<![CDATA[Comments from Kruel]]> <![CDATA[Comments from Kruel]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on Stargater Goes Under The Knife, Comes Out A Monster]]> Just saw this episode... one of the better ones IMO. I could tell she enjoyed herself too.

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on 12 Weakest Deaths In Science Fiction History]]> Hick's death pissed me off the most. As far as I'm concerned, Aliens3 happened in an alternate universe and somewhere Hicks and Ripley are having babies. What a shitty way to kill off a hero.

Bobba Fett I can sorta understand. He wasn't that much of a badass until the prequels, though his fate was already sealed.

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on Spore Review: Evolutionary Creationism]]> I both love it and hate it. It's more of a toy than it is a game, until you get to the space stage.

As for the space stage, it tries too hard to be "the game". I wish everyone would just LEAVE ME THE HELL ALONE! I want to play around with the planet molding and terraforming, not fly halfway across the galaxy to fix someone's eco disaster or defend a colony (despite the fact I put an Uberturret on it).

I swear, I'm about to go DEATHSTAR on everyone's ass within 90 parsecs of my home system. Even then, there's the bloody pirates and the grox. =/

Can we get a patch to turn that shit off or what? It's taking the fun out of the game for me.

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on Planet Buster]]> I've gotten to the point where I make millions of sporebucks per sale of spice, so I'm buying planet busters in bulk and going to town on anyone who defies me.

On a side note, I wish the game gave me the option to demand ransoms. >:D

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on Parents Let Kid Drop Out of High School to Focus on Guitar Hero]]> He's not dropping out of school, you sensationalist doofs. I think it's great personally. If the kid has talent, then he should develop it.

I was homeschooled, never went to college, yet I was making 30 bucks an hour working from home at 17 years old. You don't need to conform to the system to be 'useful to society'. :/

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented]]> ^^ Gerbil hunting

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on Mass Effect PC Ships, DLC Doesn't Quite Ship]]> Meh, can I trade my 360 version for a PC version? If not I'll be having to get my yarrr on!

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on Deus Ex Free Next Week]]> After all these years, Deus Ex is still my favorite single player game. I wish someone would do a remake with the Unreal3 Engine... I'd even help with a conversion, as I'm no stranger to game design.

If you can stomach the old graphics, it's definitely worth a go.

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on Spore Creature Creator Date And Price Detailed]]> Like others have said, I too would only buy this if it meant $10 off the full game.

There's always torrents... arrrr matey!

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on 10 Lazy Gadgets To Help You Automate Your Weekend]]> That auto-mower needs a motion sensor with turret attached to keep away the thieves. I'd be too lazy to sit there and watch it until it finished the job.

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented]]> That's one badass ship. I hope Jumpgate offers plenty in the form of piracy. >:D

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on Sonic Unleashed Ineffectually Teases]]> Gah... way to ruin my hopes Sega. =/

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on EVE Online Gets New Faces, Places]]> Hey baby, you wanna see my spaceship?

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on Bird-Electron EZISON 0 is Chunky Portable Speaker Bliss, Almost]]> Does it also grate cheese?

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on High-Mag Microscope Lets Cellphones Go In Close]]> R2D2 called... he wants his pecker back.

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on 4000dpi Razer Lachesis Mouse Reviewed (Verdict: Great)]]> I have enough trouble tuning the sensitivity of my Diamondback (1600dpi). Often times, I have to use the lowest sensitivity possible in a game. With a 4000dpi mouse I'd likely have to turn the dpi down just so I could use it. Kinda defeats the purpose eh?

Not the mouse's fault mind you, but certain games don't take high dpi mice into account.

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on UT3 Sells 1 Million Copies, Better Late Than Never]]> I bought it and played it only once. Epic needs to get with the times and give us some decent netcode. Rocket monkeys won't notice a difference, but for hitscan players, having to lead your shots sucks. I'm sure it's great on LAN, but with the fast-paced gameplay even a 30ms ping suffers from lag.

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on Resident Evil Umbrella Chronicles Ships A Million]]> RE4 is my favorite Wii game so far, and it's a friggin GC port.

I don't go for this rail shooter crap though. More real RE games for the Wii please!

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on Soulcalibur IV Screens - Now With More Kilik!]]> I hated playing against Kilik when I was a noob. That stupid jab jab jab and over the edge I went, every damn time.

