I imagine it gets tiring very fast.

Because cinematics are the most important part of a game's quality.
Especially when its squareenix making their patented "Men who Look Like Women" modern character design.

How do people as stupid as you survive getting out of bed?

The gaming industry has become such a mainstream hog of energy, resources and money now due to the invention of HD and the ridiculous cost of the hardware these games have to run on, that companies no longer have the time to make a good sequel. Its simple as that. Same reason there's so much shovelware from once-respectable companies flooding the shelves these days. Too many greedy people reaching for the almighty dollar.
The only way it'll get fixed is for the industry to collapse on itself. But thats never going to happen.

EGM simply because it covers everything.

Nintendo Power has been great since its redesign.

Either way the worst mag is still Gamepro. So many obvious bribed reviewers. Makes me sick.

Do you enjoy a game that is simple and amusing to play online? TF2

Do you enjoy a game where you can train yourself to become a merciless soldier of death? CSS

Do you enjoy metal slug? Soldat

Why do people still play these? These went from being "fun" to being "work" like 4 or 5 games ago.

Please dont direct these people to other forums where they can try to swindle MORE people into doing their work for them.

The saddest part of this thread is that the "joke" (if we can call it that) was stolen from an mspaint comic thats been floating around various sites and chans for a few years.
Pathetic.

I dont like their songs where they shriek lyrics over the music.
Everything else of theirs I adore.

Hi guys I'm a scam artist.
Please present your art to me so I may judge it and possibly hire you to do graphics for a game.
I claim I can pay you but I really cant.

fixed for accuracy.

Anigen?
Never heard of him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh hey its fixed.
lol

of course it still gets an error but the preloader is working

IGNORE ME

I wish to give out my utmost thanks to you.
Ever since I got flash cs3 I've been very wary of it because its large, and much slower than flash mx. I run by the "if its not broken, dont fix it" policy.

So over the last month or so, I've been playing with the software and have slowly come to enjoy it. I have more options than I did with MX in terms of visuals and overall its much easier to get certain desired effects.

So imagine my joy when I finished my christmas cartoon and downloaded this years christmas preloader.
Huzzah, I thought.

But my joy was not to last because Flash had an error.

"Gee this must be the flash MX version of the loader. I guess they forgot to mention that!" so because I now had 100 new symbols that weren't doing anything other than slowing my pc down, I copied everything into a NEW file without the mx preloader not labeled as the mx preloader.

So to the preloaders page I went (as opposed to the christmas page) and downloaded a zip file of christmas preloaders.

OOH! One that works in MX and one that works in CS3. So I delicately place it into the first frame of my movie.

And now to export.
Whats this? AN ERROR? Something about buttons and actionscript and movieclips? Gibberish I dont fucking understand?
Oh Cs3! You're just like Mx in every way. Telling me things only a programmer can understand with shitty directions on how to fix it.

And so my cartoon SKIPS past the preloader automatically. What joy! WHO NEEDS A PRELOADER?
Certainly not the viewers at home!

Well perhaps a different one will work!
Lets see if that api preloader works. It is the newest version after all. Why, it should work perfectly.
WELL GOLLY GOSH GEE WILLIKERS!!!!!!! 10 ERROR LINES! Why this version is clearly superior! Instead of getting 1 error I get 10!

Well lets see what happens if I save it as a flash 8 file and send it to one of my friends with flash 8! Oh it doesnt work! Oh it opens but the text is all gone! Oh it opens but the api caused the pc to crash!

What wonders I have experienced this night.
And I just wanted to unfold my arms and give my most cherished thanks to both Adobe and whomever codes the NG preloader for ruining a christmas cartoon and destroying QUITE A FEW HOURS of my life.

Because I didnt need to spend all that time animating. I could have been masturbating or curing cancer or whatever the fuck else it is I do.

Merry Christmas to all
and to all a Good Night!!!!!!!!!!!

You know there is no possible way you can actually say moar and have people still take you seriously, right?

Most people these days dont have taste in music. So music that actually uses catchy melodies (like the ones you tried to play) are going to bother them.

They like to hear the same drum machines playing the same beats with the same angry young men in bandannas shrieking over them.

No.
Please kill yourself.

I love them.

And sawdust was an interesting album. Alot different than their previous albums. Its good to see a band experimenting and evolving their sound.

I've learned that titles are often misleading. And stupid shit can have great titles.

I usually pick out things by who makes them now. How do I know this person. What has this person made in the past. And was it good.

I just lead them on for an hour with inane babble. Wasting their time and annoying them.

Sniglet sounds like a new racial slang term to me.
Or a candy bar.

Both are pretty stupid.

I think he's giving them to people whom he knows will use them.
