Tonight........ I enter Modern Warfare! Yay steam

Playing devil's advocate is hardly "being dishonest." The mere fact that different countries have different laws for the various different ways for people to take the life of another human being, including situations where it is acceptable to take the life of another human being, proves that it's not a simple issue. It gets even more muddied up when different countries agree on different recourse for retribution for the crime. Laws get redefined ALL the time. For instance, there is no crime known as "rape" in the Canadian Justice System. This is because rape had certain associations, requiring sexual penetration, attached to it, and they felt that a "rape" crime was far too narrow in scope. We now have varying degrees of "Sexual Assault" depending on the various factors associated with the sexual assault. It was also at this time spousal protection was enforced, because until then (early 80s) it was impossible for the legal system to recognize that a husband could rape his wife under the rape law. A whole slew of changes came at that time regarding sexually related crimes. But yeah, before 1980, it was perfectly okay for a husband to rape his wife, and good ol' Hades supports it 100% because there's no Law preventing it!

Among the current crop of EA games available (including sports) I can get two. I am considering Dead Space (pretty much a guarantee to get NHL 10) so I was curious if Dead Space was a gooder? Other options I am considering over it are Mirror's Edge, Mercenaries 2. That's just of PC though. 360 games are options too...was thinking maybe Madden 10.

Thinking on picking up CoD 4.

LOL

Ave Maria gets my vote. This voice is a beautiful instrument. It's just cheating to take an already epic famous and awesome song though. Oh yeah, and: <3

Hey, thanks. I had forgotten how good some HL tracks are. Diabolical Adrenaline Guitar FTW.

Yeah, it's definitely child rape when two 14 year olds (assuming 14 is below the age of consent) have sex! My bad!

Hey the government says so, who are we to question it right?

Well you're the one seeking to charge 15 year old boys with raping their 14 year old girls friends even though it was consensual.

Seems the problem is that BioWare used to be "undisputed" compared to other RPGs. So when the rest of them moved up to where they were, people expected BioWare to move up just the same.

Why were you hating it at one point?

The webspider? I'm skeptical that its not an automated bot populating google's search engine.

I don't need full on exploration, but something Deus Ex like would not go unappreciated. I'm not sure what the hubs are like so I can't erally say. To be honest though, I didn't care as much and I was looking forward to the game regardless. I notice Rorie is silent. I have a feeling the dumbass blog media ruined our fun. God I hope it wasn't a forum regular that decided to report it or I'd like to kick his ass.

Indeed it is. Also, before print magazines.

I saw a PS3 magazine review of it on their main page. The reviewer's main gripe was that the game was very, very hard. Unforgivingly hard.

I replied to a 2.5 month old post because it was new to me I just find backs up against the wall as being a bit gamey. I always play a game like that to have crazy fun and I have the most fun being a crazy maniac and doing silly stuff now. You'll never find me going /kill to get an extra medkit or anything

I only notice it if I look for it, or in screenshots (again, while I'm looking for it). Anisotropic filtering is very useful though.

That's why you hit the switch and then run like hell. If you start running right away you have more than enough time to get to the rock. People that stand on the rock = booooooooooo. I was convinced to do it once and the only reason why it was entertaining was because someone was having a hard time getting onto the rock so we were blasting above his head to save him. Then someone got smokered off to make it a bit more interesting. The only thing less interesting is closet camping the swarm.

As I just learned, sometimes simply because there's review copies out, doesn't mean they'd be allowed to say anything

If SCEA had issues with it, there was probably cert issues. Which I could understand given the timeframe. Cert is a nerve racking time. They'll have Microsoft cert for the 360. Depending on the publisher, they may have a cert process as well (EA has a cert process I know).

Web site production has been slowed by excessive amount of work. Been crunching for the past few weeks.

Yes I know. But hey, thanks for breaking it all down for me. Furthermore, I was talking about future sales for a Mass Effect 2. It's irrelevant for you to go into any detail about the breakdown of profit from Mass Effect to Microsoft. I merely pointed out sales figures for the original Mass Effect, as they can give an indication of possible success for the sequel. (And even then it's not even a guarantee...it only showed that the game was popular).
