  1. Next on their to do list: "Save Bioware from themselves telethon" If they reach the mark they will do good games again.
  2. Wow, it took them 2 games to make him gay. I gotta commend them on their self control, as i'm sure that the Phoenix armor was scrapped from an earlier gayer design and they are only making Shepard as the writers intended on the first place. Really BW is taking this gay friendly thing a bit too far.
  3. Say something about Christianity, it's been a while since I talked Biology.
  4. Plus there is no game over when they die, just a new avatar.
  5. Maybe Sega should had bought off the reviewers like everyone else does these days.
  6. It's more art in video games, not video games as art. Which is why ME2 (have you seen some of the concept art for that?!) is on the list, and torment with it's palette of 64 shades of gray isn't. Ok, that explains it.
  7. There is no way for one person to determine whether his own self-awareness is true or false. So there is no other choice but to accept your self-awareness as true. If you understand the nature and cause of your actions then you really are aware. We are capable of knowing why we behave the way we do, we can look on a crappy day and see were it all went wrong. The deal here is understanding that your own volition it's under your control and however you react to the deterministic universe is your choice. Buddhism is a lot like Stoicism when it comes to ethics, huh?
  8. I'm a pirate ninja instructor. In my spare time I do legal research for the Brazilian ladies' beach volleyball team, when I'm not test-driving Ferraris. And I'm Buddha.
  9. Believability, most other mediums have shining examples of how a piece of work can influence a whole movements. Those are sort of games that we should be focusing on, the unsung hero who first used "X" feature but nobody ever played or cared to find. I don't want a popular games made by fanboys on the Smithsonian, I want games with actual value to the genre despite popularity.
  10. Chances are that it's going to become more sophisticated, Solitaire still going at it because of housewives. Never underestimate their power.
  11. It means that Time and Space are real but your senses deceive you. There you go, problem solved, that's what Maya is: the Illusion of the senses. I will be giving out Enlightenment to everyone this afternoon, Buddhism 0 Obsidian 1 Next!
  12. If they are going to do something like this the least they could do it's give merit to games that actually contributed to the industry. Not the top 20 fan favorites, specially considering that there is an enormous amount of bias. Amazing, even the Smithsonian treats a video game exposition as something banal.
  13. That would presume that the shared consciousness of our super ego is something that everyone it's constantly aware of. I don't think that there is any chance for people to take control of the movements since for the last 500 years they have been mostly reactionary. Thus making it only possible for people to migrate in large scale from the idealized to the imperfect. It's not optimism, right now we have been conditioned into the current beauty model which has changed. In the past 40 years we have gone through a lot changes regarding the public's view on beauty, we have gone from manly, hairy Burt Reynolds to baby faced Taylor Lautner. Although we have become more inclusive as a result of globalization, and the overexposure of starlets. The reason for the current obsession with idealized symbols is the contrasting reality, we seek the
  14. The worst has come to pass, this it's truly the beginning of the end. LoF has mated and spawned offspring.
  15. This is probably the first time i'm going to agree with LoF, a lot the censored material it's due to ignorance. Plus there it's a lot of double standards when it comes to both censorship and drug regulation. I would say that censorship it's unnecessary and should be taken with a standard, which we don't have. I think the solution will reach itself eventually, What you say it's true, not that we should seek a puritan society where none of us think about sex. Most likely we should get rid of the double standard of being the biggest porn consumer and have such puritan views regarding the subject. Namely we should grow up. I think that's another think that eventually will sort itself out, we tend to have reactionary views to whatever doesn't fit or scheme of things. A series of people who don't fit in the idealized model are eventually find their way to whatever reactionary movements begin, considering that most of us are imperfect the balance of power will change to include more realistic models. Because after an ideal image, the only way to go it's to the opposite. Yeah, I believe in free speech. What I don't believe is in corporations being treated as an individual, and as such they should be closely regulated. Not just by the FCC but held to a higher intellectual standard. Or at least a program set to help the really good networks to survive without selling out (RIP the Tube )
  16. :shocks him with a cattle prod: Good morning!
  17. Are you implying that Diablo 2 did something wrong? My very first char's best item was a lvl16 unique dagger.....at lvl 30. And it was leagues better than anything I had before, so yes, IT DID. Plus it was a paladin. YOU KNOW HOW STUPID A PALADIN LOOKES ZEALING WITH A DAGGER? It's your fault if you don't know how to use the Horadic Cube, or just plain go into a store and buy something better.
  18. Gamers are not artists, that would be like asking a blind man if a movie is art.
  19. Are you implying that Diablo 2 did something wrong?
  20. It's gay family friendly. Really now, being a prude it's a choice and it's something being imposed on our society.(with an hypocritical double standard) We shouldn't take it so far as to start chopping the penises off statues again.
  21. Found this while doing some research (basically I just googled nightshape's quotations and ran into this) http://blogs.suntimes.com/ebert/2010/04/vi...ver_be_art.html
