Yesterday's movie quote was from The Game, a (kind of) confusing movie. Plus I don't like Sean Penn. Anyway... the first in with the correct quote was PeeWee, second was Tex Arcana and third was Draggor. Ok, now for today's quote!

TrixieMoo, the Chaos Scheduling Queen, is back with some more schedules games! Tonight and tomorrow at 9pm EST (6pm PST) on the server 75.84.59.55 . Now, even though (aparently) Diablo 3 comes out tomorrow, remember: Quake 2 Chaos is more awesome!

If you're needed a copy of the Q2 Chaos mod (autodownloading can take awhile for the whole thing) then there'a a few places you can get it. Planet Quake has a base and patch (and maps) for Chaos. You can also download the latest base (1.11 and the 1.12 patch) from Chaotic Dreams site. Map files are a separate download.

CORRECTION: Time is 9pm EST/6PST. Sorry!

Sorry for the lateness, I had someone coming to pick up my car to replace some shocks & a bearing so I needed to stay upstairs to hand them the keys. Now, I'm back baby!

Yesterday's movie quote was from Dark City. I thought that movie was pretty good, Jennifer Connelly was, as usual, a joy to see on screen! :D The first in with the correct answer was Tex Arcana and the second was Draggor. All righty, now on to today's quote!

Sure was a nice weekend out there, wasn't it? Well, maybe not everywhere. Here it was nice but my wife didn't feel good so we couldn't do much anyway. Also, now that Castle is done for the season we don't know what we'll do on Monday nights! I could try and convince her to play some Quake but that normally fails.

Ok, so here's this week's movie quote. Ready? Go!

Theme: _ * _ _ _ ' _ * _ _ _ * _ _ _ * _ _ _ _

Yesterday's movie quote was from Kung Fo Hustle. The first one with the currect answer was Tex Arcana and the second was Draggor. PeeWee got the theme at the end: “Kung Foo over bullets”. So let's look at those scores:

First place: Draggor with 11
Second place: Tex Arcana with 8
Third place: PeeWee with 6

PeeWee had the creator of the Quake 2 mod WOD-X write up it's history for Planet Quake. The guy behind it is a big Quake 2 multiplayer fan, especially a fan of the original mod Weapons of Destruction (he made the eXtream version of the mod). You can read the history of the mod right here on Planet Quake!

The last thing I really really like about SS3 is it's ability to scale graphically. At first I let it autoconfigure my system but I still had stutters. That drove me nuts. I eventually went in to tweak my graphics settings and found, like Doom 3, you can tweak quite a bit of stuff. I ended up setting my resolution down a decent amount but upping the AA and it looked great. It reminds me how with Doom 3 you could run it at 800x600 with AA and, it would run better then 1024x768 and look just as good and play smoother.

Yesterday's movie quote was from Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. I never did see that movie but I always wanted to. The first one in with the correct answer was Tex Arcana, second was Draggor and third was Zombiegoat. Now, on with today's quote!

_ _ n g * _ o _ * _ v e _ * _ u l _ e t s

Quote: Don't get me wrong! I only want to kill you, or be killed by you.

Well, my wife and I are feeling better today. I slept in, that's why I'm about an hour and a half late. Yesterday because I felt horrible I didn't say another reason why I like Serious Sam 3, so here's another: the “invisible walls”. In most games you either have an invisible wall or lots of debris (or fence or something) to stop you from going beyond a certain point. Serious Sam 3 has the debris with some invisible walls (why can I climb pile here but not there? Invisible walls!) but in the deserts it has the coooooolest thing: A giant sand monster that comes out of the ground and eats you! It just doesn't eat you either, it eats anything that comes along it's path! The bad part is you can't run infinitely in a direction in the desert but that's not necessarily a bad thing.

Ok, quote time! The quote was from The Matrix and it WAS pretty easy. I remember seeing that movie in college, it still amazes me. One excellent movie! The first person in was PeeWee, second was Draggor and third was Zombiegoat. Now on to today's quote!

_ _ _ g * _ o _ * _ v e _ * _ u l _ e t _

Quote: I would rather be a ghost drifting by your side as a condemned soul than enter heaven without you

Sorry about being late with the quote, my wife's really sick and I was up most of the night, then I'm taking care of the babies while she doesn't puke. I'm typing this while I'm in the basement grabbing a can of roof tar before I head to town to get some Coke or 7-Up. I'll cut straight to the movie quote.

Yesterday's quote was from Cradle 2 the Grave. Draggor got it first and Tex Arcana got it second. No guesses on the theme yet. Here's today's quote.

_ _ _ g * _ o _ * _ v _ _ * _ _ l _ _ t _

Quote: You're cuter than I thought. I can see why she likes you.

In case you didn't know, I got Serious Sam 3 last week and I listed things I didn't like about it. This week I'm listing things I do like about it. One thing I really like about it is the HUGE battles. There's one part I found pretty bad in terms of a battle & level design, but for the most part it's awesome. I started on Hard and ended up replaying on Normal (not because I wanted to) and I can tell a difference, but man, do they throw everything at you some times. It's quite enjoyable and stressful at the same time!

