You mean like those squids that live on the bottom of the ocean feeding from bacteria living in the exhaust of underwater volcanoes?

Even with freedom of information the public needs to be actively seeking the sources; specially since media outlets are also biased towards a political position or just in search of ratings. Which in modern age is not viable means for many people, so it's through the filters of the media outlets that information is massively distributed and how public perception is dictated. So in a place where people relinquish their freedom to choose thought for themselves, what good will do; to democracy, freedom of information? But I digress from the point; Joseph Bloggs MP/ Representative/ Senator/ President/ Prime Minister is also a person with a right to privacy. What concerns us is strictly in regards to the government position he runs, not the personal details of their lives. Which has been the main focus of the WikiLeaks debate on the media, and has been the only information we have scrutinized in the last 20 years from our public servants. You make all information available and its bound to be abused by people with the means to propagate it.

One of the tenets of the Bill of Rights was the right to privacy, it seems at odds with absolute freedom of information. Executive oversight should really care over matters of what information is allowed to the public. I don't believe that Asange with his anti-american agenda cares one bit about democracy, I may be wrong but the guy seems a little on the extreme. We are talking about a guy who didn't have second thoughts about this leak and what damage it could do and the least that they could do is be objective about it; which they are not.

So? Maybe it's part of a national effort to promote procreativity in the population. I hear they are having massive problems with the couples department. I thought it was the opposite given that their apartment complexes have been given the unoffical name of "rabbit warrens".. On average the age of marriage is 30 and there are a lot of women who go into it being virgins. I'm not sure about the numbers but last I heard they were having trouble with national sex drive. If you know what I mean

By itself it's hard to guess, with our backing it is a certainty. We can basically do the Bay of Pigs thing, promise support encouraging them to start a revolt and back out as soon as the wind blows the wrong way. Just the promise of American backing would be enough for an organized resistance to act.

Because he is referring to unknown indie games which need to be promoted. One of piracy pros is that it reaches a wide audience and it's a risk free way for games to reach them, for indie developers this means recognition and a chance to be picked by one of the big publishers.

tsk tsk, hair of the dog in the morning mate. Best cure. so true my friend...but only if I had some. I'm beginning to think I must be getting old. My hangovers last all day now, and I keep forgetting what I'm doing. Idea: have tattoo which reads "Reminder: be awesome." and underneath it: "P.S: stretch me."

Anyone else going to the Neocon rally?

Speaking of which, don't you think it's weird that they are taking tough action on D&D, but not the endemic violence in the US system? Violence it's as American as apple pie on the other hand comics, rock & roll, PnP and video games are commie pastimes. Really, whenever you talk about the US system you must remember that its the US system, rationale its not what we do best. Deflecting and keeping the public's attention on new threats while they become desensitized to the real problems, is our forte.

Plot thickens, mayhap we are watching a revolution in the making.

Sorry I'm a Yank, but it's this one Marcus Mumford Please tell me there's a prize involved So there is an actual Mumford and the rest are his sons? PS. I'll send you a coupon or something.

It's Japan, tentacle rape is pretty tame over there. I'm glad they are doing something close to normal Edit: What is it with this woman and shower scenes, all sexified and moving her hand slowly across her glistening wet skin. Can't she bathe like normal people?

Been playing frequently here in the States BTW any brit here knows which one is Mumford?

tsk tsk, hair of the dog in the morning mate. Best cure.

It's for the best, playing D&D on prison ranks just below dropping the soap on the "things that get you raped" list.

Reach out and touch me? *plays Tainted Love* :bat: Reach out and touch me....Tainted love?!!! Soft cell is not Depeche Mode and Tainted love is not Personal Jesus.

Funny enough, this week I went through the Hero's Journey on my game developing class. Kind of a Deja Vu to see it pop out now. PS. they should really try to downplay their own bias. Tearing NV an new one and promoting a crappy online game just makes them the hipster equivalent of the gaming community.

You have successfully reminded me of how much my life didn't used to suck, thanks!

Yay, it's good that they are doing this. Now when the jealous americans decide to nuke them, they will all be in the same city.

Sorry I'm with Syraxis here, it's really hard to shake off crazy. BTW if you are going to don't give a real address, or introduce her to you friends, or give her your phone number, and for god sake's don't let her know your last name.

Saw Red and The American Red: The American:

Maybe not, since they are obviously going for an action hybrid. I'll hold my opinion until I see the "strategy" parts of the gameplay, or if it will be all mindless button crunching.

It is inevitable.
