You edited your post just before I hit post on mine :P
Before it was just the first paragraph that didn't mention the rest.

Dante read the article, they forced a legitimate author off of Amazon because his books say Space Marine in them.
That isn't protecting assets, thats being an enormous pile of asshole.

OH GOD almost got party wiped!  my guys were around lvl 18 and fought a team galactic scientist who had a lvl 20 Kadabra and he one hit almost my entire team!  Got a few small hits in but finally Death the Kadabra used disable to remove his only damaging move (yeah kind of a dick but it was that or total party wipe!) and finished him off so now DEATH is a lvl 20 Kadabra!

Ah.  I listen to some EDM but most I dislike so I guess I'm pretty ignorant of that stuff, most of what I listen to doesn't have lyrics.

Somehow CKY managed to avoid actual fame.  It isn't like they tried, their promo videos were the predecessor to what would become Jackass.
I'm sure everyone knows of Bam Margera from Jackass, well his brother, Jess Margera, is the drummer of CKY.

CKY is awesome.  Kind of metal with some synth, but also grungy rock, nothing too fierce and really really hard to describe.

Personally I think the biggest reason CKY stayed small, was due to their sound being so hard to explain, the fan following was surely dedicated as hell, and pretty decent size, but never came close to mainstream.

This track off of I.D.R. was probably the most popular:
<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LhpnSMRLSSs" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LhpnSMRLSSs</a>

Their live shows were nuts too!  (actual song starts at 1:16)  This one's more metal compared to the first track, but still got that synthy hook in there.
<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vH3aC68QtA8" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vH3aC68QtA8</a>

Sadly they are broken up right now, hopefully they resolve their differences and rejoin someday!  They went through a lot of bassists, but Deron Chad and Jess were a killer team of guys.

I had no interest in the mod due to seeing the shit inventory, and all the warnings about hackers.
But the standalone looks good, I might have to play it.

Dante, Warhammer came out in the 80s/90s, the term Space Marine has been in use since LONG before that, see article below.  Also, are you saying that Unreal or Halo are ripoffs of Warhammer?  They both featured space marines and came after Warhammer, but are nothing like it!  :P

General Gaming Talk / New "Slender" game, could this be the next Amnesia?
« on: February 10, 2013, 04:57:13 PM »
So I played the original, free, short Slender game.  It wasn't a great game, but it does freak people the eff out, me included.
Why?  Because you are so powerless against your foe.  Like in Amnesia, all you can do is run and hide.

So now they are making a real game, not just a fancy tech demo, with plenty of help this time.

I think it has potential to be close to what Amnesia was.  Thoughts?

Next is one of my favorite underground band from the late 80's early 90's, The Melvins.

Fun fact: Kurt Cobain auditioned to be the drummer for The Melvins in the mid-80's, but got too nervous and completely choked.  (He played drums before taking up guitar)
Imagine how different the musical world would be if they had Kurt Cobain on drums instead of Dale Crover, so that Kurt never started Nirvana with Chris Novoselic!

These guys are kinda grungy with some 70s metal thrown in, really fun 3-piece band who just rock out.
<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hp5r9qwqpPc" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hp5r9qwqpPc</a>

They also pioneered a genre called "Sludge" which is very distorted and very very slow tempo. 
The fun story is that they started slowing down their songs at live shows wayyyy down to piss off the harcore punk kids who kept yelling at them to play faster.  How slow you ask? 
Check out Hag Me, one of their slowest songs.  Vocals don't even come in until 1:30.
