PM

i wish they could make a sequel

@Jin It's fucking so good.

@Jin 'could'?

it's probably the best 3rd person shooter i've played

@Jin You're under-rated.

@Jin Yeah, that.

it kinda looks like a mixture between Resistance, GoW, Crysis, and Unreal Tournament

but just the good bits from each

7:23 PM

@Jin also

that's a really nice review of Vanquish.

user image

10/10 would bang

3

I bet there's no rule34 of her at all... /s

␢

7:24 PM

bies

@Polynomial surprisingly little.

Also she's a genius.

@GnomeSlice I like that you've looked.

and a supermodel

@GnomeSlice 10/10 would disappoint

3

@Polynomial Quiet, you.

7:25 PM

user image

check out my new toy!

@Jin hahahahahahahah yeah really

@GnomeSlice Eh, tbf I was about to google anyway.

Raiden the Fruit Ninja

This is the best Vanquish video on Youtube

also my three word review of Vanquish as well

like the uploader

@Jin you should've put him next to some unagi and maki rolls

SUSHIRAIDEN!

7:26 PM

@Polynomial unagi?

Unagi (うなぎ) is the Japanese word for freshwater eels, especially the Japanese eel, Anguilla japonica. Saltwater eels are known as anago in Japanese. Unagi are a common ingredient in Japanese cooking. In Japanese cuisine Unagi is served as part of unadon (sometimes spelled unagidon, especially in menus in Japanese restaurants in Western countries), a donburi dish with sliced eel served on a bed of rice. A kind of sweet biscuit called unagi pie made with powdered unagi also exists. Unagi is high in protein, vitamin A, and calcium. Specialist unagi restaurants are common in Japan, ...

i can't believe how big this Raiden figure is. I thought it was going to be a lot smaller. I'm really impressed by the details

user image

@Polynomial er, there appears to be more than there used to be

@GnomeSlice bookmarked for later.

kekeke

7:27 PM

lol

She is one of my favourite video game girls even though she's incredibly shallow and kind of stereotyped a lot

so smart

also, fyi: peppered mackerel unagi is one of the best things ever.

@GnomeSlice that's the ExtraCredits video where I found out about Vanquish. that entire episode is worth watching.

@Jin I found out about it in OXM, and then when GameSpot gave it the Best Game No One Played award for 2010

you can find one at Game Stop for like $7 now

@Jin No!

7:30 PM

@GnomeSlice I have no idea who that is.

sigh the 3 stared massages from me just read sooo wrong.

@Wipqozn Play Vanquish.

She's the supermodel genius tactical coordinator.

or something

I think one of the best game parodies I've seen has to be this...

user image

@Polynomial Is that the trauma center one?

"Doctor, my sister has cancer." sadface... "ZOMBIE CANCER! HIGH FIVE!"

7:32 PM

Yeah that one is amazing.

PEW PEW PWE PLOWY

@GnomeSlice SHOOT IT WITH YOUR ZAPPY GUN

"Let me assist you, doctor."

:O

THEY'RE SHOOTING XRAY BEAMS OUT OF THEIR RADIOACTIVE SUPERCORES! USE YOUR ZAPPY GUN TO STOP THEM!

ALL IN A DAYS WORK

@Polynomial The O face is amazing

7:33 PM

yeah :P

@OrigamiRobot ._.

Egoraptor is the shit

@GnomeSlice What?

I had a gif of it a while back

@OrigamiRobot Actually I guess it's more like ._.

The face of the guy after he says all in a days work

The guy playing

yeah haha

¬_¬

7:34 PM

Trauma Center is the shit.

the Metal Gear Awesome series is still his crowning achievement.

"Hey snake, there are lasers there..." BLORBLGLORBLRORBL!

I still wonder... if I was as rich as Batman, I would build an armor like Iron man did...

also, you should definitely watch his Girlchan in Paradise series.

massive piss-take of pretty much every anime ever

I'm not big on Anime

it's still hilarious

and you don't have to have seen any specific ones to get it

7:38 PM

user image

dat camera angle

oh wait did I post that

just a bit lower...

