Hey guys, I'm Hootie. I become aware of JMM's work on a near-dead forum for a 15 year old game called 'Incubation'. From what I understand, we both had a sudden wave of nostalgia for the game, found the site through some google-fu, and signed up, where we had to go through a 3-month or so approval process (The moderator was no doubt some old guy living in the middle of the woods in rural Czechoslovakia, with only a server-bank to keep him warm at night). Anyways, I'm mostly a PC gamer, only consoles I ever owned was a N64 and a Playstation 2, both of which I enjoyed greatly, but I've always preferred the PC platform (even though some of my favourite recent PC games have been ported over from consoles!) My favourite games would probably have to be Fallout 2, Baldur's Gate 2 and X-com UFO defense. But these days I'm really happy to play anything, from eyecandy shooters to grid-based dungeon crawls, I just love videogames! If you want to add me on steam, can do so here -> steamcommunity.com/id/hootie00/

I'm actually downloading X-com enemy unknown as I type this, looking forward to it. From what I've heard, it's not nearly as complex as the first games, but nonetheless still a respectable and very fun title. That's all I can hope for really (I'm gonna take a wild guess and predict that there are no more blasters, those things were just too overpowered)

Good morning, afternoon, evening, or night, as the case may be. I'm Silent Sputnik on X360 and I took part in the PD community for quite awhile on the forums and online. I eventually lost most of my interest in PD after figuring out the speedrunning isn't as competitive as on the N64 due to the inconsistent control stick strafe speeds. Also, I got really addicted to Quake as a competitive FPD, haha! I still help out a lot of people when they need advice regarding how to beat levels or get certain crowns, etc.

I just realized I haven't done an introduction yet...Hello I'm George Lawrence and I like to review movies. My Youtube channel is called lenrat productions and I have recorded 2 reviews (only one has been uploaded due to copyright issues with 20th century fox...which is a shame because the one that is uploaded isn't that good).
I like to play games too. mostly PC but I dabble with the xbox360 and PS3 from time to time. I play a lot of strategy games, namely age of empires and the total war series. my favorite game is legend of zelda ocarina of time which I couldn't find a flaw with even if I really tried. well...a water temple may came to mind but nobody's perfect.
I don't have a favorite film but I believe that if i keep reviewing films I'll eventually find a favorite. my favorite vegetable is cucumber my favorite decade is the 20's my favorite medieval weapon is the bec de corbin my favorite disease is cholera my favorite method of execution is hanging my least favorite period of history is the reign of oliver cromwell my favorite book is game of thrones my favorite animal is a camel and I'm rather partial to Turkish delight oh and one day I hope to be a film director and make a movie about the Russian revolution.

The water temple I find is only frustrating the first time... It's annoying enough to really stick in your head after that so you'll always know where to go and what to do in it after that (At least, that's how I see it =p)

I never played the other one so I dont know what a blaster is but there are some VERY hard enemys and levels P.S. dont play it online it stinks just enjoy the single player. Well I just finished the game last night (Classic Mode) Was certainly challenging and fun as hell. I'm actually quite impressed with the ways they revamped the game play, made for a simpler, but also tighter experience. By the way, the blaster was a rocket launcher you developed using alien technology in the original game. It was hilariously gamebreaking, you could basically just create waypointed paths for the missle to take (could go through the interior maze of a ufo no problem) and would explode with dramatic force. The radius could basically utterly destroy half the hull of a small UFO. It was hilariously fun, but once you got them, the game was pretty much over, so glad they didn't have them in Enemy Unknown :3 Gonna see if I have any chance of tackling impossible mode now!

You really should post up your video here, that is kind of the idea behind this forum yeah favorite may have been a poor choice of words. It's more like "interested in". they're a weird things to be interested in, a disease and a method of execution, and since between them they seemed to decimate the population of London I believe they deserve a certain place in my brain...you know the place that laughed when bamby's mum died (yeah that was kind of creepy)...as for videos I've got a review of alien being recorded as we speak. I was messing around with windows movie maker and produced a small trailer for the upcoming video. give it a watch If you like
