no I'm from Australia but did visit Vietnam and Cambodia for a holiday a few years back so was just curious as to whether you got about or not and what you checked out.
I much preferred Hanoi to Saigon personally, actually most of the north to the south, but that shouldnt stop you from checking it out.
Halong Bay was definitely cool, did you get to see the floating villages? And Kayak in that amazing looking water with all those limestone islands?
If you do go back, I highly recommend a few days up in Sapa, great little place easily accessible by train from Hanoi.
Also, I didnt get to Laos but you should alos go to Cambodia if possible, by boat along the Mekon (6 hrs) from Chau Doc to Phenom Pheng would be my recommendation, beats the bus anyday!

Yeah, I did kayaking in Halong Bay, under the caves and stuff, and swimming - we got a really basic boat that didn't have a working shower, so in the morning instead of rolling out of bed and onto the deck, I climbed out the window from the bed and just fell into the sea. It was the perfect way to wake up. And yeah, the floating villages were cool, we had dinner in one of them.
I meant to do Sapa, but I was a bit pressed for time at that point, and the 8.5-hour overnight train sounded a bit gruelling. Definately next time though :}
Cambodia and Thailand are definately on my list too.
Finally finished playing Fear and it's first expansion (I played it a tiny bit way back when but never actually sat down and played the whole thing).
I'm having a really hard time thinking of another game that squanders so much potential, and gives such an intense feeling that the developers didn't truly understand what they were making or for that matter what made it fun.
FEAR

combat was fun, rest was meh? That's how I remember it anyway.
Kinn,
great story! ALso, the train ride is not bad, except that the carriages are designed for midgets so you dont get much sleep really.

finished and I liked it, despite numerous frustrating fights because all the combat in the game is based around the cover mode. I think it would have been better if ti was mixed up a bit with standard shooter combat and cover combat.
Looks wise its obviously quite detailed but apart from Chapter 3, none of it felt memorable. I think its because every nook and cranny and area is equally detailed, lessening the impact of set piece visuals a fair bit.
Risen 2 Demo.

Any config files I can edit to allow Mouse1 rebinding?? Or are Pirahana Bytes going deliberately for the "no chance of sale" option??

shittest performance ever. Tried a number of different settings but I barely get 5 FPS no matter what.

What specs? I was tempted to get it the other day on Steam but I hesitated because my machine is about 3 years old now. What are you working with?

A short free horror game in the vein of Amnesia and Penumbra. You have to find eight manuscript pages scattered throughout a dark forest while being chased by a mysterious man.

The link reminded me I should replay Yahtzee's Chzo series - which is somewhat Lone Survivorish btw.

Like yours, not exactly new but this is the first game I have had this much trouble with. 5 FPS is ridiculous.

Anyone got this? And if so, can you check to see if you can rebind keys as follows:
Forward: L Mouse
Backward: R Mouse
Attack 1: #
Attack 2: [
And in general rebind all keys??
Ta, X

and I'm not downloading 11gb of game to check :D But off the top of my head, you can rebind keys. I used a 360 pad though, much easier to play that way!
And Err

I did google, but couldn't find any indication that you could rebind MOUSE keys...
