  1. I always saw the 9th amendment as a way to protect minorities against a tyrannical consensus. Whilst marrying may itself not be a right the "pursuit of happiness" is listed as an unalienable right on the Declaration of Independence and as such is one of the founding ideals of the US. The argument against gay marriage has always been a theological one, made by people who supplant morality with religion. There is no legal reason to deny same sex marriage. Hopefully, it will stay this way and Democracy won't get in the way.
  2. There is already a thread dedicated to the modding of Alpha Protocol. So far it's mostly textmodding and trying to patch issues.
  3. It looks like every other generic creature from a JRPG, which is probably what DA is turning into. Maybe that's the reason they're making everything Mass Effect? Pity. What about their set goals and vision for DA being the successor of BG. I wish
  4. There is a right to the pursuit of happiness and to self direction. Also under the ninth amendment protects anyone's right from being taken away by a majority consensus. As for the judge's bias, only a gay judge will actually approve of this. It is an obvious bias but still a correct decision.
  5. Actually it should keep the hardcore fans from screaming "heresy", plus knowing Del Toro this is a perfect fit since both the story and the director are very visual.
  6. None of those are reasons to deny gays marriage.
  7. I watched a segment of "Through the Wormhole" and found it to ... and handwavey to the point of silliness. That's pretty much true of all particle physics, isn't it? No. Schr
  8. So i'm thinking this is the first time you guys seen performance art. This kind of bull has been running around for a while now and don't blame America, the rest of the world is in it too. Suffice it to say that I was an fine arts major and changed career because I didn't want to hang around with these freaks.
  9. Couldn't you had said that before I went and bought a cow?
  10. the only difference between action-rpg and plain rpg is the number of mouse clicks. if in traditional rpgs you click your mouse once to make your character kill something, in action-rpgs you click once for each action, hence the prefix. everything else is the same. today the "action" part is there to sell the game better. I like both and don't care whether it's ARPG or RPG, because you still can't jump in any of 'em What about console RPGs what do you click there? I though that the difference was the focus on real time action rather than strategy. I actually prefer ARPGs, but DA I know to be a CRPG and I like the game's core mechanics. Now it's just turning into another ME game which is a disappointment since DA's story are much better and more worthier of focus than a change in mechanics.
  11. It would be a damn shame if you couldn't own a Canadian. Dibs on Bioware
  12. There's very little consensus on what specifically is a "CRPG" or an Action RPG. Personally I consider games like Morrowind, Mass Effect, and Oblivion RPGs. They are RPGs; Action RPGs
  13. Those are action/RPG not CRPGs.
  14. Can you remember which show or what the general subject was about?
  15. There isn't such thing as non-physical, if you are referring to something that can't be measured it would make more sense. Not a religious issue and consciousness not necessarily resides on the brain. If consciousness is just a series of synapses between neurons then the information that they produce is just energy and consciousness is made up of it. Both point 2 and 3 are not mutually exclusive, since if point 2 is true still doesn't explain how is the brain able to form concise ideas out of synapses. If we look at the brain as a computer and synapses being the binary code, still a code is necessary. Which is not a form of energy. Although we could go the gnostic highway and tell that is an in between the physical realm and the other one.
  16. Of course I can say that "you aren't a real gamer cuz you like farmville" these are the lowest kinds of games that set no level, a gamer may be amused by it but not made. That's like saying that you are "cinemaphile" because you watched "Baywatch:the movie" I think that the medium of these kinds of games (the internet) is really what drives them and not their quality. It's very comfortable to have a readily available game for when itch hits you, just to go to one site and have that game you want at your hands immediately. That's why a lot of the market has moved and this isn't necessarily the end of hard copies, specially since they give you a sense of ownership.
  17. There was a plot twist? Other than , which didn't really surprise me, I don't recall any.
  18. You are forgetting that the American music market is a smug little bitch that won't bother with the same thing twice. Even if they have one hit on the States there is absolutely no chance for a follow up, basically because the America demands constant attention from an artist. Although they could market them as the Korean Spice Girls
  19. God, I hope not. That whole pre-alpha look is not even fit for a dreamcast game.
  20. Strange though, that the Bio boards aren't ablaze as one'd expect it to be if there were even the slightest rumour about this. That said, over-the-shoulder or top-down doesn't make a difference to me, I'm more concerned whether the fighting is against the same level-scaled mobs over and over again. That's probably because the BioBoards are full of the post-ME biofans. CRPGs simply require isometric view, how am i gonna see Leliana surrounded by Darkspawn otherwise?
  21. I see myself in the future; not buying DA2
  22. Yet that song is now only ever played in English. Go figure. And is only played on English speaking countries?
