Evening Reading

Ninety-Nine Nights II came out today. This is all the information you need about the game. Meme!

Hulu Plus is definitely not for me at this time. Perhaps when the PS3 or Xbox 360 support rolls out, I'll take a look, but I already pay for satellite television and watch a lot of content not offered by Hulu. The catalog of old content is impressive, but I can just Netflix the DVDs, which I already pay for. For those that don't have cable, however, $10 a month is pretty good for the content offered.

      More serous thread: ARMA II Still going strong on the shack & internet? I'm thinking of picking it up since it is on sale @ steam.

        I was wondering this too. The demo at the time seemed interesting, although extremely buggy. My PC at the time couldn't run it very well, but now that I have a new PC and after all the patches this game has had, I'm thinking of picking it up.

        I was just about to ask this, we use ARMA II's engine at work for a serious game project, I am sort of wondering what the actual game is like.

        from what I've read everyone is moving to the expansion that just released today for multiplayer

          hah, really? so I would have to spend $20 + the expansion at $40?

          damn :(

              Ugh, still too expensive for such a shady support. The game looks awesome, but the demo really turned me off some time ago and I never got a definitive information about the game getting better after some patches.

                Everyone says the game's performance has improved massively from release. In fact it just got a new patch this week. In general BIS is good with post-release support, though their games are pretty buggy on release.

                I'm still cautious about buying it as much as I love OFP and ArmA1. I want to be sure I can run it well and the apparently poorly optimized demo runs horribly. I'm hoping a demo for the expansion gets released.

              you don't really need to buy original Arma II from what I understand - the update is a standalone expansion. I don't know whether it includes all the original content though someone seemed to allude as much.
