    The game that took your frustration virginity

    Im going to say Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines. I was playing with only official patches, and spec'd in Firearms and ... something else (can't really remember), however was weak as shit when it came to physical combat. The mission at the factory you had to blow up early on (you know the...

    Weirdest unneccesarry things you do in games.

    Win races (such as the ferrari challenge) with a fully tuned 308 in Gran Turismo, without running off the track or crashing. Seriously, when at full tune (which i think is about 6-700HP) the thing slides all over the place, even on slicks. Edit: And in Fallout 3, I decided I wanted one...

    FPS flow chart

    VTM: Bloodlines needs to be a parent of Fallout 3, as (to my knowledge) a large amount of ex-Trokia guys ended up working in it. I would say that many of the design decisions in Fallout 3 were thus based upon what worked, and what didn't for VTMB. If you play them both, you can really see the...

    Metro 2033 and other PC games which can only be maxed out with hardware from the distant future.

    ph0b0s123, when it comes down to it, your biggest problem is going to be (strangely enough) the age of the cards. These graphics cards are so new; there really hasn't been time for the driver to mature. Even in single card configuration, there are still plenty of bugs to be worked out by the...

    Would you be friends with Yahtzee, if you met him in real life?

    I actually live in Brisbane, and have met him once at a small thing called 'Game On', a festival held by the Brisbane library (from memory) to celebrate gaming. He was pretty approachable, and seemed to be a pretty cool guy; however he never dropped his ZP persona so I?m not sure what he...
