It's like you only get paid when you reference this song and Fahey only gets paid when he throws MLP into a story.

I'm an animator and I've been using 3DS Max for a while now. This looks interesting, but is it only for Team Fortress characters? Or can it accept models created in other packages? Does it simplify rigging, skinning, or animation in any meaningful way?

You put interesting death scenes in a video game, people are going to try to see them all.

To be honest, if you put them both in front of me blindfolded and ask which is which, I wouldn't be able to tell you. But that doesn't mean they taste similar - they are both very different sodas.

Hey hey

I really don't care what the impetus is, it just has to be responsive, consistent, and comfortable. Right now, traditional controls affixed to a touch screen feel terrible, but if they can figure out how to make it work, I'd be open to it.

I'm aware that there are solutions for this, but they aren't great solutions. Lack of support and standardization. Games still don't uniformly even use game pads, and some that can still have big ugly icons on the screen obstructing my view. Others that pass those two obstacles still end up playing awkwardly. Only…

Yeah, I'd be down for that, especially with contract subsidy. But it would need all the best features of the best phones (maybe just throw android on there) and it would have to be open for carriers - considering how things have been in the past, I doubt we'd get more than one carrier.

Verily, the problem is support for said controllers, convenience, and practicality.

Man, I can't wait for controllers to be a thing on mobiles. This looks great. Too bad it has only the capacity to play like ass.

I really should have read the article first. Instead I watched an idiot do nothing on a course that doesn't at all reveal what Merqury City might look like. Royal waste or four minutes. I could have played SSX in that time.

When you say "amazing", I'm kind of expecting a good song.

Hear hear.

Usually this kind of thing is terrible, terrible rot that I feel embarrassed to know exists.

Pretty good atmosphere and pretty visuals, but what a disappointing Slenderman model. It looked like a makeshift scarecrow made of old couch cushions.

I've seen that and "Nobody is going to read this, but I'm a 15-year-old toaster."

I watched that whole thing

Also the skinning on all the models was really poor. Lots of interpenetration of the polys and some weird stretching. That dude's daughter was also really low-res, but considering how good Leon and his partner looked, I'll bet it's something they're saving for later to work on.

I know man, in some parts of this state like LA's valley and in the desert it's absolutely brutal. Without AC it's probably akin to one of the outer circles of hell in terms of cruelty. And heat.

I used to live in New Hampshire where hot days totaled maybe 75 days out of the year if we were lucky. I love living in California now no matter how hot it gets.
