Bob the Hamster would make a great mascot. He was incorporated into Hamster Wheel in a rather adorable fashion, so I imagine he'll fit in here. With credit to James of course. When I wrote that paragraph on the last page, I was imagining Bob occupying a cozy little hobbit-hole, lying on a red couch ...

I like "Hamster Burrow" as a title. It evokes a warm and comfy mindset, like an invitation to visit one of the lesser-known independent gaming communities and partake of its unique flavors of games. We don't have a whole lot, and there's a significant amount of dirt in this burrow that may...

Okay, I'm back, and I've established a much safer route that anyone can easily take to the Starlight Stronghold whenever they want. If you reference the points on the online map , this map will take you right to it, almost entirely on rails or on lit pathways. Eventually I hope to make a dedicated r...

I plan to erect a few more guideposts to make navigation to the Starlight Stronghold easier, in lieu of a railway. http://i.imgur.com/nt63D.png IMAGE 2: My beautiful thread http://i.somethingawful.com/forumsystem/emoticons/...

I am not in love with the idea... We can be funny for other reasons, please? I'm with James on this one. I'm suspicious that all this attention we've been giving the spammers is making them think "Yes! Finally, a forum that doesn't delete our threads or ban us immediately! Let's get everyone i...

Minceraft LPs almost never go well anyway

Hoo boy, public servers. My friend is hooked on them for the competition and ranked leveling systems they sometimes have, but it's never gone well for me. I had quite a bit of difficulty finding basic resources and defending myself against simple zombies. I had a hard time communicating with my frie...

Vampiducki wrote a pretty damn good article in Hamsterspeak 63 about how the NES handled graphics, bringing up the topics of palettes, sprites, and tiles. And this is catered towards OHR users who want to do an 8-bit graphical style for their games - just like you! The tail end of the article also h...

I get it, tickets are expensive. Let's move on.

I'm working on a larger review, there's a ton to say about it. I can't wait to hear your thoughts on it! Will it be going up on your Surlaw Reviews blog? From the looks of things, I really need to give this topic more time. I started this thread the day after I saw Wreck-It Ralph and was super exci...

Admission was seven dollars for me

You're greatly exaggerating those prices. [s]It's not expensive to see a movie in theaters if you don't bother with any concessions or 3D gimmick-glasses.[/s] Maybe it is expensive, now that I think about it. My apologies. I know the marketing team focused a whole lot on the video game character cam...

Well, I was hoping this thread would open up a discussion about Wreck-It Ralph. Are you guys seriously implying that you've never seen this image and have no idea what movie I'm talking about? You know, the 52nd entry in the Disney Animated Canon which is about video games?! I'm honestly surprised n...

Oh-ho, don't I know it. It is exponentially worse for people who have shaky internet connections. Every time the internet shorts out, even for a second, the stream stops in its tracks, and you gotta reload the video, commercial and all. This can lead to literal hours spent reloading, searching throu...
