Have you seen Trine?

It's an absolutely gorgeous puzzle platformer with heavy emphasis on physics that was recently released to rave reviews. I finished it a couple of days ago - and loved it, loved it, loved it Highly recommended.

I've long thought that with the advances in computer software/hardware/etc. that they should make an old platformer style game (which remains a very playable and entertaining game style) with berserk graphics quality.

Sure, there's been some really great 3D FPSs and third person person games made... but with the reduced requirement on processing for that depth dimension, imagine the possible quality of a sidescrollers we might've seen!

I'm very glad to finally be seeing some of these emerge with something approaching mainstream appeal. I really hope this genre makes a very solid comeback and that games can be judged by more than just their polygon counts.

I found the tone of her voice very easy to comprehend over BillO's wierding way. We should get her to fight more battles against him for our far-left agenda.

Thanks, all fixed up.

Thanks for the pro tip - it makes it much better with the voices.

Such a fantastic game. A short while back, I played the re-release of Star Control 2 since Toys For Bob made it open source.

You can pick and choose which sound/music packs you want to load with it, from either the PC or 3DO versions. I tried to keep it as close to the original PC settings for nostalgic reasons, but I highly enjoyed the 3DO voice acting! If you feel like cranking it up again, I recommend turning that feature on.

Hello, you recently voted for a video of mine (Sarah Palin offers Bristol to Babysit for Tina Fey) which ended up being a dupe of the unsifted video: http://www.videosift.com/video/Tina-Fey-on-Conan-OBrien-1028-12

Hey there Boney, I stupidly discarded this vid when Thylan offered to put them all into one embed code. So I sorta had to start again with it. Can I be a pain and ask you to vote it again

Also your Australia vid is still dead, I found a new embed code and have posted it in the comments section. And only two points away from your yellow star! Fix an embed code in the deadpool or somethin!

Glad I could help a little. You're so close to Gold!

Thanks for the plug there! I'd sorta given up on that one, but I think it just needs a better title to attract views... Interesting docco too, I highly recommend.
