YES!

Welcome back proud and glorious commander, I kept the seat warm! ------------------ Cmdr. Parias Spectre Fleet Chief Engineer, Starstation Destiny ICV-Galatae ICQ:1293359 Staff member at HardNews "I took this job because I just really love to blow sh*t up!"

Okay people, I need to know, am I just conky in the head, or are all the threads suddenly inverted, showing the newest post at the top and the creating post at the bottom? It sure as heck takes some getting used to, and I can't locate the option anywhere to reverse it! Did I screw up my account or something? ...Although I DO like the nice touch to the left... 532 posts.. *whistles* Quite a bit more than I was figuring.. ------------------ Cmdr.

LOL, I'm gonna get some good use outta this! ------------------ Cmdr. Parias Spectre Fleet Chief Engineer, Starstation Destiny ICV-Galatae ICQ:1293359 Staff member at HardNews "I took this job because I just really love to blow sh*t up!"

Cynical, that was a pretty good post considering all the other stuff I saw flying around on that thread.. I'm impressed Anywho, this all sort of reminds me of a lawsuit that a certain developer threatened to take against SomethingAwful for making fun of their game... needless to say, the issue got dropped pretty fast, but it WAS hilarious. Go check it out if you're bored. Anyways, back on topic, IMHO Homeworld is a pretty damn solid game, with a good storyline and everything. And me trying to compare it with BC3k is an apples/oranges deal. Hell, I like em both just fine Although BC3k gets a bit more use, since I can go back and play it for ages, meanwhile with Homeworld, you beat it once, maybe twice, apply a few mods (One word: Babylon 5!) and play it again, play some multiplayer.. and you're done. It's a good game while it lasts though. ------------------ Cmdr.

OUCH! My highest sympathies.. oh man.. something like this to happen has REALLY gotta suck. People don't seem to really worry too much about drunk driving, untill a drunk person hits someone you care about. Definately understand why you're pissed.. ugh! Once again, my best sympathies. I'm really not too sure on what else to say... man, now there's something to roll over in your head for awhile.. ------------------ Cmdr.

Well, while it isn't necessarily a "bad" site, it IS hilarious.. and Jeff K. is the role model of l33t h@x0rs everywhere I present: SomethingAwful! ------------------ Cmdr.

I attempted to do a "Beggar's Canyon" run with my Battlecruiser on some far-flung planet I forgot the name of... needless to say, I was stranded on the planet for quite a bit of time ------------------ Cmdr.

Nice Ben.. Me, I just keep playing in my head the music from Freespace 2 at the part where (*spoiler*)the Colossus gets destroyed(*/spoiler*) while picturing a scene of me and a whole bunch of other Insurgents making a suicide run at Galcom HQ... *rubs hands together and cackles evily* ------------------ Cmdr.

It's on up here as well, one of the very rare times my sis is able to drag me kicking and screaming off the comp to watch it with her.. not sure which channel it's on, either Teletoon or YTV, but I'm lazy so sue me ------------------ Cmdr.

You got a point Vorpal, but then again, that DOES say a lot about my skills in BC3k.... ------------------ Cmdr. Parias Spectre Fleet Chief Engineer, Starstation Destiny ICV-Galatae ICQ:1293359 Staff member at HardNews "I took this job because I just really love to blow sh*t up!"

Chain 'o Command is downloading on the pr0n pipe as we speak, I'll give it a go and tell ya what I think Update: Been playing it for quite awhile now, pretty damn solid, addicting too! Thanks Tac ------------------ Cmdr.

Hah hah, Insurgents are clearly the mightest explorers around! Behold: Explorer 80% Achiever 53% Socializer 53% Killer 13% I note that the only other person with a high Explorer rating so far is also an Insurgent.. come new recruits, join our fine cause! See the universe! Make friends! ...Then blow them away! ------------------ Cmdr.

Netrek?! *blinks and glances over page* Shite. I spent a good deal of time hunting this thing down a long time ago, never managed to grab it.. this page just made my bookmarks If anybody wants to give the multiplayer mode a try, gimme a yell and I'll host a game on the good old pr0n pipe. ------------------ Cmdr.

Looks good to me! ------------------ Cmdr. Parias Spectre Fleet Chief Engineer, Starstation Destiny ICV-Galatae ICQ:1293359 Staff member at HardNews "I took this job because I just really love to blow sh*t up!"

Actually I'm hellishly looking forward to this sucker.. Everquest has had me addicted (and stolen a hefty chunk of my finances) for months, and I've got quite a bit of confidence in Verant to pull this off as well. Suh-weet! ------------------ Cmdr. Parias Spectre Fleet Chief Engineer, Starstation Destiny ICV-Galatae ICQ:1293359 Staff member at HardNews "I took this job because I just really love to blow sh*t up!"

Yup, ganked it when it was released as an early beta.. they've improved it quite a bit, new weapons, classes, and a couple new zones, it's actually pretty fun! ------------------ Cmdr.

Sub-Space was a classic.. although right now I'm playing Infantry Zone, a ground-based game working off an upgraded version of the same engine.. go check it! ------------------ Cmdr.

Uh, Ice, just because everyone else isn't posting every 20 minutes doesn't exactly mean the forum "died" ------------------ Cmdr. Parias Spectre Fleet Chief Engineer, Starstation Destiny ICV-Galatae ICQ:1293359 Staff member at HardNews "I took this job because I just really love to blow sh*t up!"

Y'know, I'm gonna have a hard time deciding between screaming, fainting, or cheering if SHODAN's ugly face pops up on my PC one of these days.. ------------------ Cmdr.

I myself enjoy running my Battlecruiser through what I call the "Gammulan Gauntlet".. I think it kinda speaks for itself ------------------ Cmdr.

I agree with Rattler.. I had to read that post. 3 times. And I'm a pretty damn good reader too But seriously, I won't have to worry about overheating at all, and I'm already self-trained in the fine arts of minimal nourishment (I have an average of 2 meals a day).. all I'd have to worry about is utter and complete lack of sleep ------------------ Cmdr.

Well well well, look who's come crawling back to the Galcom cause! *gets glared at* Er, I mean, good to see ya again Phased! ------------------ Cmdr.
