Good show. I watched the Irrational and Remedy episodes. Reminded me of the (

Thank you for sharing that. Too bad they haven't added new videos for two years. :(

Just chiming in to support Tribes Vengeance as an excellent SP game. Fantastic story. One of few times I've been forced into a fight that I desperately didn't want to win.

What struck me about these videos was all the companies going belly-up around Irrational, and they managed to squeak through and keep living to make another game. They've made good games, but looking at it in context you can't help but feel they were more than a little lucky too, getting a hit or an out just when they need it. That is, I don't know if you can take many lessons from their story aside from: keep your standards high and pray for rain.

Or that punctuality is as important as quality, something 99.9% of those working in creative fields don't understand.

That was pretty decent, if let down just a little bit by inferring that SWAT2 was a FPS, and the narrator's fairly horrid mispronunciation of Canberra. I'm a little curious as to how factual some of those statements were, though; I'm sure at least a couple of comments conflicted with other accounts I've heard0 (but I wouldn't know which version was correct).
Tribes Vengeance is, for the most part, great fun as a single-player game. The jet-packing and skiing really is brilliant. A few of the missions were sub-par, but I still recommend the game to shooter fans (and doubly-so if you like games with jet-packs :)

The latest ADaoB conflicts with SHTUP. Why would that be? Because of SHEMP?
Anyway, which mod should be overridden?
Always install SHTUP first so mods with custom textures will override it.
