Oh yeah I guess the skinless creatures could justify the game being rated 15. I never thought the violence was bad at all but I guess whoever chose the ratings for the first few games did. Maybe they were more strict in 1996 because Anniversary only got a 12 rating.

Or even better, both games for just £3 altogether. I decided to order one on Tuesday and once I get it, it'll be time to replay the games. :) Sure, I might have trouble installing them but I should be fine with the patches and such.

Sounds good. Currently I've only got TR2 installed on my PC and it has some problems with the cutscenes and stuff. Also it doesn't like the fact that I use my TV as a monitor and it messes with the resolution. I've also heard that TR1 runs in DOS which may cause problems if it's true but I guess we'll both find out.

Now that sounds awesome. I'd love to see a level like that being made. Who knows, maybe there's already a level similar to that out there but it'd be great if you made a level yourself. :) I didn't want to do much with my level and all it would have been was facing Torso Beast, dragon and mutant spider at once. Due to WAD issues and such, it was really complicated to do. x_x My other option would be to face more than one Torso Beast at once.

I've had the idea for that level for years and years now. One day I'll get round to it. I think it came from the Barkhang Monastery level in TR2 where you have to solve loads of puzzles in different areas before returning to a central hub with the spoils. Your level sounds complicated (not to mention hard as hell to beat); I can see why you could have trouble programming it, especially if each enemy needs specific landscape features to beat it. If you ever make it let me know so I can play it and get my arse handed to me.

Yeah, challenges are good but I don't put the full effort into getting every single one. If I'm desperate to get some eventually, I'll try and get them some other time. The best examples are Team Fortress 2 achievements where there's a lot to get but I'm not that desperate to get every single one. The only ones I want right now are those that'll unlock additional weapons for me.

I like to work hard at something and feel the sweet success, even if the reward is a number that means very little to begin with. It's a great bonus when you actually get something out of it.

Exactly! :D All three consoles have their strengths and weaknesses and there really is no superior console. It all depends on which console has the best games for you.

I think this reasoning applies to virtually everything. It's practically impossible to unanimously decide what is "the best" of anything. What's important is what is the most suited to your needs and desires. The family with 5 kids might decide that a 4X4 is the best car because they need all the seats, whereas the guy who's going through his midlife crisis might think that a sports car is best because he wants a penis extension. Both parties think they've got the best car and are happy with their decisions. Do they bother arguing with each other about who made the better decision? Of course not, what the hell would be the point? The same goes for consoles. Fanboys are just ignorant.

Due to clock day:

You passed 8000 Saves. Way to go!

Gentlemen...

A-ha-ha! You are as PRESUMPTIOUS as you are POOR and IRISH . Tarnish notte the majesty of my TOWER of HATS .

Also, I have retired this account on 19360 exp so that it may stay on the glorious level 42 (by far the greatest and most 1337 NG level icon there has ever been... since at least before the redesign hit).

:::spams level 1 through 42 achievements all at once in first post, TF2 achievement unlock sounds crash server:::

As for Blind Guardian, I assume they are one of those metal bands? I really don´t know much about metal bands as I´m not really into that music genre. With me it goes as far as some Metallica and Iron Maiden but that´s about it.

Right I don't know much about them but they are better than Metallica. I went into progressive metal because classic rock and other music the common white likes was getting stale.

Same for me with 62,000 B/P not that congratsworthy

As for the 33,000 saves, due to the slighty dissapointing amount of submitted flash today I´m ending up somewhere far below that number. I have only gained just over 400 saves this year and I´m currently still far below 32,900 even.

and with 35,000 with me. Damn Clock Day hasn't been this bad since um I can't remember 6 years back.

Anyway I´m gonna go to bed now, will make congrats list etc. tomorrow.

I was up 25 hours if it was like the previous 3 years I would be sporting 1,500 but damn the glory days of CD are past us. Maybe the masses will make Pico Day that tradition.

Sure I won't be able to keep this lead but I won't be trailed by you I am going to be really gay and on your ass to CD10 and beyond.

Yes what will happen is IRL. Lots of stuff you will get bore of statwhoring before me, I won''t I am immune to boredom so I can keep on going. I won't have a good b/p pace but I last longer than you, simply put.

*doffs cap*

You uppish bastard. I will get it back even if I have to pass X-naut 2.0.

We're both going to be very close to him this afternoon, I feel.

Precisely, expect I passed him first and got more saves on Clock Day like I said. Me 2 you 0 oh and theres another milestone too.

Not too long ago I thought you were 23 and thought that iscrulz was 27. I guess I´m just very bad at guessing peoples ages around here =/

I am going to be 27, the lone wander is 19 so believe what you see in the profiles or not.

Wow, Clock Day the greatest worst day evar.

I'm ranked 1,111 in exp as of today.

What does the scouter say about his B/P level?
IT'S OVER NINE THOUSAAAAAAAND

9000 Blam/Protection points

*looks at my own profile*
Oh, awesome. Three rank ups yesterday, I didn't even notice until now:
3000 Saves
Top 1000 B/P
6.66 Base VP

At least one of them is probably congratulation-worthy.

8,000 total B/P and Master Sergeant. Too bad it's now 1,500 B/P to the next rank for the first time... :(

Just got 1000 saves.

08/16/09 08:05 PM

18,000 Exp. Points

sonofabitch

At some point during Clock Day I achieved the rank of Pvt. First Class (3000B/P). Also apparently my B/P rank is exactly 2000.

By the way if anybody wants a few whistle points the current Turd of the Week entry has a whole load of reviews that are just begging to be flagged.

Wow. I totally forgot there were levels...

Yeah, the gaming industry was probably more strict back then and the age rating was right for its time. However, 11/12 rating would have been more appropriate for the other two games but ah well. I'm more than old enough to play them so no biggie.

Or even better, both games for just £3 altogether. I decided to order one on Tuesday and once I get it, it'll be time to replay the games. :) Sure, I might have trouble installing them but I should be fine with the patches and such.

Sounds good. Currently I've only got TR2 installed on my PC and it has some problems with the cutscenes and stuff. Also it doesn't like the fact that I use my TV as a monitor and it messes with the resolution. I've also heard that TR1 runs in DOS which may cause problems if it's true but I guess we'll both find out.

Yeah, it's retail copies so there's bound to be problems. However, I'll see what the Tombraiders site has to help me out and hopefully I'll be good to go with playing those two games. I think I'll be fine considering Tomb Raider 3 worked with ease when I played it last month. Well, that was only in Lara's Home but still.

Your level sounds complicated (not to mention hard as hell to beat); I can see why you could have trouble programming it, especially if each enemy needs specific landscape features to beat it. If you ever make it let me know so I can play it and get my arse handed to me.

I don't think it'll be complicated to make for a level design since the most I'll probably have is 2 or 3 Torso Beasts in one room and that'll be it. Still, it's worth a shot and if I manage to get this level built, I'll be sure to let you know. :)
