  1. Ok, ENOUGH!! ALL your mom's are gay, OK?! There, that settles it.
  2. I love God of War. It is easily the prettiest game I've ever played on my PS2 and a shining example of how developers REALLY have evolved since the PS2 was released. I think the most impressive thing about that game is the fact that it never stutters. NEVER.
  3. Put the CD in the drive and then run this patch: http://www.gamershell.com/download_581.shtml It worked for me.
  4. Who in their right mind would even ask this question? OF COURSE Tyson would win. The ring is small, Tyson was (in his prime) exceptionally fast and he was a HEAVYWEIGHT (that means something, look it up) while Bruce Lee was a fly weight! You guys need to watch a LOT more MMA if you seriously believe a Lee could beat a Tyson. You guys must also have forgotten how fantastic Mike was during his prime time. He was once considered unbeatable, and he sure as hell wouldn't have lost to a fly weight.
  5. I liked Spellforce, because if you wanted to, you almost never had to play the RTS part of the game. You could just take your little band of heroes and fight your way through the maps, solving quests and gathering equipment RPG style! I loved how the mix of RPG and RTS worked so well. I went to a press preview of "Rise & Fall" the other day, and it seems to have the potential to become a solid RTS title, where you can try out the Spellforce way of life for 2-6 minutes per map. Keep a lookout for it!
  6. You know what I'd love? If you took a high resolution picture of your attic and let us oogle and google at it while you're busy doing inventory. Of course, then this thread would explode too.. I want that Descent to Undermountain in pristine condition..
  7. So you can guarantee that, huh? Nope, not my point at all. But USA didn't attack 'Terror-land', USA attacked Iraq. The citizens of Iraq are iraqi people, not terrorists. Don't ever forget that. Anyhow, sorry for helping to pull this thread into a negative spiral. I hate when that happens. I do like a lot of things about (and from) the USA, but Bush's foreign politics really make my blood boil.
  8. Actually, the UN did send weapon inspectors (Hans Blix was one of them) to check if Iraq indeed had 'WEAPONZ 0F MASS DESTRUXTION' but they only got a few months to search an entire nation (and Iraq isn't small). When they couldn't find any, the american government resided to calling Hans and his team liars and (basically) wimps. About a year after invading, the US government admitted that they too never found any WMD's. Nice, huh? Apparently they're STILL searching: http://www.cnn.com/2005/US/01/12/wmd.search/ "Despite intensive searches, no banned Iraqi weapons were found after the fall of Saddam Hussein's regime." Uh.. anyhow.. Happy Birthday to the non-arrogant and non-ignorant part of the american population!
  9. No no, it's because americans are willing to spend thousands of lives and billions of dollars to PROTECT THE RIGHTS OF THE IRAQI PEOPLE!!1! I'm always amazed that some people actually believe this. Especially when they live in the most capitalistic nation in the world. They, of all people, should know that a capitalist does NOT spend any money without interest. Ps. "brutally murdering your citizens is NOT a differing ideology.". How many states have the capital punishment again..? A government brutally murdering its citizens? I guess it's easy to point fingers, huh.
  10. Yeah, you're right. If "standing up" means going to war. Otherwise I know plenty of nations who stand up for democracy and freedom without actually killing people with differing opinions and/or ideologies.
  11. Just a quick note: This is not something that's unique for the USA. Every rich country in the world that has poor neighbours has the same 'problem'. Immigration always goes from poor to rich, that's quite natural. Not every nation in the world is so vocal about their problems though. Those damn finns keep sneaking over our borders! Curse them! Curse them all!
  12. r0xx3r3dz..?
  13. Two things: cel-shading and japanese weirdness. Other than that, it looks like a highly original and exciting title. For some reason it reminds me of Ichi the Killer, and that's NOT a good thing (Only movie I ever saw that writes its own title in 'male orgasmic fluid').. http://www.capcom.co.jp/killer7/english.html
  14. Bioware does make extremely polished (albeit a bit boring) games, but I'm not sure most of the people on this board would include Obsidian in the same sentence. I mean, they have released one game so far, and maybe my version was special but it nearly sets fire to my ATI GPU for some reason. It's not as polished as I would have hoped for.
  15. And you're sure it's you that keeps making them..?
  16. Yeah yeah, but we all know that Britney r0xx0rz your s0xx0rz!!1!
  17. I got 1952 but when I tried to take a screenshot, my Firefox crashed. I have no proof! Edit: Phew! Thank god, I got a better record (2093 feet). Also, I wonder if it's possible to get lower than 11 feet..?
  18. I think this is a great poll!!1!!one!eleven Of course, I voted for Gothic and Wasteland.
  19. That
  20. Then we'll just agree to disagree. Sorry for derailing your thread, by the way. Happy Birthday USA! Did you know that buildings that are older than your nation are common in Sweden? Edit: Actually, EnderWiggin, you may be right. What was taught to me in school 15 years ago may have been redefined. I was taught that Sweden had "tr
  21. I'm sorry, you're confusing slave trade and being involved in slave trade with actually having slaves. Sweden had colonies, which they let the british West India Company use as a slave harbour, but slaves were never 'imported' to Sweden (according to what's taught in swedish school books). The vikings didn't have slaves, they had what would now be called serfs. What's so confusing about it is that they practically invented the word slave (because of where they got their serfs from) but by today's standards they would have been called serfs. A serf is someone getting (albeit minimal) pay for their work. A serf also has the right to buy his freedom after a couple of years (I mean, they were still abducted). As I said in my earlier post, it may be a matter of semantics, but there is still a difference. I'm no history expert, but I think I do know more about swedish history than what you can dig up from 2 minutes of net searching..
  22. No, serfs and slaves are not the same thing. And the vikings never took men, they only abducted women.. for the gene pool and all that. "In the strictest sense of the word, "slaves" are people who work for someone else but are not paid, and who have no rights. The word comes from slav, which originally meant landless serfs from Eastern Europe, including parts of the Roman Empire. However, the current usage of the word serfdom is not usually synonymous with slavery, because serfs are considered to have had some rights." Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slavery It's mostly semantics, but Sweden never had slaves.
  23. Sweden has never had slaves. We had vikings and a horribly class-divided system, but never slaves.
  24. A quick search on google later and I would still say: nope. Many probably suggested that they rerelease Daggerfall for the tenth, but alas they didn't. But they turned Elder Scrolls: Arena into a freeware game, and offered it as a download! That was nice.
  25. Robbie Williams?!
