i lost 75lb so far on the 'workout 3 times a week for 30ish min and don't eat fast food for lunch and stop drinking so much soda retard' diet. i don't eat entire pizzas anymore and being under 200 lb again is really its own reward.

i lost 20+ on the "eat better and run a lot" diet

its only been a few months though

i think i need to hit some dumb poo poo like 140 (i am 157 right now) to be "a good BMI" and that just sounds dumb. i want to look not fat then im good.

The Police Quest guy wants to make a new first-person Police Quest

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/precinctgame/precinct

If you didn't play the original it was a Sierra point-n-clicker where instead of loving you over by having items you had to pick up at the beginning of the game and keep for hours, it forced you to follow proper police procedure to the letter or (usually) die.

Was kinda cool in the day; like having to be careful where you pulled someone over, had to approach the car right, had to follow legal procedure to get permission to search it, etc. otherwise it came back to bite you on the rear end. Like, if you forgot to search a perp after arresting them they could pull a knife/gun and kill you and so on.

dunno if I'd really wanna play a cop now though

one time joe arpaio and steven seagal pulled up to this guy's house. he was suspected of cockfighting. so steven seagal drove a tank into his living room and then they shot his golden retriever. he wasn't charged with anything. Arizowneda

seriously though the police quest games were sweet and I can't wait for them to go more than 25% off on steam. king's quest too.

was it the king's quest games where you'd get 98% of the way through the game and then get stuck because you didn't pick up some useless object hidden in the first screen?

quote:

Back when I got started, which sounds like ancient history, back then the demographics of people who were into computer games, was totally different, in my opinion, then they are today. Back then, computers were more expensive, which made them more exclusive to people who were maybe at a certain income level, or education level. So the people that played computer games 15 years ago were that type of person. They probably didn't watch television as much, and the instant gratification era hadn't quite grown the way it has lately. I think in the last 5 or 6 years, the demographics have really changed, now this is my opinion, because computers are less expensive so more people can afford them. More "average" people now feel they should own one.

really want to ask her if she feels the increasing internet usage by "urban demographics" may be responsible and the main issue is not just this demographics' "lower income" but their "culture" is "sufficiently different" they don't understand the games on the same level...

Did you know I was personally responsible for SA's rise in popularity in the 00's? It's true! Just come to the Farms and find out how! It's the trash kingdom I deserve.

jonathan blow is the other type of terrible indie dev. not terrible in the "my code is perfect" edward mcmillen way, but rather in the "everything i touch is art i am an artistic genius" way

Just watched Indie Game: The Movie - the part where they showed Jonathan Blow watching the Soulja Boy video about Braid was hilarious. Every other part of the movie was a little too stressful for me to enjoy. Love where Phil Fish threatens to murder his former partner on camera and then doubles down on that threat later in his rant.

One particularly sombre section, for example, sees Jonathan Blow recall his depression following the release of Braid, a depression caused by the belief that people were failing to appreciate his artistic intentions in the game’s otherwise-glowing reviews. The whole segment is bookended by clips from that cringe-inducing video of Soulja Boy playing the game, which, coupled with Guthrie’s dip into the melancholy, is enough to place you in the exact mindset necessary to relate to Blow’s woes.
