    Some 2D inventory graphics

    So I dug around and discovered I still have some weapon inventory graphics for a 2D RPG/strategy game I was working on ten years ago rotting on my abandoned DeviantArt account. The game never made it beyond the character creation screen so I've decided to publish all the graphics on OpenGameArt...

    Greenpeace Germany parody video inspired by Fallout intro?

    Greenpeace Germany put up a parody video in response to a recent video ad by one of the largest energy corporations (RWE). Somehow I can't shake the feeling someone played Fallout before coming up with the idea: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZFGYG7acz4

    Rambo, violence?

    So I watched the uncensored version of Rambo IV recently. Let's just say I was a bit appalled. Maybe it's because I only saw the other three films on TV and thus any explicit violence may have been cut down to a minimum, but has Rambo always been this violent? Don't get me wrong, Rambo...

    Critical Failure -- what?

    Everyone knows them, everyone loves them. Critical failures are what being Jinxed is all about. But how exactly do they work? Is it a roll based on your luck? If so, how is the chance determined? If not, what is it based on at all? Is it rolled on every attack or only after misses...

    Hebrew ads?

    I live in Germany and my browser defaults to British English. Yet, for some reason, lately I get almost exclusively Hebrew ads from Israel and Google has defaulted to Hebrew at one point as well. I have changed nothing in my settings, though, and am still using the same broadband service...

    Ingenious adult website idea

    NOTE: If you are offended by such concepts as internet pornography and making money, buzz off. If you are staff and think this is an inappropriate topic, move it to Ze Odour (I guess the concept works for gay porn actors too). Anyone who's ever wondered about the identity of some girl in some...

    Fansites, babies and quality

    Okay, so I spent the past month hanging around at Guild Wars Online, one of the two "Elite Fansites" for Guild Wars, the online game. After participating in several suggestion threads I made the mistake of responding to a "debate" about "political correctness" after some yank got upset about...

    GuildWars -- trying to find a PvE guild!

    Yes, I play GuildWars. I own all three campaigns, collector's editions of two of them and the Nightfall pre-release box. I'm active on the European English districts and have nine PvE characters, three of which have hit lvl20 by now. I also need a new guild. Apparently there's a...

    What ever happened to Meantime (Wasteland II)?

    I know Meantime reached beta before it was canned and then shelved because it was not deemed economical to continue working on it. I also know that while EA has the rights to Wasteland, it doesn't have the rights to Meantime and its source should be lying around somewhere at Interplay HQ as...

    Yay! Germany is screwed!

    Today the Christian Democratic Union (who're not really all that Christian nor Democratic and are only called a center party because "right" suggests Nazi-dom in Germany), the conservatives who managed to build up enough debts to cause the near-death of our economy, bankrupcy of most if not all...

    Hardware Issues Too

    Today my screen simply want blank. Sadly it doesn't appear to be the screen that's borked as I switched the screen and the PC still won't boot up properly and doesn't send any signal to the screen. The PC boots, checks the DVD drives and then just idles. No beep, no audible initialisation...
