Cogs is damn good for what is just a tile puzzle. I really like it- mainly because it's the only one in that Bundle I can play (shitty compy) or have any desire too. =X
My steam tag is TheQu420, BTW. Shoulda posted that before.

Though with the last update's bigass laser bazookas the style guide's pretty much out of the window anyway
TF2 blog's Aerosmith post is pretty funny

My Reaction The Machina: Eh, I still haven't made the Bazaar Bargain and I have shit pinpoint accuracy, so I suck with the Sniper. The whole tracer rounds thing reminds me of Metroid Prime Hunters'... Trace's... oh, that lazor beam sniper weapon (bad memory is bad), it gave away position, especially to other snipers. The Diamondback: Not a bad idea, I've always like crits obtained through specific means (Frontier Justice), and it doesn't even downgrade the ammo count (yet). Still going to keep the Enforcer, though. That little thing has saved me quite a few times. Can't burn me if I'm in not in your flamethrower's range, can ya Pyro!? Oh, is that your Flare Gun? Now you see me... now you don't!Purity Fist: Oh, well that looks cool, I wonder what it does-*looks at the description* Wait... what? Oh, I've no interest in you now, even The Machina has higher priority than you. My G.R.U. laughs uncontrollably in your face. The Widowmaker and The Short Circuit: OMFG Engie weapons! *pelvic thrust* HYES, HYES... *cough cough* ok... so, Metal is the new Ammo (I'm actually quite surprised that hasn't been the central point in an other new set of Engie weapons, [sarcasm]but with Valve constantly spewing out new Engie updates, it was hard to find the right moment for it, no?[/sarcasm]) and these new weapons stink of AgroEngie. The only thing that worries me is spy checking with these weapons and if the Engie will still be able to build and upgrade now that he replaced his mecha hand with a pew pew gun. I mean, when I decide to go the Gunslinger-Frontier Jusice Engie, I still make a Teleporter for my team. Of course, no where does it state that the Engie will loose those abilities... I guess the animations will just be different if he equips the Short Circuit. I look forward to personally testing these weapons and subsequentially await and get accustomed to the nerfs/buffs they'll give them after a few days. Final Opinion: Fucking finally Engie gets some love (if ya can't tell, Engie's my favorite class, pardner). I guess I'm going to have to buy some backpack expanders soon, I do love how my backpack is organized. And at least they ain't Soldier weapons (who happens to be my 2nd favorite class)... I mean, seriously, 3 new Rocket Launchers (including The Original, the Quake themed Rocket Launcher that basically a reskin... I hate reskins, except the Frying Pan) over the course of a few months? GTFO, I still love my Black Box (though there was a time in which I was infidel with the Liberty Launcher). Though the Righteous Bison is still awesome. ... *looks at the size of the post* God, am I nerdy... |

Selling TF Party Hat for 2 Refined. *derpface*
And yes... Machina is quite popular due to its positives and its negatives aren't that bad at all. And it's surprising how many people don't know how to pronounce "Machina".

Looks like Penny Arcade Adventures Episode 3 will actually get made . . . but not by Hothead Games, instead it will be a 2D RPG by Zeboyd Games (creators of Breath of Death VII and Cthulth Save the World).
I was SOOOO tempted to originally write this post as "Episode 3 is finally coming!! . . ." and leave it at that and make you all think it was HL2: Episode 3

EDIT: Just an error. I know most of it us got it last year for free but it looks like Portal (1) is free again!
store.steampowered.com/app/400/
People think it may be because of this . . . Also Minecraft 1.8 is out, found a villiage last night, pretty nice. |

The 3rd annual Scream Fortress update has begun!EDIT: Played a few hours of the update, it's pretty good. - Nice fun, powerful ranged boss, that can plow through both teams. Has a visible health bar. Killing it gives you a achievement. - The "portal" to the underworld it leaves behind is pretty awesome, (just run to the white gate like object as fast a you can, otherwise ur will bleed to death) when you pop out the other side you will have temp uber, kritzs and overheal. - When it finally dies, it leaves another colored portal (the bombincom) where you race up to a little shrine thingy and you can wait for book to become available, when you jump into, you can get the 2nd achievement. Though you can just kill each other when your there . . . - Tons of people are going as Scouts. The portals, left behind can be in the air, meaning you to jump high into them (I'm been rocket jumping as a soilder into them) The portals would be better if they would just stay on the ground. - Only servers registered with Valve, have gift drops.
