Which game is better?
Time
Is this Battletoads

A.K.A. Combat Frogs, Conflict Amphibians, War Tadpoles, etc.

It's every game ever made.

Started on 4chan after a VG screenshot contest, the "Is this Battletoads?" (blame furries) phenomenon is now a classic (read: old and retarded) 4chan meme and appears whenever someone requests a game title, information or screenshot. Another good use is to go to the most popular boards on GameFAQs and inquire whether or not the game in question, is in fact, Battletoads.

The correct answer to "Is this Battletoads?" is, of course, "No, it's Doom 3".
GameStop loves battletoad preorders. It accounted for 50% of their 2006 4th quarter sales. In fact, why don't you call and preorder one now.

Recently it's become a popular for Ebaumsworld fags to call their local GameStop asking for Battletoads pre-orders. It is monumentally important that these people ask what system it is available for and the answer is usually "STOP CALLING MY FUCKING STORE".

Video Games - a general discussion thread

Another point to ponder, Online gaming, a very prominent and used way to play newer games anymore, and the most popular ones involve one pointing at another and firing, yet people do it for endless hours, because its great fun and the mode of game play is interesting. I guess all those people missed the part when a game doesn't have a story it no longer can be consider a game.



That's one of the main reasons why I DON'T play online games, because they have no story. Without one, it's just kinda boring.

The majority of development and testing goes into the game play. Like I said before its a video game its meant to be played, if you need a good thriller go rent a movie.


Play the first two Monkey Island games, Sam & Max Hit The Road, The Dig, and Grim Fandango, then come back and type that post again.

Not once in that movie am I taken out of the world Spielberg and countless artists and animators created. Even the shot that most people say looks fakest (the brachiosaurus in daylight when they first get there) looks incredibly convincing to me. Or perhaps it's my childhood memories of me being convinced they were real when I was 7 that spill over to today.


There's one shot in Jurassic Park that always amazes me. The camera is in the car with Malcolm and Grant, and you see the animatronic T-Rex through the glass roof of the car. Then the camera pans down slightly so that you no longer see through the roof, and the CG T-Rex starts walking towards the other car.

Movie magic at it's finest.

Does anybody know where I could find some good free downloadable fonts?
Time
I tried Google, but I couldn't find anything good. I seem to remember someone posting a link to the site in the Preservation section (was it ADM, perhaps?) that was really good, but I can't remember what it was.


To be more specific, I'm making posters for an event at my school, and I wanted to get a font that somewhat resembled the letters that are always on ransom notes in movies; you know, magazine cut-out letters and stuff. The closest I could find was a Sex Pistols font, but I was hoping for something a bit better.

Exactly. The whole "everything in this book is fact"....or something to that effect...that he has in the beginning of the book is to put you in the mood. I loved reading the book and reading things I just knew were not true but in the world of the novel, having these things as fact makes everything around them that's happening much more interesting.


Michael Crichton does this in his book as well. For instance, in "Eaters of the Dead/ The 13th Warrior" the introduction says that the book was an exact translation of a recently-found manuscript of a viking fellow. Or in Jurassic Park's intro, it talks about the corporation InGen as if it actually existed. Although I will say, they were a bit more tongue-in-cheek than Dan Brown's intro, where he pretty much says "The following book is based on fact." Brown needs to learn that subtlety is a good thing.

If so many other books have done this in the past, I wonder why "Da Vinci Code" got so many people so worked up? Is it because it's about Jesus?

I personally thought the "Da Vinci Code" movie sucked, though.
