Steam Weekend Sale 
Is the entire half-life / Half-Life 2 series of games for 66% off.

They are also selling the individual titles at a reduced price, for example Episode 2 is a whopping 3 pounds!

(So fucking buy it Shambler, you cunt!) 
Yes 
 
Shambler 
Play Versus, ffs! It's not deathmatch. 
Still Working On My Coag3 Map 
Added 1000 brushes in the last few days for only 2seconds free fall XD 
 
I did some log file mining and counted downloads of the files at Quaddicted for August 2008 to July 2009. Bots, spiders and other things should be eliminated. These numbers are much lower than I thought, heh. They seem valid, I manually checked 2 (yeah, proper science).

You can check graphs at http://www.quaddicted.com/reviews/graphs/filename.png
For example:

So 
PS3 Slim for $299 this September.




Does anyone care? 
 
Would be nice if they applied some of that slimming technology to the price. Jaysus... 
Well 
They did drop it from $399 to $299, but yeah, it's still a bit much for a system with no games I really want that I can't get on PC or XBox anyway. 
 
To be fair, that's getting within "Hmm, maybe" territory. It's got some games that I want. Hmm... 
Watching And Reading A Lot Of Blender Tutorials 
...and there is some really impressive stuff like this:

About Damn Time 
that's about what the PS2 cost when it was first released.

So how did they get it smaller, a Cell die-shrink I'd guess?

Usually they do it by making the power supply an external unit. And eliminating empty air space so that it's hotter inside. 
This 
Hmm 
Pretty much what metl said (afaictfr), altho surely removing the PSU will allieviate some of the heat issues anyways... 
Zwiffle 
yes it is very usefull site some tuts are on both sites though.

Quaddicted will have its 5th birthday in October (I count my "Quakeblog" days towards it). Any good unconventional ideas for

* Any kind of contest (no mapping, unless really different from anything before)
* Riddles (in that case please send a mail)
* Send quake shaped cookies to me
* Collect thousands of dollars to buy a Quake license to give it away for free

or something like that? 
Birthday Hack Contest 
 
Birthday Code Something For Quakeinjector Contest 
 
Btw 
work has been going on, a lot of restructuring and cleanup, just not all of the features that i want to have before the next release. 
Birthday Logo Contest 
 
Birthday Get Drunk Contest 
 
Birthday Quakeinjector ICON Contenst
