New Saxton Hale comic. Go see.

EDIT: Oh holy tits polycount is out and you can buy hats. What is going on.

Remember r_aspectratio? You used to be able to fool around with it in order to basically increase your FoV. Then Valve patched it…in typical Valve fashion. There’s an easy workaround that lets you view a lot more than you should. All you need is to set -w and -h on launch, preferably through a shortcut. Oh, and use -windowed -noborder while you’re at it.

I’ve known about it for a few months but I don’t really use it. It can get pretty damn disorienting when you play with a really abnormal window shape. Hey Gabe, after you fix this, could we please get a max FoV limit increase? I’m sure there’s a lot of people out there who’d like to play 120 degree fishbowl style.

Meanwhile, Jazzman’s finished Dance Fortress. If you don’t know his name, you surely must’ve seen those smoothly animated drafts being posted around everywhere.

I don’t know about you, but I’m loving how the L4D comic is turning out. Part three’s already up, and the final part is coming around in about a week.

Guess I should’ve posted this earlier when it was PM’d to me as an xfire vid, but I was a bit too focused on finding a bed to lay down on at that time. Someone’s made a Saxton Hale arena mod, which is kind of like Juggernaut if you’ve played the few other games that had that game mode. I think there was a similar man-vs-team mod a while back, but I can’t remember it’s name.

A lot of people want EP3 out, but generally well known people wouldn’t do something like this. Stay classy and keep pluggin’ that Fable, Mollie.

Back from whatever, was expecting a polycount update. Well, so much for that.

Things are starting to get interesting in the L4D comic. The second part‘s already up.

Not much else to say, have a video.

Official L4D comic up. Jesus christ does Bill look weird.

Nine minute video of Portal 2′s coop over here. Not that new but I didn’t have much time for things lately. The first half of this month was and still is hectic, so I’ll be taking another short pause while I keep falling down all these exams.

Valve’s promising three big surprises within the next 12 months. Of course, they refused to give out any details that would even hint to what those surprises may be. But wait, since it’s supposed to surprise us, that means it’s not supposed to be Episode 3. Well, I guess I’m waiting to be surprised then.

On the other hand, Gabe has said said they’re working with biometrics in order to… do fancy unspecified things. I’m just hoping it doesn’t turn into some wii-fangled accessory that monitors your heart rate or something. They have said they’re trying to come up with a lightweight noninvasive method of gathering data like this, but I just want my HL2EP3. And the polycount update.
