  • I'll put it there so I don't have to argue that the crowd isn't full of people stuck on layovers.

  • You know what, if the Circle is owned by the airport then you've got me in regards to it being owned by the airport. However the terminals are across the street, the Circle is open to simply walk into from the street.

    To get to the Circle from the airport terminals you must take your bags and can not reenter. Nobody in the photo stuck on a layover is here unless they are willing to leave the airport and go through security again.

    There were locals because as soon as the game ended, they dispersed down the street and also I took the picture while being invited by locals to watch.

  • Mmm Hmm

  • If it’s right across the street, why are there signs pointing to the different terminals in the building

    I don't know what you think you're seeing, but the airport is on the other side of the street.

    Now I’m kinda glad it’s mostly just a bunch of travelers waiting at an airport that would otherwise miss the game

    It isn't a bunch of people inside an airport, it's across the street from the airport. These are locals watching.

  • A very fine box
  • They like sharing spots.

    Games where an emulated console version outclasses the PC port?
  • The console and PC versions of Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter are entirely different games, and personally I think the console version is more fun. It emulatable.

  • F-14 Tomcat in vertical flight
  • The introduction of jet engines outpaced things like viable advanced night optics, and viable guided missiles. It created this strange intermediate period in aviation where the engines were suped up, but the doctrine and use was still basically the same as WW2, but faster.

  • It would take a lot to get OG Fallout lead Tim Cain to return to the series: 'The very first question out of my mouth is 'What's new about it?''
  • Tim Cain is a creative guy. I would rather he spend his time developing new things rather than revisiting old.

    I personally want a Fallout 1 remaster/remake, but I don't see what value is added by Tim Cain being part of it. He already gave his input, somebody else can riff on it. (You know, hypothetically, since God Howard has declared his holy rays will never illuminate a remaster).

  • "In fact, let me take a few pages to describe how much I can't describe this"
  • Lovecraft's stuff has that reputation, but on a listen through his works, he had a tendency to actually be properly descriptive when it was appropriate. I think it's a case of later, lesser writers gloming onto to making things indescribable as a lazy crutch that made the reputation of the mythos like that.

    I think only 'The Unnamable' by Lovecraft really goes incredibly vague at a point where it should be describing the creature, but that story feels like a joke about this exact topic.

  • "In fact, let me take a few pages to describe how much I can't describe this"
  • Michael Shea's mythos stuff is pretty good I think. 'Demiurge' is a book collecting all his stories. He updates them to the then contemporary 1980s, keeping the elements of cosmic horror but putting them in more modern and relatable situations rather than attempting to make them period pieces.

  • "In fact, let me take a few pages to describe how much I can't describe this"
  • Tom Clancy has entered the chat and has started describing a submarine engine. Please help.

  • Star Wars: Bounty Hunter is being remastered this August, and it will let you play as Boba Fett
  • Yes, it's a 3rd person action game with a jetpack solidly part of Jango's kit.

    The M10 Booker isn't a smaller M1 Abrams, it's meant to be used in a fundamentally different role than that of a main battle tank, which we breakdown in detail in our latest feature video.

  • Thanks. For a strong and warm yellow, I've found painting a very bright orange underneath first to do the trick. The internet keeps recommending pink, but I've not found that to work. Orange, then yellow in a few layers, then orange wash gently drawn to the recesses, then a gentle cleanup with yellow to get the wash looking right.
