  1. ARGH! I wish I could play # on this laptop without it overheating. I could really use the disctraction right now. Might make waiting for news about my grandmother a bit more tolerable.

    1. @teradyne !glitch is pretty distracting and should run fine on your laptop. Want an invite (it's in beta)?

      1. @toksyuryel (For when you wake up) It's a flash game, hon. Flash makes my system go nuts with heat. It's more the design of the laptop than anything, though. The memory is RIGHT under the touchpad and not vented properly. That's why I can't play Spiral Knights on it.

        1. @teradyne Spiral Knights is actually java, but Glitch is flash. I see. That's too bad ☹ *hug*

          1. @toksyuryel *hugs* I meant the heat problem is why I can play SK, but anyway... I need to find a way to get a monitor, or maybe HOPE that my old moitor can be revived. Then I could use my Mac Mini for at least a little gaming.

            1. @teradyne I thought you couldn't play SK?

              1. @toksyuryel I can't, I should say. >< Still trying to wake up after last night's insanity.

      2. @toksyuryel What is this "Glitch" game like? I've seen some screenshots and it doesn't give me a definite answer, and the connection is too slow to load the gameplay video on YouTube well o,o

        1. @omni It's difficult to adequately describe. Kind of a social game, very little conflict (and what conflict there is is quite unconventional), shades of Minecraft and EVE Online, and a very quirky and dry sense of humor. It's one of those games where you aren't exactly sure why you're playing it but you can't seem to stop anyway. The guy who made Katamari is involved in the development.

          Sunday, 12-Aug-12 17:11:32 UTC from web
          1. @toksyuryel I haven't heard of Katamari, but that sounds quite interesting o,o

            Sunday, 12-Aug-12 17:12:50 UTC from web
            1. @omni If you have a PS2 you should really get Katamari Damacy and play it with your owner. It's a very unique title.

              1. @toksyuryel I don't have any consoles, and my owner only has a Nintendo Wii.

                1. @omni Y'all should get a PS2, there's so many great games on it.

                  1. @toksyuryel @omni <3 PS2 is the best

                  2. @toksyuryel like devil may cry

                    1. @theawesomepony Which Devil May Cry do you consider "great", if I may ask? I was quite disappointed in Devil May Cry 4 because the PC version was just a literal console port. It even told me to use the "left stick" to move around, when I actually had to use WASD. The gameplay was also not adapted at all for keyboard usage and instead optimised for console gameplay. All in all, it was a hell to play, although I liked the atmosphere.

                      1. @omni The very first one was fantastic. The rest weren't so good.

                        Sunday, 12-Aug-12 17:21:36 UTC from web
                      2. @omni Console ports are always terrible.

                        Sunday, 12-Aug-12 17:22:02 UTC from web
                      3. @omni i like 2 so far i just beat 1 and im playing dmc 2 . so i really dont know. im not on 3 or 4 yet.

                      4. @omni The PC version was better, though, since it had enhanced things like the "whole crowds of monsters on screen" mode. DMC was never a game to play with a keyboard. You just have to plug a controller to the PC.

                        Sunday, 12-Aug-12 19:33:15 UTC from web
                        1. @nerthos I'm sorry, but when I buy a game for a PC, I expect it to be well playable with normal PC controls. If I want to use a controller, I may as well buy a console game =/

                          Sunday, 12-Aug-12 19:35:47 UTC from web
                          1. @omni You /can/ play it on PC if you're skilled enough. I made it far on DMC3 before even plugging a controller in. You just need to be good at games. Also one of the pros of playing on PC is that you can use almost any kind of controller, since most of them were adapted by companies or users.

                            Sunday, 12-Aug-12 19:42:17 UTC from web
                      5. @omni Also DMC3 was amazing. The story, the ambientation, characters, everything. The problem with 4 IMO was Nero. He wasn't even half as good a protagonist as Dante is. He was a crybaby, as evidenced by how Dante humilliated him at will in their encounters, and the lack of a proper DMC girl on the game. Nero wouldn't have survived three minutes against Vergil or Mundus. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6DK-0Ig85gI

                        1. @theawesomepony Yeah, I don't like DMC. I played them, never really liked it. I liked the style but it wasn't executed very well...

                          Sunday, 12-Aug-12 19:23:35 UTC from web
                          1. @nixter *gasp* Im shocked. i just got into it. i love it.

                            1. @theawesomepony Well, I respect your opinion and stuff. I'd rather play Darksiders to DMC, y'know?

                              Sunday, 12-Aug-12 19:25:59 UTC from web
                              1. @nixter never played darksiders i know nothing about it.

                                1. @theawesomepony It's fun. There is one part where you shoot sandworms on a dessert while riding your horse. EPIC.

    2. @thatonestocking I misuse it on purpose, because I'm english and saying "Y'all" in my accent sounds hilarious.

    3. @thatonestocking I was referring to a group of people- @omni and his owner.
