I remember wondering what would happen if I didn't surface in time... it really would suck to get killed by a cutscene abruptly handing control back to the player. I was thinking "I wonder if they'll make a joke about Destiny being a *****..." -- and then they did! On a side note, there...

Supernatural and Burn Notice.

When talking about linked-lists, and using a temp pointer to crawl the list, starting from the head, my Computer Science professor said this: And when mentioning that member functions called by one object of a given class can access the private member variables of another object of the same...

Crysis and Crysis Warhead. Playing those again on my new rig (i7 920/6GB G.Skill DDR3/GTX285) was so much fun, and they'll put your rig through its paces! Edit: 3 posts recommending Crysis to start out with!

Funny... a couple of years ago, my friend and I were in a Halo 2 match in Beaver Creek when some guy started trying to snipe me with a shotgun from across the way. It's now one of our most-used inside jokes. On topic, I'm the PC gamer who keeps trying to convert them.

You nailed this one! I'm still replaying Crysis and Crysis Warhead because it's so fun to experiment with the suit, trying different approaches and tactics, and generally just having fun. Shooting a branch off a tree and then sneaking around using it as a club never gets old, but neither...

Supernatural Can pull off slapstick comedy and really dark horror, even at the same time. And it has a kickass soundtrack! Sadly, the show airs on the CW, and for some reason, the President of Entertainment there hates it. Easily the least advertised show on the network, but it's...

I remember reading somewhere that in order to get the rights to make Serenity with Universal, he had to agree to make one more show with FOX. Thus, Dollhouse. But don't quote me on that.

As said above, Dead Space would be a good choice. As it stands, I'm currently doing my first run through the game, and I already have a group of friends who willingly sit down to watch whenever I pick the game up again. Also, the HUD is more or less completely integrated into the game world...

Surprisingly, I use night vision in the Crysis games to spot enemies at long distance taking cover in the shade. The increased contrast definitely helps me to pick them off. Also, as stated before, in Rainbow Six Vegas, Splinter Cell, Riddick, etc., night vision is very useful for normal...

Yeah, Season 1's already out in the US, so I think Canada should have it as well. Also, Castiel isn't necessarily my favorite, since pretty much every character on the show these days is fantastic,

Dunno about Dollhouse. I fell behind, and then kinda stopped watching once I heard it was canceled. I'll probably finish the series later, though it's worth noting that the ride gets interesting enough to warrant a look, regardless of whether it ends well or not. I'd say go for it, but don't...

Awesome, someone else who watches Supernatural. I also watch Castle and Dollhouse, and when they come back, Psych, Burn Notice, and Royal Pains. Canceled. Right when it was getting good.

I second that.
