Re: Game Design: Schools and Courses?
[ QUOTE ] What in the hell are you arsewads going on about? He never said anything about his ideas or any of that, he said he wants to get a career as a game designer. Nothing wrong with that.

Re: Tacticool Unreal Tournament Weapons
Thanks for the feedback. I built regular models of these before the sculpts. You're definitely right about how it'd be easier to make changes down the line if I just did it all regularly but this was actually my first try at sculpting on weapons and I wanted to try something different. At least I learned something though!… -

It's next to useless establishing anything like a… -
Re: Is PC gaming dying?
JK: I dunno, that reeks of PC fanboyism. Claiming that console games aren't as good as PC games and lack replay value is pure ignorance. Do you even own a recent console? That "we don't get as many games but we get the best" excuse is the same one Nintendo fanboys use to defend the GC's small lineup. Fact is all of them… -
