  1. Right I've spoiler-tagged both. Sorry I'm working on the assumption folks have seen at least up to last episode. I agree "Mel" was shitty. Also I don't see the idea that they meet in the opposite direction being set in stone.
  2. So I guess now it's a case of filling in the gaps of what Melody has been doing from
  3. But you didn't I had to edit your post. You used URLs.
  4. Right I'm aware the button is invisible, but next to the speech bubble icon (for quotes) and the Twitter icon is two invisible buttons. If you hover over them it pops up with the name. One is "MEdia" for embedding videos, the other is Spoilers, for embedding things from games that came out last week. For everything else there's that kind of mini excel spreadsheet icon next to "Font"/Word" that lists a bunch of handy BBcodes.
  5. In plain speak: When I was watching the video the first time I wasn't wholly paying attention. In fact I was writing up the post and embedding the video as I was watching. The side effect of this was I missed the part where it explained the transition from Ezio on top of the battlements to Altair speaking to Al Mulamin in Masyaf. Hence " suddenly Ezio was younger, wearing different clothes and talking to a guy I'm pretty sure was dead (I did stick a knife in his neck after all*)" *alluding to the end of Assassins Creed 1
  6. kekeke. Oh because we disagree with the idea of $2,800 over-priced laptop its why we are our own worst enemies or is it cos Kotakus PC coverage sucks and they get called out on it by PC gamers? Kotaku editors are kotakus worst enemies. And theirs posts and the past days member boost is pretty much a case study in that. Oh and yeah the pink comic sans in large wads is a bit off-putting.
  7. That's actually before my time by about a year or so. SpoonyBard n the like. I'm in contact with them, should maybe check up on them again actually. They love kotaku as much as the guys here do
  8. http://pressxordie.com/live.html Muhahahah. It works!!! Could maybe do with a slight bit of tweaking but all in all it works (with a bigger video too and chat too) Feel free to use either. This is mainly an experiment for later things. (Also I guess I don't need to reply to the PM now)
  9. He doesn't tend to have a philosophical discussion with people while walking about with them in the sun.
  10. For those who want a peak: http://www.rockpaper...r-announcement/ Kotaku is the one flaw I see in RPS. I'm somewhat unsure on why RPS associates themselves with Kotaku (They have syndicated posts). There must be something they're seeing that the rest of the internet isn't. And Jim also seems very sure that Kotaku haven't been paid off for those articles. (which as both sides of the argument has no proof put's his opinion on level with those who think it was bought). I don't know if he's being defensive because it's Kotaku or because it's a fellow games journalists. See I know from following the RPS lot on Twitter they're not rolling in it. But Kotaku guys? They're rolling in iProducts on day one, macbooks, buying $3000 a pop PCs. They're not exactly skint. Oh btw here's a picture of Mike Fahey about to go up in a vomit comet, which is about $5000 a pop, for Tabula Rasa. @Masterdex: Orwellian community. Everything Kotaku write is gospel and all that will be left is suck-ups. If there is nothing to challenge your articles then how can you hope to improve? Oh I also threw that image up on Status updates yesterday but I guess everyone decided to welcome newcomers.
  11. Just ignore warranties Rooting is a software fix, afaik (though I've not done it) it's usually pretty easy to return back to normal if you need to. As for myself I'm currently browsing available phones. My contract is nearly up and Virgin have a habit of getting me a new phone a couple months before it ends (I guess to stop me looking elsewhere). Only problem is the only Android they have on my current tariff is the Wildfire S. So I'd be going all over again with the same phone, but missing the mousepad/button. I quite like the Galaxy S which is in my price range and one of the few Samsungs to be supported by Cyanogenmod. btw when looking I saw the Nexus S was "the first phone with a curved screen". I couldn't really see it. Whats that all about?

    I saw this yesterday: Thanks for explaining what the hell it was going on about.
  13. To HH: Ah yeah I remember that one. There has been others, mainly with ACII from what I can remember. The locations would probably be yanked from the game, but it was small specifically built purpose area to show off as many new features in one go (cos it ended with Ezio diving into water, which killed Altiar) To Phallus: I may have missed that part. I did notice he was suddenly running up walls to get to the guy. I also had to rewind a bit cos suddenly Ezio was younger, wearing different clothes and talking to a guy I'm pretty sure was dead (I did stick a knife in his neck after all)
  14. Oh I jsut threw my name down to fill out numbers. If you end up with too many feel free to take me out. Also I'll get back to you on that PM. Let me work some stuff out in the morning.
  15. Gameplay walkthrough. Which means spoilers (in the past the AC gameplay demos have been specially built segments, but he makes it clear at the start it's in-game) I'm liking the idea of the bombs. Hoping you're not old crippled n restricted for all the game and just in this specific case. (Also I've changed thread title if no one minds)
  16. The cord is small in the picture so that it can fit all in the picture. It's called photoshop. It's about *gets out tape measure* 8 feet.
  17. That would be what a headset is As for a headphones n desktop mic set-up I know Johnny is pretty dead set on that combination over a headset anyday. Says built-in mics are crappy.
  18. I currently have a Plantronics... something something (G77?) Was recommended by RPS and it's pretty good. Really big ear cups so my ears aren't crushed under the padding, the volume control is a nice chunky well made disc thing, and the mic folds out quite well. Good price too. edit: 367 edit2: 377 that I have. Slight difference in the type of speaker. The one I have has less sound dampening, so not good if you're wanting to be quite (I'm on my tod, doesn't matter) but get richer sounds. RPs recommended the 777 but that was a fair bit out of my price range and I'm still sceptical of 5.1 surround headsets.
  19. http://i.imgur.com/wTTck.png I also carry on forgetting you can post statuses anywhere :P

      The best addition was the consoles.

       

      And that computer case... so pretty.

      You're wrong. This is the evolution of PC gaming. I know that because I read about how awesome it is on Kotaku, The Gamer's Guide. Get with the program, Dean!

  20. Hello!. Walls of texts are welcome and there's no star to lose so no worries. Shame you had to find out about this fair place the way you did, but it seems to be a common theme. The more the merrier.
  21. Aye. I'll be up for some more next week, but as I said in steam chat I'd prefer to play a bit of "proper" CS:S. With hostages n bombs n shit. Chatuae n stuff.
  22. We're playing now if you want to join us
  23. Welcome! As a minor heads up you've put your email down as Steam ID
