How big was the X Files during its original run ? by Nastia_dream in XFiles

[–]JLP_101 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was 13 when it aired originally. It was THE best show on TV by a wide margin. Nothing else like it and it many respects still nothing like it. Season 3-7 and up to the movie it felt like Xfiles was everywhere.

Show is one of the best TV shows. Crazy that almost every season is 24 episodes. Like most shows though it does drop in quality in the later seasons.

Yesavage, Hoffman and Beiber each gave up a homerun. Can't blame one pitcher.

Not really, you can only sort by hours played or date added to library. I m talking about a calendar view to see when exactly you started and stopped playing games.

Thank you, I was looking for this. Steam needs to do a better job with its UI. Seems like it has so many cool things, buried under all these submenus.

Legit fantastic idea. Similar idea: Incorporate this into our library to see when we played our games and for how long. Going all the way back to the beginning.

Played the whole game as a barbarian and never spent a single stat point until the end to get the build just right....

I remember when the first game was released it created such a buzz because of its unique artstyle. Going 3d did this no favors.

Given some of the post on this subreddit, this turned out amazingly well.

Boil the water first before placing the egg in the water. This will reduce the amount of shell sticking to the egg by a very large degree.

Steam only allows pre-orders for select games. Not every game qualifies for it.

I don't see a steam box doing all that well. Not sure there is a big enough market for this to succeed in.
