Sweet mod for TF2 replaces the Scout's bat with Obi-Wan's lightsaber. Awesome.

flotsam and nonobvious

I don't like to spam communities where I'm a member, but I just wanted to mention that I have a couple other websites that you might be interested in:

flotsam is my linkdump site, where I post things that amuse or horrify me.

nonobvious is my comic site. I make the comic using the comic generator at bitstrips.com, and it is semi-autobiographical.

Check 'em out, if you have the opportunity. You might find something you like.

That's all.

That's It?

That was pretty much my reaction when I finished CoD: World at War. The message box popped up telling me I'd unlocked the achievement "War Hero", and I thought "That can't be right. That's the achievement for completing the game."

And it was.

I've been disappointed by CoD:WaW. The solo campaign failed to inspire any excitement, I didn't care about any of the characters, didn't much care about any of the missions. In contrast, playing CoD4 was like starring in a motion picture. I loved the storyline, and was genuinely taken aback at the death of any of the main characters. Hell, I started a new game the day I finished the first one. That was Game of the Year material.

I didn't expact WaW to be as good as CoD 4, but I surely didn't expect it to be this weak.

Moving On

I finally reached the point where I'm tired of Fallout 3. I can't begin to count how many hours it's taken, but I'm there. I finished the game (again) last night, pulled the disc out of the drive, and put it back into the stack with the rest of the games.

I was lucky enough to play some Team Fortress 2 with some of the guys from 2old4BS the other night, and had a great time. It's the first chance I've had to try it out. The gameplay is like a Special Ed version of COD: Fewer buttons to worry about, simpler objectives, and just not as intense. It's COD on valium -- just my speed. I stuck with the Pyro and the Heavy, and did all right.

Now I can crack open my shiny new copy of COD5:World at War.....

F3Anon

Hi there, my name is PAgent, and I'm addicted to Fallout 3.

I've played as a hero, and am now playing a character that is pure evil.

I've hit 41/50 achievements, and should get at least one more by the time I finish this game up.

I ceased to have any kind of a life several weeks ago.

Lo, I have become the Vaultdweller.

Play Doom I in your browser

Man does this bring back memories. I played HOURS of Doom on my 386DX. It's one of the only games that actually ran correctly on that P.O.S. I used a joystick and keyboard and could fly through that game. In fact, if my wife was watching over my shoulder, she'd get motion sick.

Now, you can play Doom in Flash. And it looks just like the original. Amazing.

Left 4 Bed

This is an mp3 created from soundbites from Left 4 Dead. And the funniest thing I've heard in a long time.

Make sure you have the audio turned down and/or headphones on if you're at work.

Holy Crap. This may just be the opening cinematic, but talk about intense!

Robokill

(Copied from my main blog)

This Friday I give you an absolutely kick-ass web-based arcade game. It looks good, it sounds good, and it has play value that stands head and shoulders over most flash games.

The funny part? This is only the demo!

Robokill harkens back to the old-skool top-down arcade shooters of my youth, and does it WELL.

Try Robokill.

Viking

Have you ever bought a game KNOWING it was a bad game?

I just picked up "Viking: Battle of Asgard" for the 360. I had played the demo on XBox Live, so I knew it was basically a hackfest/fetch the item type game. Of course, finding it on sale new for $19.99 pretty much told me everything I wanted to know about how good it was going to be.

When I looked it up on Gamespot, they gave it 5.0 out of 10. Ouch. Well, I'm going into it with my eyes open.

At the other end of the spectrum, I've been looking for a cheap used copy of Halo 3. I already played through it with some friends of mine right after it came out, but I'd like to have my own copy to play with my son. The problem is, I can't find a used copy for less than $49.99. WTF? The NEW copies are barely more than that, at $59.99.

I mean, sure, it's the conclusion to an epic, Master Chief, massive hype, yadda-yadda. But it's still a year old, and most gamers have moved on by now. Sheesh.
