  • Two Factor Authentication is now available on BeyondUnreal Forums. To configure it, visit your Profile and look for the "Two Step Verification" option on the left side. We can send codes via email (may be slower) or you can set up any TOTP Authenticator app on your phone (Authy, Google Authenticator, etc) to deliver codes. It is highly recommended that you configure this to keep your account safe.

I still sorta want an iPod Touch. Not really the iPhone, because I don't really think I'd need the phone to be a part of it too.

The iPod Touch is pretty nice. The only drawback to the Touch vs. iPhone is that you get charged for the firmware updates for the Touch, whereas they are free for the iPhone. Oh, and the fact that the Touch isn't also a badass phone :D Also, I think the Touch doesn't have it's own speaker (but that's to be expected since it's just an iPod.)

The Touch is also about half as thick as the iPhone. They're REALLY thin. Think 'MacBook Air' thin.

Major drawbacks to both of them are...

*They break easily. I work at Geek Squad and we get at least a few Touches and iPhones each week for some problem or other. It's mostly internal hardware problems but we do get the occasional cracked screen.
*They are not resistant to fingerprints in the slightest.
*They scratch easily. Buy it and make sure you get a case and a screen protector on the same day.
*They feel awkward in your pocket.

- "Guybrush Threepwood, Mighty Pirate™."


Bought the whole first season on steam. Played the first episode for a bit and so far it seems like they've done good job on capturing the humour and feel of Monkey Island.
