  1. Yes, because just like the movies small covert teams are secret ninjas and pull of rescue ops no problem. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well, hollywood or not, that is what groups like the YAMAM or Sayaret Matkal are for. An armour division is what you use if youre attempting to rescue 5000 soldiers caught in a pinching manouver by the enemy, not to save two men taken prisoner by guerillas <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I could think of a reason for doing it with an Armored Division.
  2. I think I would have preferred the less happy ending as well, but I find I often prefer the less happy ending. I would have really liked Click ( ) if it had the unhappy ending as well. But I knew it wasn't going to. It did lead to a funny moment (Slevin's ending). "I'm a world class assassin ****head"
  3. I liked Vin Diesel in Pitch Black too. While a smaller role, I also liked him in Saving Private Ryan. He was a "decent" character
  4. News update...Doom 3 is in the house.
  5. No way you can beat a skilled Dhalsim player easily. Getting within striking distance alone is quiet a feat. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Meh. Only if you play with lame "no special moves" rules. I used to play that way, with limited spamming of special moves, which made Dhalsim more difficult. If I'm playing as Ryu, my advances typically involve the hurricane kick. I don't recall a hurricane kick bug with Ryu though. I was also a big fan of Vega too though. His suplex move was cool, and you could always use the claw if you had to, all from the same move. I remember one thing I hated about Chun Li, and it was how she could jump off the edge of the screen.
  6. M. Bison? Pfft. He's a punk. People always try to do his lame sliding trip and against inexperienced players you could actually get them stuck in the corner. Guile used to be a pain, because his special moves could both be set up the same way (hold down and back), and you could fire sonic booms until the guy tried jumping it, then he would flash kick you. Though I learned how to spam Ryu's much faster fireball, and it was gameover for him then! Plus while going up in the Dragon Punch you are invincible (I once Dragon Punched a fireball with zero health left to avoid getting it, since blocking would have killed me. Made me feel l33t). Much better than Sagat's lame, wannabe Tiger Uppercut. Ken may be a wannabe follower too, but at least he took the time to learn the mad skillz0rs in the correct way. Sagat is a little baby. Ryu whoops him! Though I think Balrog (in Turbo, since you could play him) was the worst. Ugh did he suck. Dhalsim, the stetch guy? Sucks. Ahhhh, so many memories.
  7. Good Chun Li players were the only ones that could rival my Ryu skills back in the day :D
  8. He typically seems to be "the good guy." Appropriately though, the other common character is Chun Li.
  9. You're using Ubunto right? I have a Fedora Core partition, but it was mainly for work reasons (at the time). Now, I can still do my stuff (different work) using Eclipse on Windows, so I don't really have the need to touch the Linux distribution anymore. It still exists because I'm inherently lazy

    I would laugh out loud if the decision was reversed and Italy had their championship revoked, and went down in the official record books as coming in second that game. And not even that I care who does or does not win, just because the sheer shock and rioting in Italy would be insane.
  11. Yes, because just like the movies small covert teams are secret ninjas and pull of rescue ops no problem.
  12. I actually enjoyed Peragus.
  13. Is this reflective of all Linux client games though? I can't really recall having stability issues with games (in Windows) that happened to also have native Linux clients either for that matter.
  14. It has been found! Apparently his Mom will be bringing it by our apartment someday. THough I'm busy and can't really play at the moment anyways.
  15. My roommate meant to enquire at his parents' place, but still no response on that front
  16. I suspect that Linux will become more compromised as it becomes more common. The only reason why the Mac OS didn't get the crap kicked out of it was because of its smaller installed base.
  17. I enjoyed Slevin too. A bit like the Guy Ritchie movies, though with a bit more serious of a tone.

    Llyarnor calls everyone a loser. Even as my German Panzers roll over his Red Army, he still calls me a loser.
  19. I thought it was Yahoo Serious. Oh wait, he just put bubbles in beer.
  20. So it has come to the Triar'ii? I liked the Hastatii or whatever and their pilums before war. Always nice to see 20 or so guys drop prior to combat :D
  21. I feel my picture is sufficiently badass in that poster. I won't have too much time to play at the moment. Crunch time at work.
  22. I agree that parts of it were pretty weak. I still enjoyed it, but found the first one much more interesting.
  23. The Lance Armstrong cameo was great. And IIRC, wasn't the Hoff the coach of the German team?
  24. We'd all love that. Except it's completely unrealistic.
  25. I remember having that problem. IIRC, it's a link on one of the pages, AIM's I think. I kept wondering how long it would take to get Bobby Ray's as well.
