Not quite. but almost Meta. I have read Starship troopers and some of Asimovs stuff. I'm trying to find a copy of Dante's Inferno but normally bookstores like Borders or Powells don't have it...
-
That would mean that it would be bought out by Microsoft game studios...
-
no, I'm not much for a classic... I like more conteporary Scifi or Fantasy
-
I was unaware that Satan said:tee hee you make him sound like a school girl... And I don't like the image of a Giant Red demon in a japanese schoolgirl outfit.

Last time I explored pretty far before the bloody thing froze.... It hasn't frozen before I just died usually... Anyone got any good chars?

Those are turned based games. JE is real-time combat. You simply can't jump, roll, move, heal & change style/transform & camera angle all at the same time using a Mouse & Keyboard. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> you could say the same things about Fable but they be porting that...
-
Wow. That didn't take long to degenerate from my comment to Waffles... I think that's called reverse evolution
-
As Hades & Vol would testify, porting JE over to a keyboard & mouse would be ineffectual. The controls are quite simply subliminal on the XBOX controller where all 10+ buttons are utilized flawlessly. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Some would say the same about Knights too. But it still worked didn't it? and if they had to they could use a similar control scheme as FF7

Quick! sombody find the Dev Net there's one lurking!

I think it would do better if they decided to release it on the PC (begins to pray for that to happen)

I admit, I should have used stalin....

I wasn't trying to balance them. I was just trying to point out that here we generally try to demonize our opponent and "bleachout" any "good" whatsoever the person did... Or for those who are supposed to be "good" we try to bleach their actions to "good" and in responce to Steve, We didn't get told about Dresden in history at all, or that much about the Japanese internment except that we paid them reperations for it. Only about what horrors the Japanese and the Germans inflicted upon the "natives"

Nah I would rather not hear is incessant whining. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Suggestion then, Don't have kids.

I would like to see Holland try to survive her...
-
I don't think that's my language considering that I can't make sense of it.

We shouldn't ignore the good that someone does because they are overwhelmingly "evil" that's all I was trying to point out. Just like we shouldn't ignore the bad that sombody does who's overwelmingly "good" Edit: I just know I'm going to catch so much flack for these two posts....

Well I'm saying that the survivors write the history books. Because the suriving majority from WW2 was the allies we all wrote that Hitler was evil. We don't give him much(if ever at all) credit for reviving a failed economy. I'm not saying that anyone is good or evil. the world is in shades of grey. the only place I've ever seen sombody refer to themself as evil is in a B movie, and Star Wars... People do abomidiable things but wen they win they tend to cover them up. Like the firebombing of Dresden and the destruction of a mission in Italy. we never hear about them because they were somthing that was done wrong by the allies. the latter is talked about but the only place I ever heard of dresden before I came here was in my english class when we read Slaughterhouse five. Somtimes having a dictator can be a good thing. Especially when the rest of society is so split over a topic that they are literally fighting a covert war that spills out into the street every so often. Some people agree with others and fight for their beliefs. We generally say "go you guy's!" to them until they threaten us then we promply threaten to turn them into a glass parkinglot. Hitler should be lauded for turning a dying economy into a thriving one. I'm not saying we should start thowing Jew's into firepits. I'm just saying that a persons accomplishments, good and bad, should be recognized, just as we should be paying more attention to the Constitutional Violations at Guantanamo Bay and call Bush on it. I'm appauled by the fact that people want america to run around like a petulant child and demolish everything that doesn't agree with us and has few "backers", then impose our own society on them. Anyway you'd think that annihlating the culture and government from one country would be enough in response to the destruction of a pair of towers. but it isn't we have to wipe out another country, and there's rumblings of extening the new American Empire to Iran and eventually North Korea... Fortunatly we have bush leaving office in 3 years, and both the afore mentioned countrys have much better armies than either Afganistan and Iraq so we can't fight a 6 month war with them, so I doubt that Bush will even try to kill either country. I'm not trying to trivialize the Twin Towers, But we have already taken more lives than were lost in the Terror attack. Americans should feel lucky, we've never really been a target at home like Japan, Spain, and England. I just don't like the knee jerk reaction of "the president can push anyone into prison who he doesn't like because he's a suspected terrorist" Also I think that some of the security measures are grossly uncalled for. For Example: In my area there is a Dam, we used to be able to drive across it to get from one side of the American River too the other, It significantly shortened your trip and saved gas. Because of the terror attack, the government decided to close the road over the dam. according to them, it was too much or a risk. When you look at how the dam was built and how much explosives would be needed to actually cause the dam to break, It's useless to try to plant a bomb on top of the dam, or to fly a plane through a canyon and cause it to hit the dam. that would just take a few chunks out of the face/top of the dam rather than cause it to break. The easiest way to cause a flood would be to blow out the floodgates, or try for a levy (which hasn't been closed by the way). It'd require much less explosives and get more effect.

a blind bastila while your at it...

What game soundtracks do you have on your pc?
Calax replied to roshan's topic in Computer and Console
I just have some songs from one or two games, and duel of the fates. Simple and Clean And the MGS2 intro I have the NWN Soundtrack somewhere in here. -
who said I would care mus ? I found Ep three to be a bit of a trip, especially when they turned Obi's "death" by the clones into a semi difficult level...
-
actually I was able to snag it (through questionable means) and play it, the only problem is I'm not what you would call a compulsive saver so when ever i die I have to start all over again...

Well I guess the Giant American Mardi Gras party will have to move somewhere else...
-
Is this from experiance or just a tidbit?
-
I donno, I think they have a "self Defense force" rather than a japanese army... But i'm probably wrong. Beware of the Eva's they will kill us with....
