Read it about six or seven years ago. I liked it too. The author makes Inman's gun sound awesome the way he describes it.

"Eight pneumatic impact hammers stitched into the vest pound you where you were hit - four front and four back ...Get pounded with body slams, crushed with G-forces and blasted with bullet fire" Why do I want to pay $138.99 to get physically punished? Lol, they have Dead Space as a compatible game. If you ever wondered what it felt like to get eviscerated by a space creature...

Kind of a rookie compared to most people here. ATI Radeon 9800 Pro (November 2004- Summer 2006) BFG Geforce 7600 GT (Summer 2006-December 2008) Sapphire Radeon HD 4850 (January 2009-present)

Looks pretty cool. Are you guys going to make videos and stuff when you train? That would be awesome (also dangerous).

Oohhh, I'm on youtube (for about 5 seconds). Yeah, the end footage that Jackie posted was what I was talking about. He didn't show the part where I was shooting at the wall with my M4 because I heard the Boomer too, yet no one on the opposite team accused me of hacking. Jackie started shooting after I emptied my clip and managed to hit the Boomer, who was making a racket, and they started accusing him of using a map hack. My guess (and I'm sure everyone on our team guessed too) is that they were trying to set up to boom us as we went around the corner, but they waited too long. They made the same mistake upstairs too; the guy spawned too early, we heard him, and I think xpkoala killed him through the wall. Jackie just plays L4D the way other people play CS; you know all the hiding spots in the map, you predict your enemies' movements, know how to handle your weapon, etc. He also usually plays on a team of people he knows, so his team already has a level of trust that a randomized team doesn't, although I'm pretty sure he could do equally well on a random team too. Still, 7:00 looks suspicious. I call major hacks on you! I have Valve on the phone right now...

Managed to catch this on IGN last night. Yeah, that whole scene where the Big Daddy had to defend the Little Sister from all those Splicers made me nervous; looks a lot harder than the scene you did in the first Bioshock. They also did a lot more with sound; half of my nervousness came from the Splicers yelling at you from the darkness. Wondering how multiplayer is going to turn out. Drill, anyone?

Reminds me of that one Simpsons episode: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bart_the_Mother "Bart and Marge take the lizards to the Springfield Birdwatching Society. Principal Skinner, a member of the society, explains that they are Bolivian tree lizards, a type of lizard that steals a bird’s eggs and leaves their own eggs to be watched after by the mother bird. Skinner says the lizards must be killed by law, because they have killed many bird species. Bart escapes and runs away with the lizards, but before he can get away, Skinner catches up to him and they both struggle on top of the building. Suddenly, the lizards glide to the ground, where they start to decimate pigeons in Springfield. Since the town considered the pigeons to be a nuisance, they are delighted with the fact that the lizards have eaten all the pigeons. As a result, Bart is thanked and honored by Mayor Quimby with a loganberry scented candle. Lisa worries that the town will now become infested by lizards rather than the pigeons, but Skinner assures her that they will send in Chinese snakes, then gorillas, and then "winter will take care of the rest."

In that one game we played on No Mercy Level 2, the guys that accused you of hacking never mentioned the fact that I started spamming that wall with M4 bullets before you did because I heard the Boomer too. You shoot a couple rounds and hit the Boomer, they get all agitated. So... Spam a wall and not hit the Boomer= okay Spam a wall and hit the Boomer= hacker

It's the F word, at least in the version I saw.

No, I did not because I didn't get any. Nuts.

http://www.mybrutecheats.com/ Found this site; you guys may have already seen it. It doesn't have a lot of new information we don't already know or can use, but they do list two weak Brutes that are generally used to level up easily: kostucha and 4UL3. I'm sure you guys already know a few, but there's those two if you feel like you need to get to that next level quicker than usual. I don't think it counts as a cheat necessarily since you can view anyone's stats, skills, and fight history in their cell and judge if you can win or not, but that's up for you guys to decide.

Lol, yeah, I saw this last week. Funny stuff.

Lol, nice. You can hear people go, "Aw," when they dump the boxes in the garbage can. Happy Mother's Day, indeed.

EDIT: Lol, I'm so going to get blamed if these maps aren't good. *Shakes fist at mookie* I thought that quick reply was a joke...instead, it was a trap!

Looks to be about halfway to level 10. She said it'd be about 5-6 days, so maybe 2-3 more days now?

Nice job.

I agree. Although I haven't played any of the GTA series, I think that debut trailer has some good voice work. Dunno about the game itself though. Haven't seen enough to judge gameplay mechanics and such.

Part of me thinks she's had work done to her face, which may be why she keeps making a similar expression. If not, then yeah, that's weird.

Level faster! I think Dragonfire and MiniMe will be the first people to get to level 10 based on their skill sets/weapons/animals. VoodooPC and nightling will probably follow close behind.

Voted for Skimmer. Good luck.

I would be so angry if I was that other player.

I passed along your suggestions to my dad. Thanks for the advice, guys. Really appreciate it.

I'm having trouble with opening/ identifying a certain file type. My dad got it from his brother, who doesn't know what it is either, so he showed it to me to figure out how to open it. The format is (.pps_=), without the parentheses. I don't know what the "_=" is for. I've never seen this format before; right now, it's associated with Internet Explorer, but my dad can't open it with that. I tried googling what this is, but all I get for results is .pps, which is associated with Powerpoint (which my uncle and dad do have), Paintshop Pro, Arcview, and Personal Producer Storyboard. Is this just Powerpoint? Or is it one of the other 3? I want to say it's Arcview out of the other 3 formats, but I don't know. Thanks for any help.
