    Stolen Pixels #256: The E-Pology

    That would be a good way to calm people down, actually...

    Ten Man Team Aces Quake In Under an Hour

    In Quake, you cannot do multilevel demos without splitting the DEM file. Furthermore, if you have multiple people collaborating on the file, they would wind up starting each level with 100% health, a shotgun, and 50 ammo. While there certainly are runs like this (such as COMPET-N in the world...

    Shamus Plays WoW #3: Into the Bandit's Den

    If you want a specific time that they became neutral, it was an undocumented change in 3.3.0. I stumbled upon that while rep grinding with my DK. I was surprised to see that the "vicious, bloodthirsty quillboar" near the tauren starting area were as docile as ever. It's even more...

    Stolen Pixels #187: Operators Are Standing By

    Whoa, that's dark. Very well played. :) Indeed! :D On one hand, it kinda sucks for the people who invested buckets of hours on getting the 310% mounts (a friend of mine grinded heroic achievements to get his), but on the other hand, YAY, now I can have a swift nether drake without having...

    Stolen Pixels #187: Operators Are Standing By

    I didn't even finish all of the races. I was on the second to last one and I'd inevitably get hit by a lag spike and get knocked off my mount. I'll have to give it another go when I go for the Outland Loremaster achievement. Well, getting all of the heroic WotLK dungeon achievements is...

    Stolen Pixels #187: Operators Are Standing By

    I've been seeing a lot of these in my realm lately. I just shrug and bust out my Netherwing drake. I think mine looks better anyway. :p Another thing to note: the celestial steed doesn't hand players the best mount in the game for $25. If you want that sucker to increase your speed by...

    Stolen Pixels #119: After Curfew

    Honestly, given the way things have been going in WoW lately, I think saying that "the instances are down" would be far more appropriate than "the servers are down." Still, very funny comic. ;D

    Stolen Pixels #48: 2008 Awards, Part 1

    A lot of people (myself included) are of the belief that the "newb" or "newbie" spelling designates a player who is simply new to the game and are of below average skill. As they learn more and become more experienced with the game they lose that label. A "noob" or, as they're commonly...

    Stolen Pixels #43: Build More Prisons

    For some reason I can't help but picture Herbert talking like Carl from Aqua Teen Hunger Force. Somebody help me. :( I've paid $50-60 for games that only lasted 4 hours. :| $20 for four hours of solid gameplay is a bargain.

    Stolen Pixels #40: I Know a Shortcut

    Heh heh heh...exactly. I'm playing two characters in FO3: a good guy and an evil jerk. Incidentally, I'm progressing much faster on the latter despite starting him after the former.

    Stolen Pixels #31: The League of Extremely Ordinary Gentlemen

    Hoo boy, that last one reminds me of the one time I made the mistake of creating a female character in WoW just to mix things up a bit. Not only did I get far more unsolicited group requests than I normally get but some random person also called me "dear." It's definitely proven to be...
