Scott Pilgrim: Video Game Screenshot Gallery

Attractmo.edu has some screenshots of the upcomming Scott Pilgrim game available.

It appears to be epic.

Diablo 2: 1.13 Patch Released!

Remember how Diablo II is the best game, ever? Well, it just got bester! The Diablo 1.13 Patch was released on March 23, 2010 and, man, it totally adds some minor and insignificant changes to the game! So those of you who, like me, have been keeping your Realm characters from expiring by logging in every 3 months totally need to go download this patch in order to do the super-awesome things the patch allows!

Patch Notes!!!

Here are the aspects of 1.13 which, to me, seem important:

- Respecialization is now possible! Completing the 'Den of Evil' quest will now additionally reward 1 free respec which can be saved. Players who have already completed this quest should receive 1 free respec in Hell difficulty.

- Support for blit scaling in windowed mode. The game can now be maximized to the largest 4:3 resolution supported (hooray widescreen users).

- Added new command line parameter '-nofixaspect' which allows users to not fix the aspect ratio to 4:3 when maximizing in windowed mode. This lets the game 'stretch' to fill your monitor.

So, yeah. You may now respec a character and the game looks slightly less shitty when played on a widescreen monitor resolution.

...

Totally worth the wait!

Update after having used the new -nofixaspect parameter:
Oh fuck this noise. It just stretches the regular windowed mode out to fit the widescreen monitor resolution...except it fucks up the mouse accuracy because where the mouse is gets stretched as well.

So this is a fucking retarded thing to utilize.

Ege02: Rape is not Physically Painful

This probably will not make sense to most of you, but every now and then I get nostalgic for PA threads of yesteryear. So I am making this post in order to simplify that search process when next I feel compelled to find the remnants of this particular thread.

You see, back around 2006 or 2007 the PA forums switched to vBulletin, and so all of the threads / posts made before then were lost. And one of the most treasured and magnificent threads was on the topic of rape, wherein Ege02 posted perhaps the most idiotic argument ever posted on the PA forums. You see, Ege02 was arguing that "rape is not physically painful" and, well, I'll just let you read it for yourself as it exists forever encapsulated in this animated .gif:





The conversation has since been turned into a short film, of sorts:



If I ever find that thread on some obscure website I will post it here. But for now this post shall simply serve as a storage location for the .gif and the link to the movie.

God damned Ege02 was a fucking tard.

I am not endorsing his argument, as that would be moronic, and I do not think this necessarily funny. It mostly serves as a reminder of how stupid forum conversations can get and how idiotic Ege was.
