Night of the Giant Crab
Are you messin with me Wals? In the US, king crab is one of the best crabs you can eat, closely followed (IMO) with blue crab and stone crab. Obviously they dont bring the entire crab to your table. Nobody eats the body and the legs are broken down to about 18" lengths. Im really surprised its not popular overseas. What type of crab is offered in typical English restaurants?

OCD gaming
I used to do something similar while playing the BG series. If even one character in my party died during a battle I would reload and try again until everyone made it through. I must have fought the Firkragg and Staff of the Magi fights dozens of times before everyone lived. That makes perfect sense. Unless you are not talking about party members who were permadead. Not just chunked players, all player death. Since you didnt get experience if you were face down on the dungeon floor, I was worried that the eventual accumulation of exp loss would cause some party members to fall behind.

1) Bring a pot of water to a vigorous boil. 2) Drop crabs in. 3) When crabs turn red, they are done. 4) Melt a stick of butter for dipping sauce. 5) Crack shells and enjoy.

Sorry to hear that. Whenever you're ready to unburden yourself were here to listen.- RANDOM VIDEO GAME NEWS THREAD!
On digital distribution platforms (like Steam) keys are proof of ownership. So buying a steam cd-key amounts to buying a game. You just register it on your account and then can download the game from provided servers. Huh. Im honestly shocked that Steam doesnt have a master list of keys or some way of knowing that fraudulent keys are being used. They're not fraudulent. They buy the boxed version of the game, scan in the key and sell it. So its one-to-one or they buy a boxed version and sell that one key over and over? If its the former, I dont see a problem, but why would anyone buy a boxed copy then sell the key for cheaper than the boxed copy?- RANDOM VIDEO GAME NEWS THREAD!

I must be missing some key point regarding keys. Arent keys those long codes you have to enter when installing a piece of software? If so, how does buying a key do anything? Dont you still need the software or is that included with the purchase of the key?- What you did today

Very cool. As an aside, on the eurogamer link, there is an advertisement for DSIII offering the physical copy for one price and the downloaded copy for less. I dont know which country the ad comes from but is that a common practice in Europe?- What are you playing now?
Theres something Im curious about in SWTOR. I was watching a recent 10 minute demo of a level 50 raid and at the beginning it showed the characters being briefed on the misssion and having the ability to reply to the NPC. In a raid, who controls the reply? It cant possibly be 10/25 individuals each answering so is it the raid leader that makes all responses?- What you did today
