It was pretty awesome at work when, suddenly: "Who the Ff is playing Pacman?"

I've never had speed of delivery problems with UK retailers. And I've used a healthy bunch of them.

Generally, if you live in Europe, it's better to order things from UK based retailers. Be it Game, Play, The Hut, Send it or whatever. It's always cheaper. I have preordered AP from Play.com for 23 euros, myself.

Sold.

As far as I'm concerned, this guy should be treated as any other claim of inventing a perpetual motion machine.

30 Rock has some rather intelligent lines, I've always thought.

Pretty awesome, actually.

You have to add a dictionary for each language.

Frankly considering the amount of C&C Obsidian is promising, 20 to 30 hours would be amazing.

By the way about Ronaldo's national team versus club team performances, he has scored 59 goals in the past 2 seasons for his clubs. That's in 87 games. For the national team, over the same period he scored 1 goal, in a friendly against Finland, last February. That's in 10 official games and I don't know how many friendlies.

I can't say I've been following his performance with the national team, but in Real he's been carrying the team 50/50 with Higua

1. Germany 2. Villa 3. Xavi 4. None 5. Brazil 6. Definitely not Ronaldo. Rooney, probably. The African teams will all crash and burn. Portugal will get easily thumped by Spain in the second round. As for Portugal depending too much on Ronaldo, the team got the World Cup despite him, not because of him. Our real problem is the defence. Bosingwa, Pepe and Carvalho, our best defensive players, are all injured, and we don't have a proper left back.

He's JE.

Same for me on the Bioshock vs Bioshock 2 issue. Bioshock 1 was the first game I've ever pre-ordered, after decades of gaming. As for Bioshock 2, I haven't even read a preview or seen a gameplay video.

Awesome!

Moved to the appropriate forum.

Alpha Protocol Dragon Age Unreal Engine 2 (UT 2004) Now there's no need to make baseless statements filled with pointless hyperbole. In case you're wondering I didn't cherry pick these images. In fact, that AP screen was one of the first to be released.

Future-shocked? They just seemed run of the mill violent extremists. As for everyone stopping having babies isn't sci-fi at all. In fact, it's done in such a way that the cause of the infertility isn't made, in any way, explicit. It's essentially treated as magic or as an act of God.

Also, ditch Dell for crying out loud. I tried to build a core i5 system for you through their website, and it automatically limited to a bunch of dire, overpriced graphics card options.

It would be in the stricter sense that it's set in the future with higher technology than seen today. However, for me that's like saying that, for example, Annie Hall would be sci-fi if it was set in 2020s with a scene where a futuristic object makes an appearance. It's true, but it's also meaningless.

I thought District 9 was better than Aliens, so from where I'm standing things aren't quite as bad as they might appear. Sunshine was also pretty great at showing the loneliness of spaceship life. Additionally, if you were to include Children of Men in the genre (I wouldn't), it would make things look a lot more positive for the genre today. Anyway, even in the late 70s to early 80s, which I think was the best period for film sci-fi, the truly good science fiction films were pearls in a sea of crap. As for K-Pax, it was a shallow, phoned in Hollywood machine attempt at making a quirky, sappy, yet smart movie about life and belief.

K-Pax? Hah.

The country of the lazies, the blame everyone else, the wait until the last minute to do anything, the complainers, the morally and sexually backwards, the makers of good food, the discoverers of the world.
