Morning Discussion

by Alice O'Connor, Mar 19, 2010 5:00am PDT

Here is a selection of stuff I done saw and did liked:

Digital: A Love Story is a brilliant "computer mystery/romance set five minutes into the future of 1988." Centred around BBSs, Digital features love, hacking, phreaking, mystery and a whole lot of splendidness. I'm pushed for time so I can't write more but Amiga Power's Kieron Gillen wrote some nice words over on Rock Paper Shotgun. We have the Windows, Mac and Linux versions mirrored on FileShack.

This child says he is fat and nobody likes him but I do. He is a liar, which I don't like.

I forgot to mention earlier this week that a video replay of Team Liquid's first StarCraft 2 'Liquibition' exhibition match is now online. It is.

Lovely podcast Shift Run Stop continues to close its pincers around Armando Iannucci by infiltrating his circle of colleagues.

I ran out of time. Here's your Morning Discussion. Be happy--it's Friday.

Anyone else playing multi Supreme Commander 2 because I'm really digging it. Played a lot of supcom 1 (~50 hours multi) never was any good but somehow I'm doing much better in 2.

Maybe it's the Steam platform, getting into games is super easy, there are many more people online than back in the day (2500-3000 compared to ~800)

Maybe it's the new economy model, I can understand the hardcore players missing the old economy model and the tiering, I myself miss the tiers (T3 was bad ass) but the simpler economy suits my brain much better.

I also decided not to play any skirmish and only play humans, I think that's working out better than I had hoped.

    The move to Steam was smart, GPG had a lot of features, some of them were good, some of them were shit.
    
    Everything they do in Steam now is super solid.
    
    There is no official replay vault as far as I know, I believe they have plans for that but until then gamereplays.org will have to do
