Could have been interesting

Apparently that is an issue for some, game doesn't appeal to their demographic. I suppose with Geralt as the PC they're bound for the most part. Heh, maybe they should make games with Triss or someone else as the character - maybe that Bard joke game they made a trailer for earlier.

Nice big game of Civ IV on the weekend, having already killed every Greek, cleansed Persia out of the middle east so begins the inevitable slog against the hordes of Chinese to the east. Yet another game where all these SoBS are vassal states to some big Eastern power

Light dose for one's outrage fix http://www.haaretz.com/news/diplomacy-defense/idf-soldier-posts-instagram-photo-of-palestinian-boy-in-crosshairs-of-sniper-rifle-1.504117

Staying up to 0300 playing Civ 4 was a bad idea, have the day off but it's messed up my sleep routine.

I like the TBS cut of Die Hard 2 the best

It's not too bad when everything else is $10 and up. Price of choosing bars/restaurants that suits go to, I suppose.

Workmate is leaving our department for the glorious splendor of a new division, so there's drinks at some suitably pricey place, so I guess that'll be my task for tonight. $6 for 'Belgian Frites' isn't too bad though - assuming we get a place there.

They'd flatten Seoul, but wonder how well they'd do afterward - well until the US and any other allies arrive in force. Heh, they'd probably run out of fuel and ammunition pretty quickly. That's an interesting thing in the last few wars, forces burning through ammo at insane rates.

Gabriel Knight 3 crashed during the big reveal cutscene on who told the Schattenjagers to fight evil, bleh. But finished off the game, those puzzles in the last part sure were a pain. Now on to Deponia

Well, hope the author of the fan mod speaks up about that.

They've got nothing on Serbian girls. Well, maybe less crazy than the one's I've known at least.

Oh Jack Black's in it ? Feh, forget it then.

Well, don't think it was an 'issue', just designed it that way. I guess it could make things a bit too easy to run through an area with 39 others (not that questing is all that difficult). Was funny to be frustrated by a lack of drops and then go 'Oh..right..raid'.

Hm, that doesn't look too bad. Heh, nice that they use the music from the first game on the match end screen.

Funny how because he's hunting police and scaring them he's a terrorist now, heh. I don't see much of an issue with people assuming the police are crooked or a gang unto themselves but still needing the services their taxes pay for. You don't have to admire or worship service workers doing their job for you. Also, why are you all on Luridis for defending him ? Just because he's not posting giant diatribes of outrage doesn't mark him as one of those "RIP CHOCOLATE RAMBO" people - why he ended up like this is a fair question. I doubt anyone will ask with any serious intent to find an answer though.

Well, that's sink or swim motivation for you.

Lots of people dislike authority or police. The LAPD doesn't exactly have a stellar public image, or at least to some. So Dorner's seen as sticking it to them. That and he's pushed them to hilarious examples of incompetence such as shooting innocents or actually stating that he's crippled them as they dedicated so many resources to hunting him that they can't do their day to day jobs - nice proof that quote from Blade Runner is true for them "If you're not cop, you're little people".

Who's pro-Dorner here? I'm not keen on him just offing people, even LAPD officers. Still, if a psychopath tells you 2+2 =4 it doesn't mean it's not true. It's the same way people mention he killed two people as an excuse for the LAPD being pansies and panicking shooting at 3 people.

Heh, why would they ? Ravings of a mad man, no basis in reality.

Well looks like the LAPD can go back to looking like solving little people's crimes now that he's dead.

Well lockdown on nearby camps is released, so...I'm guessing he's dead.

Yeah, nothing confirmed as of yet. Sadly they're using secure channels so the scanner stream I'm listening to is missing.

SWAT team's found his body apparently.