All right, yesterday's movie quote was from Police Story. A very cool Jackie Chan movie, one that get me really interested in his older movies. The only person who got the answer correct was Draggor. Ok, now on to today's quote!

_ _ _ _ * _ _ _ * _ v _ _ * _ _ l _ _ t _

Quote: How many times do I have to tell you people! I'm a businessman, make me an offer!

So what's to like about Serious Sam 3: the cover system! The cover is all destructible. You can hide behind something & it can get blown up, whittles down by bullets, etc. It's awesome! You can be standing behind a wall and have it start crumbling around you! Sadly, building themselves aren't destructible, but pretty much everything else it. It's very very very cool.

Ok, movie quote. New week, new theme, are ya ready?

Ok, last thing I don't like about SS3. The reloading of the machinegun. You didn't reload the tommy gun. Reloading an AR/machinegun (whichever it is) is way to CoD-ish to me (not knocking CoD, I like the CoD games). Sam isn't meant to reload the machinegun, it's meant to fore less rounds per minute then the minigun and kill lots and lots of stuff. While I like the phrase “NO COVER. ALL MAN”, having the machinegun reload normally forces you to get under some kind of cover, not because you're being overwhelmed but because you can't do anything for about three second. So that's the last thing I don't like about SS3. Monday I'll start on what I do like and let me assume you, what I don't like dwarfed by what I DO like, so I still say the game is defiantly worth it (I'm “The Happy Friar” if you're ever wanting to play a Steam game of SS3, DNF or Steel Storm).

Ok, time to finish the movie quotes. Yesterday's quote was from Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, an obvious Egypt theme. The first in with the correct answer was Tex Arcana and the second was Draggor. So let's get those totals up!

TIE FOR FIRST!
Tex Arcana with 12
PeeWee with 12
Second: Draggor with 8

Another thing I don't like about Serious Sam 3 (and I just found this out yesterday, it's really make me mad): a limited number of saves. I was so far then I let my son play a new game. I figured “No big deal, it will overwrite my autosaves at worst but I did make a quicksave” (previous Sam games didn't overwrite any saves). Well, it overwrites everything except a normal, 100% manual save, so all my progress is lost! Yes, I can load up a previous/current map & start from there (it lets you start from any previous map you completed) but I lost my score progress and I lost any secret weapons I picked up and, because of my complaint yesterday, it's now pretty hard when I don't have a cannon ball to take out some of those really tough instant hit guys! ARGH!!!!!

Ok, quote time: yesterday's quote was from The Ten Commandments. When looking for movies taking place in Mesopotamia that was the one I thought people might know. PeeWee with the first one in and Draggor was the second. No third. Now for the final quote!

Quote: Oh, my goodness, I'm in the car with you. You're not alone!

TrixieMoo's got some more Chaos goodness for all you awesome Quake 2 players out there! Tonight and tomorrow are two scheduled games at 9pm EST (6 PST) for all you saw blade loving decapitators! Or you black hole throwers, fake deathers, etc. If you've never played Chaos for Quake 2 you're in for a treat: The name describes it all, you're given several different deadly weapons with alternate ammos, funky powerups and even a jetpack. It's an original experience and one of the most popular Quake 2 mods out there!

Ok, I've got another complaint about SS3. It's the same complaint I had about SS2: instant hit weapon baddies that always hit. In SS2 there were shotgun toting stock broker zombies that, when they fire always hit you. It wasn't very fun that the only time they would miss is if something was between you two or if they fired when you went behind cover. In SS3 there’s a shotgun guy, an assault rifle guy and the scorpions. Once they fire they track you dead on and can hit you ay any distance (minus spread). In SS1 the scorpions had instant hit weapons (and SS2) but they didn't dead on track you so you could escape them. It's an annoyance to get hit by something far enough away you can't see it.

Ok, now movie quote time! The movie was Dragon Heart. We only had two right answers and the first person in was Tex Arcana and the second was Draggor. PeeWee sent in a wrong answer but he did get the theme: Serious Sam was Here. That's right, he's been in Egypt, Central America (Mayan Empire) and medevil times! The next two movies are locations he's been to! Guess on!

Quote: You will come to me whenever I call you,and I will enjoy that very much.

So here's one complaint about Serious Same 3: No Netty. I grew to love that voice in Serious Sam 2 and it was the highlight of playing that game to me. No Netty talking is disappointing. Yeah, it's a prequel but who cares, it's Sam!

Ok, quote time. Yesterday's quote was from Apocalypto. Never saw it but it does fit the theme perfectly. The first in was PeeWee, second was Tex Arcana and third was Draggor. Now on to today's quote!

Theme: S _ _ _ _ u s * S _ m * _ _ s * _ _ r _

Quote: Only you could keep such a good brain under such a bad hat!
