$30, about £20 in real money.

It felt about right.

$20 to the devs, $5 to each charity

Well that is interesting... I liked WC3 (I actually completed the campaign, something I never bother with in RTSes), and with this new, I'll probably buy SC2

You can fill them up with air, but that won't get you anywhere, as the vacuum of space means that standard blimp propulsion will be ineffective.

Both- as much as I love my boxes, online is just so damned convenient.

I have some information that might be of use to you, stalker!

Somehow, despite spending all my free time on my PC, I spend very little of it playing games. Where does all the time go?

yeah, I'm having the same problem.

Since we know the new mechwarrior game will be a crappy port to the PC, our hopes rest with you guys. And those hopes are looking pretty damn safe. Awesome.

yeah, I wasn't sure what the right thing was, so half way though putting the boxes in place I just started smashing them to see what happens.

That was the greatest boss battle I have ever seen. I am in awe.

that's it, I'm buying oblivion just for this.

Looks a lot like mount and blade here.
Of course, mount and blade + actual story would be awesome.

Hahaha, I doubt it. Wish it was though. It would be the best thing EVAR.

Actually, I think it looks a lot like the old TD stealth tank

everyone knows that the size of a man's shoulder pads is equal to his prowess in battle.

Hmm, interesting idea but poor execution.

Pros: Woo! Xen!

Cons: Wait, why are there Combine grunts?
Enemy spamming
repetitive gameplay

STFU April first. This should be real. Everyone likes bananas. EVERYONE.

yes, it is rather short. I would love for it to be longer

Having played this mod though a few times, I still don't understand it all. And that's great. It's different. Something new and fantastic to distract from the dank sea of samey commercial shooters.

Having played though any other game or mod several times, epic moments lose impact. But Dear Esther still send shivers down my spine.

Any other game (and to a lesser extent, mod, as I expect them to be shorter) that I completed in one play session would be considered pretty poorly, but Dear Ester feels right at the length it is now. Of course, this doesn't include the necessary second, third and perhaps fourth play though you'll need to start to understand the mod.

The narration is fantastic, the environment haunting and the soundtrack adds a little nudge (well, perhaps "massive shove", but such a heavy action in relation to a subtle and well played mod feels wrong) towards a more atmospheric experience. Fantastic work, a must play mod for any fan of intelligent, thought-provoking experiences.

I declare a want level of MUCH.

MUCH WANT.

briefing: hiss eep growl!
objective: growl!

:P headcrab fun

"Me want behemoth club... so big... so much smash"

what's the song on this video? stuck in my head.

meh, the occasional failed foray into modding is all I manage, unless my next Morrowind mod works out OK.

morrowind mods tent to be small when the plugin system is used, there probably aren't any (or many, at least) new resources or graphics in the download

yes, I like it a lot more than the previous version you had.

you, on the other hand do not.
"-Graphics Admin
Firestorm Softworks ", yet your text is littered with chatspeak and other such crimes against grammar. Honestly, if I let someone with language skills like that be an admin, I'd resign whatever position I held that granted me the power to assign such tasks and ranks on people.

Anyway, Beautiful work guys. Can't wait to play it.

the book there is one I've seen before, but if you can understand it, you can understand just about anything. Confusing book, I have to say (although I did read it several years ago and can't remember any of it)

I just spend all day downloading and it's corrupt! not happy!

I would have voted for Westwood, but since they're A) dead :( and B) it would look like a vote for EA, I went for valve. At least they seem to care
