Action before words!

Dear all, Following Pitkin's suggestion, I've asked the Wiki editors if they can external link us from "Freeware". See here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Freeware#Adding_External_Link_-_Freeware_Forum As for the wider problem - I've generated over 5000 hits for my own website (www.par...

A spectre is haunting CWF — the spectre of intellectualism. All the powers of old OG have entered into a holy alliance to exorcise this spectre: moderator and supermoderator, gamehunters and validators, bar-maids and administrators. Where is the party in opposition that has not been decried as intel...

Games in which you are willing to look over MAJOR flaws

Ok - the concept here is simple - are there any games that you love the idea of so much that you are willing to look over major flaws that would usually lead you to hate or dislike a game? I have many of these. For example - Europe 1400: The Guild is a game that is riddled with problems, it doesn't ...

Games You've given a "2nd Chance" To

I don't know aobut you, but I've always been a very idealistic gamer. You don't need to trawl through the hundreds of threads I've been involved in to see that I've always kind of wanted games that don't really exist - and when games do come along that are conceptually interesting I invariably get o...

In addition to what people have said here you also have to do all this while attending classes on time and avoiding the school bully. It is seen as an all time classic of the ZX Spectrum!

Should I leave OG?

I wanted to discuss this here because it feels right to and because I haven't totally made my mind up yet. The recent departure of eMTe might prove to be the final nail in the coffin for me. I increasingly feel very sorry for Dizi who seems to be a girl alone trying to keep a dead site alive (with h...

Zandrav, Eric and others - to address this topic I must, as I usually do, make a recourse to French structuralism, namely Louis Althusser and Michael Foucualt, and in doing so both, following as they do Neitzche and Heidegger, REJECT both German idealism and, more importantly, REJECT humanism.

Can Your System Play the Newest Games

I don't know about you, but I've found system specs have gone through the roof recently. I did a full upgrade of my PC about 2 years ago... new motherboard, new RAM, new graphics card etc. Now I find that the motherboard I bought can't take the "new" type of P4 processor (not enough pins) ...

I saw the Sam n Max sequel is finally getting released - it has been panned in PC Gamer... only 60% or something like that.

They said it just wasn't funny or anywhere near as good as the original.

Firstly, let me commend you on your good judgement and taste. The League has noted a continual decline in activity over in far-off Faerun and the long expected attack from Baldie and his forces never materialised. The League has since ceased many of its activities at BD and released our captive pris...

Wow, thought you guys may have played this. It was a great game in the mid 90s though not that well known. Clue - it's NOT part of a major franchise series like Street Fighter or Virtua Fighter or Tekken.
