So without further delay, allow me to present you Badoer's backyard, the semi-official F1Rejects Minecraft server. It runs on my own computer, and it will be on for almost all the time my computer is (normally about 08:00 UTC to 22:00 UTC). It's an entirely new level I generated just for this purpose, and I have no idea what it looks like. I'll try to pop in every now and then, but on some days I might not be there at all. I'll try to monitor the chat quite closely though, and probably even appoint a few extra moderators just in case somebody decides to stir up trouble.
The server IP address is 213.243.177.44:25565. The maximum player limit is set at four, to reduce lag. You can build and explore as much as you want, just don't grief.
Ooh I like the sound of this! I'll check it out this evening, username Crackers250!

It's a brilliant game, isn't it? It's a personal favourite of mine, it sold be completely on the RPG genre. You might be interested in The Sith Lords Restored Content Mod, which restores a lot of the content that was cut from the game in the rush to get it out the door. Which is a sadly common theme in Obsidian games.

Got Blur and Singularity both for about 5 quid - gaming magazines still tend to give full games out as an extra, and most of the time I don't buy them, but this one was a good deal.

Being a huge fan of this, I will give this a try as soon I am bothered with trying to make KOTOR 2 work on 7. And have a couple of hours away from Diablo 3.

I follow Pippa Mann on Facebook (or I 'like' her page, or whatever you call it) and she provided a link recently to this, IndyCar to feature in Grid:2. This WILL make me buy the game. Wishing there was a standalone version for PS3 in the European version, maybe with EuroSpeedway Lausitz and Rockingham (the UK one!) as well as Brands Hatch Indy and the Monza oval in it? Or am I hoping for too much? Time will tell...

Why stop at one Rockingham? Both the UK and US versions are pretty awesome.

Well, I was thinking of some European tracks that they could include, and the UK one is the one that I have actually been to as a spectator...

I have never joined a multiplayer server for precisely that reason. Provided there are no Joey Zylas around... I might just take a look round Badoer's Backyard.
I'm also planning to put together some racing suits for reject teams out of all the possible dyed leather armour. Here are the colour combinations:
Yellow, light green, and one of the shades of blue should, for instance, make a fine Forti race suit, from before Shannon took them over.

The IndyCar pack is only on Best Buy pre-orders, though. You won't be pleased.
Does anyone else on here play Kerbal Space Program? I bought it about a year ago for $18 dollars, and boy, was it worth the money. I think it's about $23 now, though...
I've embarked my space program on a goal to put unmanned landers on every planet and moon. I've already landed two on Mun and Minmus, as well as one on Duna (KSP's analogue to Mars), but I've still got a long way to go...

Never heard of that one. But I usually enjoy games with that kind of princible, so I might have a look. Oh, and welcome to the forum.

Well, I just revealed a dark secret that I own a copy of Action 52 for the NES. The game is terrible.......just terrible. I'm a collector who has quite a bit of a wall of NES games nearby in case you're wondering.

I think I previously mentioned that I own an original copy of E.T. for the Atari 2600. Unfortunately, I do not own an Atari 2600 at the moment, so I cannot attest to the crappiness of the game.

I do have that one as well. Haven't played it yet though. Anlike Action 52, E.T. is very, very easy to find. My local game store had almost a dozen copies. (I'm sure everyone knows the "New Mexico Cartrage Dump" urban legend.) Having a vast collection of NES games, it seems for every good game there was, they made about 2 or 3 bad ones. I've played quite a few of them, and some of them are rarely toutched because of how bad they are.

Being and old so-and-so, I've had E.T. since it came out. It's a bit frustrating when you fall into a well, get right to the top only to fall back in again (floating to the top uses your energy up, which is limited), but it's better than some Atari VCS (as it was known over here) games I've played. I wouldn't buy a console just to play it, but there's always emulators ... Just checked and it works on the emulator on my Android phone.
My brother wanted to play Harvest Moon: Back to Nature on my old PSP again, so I put the eboot back to the memory stick (I removed my PSX2PSP games to make space for GTPSP and Pro CFW installation). Trouble is, every time it boots, it hangs at Natsume logo, requiring the PSP to be powered off (I had to run Fast Recovery every time because of this). I tried using popsloader and running it on 3.xx pops rather than original from flash, but it still hangs at Natsume logo.

What the hell happened to Fifa? They are forgetting their roots. The sountracks nowadays are mostly awful. 1998 to 2001 was most definitely the Fifa franchise's golden era, five amazing games back to back (98 RTWC, 98 WC, 99, 2000, 2001), there were so many amazing songs. None of this indie rock nonsense, proper electronic, house and DnB tracks.
Fifa RTWC 1998 had a sensational sountrack. Because it was almost entirely composed by The Crystal Method. It had four of their songs; Now Is The Time, Keep Hope Alive, Busy Child and More. Also, Song 2 was the title track. Sweeeeet.
Volume II coming soon...

I'm just bored of FIFA and EA in general.
I'm picking Pro Evo up next year for a change...

Luckily for you, you can have custom playlists these days. It does come in handy.

Perhaps, but it is indicitive of modern video games that I yearn for the past rather than look forward to the future.
Speaking of which, I have the entire Gran Turismo 2 soundtrack loaded on to my Xbox 360

To be honest, it makes sense that they'd do that given that LucasArts hasn't made a decent game in years, though Star Wars 1313 looked pretty damn good. Hopefully they'll allow another developer to take that on, though.

And it has one of the, if not the, best soundtracks for a racing game.
Anyways, after Thanksgiving dinner I got a copy of Nascar Racing 2 50th Anniversary Special Edition. One of my childhood favourites, too bad unless I get smart with DosBox I will not be able to install it. Hopefully in the future I get a Windows XP tower of some sort (there are some good ones at my old high school) so I have a dedicated computer for games like NR2 and GTR2.
Just a quick question: Is Grand Prix Legends as editable as Grand Prix 2 is? If so, how does one go about doing so?

Just spent 16 quid on Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD, 13 for the game and 3 for the 3 map add on. Totally worth it, I might end up going back to my childhood where I played these games religiously. If you were a fan when the early games were out, definitely get these.
Steam users: Age of Empires II HD is for sale for £15. When I've got some money, I'm definitely getting it.

There's loads of mods out there for the game, so I'd imagine so. I've never downloaded any myself though, but a quick google of "Grand Prix Legends" mods (including the quote marks) will bring something up I'd imagine.
Ah, that looks brilliant. Thank you. One of these days, I am going to master the game, then (and only then), I might start an F1R Historics race series... Will likely be a few years away yet, though!
