    Glowing trees?

    Hang on - I realised this was just a quick brainstorm but are you implying that the trees actually make gold? That's kind of impossible unless the trees become working particle accelerators or manage to accumulate the nigh non-existant traces of gold in our atmosphere. If anything, the price...

    You fav/worst/most disappointing games of 2010

    Good: Mass Effect 2 Starcraft 2 New Vegas Bad: Bioshock 2 RDR Super Mario Galaxy 2 I realise there's a strange correlation between my pick of good games on the PC and bad games on consoles, but I just couldn't get in to those 3 games this year and enjoy them. Maybe when I've got time I'll...

    Credible evidence that we can see into the future to be published soon?

    That's what I hate about the human mind, it gets trapped on meaningless details and memorising songs when all that space could be used to study for the astrophysics exam I have in 10 hours time. If the mind is so great, why isn't my brain automatically optimising, my memory eidetic so I can fit...

    Credible evidence that we can see into the future to be published soon?

    A bit difficult for a brain to have the computing power or information necessary to predict the outcome from a pseudo-random number generator. However I think that this study most likely just hit a conveniently high spot on a bell curve and ran with it, I'm sure there have been plenty of prior...

    Possible episode3 reveal?

    It's almost certain Valve won't say a thing about Episode 3 until Portal 2 comes out. Probably some other game with a cargo ship. Don't know anything about tomb raider myself but that sounds a likely candidate.

    Interview with Erik Johnson - Portal 2 & SP Experiences

    I imagine there is some print material in addition to this online interview that contains new quotes from the script. This interview has the remarkable property of being very interesting while telling us absolutely nothing new about the game.

    If it did I didn't use it.

    TF2 Community Contributors Get Paid Very Well!

    That is an insane amount of people buying the gear. Hundreds of thousands of dollars are being spent on virtual hats. That's just... insane, there are no better words to describe it.

    Fallout: New Vegas just became a whole lot more awesome

    I think it's our Friday, though you could mean their Thursday. I hate Australia. Your entrails be blasted away by super mutants, you lucky bastards!

    Fallout: New Vegas just became a whole lot more awesome

    And now at 3:30 am, the time has been pushed back to 3 days and 8 hours. FUUUUUUUUUUU

    Fallout: New Vegas just became a whole lot more awesome

    I'm surprised AP was received so poorly given the opinions in this thread. I will have to try it myself when I find the spare time. Meanwhile, 5 hours for NV steam release. I've set my alarm for 3:30 local time, screw the consequences.

    Valve Announces DOTA 2

    This game's probably going to be great one way or another, that's just the nature of Valve. My problem is: Valve as a company has a huge freaking problem with creativity. They latch on to good ideas made by other people and pump out sequels covered in Valve Polish™, and haven't made a truly...

    So I've been playing World of Warcraft

    My brother has been playing WoW for years, I've always enjoyed looking over his shoulder on occasion. With university finishing soon and Cataclysm being released shortly after I'm almost certainly going to be joining.

    Steam and MS Rivalry is 'hurting PC industry', according to Gearbox Marketing boss.

    Pretty much this. For an attack that's pretty clearly pointed squarely at Valve they fail to see how poorly MS has been doing to provide a decent service to the PC. Also, way to bite the hand that feeds you. Fortunately Valve is so large at this point it's more like a toothless kitten trying...

    Songs that make you feel happy...

    The lyrics sound a little bit sad, but when the music properly kicks in it feels so good. If you play Chime, you'll play the second level over and over again for this song. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1M9QIt4FtJE And then there's always this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I_izvAbhExY

    Nintendo 3DS - Date, Price

    Well, the trick is to buy games while they are on special, they can typically go down to that $70-$90 region at launch if you know where and when to shop. It's also worth pointing out our dollar has only just recently jumped up to near parity, before it was hovering around the 88c mark. There...

    Nintendo 3DS - Date, Price

    I'm willing to pay that price if the 1AUD = 1USD rate stays where it is, and our video game stores don't ramp up the price to the old 1AUD = 0.50USD rate they have been deluding themselves on for the last 6 years or so. Seriously, they charge around $110 for new release triple-A Xbox 360 and...
