"Whiskey Diaries" "Not Sure if troll.jpg" Although that would explain why Captain Morgan looks a wee bit Irish.

Somewhere in the world, someone said the same thing about Resident Evil Apocalypse. We are 3 awful movies after that.

But if you can afford it you definitively should catch a Broadway show.

Coney not Connie Oh God, did she get mad?

I think I lost whatever measure of respect that I for you over that statement.

Connie Island, the Statue of Liberty, Rockefeller Plaza and the Empire State. Now your list got a bit longer, also buy mace. Lot of crazy people in New York specially the subway.

Did they flip The Americas when I wasn't looking?

And on the occasion that you get to pull the trigger it's really good. My problem really is with the pacing of the games, when you are going to offer only 2 choices it would make sense that you wouldn't saturate the game with quest that end in Paragon or Chaotic Stupid. It would really add to it if I didn't have to think that for the 20th time I have to push one of 2 buttons to save one archetypal element that will help define my character's outlook on the world.

My best friend; and I don't use that term lightly, used to hang with what we used to denominate as "balseros" meaning those who arrived into the country by raft boats or any wannabe Hispanic gangster that speaks with a Scarface accent and can quote the movie from memory. I immediately grouped him with his associates disregarding him as just another of them, until during one conversation he was having in class he spoke German. So that same day we actually struck conversation we found out a mutual love of Rammstein and seeing as he had none of their albums with him next day I delivered my entire Rammstein collection (all their albums). Turns out that the guy is a heck of a history buff (now his career) one of the smartest people I know and has a wicked sense of humor. So when I tell you to take a chance it's because there's a chance it will pay off for the rest of your life and at worst you only look like ass for 5 seconds of it. Seems like a fair deal.

You do know that Cervantes is to the Spanish tongue what Shakespeare is to English, whom I assume you also think that it's overrated. Anyways if you want a good read in Spanish I would recommend Lorca, Borges and Allende. You really can't go wrong with those guys, I'm particularly fond of Borges, from lunatic to lunatic.

The concept hardly remains the same, which is why classical warfare is just a small part of the curricula in military colleges, pretty much how "History of Physics" may get you a credit or two if that's what you are studying. The concept of enlightening a people by means of "cultural assimilation" is not quite so simple, either. The Romans believed that was the way to go, and while it ostensibly worked, they failed to realize that Roman culture would be changed, in turn. Arguably, the West is in a prime position since they already have their own Middle Eastern cultures due to immigration because of which their own culture its faced with change. I never said that it would be simple but it seems to yield the most effective solution with the least amount of bloodshed.

So then we should assume that none of the old strategies would work because they are outdated, but they still study them because the concept remains the same. If we can adapt it to the new state of the world, its a very a very viable option. Also I had something in mind more along the lines of propaganda and police state

Welcome to the jungle it gets worse here every day Ya learn to live like an animal in the jungle where we play. You'll adjust. That's precisely what I'm worried about. I have no intention of going native <sic>. First chance I get I shall hive off a team and go Colonel Kurtz. Or you could take a chance and try to jolt that dynamic, see who really is a drone and who is only stuck there but a really is decent person underneath. This was pretty much my day, eventually I just gave up and went with RoadKill Is that any good? I've never used it. I'm trying to keep most of my stuff in standard Max option because I always have to outsource to render farms which are incompatible with a lot of plugins, but apparently RoadKill is a standalone app or something? I'm currently using XRayUnwrap to make the whole texture mapping thing less annoying, but it's still a pain. Is a very simple program, if you are familiar with Maya then you won't have much trouble adapting to the controls and it does in 5 mins what takes 15 on max. No kidding, I unwrapped a character in 5 mins. It's very easy to use. The one problem It has is that if you try to load the UVs onto another model it gives funky results, but I hear that its max problem.

Do you want to vent?

I have said this before in conversations but that's probably going to be harder than it seems. So far this industry is under tight control by publishers and with literally thousands of people waiting to get a job within, they can afford to fire and blacklist a few troublemakers. It may be a bit cynical to assume that their intentions are selfish but I've never seen them crying over the working conditions or even try to oversee that their workers are being treated fairly.

With the difference that a movie company makes an additional buck after the movies has left the theaters with DVD/BluRay sales, and then there's selling the movie rights to TV channels. Maybe if Video Game publisher's became more savvy like that there would be alternate sources to finance a game other than direct revenue and they would charge 60 freaking bucks.

Only if it's romanceable Kidding aside the worst part it's that somewhere in the BioBoards someone has already used Fable 3 as an example of sex on multiplayer.

I am not talking about ethics here since it's a lose-lose situation (like every other ethical problem) It's just a practical matter of them not being able to evolve since their status quo actively works against it. The only way to put an end to this it's through winning their hearts and minds; we already are relative and sympathetic to their view, it's time to shove ours down their throats until they see our way and can at the very least respect it without any flaring animosity. Heck I would be okay if they only stopped from pursuing their own Christians and women. It's precisely because we are not rioting when they burn our flags that the differences in our culture are evident, even the post 9/11 incidents of anti Muslim sentiment can't really compare to theirs. If we were able to actually converse and acknowledge when others are right despite any fundamental differences or how shattering it may be to our mental frames, then there would be no need for war. But as they will not; by their own volition, change then it is up to us to educate them. Throughout history the only way to do this was for the weaker culture to be absorbed into the greater one, because of American culture has spread through globalization it is a half won war. The only thing remaining is sending the right message and repress any unrest it may cause. You know from listening to you I get the feeling that you haven't seen this side of war too much. All wars go through this and this one is no exception, the mental exhaustion coupled with the stress and lack of leadership (or the wrong kind) will ultimately result in insubordination. Which when the flight or fight response its an all time high translates to the usual events.What they actually teach you to cope with taking a human life is to dehumanize them, what they don't teach you it's how to remain human.

Probably so, but intent has to be taken into account since Afghan willfully try to incite and offend the West and we only have to exist to offend them. I don't think that this was a deliberate attempt to cause injury to the Muslim community. But quite frankly I'm tired of waiting for them to come around, the only sure fire way to educate savages is through cultural integration, so just conquer the **** out of them already.

Says the pervert who keeps posting pictures of skinny half-naked girls. On his defense 99.9% of women in games are half-naked; if they did a KOTOR 2 remake now, Kreia would have a tank top.

So they can burn our flags but get angry if we do the same to their Holy book. You know what let's just bomb these mothers out already.

I tried that until I realized that assault rifles on the ME universe have the same range as the snipers..in other words I got my ass shot

Watched Fight Club and V for Vendetta on AMC. Funny that they would pick such an anarchist lineup for president's day, a coincidence if you believe in them.

Well that's what you get when your writers hate games and love fanfiction.
