It’s not what it sounds like. Team Fortress 2 is one of the finest first person shooters ever made, a perfect blend of art style, balance, gameplay variety, design… I love it and it’s gotten tons of well deserved recognition. Gang Garrison is this wonderful retro take on TF2, reimagining the gameplay as a 2d side scrolling game harkening back to the aesthetics of roughly the early eighties. More than anything it looks like a commodore 64 game. Everything you expect from TF2 is there – the classes, the interplay between them, the fundamental mechanics, but all playing out on a wonderfully retro 2d stage. Check it out, it’s free, windows only, runs on pretty much any hardware, and is more fun than you might expect to play. A video to illustrate:

If you don’t trust Mastenbrook’s info you can read up on the issue over on secunia as well.
I’ve had innumerable conversations with my friends about why I’ve stuck with my Sony XBR960 CRTV television (ie tube-based television), a model that’s often called the last great tube-based tv, despite it being only 32″ in this age of 46 and 52″ televisions. I stumbled across an exhaustively researched post that explains why I’ve stuck with my CRT which is better than anything I could write
I used Abit motherboards for years – for quite a stretch they were the best enthusiast motherboards you could buy. The linux box running this website ran on an
