    I actually had that going for a while! But then Monster Hunter Tri came out and uh...I kinda became addicted?

    Set 11 - Part 01
    Set 11 - Part 02

    Again some audio sync troubles at the end. I don't get it. I might have to reinstall my sound drivers or something,we'll see.

    I didn't even notice any audio lag in the last sets. Huh.
    You use the FRAPS Stereo Mix for the audio, don't you?
    I guess you could either a) try to edit the lag out, b) record the audio via audio recording software like Audacity and THEN edit it (it's easier because you won't have to extract the audio from the video first or whatever), or c) ignore it. Your call ;) Of course, that whole re-installing business could work also. You didn't install any additional hardware or anything lately, did you?

    Its a pity this game didn't come out at a better time or get some more polish- some parts of it seem really inspired- the weapon design (Best. Flamethrower. Ever.) and the premise is pretty cool, but the execution is a little off. It could have been so much more than it is. Really is fun to watch someone else watch it, though.

    I didn't think it was possible, but the exploding tipped crossbow is no longer the best weapon in this game. Whoever designed the weapons for this game deserves a medal.

    Yeah, I have to hand it to the devs, the flamethrower is one sweet piece of weaponry. It's really disappointing that the game didn't sell enough to warrant a sequel.

    Man, it's like they compared notes with the guys from Painkiller to make these guns.

    Some good laughs in this set. The "It burns, it burns!" in slow-motion was priceless. As was the crotch assault.

    I'll echo some things that have been said in that these weapons really are fantastic, and were well-thought out in regards to the time mechanic, at least. The things that could've been done with just a little bit more vision and dev time. Oh well. It's very very entertaining to watch at least.

    And it seems that the new cod is using the exploding crossbow. Maybe someone at treyarch played this.

    Don't forget, Half-Life: Deathmatch had a crossbow that shot exploding bolts.

    Klyka, you missed an ammo box by the truck that you hid in on the plant floor. I know its too late to get it now, but those things usually seem to appear around trucks, so keep an eye out!

    Wow. Next set looks like it's going to start off in a rather fun way.

    I had flashbacks to 'Attack of the Clones' during that set. If only the heroes of that film had had the decency to get squashed for our entertainment.

    Anyway, I shall look forward to the big Kaboom in the next set. At least I hope there'll be a big Kaboom next set. If there isn't, then I shall be very, very disappointed.

    The radar truly is a godsend given the amount of enemies the game throws at you. D:

    Can you imagine fighting those time-shifters without a radar? Carnage.

    There should be an option to turn off the radar...

    I think the devs finally decided to throw in some more plot. Man, it's been so long since we had any of that in this game that I don't remember whether we've seen that chick before or not.

    Ah well, who cares.

    And yeah, I thought that laser corridor looked oddly familiar. Didn't think you'd get through it in one go though. I was hoping your time-juice would run out just before you reached the end. :twisted:

    Looking forward to the next set.

    Finally got to catch up. Man, that Lightning gun was kind of disappointing once you got a hold of it. Just a really powerful tazer, I guess.

    I wonder if all these vehicles and such for the next level mean a return of

    dun dun dun

    TimeQuad!

    (In drivable form, I mean, since we already saw -a- quad that you shot at.)

    Were you singing the Ukraine Eurovision song throughout that?

    Also, apparently, there is a scripting error, and the rebel boss will complain even if you use timepowers to finish these levels as fast as humanly possible. Heck, he'll complain even if you finish them as fast as superhumanly possible, if you use time powers all the time. If you listen to his other diaglogue, he is actually kinda polite, it's just that he's been accidentaly scripted to berate you every 30 seconds.

    Okay, when you said "My biggest fan," I was thinking like...
    "The Adoring Fan," from Oblivion.

    Got to give the bad guys credit. They know how to build a helicopter. I lost track of how many missiles you punted into it before it finally exploded?

    And damn was that wind tunnel nasty.
