LOL This is why you are the man, Andrew.

Sadly, as much as I would seriously love to attend VGL on my birthday in Cincinnati (where my brother happens to live close to as well), this is in direct conflict with the Pixicon/Zircitricks wedding. But I will surely be there in spirit!

Seriously, it's cool if you guys aren't down with it. I can tweak it later. You don't have to throw the ol' *dont move* up on the thread.

What a terribly offensive and immature thing to say about the people who have made a statement here. Shame on you for your childish name-calling.

pretty cool stuff; thanks for the heads up!

Clearly, you've never seen this man's capoiera skills.

I have a respectable WIP finally. BTW, I'm doing Final Battle part 1 from Donkey Kong Gameboy. Is there any place in particular you want the WIP-age, bro?

There are so many people that I respect and appreciate on this site, and Chris is one of the standouts even among those. He manages to gain more and more of my respect and attention everytime I hear or read anything that pertains to him. Great interview, I found it to be extremely enlightening, and this is an AWESOME remix. At first, I thought my interface had exploded (or was about to), but then the awesome drops, and it just blew my mind. Chris, I salute you. Also, you're probably the only person who can roundhouse Chuck Norris.

well poop. So I can't use the excuse "but this was't *arranged* per se, it was made up on the spot" can I?

seconded. this is probably the cheesiest game I have ever played, but it is AWESOME.

seriously, why do you post here?

I'm not sure I know of a plugin that is exclusively traditional Irish instruments, you'd probably be just as well off looking at any all-world/ethnic encompassing instrument, like East West RA or Motu Ethno. Or even something like NI Kontakt 3 has a few world instruments in it. Be forewarned, though, fiddles aren't the easiest sound to pull off and still sound authentic.

rooooooofl

Ouch, that's harsh. Also, did you happen to read about what the lyrics are from, what they're citing? FF7 wasn't exactly the most "chipper" game, ya know

Indeed man, kudos. Updated the list.

Yes, but in spirit only.

Again, this is the epitome of being spoiled. I know you said you're not, but your statement says otherwise. First of all, that's a horrible case of paranoia, and unfortunately I can't counter that type of extremism with any sort of logic. I'm not saying that there's never any risk of that, only that I highly doubt that this is Valve's true intent. Why have you and everyone else on that side of the conversation completely failed to address the parallels that have been drawn to Halo/Unreal/etc? Was Halo 2/UT2004 not also "fundamentally the same experience" as their respective prequels? NJ already said that new levels, a few new weapons, new characters, and tweaked gameplay do not count. Please, someone address this now.

I didn't ovelook that. See "It seriously boils down to this: You want L4D2 to be an expansion to L4D1, and preferably a free one." I would also. But I don't get the impression that this is NJ's core issue at all. And if it is, it still goes back to the premise that we're all spoiled because Valve was good enough to release anything for free at all.

hearing these words from you made me lol.

THEN SHUT UP AND DON'T BUY IT THEN. Or wait for it to go on sale. Your argument remains completely preposterous. Again, it's based on this whole concept of (false) entitlement that you have. If Valve creates a product, they are obligated to set the price and terms of release to whatever they want (or need), NOT whatever YOU want. If you do not agree with the value they've placed on their product, then don't get it, simple as that. How is that complicated? It seriously boils down to this: You want L4D2 to be an expansion to L4D1, and preferably a free one. But it's not, and you're throwing a tantrum about it, and you're not going to stop until everyone agrees with you that it should be a free/cheap expansion because you're used to getting free stuff from the same company for another game you like better.
