That's too bad. It's easily the best game of the series IMO. I played it on a Radeon 9800 Pro though.

Actually now that I think about it, so was I. Because I moved into my apartment in September 2003, and was using it for most of my first year living there.

WHen talking about System Shock 2, defining the term hacking is not required.

Ultima 9 did as well.

That's not true. I am a gamer and I have always been slow on my transitions to new operating systems. I was still using Windows 98 SE going into 2003, and I had no problems about OS support for games.

May just be cheaper to fire 'em of, then, aye? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Only if you ignore the opportunity costs.

Deus Ex had every line spoken in full voice over, and it didn't have any sort of emote dialogue system.

Heh, how often are UML diagrams actually used in industry?

And what basis do you make this assumption? It seemed perfectly plausible to me. To b e quite honest I thought it was a nice touch.

They got rid of the mission failure in Chaos Theory.

Did I get a happy birthday thread? EDIT: A quick look makes it seem as though I didn't.... .... ... .. . .. Jerks...I blame Llyranor!

I honestly don't think the stock cooler is disurbingly loud. I usually mistake it for the DVD drive spinning when I do notice it.

Hahaha!

I thought they did a pretty decent job of making them appear innocent and vulnerable, especially in the 3 minute trailer.

At the same time, from what I understand it's only the little sisters that are capable of it. Whether or not they were engineered that way (OMG those monsters!) or if something else caused it is probably something we'll only figure out after playing said game.

You'll find wisdom and experience are correlated

That was actually the idea I was trying to convey. Though looking back on what I said, I didn't do a good job of it. I did comment that I didn't get the vibe that they were supposed to be creepy though.

Not much happening tonight hockey wise. I had 3 players active, Jose gets a W against Vancouver, and some decent stats to boot. And at the same time, despite losing 3-2, Daniel Sedin gets a goal and is +2 on the night.

I loved the Special Olympics and the LOTR one. Butters screaming "my precious" hahaha awesome. I also laughed my ass off during the recent WoW one.

Soooooooooo Good! :D Thanks to you alanschu! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I loved watching it as a "filler" on the old Western Canadian movie channel Superchannel. It's been around for a long time, and I loved it as a kid. The National Film Board of Canada released it on the Internet (along with 49 others) for free viewing. The other one I enjoyed when I was really young was the Log Rider, though that one doesn't seem to be one of the 50. I'll see if I can dig it up though

The Splinter Cell games aren't really that much better. They made improvements along the way with the second and third ones, such as if the guards detect you they will put on body armor and whatnot. I think some areas result in additional guard patrols and things like that.

Absolutely. Prior to the Ring, little girls were hardly ever the focal point of horror movies. Besides, I don't really consider them to be particularly creepy. They are certainly vulnerable, but when the little sisters refer to a big daddy as Mr. Bubbles, I'm not really getting the vibe that they are supposed to be creepy.

There was an awesome Canadian National Film Board short to that song way back in the day. Check it out here

Define "eclipsed." Because both Doom and Half-Life came out prior to System Shock and System Shock 2, respectively. Doom was really close to System Shock though.

Actually you just posted before I did, so it looks like I'm responding to you instead of Diamond. Though I don't see any Venn Diagrams anywhere. I see some common syntax for implication in boolean logic though.
