10 Reasons Why We Hate Facebook

netean says...

so true, all of them.

I HATE facebook, and hate lazy marketing people who use facebook because they can't be bothered to actually build their own site too.

After much searching I finally closed my facebook account last year and have NEVER looked back and strangely I've managed to live quite happily not knowing about the new stables and feed troughs my friends have bought on Farmville.

Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary

netean says...

um... these guys sound passionate, but i just can't see the point. Halo was great, but it doesn't need a remake, at least not in my opinion.

"achievements are long overdue" - really? I find achievements the most pointless aspect of modern gaming.

I'm sure this will sell a bundle though.

Atheists Raise Money For Church

netean says...

How can you say "pseudo-religion" The FSM is as real to me as your "holy spirit" thing.

Just because you don't feel the loving touch of his noodly appendages, doesn't give you the right to Diss my faith over yours.

(nor does it give me the right to vandalise your church either.)

No one should use their freedom of expression, freedom of choise, freedom of faith/belief to deny that same right to others. (these Fucktards clearly did and that's sad)

Although on the plus side. Everything happens for a reason, and just because you can't see your God and my FSM moves/wiggles in a mysterious way. So maybe it's just all part of the big pasta plan?

WoW Cataclysm - Patch 4.2: Rage of the Firelands

netean says...

Whilst a huge game, with lots to potentially do.. All I (too) noticed in the vid was:

"yet more grind"

(after three months of solid grinding, I got so fed up running from here to there to gather, collect, kill x number of Xs. I gave up)

They really should rename it:

"The sad and lonely world of Grindcraft"

Pastor Outs Gay Teens in Church-Watch Quick before Copyright

netean says...

Leviticus. what a great guy. But why don't god botherers heed ALL of his advice, not just the being gay bit.
Off the top of my head:
Where are the animal sacrifices that all God botherers must make to satisfy god
men shouldn't go to church when "unclean"
nor women during their period

men mustn't cut their beards or the sides of their hair

and my favourite:

Christmas trees are expressly forbidden inside a house (at christmas).

Still I'm sure the guy in this video adheres to all of those and would never insult god with, what is clearly a satanic object of a Fraser Fir at Christmas time.

Seriously. if you want to be a bible thumper, stop peddling this evil, nasty, hateful, self=loathing shit. Market church and god bothering for what it really can be good for:

Frienshdip, a sense of community, an identity, a code of conduct and ethics, a sense of purpose, a structure for life, or a path/code to follow for life.

stop peddling "everlasting life" (who the fuck wants to live forever - how boring would that be!), stop peddling sin and self-hate, and all that other shit.

People like this just make me sick and, if there was ever something good to come from religion, it's twats like this that hide it under their veil of control, deceit and passive hatred.

Mint 11 Review

netean says...

no only is it good, not only is it fast, not only does it look nice.
But it doesn't have that goddawful shite that Ubuntu want to pretend is an interface. Unity is bloody awful.

Thank you Linux Mint for taking the best bits of Ubuntu and making what I think is the best, nicest, fastest OS there is. (well OSX might be nicer, but you get the point)

Star Wars: The Old Republic - Incredible Opening Cinematic

netean says...

A Stunningly good looking cinematic. Well written, directed rendered and animated.
Still, the "magic" of Star Wars for me went with Episode I and it's never returned. Played Knights of the old republic but felt there was too much running around doing nothing..

In terms of great gameplay I still reckon Tie Fighter is right up there. Been playing it recently via dropbox and almost any other game that old, it still holds up really well.

"Pre-rendered cinematics ≠ gameplay" Agree 100%

But wish it wasn't true. Then this game would be rather good.

RAGE - The Well Official Gameplay Trailer

netean says...

oh it definitely looks polished, no argument there. But what I was trying to say is that in terms of gameplay, it's nothing ID games haven't done 1000 times before. Wolfenstein, Doom, Quake etc.
surely someone in their company must have a yearning to make something other than an FPS shooter.
As for hardware, ID games have always been notorious for requiring high end kit. Even back in the day ID games needed a 486dx not a 386sx, and it's always been like that.

True, running on a console, you won't have that problem. But when I look at games like Portal 1&2 that can take the FPS shooter idea and turn it into something original (that looks great and runs great on even low end hardware) I look at the 1 game ID Games have re-made over the years (remade with polish mind you, they always look great) and find their lack of originality disappointing.

That's not to say I won't buy this, because I might. But essentially it isn't anything new or different to a game type that has more or less been there and done it all now.

RAGE - The Well Official Gameplay Trailer

netean says...

This game feels like it's been in development nearly as long as Duke Nukem Forever - I remember seeing early footage just after Quake 4 launched.

Tragic to think that after all this time, all this development and money, they've made a very visually stunning game that looks quite dull and tedious. To my eye looks exactly the same as Quake 4/3/2/1 Doom etc just with better graphics.

So essentially this is Quake 1 but you'll still need to invest an a top of the line new gaming rig just to get more than 15fps.

ID Games: a 1 trick pony that seem to think if they up the graphics enough time no one will notice the total lack of originality!