They're pretty big on the leg shots of her in the ship

Earth's seasonal heartbeat

@BenBrocka this is really cool

7:41 PM

girlchan is the best part of that

@GnomeSlice yeah, I never really thought of how much of the earth doesn't actually see snow

Me neither.

Well I have, but not recently.

most of the eastern hemisphere :P

indiegamestand.com

apart from the very very east.

bah. no Vanquish on Steam? fail.

7:43 PM

Q: Do crew bonuses stack?

There are some skills in the game that offer bonuses to the whole crew like Fast Learner in the Mastermind tree. If many members in the game use the same crew bonus, does the effect stack for a stronger effect?

0

Q: DLC and multiple profiles on one PS3

I don't play ps3 often, so I have a profile to separate my saves from my husband's but no PSN account. However, I'm quite enamored with Bioshock Infinite and I'm excited for the upcoming DLC "Burial at Sea". If my husband purchases the DLC, will I be able to play it in my profile? Or will we need...

@BenBrocka Also I recommend you try this demo out: desura.com/games/cell-emergence/downloads/cell-hd-demo-v-11

@Polynomial It's not even on PC

oh.

@Polynomial I think it's only PS3 and 360

:[

I can't imagine it would play very well on a PC either.

7:45 PM

:::::[

@RedRiderX You should try that demo too.

I don't really like shooters on consoles.

@Polynomial The controls fit really well.

I only like top-downs and side-scrollers

I just get frustrating

@Polynomial indiegamestand.com

dunno if you're into top down shooty things

but you might like that feature

7:48 PM

@BenBrocka I hate everything about those fucking crabs.

@Wipqozn crabs? The aristocrabs? They're nearly defenseless once you break the claw

@BenBrocka ...you can break the claw?

Yes, use rock pikmin

Oh, well that doesn't help me since I'm fighting this one in water.

after that they shoot bubbles, which trap pikmin for a bit but can't kill them

If it's the one I think, it wanders over to the beach sometimes

7:52 PM

I have to be in Slough by 8am tomorrow

Fuck Slough

fuck Slough indeed

I'm in Aldgate all damn week, stuck in a basement below a basement below a basement.

in a room with no internet access or phone signal

money's good though

@Polynomial The good thing about being in Aldgate is that you can step out your door and walk to anything

@Wipqozn you're in the area with the sand eel thing right?

with the peach in the waterfall

@Wipqozn use your bowgun.

@fredley in this case I get on a packed tube, stand for an hour, arrive at 9.30, go on client site, then leave at 5.30 and get back on a packed tube to go home.

7:56 PM

@Polynomial Sounds like great fun!

I have discovered the London Buses are generally much preferable to the tube

it'd take me 2 hours on the bus

@BenBrocka It's dead.

I'm coming from about as north west as you possibly can in London

Project Phoenix announced, and funded, in less than a single day.

I just used bomb rocks on it, and thena frog finished it off.

7:57 PM

@Polynomial If your client is that far away, why are you staying in Aldgate? Almost anywhere else in the world is cheaper

@Polynomial Oh I see

I live here :P

@Polynomial Move to Islington, can recommend

nah, my actual job is like one tube stop down

@Polynomial I see

but I'm on a client site this week so lots of travelling

7:58 PM

$5000 to have Uematsu compose music for your special NPC.

Ouch.

@Polynomial Well I have to get to Slough at ridiculous a.m. for two days

@fredley :/

Hoping none of the other startups in the competition make it, so that we win

could be worse though.

could be working in St. Annes or The Meadows in Nottingham

@Wipqozn Oh, bomb rocks work. I love bomb rocks now that pikmin don't DROP THEM WHEN YOU CALL THEM

Seriously who the hell thought that was a good idea in Pikmin 1

7:59 PM

I had to work there once. Almost got mugged on the way home twice in one week.
