Nah, thats just a form of satire, and sounds way better when your hear it rather then read it.

British people are way better at it then we are though.

in Valve with XBox 360 Post #177820
I think it would be interesting if valve actually built a game around the console, rather then simply porting a game from the PC. HL2 sucked on Xbox because Xbox just wasn't built to run it, they're probably wouldn't even be as many painstakingly long load times if they hadn't used the source engine.

No, that's totaly wrong, because people are generally stupid (I say ALL people here, not just americans)
Yeah, that reminds me of a bunch of quotes i found on stupidity...

"The American people are very generous people and will forgive almost any weakness, with the possible exception of stupidity." --Will Rogers

"Out! Out! You demons of stupidity!" --Dogbert

"Never give advice--a wise man won't need it, a fool won't heed it."--Unknown

"Being stupid is its own reward." --Unknown

"Aristotle taught that the brain exists merely to cool the blood and is not involved in the process of thinking. This is true only of certain persons." ~ Will Cuppy

"Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former." -Albert Einstein.

"Against stupidity the gods themselves contend in vain." - Friedrich von Schiller

And thats just a sample.

Simple, he was running agaonst cheney, and the majority of americans are conservative. In their eyes, Bush was the best bet for the consevative party.
They don't seem quite so sure anymore anyway, have you seen Bushes approval ratings?

I hate it when people generalize. I knew the answer to all of those questions, and guess what? I'm a tipical 13 year old american. The people that were interveiwed can't reprisent the entire population of a country. Maybie the population of that city, but the educational standards change depending on state. All of the people I know could answer those questions.
Even Dr. Breen is more sane than Bush.
How ever hard that made me laugh, at least Bush isn't keeping us from reproducing. I do hate him though.

Yeah, I didn't really expect the idea you've had to resemble Knox's movies. But I think theres some info on that site as to what equipment he uses. Stop motion is still stop motion, even two things as diffrent as Dr. bob saves the day and the nighmare before christmas.

As for making backrounds, thats just a matter of craftsmenship. Have you had any experience with model making? What materials you use depends on what your trying to make, heck even computer graphics could replace an actual enviornment if you knoew what you were doing. Hehe, I just imagined clay people shooting eachother in a level from Half-Life 2 :nuts:.

Stop-motion animation is incredibly time consuming. It took Aardman Studios over 3 years to create the Wallace and Gromit film. They basically shoot a second of film a day (24 frames per second is the standard for film). So 24 individual cuts for each second of footage. Amazing, isn't it?
yeah, it can take a long time. But Wallace and Gromit had some amazingly complex scenes in it. If you do something smaller, like with only a few characters on screen at once, you go at around a minute of footage for every one to three hours.

Hm, i'm pretty sure that if you looked in online software stores, or something like that, you could find a decent program for making stop motion animations. It might also be interesting to visit [link]http://www.knoxskorner.com/home.php[/link], the guy there is Robert Benfer. Its amazing how far he has come seince 03.

nether do I actually, the term noob is to loosely defined. I don't think Habboi is a noob, even if I i'm not really sure what exactly the term "noob" means. Although i have been called a noob before in less freindly communities, for commiting seemingly simple mistakes.

in Condemned Criminal Origins Post #172503
Well, Habboi might sound like a forum noob even if he is a brilliant mapper.

I've read reveiws for Condemned and it sounds like a decent game. I'm pretty sure theres no multiplayer though.
It had a few faults, like poor character models, compared to the enviorments anyway wich are supposed to be really pretty in how ugly and dilapidated they are. Plus its supposed to pretty freaky and intense so i wouldn't recommend picking it up if you don't enjoy horror games. It might be worth a rent rather then a buy if you own an Xbox360, as it has very little replay value.

EDIT:I just checked on gamepot and the PC version is due out on the 11th of this month. I think thats just the american release date, and i'm not sure if you all live in America.

ONE LAST STATEMENT.
Consoles may not be hardcore gaming for you m0p, but if "hardcore gaming is all about sitting in a dark room for days on end" then there are thousands of people out there who will disagree with you. The total hours that people have spent on Xbox live add up to over five thousand years. if your just going to sit there and spout single sentences affirming you illogical and idiotic beliefs, then I?m leaving this thread. For a second, I thought I might actually have a well rounded and intelligent argument, but I was wrong.

PS3 is due for a WORLDWIDE launch this November - and is expected to WHOOP that pants of the XBOX 360

and Crash Bandicoot!
Oh god, that franchise killed itself long ago (Sorry, just had to say that).
Console gaming is fun, but not hardcore gaming. Hardcore gaming is all about siting in a dark room for days on end. Console gaming is more of a joke than a serious gaming platform.
This is the single comment that really annoyed me. Console gaming a joke huh? Go play shadow of the collosus, or ico, or xenosaga, or ninja gaiden, or Psychonauts, or oddworld: strangers wrath, or kingdom harts, or indigo prophecy, or Dead or Alive 4. If you play any of those games and then come back here telling me that consoles are a joke i will punch your face in :furious: :furious: :furious: .

its not power that defines a game, it is innovation and enjoyability that make them outstanding.
