Starport: Galactic Empires

One thing I never see anyone mention when this is brought up, is I'm pretty sure those 1 shots did more damage than the individual solar shots do now, and also a typical planet had a maxed population with max military setting, so I don't think the old way was that much easier than it is now. Althoug...

<3 duece

Thorin = awesome

nine what school are you going to? Just curious

Never finished The Silmarillion, I ought to give it another shot because The Hobbit and LOTR are pretty stellar.

Honestly, for all I care they build a 500 feet high mosque right smack dab on ground zero. The people that are going to be offended by this are incapable of logical reasoning anyways. You'll probably offend them anyways one day while you're trying to do something utterly logical. Completely agree. ...

YES!

I too like George Carlin, but the thing with comedians is that they're often more interested in saying something that sounds right rather than saying something that IS right. Allow me to offer a few points in reply to what he said. With great power comes great responsibility. And we have great powe...

Here ya go Groddy, I think this might be of interest to you; it's called Game Maker: http://www.yoyogames.com/make I've played with the trial version, it's pretty impressive. With a little persistence, you could pull off something awesome with it. These two awesome titles are both made with the full...

I couldnt find the cut I was looking for.. this has an irritating sensationalist intro.. but I think the important bits are in there. You could just skip ahead to 3:45. It's long, but worth it. Not the usual "tower collapsing, pentagon, blah blah" kinda stuff. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid...

Sadly though a lot of what he said is true. http://www.smartplanet.com/business/blog/smart-takes/four-reasons-why-people-believe-in-conspiracy-theories/762/ http://www.scientificamerican.com/article.cfm?id=why-people-believe-in-conspiracies That is fairly reasonable explanation why people believe t...

I picked Link first, he jumps just fine. I will, however, fully agree that Megaman is full of win. :) And btw, you are all newbs. Check out Mushroom Kingdom Fusion , been out for a lot longer.. or at least in development. It might still be in beta after over a year of development, I'm not sure, have...

Aren't there some DDs on classics and maybe one or two other servers?

Oh wow I remember seeing that. It's definitely older than a couple of years, I didn't expect to ever see it again. Looks great, even the background looks nicer. I always thought the current HUD looked way too clunky. Even the original HUD was largely transparent, which, along with the colorful rainb...

Thanks, Toonces, for reminding me of some of the reasons I still bum around here. I'll be baked in a minute here, myself

Thanks for the vid, Major. Beautiful.

...Or this is something that I think is really awesome and I wanted to share with this community. One of the titles, Aquaria, was developed over a two year period by a two man team, Alec Holowka and Derek Yu. Derek Yu is very talented, I've been following his work for years.

They Might Be Giants.. good stuff, Major. I've still got their album Apollo 18 still lying around here somewhere. Fingertips!

omg omg omg

*orgasm

His colonies would always be stable on their own because Chuck Norris barges resources for no one! All his solar cannons would be 10 shot without the need for metal ore; they would run on the power of his awesome! Star ports would pay him to sleep there! Because he's Chuck Norris!

R.I.P. Permaverse 3 - "The new perma. Get in while it's hot."

I shall mourn for thee

(but I still vote to axe all three)

I've been looking for a reason to play, and some decent people to play with. I'm sure I've spent more time since joining in 2006 as an inactive forum troll than anything else, and I don't have much of a feel for the game as it is right now. I also have an astonishingly short attention span. If that'...

Thank you!

Mr. Johnson says patriotism is the last refuge of scoundrels, I myself think of it as the first.

On the subject of history of the world

“History is a set of lies agreed upon.”
Napoleon Bonaparte

Heroism on command, senseless violence, and all the loathsome nonsense that goes by the name of patriotism - how passionately I hate them!
Albert Einstein

Patriotism is the last refuge of scoundrels.
William Samuel Johnson

Be a troll with me?

Uh well are you sure you the most updated driver for your graphics card? Did you happen to turn your hardware acceleration down to play sge, because you would probably want to turn it back up to play that game. Are you sure you meet the system requirements? How is that game anyway? Been aware of it ...

holding down alt and pressing + or - will zoom the minimap in and out. This is how I usually do it because when I am flying, particularly in a fight etc I have both hands on the keyboard and don't want to move them all the way to the mouse.

"Naturally, the common people don't want war, neither in Russia nor in England nor in America, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democ...

If it makes you feel better I read his whole bio and posted the link on facebook, where a few people also took a look and were also blown away.

Well I play this game a lot lately http://www.ganggarrison.com/img/header.png http://www.ganggarrison.com/ It was an entry into tigsource's demake competition like a year ago. It is a "demake" of Team Fortress 2. http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:vi98lJo6u0niyM:http://www.vidsg.com/attachments/Imag...

Well that's all anyone can really ask for

Did you ever try those two games I posted for you? Cuz I have more
