    Further proving how poorly designed the content ID copyright system YouTube implemented.

    TIAM: General Gaming edition

    I think at the time, people were tired of playing as a Jedi and were excited to actually lead a squad of clone soldiers during the Clone Wars era. Also, by the looks of it, it seems rather challenging. Every enemy could be a real threat, even just one Super Battle Droid was tough to take down. It gave you a sense that you were a just one of millions of other lowly foot soldiers fighting a galactic war, in stark contrast to the unstoppable killing machines that the Jedi are always portrayed as. I also think that the command system (for its time) was very immersive and intriging, and the visuals were stunning. Obviously, compared to today's standards it hasn't really aged well. But, it's only $10 so I might go ahead and pick it up.

    Ah man, that would be so fun. But sadly, I only have the console version.

    Exactly, when you run out of ammo, just resupply yourself, then blow up more shit/loot the dead. I still wonder how the droids can use the healthkits. "No reward is worth this." -Han Solo

      Doesn't that happen every year? We get fires most years too.

      Nine distinct fires in a single city at the same time is pretty alarming, regular or not

    Game Deals Announcement Thread

    Arma 3 is on a free weekend, while ArmA: Cold War Assault is free now till Monday. Read a couple reviews, seems pretty cool. So I thought why not, it's free. Only 605 MB download, so it won't take up much on my hard drive which is nice. Plus since it's not technically F2P, it's stuck on my account, so if I want to install it on another computer, I don't have to go to the store page, enter my age, and all that crap. I just have to click install and it'll install, which is a nice little bonus.

    Apparently arCtyC, Edge of Reality's community manager, is leaving the team to go work at Epic Games. Iz sad day. Though he was a huge Gears of War fan before he joined EOR, so I guess he got his dream job. In which case, I'm happy for him and wish him the best of luck. I guess now Walter , the guy in charge of weapon balance, will be taking over the weekly steams now. (Or at least until they can find a new community manager) Here's the stream: https://www.loadout.com/forums/index.php?threads/dev-stream-the-end-of-an-arctyc-era-5-14-2014.9030/

    Try playing this game without dying once. http://www.addictinggames.com/action-games/zassin-game.jsp It really messes with your reaction movements.

    The first phase of Kirby 3D's final boss is epic. Not typically something I'd expect from a Kirby game. [spoiler2]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WSPyka_fcu4[/spoiler2] Though the second phase is also cool, phase 1 is just much more awesome.

    I'd actually like to play on these, but being in the UK is suffering. Star's server is very playable from Yurop Be prepared for his asshurt over engineers though: Gunslinger and Pomson are banned, and on 5CP Engy is banned altogether Kind of like Shibby is with Spies. If he gets backstabbed once "HOW DARE YOU!" b& Poor Engie players.

    Welp, had my first run in with a phishing link attempt. He was Russian, as usual. He must have saw my trade on Outpost and added me, then before I even had the chance to say hi, he sent me a message. "Hi. My friend want to trade with you. Add him." Then he put a link to a phishing site. I knew this guy was phishy (budum-tsss) when he told me his friend wanted to trade me. So I asked him if his friend wanted to trade, why didn't he just add me directly? Then I said "steancomomunity........really? you think that I'm that stupid? Nice try dipshit." then I reported him. I got no response obviously, and instead I wake up this morning to find that the little son of a bitch tries it again, twice. So at this point I know there's no point in trying to talk to this guy because he's just going to spam me with vain phishing attempts so I say "Again? You really think I'm that stupid? You know what, fuck you and your phishing links." Then I blocked him, and again reported him, twice, one for each link. Here's the chat log for those interested: Warning: Contains bogus links. Do not try to link them. PizDAaaa: Hi. My friend want to trade with you.Add him. steancomomunity.com/id/GTRRacer001 John Caveson: if he wants to trade me, why soesn't he add me then John Caveson: ? John Caveson: also "steancomomunity"? John Caveson: nice try dipshit John Caveson: reported PizDAaaa: Hi. My friend want to trade with you.Add him. steancomomunity.com/id/xclickzm PizDAaaa: Hi. My friend want to trade with you.Add him. steancomomunity.com/id/thewiggin John Caveson: What again? You really think that I'm that stupid to fall for it after you failed to trick me already? John Caveson: You know what, fuck you and your phishing links, blocked, reported x2 (one for each link) and I hope you get banned. I checked his profile and I've come up with this: He's from Moscow, of course. He only has Dota 2, L4D2, and AirMech Only Dota 2 has almost 1k hours played, the other 2 don't even go past an hour. He's been a Steam member since January 10th, 2013 He is a member of the Dota2Lounge Steam Group, and nothing else His inventory contains only Dota 2 items and a random L4D2 trading card He has 54 "friends" My conclusion is this, he is a massive Dota 2 fan/trader, duh. He probably started scamming at around half a year after his Steam account was created (wouldn't be surprised if he's done this since the beginning of his account). Some of his "friends" are trading bots, and I bet most of his other "friends" are probably fellow scammers, or even accounts he's hijacked. He probably got all of those Dota 2 items through scamming or outright just being a shitty trader. Now I have him reported, let's just hope he gets banned or something. Which brings me to this question. Why are Russians all stereotyped as scammers/hackers/phishers/etc.? You what know I'm talking about, the "high pitched, aggressive Russian kid who doesn't know a word of English spamming you with trade requests trying to scam you out of your expensive hat, and rages at you whenever you turn him down." That stereotype. Where did it come from?

    Man that sucks. I remember when they took down the XBox servers when Microsoft closed down the original XBox Live. Though I never played online so it didn't really affect me. Nonetheless, it's always sad to see great games die like this. Let's just try to hope that EA won't screw up with Battlefront 3

    Fuck, servers are offline, I guess they'll come online tomorrow. At least I got to familiarize myself with the menus......
