I would think that given your stance, you'd probably actually rather the game not even get releaed, and just disappear off the radar altogether

Games I'm looking forward to are Half-Life 2: Aftermath Company of Heroes Battlefield 2: Special Ops Neverwinter Nights 2 (even if just for the toolset...although I think the OC will be good too). Empire at War. and dare I say it....Fallout 3 (actually this is so far off in the future I'm not too worried about it. It's more here to incite the fanatics into a frenzied fever).

To us the consumer though. I'm not sure if it would be as practical to the developer/publisher. Although I guess stuff like this would only happen if you anticipated an additional release, so it's not like you'd have to start preproduction everytime. But at the same time, people often say they "hate" expansion packs because of stuff they feel should be in the game anyways. I think it could possibly backfire, since fans can be just as picky, and could possibly only look at the length itself.

Hahaha, I really enjoyed the coop in Delta Force. I played it with two friends, one was sniper, one had SAW, and one had M4 with M203. It was good fun! Another example of a medicore game becoming fun simply because coop exists.

In the words of Quagmire, it'd be 'giggity giggity giggity.'

I'm not sure I understand the question. I mean, if they weren't happy with what they had, and felt a fresh overhaul was the way to go, then I'd say yes...they had to start it over in 2002.

Errr, they mentioned that they completely started over in 2002. Technically it's only been in production for 3 years then. Given Half-Life 2's 6 years...

Where can you find this pacifist upgrade? I don't recall ever installing it.

Errrr, you want them to cut the game in half, and the price by 60% I really can't see that happening!

Well, it certainly would explain why me, a man, values a good storyline above almost everything else.

Why should the release the game if it's not done?

Fallout is a pretty good expansion pack. No game has had more expansion packs than Kings Quest though.

I agree

I was under the impress that it was just the setting that restricts it. Based upon what? A limited amount of literature? If you just look at the core rules, of COURSE there haven't been any before, because they were restricted and not allowed. If that's the best reason you can come up with for a Dwarven Paladin not fitting the setting...... Of course you can be silly and take things way to the extreme and go "but but but, there's no bugs bunny, because it doesn't fit the setting" or whatever. AD&D held up some sort of bizarro archetype where humans reigned supreme and could do anything, but everyone else, despite having the same base attributes and whatnot, just can't do it. I can have a Gnome with 18 intelligence, but he can ONLY be an illusionist. Because a Gnome Conjurer is just OMGoWTFz00rs! or something silly. If it wasn't talking about fictional races, I'd almost say that AD&D is racist! :D

I am just about to become a Lance Corporal. And I enjoy tanks too. Most of my best runs have been with the M1A2 Abrams. But I've always enjoyed tanks. The Tiger was fun in BF1942, although tanks as a whole sucked ass in BFV.

The PC Gamer mentioned the scrappage occuring in 2002

Oh goody...he copied your avatar.

Ok good.......at least that rules out any possibility perhaps you were being serious. Besides, Lucas would have made it look WAY nicer.

I just got a few medals and ribbons myself! I'll catch you soon Kaftan! Although I'm a miserably pilot, can't hit anything. And I suck at getting guided missiles to lock onto a plane properly, even if I hestitate and let them fire their Chaff.

You surely must mean :volourn:

While I won't disagree, I'm sick of hearing local activist groups blame EVERY weather phenomenon on "climate change." We had hot summer, which made "perfect sense" given that "global warming" was occuring. But now that we've had heavy rains, it too is because of global warming. The warm winters....global warming, the cold winter...oooo a different name, "climate change." We had some rivers flood (which local scientists attribute to the heavy rainfalls), yet clearly the rise in global temperatures is starting to increase rate at which the glaciers in the rocky mountains are melting (although it didn't explain why our rivers where so horribly, horribly low the past 3 years). Meh.

I'm just going to post a whole bunch of quotes, since I am finding this article a neat read. Apparently the motion of the flag in the video is not dampened, as it should be if it existed in an atmospheric world. I watched the video, and it was pretty neat. If you check out the link, he has a link to the video, in its entirety.

Interesting... Interesting that NASA made no attempts to hide the fact that when doing simulations they used a mock-up of the lunar surface. Now why on earth would they make this stuff public, and then shoot the "real" thing there and say it's not faked?

Alberta has also had mild winters in the past few years. This past year was rather cold. We also had some really, really hot summers the past few years, but this summer has been anything but (in fact it's been mostly we here in Northern Alberta).

Another good read This one is a case by case study of hoaxes in general, rather than just looking at Fox's "documentary." He has many links to the photos that "prove" the lack of moon landings. This quote I liked the most (so far, as I'm not done reading it):
