Prove my innocence? What do I do, turn vegetarian?

I'm so indie, my resolution is 320x240. 

Okay, actually 1280x1024 at 60Hz.

And Lucaz, how will you avoid letting the werewolf inside town?

NOTE: Spinoffs are not always a good idea.

SHUT YOUR ***** MOUTH!

NINJA MISSIONS FOREVER!

You really think so? If you don't vote, you're basically allowing the last werewolf to get another kill. In fact, not voting would be likely to doom the people left at the beach at the end of the day.

If we vote, only one person will be left at the beach, and he will be killed by a Deep One.

If we don't vote, there'll be one survivor.

[There was no explosion. There is no Siberia. Polybius is in the city of El Dorado. Continent your search there.]

The truth is clear: Polybius is in Europe.
For years now Polybius has grown more powerful by influencing Swedish developers. Now Polybius has created the LHC and will use it to return to our world.

Incorrect. The Great Polybius rests within Siberia. You should go look for it.

Wow, that maroon probably totally believed me. They must not know of the black hole generator!


Also, I remember this being a thread about Airship 2600 at some point. It's partly my fault, since I was the first one to make the Christ-Anti Christ analogy with Airship 2600 and Polybius. I consider Polybius to be some sort of Godwin's law of indie gaming: any conversation on indie gaming that goes on long enough will meander over to Polybius at some point. It's just too fascinating a subject to avoid.

I take it that's what caused that explosion years ago in Siberia?

Did you actually ever think something else caused hat?

There was no explosion. There is no Siberia. Polybius is in the city of El Dorado. Continent your search there.

OH GOD! LET ME IN! LETMEINLETMEINLETMEIN!

Uh, eh, I mean, yes, we, on the beach, should abstain from voting.

Guys, let me in? Please?

I play FoF because I'm indie.

I'm indier than all of you. Also consoles are expensive.

Just to point out, the reactions that happen in the LHC happen hundreds of times a day in our upper atmosphere.

But then why don't they just study the atmosphere instead of...

Oh God.

Guys, I think the LHC was actually created to destroy the earth, not for any scientific investigations.

I'm scared.

The good thing about believing that the game will suck is that you lose nothing if it does, and win considerably more if it doesn't.

Hmm. I think your laptop exceeds the maximum awesome that can be handled by these games.

My thing lies more in composing a Cover or an Ad, or coloring stuff, or eve makign trailers for it.

I see. Have you drawn robots?

Hmm. Perhaps ShinyGerbil has been afflicted with some sort of disease which removes all the consonants from his speech. Peculiar.

Perhaps he should try writing things down.

See, I'm helping! Please let me in!

Stay informed, gentlemen.

[everything is fine.]

everything is fine.

Yeah, but... I mean, I have seen complaints about DRM on Amazon before, but not to the extent where the "1 star because of DRM" reviews completely swamp everything else, at a ratio 9:1.

I think that's because of how much this game was hyped though.

That said, I totally appreciate consumers finally putting a foot down against these ridiculous DRM schemes.

¡VIVA LA REVOLUCIÓN!

Spore is getting absoultly railroaded on Amazon reviews for it's DRM

http://www.amazon.com/Spore-Pc/dp/B000FKBCX4/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=videogames&qid=1221003072&sr=8-1

It's sitting at a total score of 1 star.

 

I can only assume this is some anti-DRM guerilla campaign. I mean, look at those stats:

5 star:    2%     (46)
4 star:    1%     (34)
3 star:    0%     (17)
2 star:    2%     (42)
1 star:    92%     (1,724)

No way.

Probably not a campaign. A lot of reviewers arrived from sites that linked to Amazon, so they didn't know about it before.

I hope F3 keeps it that way.

So, it kinda doesn't. Bethesda has said it's impossible to complete Fallout 3 without entering combat.

Psh. Combat. Who cares about it anyways? You can complete F1 and F2 without any kind of combat.