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on Experiencing Hyperreality, Mirror's Edge Impressions]]> Dude courier stuff sucks... I wanna keel something! Not run away like a little pussy.

And what's the dude holding in that screen shot... a microphone? Maybe your secret weapon is (bad) standup comedy.

Bah. (don't mind me, I'm just being pessimistic because I haven't had my coffee yet)

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on Wii Infested With Deadly Creatures]]> Damn, my skin is crawling now. I hope this game is good. The concept is great.

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented]]> Looks like the legs of a big dead spider to me.

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on Which Mobile Carrier Sucks the Most?]]> Verizon was the worst for me. I got no service in my home. I got no service at work (except in the restroom, go figure). The only place my phone consistently worked was outside.

T-mobile's been great to me though. I guess it largely depends on your area.

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on THQ Get A Little Chatty About Red Faction III]]> Screw RF, I want Freespace3! I never much cared for the RF games... the geomod tech was cool, but for an FPS it was subpar.

On the other hand I did like the sub levels in RF2. Volition should make an underwater game... go back to their Descent roots.

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on EVE Online Trial Available On Steam]]> Eve = Darwinism

It's not for casual players who are used to WoW holding their hand.

And PVE sucks. I play Eve cuz I like to KILL other people, steal their loot, and have my way with their corpses. The PVE is only filler.

Also, it's untrue that you can't compete this late in the game. I was killing players that were 3 years older than me when I was a 3 month old noob. Survival of the fittest, and specialization.

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on Rein Defends UTIII PC Sales, Crysis Too]]> Having played UT2k4 for about 3 years, I'm bitter about UT3. They ruined it. I'm hoping in the near future that mods will make the game worth buying.

Funny thing is, they probably would've sold more copies if they hadn't released the demo. It certainly changed my mind, and that of a few friends as well.

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on Writers' Strike Drives Viewers To Video Games]]> I haven't watched TV since about June last year and recently canceled my service.

I'd rather play games most of the time, and if I feel like chilling and watching a show, I'll just download the whole season. Commercials suck. Planning your schedule around a show sucks. Besides, torrents are free! :D

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on The Day (Well, Its Art) Looks Gorgeous]]> Beautiful artwork. Would love to have it in a higher res, esp. the fedex one.

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented]]> *drool*

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented]]> hubba hubba
I like that shirt.

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on Ubisoft Brings SoulCalibur To Europe This Summer]]> Awww fuck dat... I want Vader, but I own a 360. :(

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on Kansas to Colorado... and Home]]> You think that's bad... try from St. Louis to LA nonstop in 32 hours without a change of clothes, a toothbrush, or a shower along with 2 other adults and 2 children in the car constantly farting.

I think I might lay off them a bit too.

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on Cellphones Conquer Land Lines for First Time in 2007]]> I wonder how many like me have landlines but don't use em? I got one simply because it comes with DSL (cable sucks in my area). I don't have a phone hooked up though, because when I did I got sales calls all day.

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on Crysis and UT3 Suffer Rough November Launches]]> Epic lost a lot of their UT2003/UT2004 fanbase with UT3. It was a step forward in graphics and a step back in gameplay. Plus their netcode sucks for hitscan players. Rocket launcher touting bunny hopping noobs (which is the majority) won't notice a difference. I'll pass for now.

As for Crysis, it just needs too much hardware to run. Great game though (single player anyway) if you got the specs.

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on The EVE Online BOOT.INI Problem Explained]]> Funny... this incident is the first time I said "I'm glad I have Vista". :D

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on Auran On Life Support? [UPDATED]]]> This is one of the reasons I got out of the game industry.

Your studio releases one sub-par game and you're looking for another job... which using means moving halfway across the country or to another country entirely.

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on Pirates of the Burning Sea Open Beta]]> Shiver me timbers.

I hope this game is good.

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on "But I'm Not Japanese"]]> The presence of racism in supposedly "civilized" countries continues to surprise me. Though maybe I just give humanity too much credit. We're still mostly just animals acting on emotional, instinctive, and cultural influences.

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on New 2K Studio Formed By Ex-BioShock Devs]]> It wouldn't surprise me. There are a lot of slave-drivers in the game industry (been there, done that).

]]> <![CDATA[Kruel commented on MiniCopter Takes Off On The Wii]]> I want to like this game. I guess it really depends on how good the controls are with the wiimote and whether or not I can shoot small animals/children with it.

Also, ditto on the OptionPants OFF. :D
