One of the best games in existance. Despite subpar graphics, this game, created by Dynamix and Sierra, is very easily modded (not to mention pirated), and at one point, was considered the BEST MMOFPS out there. Free online play. irc.tribes.net for some more info. Full name: Starsiege: TRIBES.
Those guys in tribes version 1.08 screamed "AURR!" in a squeaky nonhuman voice when they died... Hahahaha..."
A very easily pirated online game. Used to be very fun and cool around 1999 but ever since the lame sequel came out, Tribes is slowly dying off. Beware of the no-life nerds who play that game as if it was their life! AKA-Pros.
One friend bought Tribes. Now20 people pirated it from him and play too!
A game written on a poor engine that could not be patched due to third-party squabbling. Many believe that the game should have been written on the Torque Game Engine, as that was the engine used for the other games in the series.
A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.
For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
