The 2005-2006 hockey season isn't over yet. That ends when someone wins the Stanley Cup. Besides, as I was saying, Henrik Lundqvist played more than just the playoffs, so IF the playoffs did influence the voters, they wouldn't just look at Lundqvists polls. Besides, these are the nominees. When people talk about the "post season influence" they talk about the actual winner. Given that no one has placed their votes yet, it is impossible to completely ignore accomplishments made in the playoffs. For instance, the Vezina trophy is voted on by the GMs. After the playoff round between New Jersey and New York, I wouldn't be surprised if the performance of the goalies in that series influenced the votes of some GMs. It shouldn't happen, but to believe that it won't happen is to assume that the GMs in fact are not human.

Metadigital is also my hero

Nope, crates.

THat would require parents to be fully informed about all games that are out. Part of the reason the ESRB came to be was to help inform parents about the content inside games to help them make purchasing decisions.

Gromnir's my hero.

Playoffs are just a part of the entire season. In any case, count yourself lucky that he's considered then.

I wouldn't be too surprised if it is JE for the PC.

How does playing the game depict the content in the game any differently than merely watching it? I can't think of any game where I've seen a video of it, and concluded the violence level was different when I actually played the game.

Are there any graphic-based interfaces for this compiler? Sure it's fast and relient, but doing everything from the command prompt is messy. And P.S., Java rules at application programming (C# is quite good aswell), C/C++ is very good for for A.I. and API though <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'm not familiar with one. There may be an IDE somewhere that wraps on top of it somewhere. I am enjoying using Eclipse for Java, and will likely look into the C++ side of it when I get back into programming in C++

The only mainstream RPG in recent 4 years that i know, that somewhat fills that criteria is, sadly Oblivion. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Nah, the level of of Oblivion only reaches that if you intentionally make it so.

LOL!

Welcome to the U.S. of A! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That's what I dislike about this country, it's warped sense of morals. Taking a life is ok, but procreating is bad. That's the impression that these "lablelist" appear to me. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yeah well, in Europe it's typically Sex = ok, violence = bad.

And why praytell, do you not like them?

The Post-season isn't supposed to be taken into account, so I'm not sure what you are trying to prove. I think this is just proof that your a bitter person

I'm thinking they'd be dead "

Of course! Especially considering the two aren't really related. There's nothing saying that the best goalie in the league is necessarily one of the better players in the league. The only trophy nomination you could complain about that to would be the Hart. For instance, Kiprusoff is a Hart candidate. If he was not on the Vezina list, then that would be stupid. Crosby, Ovechkin, and Phaneuf have been in the top 3 for most of the year by many analysts. Lundqvist would occassionally move into #3, but Phaneuf would usually retake it shortly afterwards. I considered it a tossup between Phaneuf and Lundqvist, so I'm not all that surprised.

I use gcc/g++

What's to sigh about? Josh's analysis is pretty spot on. Precedent was already set.

Oh wow. I figured the demo would still let you start from the beginning again. Timed demo indeed!

Because they figured that the three other players listed were more impressive in their rookie campaigns? You'd have a case if you were talking about Hart nominees.

What the heck are you going to do now?

If it's already sitting in memory, then I doubt load times will really be that significant.

Yeah well, they can still buy those games. They'll just be rated M.

it's advised by... I'm asking what the actual degrees that the ESRBoard has... are they pop psycologists... perhaps angry mothers... or even creationists. That's what I'm trying to get at. We have a rating system but we don't know who's doing the rating so we are incapable of knowing if theres a bias or political influence on the group (shivers at the thought of hillary clinton being put on there) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> If there's any bias, it's from the games industry. IIRC it was set up and funded by the games industry....or maybe that's just the ESA? Meh.

Certainly doesn't sound like Bethesda is sticking it to the ESRB. Unless "sticking it to the ESRB" is complying with their requests. I agree with Josh...after the hot coffee fiasco Bethesda should have been more careful.
