Well, an advantage of being a university researcher who supervises Masters student is that I even organize gaming sessions at my place :P Some time ago I hosted a collective playthrough of the Last of Us over 5-6 evenings, it was awesome :D

Impressions on today's 6 nations games

New round of 6 nations rugby games coming up this weekend, with France vs Ireland, Wales vs Scotland and Italy vs England. I would think the expected outcome would be the victories of Ireland, Wales and England, but we never know. France made 6 changes in the starting lineup with respect to the...

Anyone saw the Ireland vs Wales game and wants to share some impressions? I read that Ireland seemed to have the upper hand, especially in the first half hour, but then Wales managed to be rather opportunistic and come back level (16-16 final score).

About the France vs Italy game: it was close indeed. I knew it just by watching the first 10 minutes: the Italians were really well in the game, playing with a lot of spirit and with no pressure. As for Parisse (I like how "doing a Parisse" became a slang :lol:), you know, when you have a...

Well, I was eventually able to watch both 6 nations games today, via good ol' rojadirecta streams. My impression on both games: [/spoiler] I'd be curious about your impressions, Flint.

By the way, I'll be watching the game of France by streaming on Saturday (or trying to at least - it's kind of hit or miss), however I don't think I'll be able to watch the other games. I'll let you fill me in about England's game. Now we just need someone from Wales or Ireland :monster:

Hey Flint, Glad you bring up the topic about the 6 nations. Do you wish to expand on the subject in this thread or shall I create a new one specifically for that? Thing is, no 6 nations game is going to be broadcasted where I live (I'll try to make do with good ol' rojadirecta streams), so...

In the same vein, I've always enjoyed the party banter you get in the Dragon Age series.

Summer Song is a favorite of mine as well *brofist* I had kind of lost track of him after he released Crystal Planet. It was great to find all what he had released since then. Really love the "Strange Beautiful Music" album.

A bit in the same way, in the last months I've rediscovered how good Satriani was, while I had stopped listening for years for no apparent reason. And he had made some awesome tracks in the meantime. I'll try to attend his next concert in the area (should be around April).

I personally use MindTex instead of Crazbump. MindTex is free. I tend to use heightmaps rather than normal maps, ambiant occlusion is very useful as well. As for the murals, I think you simply need to export your UV layout and spend a fair amount of time on Photoshop (or equivalent) to generate...

I live in Edmonton. THE END.

Same here, could have been on my list as well. I just mentioned 1 & 2 but I could have written the whole franchise. I'm doing a bit of Project CARS right now (although I had to get a new wheel), which I find excellent (and tough!), did you get to try it?

IMO the Espers were really underpowered in that game. Especially at high level. It was a shame because the Esper game mechanics seemed interesting, however they could hardly keep up with the regular damage output of high level characters.

Double standards :monster:

Same as Jason Tandro, I loved most of the games I've played. Now that I think back on them, well some of them are so old (and at the time, I was a kid) that it depended on the context and my tastes of the time. The ones which had left a very big impression on me would be... Auf Wiedersehen...
