I'm on a recent Metroid kick, and I just remembered that Samus in Metroid Prime is voiced by Jennifer Hale.  Who also, more famously, voiced Shepard from Mass Effect.

Now I'm wondering how to make "Samus Shepard" in Mass Effect, and what class she'd even be.  Soldier?  Engineer?  Infiltrator? ... Adept/Vanguard?

I found the Id Gallery in Quake 2, then the pool room. Oh merciful god why.

My vote's for Engineer.

Edit: how the fuck did I miss N7 day. I am ashamed of myself.

Quake 2 was a great game, and I'll fight anybody who thinks different.

Oh, I love it. It's just the Tank Pimp caught me off guard.

Yeah, that was a fun easter egg. I remember from reading "Masters of Doom" that there was some logic behind what they put there to represent each team member. Been ages since I read it so I don't really remember it but it's a great book i recommend everybody read it.

The expansions to Quake 2 are quite good as well, worth a try. especially the one that gives you a chainsaw.

I didn't even know there was N7 day until someone mentioned it... and it was 10:30 PM of the day.  So don't blame yourself :D

Also, yeah, Engineer does make the most sense.  Samus did design and build her own gunship, after all.

I've recently been thinking about installing Steam on my computer. Would you guys recommend this? It's a laptop that's a little over five years old, but I'd mostly be getting older games that don't take up too much space.

Steam itself is just a client, and takes up very little space and uses little memory (your internet browsing taxes your computer more). What matters is the intensity of the games you install.
Still can't think of a signature a year later.

I officially now LOVE the ICBM mod for Minecraft.  In what other mod do you get to unleash thermobaric missiles and kill swathes of hostile mobs with effing chemical weapons?  I'M A WALKING WAR CRIME!

The best part is that you can actually ride the missiles.
