I have an issue with any game that strays too much from the original plot in a movie or plot. What you mentioned is like playing some game around Lord of the Rings and having Sauron come down from Mordor to arrange a picnic with the Hobbits, or rather that's more likely to happen than Little Finger bringing peace to the Seven Kingdoms

I have to say I don't find those hairstyles attractive or complementing the ladies overall appearance at all

The more relevant question is " what if you find you aren't attracted to her anymore" That won't be a problem! I have remarkably low standards! Female? Check. Over 18? Check. Alive? Check. I'm good! I like it,

Okay Melk I tried to play the famous " the issue lies with a bug in game" card to explain your frustration but it seems like you need to spend more time on the game. Sorry buddy I tried

The more relevant question is " what if you find you aren't attracted to her anymore"

I enjoy the "like" button, I do have to restrain myself from using it too much as I enjoy many comments. I also "like" a post if it makes me laugh Oh and really humorous posts I'll post a or a

Events are dependant on Attacker-Defender skills. So if your attacker have Intrigue of 20+ then expect to see treacheries, same goes for Martial. So, don't expect poor commanders to fare well against skilled opponent. The only thing I expect is the rules to apply to the computer and a certain bit of reason to be behind things and not a complete and utter random mess to everything. Which is what I experienced. @ Ros Is it possible that in Melk's game a virus effected the software code and the AI and that's why it seemed like the game was a mess? You never know.....

Okay I see what you mean, I know several Garrets. Its not an uncommon name in South Africa

What did you guys talk about? I can probably guess...you swopped stories around whose pet moose eats the most food ?

You're welcome. I'd definitely go for Hunted because Brink is more like a multiplayer experience, no decent single player. Hunted on the other hand has loot, single player, co-op and two humorous characters. Thx, Hunted it is then

Challenge.. Accepted. Since Wals hasn't had the chance to do so yet.. On second thoughts " God Save the Queen"

How do you know that less than 10 % of the people who responded are not from America? Do you know a poll was run on these forums to see where people lived and the majority of people who responded are not from America.

Its a point that's been brought up before and I have no answer for it (which is why, for now, I don't buy that Snowden was acting out of a desire to do good for "the US people"). Since a senator could have presented the evidence in the house or senate and be protected by the "Speech or Debate" clause, in theory the information could have been put out there to "protect" the US citizens without having to reveal how the information was obtained protecting Snowden. But it would have also left Snwoden anonymous, and I gather that being known was important to him. I think that Snowden has committed a serious crime against his country and he must face the consequences. But you raise an interesting question " why go public in the way he did ?" Narcissism, misplaced views on doing the right thing or a Chinese spy? I have heard several theories and I don't know what to think. I just know if he aligns himself with Wikileaks he is making an egregious mistake. Unless you like being confined in a small embassy in the UK?

Paul was cute, its funny how many people actually thought he was psychic

God Save America !!!!

http://www.getloadedgo.com/ Thanks Astiaks for this link as I think this is an excellent opportunity, anyway I will be buying Dishonored but want some input on my other game. Should I buy Hunted or Brink? I know they are totally different games but I just want views on either

You're a traitor and a Communist !!!

You've raised a good point http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/asia_pacific/ecuador-foreign-minister-says-nsa-leaker-snowden-seeking-asylum-there/2013/06/24/3e307ec8-dc84-11e2-a484-7b7f79cd66a1_story.html I think he will still end up in Ecuador. I see Assange is actively supporting him and is pushing for this. I like the way the Ecuadorian foreign minister said "There are some governments that act more upon their own interests, but we do not,” Patino said. “We act upon our principles.” He added, “We take care of the human rights of the people.” That's rich, the Ecuador government have a shocking and controversial record around human rights. What hypocrisy http://www.state.gov/j/drl/rls/hrrpt/2010/wha/154504.htm

"giving up" that's normally my decision when I get frustrated. But I want to give RTS another go so I will try CK2 as well

The income levels will vary wildly depending on location and so will purchasing power in gaming. So what? Instead of pointless whining, why don't people use Google to convert Rand or Rubles into Dollars and answer the question? Because it's not just the income level that are different but also game prices.100 euros will on average buy you much more games in Ukraine than in UK. Hence the income question loses validity when taken outside the context of US market. It doesn't really matter, so long as you know what your data means and take its limitations into account. Looking at the games market as a whole and without geographic distinction is a perfectly valid approach, so long as you don't start trying to draw location specific conclusions from it. To a point it would have been a good idea to have the location data anyway since it adds flexibility- but only to a point, it isn't essential. I have to honest I am really confused by what accurate results you can get from this survey without mentioning the country so maybe you can explain Zora because I know you are clever . Lets say 100 people answer the survey and 60 % of these people all live in Eastern Europe, they say that they only buy 2 games every month and don't trust gaming journalists. Decado has already mentioned that this survey was done for Americans only and he assumed initially only Americans would respond. At the end of the survey he looks at the 100 results and says " interesting so 60 % of the people in America who responded only buy 2 games and don't trust gaming journalists" Let me use this information as reference in my thesis or just as a general point Except those people don't live in America so this information isn't accurate?

Yeah, I don't know what to make of it. One thing I do know is that I won't be making any more predictions until I see what country he ends up in. I'm tired of being wrong

I do remember that, I also remember having to add various extra memory command lines to the original DOS command file ( config.sys ?) to get games like Kings Quest 1 working. I had fun but I prefer modern gaming where everything just works autoexec.bat LOADHIGH C:\DOS\MOUSE.COM Or something like: PATH=C:\DOS LH MOUSE.COM config.sys would look something like: DOS=HIGH,UMB DEVICE=C:\DOS\HIMEM.SYS DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE NOEMS rem DEVICE C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE RAM Was still doing this as late as the early 00s, when I had an old 486 to run my old games rather than DOSbox/GOG as is the case now. Oh yes, that's it. Well done for posting this, this is very nostalgic

You've taken some good photos, nice one I have had my own vicarious trip around the USA through your updates.
