On this thread's recommendation I got Rebel Galaxy and I gotta say that it's a pretty fun game with a loving awesome soundtrack. I'm really enjoying it!

Also try Fractured Space. It's a f2p moba where you fly capital ships.

All “gamer” brand hardware is always garbage. Because it's aimed at gamers and gamers are stupid (cf. Citizens).

Why are there bars on the ceiling and near the ceiling on the side consoles? Are the ceilings modular? Wouldn't it be easier and safer to just have them under raised floors? Or are they there to grab onto so you can manoeuvre around in case of gravity loss? If so, why aren't there any on the floor, since there would no longer be a distinct ceiling and floor in such a case?

They call it a hygiene module, but we all know what the purchasers really want it for. Those bars are what they'll hook the restraints to.

You control the hands which control the space taps in your space sink.

Many citizens will probably spend more time in the bathroom in a virtual setting than they do in real life.

Gamer brand junk sales are directly correlated with the amount of LEDs and bright colors they have.

Basically if you design your gamer product for a 4 year old you've captured the market.

A mental 4 year old with the spending budget of a 40 year old.

Jack pulled the release lever on the fighter’s canopy and watched it slide back, releasing its accumulated stench into the stale air. He switched his suit over to O2-only to defeat the smell and reached down with his medical probe to collect a DNA sample from the self-dispatched pilot. As he leaned in, he spotted a glow emanating from near the man’s feet. Jack reached in past the man’s broken and battered hands to find a mobiglas clinging to the underside of the seat. He retrieved the device and shoved it securely into his equipment pouch.

Eager to leave the gruesome sight behind, he stood and headed for the front of the constellation. Jack entered the bridge to thankfully find his comrade unsnapping the final cable tethering the ship’s delicate computer core to its housing. “The plot thickens,” remarked Jack, “I found someone holed up inside the fighter in the back. Poor bastard offed himself. Pack up that core and let’s get the hell out of here. This drat ship gives me the heeby-jeebies.”

After another short trip across vacuum, the men once again found themselves within the familiar comfort of the Aimless. Jack made sure to ask his wife to hook the the salvaged computer core up to the Aimless and pull its data as soon as he stepped aboard with it. While she worked at cracking the core, Jack sat down with the mobiglass he had retrieved from the derelict’s attached Merlin and keyed it open. The first file was a video that was delivered to a recipient in the Elysium system.

When Jack stepped into the Constellation’s common area, what he saw left the hairs at the back of his neck standing on end. It was an absolute bloodbath. A man sat slumped forward onto the kitchen table with a long-dried pool of red smeared across its surface. His blood had soaked into the cloth of the seat, permeating the space with a putrid stench that Jack’s suit was having a hard time scrubbing out of the air being pumped into his helmet.

Floating in the threshold of the doorway leading to the bridge was a second body. This one was female and appeared to have been shot several times in the back while attempting to flee. Miller stepped past the corpse, unaffected by the grisly sight, and continued his sweep into the bridge. The scene of carnage continued inside. There was a body fastened into the pilot’s chair that was slumped to the side with its hands still firmly grasping the control sticks; He was shot once in the side of the head.

“Seems he was caught off guard.” remarked Jack as he inspected the deceased pilot that was still faithfully manning his post. Miller panned his flashlight down the tube that lead to the lower turret and discovered yet another motionless form inside. The security officer tugged on the dead man’s boot and waited patiently for him to float up into view. The middle aged man had a jagged gash along his brow with what looked like scratch marks running down his face and neck. “This one was killed without the use of a gun. Looks like whoever attacked him went bat-poo poo on his rear end, though. What in the hell happened here?”

No, it's more like, concentrate really hard, and if you feel something damp wriggling down your leg and the room suddenly smells bad, then you've concentrated hard enough — SC is out.

Realtalk: Logitech is the only brand of mouse you should consider unless you have a specific reason not to get one.

Realtalk: Never buy Razer unless you like terrible firmware, bad software and a high failure rate.
