I've cleaned the thread a little bit, and I've reopened it. I've done this mostly because I find that expecting people not to append their arguments in a debate with useless insults is not entirely unreasonable. So don't do it. Carry on, and we'll be watching.

I ****ing hope not. That's so annoying. Screw realism. If there's no gameplay difference between a lethal and a non lethal takedown, the choice becomes essentially meaningless.

It's a classic, actually.

Many North Korean soldiers have fake wooden guns. North Korea wouldn't give America any real trouble in a war (any more than Afghanistan or Iraq at least) - it'd be the massive influx of refugees to surrounding countries which would cause massive trouble (and be massively destabilising). That's not in America's interest, and it certainly isn't in China's, South Korea's, Russia's, or Japan's. I suppose there's the risk that North Korea could get off a single nuke, but from what we've seen so far that risk is low, and they'd probably manage to miss any densely populated areas. North Korea's relative strenght lies in their missile capabilities and in their intelligence services. Besides, modern conflicts are only rarely decided through conventional warfare.

Good old meta.

Yeah, but North Korea would give the US actual trouble in a war, and furthermore isn't sitting on a bucket-load of oil, or run by a bunch of Muslims.

His Bioshock review was completely spot on, despite the fact that he was being overly critical.

Tthat wasn't why the US attacked, and even if it happened to be, it's not like the Iraqis were rolling out the red carpet in welcome. Besides, if Bush's governemt really wanted to get rid of dictators, they would be invading half the known world, starting with Saudi Arabia.

Big love goes out to Mr. Lazenby.

What if it's a redhead?

Who, in the US, would be willing to receive an item through snail mail, and then post it to me?

That's pushing it. I liked The Witcher a lot, but his criticisms of the combat, the generic, "collect 10 of these", quests, and all the running around back and forth were very valid.

Mortal Kombat "Tournament" . http://www.collegehumor.com/video:1925555 "We don't use the R word in front of Goro."

Harry Potter is mostly bad.

The mute button on the remote control is broken and we have really thick walls?

If you do a non-lethal takedown, do your enemies get up again, a while later?

^popcorn.

Up also went a bit bland and rote in its plotting after the house arrived in South America, regardless of the perfection of that first sequence. My point being that I'd be willing to bet that what sold the movie to the millions that went to see it was the by-the-numbers adventure part and not the sweet, beautiful, sad and wonderful part. Incidentally, a similar thing happened with Wall-e which took a nosedive after the little guy left the planet. Also, Ice Age, or Madagascar, or whatever made millions and millions of dollars, despite being a lot worse than everything Pixar ever made, including Cars. Popularity simply isn't the best gauge of quality, even if the two are often times related.

Guilt.

Play.com generally has better prices, and free delivery to Europe.

I'm watching Pushing Daisies, right now, and it's awesome.

STALKER Complete already includes and supersedes Float32. And, while I haven't tried Oblivion Lost, I'd guess it doesn't interfere with Complete as it changes different things. EDIT: except for sky textures and weather....

That's way, way overpriced. I have the 120GB version of this and, through EBay, only set me back 200€. It's awesomely brilliant, reads about every format under the sun and has the best touch screen I've ever used.

Hippie? He is on record as saying simulated murder gives him a hard on and he cares nothing for any casualties on the victorious road to socialist heaven. I know hippies. My parents were hippies. Mr Meshugger, LoF is no hippie. Confusing Jesus with LoF is pretty hilarious.
