Re: Test your Brain

I get the same issue with Britannica, though, which merely states it's a Jinn associated with Ifrit. Wikipedia articles have a wider range for error, it's true, but nowhere on the page for Marid does it have a reference, which is the point you're contesting. I understand it can be considered a probl...

Re: Class based multiplayer mod concept/standard MP concept

Maybe some Aliens vs Predator influenced modes, where you have a couple of powerful players up against a handful of less powerful, but cooperative players.

Re: Best/Worst game endings

Borderlands was another example like Fable 2 or Oblivion. Fucking brilliant game all the way through and then you get to the end and it's like "...oh." Fable 2 = not a brilliant game all the way through. Fable 2 = almost a brilliant game, at some point in it, but only if you buy the colle...

Re: Best/Worst game endings

I actually hated the ending for Arkam Asylum. Building up the story only to drop a henchmen fest in at the end kind of killed it for me. It wasn't as bad as Poison Ivy, but as far as end of game designs go it was pretty boring. I liked the ending to KoToRII, when you found out you were Revan, that w...

I'm writing a game at the moment where your character actually breaks out of the fourth wall in the first chapter, and you play the rest of the game outside it's own engine.

It eventually ends when you crash your own hardware.

Re: Test your Brain

Only if what the general population thinks is fact is actually a fact ... You can't reference 'the general population's opinion', and wikipedia might be editable by anyone but it still requires academic back up . When it comes to things that aren't fully accepted as fact, wikipedophiles tend to do ...

Awesome ossom?

I have no words to explain how much you killed that by not paying attention to the early iterations.

Edit: I had a reiteration I was going to do after work, but I refer you to the above statement.

Re: Test your Brain

To be fair, in an investigation reported by Nature, Wikipedia came close to the Encylopedia Britannica in terms of accuracy. I think the thing to consider is, as time goes on Wikipedia has a genuine chance of becoming more and more accurate in the important established articles, and is specifically ...
