And break into a music dance number... with flamethrowers!
Wait, is that a joke, or is there really something out there where that happens?

Cuz if the latter, I MUST know what it is.

Okay, I gotta ask, what's with the ALL-CAPS spelling of "Defy"? You've done that in a few different places now, so it can't be a simple typo. It just seems like you're shouting their name every time you post it.


OT: how many forums like this are there left? because it seems like this on is the only one left now.

God, sci fi really is uncreative.
Now that I think back on it, the most creative way I've seen an alien being killed is in Evolution where they take a fire truck, fill it with Head and Shoulders shampoo and shove it up its ass literally.

OT:
So who's on the chopping block next?

If you don't do video content you don't survive. It feels like the Escapist is on it's last legs, I keep waiting for the announcement they are closing.

Mod DB has issued a call to action, offering to host any and all GameFront files people submit to them (unless the original creator wishes otherwise).

Between that and the impending launch of FilesNation, it seems like a good portion of modding history will be preserved after all (at least for now).

I should search through my parents' ancient desktop PC the next time I visit them. There's a good chance I may have some old files that were lost during the partial shutdown last year.

Anybody get the feeling that Defy is the internet media version of those alien civilizations that hop from planet to planet, using up all of the natural resources and kill all the local lifeforms culminating in them destroying the planet and moving onto the next doomed world?
You mean EA?

The shutdown appears to have been a few days early.

Seeing as how I had only just gotten internet for the first time in my life, FileFront was the very first online community I ever joined. Those six years were great. I will miss the place.

Does anyone still have an archive of the files?
The staff managed to get in contact with other interested mod sites to back everything up, so I don't know if they can currently be accessed but they are safe. The forums were successfully moved to FilesNation as well.

Ok, that's good to hear.
