Out of the 4 endings I played, I still prefer the epilogue of the "solo" ending the most. Anarch's is very similar, but a bit different naturally. The Camarilla and Kuei-Jin endings certainly aren't your typical endings.

I really enjoyed the game. As for people finding it too easy because you can run through MG fire...play on a harder difficulty setting.

Just harass some OE poster here until he gets nervous breakdown and he

AFAIK you don't install your games onto the Hard Drive (excepting demos), so 11 GB is still a lot of room too.

Exactly. If OpenGL was superior to DirectX, OpenGL would be used. Kind of like how OpenGL (and Glide) were much more popular back in the day.

20 GB is plenty of space. It's those 0 GB systems that got the shaft. Developers tend to develop to the lowest common denominator, sooo....

Is it? People have long since not bothered with the Macintosh as a gaming machine, and Linux isn't exactly winning over anyone that isn't a geek in terms of usage.

Sorry...I haven't played that one.

What about if you ignore upgrades that become obsolete?

Is it still bad when the proprietary format is free to use? Glide required licensing, and was limited to a single company. Microsoft works with game developers and card manufacturers with DirectX. It's come a long way since the Direct3D days. Obviously Microsoft is doing something right with DirectX, otherwise companies would just continue to use OpenGL.

I want verbose impressions afterwards. Planning on getting the xpac? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I like it so far, even if I still suck at the game. I always end up ignoring military research and naturally it comes back to bite me in the ass. I used a converter to export my EU2 game into it, which makes for an interesting layout. Really ahistorical naturally. Austria is huuuuuuuuge. Though it's entirely possible for some goods to not even be manufacturable, given that the industry generation is random, based on production size and the existence of manufactories and whatnot. Victoria seems to be a much larger focus on economics than any other Paradox game. I'm looking forward to the expansion as well. Seems as though it's coming WITH a converter to HOI2: Doomsday. Should be interesting.

The same reason why people buy dual-graphics cards to run in SLI.

I can hardly wait for the waves of T-34s you're bound to get. Though I don't think they're technically available yet, timeline wise. It was funny, because one of my units identified one of your BT-7 tanks as a "T-34?" at one point. I was confused as to how the heck he would even know what a T-34 is! Next thing you know he'll be thinking the tanks are IS-2s or something silly.

I wonder if Volo would even bother posting if there weren't Edmonton fans' buttons to push on these boards.

Yeah. Remarkably addictive. I haven't played Football Manager, but I have played Eastside Hockey Manager.

Heather changed, as in talking like a Malkavian? That is because she consumed the blood of one, she may not get deranged like a Malkavian but she will get close to it. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I don't remember that.

I just got Victoria.

The biggest boondoggle IMO is the HDD situation. Some have it, some don't. Boo-urns.

I think specialist is the one just below silent assassin.

What tech is it based on?

So you're saying that the simplest explanation isn't that Al-Quaeda just decided to crash a plane into the side, but that the US government was involved in some way? Certainly seems much more simple.

It's not necessarily that they don't make sense, but movies are typically filmed in widescreen to begin with. With the widescreen version, you're getting 100% of the recorded content. No pan and scan or anything of the like.

If that's true then it's opposite of the '78 film, which would be bad, imo. I don't mind a slow beginning to help set the backstory or characters etc. but having it be the other way around is no good...well, I'll try to see this film during the day next week. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Movies do this all the time, to good effect as far as I'm concerned. The beginning is often quick and entertaining, as it provides the hook for the viewer that catches his interest.

If you start analyzing the conspiracy info, you aren't taking the simplest explanation anymore.
