I like how they turned off the engines by randomly clicking buttons and didn't notice it the entire time haha.

Push ALL the buttons

e: I know they weren't exactly playing the game the way it was intended, but the space shuttle game seemed kind of busted.

I believe I know who it was playing Doom 3 last, as does everybody else. A little Fear Gauntlet, anyone?

EDIT: Damn, I was close. They were playing the XBox version. Maybe Steve and Kessler booted up the PC version?

The shuttle wasn't capable of going to the moon. Just sayin'.

Are you a highly trained engineer, or did you just watch an internet video and decide to be a dork on an internet forum?

Are you threatened by intelligence, or do you consider it a badge of honor to wave your ignorance around an internet forum?

It's simple physics, no intensive training necessary. The shuttle's rockets don't provide the lift to go to the moon, because the shuttle wasn't designed to go to the moon.

I assumed you were waving conspiracy theories around, for my ignorance I apologize.

You're a stupid head.

No. Dave mentioned they got the pc from the gamespot guys. Someone from gamespot was playing some doom 3 for some reason.

They don't have any interns at the new place, and steve and kessler left long before the move from the old place.

Cute, but I was praising for admitting a mistake online as very few people have the balls to do that, let alone admit it to themselves.

It's weird, I never really noticed this before but the beginning of this game kinda reminds me of the beginning of the original half life like they were saying. Also all these sound effects remind me of half life too.

Edit: What am I an idiot, of course, Half Life was made on id tech 2.

I bought a premium membership for Flight Club! Really wish there was more @snide! Maybe you could cheat and incorporate EVE into it? I know you were thinking about playing that.

Either way, come on man!

Here we see foreshadowing for the many Kerbal deaths that -- many years later -- would follow these early training missions. Remember the fallen.
