  1. Doing balancing, tweaking the lighting, waiting for SEGA to set a new release date, according to the interviews. You know whats a shame (spart from not being able to create a custom face of course) is that as good a company SEGA are for delivering qaulity consoles and games, there marketing tactics/timing is terrible. Alpha Protocol could end up being one of the best games of the year, but barely anyone is going to buy it because of the release of Red Dead Redemption. Instead most are going to come across it when its on sale for
  2. So your argument is that we knew about it and did nothing to stop it, therefore all those dead are on our heads. There is a difference in being a bystander not wanting to be drag into a war and a murderer that indiscriminately kills thousands. I'm amazed that you didn't mention Pinochet.
  3. Arguably this change started two-three years prior to FISTFUL OF DOLLARS as Michael Carras' 'Savage Gun aka Tierra brutal introduced a different take on the American tradition often considered the prototype for the Spaghetti Western. A British-Spanish coproduction it featured a anti-hero gun-for-hire (played by Richard Basehart) and was the first to use Almeria, Spain as its location (where many Spaghetti Western films were made). That said Fistful of Dollars clearly is what popularized a particular type of western in Europe and changed how the US saw and made westerns (although, even there people like Sam Pekinpah had began changing the western in the US famously fighting both US TV and film producers in the late 50s and early 60s) I love how you know all these movie facts, you must be a movie trivia champ. There is usually one that's the true innovator and one that popularizes the concept. While we are on the westerners subject, I wouldn't mind seeing a few remakes of obscure spaghetti western movies. 3:10 to Yuma was a pretty decent movie, we should get them to do Django.
  4. Well.. that could actually work. A rundown school with two main "cliques" .. the lone transfer student who gets moved in and starts to manipulate the social events... A Fistful of Dollars was inspired by Yojimbo which was in turn inspired by a novel that was set in a prohibition era town in New Mexico... So technically the version that Bruce Willis and Christopher Walken did that was inspired by Fistful of Dollars..... was closer to the original concept.. Maybe it was, but they didn't have Akira Kurosawa directing and starred Toshiro Mifune. Plus Fistful of Dollars reinvented the good gunfighter image from the cut clean law abiding (completely unrealistic) to the now more popular scruffy morally grey but good guy. That, and I can't see Christopher Walken without thinking of cowbells.
  5. Was it deliberate, like the purges? Answer is no, your argument is invalid.
  6. That actually begs the question... how representative is he of the general public's gaming skills at large? =/ speak for yourself Are you stating that you are an accurate representation of the general public's gaming skill then? Not sure why you felt compelled to respond when it's easy to infer that 213374U was not referring to you. I'm part of the general public, I'm I not?
  7. They removed it, Youtube is really anal these days. Anyway, unless they do a 180 I see them going down this road. Their last two AAA releases didn't met expectations and with the amount of money spent on promotion I say that's a significant loss.
  8. Now I really gotta ask what they were doing all these months, if you can't even change Thorton's face.
  9. So? Shepard has a canon face but there is still the option to create your own. I'm not asking for much, just some textures that don't make beards look so fake.
  10. I'm okay with the face model, but the baby doll skin is a bother. Is it really to hard to add some pores there?
  11. We haven't had hurricanes for 3 years almost and may I add that winter down here is just 2 months before we go back to scorching heat and prayers for rain.
  12. That seems a little to advanced, specially since this game is not made for modding in the first place. Something like that would take a lot of programming skill and time, that would narrow it down to a few willing individuals. Most likely a scar mod customization ME style.
  13. I don't know for sure but I think that there isn't a control group.
  14. Or a scar? Well, I'm sure that someone will come up with something, even ME had mods.
  15. Jamie Foxx (born Eric Marlon Bishop) took his stage surname as tribute to comedian Redd Foxx (born John Elroy Sanford) who in turn took his stage surname from Jimmie "The Beast" Foxx, Philidelphia Athletics/Red Sox 1st Baseman from 1936-1942 I'm so into you
  16. If I can't get a better looking complexion for his skin, I'll just mod it in or something. I really can't stand Mike's plastic face. Please share.
  17. maybe i was doing it wrong but i spent probably 60 hours on that game and was still getting owned by regular enemies in the later parts. hitting end bosses for 3 damage.... not my idea of easy. I'm no rpg pro, but games like ff6 are easy as pie and vagrant story was hard as hell Then you should try the Last Remnant, the only game where you could have 999999 HP and die. True story.
  18. Wait, you are going to put him in front of a motel? And miss the chance to put the box in front of David Blaine's hows with a big sign that reads: This is how is done, you phony! Personally I don't think that he is violating the laws of biology and physic, merely circumventing them by taking his energy input from another source. My biggest concern is that there is only one test subject to get any definite (applicable) results. Plus, even with conclusive evidence there is bound to be a lot of skepticism among the scientific community. Not that it would be a bad thing since there could be bias on part of the Indian scientist that are conducting the test.
  19. So all this extra time and the same face Maybe, because is a beta this features weren't in it. But dammit I don't want a boy toy spy!
  20. Just beat Legendary Dark Knight mode yesterday
  21. Walsh, I don't disagree with your comment but I see it from a more humanist perspective. There are scientists who through nurture or choice have a passion for a certain area of science and a unique perspective. That's their drive and motive for research, not the utilitarian sense. E.G. Einstein whilst as a kid dreamed to ride in the back of a beam of light, a dream that through his life lead him to the theory of relativity. Or like Newton, sometimes discovery is just the right person at the right place and time. However this testing is not so unfounded as it seems, there have been other instances of testing "superhumans";if you will, that have given interesting results. Wim Hof was tested by submerging his body in a tub of ice with temp. bellow 20, all the while his core temperature actually saw a rise. The final conclusion was that through meditation and control of his physiology he had an uncanny resistance to cold. Could be a similar case here, a man that has trained his body to survive from minimal amounts of energy.
