It runs very well on my PC in Firefox.

we're in the same world. PM'd ya.

I'm in.

I bought it and barely played it. Waste of money, really...

He's Belgian, actually.

That's a great idea, and I believe it's very feasible.

Like Gorth says, Obsidian only owns the Icewind Dale assets, as opposed to the actual license.

My vote goes for the Death Star

I played a bit of FFXIII on the 360 and it was pretty ba your average Final Fantasy experience. Move forward in a very tight corridor; close your eyes and hold A when attacked.

Today I saw the following: The Hurt Locker - Doesn't really say anything particularly interesting about war, but manages to present us with a couple of great characters. The acting is great, especially by Anthony Mackie, and the direction really succeeds in maintaining things tense during the missions. Also, the film handles death very well. All in all, pretty damn good. The Men Who Stare at Goats - It felt like a fairly dumb guy found some great material for a story, managed to recognize it as such, and then proceeded to waste it. It has its moments of humor and a great cast but it was still uninspired. The Fantastic Mr. Fox - Made outstanding by the writing of Roald Dahl, while reminding me why I like Wes Anderson so much. The soundtrack was great, the art direction was great, the impressive cast does a very, very nice job and the pace was top notch. A lot of fun.

Way to misinterpret what I said.

Israeli leadership would have to be really, really naive to believe that.

They would gain martyrdom. From my understanding, there is no greater sacrifice than sacrificing yourself for the jihad by taking out the enemies of Allah. If Iran got nuclear weapons, it would not surprise me for them to use such terrible weapons against Israel regardless the consequences. They would sacrifice their nation if it means to remove a nation that is, in their view, an enemy of God. You have to understand that the political leadership of Iran isn't quite as keen on martyrdom as the general ignorant fundamentalist Muslim. They are leaders because they like power and want to keep it, not because they're trying to achieve moral victory against "evil".

Florence. Prague. Istanbul. This would only be awesome if they recreated the actual cities, though.

Keep in mind that best here is still pretty bloody awful. FFVII has no real gameplay to speak of, and the plot and writing are suicide enducing.

I cannot possibly agree with that assertion. If anything the 1920s were about forging the foundations of intellectualism, anti-patriotic fervour and pacifism. Anti-patriotic fervour? No. Politically, the first half of the 20th century in Europe, including the 1920s, was all about ultra-nationalistic fervour. That tendency was only reversed by the massive carnage that Europe saw in WWII, which eventually led to relatively peaceful, non aggressive political stances all over Europe.

Marion Cotillard standing up for herself.

Nothing wrong with Oner's post from where I'm standing.

Highlights among the already booked groups: ALICE IN CHAINS BOBAN I MARKO MARKOVIC ORKESTAR FLORENCE + THE MACHINE JACK JOHNSON MOT

Trust me, that'll be the best investment you'll make in 2011! Oh, yes!

Considering Hollywood picks the winner, it's no surprise that winning an Oscar opens a lot of doors.

I don't know whether she deserved it or not as I haven't seen the movie. However, the point is that she didn't win the Oscar because her performance deserved it, she got it because she has a long Hollywood career, the movie was a schmaltzy human interest story, because she played a character against type, and because the other four nominees were never going to get the Oscar this year. Two of them didn't get it because they had won it already and the other two didn't get it because they are too young and the Academy usually feels that in those cases the nomination is recognition enough.

That's about a perfect example of the decisions that made the Oscar a bit of a ridiculous award.

^Hurley is missing from that list.
