Ugh now I wanna play Sims 3 so bad. My friend mixed it in with his games when we left college -_-

Already pisses me off that I can't put stuff on an angle :kc:

boolProp allow45DegreeAngleOfRotation true
(possibly case sensitive)

I think you have to use the ,. keys to make it work though

I once pirated the entirety of The Sims 3. Every expansion pack, every stuff pack.

My laptop disagreed with this and promptly overheated within ten seconds of booting it.

(Also, Peggle is free on Origin right now as well, and that game is pretty good for mindlessly killing time.)

Why would you ever think I can play a game like the Sims on my laptop

Because I can.

The base game anyway.

Install it on your brother's laptop

God fucking dammit, I'm unhealthily addicted to this again. It's like I'm 16 all over again.

I'm playing a day or two with each household in Pleasantview before cycling onto the next to make up for the lack of universal aging. Once I get all the teens up to like a day before aging to adult, I move them all to college and put them in the same dorm. 8-person household dorms are the best.

The only things that bug me right now are the huge spaces for items and the awful, awful routing issues. I forgot how terrible that was in this game. Guy was playing fetch with a dog near the sidewalk and someone had to go to work. Instead of going around him to get to the car, they just stamped their feet for an hour because they insisted on going straight down it.

I should look for mods but I'm lazy.

...I've been getting back into Animal Crossing: New Leaf.

Played some X-com enemy unknown after getting it in a humble bundle. I like it. Still hate Cryssalids. Lost on my first try. Pretty standard x-com play through

end of the month, get your games with gold downloaded.

Big Game of August: Dishonored for Free on Xbox 360 the second half of the month.

I've been playing The Sims 2 and I've been able to leave my family alone for twenty minutes without bad things happening except maybe the dog starving itself.

The older games are crazy! The newer one is pretty fun as well, holds up with the series. Updated graphics, kill cam and some new nice features. Still makes you pretty mad after losing as well.

My only problem with it is enemies coming into play when you see them. It makes all the difference if you see the enemies on the first character action (then you have your 4-5 other guys yet to do anything and can shoot at the enemies) or if your last character sees them and they all move into cover and then shoot you to pieces. I think the alien AI should act right away. Surely the aliens where aware of the huge spaceship that just landed about 200 feet from them!


After I lost that x-com save I started playing Spec Ops: The Line. On chapter 9 now. Very good shooter with a great story. Some of the controls are a bit eh but it doesnt bother you much. Very different from the mainstream shooters. Dont want to spoil anything but you will see, totally recommend it. 2K make some good games!
