Puzzles are common in daily life, whether it be trying to find a way to remember where you left your keys, or trying to get your computer to work again without having a professional or someone who knows what they're doing do it.  It would only be right to have puzzles in a game.  You wouldn't want the character to just go through the game without thinking would you?  That would take away the game aspect of it.

Edit: Puzzles should have a point.  Going to several different rooms and performing several different tasks just to open a door shouldn't be used.

While we're on CD errors:

Is there a way around the "Cycle Redundency Error" I get when copying files off a DVD disc I just burned?  I can open the drive, view the files and open the files, but I can't copy them onto my hard drive.  It can't be the DVD; it's brand new and undamaged.

.

The mask started to fall off, it seems.

Edit: The original.

You have a PC, right?  Why not just play it on that like the rest of us?  Chris would have to get a license to the XBox's documentation/compiler thingus anyway, or something.  If he could get the stuff for free, I'd love to get a copy for myself.

You could always learn the structure of SCI and create your own program to do it, like most of us have done.

I guess not many have.  Chris made an SCI font viewing program way before or during AC, I think.  I've made some SCI1/SCIV VIEW and PICTURE viewers/rippers using documentation from the FreeSCI and Brian's websites.  It's not very hard, I'd recommend you all give it a try just for fun.  It's easy to do it in VB.NET, if you want to try.

I'm starting to love Linux and Unix.

Bashing something displays your dislike for it.  But, as MrColossal said, it will always result in people shoving their love and hatred for the thing in question down your throat which could have been easily averted by just shutting your big fat trap.  

Isn't most movie editing done on macs?

Don't mess with it.  It's a blessing in disguise.  Go take a walk through the cemetary, breathe the fetid air and eat some brains.

Were one Phil Roberts lay, another surely resides.  Don't celebrate yet, for the next annoying prick may be waiting for us to put our guard down.

Yes!  Everyone over to the Quantum Physics topic, pronto!

Ha.  Oompa Loompas.  Now I need to rent Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.  I hope you're happy, you f*cking shore patrol...person!

Debate #1: Helm vs. AGA
Debate #2: Helm vs. Las Naranjas
Debate #3: Robert Eric vs. m0ds (My favorite one )
Debate #4: Ghormak vs. The Masked Avenger (Listen to find who it is)

Turn your computer off, unplug everything from it, open a window, bring it over to the window, and heave it out the window.  Then, put on your shoes, go outside, and take a deep breath.  Or, go to Microsoft's website and look for help.

Ahem, as the winner of Everyone's Favorite Newbie 2001, I feel inclined to give my opinion on the matter.  Actually was it '01 or '02?


Here's my advice for those new to AGS:
1.  Find a couple of respected people to get in good with (ie: Helm, Colossal) You can pretty much tie your name to these people through the AGS whiteboard, if you want.  I insist, do NOT go to IRC to make friends. Those people are all either bots or AGS mongering whores!

AGS mongering whores?  How dare you.  N00b!  wtf lol RTFM

Edit: One small thing...I haven't used AGS in years.

Because you're all too damn impatient.

AGA, it's now tomorrow, and I'm not Jewish.  Hurray.
