  4. Eh, we've been poking fun of our own politicians for years. Look at how Spitting Image did it back in the 80's. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R1jY5fYjV-U&index=19&list=RD8F8HwVcqH8g https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0v9A2D1QBe4&feature=youtu.be&list=RD8F8HwVcqH8g
  5. And above all else, remember... :
  6. What? They decided they didn't want the monarchy, so they went ahead and created their own brand of aristocracy and complain when they aren't nice. Besides, if you can't poke fun at politicians and would-be politicians regardless of which country they happen to be from, what's the point of life?

  10. As I remember they also had a rather intense gay love scene in it. The reason being, when they were shopping it around and got questioned on those elements, they'd actually know if people had read it or not and could then decide to work with people who cared enough to fully read a script not just the synopsis.

  12. I've been playing through DE: Human Revolution the Director's Cut. First time I've actually sat down to see how it shapes up with the tweaks and all. The Barret fight was definitely a nicely re-done thing, unfortunately the rest weren't that great. Nothing really noticeable with Federova's, and while the map for Namir's fight has been extended and gives you more options in the way of potential hacking or stealth, the frantic pace of his attacks tend to limit you from noticing it the first time around. At least until he's dead and then it's all "Oh, I could have used that." I will say that if you run it with the Documentaries turned on, there are quite a few interesting tidbits on how and why things came to be in the game. Although there does seem a rather running theme of "we had this sketched out" or "half the map was done" or "this was planned for x.." only to have to be cut , dropped, or merged with something else due to time constraints. In fact a couple of the odd glitches in dialogue happened because the final passes for the writing team were done and then things got slightly altered on level design and things get shifted around, and not everything was tidied up and followed through on. Although now I'm a wee bit frustrated, got to about 10 minutes from the end of the game and now I keep crashing out due to a memory error, then finding my save won't load so I have to re-load from about 20 minutes before.. only to have it crash around the same point. I shall have to ponder on this.
