    [PC Game] SMITE thread (plus Beta Key giveaway!)

    Smite is a MOBA-style game being developed by Hi-Rez Studios, creators of Tribes: Ascend. Unlike most MOBA games like League of Legends and Defense of the Ancients, however, it is not played from a top-down isometric view. Rather, you play in a 3rd person over-the-shoulder perspective as you...

    [Books] The Hunger Games - It's not Battle Royale for kids, damnit!

    So with the ''What are you reading?" thread filling up with more and more people who have read the series, and the movie coming out next week, I figure it was reason enough to make a thread, both for discussion and getting even more people to read it. Let's do it! The book: The Hunger Games...

    [Movies] Monty Python crew reunites!

    Oh yes. I have mixed thoughts about it, but mostly I'm just hella excited. Even if it's not a true Python film, the premise seems great enough that it likely won't matter.

    Terraria!

    I just want to plug a addictive little game called Terraria. It is a 2D platformer with lots of elements of minecraft, but a more progression-to-goal style of gameplay. I.e. there's tiers of armor, weapons and enemies, there are boss monsters and high-level, very dangerous biomes to explore...

    P Diddy Sued for a trillion dollars because of 9/11, a kid and a poker chip

    Welp Emphasis mine. I am baffled by the amount of crazy in this woman. It is hilarious yet also quite saddening. I don't even know. Also: 100 ZILLIONS OF DOLLARS! I wonder how much that even is.

    Protest against...spelling bees.

    http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100603/ap_on_re_us/us_spelling_bee_protest I wish these people would put effort in trying to learn rather than trying to dumb down the rest of the world. I can get if you're a dyslexic that these words spell trouble for you (pun completely intended), but I doubt...

    Wahad's Writing Pad

    I'm not sure if writing is welcome here, but since it is the only thing I can do with reasonable skill (or so I've been told) I thought I might as well. So, writing! I do so occasionally - no novels, no short stories, just whatever comes to mind, one/two pages long. Sometimes people (mostly...

    Tell me why I should(n't) get Civ IV

    So I've been looking at a new game to play, and I've heard Civ IV is a great game. As a casual player of strategy games (although I prefer RTS, TBS games are okay in my book) it seems like a good bet. However, some people have told me it was boring/slow. Therefore I turn to you, Halforums...

    Gametable not working for me

    I've tried to download Gametable version 2.0.RC7, but when I open it I get this: http://i39.tinypic.com/f1z5tf.jpg As you can see, all text from all menus is gone. Also, I can not update my pogs. Downloading previous versions gives me the text back, but the inability to update my pogs...
