Just to update you on the Nostalgia issue.
I have received permission to host all the media. I will create something soon and post it on the site.
Looking realllllllllllly forward to that Phillip. I loved HL Nostalgia.
Emanuel said “best dynamics”.
@TF2 and the training mode: I agree, PC gamers can now whipe out MAC people :D
As for the training mode, everybody gets it, right?
Mac vs. PCs? regardless on how many MACs join in, there will always be more PCs. And more experienced. So, PC 4tw!
@Episode PS3
Valve is a PC gaming company. No point in killing yourselves over that. You will get it on the PC.
Yea Herr, I’m not too concerned about the Mac environment… the way I see it it just means more people play valve games and that’s important.
Gabes cousins daughters wife? yes.
Thank God for Patrick and his proper pronunciation of ‘foliage’.
Was thrilled to have the pleasure of listening to both Patrick and Bluefire on the same occasion with this weeks P17. Am a tiny bit bias in that they are both very good friends of mine, but they are both so because of their fantastic humour. I’d love to hear Blue on here as a regular again (as well as Patrick ofc :P). Fantastic episode this week, very much enjoyed! :D
I particularly enjoyed P17 this week, hope to hear Bluefire as a regular presenter on the show
I wish I could hear Blue and Fox on a regular basis.
[...] a small devoted team talking about the Steam/Valve/Half-Life universe every week. You can listen to Nicolas trying to speak in English from 00:56:00 to 01:28:00 (yeah, that’s 32 painful minutes). Finally, there might be [...]
Well I think Nick makes an exellent addition to the team and maybe you guys should consider him as a more prominent character. One more vote for says me. And its nice to be back listening to you guys and in the community. just upgraded my pc so Caboose is back to stay ;)
I would also like to see Bluefire become a more regular co-host.
And he totally didn’t threaten to boot me off In Development if I didn’t comment.
No threats were involved in the posting of the previous comment.
That was pretty interesting. I think Bluefire should be a full time host!
Yep, bluefire is just enough gay to be an official host, let him be please!
Bluefire can be a host right after he finishes the Dement coding for ID :)
