Oh cool! I should submit an application. I've been playing on the 15th MEU servers recently, since they seem like the only reliable servers running ACE and ACRE.
EDIT: Also, I've actually used some of the stuff in Dslyecxi's Arma2 guide when playing airsoft.
Max Payne 3 is pretty good. Dark though. I mean, he's full of booze and pills, not just in the way a clubbing idiot might be, but genuinely an alcoholic and painkiller addict, sobbing in his apartment, throwing things around, hating himself, hating life, being so smashed on booze and pills he can't walk, wishing he was dead, just trying to numb the pain of his everyday existence while being disgusted with himself and his life as it is.
My friends and I got way into Max Payne, then Punisher written by Garth Ennis and John Woo movies and that pretty much defined the base line for things we liked for years, with the movie Man on Fire being (we thought) one of the better expressions of gritty cold blooded rotten revenge violence that we'd consumed. Since then we've grown as people (not by a LOT) but we all agreed that we needed to play Max Payne 3.
Max Payne 3 basically being a Tony Scott movie that takes place is "corrupt urban place south of America" feels like someone took those few years and distilled them into one thing.
I don't even know if the game is actually any good, its just a total nostalga bomb. It's like someone made a video game specifically for the me of 10ish years ago.

It's basically that, plus the most polished and optimized Max Payne game you can think of, and without the story weirdness of the second(Though it is briefly acknowledged as canon, including a slight nod to Mona Sax.)
It's sort of like someone took Tony Scott and Hard Boiled, then smashed them together.
I got my wife into Portal 2 but having never played the first game she did not get some of the references so she decided to play that one and then go back to the second game. She is surprisingly good at finding alternate ways to solve chambers.
I recall watching my dad playing portal 1 on my PC. He was supposed to break a pipe with a rocket turret to get a cube to get into a vent. Instead he proceeded to fucking make a pile of old computers laying around and reached it that way. I was having conniptions in the background during that.

I would not say conniption on my part but more just staring at that screen slack jawed and not understanding how she even considered some of those options before the ones I believed to be more apparent. I will say that she is making me just want to go on YouTube and search for all the alternate ways to solve chambers.

I know the part you're talking about and I did the exact same thing.

I'm willing to bet that Valve saw that in playtesting and that's why they put enough old computers in that area.
Oooh, I'm not sure exactly how to do that, but I'll do some research.
EDIT: How many slots should I have? 10 is the minimum (and most affordable).
EDIT2: Ok, so I got a server with 10 slots, called "Front Row Crew - NYC". It should be online shortly. What mods should I have on it to start? I'm thinking either DayZ or ACE+ACRE.

EDIT2: Applied!
And this is BEFORE YOU EVEN GET TO THE MAIN MENU.

L4D2 works pretty well with virtual surround.
