Medic Plays A Real Pokemon Game for the First Time – Part 9

Last time I was here, I was avoiding Hop before reaching the next gym. I went off to catch some more Pokemon. After a semi-useful catching spree, I decide to go back and fight Hop. And, just like last time, I beat him with ease. To his credit though, he made one of my Pokemon faint. This is also the first time I saw a new Pokemon that had an entire fucking Pikachu trapped in its mouth. Gross. Anyway, with Hop out of the way, I can properly visit the gym here.

Mod Showcase: Project Ghost

Welcome back to Mod Showcase. Brickinator again, here to chat about Project Ghost, a fairly new mod gamemode that’s part of the TF2 Tightrope community. Project Ghost draws many parallels with ghost-hunting TV shows; there’s lots of people in a cramped area, constant screaming and a complete lack of ghosts. Why the hell they chose the name ‘Project Ghost’ is beyond me. In fact, I haven’t got a ghost of a clue why they chose it! Comedy gold. Project Ghost is a plugin for Arena mode. Remember Arena mode? Me neither. At the start of each new round, the game… [Continue Reading]
