I don't think you can really consider a game to be dead when its community is still playing it. It's still among the most played games on Steam right now. That being said, I think part of the reason that I, and probably a lot of other people, are still coming back to it is the fact that there hasn't been any games worth talking about like it since it came out. I hated first-person shooters when I picked up TF2; the characters drew me in. The gameplay kept me here for seven years. Hell, I wouldn't have even bothered with PC gaming if it wasn't for TF2. And I still play it regularly. But I'll be honest, it's only because there's nothing else. Lambda and I still play it because it's an easy game to just hop on when we're both tired from work and just goof off. Once someone makes a game that can actually compete with TF2, I don't know how much longer the community will stick around.

I haven't played a lot of the other new maps, but Borneo is full of invisible walls. And for some reason when I'm on the map, my framerate dips below 60, when it never gets even close to that low anywhere else.

I'm glad this happened.

And I can't wait to hear the ultra-conservatives whine about it.

No one is stopping any private citezen from flying confederate flags. Some stores are having knee jerk reactions because they're afraid of people boycotting them.

It's more of the fact that a flag that can easily be seen a symbol of racists saying they'll get what they want eventually is currently flying over a government building and is part of the flag of a state. The shooting just reminded people it's there. It really doesn't help in South Carolina, where the flag was originally flown in 1962 to protest the civil rights movement and only went down for a year in the intervening time. My coworkers and facebook friends have been talking about it a lot. It's a surprisingly huge issue for something so pointless. Every redneck that has it flying off the back of their pickup truck is scared people are going to tell them to stop doing that.

It also strangely caps at only 30 fps, but that sounds like a nitpick.

Dragon Ball Xenoverse

So, I got Dragon Ball Xenoverse, because it looked like fun. But I've never watch Dragon Ball. Even once. During the fight with Raditz, I kept asking "Who the hell is Kakarot?"

Good god, EA is always so boring.

God damn, the Steam port of Sonic Adventure is awful.

I kinda feel like using 75m is cheating, but the Diddy Kong SD made up for it.

Call of Duty games are on sale. Except Black Ops games, but they went on sale when Black Ops III was announced. 25%, but they aren't raising the prices. Rockstar is managing to be more greedy than Activision.

I'm liking Splatoon, but good grief Nintendo. Fixed your netcode, and don't add parties for friends using matchmaking together.

I actually like Tracer's voice. But that dialogue is amazingly cheesy.

I finally have my computer up and running again. Hallelujah

My processor died and took my motherboard with it. The repair guy suggested I switch to an Intel processor instead of AMD. Also said I was lucky I didn't lose the power supply too. Fun.

If I get GTAV, I'd join that group.

Oh, Adventures in Xenoblade or something:

XORD, WHY WON'T YOU DIE?!

I picked up Xenoblade Chronicles 3D today. First time in a while I've gone into a game completely blind.

​Is that what the kids are calling it these days?

The Goddamn Podcast

I know this is probably never going to happen, but I'm hoping Sunset Overdrive is next.

The end of the game actually hinted at a sequel. But only if you knew the developer likes hiding things by darkening the game's images.

God bless CC.

Aren't most horror movies "sit around and wait to be jumpscared" anyway?
