I ignore the news, it's always rape, murder, war, scandal, famine, death or fiscal problems.

 

That's the dark zone of news I always ignore, though; I'm talking about obscure news.

I only watch the news for the weather :3

That's all the news I care about Then the TV goes over to game shows xD

[Revy ~ Two Hands 862]

The weather is an acceptable part of the news. I probably wouldn't even watch TV if there wasn't one around.

YouTube and occasionally forum posting is where my time goes. Although I haven't been active here in a while.

YouTube, forums, Twitch, Skype, and League of Legends for me when I'm on my laptop I don't have it with me for a week though :/

You guys are wimps. I never go on the computer. I'm always on my phone :3

Sounds good. For me it's some old games, my laptop is nearly 4 years old and I like pc games of the 90's and 2000's.

mlpforums doesn't have a proper mobile version and even if it did like most sites it'd look like garbage on a 4 inch screen.

Mobile is convenient but sucks for looking at websites.

 

Also whoever coded this site needs to sort out how posting in colour doesn't work half the time, I have to go back and re-edit my posts so that they are in purple.

 

I am gamer twilight my posts need to be in purple all the time!

Started playing Sin Gold on my laptop. Just got it from gog.com. It seems decent not amazing it's like the missing link between build engine games like Duke Nukem 3d, Shadow Warrior, and Blood and more modern games like Unreal Tournament.

 

Any of y'all play old first person shooter games?

Old FPS games... Only one I played that counts as old and isn't TF2 is Call of Duty 3 on the PS2 :L

 

Well... That I can remember, that is...

I'm talking before aim down sights and regenerating health. 

Like properly old early 3d accelleration or even '2.5d' games.

 

...I'm old.

[Electrobolt 2,069]

Ah, so games like Doom, then? Then no :x

Or when it was easier to play without a mouse, or prior to mouse support.

I just realised that one of my favourite Dutch songs is a cover of an Italian song... We need to go deeper.

Quake was the last game you could play without a mouse but the experience would have been crap. Any 3d accelerated fps requires a mouse. Even Doom had full mouse support.

Late 90's are my favourites. You can only play so much doom before you get sick of it.

You just have to see this vidya dawg, dey got sum mad hook-ups, amirite?

Yeah, but I found Doom much easier to play without one. I remember it not working out so well with Dark Forces either.

There're a lot of games that can be played without a mouse.

Even Doom,who had mouse support,could be perfectly played without a mouse(and I play it withou a mouse )

Dark Forces is too perfectly playable without mouse,

I have Dark Forces on my PC,and i',ve found it more comfortable to play without mouse(I don't know how the others will feel)

I've just binded my Attack buttin to Ctrl,and all the game can be played without mouse

Oh yeah I prefer doom and all the 2.5d shooters without a mouse. I use the WADS to move and the arrow keys to turn. In multiplayer though a mouse is a must for doom, you need god like twitch reflexes to win a match and anything but a mouse won't cut it.

We should have some kind of retro shooter deathmatch at some point I have all the classics on GOG or steam. Obviously a lot of them don't have servers anymore at least not official ones, but games like doom have source ports you can play multiplayer in and unreal tournament suprisingly still has servers. I've been trying to get together bronies to game against for about a year now to little success. Doesn't help I tend to play old stuff.

I've spent the past 45 minutes learning the most basic of the basics for programming in python so I'm off to drink some hard cider. 

Catch y'all at a later point.

Well,UT and Doom are still great games for Multiplayer.

They doesn't have things like regenerations and so,so when you have critic health,you have to be. very careful(But,surpringsly,i love that adverse conditions )

Yep I still play a bit of doom multiplayer on rare occasion. I would UT as well, but wow those guys have skill.

I mean I can finish middle or maybe even top on a doom deathmatch and bare in mind I average 2 deathmatches per month like 10 minutes of game time.   

 

But In UT they will tear you apart. They have the best players I've ever come across, it's also why I avoid the UT servers, might be fun with some pony folk though. I'm decent at multiplayer, but not pro so I could game against regular players and provide a challenge but to a point that it's still a game and not a situation of trying to stay alive for long enough to enjoy yourself.   

 

You can add me on steam if you like. Word of warning though I hate anyone who steam chats with me at random. I'm a gamer only on steam, If I want to chat or whatever I'll go on a forum.

Unrelated to anything: everything time I see that banner on this forum mentioning 'come to SASS' I think it means the variant of CSS3.
