I felt the same way about Superman 3. I remember loving it when I was a kid but watched it again last christmas holiday and it sucked so bad.

Poor Kaftan. If Bush would allow stem cell research they wouldn't have to replace your brain with a monkey's. I feel for you man.

Only if you are filmed or painted then viewed by someone, even yourself. A bird sh1tting on my car isn't art but if I expose my car as a canvas for the sh1t then bird sh1t becomes art. :D

I remember having a very similar conversation with father a long time ago. I think it was when he was teaching me how to write a check. The point of a signature is that it has to be unique to you and, preferably, hard to forge. If you sign your name the same way you write any other words, it will not do and your father is right. Also, you need to be able to reproduce it almost identically everytime. If you ever work in a restaurant and you get the opportunity to handle the cash register and customer payments, you will have many examples of what a signature should be. My first name is very short and my last name is long. So my signature is basically my complete first name followed by a scribble of my last name where only the first two letters are discernable and the whole thing is written very fast. Anyone who knows me can tell it's my name, anyone else can make out some letters and that's about it.

Ok, that settles it then.

I take offense being preached at, period. By game or by person, doesn't matter to me. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> But don't you get preached at playing D&D? By Clerics and Paladins mostly?
-
The difference is that there are people think that the God made up for our world is real and are willing to discriminate and kill others in its name. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That is my conclusion as well, I was just asking. To me, a game made by Christians(or Catholics, Muslims, Pagans, whatever) in which NPCs preach the word of God(or whatever), the preaching is made towards the character I'm playing and not me. I have no problem with such a game because it remains a game. Of course it is still promotion of a religion but how is that different from product placement in a Tony Hawk game or from a racing game in which a car is obviously designed like a Ferrari but called a "LightningHawk" or something? I guess my question to you is why do you take offense at being preached at... by a game?
-
That's role playing and part of the game, therefore not useless. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> What is the difference between a God made up for a D&D world and a God made up for our world?
-
Aren't you being preached useless dogma when playing a Paladin of Helm in D&D games?

I only read your pasting Meta. As a gamer, I don't care if a game was made by Christians trying to make me more religious or whatever. I only care about how much fun I'm going to have with their game and if I have my money's worth, which is a very relative thing. Having fun with a game, for me, includes how much I appreciate the gameplay, the grapphics, the sounds, the music, the colors, the animations, the voice work, the story, etc. It's a combination of things. Like ingredients in food, some taste good, others are bad but the important thing is how it tastes once finished. Are games art? I really believe so but only as much as movies or even television scripted shows are art. And their main function is to make money, not make you cry with some artsy message about the fall of society and love or something. In any case, I don't think anyone can disagree with the fact that, at the very least, games contain art.

Very nice pic indeed. And I love your theme as well.

I really liked Deadwood until the third season. #3 just drags on and on and on and nothing really happens. The last 3-4 episodes you'd think something is building up for a major season finale but as it turns out it's a big dud. Also, the cursing in season 3 is just way out there now. Way too much of it, especially from Swearengen(swear engine...). I also think it's one of those shows that is much more enjoyable if you watch them one after the other in one or two sittings.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yes, of course. <_< But does a single video warrant a thread of its own? I didn't want to start another annoying Console X vs. Console Y debate. Just dropping a comment seemed sufficient. No? -
Thank you!

Happy day of your birth Arkan. May they be plentiful in the future and full of... stuff... that you like.

Really? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> What on earth does that have to do with my post? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I was trying, somewhat, to convince you to buy a PS3 instead. :"> But in reality I thought the vid looked awesome and wanted to post it somewhere and here, it seems, was the most relevant. I was wrong. Again. :"> -

To many games to play. I'll sleep when I'm dead.

I would watch it everyday. I still sing the theme song once in a while. It was an interesting show, educational and entertaining but the comic was even better.

I'm trying to play Neverwinter Nights Diamond. I'm still in Chapter 1. I've cleared all but the Blacklake district and now I'm trying to get those art thingies for Ophala but the stupid game keeps freezing every 30 minutes or so. At first I thought it was the autosave but it just crashed on me right after completing the quest(for Ophala), running back to the temple to take the teleporter back to Blacklake. Now I have to do both the Rumbottom and Hodge Estates again. I'm starting to remember why I didn't like this game in the first place... P.S. Yes, it's fully patched. V1.68
