If it was an Elder Scrolls related newspost we'd already hit 3 pages. That's everything you need to know about the oldschool gamers at the Codex.

Always glad to be of service.

Oldschool? :?

So there is an update about this indie game whose devteam consists of 1 guy. The game is propably in a stage between drawing concept art and writing the first lines of code with a 95 % chance of being abandoned at some point and never seeing the light of the day. He posts a few pictures of rendered houses and barns that look like...well, ordinary houses and barns.

Now seriously, I don't want to bash any indy dev, kudos to the guy for making this game and I really wish him good luck, but what the fuck are we supposed to comment on that newspost?

"Mang! I can't believe it. Those barns, they look...awesome!"

Last time I checked I was 21. Since humans can only move linearly through the fourth dimension, I doubt I turned younger.

This is just a newspost about some Mass Effect PC or something, so it's not much more impressive, either.

Wow, this was so totally worth the over-hyped countdown.

Not sure if I should be annoyed at Bio, or at the gaming media who saw the countdown and start universally jerking off to the possibilities.

I see they took a page from the Molyneux book of hype: never fail to disappoint.

Too bad the butthurt seems to be about people complaining that their country isn't eligible for this bazaar crap instead of complaining that the bazaar crap is not worthy of a hypetastic countdown? This only means more countdowns over nothing in the future.
