My ordinary jokes are usually these kind of jokes. But some more jokes that I had heard wouldn't hurt.

"Oh no! I got bit by a radioactive chicken! I will have the super powers of a chicken, but I will never be able to fly again!"

I was really wondering when these Turkish "adaption" movies would get mentioned in this thread I find those movies ashaming.

The videos look neat
I actually prefer writing for my blogpage than making video blogs; but I had recorded some journal intended videos while I was in holiday to take photos for my game (which was using photos as backgrounds and I gave up developing). They were in English -not my mothertongue-, I was intending to broadcast that journal videos on net after releasing that game (in order to prepare a Making Of ... stuff).
I think I will upload them anyway...

[after getting shot 6-7 times with gun]

I had a chance to see Battle Royale yesterday night.

Well, I do not think it is The Greatest Movie Ever Made, but was still good enough to disturb me (in a good way). It could be a much better movie if it was more 'believable'. In 'believabity', I don't mean the fictional BR act,

Spoiler

but the school kids who can still survive enough to fight and have some last words after getting shot 6-7 times with gun (I don't even mention the teacher getting shot with a machine gun, and then goes to answer his cell phone and eats a cookie for the last time). I mean, even if you shoot a kid once even to their legs/stomach, don't they fall and pass over?
This may sound like an unsignificant detail, but it ruined the whole reality of the movie for me, I felt like I was watching a computer game.
On the other hand, as Esper stated, the reactions and the acts of the students were so real and shocking.
I really felt sorry for the nerd students who succeeded to hack into the island system and were about to blow the main building of BR with explosives (and we witnessed the Japanese intelligence once again   ). I wish I could stop that crazy guy before he killed them, I would really love to see that scientific boys survive and escape the island. (THE GEEK SHALL INHERIT THE WORLD!).

Oh, by the way, had anyone else thought of making a game of this BR concept after watching the movie?

I totally agree with Aurion and Esper.

Please allow me to use this term: Violence porn.
I had watched Saw II,III and Hostel. These movies had 'words'; "What can a human do to survive?" and "What if someone, who regards other people as pleasury objects, turns into another pleasury object in a different way?" (the guys had gone to that place to have fun with hot chicks, but they ended up finding theirselves on torture chairs).
But let's be honest. Was the most of the audience be able to see these words? Did these movies really intend to show us these messages? I think no.
I admit I enjoyed much watching these movies in theater, so did my friends (and the other audience), and it was because of the fact that we watched them as 'violence porn'. I wasn't shocked at all after getting out of the theater; I was drinking some wine with joy in a bar after watching Saw III.

But I could never say the same things for Audition.
Thing that really shocked me was not the torture scene in the final. How everything could turn into these mess, and how both Asami and Shigeharu STILL loved each other. I couldn't fix my mind for a while after seeing Audition. (maybe it is also because of the fact that I had an online love relationship with a Filipino girl that just looks like the actress playing as Asami; yes, I know how Japan and Philipines are different, but this didn't change the fact that I regarded Asami as her and myself as Shigeharu during the movie [and I need to note that my online girlfriend was intending to marry me and saying things like "Love me. Only love me", this still chills me out]). *cough* The reason why I would want to put Audition to another category with Saw series or Hostel is that the way how the story was told.

Now I feel curious about Battle Royale; going to see it as soon as possible.

P.S: I think "The 3 Extremes" (I hope I typed correct) should be mentioned in the Asian horror movies category , too.

It gives "The url contained a malformed video id." error.

EDIT: For some reason the forum is editing the url for txt style spelling. Just copy and past the url and change the 'are' to a normal 'r'. Thanks

Oh, my mistake...
I watched the video now. Really nice work The sepia tone fits into the video perfectly; and the whole video goes so well with the song.

It gives "The url contained a malformed video id." error.

Was it a Commodore 64 game? I remember such a game exists; but I couldn't remember its name.

I hate saying this; but guess I am not so different from him. "Self-mutilation" and "getting drunk occasionally" are not  things that I don't do (I really have no intention to tell the reasons).

However; after the teenage, I have always been trying to avoid being an annoying emo-kid. I even left writing my personal blog page just because I cannot think of something else but sadness (and I knew my friends used to get sad when they read about my self-mutilation, etc.). I do not have rights to make them sad, especially my problems are things that they can't solve.

I don't know what to offer him or you to do. Group activities would usually work, but he refuses these.

(And yes, usually the prostitutes are not the solutions in these cases.)

Edit: I also agree with Helm.
Even though my situation seems like that guy, I had never told (and would never) my that girl friend these kind of things. His intentions might be bad.

Happy birthday, Ralph!

[offtopic]I am sooo drunk today, too (but for such different reasons). Let it be counted as we celebrated your birthday [/offtopic]

If you want to mean "being able to control multiple characters" by "multiplay" and "being able to talk with the NPC's with a text box" by "chat"; let me say AGS can do them. But if you want them to be internet relayed things; then you would have to find an adventure game engine supporting TCP/IP (and it would be a hard search, as there is no such an engine I know for now).

Hehe, no.. Not something about kids.
I decided to tell. I think I'm a biastophil. I don't want to explain further...

Edit: No, I have NEVER committed it, and will never. But it is the only thought that gives me arrousal.

Actually I would love to share my darkest fantasies here.. But I'm not sure how your reactions would be. No, it is definetely not something about AGS, any AGS member or anyone else I met on internet.  It is not pedophilia, neither.

Some dark photograph/photomanipulation art where I was the model (and also who the artist was me ^^; ) .

(I think it still looks too obvious, but let me clarify: I still have blue eyes; the brown eyes and the grey hair are photomanipulation)
These are some other shots without manipulation.

Wow.. Addictive game, indeed... I could stand till the 35th level.

Opeth/Morningrise is my current favourite.

(Shouldn't this topic be in Popular Threads, by the way?)

6 Days A Why The Hell We Don't Wait The Release of the Game and See The Game's Name?

My first completed game was made in about 3-4 weeks. (I don't want to give its name; it was such a sucking game.)
My most serious game project, Lost In The Nightmare, was completed in about 1-1,5 year.

But I made Are We There Yet? 2 shorter than 4-5 hours ( http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/games.php?action=detail&id=768 ).

Will it have Trillby? Or will it take place in the future like 7 days?

It seems like the game takes place in 'past'. Probably some events about the idol or/and the Tall Man.

The ideas do sound interesting; but as said before, they are REALLY too hard to succeed (especially the mech part).
