  1. Hell, why wouldn't they? The world is filled with idiots; present company excluded of course.
  2. The economy its bad all around, I would guess that recreational drug consumption has dropped forcing them to focus on other avenues. I need to get confirmation on this but with an emergent market in South America that money could well become legit (I know of Brazil for sure but not the rest) Even if not, with more investors and developed countries taking an interests its going to be in the top priorities of those governments to guarantee a safe environment.
  3. Kidnapping rings are already common in South America, particularly in Venezuela. I'm actually a bit amazed that the cops aren't wearing a more heavy duty armor (no wonder he got shot through the vest) bit of reminder for everyone, the kingpin who organizes all those "poor" people doesn't live poverty. Plus there is a great deal of distance between necessity and viciousness, thugs seem partial to the latter. Hell... kidnapping is a huge issue in Mexico. Yeah...Venezuelans are prettier, therefore I'm more concerned. Plus I have a friend that's a Venezuelan exchange student and I get a bit concerned when she travels back to her home.
  4. True but the difference between regular grinding and MMO grinding its that with regular the rewards are evenly planned. With MMOs is all about the gear it to win it or some other scam.

  6. Nah, the difference is there's an ocean in between. The fact that Americans built a wall to keep their southern neighbours out, should tell enough how they would deal with muslims. so, the US built a wall to keep southern neighbors out? HA! new mexico gots a spanish-speaking population of over 47%. california and texas is both having more than 1/3 population o' native spanish speakers. the US is the country with the second largest number o' hispanic residents in the world. no other country in the world has as many total immigrants from all countries as the United States has immigrants from Mexico alone. 11% of all living people born in mexico live in the US. if the US gots some kinda pervasive animosity directed at its southern neighbors, they gots a funny way of showing it. border protections (not a wall) is to stem the tide o' ILLEGAL immigration. duh. HA! Good Fun! The US is often divided down the middle on it's issues (not to say always) so you get both the support, understanding and bigotry, animosity. But the case with the Mexicans is that they have good geographical location (them bastards) and have settled in. Immigration in the US eventually ends up with communities of a particular ethnicity and the country adopting some of the customs.
  7. Ahh, the glorious remnants of the British empire.
  8. Saw Blitz today, nothing otherworldly. It's kind of a meh film, not bad but not all that either although I have to say that I love Crime films set in England and Statham plays the bad cop part to a T.
  9. Do not give up hope, we may yet see the game... In 12 years.
  10. True, maybe we should just hang out naked to avoid suspicion.
  11. That's the most awesome moment yet. You know I'm really hoping that they go head to head, because the characters are similar in many aspects, I specially like the flashback in "Hermanos" and how he was the "Jesse" in the equation.
  12. I had the same issue but trust me it gets insanely better around episode 4 and 6 is the defining moment of the season (it was so awesome). It was a little bit of a build up waiting for the characters to develop around their current situation but its playing on the tension in between Walter and Gus, I can't wait for the confrontation.
  13. He just said that because of his own bias towards the archetypes that are prevalent to the culture, like tsundere Morrigan (the irony )
  14. Where we find out how she carries our child JCDenton and that the Illuminati where behind the White Helix incident? God, I hope they don't ruin this game with DLC
  15. Dragon Age, the first western game to sell 1million+ in Japan! Funny, considering they were the guys criticizing JRPG for "having stagnated"
  16. LucasFilm and LucasArts are both corporations last I checked.
  17. There's none of that nonsense in my Dragon Age universe, at least until it is retconned by David Gaider. I wish I could say that there's none of this nonsense in my real life universe but I've been to the BioBoards
  18. I don't know. Why so many of these movie remakes with better definition fall lower than the original? Some things don't go well with new technology.
  19. I do believe that's an issue of the setting of the options offered. In DE you had to go the literal distance to get all facts on how to solve a problem, like going to the bar and finding a piece of information then moving to another area and so forth. DE:HR is narrower in that most sidequests intersect (obvious ploy to save space) and central missions are very linear in their design. You could blast your way in, sneak through a vent, or hack a door but all the time you are very aware that you're doing the same thing. As opposed to DE where the physical distance of each approach reinforced the illusion. In short DE:HR, all multiple approaches where found in the same room or very close. DE, they were more separate, developed and had more substance.
  20. I rather not see it sullied by modern engines and safe in the nostalgia goggles.
  21. Meh, it's setting up the DX1 conspiracy and IMO does it in an interesting way. I guess it's back to the DA2 argument. "Dis not epic enuff!" Agreed, although I would have liked to see more of a tie in than showing Bob Page in a few scenes or a series of scattered emails. Though it ends up becoming it's own story, with the rescue and Darrow at the end. They beautifully built a situation with lot of tension and managed it to show in game through news report, level design and sidequests. I just wish that they would had the same care(timeframe) with the conspiracy aspect of the game. Although I did get a sense of slight "epicness" leading up to the end, it just felt disconnected and lacking a build up to the climax. Again I blame this on the production time, even though they have benefited immensely from their release date.
  22. So in short peer pressure works because it puts you out your comfort zone and expands your view. Don't know if that's worth getting paddled on arse. Or worse, in the arse. Krookie:(i'm just having fun at your expense I seriously don't know what goes on fraternities, I don't think it will be horror movie bad but don't expect a bed of roses either)
  23. Or we could get a Star Wars hardcore nerd that's displeased with the blu rays and is a sniper on the marines to do it for us. .... And we shall call him Oswald.
