Morning Discussion
by Alice O'Connor, May 07, 2009 7:00am PDT3D Realms. Wow. Practically every other game I played when I first got into video games was a 3D Realms title, so they're an intrinsic part of PC gaming as I know it. Surreal.
In sunnier news, I'm excited about the upcoming StarCraft 2 beta. Nick badgered me into playing StarCraft recently and it seems we've finally found a game he's better at than me. Hopefully SC2's changes throw him off enough for me to win at least one round.

Protip: type the word 'future' when you're playing the game. Try it and see what happens to the zombies.
The game is seriously addicting. Right now I'm really enjoying the endless survival level. It's waves and waves of the undead that get progressive crazier and crazier. They threw in a buffed version of the gargantuan zombie for and he fucked up my last run.
A building has been added, and when I entered and then exited this building, my 360 hard locked. Repeatedly. Someone on the Fallout Wiki mentions that it happens trying to access the roof of this building, too.
It's Hank's Electrical Supply, and it's near Jury Street Metro Station. Just so you know to save before messing with it.
Secret Agent Clank is coming out towards the end of the month for the budget price of $20!

Not the best entry in the R&C series by a longshot (ok, it's the worst), but it'll be nice to be able to play using a normal controller instead of on the PSP. Now the entire series will be playable on 20/60GB PS3s :D
So, I've been in LA for the last two months, and no one will hire me(was in Las Vegas for 4 months before that, and no love there either). You guys are always talking about how cool Texas is. How is the job market there, and how would I go about landing a job, move there first with what I have on my back and look, or apply and wait till someone will hire me?

Why is everyone pooh-poohing DJ Hero? Do you not realize you wouldn't even have your plastic guitar games without DJ/dance-music driven games creating the genre? That the genre itself was built on games like Pop N Music and beatmania? That Harmonix was built on Frequency and Amplitude?
DJ Hero can and should be to beatmania what Guitar Hero was to Guitar Freaks.

I'm coming to town next weekend (May 15-17) to watch the AVP volleyball tournament with some friends. Unfortunately, they already got a hotel room together and can only offer me a floor to sleep on if I go with them. Can any of you put me up on your couch that Friday and Saturday night? I'm clean and polite, and I chew with my mouth closed. I'll have my own car, too, so it's just a matter of passing out in your living room and then washing myself in the morning.
Girls, I'm cute too. And single.

Also Star Trek was the most awesome thing I've seen in ages. I absolutely loved every second of it.

TAKE CARE OF YOUR FUCKING TEETH
I went about 7 years drinking nothing but coke, and never taking care of my teeth/no dentist visits. It's taken me almost two fucking years of weekly/monthly dentist visits to finally get to where I am today :
15 cavities filled, 4 of those medicated fillings, and one molar filled today to the point where it's considered 'rebuilt'. I finally have (what I hope to be) the last dentist appointment scheduled for June. I've spend thousands of dollars correcting the abuse that I put my mouth through, but now I can honestly say that I don't have days/weeks on end of constant pain in my mouth. My gums don't bleed when I floss, and I can actually bite down on things without worrying about cracking a tooth.
So yeah, go to the dentist. That money you'll spend on the checkups/maintenance even without insurance is nothing in comparison to the thousands that you'll spend fixing your neglected mouth.

TWEOTW is a Katamari Damacy clone that has a lot of the same faults and strengths of it, such as being short, not that difficult and a bit shallow in the end, but it's also incredibly fun, filled with wildly varied levels and some addictive as hell gameplay.
Try out the demo! The first level isn't much, but the second gives you a much better idea of what to expect from the full game. $10 is the perfect price for it (though I don't regret spending $20 when I did). Lots of fun!

I wiped my system, but kept my Steam folder. Running Steam.exe crashes (creating a dump file). Is there something I need to do to get it to run again, or do I need to reinstall? If I reinstall in the same location, will it wipe my saves?

Finally! I just picked up Pandemic 2 again, and I was able to beat it! I started it when I got to work at 4:15, and just barely now beat it. I forgot about it for like 2 hours, and let it go, then piled on the shit.
The result?
