  1. Well, his better speeches were done by an actor, he was one of the main people responsible for Gallipoli, and his stint as Chancellor of the Exchequer was a disaster. As for his support of war and criticisms of appeasement prior to the war, I really don't see how England, at the time, had any choice but to appease Germany. If they had pushed for war too early, they would have been crushed by the Germans as quickily as the rest of Europe and what good would that have done. In any case, his disdain of appeasement derived mostly from his romantic, nationalist view of England as the strong, imperialist nation of Victorian times, which had very little to do with actual fact. Oh yeah, and he was a big fan of Mussolini.
  2. I bought it yesterday, and so far it's oldschool fun.
  3. You do know that Churchill was one of the most incompetent leaders GB ever had, especially in matters of economy?
  4. It would be a very good idea to upgrade your graphics card. But maybe PES will barely work, anyway.
  5. Oh, then it's easy. Buy the cheapest 4 to 8GB MP3 player you can find. You shouldn't need to spend more than, say, 30 bucks.

    I stopped watching NBA basketball after Bird, Johnson, et al. retired. It moved from a passing game to 3 or 4 step drives to the basket. That really ruined the game for me. I always thought Utah Jazz kept the passing game going into the 90s, after the heady days of Lakers vs Celtics. John Stockton was my hero.
  7. Yeah, but how often do you want to use it? How many songs do you want keep in it at all times? Is sound quality important? Do you want to use it at the gym? Or when jogging? Is size important to you? How do you want to upload music?
  8. I don't see how anyone would advocate the creation of a communist regime, USSR style, unless they are right bastards (right and not left, geddit??), or not very bright.
  9. Yeah, no
  10. They are allowed, of course. We'll watch them closely, though. Like hawks. Like hawks on pogo sticks.
  11. That must have been a hell of a crash. The tibia is a pretty strong bone.
  12. What do you want out of it?
  13. The point is that everyone should do it willingly, and if they don't they're evil, or at least should feel guilty and suffer for their sins. Despite rejecting religion, communism is still neck deep in christian morality, like practically all western thought. If everyone wants to do it, is not coercion. See, also, why Marxism-Leninism is a load of fascist bollocks, and why Marxism is more part of a philosophical, idealist, evolutionary view of society, typical of the time, than the fascist clusterbungle that Bolshevism turned it into.
  14. I think the problem wasn't that it was dumbed down, but rather that it was too different. I'm not too sure, though.
  15. Don't JRPGs that buck a trend and try to do something new, usually get lambasted to hell and back, or fail commercially? Examples: Vagrant Story, FFVIII, FFXII. Also, the Codex tells me the hardcore Japanese are having a hissy fit over FFXIII being dumbed down.
  16. Answer the man, Jags.
  17. Aren't you playing Dragon Age?
  18. That would originate a poopstorm of epic proportions.
  19. Generally, when big CEOs and the like say "we believe so-and-so is the future", they actually mean "we believe we can take obscene amounts of your money by investing in so-and-so."
  20. Keith Flint tries to get rid of living fish in his pants while dancing. No one notices.
  21. Ok, focus on the weaker human units first, and attack one unit at a time. Use your strongest attacks. Reduce their numbers as quickly as possible. Yes, you can always leave and come back to grind a bit, but that battle should be beatable without any grinding.
  22. I can't seem to recall whether I beat that battle by focusing on the minions first or on the boss, but it's one of the two. What's your army composition? Is it just Rush and Blocter? I can't believe I have forgotten how the game starts. I must have replayed the tutorial quests three or four times.
